Title: some words about the cousin's "knowledge" of history
Post by: franksolich on February 20, 2014, 07:16:22 AM
When I woke up this morning, all seemed most happily auspicious--the temperatures moderate, a slight bit of snow, with promise of the sun bestowing its gace on the Sandhills of Nebraska later.  At peace with the world and all in it, I made some coffee and went to read the cousin.

Which was probably a mistake; it backhoed the whole day.

13. There we are seeing a possible split

Between the army and the police, these are echoes of both the 1905 uprising and the Russian Revolution. (Ukraine was part of the Empire and it's bread basket)
 
In 1905 the Navy sided with the rebels. Why the Navy was never trusted by the Soviets. In 1917 the army broke for the people while the police was still breaking skulls. Army units formed the first Soviets, (people's councils). As the civil war broke the army did as well. It was between the white forces under Alexandr Kerensky and the Red Forces.
 
Piece of trivia US Forces landed in Sebastopol in support of White Forces. So yes, we technically invaded mother Russia. Oh and Kerensky died penniless in NYC in the 1920

Alexander Kerensky, leader of the short-lived provisional government in Russia--the one in between the tsar and Lenin, about six months in 1917--died a very old man in New York City in 1970, reasonably affluent.

<<<didn't even have to nadin this; knew it.

Geezuz, the cousin makes me weep in her abysmal knowledge about anything.

- - - - - - - - - -

The cousin alleges herself to be a "trained historian"--whatever that is--but throughout the years of reading her, one gets the impression she's not even knowledgeable as a litter-picker-up.

The danger is that some might find her credible in such things, because after all, she has a "Russian-sounding" last name (actually, to those of us who know things, it's a Polish-sounding last name).

Quote
.....based on a Russian History course taken in graduate school.....

^^^appears to be the extent of her knowledge of Russian history.

<<<apparently took more college courses on the history of Barbados, than the cousin ever took on the history of Russia.

- - - - - - - - - -

A digression with another piece of trivia, of which the cousin's probably not aware--Prince Yosupuffsky or whatever his name was (no, I'm not going to bother nadining it), the murderer of Gregory Rasputin in 1916, lived clear until 1976 or 1978 (again, no, I'm not going to bother nadining it)--it wasn't only the pals of Lenin and Stalin who lived to great ages.

And American forces seeking to preserve democracy in Russia (and of course, failing) landed not in southern Ukraine but in the European Arctic.  Those allied troops landing in Crimea were French, Polish, and Greek.....

<<<as an untrained historian, didn't have to nadin any of that stuff; it came right off the top of the head.

- - - - - - - - - -

The cousin makes me vomitous, alleging to know something about history.

It's like a case some years ago, where she alleged it was "obstructionist Republicans" who kept some New Deal measure from being enacted into law in 1937.

In 1937-1939, Republicans held 17 of 96 seats in the U.S. Senate and 89 of 435 seats in the House of Representatives; I don't think the Republicans could obstruct a damned thing.

- - - - - - - - - -

The cousin may get things right once in a while--such as the date of the Norman Invasion of England or the date of the Declaration of Independence--but it's always better to check with a second source.

Still want to know about that purse she carry's so close to her belt.   

Every picture I see of her had her hand bag tucked under her arm or in her lap.   Like she was protecting an infant.

Question, does she have a carry permit and is afraid some of her lib friends will find out ?

Why this shielding action of a woman's purse unless she carry's ?

The cousin's historical.

She looks like Benjamin Franklin on the old fifty-cent piece (1948-1963).

Is she the one with the thick accent???

From cousin nadin's awardment for Top DUmmie of 2013 (third place):

Quote
Okay, now sometimes sob-sisters here whine that it’s “not nice” to “make fun of” the way nadin looks.

And to a point, yes, they’re correct; it’s bad taste, and doesn’t reflect well.

However.

However.

However.

The ways in which an individual conducts himself usually determines the ways in which others see that person.  Someone who’s physically ugly but pleasant in manner successfully minimizes, or even obliterates, the physical ugliness; one doesn’t see that person as ugly at all.

A smile on any fat woman’s face evaporates about a hundred pounds of her, the way one sees her; a gentleness in her manner magically uncrosses the eyes; a comforting word softly spoken removes a garish blemish.

On the flip side of the coin, someone who’s physically ugly and has a piss-poor attitude to match, well, that exaggerates and exacerbates the physical ugliness, making one appear grotesque.

A good attitude about people and things beautifies one; a sour attitude uglifies one.

Well, as the cousin isn’t exactly known for any pleasantness, for any mellowness, for any laid-backness, for any welcoming acceptance of all those people and ideas coming her way, for any warm self-deprecating humor, for any charity and kindness (although one will admit nadin’s probably kind to animals, especially birds), for any tolerance and the admission that she’s human, fallible, well, one can imagine why people see nadin the ways they do.

It’s her own fault; if she were a more pleasant sort of person, some might even think her aesthetic.

There's plenty of less attractive people who know how to dress and act, so don't notice their looks.  However, the Dummies seem to wear their ugliness with pride, especially judging by the Klu Klux Klams threads. 

I also don't feel bad mocking people who hate me because I believe in limited government, and this belief affects their ability to mooch off others.

Oh damn.

This really makes me cringe, the cousin alleging herself to know something about history.

Now, one doesn't expect the average person to know, for example, that the English Civil War preceded the Glorious Revolution by fifty or so years, because the average person isn't that much into English history of the 17th century.

And so if the average person makes a mistaken assertion about it, it's forgiveable.

But for someone who claims to be a "trained historian," damned near Infallible, smarter than God, such a mistake wouldn't be forgiveable.

And this opens up a whole big Pandora's box--if the cousin alleges herself to know something about history, and obviously doesn't, what else is she "expert" in, that she really doesn't know shit about?

Oh, there's worse, and you'll probably see them, the longer you're around.

I am butt-ugly but my wife thinks I am good looking enough so to disparage me is to disparage her taste, which is just wrong.

I kind of photograph better looking than I am (when I stretch my neck a little to remove the waddle).

The camera sees the soul and by now I hope everyone here knows I am pretty upbeat, optimistic believer in human dignity and liberty.  I think the Universe sees it also.

I suspect that is why I have to constantly club attractive women throwing themselves at me.  

That or pheromones maybe?

:) ;)

But the camera clearly sees the deep-down mean omnipresent -- and in some cases pure evil  -- of libtards.
