Given our getting-crazier-by-the-day world, it’s little wonder how a three decades ago Mrs. Bill Clinton of Arkansas is being recycled as America’s First Woman President. Abortion advocating, sexual assault shushing Mrs. Bill Clinton, last seen laughing uproariously with Cardinal Timothy Dolan at the Al Smith dinner, has crowned herself as the world Saviour of Women and Children, and her remaining years of life will be chronicled by history. Who ever knew that at the same time Hillary Rodham Clinton was coming down the pike, the United Nations would be making history by assigning comic book characters as honorary, fully-fledged, real life ambassadors?
The U.N. previously tapped Winnie the Pooh to be an honorary Ambassador of Friendship in 1998, and Tinker Bell as the honorary Ambassador of Green in 2009. But that was just the beginning of a story that starts out with the words “Once Upon a Time”. In the Looney Tune times in which we now all live, cartoon pigs don’t just fly, they practically own the sky. Our social media manufactured Make Believe World where politicians going for the presidency of the U.S. are thrust upon the hapless masses rather than being voted in, has come full circle. Over at the United Nations, protests followed on Friday when ‘Wonder Woman’—the comic book character—was officially named ‘Honorary Ambassador For the Empowerment of Women and Girls’. You can’t make this stuff up because the progressives of the lib-left already have a monopoly on it. “Actress Lynda Carter, who starred in the 1970s series,"Wonder Woman," and actress Gal Gadot, who stars in the upcoming film, "Wonder Woman," appear at a United Nations event naming the superhero character as an Honorary Ambassador For the Empowerment of Women and Girls.” (AP, Oct. 21, 2016)

“The United Nations celebrated Wonder Woman's 75th birthday on Friday by naming the comic book character as its new Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Woman and Girls, despite frustration from both inside and outside the world organization that the spot should go to a real — and less sexualized — woman.”
“A real less sexualized woman”. These folk are about as real as the cartoon characters they “empower”.
“The carefully choreographed ceremony was marred by some 50 U.N. staffers protesting by the visitors' entrance to the U.N., who then went inside the Economic and Social Council chamber and silently turned their back to the stage during the opening speech, some with their fists in the air.” (AP)
Mickey Mouse, had he not been so busy playing President Barack Obama, would have staged a better protest. The surrealistic march of regenerated cartoon characters in real time comes with iconic changes to the public lexicon. Accommodated by word giants like ‘Time’ and Miriam Webster, we now have ‘truthiness’ rather than ‘truthfulness’. Truthiness is word that Obama likes to use but never follows himself.

‘Truthiness’ was resurrected at the beginning of Election Campaign 2016, by Stephen Colbert who originally coined it, Barack Obama is digging it up again as the campaign nears its end. “Stephen Colbert brought back his famous 'The Word' segment from his Comedy Central days for his first night of coverage of the Republican National Convention, and he did not disappoint. From 'Truthiness' to 'Trumpiness', Colbert explained that's how far we've devolved in just a decade. (Vox, Jul 19, 2016) “Stephen Colbert celebrated the Republican National Convention's opening night on Monday's Late Show by reuniting with some old Comedy Central friends, Jon Stewart and "Stephen Colbert.” (The Week, Jul 19, 2016)
"Hello, nation," the Colbert Report Colbert said. "Did you miss me? I know I did. Well, it's time to say aloha to Stephen Colbert, and aloha to Stephen Colbert." The audience was especially excited when Colbert resurrected "The Word," Colbert's old poke at Fox News frenemy Bill O'Reilly. "Just to remind you, 11 years ago, I invented a word: truthiness," Colbert said, with "Trademark Viacom @2005, All Rights Reserved" written in the "Word" box, where most of the jokes happen. "You see, truthiness is believing something that feels true, even if it isn't supported by fact." He said that he (the Colbert Report Colbert) and Trump have a lot in common, both being "over-the-top TV personalities who decided to run for president," though Trump has surpassed him now. "Truthiness has to feel true, but Trumpiness doesn't even have to do that," he explained. "In fact, many Trump supporters don't believe his wildest promises, and they don't care." He cited the border wall as an example. "If he doesn't ever have to mean what he says, that means he can say anything," Colbert said. "Here's the deal: Truthiness was from the gut, but Trumpiness clearly comes from much further down the gastrointestinal tract.”
“President Barack Obama is again complaining about conservative media, accusing it of creating candidate Donald Trump. (Breitbart, Oct. 22, 2016)
“Trump didn’t come out of nowhere now,” Obama said during a campaign speech in Miami. “For years, Republican politicians and far-right media outlets had just been pumping out all kinds of toxic, crazy stuff.” “Obama employed a straw man attack against conservative media, accusing them of starting “the whole birther thing” and calling climate change a “Chinese hoax.” “According to them, I’m powerful enough to cause these hurricanes, and I’m about to steal everybody’s guns in the middle of the night and declare martial law, but somehow I still need a teleprompter to finish a sentence,” he said incredulously. “Obama argued that Republicans knew better than to allow such theories to continue, but they were silent because it would help them stay in power. “They just stood by and said nothing, even though they knew better, while their base actually started believing some of this stuff,” Obama said. “Trump, Obama suggested, only took advantage of the current political climate to win the Republican primary. “Donald Trump didn’t start all this. Like he usually does, he just slapped his name on it, took credit for it, and promoted the heck out of it,” Obama said. “The president has spent a great deal of his time in office complaining about conservative media, particularly Fox News and talk radio hosts like Rush Limbaugh. “Earlier this month, Obama floated the idea for “truthiness tests” for media outlets on the internet. “There has to be, I think, some sort of way in which we can sort through information that passes some basic truthiness tests and those that we have to discard because they just don’t have any basis in anything that’s actually happening in the world,” he said."
What’s actually “happening in the world” is that a many times proven congenital liar, passed off by the Democrat Party as ‘World Savior of Women & Children’ is out to provide ‘Truthiness” Obama a third undeserved term in office. Millions of ordinary people would like to try Obama’s “truthiness tests” on both him and his 3rd term seeker Hillary Clinton and her media peeps but know it would be like trying to nail jelly to a wall.
