The Left is Bereft of Heft

By Rich Kozlovich

Burt Prelutsky was a famous Hollywood writer, and in his day he was the writer that wrote one of the most popular M.A.S.H. shows ever. It was the one where a wounded pilot decided he was Jesus Christ. It was a very touching episode and has been recognized as one of the most famous. After he retired he was very active on line, even had his own newsletter, to which I subscribed. His thoughts were unendingly foundational to good thinking and common sense, especially when it came to dealing with leftists. He once said:

However, try as they might, neither side can fully explain the existence of left-wingers. For my part, I can far easier grasp the appeal of turnips and grits than I can the stranglehold that Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez and Obama, have on leftists. I mean, how is it that anyone can look at the results of communism and socialism and not see them for the nightmares they are and always have been? After all, the evidence is in plain sight.

And given he was involved with the Hollywood crowd he saw first hand their insanity, and the insanity of California voters saying:

Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we're Number One.

There's no getting around the fact that the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth'.

The four of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words. 

Then there were his views on Barack Obama:

Some of us imagined that Barack Obama couldn’t possibly have a lousier, more corrupt, circle of friends and advisors in Washington than he had back in Chicago. But is it possible that we simply underestimated the man’s uncanny ability to attract vermin? 

Burt died in 2o21, but his work had a timelessness to it.  When it comes to leftists,  if you changed the names we'd find the only thing that changed was the names.  They've never seen a burden so great they couldn't put it on everyone else's back. 

The left does not tolerate straying from the prescribed ideological position of the party; they are Maoist, Stalinist in every way.  These people are not only intolerant, they are barbaric. They actually believe, and so operate according to their creed, that their political power depends on human misery. - Patricia McCarthy
