An abbey was in financial difficulties, and to increase its income the brothers decide to open a fish and chips business.

One day the abbey door bell rang and one of the brothers went to welcome a customer.

When he opened the door the customer said, "Are you the fish fryer?"

The brother said, "No, I'm the chip monk."

While I got you here, Wyatt- where do you think they should play the next outdoor NHL Winter Classic game? I've heard a couple of different venues being bandied about- most of them with their own pluses or minuses; the common thread seems to be that they're located in cold weather cities in the USA.

We or at least I may be double fucked - from:[Link: news.yahoo.com...]

WASHINGTON – Pointing with concern to "red ink as far as the eye can see," President-elect Barack Obama pledged Wednesday to tackle out-of-control Social Security and Medicare spending and named a special watchdog to clamp down on other federal programs — even as he campaigned anew to spend the largest pile of taxpayer money in history to revive the sinking economy.

[SNIP]

He said Wednesday, without details, that his initial budget proposal next month will include "some very specific outlines" of how he plans to tackle spending. That extends to the ballooning and so-far unsolvable fiscal problem presented by the Social Security and Medicare programs, which Obama promised would be "a central part" of his deficit-reduction plan.
[SNIP]
"We committed to changing the way our government in Washington does business so that we're no longer squandering billions of tax dollars on programs that have outlived their usefulness or exist solely because of the power of a lobbyist or an interest group," Obama said.

Mom and I are entirely dependent on Social Security and Social Security Disability Insurance and Medicare. If he cut's it or the "benefits" of it, we will LITERALLY be out on the street with no income or medical care. And so will perhaps another 50 million or more American Citizens who's only "entitlement" is that they paid 12% of their annual incomes into social security and medicare during their ENTIRE WORKING LIVES.
And as Dusty Vet showed in another link, on the priot thread, veterans health care costs TO THE VETERANS will increase as well.

Just thought I'd give y'all some food for thought for the rest of the evening/day!
Good night y'all.

It reminds me of Nacho Libre when the tortilla chips were stolen and Nacho was asked, "Did you not tell them that they were the Lord's chips?" The pronunciation is "cheeps" of course, so now, in our house, we call tortilla chips the Lord's cheeps. Now I can think that they were made by a cheep monk.

Jokes?

A crusty old biker, we'll call Wally, on a summer ride in the country,
Old Wally walks into a roadside bar and sees a sign hanging over the bar which reads:
CHEESEBURGER------------ $ 1.50
CHICKEN SANDWICH-------- $ 2.50
HAND JOB-----------------$ 10.00
Checking his wallet for the necessary payment, he walks up to the bar and beckons to the exceptionally attractive female bartender.
"Yes" she inquires with a knowing smile, "can I help you"
I was wondering, whispers the old biker, are you the young lady who gives the hand-jobs?
Yes I am, she purrs, I am....
The old biker replies, well, wash your hands, I want a cheeseburger........

The older son retorts, "I'll have a @#$%* cheeseburger!"

With that, the father reaches across the table and swats the son out of his chair. Trying to maintain composure, the waitress turns to the younger son, "er, what can I get for you dear?"

The younger son says, "You can bet your sweet ass I ain't ordering no @#$%* cheeseburger . . ."

Good to know.

It's really irritating that Israel is being put on the spot by the elitist liberal media when shit like that happens. These provocations have been happening since before Israel's establishment, and anytime Israel signs a treaty with one terrorist group, another parallel group emerges and resumes the same atrocities.

The international law seems to apply exclusively to Israel and the U.S. in the war on Islamic terror.

A person could run out of breath speaking that sentence, but there is wisdom in there.

I wouldn't worry that much. It's not politically popular to put 50 million people on the street. Remember there's a huge gap between what Obama says and what he can actually DO.

Still, hard decisions will have to be made at some point, or Social Security and Medicare will go away anyway since there will be no money, or there will be plenty of money but it will be worthless.

If I were a soldier, I can see being reluctant to kill actual soldiers from more or less "civilized" nations. But it's hard to imagine ever being reluctant to kill an Islamist terrorist. If I were ever on a plane with one, it would probably take ten people to stop me from tearing his eyes out. Something about that scum just wakes up the attack dog in me.

With so many of those people out in the street clinging to guns, that would make for one unforgettable block party. You're right, the sheer number of suddenly homeless people would make O's presidency a failure. They talked of Hoovervilles in the great depression. They'll want to avoid that one.

It all depends on whether Obama wants to be a hero to the hard-left base, or a hero to all of America.

The current economic meltdown is an opportunity in disguise. It gives him the chance to gut and reshape the social welfare "safety net", push alot of people out of their undeserved taxpayer financed nests -- if he chooses the wise path -- sort of a domestic version of Nixon-goes-to-China. Only a liberal can get away with making the necessary changes.

