re: #3 MandyManners

I liked that one too.

11 karmic_inquisitor  Wed, Jan 21, 2009 7:05:08pm

Just put this on the last thread, but more relevant to this one.

Just heard one of the dark princes of hedge funds, former George Soros partner Jim Rogers, just thrash Obama and his economic team, and then he took Geithner outside for a chain whipping.

The only story on it so far is from the Beeb itself, which spared Obama and focused on Geithner.

Obama's economic team attacked

A well-known investor has attacked the record of President Obama's nominee for Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner.

Jim Rogers, a former partner of George Soros, told the BBC that the new administration was "run by people who caused the latest financial problems".

He said Mr Geithner and Larry Summers, due to head the National Economic Council, have been wrong for 15 years.

"These people don't know what they're doing," he said. Mr Rogers is seen as influential in financial markets.

Speaking of Democratic party freak shows, Illinois Gov. Blago's family income just dropped a bit.:
Homeless Agency Fires Illinois First Lady From $100G Job

CHICAGO -- A Chicago homeless agency has fired Illinois' first lady from her $100,000-a-year job as its chief fundraiser.

The Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times reported Wednesday on their Web sites that the Chicago Christian Industrial League exercised a termination clause of Patti Blagojevich's contract Tuesday.

I guess they did not need a foul mouthed witch as a fund raiser.

I'm pretty sure I used to live down the street (Smith Co. Rd. 450) from the
"Warning Baby Killing Women ... Judgment coming!" people. Hard to miss their place (or compound in MSM terminology). They had crudely written signs posted outside their place with similar dire warnings. Their cars had such warnings crudely spray painted on the sides. I wonder if they still have their "Black schoolbus that prophesies doom." I got to see them kicked out of a local grocery store once. I've seen the "Black bus of doom" that they used to drive around in Texas in Washington, D. C. a couple of times, so it probably is them.

118 Taqiyyotomist  Wed, Jan 21, 2009 7:26:36pm

Have not read the thread, but did anyone see this at the bottom of the post at Age of Hooper?

Here is part of a video I took during the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee Conference in DC, June 2007. There were three speakers at the morning conference: Robert Malley, Sarah Roy (an anti-Israel academic), and Alif Safieh (a Palestinian diplomat).

One of the speakers, Robert Malley, has come into the news lately as a "senior foreign policy adviser" for the upcoming Obama administration. He is speaking about the current state of the Palestinian National Movement, and is advising them regarding their future strategies and how to package their message for US consumption.

There's some interesting stuff here ... he seems to speak highly of Arafat at times, and is anxious for Fatah and Hamas to come together under a single program and work together. Near the end he speaks somewhat darkly of the reasons why Congress votes the way it does, viz.: "... for all the reasons, and we know the reasons ...", and what a "solution" to the problem would be, viz.: "I think most of us in this room know what a solution would look like if there is going to be a viable and fair solution, we could get into the details, but I don't think that's a mystery anymore ..."

Scary times.

Thank you for posting this tidbit about Jim Roger's criticism of Obama's picks to head up the National Economic Council. I have a lot of respect for Rogers. I read his book "Investment Biker," and I was impressed with his insight into the economic problems he saw when he visited various countries on his motorcycle. The guy is savvy and understands why less government is better. I hope more voices like him are heard as Obama plots to throw wrenches into the American economy.

I was discussing that with the Mrs. yesterday. Unless you've got a VIP seat, you're going to see things better from your tv at home than you would in the blistering cold of standing out with other folks. Then again, it's the idea of belonging to a group that gets people to go to these things.

I never did the Times Square thing either, though I'm sure I wish I did when I was younger. Now? Not so much... I get to watch Dorian Gray Dick Clark on TV... and that works for me.

Give that dog a medal:

"Former French president Jacques Chirac was rushed to hospital after being mauled by his own 'clinically depressed' pet dog."

Former French president Jacques Chirac was rushed to hospital after being mauled by his own 'clinically depressed' pet dog.

The 76-year-old statesman was savaged by his white Maltese dog - which suffers from frenzied fits and is being treated with anti-depressants.

The animal, named Sumo, had become increasingly violent over the past years and was prone to making 'vicious, unprovoked attacks', Chirac's wife Bernadette said.

Heh. I saw this on Taranto. Why didn't Chirac surrender?

This is very personal, spiritual relationship with God. Screaming at people, telling them they are doomed, insulting them, is not the way to introduce them to this relationship.

