Commentary: "Conflate"? And "Plain Meaning"?

How can Kellyanne Conway as a sexual-abuse survivor herself work with an self-admitted sexual abuser? There's no conflating about it. Supporting Kavanaugh and ***** is saying to her own sexual abuser, "What you did to me is okay." After all, you can't knowingly support some unrepentant sexual abusers and not support others at the same time. If you're supporting any sexual abusers with full knowledge of what they did and/or are doing, you are by extension supporting your own if you yourself were and/or are a victim of sexual abuse. Thus, an answer like the following one to a question about your own hypocrisy would be all the more inappropriate and intellectually dishonest:
"Don't conflate that with this, and certainly don't conflate that with what happened to me."
Translation: "Stop confronting me about my hypocrisy, and certainly stop telling me to refrain from revictimizing fellow sexual-abuse victims and survivors."

Meanwhile, in regard to a case that involves hypocrisy concerning non-sexual abuse—namely, "Schreiber v. McCamet et. al." (2018)

  • At least Senator Blunt did something right for once during this whole xenophobic, misogynistic, and racist ***** Era, especially since (I guarantee you that) the same ruling would not have been made had the adoptee been a White boy or any girl that ***** and *****ites would consider (forgive the language) a token—and with the Armed Forces not being keen on *****'s plan for a military parade and the adoptee in question being a South Korean and not a North Korean (let alone one whom either escaped from or somehow got special permission to leave North Korea), ***** and *****ites are likely to all the more see adoptee as useless and even detrimental to them. As for Non-White boys, for the same ruling to have been made might've actually been possible given that ***** and *****ites would likely see no value in someone whom they couldn't try to use for a "Women for *****" schtick, especially with the current events at hand—ones that certainly make female voters and to-be voters more of a target voting demographic than male voters and to-be voters.   
  • That judge basically just sent a huge (forgive the language) "**** you. I don't care about your military service" to Lt. Col. Schreiber and his family, as well as to other military families, and an "I don't care about your service" to other Armed Forces members and their families.
  • The only "plain meaning" there, then, is that the judge would've ruled to let the delayed adoption process continue to go through now had the adoptee been a 17-year-old White boy or Non-White girl whom he found useful for "MAGA" and "America First" ends, never mind that putting America first actually includes letting Armed Forces members whom have served honorably as well as been of good character adopt any child whom wants to be adopted by him or her.
Therefore, "hypocrisy" still means "hypocrisy" just as "is" still means "is" and has a definition around which nobody can get—whether whomever tries to get around it is Kellyanne Conway, a bigoted judge, or anyone else.


PPS That I wrote about whomever ***** would nominate and included the following was surprisingly prescient, especially given that I wrote what I wrote in July(!):

"Now-Former President Obama admitted his general disdain for most conservatives as well as most moderate & leaning-moderate people on all sides—and at least he, as far as I know, doesn't have any forcibly-aborted children or sexual-harassment victims in his wake."


Dr. Blasey Ford made her allegations in July, and (as I predicted) Kavanaugh is indeed a ***** sycophant and (as I unbeknownstly-to-myself predicted) fellow sexual abuser of *****. 


(By the way, Julie Swetnick's own indiscretions do not mean that she wasn't sexually abused by Kavanaugh. So, don't automatically assume that he has only two known victims in his wake.)

Update: A Not-So-Belated-After-All "Belated" Card From Reilly

PS:
  1. L'Erev Shabbat Sukkot v'Shabbat Sukkot Haba'ah Same'ach u'Mevorakh—not to mention the last Shabbat in September! Take some coffee into your sukkah with you, especially if you live in an area in which the days and nights are getting colder.
  2. "Momma" has been doing quite a few belated cards lately, since she's been busy and tired (though coffee has helped keep her awake) for only-Yehovah-ultimately-knows-what reasons (although she knows that one reason is the changing weather, which has also affected Reilly). 
  3. This is the first time that "Momma" has used Powerpoint's Design Ideas suggestions, although it was close to her original idea, anyway, and she had to modify Powerpoint's suggestion a little bit (as Picture Two was supposed to be where Picture Three is, and she thus had to move the textboxes that she created around. That's one example why "Momma" hasn't used Powerpoint's Design Ideas suggestions in the past.) 
  4. ☕ "Momma" saw "National Coffee Day" trending on Twitter on the 27th. Then a tweet that Dukin' Donuts® just sent out came up in her Twitter timeline. (Whateverevery day is Belated National Coffee Day for "Momma", and Reilly can tell that and tolerate "Momma" partly for that reason 😉!).

A Belated Birthday Card To the USAF

Happy Belated 71st Birthday to the Air Force!
PS Excuse "Momma"/"Auntie Nicole" for not  perfectly remembering the Air Force motto.

An Early Yom Kippur Card From Reilly and Camille

PS Since the sun has not set west of the EST Time Zone and some celebrate Shabbat until three stars appear in the sky, the card was technically not late ðŸ™‚.
