Moonbat confusion. Lots of that going around lately, with their messiah veering off the leftist line, albeit just as the occasion calls for it.

Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.

A Diggbat named "shadowspawn":

FTA:"Unless Iranian missile exhaust tends to form remarkably regular patterns, someone's been busying himself with the clone tool."

They do. Most missles do, idiot.

They burn the same. They have to. They have the same exhaust pressures, the same fluid dynamics, the same thermodynamics, the same fuel consumption ratios, the same fuel composition and control delivery mechanisms. The same exact mechanics and tolerances. The same guidance systems. And in their report one can gain the same exact target.

In this shot: the same weather conditions. The same humidity. The same wind speed. The same temperature. The same air pressure.

The only thing that would make the plumes look different would be if they were launched in each other's wake, which is kinda not the thing to do with these types of delivery systems, or facing different directions during liftoff, or of a gyroscope needed to do corrections.

The stupid is strong with this one.

I'm reminded of that old story about the lady that lived her whole life in Vincenz, Indiana, and she was a loyal, committed Democrat.

Jim Moran (D-8), and his fellow residents in Virginia’s 8th Congressional District as he left Moran’s town hall entitled "Is Iran Next?" at the George Washington Masonic Memorial Temple in Alexandria on Nov. 13. Moran expressed his own concerns during the meeting while he answered questions from the audience. His three panelists – National Iranian American Council president Trita Parsi, former Assistant Secretary of Defense Lawrence Korb and U.S. Rep. John Tierney (D-Mass.) – also condemned the United States’ approach to foreign relations with Iran ...

I'd like to suggest a sort of "affirmative" action or special ed plan for LGF. Couldn't you offer people (well, idiots, like the one referenced in no. 27}, sort of like a "trial membership" for idiots?
When you locate a raving moonbat, you could let him into your group. This would serve at least two purposes. First, it would ensure a steady supply of idiots, fresh meat as it were, for the troll eaters. Second, it might like a virus, infect the idiot (moonbatus idiotus) and cause them to think, challenge their friends or cause their heads to explode.
Then, you could adopt a snappy slogan, like "a mind is a terrible thing to waste" or "we found an idiot and we saved him".

An interesting detail of this whole kerfuffle: this was clearly a pre-planned photo-op, and surely the Photochopping took time. If Iran is as strong as they'd like to believe, why not just fix the fourth missile, rack another one, and fire a "second wave" as "part of the exercise"?

We should take seriously the idea that Iran doesn't actually have missiles that work, and they bought these from somewhere. Their pugnaciousness is not matched by sagaciousness.

So I made my point, which no one has really disputed.

Then today -- voila -- the situation has changed, and a number of news outlets have used the photo. A mistake.

I would deserve healthy heapin's of criticism if I stuck to the stance that this hasn't been widely used by Western media, when it has. Trouble is, I've changed my position on that -- those sites and outlets deserve criticism for using a fake photo, no doubt.

But to criticize me today for a story that didn't truthfully exist yet yesterday is a bit weak. And my point -- linked above -- still stands.

Oh, look: Pelosi has come up with something more important to take up Congress' time than trivial things like repealing the drilling ban:

Pelosi Says House Judiciary May Hold Hearings On Kucinich Impeachment Resolution

(The Politico) Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said this morning that the House Judiciary Committee may hold hearings on an impeachment resolution offered by Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio).

Kucinich is expected to offer a "privileged resolution" this afternoon calling on the House to look at whether President Bush should be removed from office for lying to Congress and the American public when he sought congressional approval back in 2002 for taking military action to invade Iraq and overthrow Saddam Hussein.

Pelosi has said previously that impeachment "was off the table," so her comments this morning were surprising, and clearly signaled a new willingness to entertain the idea of ousting Bush, although no one in the Democratic leadership believes that is likely since the president has only six months left in this term.

"This is a Judiciary Committee matter, and I believe we will some attention being paid to it by the Judiciary Committee," Pelosi told reporters. "Not necessarily taking up the articles of impeachment because that would have to be approved on the floor, but to have some hearings on the subject."

Pelosi added: "My expectation is that there will be some review of that in the committee."

A spokesman for the House Judiciary Committee had no immediate comment when asked whether Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.), the panel's chairman, planned hearings on Kucinich's impeachment resolutions.

Yeah, that's just the ticket for improving that 9% approval rating, Nancy...

re: #165 Cognito

Eh. I'd say most of it is misplaced schadenfreude. What people seem to forget is that my first question yesterday was, "Where has this been published?" No one had an answer, beyond a French news service.

So I made my point, which no one has really disputed.

Then today -- voila -- the situation has changed, and a number of news outlets have used the photo. A mistake.

I would deserve healthy heapin's of criticism if I stuck to the stance that this hasn't been widely used by Western media, when it has. Trouble is, I've changed my position on that -- those sites and outlets deserve criticism for using a fake photo, no doubt.

But to criticize me today for a story that didn't truthfully exist yet yesterday is a bit weak. And my point -- linked above -- still stands.

My two cents are as follows: I think part of the problem yesterday would be that everyone (even you I think) knew this was going to be picked up and run with. I know I did. Yet you continued to argue from a point of seeming ignorance, "what western media picked it up?". When people tried to point out how often this happened, you just raised your quills and dug into your burrow, snapping at anyone that got close. This is a usual behavior from you on Media threads. On everything else you can have a rational discussion, but as soon as you hit a media thread you have a burr under your saddle. I think many of us have seen this so long that it's just easier to start poking you with a stick right off the bat and get it over with.

/two cents off.

re: #161 Mars Needs Neocons

Well, lets look at the evidence. He's generally well-written, seems to be of decent intelligence, but has a major case of cognitive dissonance where the press is involved. And tends to get more arrogant the more people go after him. (Not to mention pursuing his points long after everyone has ceased to give a damn)

Yes...well...that describes many press/journo types. I don't believe he has a high-level kind of job, though (published). Lower down on the totem pole, perhaps.

Either a vicious rumor to discredit him or insider information?

Some of those Russian Orthodox seminaries were awash with odd progressive politics in the late 19th, early 20th centuries. There was a Russian law (I think Peter the Great created it) that the only higher learning sons of priests could get was at seminary. The other option was to learn a trade and live by it. Hmmm. Live off the land as a peasant farmer? Slave over a hot furnace as a smith? Or go to seminary and get paid by the state to be a lousy leisurely freeloading goldbrick parish priest? This law made for lots of seminarians who had no interest in theology, church, religion, and so on.

And he probably believed it [That Lenin was expelled from seminary over pornography, not politics], but I have never seen that accusation backed up.

And how would anyone be able to back it up?

Assuming it were true, the likelihood of good documentation of said porno and its possessor remaining to this day is approximately zero.

(2008-07-10) — Democrat presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama today faulted the “weakness of the Bush administration” for Iran’s recent long-range missile testing, and said when he sits in the Oval Office “Iran will know that we mean talk.”

The Illinois senator said he would engage Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in face-to-face negotiations offering “carrots as well as sticks,” meaning that he would “reward Iranian goodwill gestures with stirring laudatory speeches, and punish Iran’s violations of U.N. resolutions with bold rhetorical rebukes.”