Aww- you're very kind. But there are men (and women!) that would find those qualities rebellious because it's not a woman's "place".

And yet I was scolded the other day for saying sexism is alive and well. This guy is obviously an extremist, but there is more subtle forms of sexism out there, and I'm going to continue to work against it. But- that's what us rebellious women do.

Well I could not agree with you more..My Mother was a very strong woman..She was a great athlete and a great golfer..She was the kindest women you would ever met..In a matter of a few words she could trash talk a man into the fetal position...Everything I ever learned about talk'ng I learned from mom...:)

- support a local food bank
- provide skills to a nonprofit
- clean up your community
- walk or run for a cause
- mentor a child or teen
- help a local family in need

And during those five days, when you pledge 5 hours for the charity or cause of your choice, Starbucks will salute your work and dedication with a free Tall brewed cup of coffee in participating U.S. Starbucks stores (not valid at airports or Barnes & Noble locations). It’s just a small token of gratitude for the big work we can all do together.

[Link: www.infowars.com...]

beginning Wednesday, Jan. 21 through Sunday, Jan. 25. The goal of the effort is to raise pledges in excess of one million hours of service from all over the country,” a Starbucks press releases states.

Starbucks wants to “make it easy to participate in the President-elect’s call for national service.” Back in September, the Christian Science Monitor reported that Obama plans to “leverage volunteerism in communities across the country” and make government “cool again.”

Fortunately, a lot of people are beginning to realize government is never cool, as the founders warned a couple hundred years ago. In the months ahead, these folks will likely clash with Obamatron zombies, maybe even in the street.

Obama pledged that “service” will be central to his administration. He’d encourage young people to take up careers in public service and the government (thus, making it “cool.”) He’d do it in part by passing a $3.5 billion national-service program that would expand AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps as well as provide tax credits of up to $4,000 year to help underwrite college educations in exchange for public service. He’d also significantly expand the all-volunteer army, beef up veterans’ educational and health benefits, and create a kind of civilian corps that could take over some of the Army’s current civic tasks in war-torn regions around the world.

Obama’s “kind of civilian corps” was fleshed out on July 2, 2008, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, when the soon to be anointed one proposed what basically amounts to a Hitler Youth brigade one million strong to protect us from various ill-defined threats. I’m sure you have seen the video of Obama’s call for duty to the fatherland, but here it is again.

Considering its dismal retail figures, you’d think Starbucks would spend more time concentrating its efforts on increasing sales. But who knows… maybe they plan to press a few volunteers into service down the road serving up cappuccino now that selfless service in the name of some amorphously defined goal will soon be cool again.

Appleseed Project

The Appleseed Program is designed to take you from being a simple rifle owner to being a true rifleman. All throughout American history, the rifleman has been defined as a marksman capable of hitting a man-sized target from 500 yards away — no ifs, ands or buts about it. This 500-yard range is traditionally known as "the rifleman's quarter-mile;" a rifleman can hit just about any target he can see. This skill was particulary evident in the birth of our country, and was the difference in winning the Revolutionary War.

I hate that fucking hairball.

I think people train small dogs less. You have a big dog, you need to teach it to walk on leash, not bark, not eat the neighbor's kids. A little dog, many people don't train, they just rely on superior strength and size to control it.

My wife is a public defender and wants to know if defending (alleged) criminals for 1/2 to 1/3 (or less) the going rate is doing public service.
She doesn't care about the coffee, because Starbucks has too much flavor for her.

Differences Between Grandfathers and Grandmothers

A friend, who worked away from home all week, always made a special
effort with his family on the weekends. Every Sunday morning he would
take his 7-year old granddaughter out for a drive in the car for some
bonding time. Just he and his granddaughter.
One particular Sunday however, he had a bad cold and really didn't
feel like being up at all. Luckily, his wife came to the rescue and said
that she would take their granddaughter out.
When they returned, the little girl anxiously ran upstairs to see her
grandfather. 'Well, did you enjoy your ride with grandma?' 'Oh
yes, Pa Pa' the girl replied, 'and do you know what? We didn't
see a single dumb bastard or lousy shit head anywhere we went today!'

I agree. Coffee definitely is not Jamaica's best crop. However Kona is very mild, no cream or sugar needed. The caffeine is also very mellow and long lasting. Its a different buzz than regular coffee.

