Are Experts Who Are Always Wrong Really “Experts” At All?
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 01/05/2019 4:55:40 AM PST by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

The rules, they are a-changin’. – Hey, remember when all your Democrat friends were telling you that the appropriation of other cultures by white people was all bad and stuff, or something? Well, apparently that’s all gone by the wayside now that Fauxcahontas, one of the most pasty-white people you have ever seen in your life, is running for president.

That’s right: Little Mouth Always Running, on her campaign’s website, is now telling us that it is somehow “racist” to criticize her for pretending to be an American Indian in order to get hired at Harvard several decades ago, and for keeping that pretense up as a means of boosting her political career.

So, hey, new rules: Cultural appropriation is peachy-keen if you’re a leftist lunatic who is borrowing someone else’s culture in order to make money or obtain votes under false pretenses.

*sigh*

Tired of all this #Winning yet? – Why are all the “experts” always so damn shocked by the jobs reports? So, the U.S. economy added 312,000 new jobs in December, shocking all the eminent high muckety-muck economists, who predicted from their high towers that the number would be more like 180,000.

Of course, it wasn’t just these mysterious “expert” economists who were flummoxed by the wonderful report – the fake news media that has been doing its best to tank the U.S. economy since January 20, 2017 was also in a state of shock about it all. Here’s a sampling of the headlines this morning:

Associated Press: US employers went on a surprising[!] hiring spree in December

NPR: U.S. Adds Stronger-Than-Expected[!] 312,000 Jobs

Daily Mail: US economy adds 312,000 jobs in December, nearly DOUBLE[!] the number forecast by economists

CNN: U.S. Nonfarm Payrolls Rise 312,000 in December Vs. 184,000 Expected [Man, you know CNN detested having to report that]

And on and on it went. The hilarious thing about this is that all these same “experts” were also shocked at every jobs report during the Obama years, but they were invariably shocked because the actual numbers were so low when compared to their pie-in-the-sky expectations.

The moral of this story is this: Just as it is best to never listen to what the Inside-the-Beltway “experts” on your TV screen have to say about politics, it is best to never believe economists our fake news media identifies as “experts” when it comes to the economy.

Speaking of “experts”… – Democrat Senator Ben Cardin came out of a 2-hour meeting on border security at the White House and told Wolf Blitzer on CNN that “experts” are telling the Democrats that walls don’t work.

That, of course, is a damnable lie. There are no “experts” telling the Democrats any such thing, since any true “expert” on the matter has to admit that walls are indeed extremely effective at keeping out intruders. This has been proven time after time after time in countries all over the world, and even in San Diego, California, where the wall constructed in the 1990s has reduced the illegal immigrant problem by 95%.

Anyone telling the Democrats that walls don’t work is a hack, a liar and most likely a politically-motivated leftist. Which of course is the only kind of “expert” any of today’s Democrats are willing to listen to. Naturally, Mr. Blitzer had neither the motivation nor the presence of mind to ask Cardin to identify any of these “experts” by name. Because, CNN.

Let’s ask “Judge” Andrew Napolitano.

He’s an expert in the subject of wrong.

Someone should ask why they ignore the experts then and waste so much money building walls around their homes.

He is always wrong but I give him credit for going to such great lengths to prove it.

Liberals are little concerned in facts but if something seems to fit their world view they accept it without question. They build a collective utopia as the needs arise. All these “expert facts” are put out as propaganda to feed and bolster up the utopia they are building. The end justifies the means so facts are unimportant. Anyone that disagrees is a racists, climate denier, hater....

Imagine Hillary Clinton going on CNN as an "expert" on how to win presidential elections.

She's got the experience of running but not that of winning.

But I see she's met with the democRATS who are considering throwing their hats in the ring for 2020, apparently to offer them her advice on how to do it.

It's like asking a homeless bum for advice on how to dress in the latest clothing styles.

Apologies to homeless bums everywhere.

There was a name for “Expert Level Wrong” - and it was con-man. Not sure what they are called today. Seems like the new norm

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, the people will eventually come to believe it.” Goebbels.

This is the Lefts guiding principle in every policy.

“Experts” are paid agenda driven propagandists whose job is to take a partisan position AND STICK WITH IT. Right and wrong has nothing to do with it.

First of all, I had always heard it said that “an expert is an amateur from out of town”. Now if the Democrat-thinking “experts” are surprised at any outcomes by the other side, it is because they were working against any honest efforts to actually improve our country. Had they been working FOR the good of our country, the outcomes might be considerably different & there would be no need for any surprise in the outcomes by their side.

Expertism = Elitism. Appealing to authority, not objective, verifiable fact.

Bingo. And Partisan Media Shills? They're all liars. And being expert at lying doesn't make one an "expert" on any other topic.
