The DNC/RNC had tossed their respective nominee's exoskeletons out into the open for the Media and Public to plaster them with lurid sensationalism and nefarious subterfuge. It will be all the way boring more of the same till election day.
So, I now return to my WASP/Chinese discourse. The Chinese Church pivots the key Chinese characteristics as expounded in my earlier post. After looking into the Church to learn about the Chinese, the next best thing to do is to examine the Policies of Lee Kuan Yew for more clues on the Chinese nature.
Lee was acutely aware of the Chinese shortfalls measured against the British traditions and values. That quality of the Brits took more than 50 generations to cultivate after the Roman Conquest of the British Isles and he knew he only had 2 generations to work with to transform Singapore. Hence, the drastic steps he had to undertake were extraordinarily revealing of the veracious nature of the Chinese.
Apart from his experiences living and studying in Great Britain, Lee benefited from the stoic and forthright examples in governing neighboring Malaya set by the various British High Commissioners up to the late 1950s.
A gallant vignette out of the History of Malaya was about the chivalrous High Commissioner Sir Henry Gurney in 1951. On his way to a meeting at a Hill Resort, his convoy was ambushed by Communist Terrorists. He knew they were after him and so he staggered out of his car to offer himself as the target. The terrorists mercilessly gunned him down and hurriedly retreated without realizing his wife and private secretary were hiding inside the car.
For a stark contrast to a modern day WASP Punk, let's take Michael Moore who looks like a fitting example.
Mike's politics made him feel supercilious to Fox News and he snubbed the Channel since 2009 after an appearance in Hannity, not surprising. But, when invited by the Kelly File this year, he was unable to resist the luscious Megyn Kelly.
Right from the word "go" as the show began, Mike was pawing at Megyn's ego by telling her insistently (in a lecherous way) she was the only one to have had put Donald Trump in his place when all 16 of his fellow contenders failed.
Mike went to all lengths. Having used Trump to bait Megyn - the baitee became bait - he touched on their common roots as Irish descendants and suggested they can emote together later after the show (leaving out poor Bill O'Reilly, also an Irish descendant).
Though Mike might take snipes at Trump and Roger Ailes, he was no different from them when ladies came into the picture.
Megyn, obviously, sophisticated in handling such situations astutely parried off the lascivious advances and firmly steered Mike back to be on message on the topic proper he came to talk about - his new film, Where to Invade Next. It was also obvious his mind was not on this topic throughout the show.
Anna Giaritelli who covered this story for the Washington Examiner is either a very generous soul or has never been hit on by a salacious gnome before. She graciously commented, "Kelly accepted the compliments, but with noticeable hesitance".
Sweet Baby Anna, Kelly was fighting off Michael Moore with Broomsticks! Watch the video again!
Free advice, Michael. Cut your hair, trim your beard, throw away that stupid cap and lose 202 pounds. Perhaps then Megyn may give you a second glance.
Otherwise, scour for an easier target like Katrina Pierson. But, don't use Trump as a bait!
Cheers Mike!