Coffee is truly a joy of life for me. Jack Daniels Coffee? sounds yummy. My favorite is 100% Kona. Its expensive, but totally worth it. We had some on a vacation in the smoky mountains. It was great sipping on that coffee in the morning on the porch of a cabin in the woods with a fire going. Doesn't get much better.

Gevalia coffee is far and away the best coffee I have ever had. We became "hooked" after falling for that "subscribe to the Gevalia coffee club and get a free coffee-maker" scam. Their coffee is so good it's addictive, but also hideously expensive. It took years to kick the habit, but now I am back to drinking good old regular Maxwell House.

Starbucks regular coffee isn't that great. Dunkin Donuts (if they give you REGULAR, not decaffinated) is the best tasting. Starbucks makes great coffee drinks, like cappuccino, or lattes. They make the real thing. Other places just add a lot of flavoring to coffee and call it a latte or a cappuccino. Also, Starbucks has a good atmosphere and the employees are usually sharp.

2005 – George W. Bush – 11.8 HH / 15.5 million
2001 – George W. Bush – 20.8 HH / 29.0 million
1997 – Bill Clinton – 17.1 HH / 21.6 million
1993 – Bill Clinton – 24.5 HH / 29.7 million
1989 – George Bush – 18.1 HH / 23.3 million
1985 – Ronald Reagan – 22.3 HH / 25.1 million
1981 – Ronald Reagan – 37.4 HH / 41.8 million
1977 – Jimmy Carter – 31.5 HH / 34.1 million
1973 – Richard Nixon – 28.5 HH / 33.0 million

Reagan wins with 41.8 million!

Consider, also, that there were nearly 80 million fewer inhabitants in 1981 and televisions were not as ubiquitous as now.

Starbucks regular coffee isn't that great. Dunkin Donuts (if they give you REGULAR, not decaffinated) is the best tasting. Starbucks makes great coffee drinks, like cappuccino, or lattes. They make the real thing. Other places just add a lot of flavoring to coffee and call it a latte or a cappuccino. Also, Starbucks has a good atmosphere and the employees are usually sharp.

The Starbucks african bean is a little bitter for my tast..I'm no sure whay bean Seattles best uses..But i really like the roast...

re: #301 logboy

WTF? This ad just showed up on Facebook.

Are you in?

Starbucks supports the call for national service. Pledge five volunteer hours and we’ll give you a free Tall coffee. Learn more.

I saw the ad on TV this morning; I thought I was going to throw up. I'm glad I never did get coffee there; it might have been inconvenient to have to upset my routine over Obamamania.

It was probably on CNBC, but it might have been on the Weather Channel instead.

My wife told me the Starbucks in our town is closing, and so I told her "good riddance" and told her about the commercial.

Starbucks is based in Seattle, which is a Moonbat haven, and (I guess) their francises are practically a network of clubhouses for elitist a**holes - so it's not surprising that way. But I thought they weren't doing so well financially, so it seems surprising that they would alienate a percentage of their customers with such blatant partisanship. Perhaps they think it will bring in their more devoted Moonbat customers more often.


I wonder how this "national service" bit will fly with the general public. I would think they would be too freaked about their personal financial security to be interested such a distraction at a time like this. But in true American fashion, many will claim to believe it's a wonderful thing, and that they "really care" - while their inaction will prove they really aren't interested.

Then again, there's the inner-city Obama Kool-Aid drinkers, but they're not exactly a cross-section, now are they? It'd be about time they did something to actually improve their own neighborhoods, BTW...

A goody that someone posted today, but is a classic in it's own time.


Did you hear the news?

Apparently when Obama woke upo this morning he opened the curtains to admire the view from his new home. But there in the snow, written in yellow, was the rude message: "Obama is a dork!"

The Secret Service was called & they immediately went to work, taking samples and comparing them to medical records, etc. Soon they had the mystery solved and reported to Obama,


"Mr. President, we have some good news and some bad news..."

"Umm.. do you know who left that message?"

"Yes sir, we found a positive match for the urine sample, as you suspected, it was John McCain."

"Ah-ha! I knew it! Umm... but what's the bad news?"

"It's in Michelle's handwriting."

Once, when I was a bit younger, my cholesterol came in at 113. I asked my doctor if it was too low. As I was/am a non-meat eater, and otherwise in good health, he said no. I don't think I've ever broken 150.

I would hate to see what mine is.