One thing's for sure -- we cannot continue on the road we're on now... too many hands in the cookie jar. If he chooses to do nothing substantial, or worse yet, adds to the burden, he will be viewed by the future as just another pandering politician... just another caretaker president fiddling while the nation dies. I don't think he'll settle for that.

Interesting video that makes some worthwhile distinctions. Shows how little the Western supporters of Hamas know about the Middle East. Most of them have never been there. Hamas = Taliban = one seriously sick religion.

Today, just for the record, I checked the following definitions in the Concise Oxford Dictionary online: militant -(adjective) favouring confrontational methods in support of a cause, (noun) a militant person;
terrorist - (noun) a person who uses violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.

And you know which word the MSM prefers.

Good Morning LGF.

Israel must now proceed to degrade the Hamas Terrorist Entity in Gaza by killing or capturing enough of the leadership and rank and file to end the rocket/missile attacks from Gaza. This implies a large search and destroy ground and air operation in southern Gaza.

An immediate reoccupation of the Philadelphi strip is also 100% necessary to prevent restocking. Egypt cannot be trusted since Mubarak is currently in denial about the arms smuggling, and in any event he could be removed from power at any moment by Islaofascists in Egypt.

Then, house to house searches of the entire Gaza strip will be necessary to find and destroy all munitions, tunnels and other terrorist infrastructure.

Only then will Israel be in a strong position to agree to a cease fire and to negotiate longer term security arrangements with other political entities.

Now is the time when Israel must remain steadfast and not allow a defeat in Gaza to be snatched from the jaws of victory. Olmert, Barak and Livni will hopefully follow through with the military operation and not capitulate to the UN and EU oil whores. If Kadima once again sells out Israeli security in order to secure a momentary pre-election hudna, then hopefully Israeli voters will not be fooled and Netanyahu will get his chance to finish the job.

For now, it seems israel is holding their fire. Although very dangerous, it was two rockets, then it has stopped. Lebanon claims they don't know who it was and is begging restraint.
Obviously Hezbollah.
I wonder if an itchy trigger finger set off the rockets prematurely... before a "real" offensive from Hezbollah?

Muqata:
11:12 AM The Ahmed Jabril terror organization take responsibility for rocket attack in North.

11:58 AM Hamas, Hizbollah: We had nothing to do with the Katyusha launchings at Northern Israel this morning.

Israel needs to do a full mobilization and prepare to invade Lebanon.
Such a mobilization stands the best chance to deter Hexbollah but if not then Israel will be ready.

re: #133 BlueCanuck

Or, they are trying to incite Israel into opening a second front that is not wanted at the moment.

I must respectfully disagree. The Hez-beasts and their Iranian masters have stepped into the trap and the jaws are closing.
Israel will have a chance to engage Iran's nuclear capability, and possibly finish it off, before Obama takes office.

re: #136 Shiplord Kirel

From your lips to God's ears. I think Israel knew this was a possibility the instant they started those air raids on Gaza and planned accordingly.

Israel never "needed" Bush and Condi's support, and they don't need Obama's.

However, with the momentum they have, and considering that both Hamas and Hezbollah are proxy armies from Iran, this may be the time to at very least wipe out Iran's reactors.

Go IDF!

I'm HOPING that they've had the drones up, detected and discovered the launch sites, then followed the launcher crews back to base. If they have, expect some new pics with lots of secondaries-but from Lebanon, not Gaza.

And we are coming.

Hear the trumpets of anger.
Hear so that you may see,
and you will see...
The trumpets of Jericho
So the Prince of the Army of God spoke.
On the seventh day, when the morning turns red,
the great state will fall
And everything will become ashes,
for I will burn it with fire.
Hear so that you may see!
I am the Prince of the Army of the Lord.
And we are coming.
Remove your shoes from your feet,
for the ground you stand on is holy.
Trumpets sound and the people scream,
Tubas sound and tremor Jericho.

/or so I've heard

I received the following message from the principal of this school:

January 20 marks the inauguration of President-elect Barack Obama. We at RKA would like to show his inauguration and acceptance speech to as many of our students as possible. We have been planning on running back-to-back assemblies throughout the afternoon in the auditorium where students would get to see a 45-minute recorded segment of his speech projected on a large screen. This would allow most students to see the speech (although not live) at some point during the day. We have however run into some difficulties in the coordination of this project. One problem we are having is that the time for his speech has not been announced. We wanted to let parents know of our plans to allow as many students to see the speech as possible, but we also want to ask parents for their flexibility and understanding regarding the mounting of such a large undertaking. We also encourage interested families to record the inauguration so students can view it in the evening in the event that our dream cannot be realized. (emphasis mine)

I am just wondering whether this will be before or after the Pro-palestinian march.

Hey guys,

I seem to recall reading as an aside in an article on Hamas' tactics that one of the ways they are trying to lure Israeli soldiers to be kidnapped was by wearing actual IDF uniforms.

Has anyone else heard of this?

