Can anyone here play this game?: "Can't anybody here play this game?"
According to legend, and possibly in accordance with fact, the remark was "made by New York Mets manager Casey Stengel, expressing his frustration over the team's ineptitude" in its inaugural season.
This brings us to Mike Pompeo's appearance on ABC's This Week. Below, you see a portion of the official transcript.
Pompeo spoke with a puzzled Martha Raddatz. Can anyone here play this game?
RADDATZ (5/3/20): Do you believe [the coronavirus] was man-made, or genetically modified?From there, Pompeo proceeded to deliver a speech. The speech was designed to kill a lot of time and put the whole thing in context.
POMPEO: Look, the best experts so far seem to think it was man-made. I have no reason to disbelieve that at this point.
RADDATZ: Your, your Office of the DNI says the consensus, the scientific consensus was not man-made or genetically modified.
POMPEO: That's right. I, I—I agree with that.
Yes. I've—I've seen their analysis. I've seen the summary that you saw that was released publicly. I have no reason to doubt that that is accurate at this point.
RADDATZ: OK, so just to be clear, you do not think it was man-made or genetically modified?
POMPEO: I've seen what the intelligence community has said. I have no reason to believe that they've got it wrong.
RADDATZ: And—
POMPEO: Martha, you have to put this in context...
This was an especially strange performance by Pompeo. But the same can be said of a great deal of activity from all around the political spectrum at the present time.
Changes in media technology have turned us into an array of small, highly tribalized nations. Each small nation has its own tribal story line.
We humans take over from there. We bend all points of logic and fact to adhere to our tribal line.
Can you see a way out of this mess? We're not sure we can!
Hmm, sounds like the Pompeo guy got confused.
ReplyDeleteUnless, of course, you chose to ignore some reasonable explanation of the above snippet, presented in what you call "the speech", dear Bob.
...and knowing your outstanding zombie-cult loyalty, dear Bob, I wouldn't dismiss that possibility.
Nah, I can see, dear Bob, that you didn't ignore any reasonable explanation in what followed. It was just a bunch of typical politician's bullshit.
DeleteMy apologies, dear Bob.
Beware of open upstairs windows, comrade.

“Can't anybody here play this game?"
ReplyDeleteSomerby accurately quotes and rightly ridicules Pompeo.
But it’s not clear how Pompeo’s behavior with Raddatz illustrates how Pompeo is unable to play this game. His game is obfuscation and unfounded implications.
Is Somerby saying Raddatz doesn’t know how to play the game? She asked a simple, direct question, based on an accurate reading of the DNI statement, got a contradictory response from Pompeo, then pressed him for clarification, after which he wandered off for good.
How is it apropos to bring up “both tribes do it” regarding this interview? Does Somerby really believe there are instances of liberal administration officials being as dishonest as any Trump official?
For all we know, Biden fingered Raddatz.
DeleteFor all we know, Trump fingered you.
DeleteI wish. That would be awesome. I would like to give him a rim job and then cuddle.
DeleteTrump doesn't cuddle.
DeleteIt's just a sexual fantasy I have.
DeleteI'd be more than happy to furnish you with all the details.
Delete(Yes Avenatti is there and no, he is not behaving innocently)
Delete"I wish. That would be awesome. I would like to give him a rim job and then cuddle."
DeleteThe corporate-owned media chiming in at TDH.
At his Town Hall yesterday Trump said there was strong evidence that the virus came from that Wuhan lab He said the government would be releasing the evidence at some point in time.
ReplyDeleteYes if Trump says it, it must be true. We can be sure the evidence will be forthcoming from his administration. Trump is punctilious about the accuracy of his statements, similar to the late great Abraham Lincoln.
DeleteLol
DeleteTrump also said the virus was nothing to worry about and would magically disappear.
Deletehttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/mar/14/teen-models-powerful-men-when-donald-trump-hosted-look-of-the-year
DeleteTrump, the child fucker.
No one believes Trump is a pedo but everyone believes Biden is. People have a sense of these things.
DeleteNo one believes Trump has any business sense but some of them appreciate his bigotry.
Delete"He said the government would be releasing the evidence at some point in time."
DeleteDembots are not interested.
The only script hardwired into their zombie heads is Orange Man Bad.
He's got his best people tracking down the evidence in Hawaii.
DeleteThe only script hardwired into your head is Anyone Against Orange Man Bad. Orange Man God King Rapist Virus Fumbler Thousands of Dead Because of Him Serial Liar Wearing Makeup Like Old Lady Do No Wrong.
DeleteYou're a monkey too boy.
Orange Man has been great. The stock market was up and unemployment was down before the widely predicted and expected pandemic that he told us not to worry about and would magically go away before Easter ruined our country forever, soon to be sending zillions into bankruptcy and poverty. What's not to love?
DeletePlus it's cool when 70 year old men are so insecure about the way they look they wear old lady makeup.
The killing of American citizens by the tens of thousands by the Chinese Communist Party continues unabated.
ReplyDeleteThe only new news is that the American Democrat Party has decided to join forces with it.
What the virus? Don't worry about it. It will magically disappear by April. We have it totally under control.
DeleteTrump is working overtime to deflect the blame for his failures on China. He doesn't mind lying to his supporters in order to avoid living up to his failures. Sad.
DeleteThe plan is to have no plan, let thousands of daily deaths become normal, and create massive confusion about who is responsible, in part by fighting with the press when it shows up to be briefed or to ask questions. Don't say "spin." It is way beyond spin. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/04/us/coronavirus-updates.html#link-7b42d0f5 …