My physician says that cardio exercise is the big determining factor. When my HDL/LDL is bad, he tells me to exercise more. He doesn't bitch at me about smoking or diet or anything. Since I mostly see geriatrics in his office waiting room, I figure he knows what he is talking about.

I've never gotten why people seem to think Kennedy was so shit-hot. He fucked up the Bay of Pigs invasion, convinced Khrushchev that he was a pantywaist that could be pushed around, barely survived the Cuban Missile Crisis without getting us nuked, started Vietnam, and then was assassinated. Oh, I left out started the moon project. That one is good, I guess, but the rest of it is just plain awful.

I try to get what I'm missing, but I just can't see it. The people wanted "Camelot". Fine, read Once and Future King, don't try to graft it on to the rotting corpse of a mediocre President who had very few accomplishments. There's no there there.

I've come to the conclusion that there are a lot of people who want a King.
People are trying to do the same thing with the Obamessiah. If anything, they are worse. They really do worship Obama as some god made flesh as surely as the old Roman Emperors were worshipped as gods. It is scary, really.

From January 21-25, 2009, you’ll be able to find local volunteer opportunities at [Link: pledge5.starbucks.com....] You’ll see how you can:
- support a local food bank
- provide skills to a nonprofit
- clean up your community
- walk or run for a cause
- mentor a child or teen
- help a local family in need

And during those five days, when you pledge 5 hours for the charity or cause of your choice, Starbucks will salute your work and dedication with a free Tall brewed cup of coffee in participating U.S. Starbucks stores (not valid at airports or Barnes & Noble locations). It’s just a small token of gratitude for the big work we can all do together.

On the down side... they draw blood again.

Jeebus. The last time I had to have blood drawn, the nurse is sitting on my left, I offer my right arm. She wants my left.

"Can't find a pulse in my left arm. I have a shunt in that arm." But she's gonna try! Of course... no pulse.

So now she want to check clotting properties with the finger stick.

"That won't work, My Hemiglobin is too high, it causes the test machine to reset." But she's going to show that she can.... the machine gives an error code, as always.

So now she's going to do it veiniously. I offer my right arm. She want to stick my left! "Lady, you just stop right now, you have no idea what you are doing, and you know it so well you won't listen!"

THAT led to an interesting discussion with the office manager. *sigh*

For a gratuitously homophobic comment about "recruiting and indoctrinating" kids. (In response to my comment that textbook-bestickering Creationists are like unto radical "Queer" activists, in that both groups try to push their pet agendas into school curricula. And, I might add, the Creationists do the crybaby "if you don't let me express my POV in public schools, you are oppressing me" schtick just as eagerly and shamelessly as the Queer activists do.)

I've met plenty of idiots in healthcare. One of the most horrible nights of my life involved 13 IV tries. Then I stopped the nurse as she was about to inject the drug that was WRITTEN ON MY ALLERGY BRACELET 1 INCH away from the IV, asking her what it was. "Oops!" Idiot.

Jeebus. The last time I had to have blood drawn, the nurse is sitting on my left, I offer my right arm. She wants my left.

"Can't find a pulse in my left arm. I have a shunt in that arm." But she's gonna try! Of course... no pulse.

So now she want to check clotting properties with the finger stick.

"That won't work, My Hemiglobin is too high, it causes the test machine to reset." But she's going to show that she can.... the machine gives an error code, as always.

did you have an actual RN. I never have luck with the techs, but breathe a sigh of relief when an old, gray-haired RN comes in the room.
So now she's going to do it veiniously. I offer my right arm. She want to stick my left! "Lady, you just stop right now, you have no idea what you are doing, and you know it so well you won't listen!"

THAT led to an interesting discussion with the office manager. *sigh*

¹Disclaimer: Use of the term “fail miserably” is predicated on the user’s belief that socialism and collective government policies will do irrevocable damage to the country. Therefore it is incumbent that any implementation of a policy that undermines an individual’s inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (specifically in that order), and thus would do damage to this country, fails miserably and the person responsible for implementing said policy fails miserably. These objections are based solely on the users desire for this country and her citizens to be (1) safe, (2) free, and (3) prosperous. The user emphatically disagrees with the socialist philosophy and collectivist motivation of the current administration and beyond the stated objections wishes the current administration success in both their official and private endeavors.