If it is true, I desperately need a source, PLEASE e-mail me if you find something corroborating that. (my nick is blue)

A temporary ceasefire would be a Hamas victory:
1. Hamas will use it to restock, regroup and rearm.
2. IDF will lose its momentum.
3. Hamas will retain and enhance its capacity to launch daily missile attacks.
4. Smuggling of weapons into Gaza will continue via undestroyed existing tunnels and/or new tunnels.
5. Kadima will hope to win the upcoming election by bullshitting the Israeli electorate, claiming that they have changed the situation in Gaza when all that will have been accomplished is a temporary lull in missile fire at the pleasure of Hamas. If they do win the election they will make sure that Olmert is not prosecuted.
6. Obama will be inaugurated before Israel can complete the job and will further undercut Israel's position.

I have made a regular practice of trashing the media, and with good reason imho, but there are many exceptions and a few truly great ones.

Fwiw, I have good reason to believe that Bob Woodward is telling the truth, and then some, when he says he is sitting on a tremendous story having to do with the reasons for our success in Iraq. He has compared this to the Manhattan Project during World War 2. I think I know what it is. If I am right it will be the greatest story of the age.

Wish I could say more but, like the 40 or so journalist-patriots who knew about the atomic bomb before Hiroshima and withheld what they knew, I will have to wait.

Unwittingly, they have stereotyped Muslims as violent. Not exaxtly what they were going for.

Here's a very good column by John Kass of the Chicago Tribune on how Obama muscled Reid to get the Burris fiasco off the front page.

Obama serves Reid taste of Chicago Way

So the Chicago Way hauled off and slapped the U.S. Senate in the face—one of those backhands with the knuckles to unsuspecting lips—and guess who blinked?

It wasn't Chicago.

It was the Senate.

Get used to it, America. And it won't be the last time either.

Only a week ago, Obama, Reid and other Democratic leaders were adamant that they'd block any Senate appointment made by tainted Illinois Gov. Rod "Dead Meat" Blagojevich, who has been charged with trying to sell Obama's seat to the highest bidder.

Their statements back then were stern and inflexible, invoking the honor of the Senate and how they'd never let an allegedly corrupt governor put his greasy paws on their august dignity. Those statements weren't bland. They were so tough they had hair on them. More hair than Blagojevich, even.

But today's news is that Obama, often treated by the national media as the gentle Mr. Tumnus of American politics, got privately hardball with Reid over the Tombstone issue.

According a story in the Tribune by Rick Pearson and Mike Dorning, Obama didn't want the Chicago Way on parade in Washington, less than two weeks before his inauguration, when he formally becomes the agent of the change we can believe in.

The stench of Chicago politics is just starting to leak onto the Messiah.

People might start asking questions, wondering how Obama could come out of a city run by the wrought-iron fists of the Daley machine but smell like the neck of a baby after a bath.

I'm still wondering.

Yet Obama was tricky, not mentioning his phone call to Reid when talking to reporters Wednesday. He said Tombstone was the Senate's business, not his business.

The MSM continues to is let Obama have it any way he wants.

Obama almost wasn't asked anything about Burris on Wednesday. One reporter barely tossed it up at the end, after others asked him about the war in the Gaza Strip (Obama still can't comment about Gaza because he's not yet president) and the economy (though he's not president, you can't stop the guy from commenting on that one).

What Obama forgot to mention is that he ordered the Tombstone issue settled because it became his problem. So he told Reid to cave.

In political terms, Reid rolled up his sleeves, put on his favorite "Kiss the Chef" apron, got his fingers dusty with flour and baked himself a big humble pie. He scarfed it down in front of reporters Wednesday, without a fork, all but licking his fingers, that pie was so sweet and tasty. Mmm-mmm.

More on Blago:

Illinois impeachment panel bristles at report of Rod Blagojevich's hiring practices

SPRINGFIELD — Angry lawmakers debating Gov. Rod Blagojevich's impeachment blasted him Wednesday after the disclosure of a secret report revealing allegations of how his office aggressively pushed to skirt state hiring laws.

The impeachment panel pressed on, even as it began to look like legislators won't get to quickly hear covert FBI recordings of what officials say show Blagojevich cutting a deal to sign horse-racing legislation in exchange for campaign contributions. The governor's criminal lawyers objected in federal court to the panel's request to listen to the recordings, and a hearing is set for Thursday.

Blago basically saw the State offices as a Democratic Party hiring hall.

The confidential report, disclosed by the Tribune during Blagojevich's 2006 re-election campaign, said Blagojevich's office sought to circumvent hiring laws for veterans, falsify hiring records, hire unqualified employees and boost vacation time and pay by faking the background and experience of workers.

Zaldwaynaka Scott, then the inspector general, said the administration's hiring strategy "reflects not merely an ignorance of the law, but complete and utter contempt for the law."

This goes back to 2006, when Blago was running for re-election and some guys named Obama and Emanuel were running his re election campaign.

Yet the Messiah walks on water according to the MSM.