Idiocy, all these policies with the accompanying intrusion of lawyers into battlefield decisions, give the soldiers massive perverse incentives to not take prisoners. That has three consequences:
1) moral, it encourages conduct contrary to the UCMJ and our traditions
2) political, it impedes our ability to transition from combat to positive relations with
     the people where our forces operate
3) operational, it denies us the benefits of gaining intelligence from prisoners.

re: #686 Iron Fist Gee Iron Fist, never knew you felt that way. See I remember things a little differently that you do: I remember the Bay of Pigs being an "invasion" cooked up by the CIA, using (mostly) ex-pat Cubans which depended on US airpower. And that JFK didn't find out about it until it was too late to stop it, but also didn't send in our Air Force or Navy Air because, under International law that would have been the same as declaring war on Cuba - I'm not saying that would have been a Bad Thing, but JFK apparently was sooo newly installed as POTUS he wasn't looking to start a war that the CIA started (oh and btw, in one of Nixon's memoirs he recalled thinking the CIA was out of it's mind for planning the Bay of Pigs, but also didn't think anything would come of the planning). Of course this was after he resigned the Presidency so Nixon may have been trying to burnish his image for history's sake. As for the USSR, I remember the fear I felt when a US Navy Destroyer stopped the Soviet Freighter with missile shaped containers on deck and it turned around and there was no nuclear war - and I was proud of the Navy and of JFK for standing up to the Soviet Union. Vietnam I'll grant you - it was STUPID in the extreme, but JFK was SO unpopular that he felt he needed to go to Texas to shore up his support for his re-election. He was not the "popular" figure that the MSM makes him out to be until AFTER he was murdered.
And,like most Americans, I don't exactly appreciate anyone trying to murder a duly elected POTUS.

I've never gotten why people seem to think Kennedy was so shit-hot.

Oh, I left out started the moon project. That one is good, I guess, but the rest of it is just plain awful.

I try to get what I'm missing, but I just can't see it. The people wanted "Camelot". Fine, read Once and Future King, don't try to graft it on to the rotting corpse of a mediocre President who had very few accomplishments. There's no there there.

People are trying to do the same thing with the Obamessiah. If anything, they are worse. They really do worship Obama as some god made flesh as surely as the old Roman Emperors were worshipped as gods. It is scary, really.

Taliban demands end to music on Pakistan buses

Bus drivers in northwest Pakistan have begun removing audio and video equipment from their vehicles after Taliban militants threatened suicide attacks against those who played music or movies for their passengers, an industry official said Tuesday.

Transport workers in Mardan town received letters this week from militants saying that buses offering such entertainment were guilty of spreading "vulgarity and obscenity," Walid Mir, general secretary of the town's transport union, told The Associated Press.

The militants said they would check the buses and that suicide attacks would be carried out against vehicles that still had audio and video equipment — prompting union members to act quickly, Mir said.

The Taliban letter complained that traveling in buses that provide audiovisual entertainment was a "source of mental agony for pious people," according to a text obtained by AP.

Thing about celebrity - very few have staying power.

And Obama has made it this far by avoiding decisions.

He is now compelled to make them, and has to live with the consequences. No more "distraction" bullshit.

52% bought his act.

His favorable is at 72%, which means half of those who didn't vote for him are of ggodwill and think it is fair to give the guy a chance. But that is not a sustainable number without doing something concrete and compelling that puts the Nation a better footing. Not likely to happen. Like so many stars, we will see his star fade.

re: #819 Maximu§

I wonder what they would say about those talking gas-pumps we're being tortured with.....:

Two aliens, Zathar and Caad, landed in the Arizona desert near an abandoned gas station.

They approached the gas pumps and Zathar said to it "Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace. Take us to your leader. "

The gas pump, of course, did not respond.

Zathar repeated the greeting and there was still no response.

Annoyed by what he perceived as the gas pump's haughty attitude, Zathar drew his ray gun and said impatiently, "Greetings Earthling, we come in peace. Why do you dare ignore us this way? Take us to your leader now, or I will be forced to fire upon you."

Caad began to warn his comrade, "No, you must not anger him................", but ...before he could finish his warning Zathar fired upon the gas pump.

There was a huge explosion that blew both of them 200 meters into the desert where they landed in a heap.

When they finally regained consciousness (aliens have tough skin) Zathar turned to Caad and said "What a ferocious creature. It nearly killed us. How did you determine it to be so dangerous?"

Caad answered, "If there is one thing I have learned in my travels throughout the galaxy, it is that if a guy has a penis he can wrap around himself twice and then stick in his own ear, don't mess with him."

AT THE WATERGATE

A couple from out-of-town stays at the Watergate Hotel in Washington. The wife is concerned with the privacy there. To soothe her mind, the husband says he will search the room for a bug. He looks behind the drapes, behind the pictures, under the rug. Under the rug he finds a disc with four screws. He gets his Swiss Army knife, unscrews the screws, and throws them and the disc out the window. The next morning, the hotel manager asks the couple how their stay was. The husband immediately becomes suspicious and wants to know why he's being questioned. The hotel manager replies, "Well, the room under you complained of the chandelier falling on them!"

My theory for the present is that McCain was doing well, getting inside Obama's OODA loop and having his staff pump out great videos for the 5 weeks up to the Republican Convention. Then the real John McCain was kidnapped and replaced by his evil twin Skippy who lost the election. We may be able to add Rosewell to this, or even a well endowed gas pump.

Ah, no. He didn't get his crew killed for it - one of them did survive and wrote a book about PT-109 and his experiences and blames JFK for nothing that happened. Moreover, unlike John Effin Kerry, JFK did in fact "see" combat and was, IMO,duly awarded a medal for outstanding bravery above and beyond the call of duty.
You didn't have to agree with him politically; I didn't.
But you should not denigrate his wartime service; his big daddy Joe could have kept JFK off of PT boats altogether and JFK chose to take one - and PT boat service was notoriously dangerous duty.

I support the Swifties, they never said that Kerry didn't see combat, he did,. What is claimed is that he exaggerated and falsified records to get medals.

re: #799 jcm Well I certainly agree with you that the execution of the support of South Vietnam was a Charlie Foxtrot. We could - sometime when I'm not so tired, perhaps, discuss the wisdom of providing that support - there is considerable evidence that the US did not go forward with the unification elections we'd agreed to, because all evidence was that Ho Chi Minh would have won in a landslide. And that, until we cancelled the election, Ho was more favorably disposed to the US than he was to the USSR but we were singularly unaware of that fact. The CIA's long string of intelligence failures in Vietnam didn't start with JFK.

re: #803 Dustyvet

I was just thinking, that at the age of 61, I have two memories that I'll take to the grave with me. November 22, 1963, I was in an 8th grade math class, and September 11, 2001, I had just cut the grass, and came into the house just in time to see the second airliner hit the WTC on TV...

Same here. I am 10 years older than you, and was pregnant with our first child, living in my native Boston, as NY Grampa was stationed at the now-defunct Boston Army Base. On that horrific November day, I had the radio on, and a bulletin came in re President Kennedy having been shot. BTW, he was my first presidential vote, as you had to be 21 in those days to vote...I then turned the TV on, and saw Walter Cronkite taking off his glasses and announcing the death of our President.

It did not sink in at first, but when it did, I called my husband...the Army Base did not know yet! He was sent home, as were the others. Why, I do not know.

I spent days crying...long story. It is seared in my brain. From then on, I dated everything before and after the assassination.....until the morning of 9/11. We had 3 kids and a daughter in law working in the city, and I honestly can't remember certain things..I was in shock, and seeing it on TV? Live and in color? I know I screamed when the second plane went in, and my husband came running out to see what was wrong. I pointed at the TV, speechless.

I am not going to go into the details, except that thank G-d the kids were all OK, physically. It is always in our minds, and my husband and I have not been in the city since..we are in the suburbs.

If a plane going into La Guardia seems to be flying too low? I still get scared.

Now, everything is dated after 9/11 in my mind, and I fear like I have not since a few months after that with Hussein in the White House, we are again in danger of another 9/11, G-d forbid. I do not think he has what it takes, and his Cabinet and VP? Horrific, and not fit in any way to be a post-9/11 government.

I think this "wait and see" nonsense comes from the complete ignorance of economics the average person in the US (regardless of party affiliation) is blessed with.

We could - sometime when I'm not so tired, perhaps, discuss the wisdom of providing that support - there is considerable evidence that the US did not go forward with the unification elections we'd agreed to, because all evidence was that Ho Chi Minh would have won in a landslide. And that, until we cancelled the election, Ho was more favorably disposed to the US than he was to the USSR but we were singularly unaware of that fact. The CIA's long string of intelligence failures in Vietnam didn't start with JFK.

Yeah, it was a mess all around, our post war policy in SEA. If you look at most conflicts there is always a point where it could have been avoided, but that the beauty of hindsight.

My larger point of view is defense of liberty is never a mistake. We just turned that good thing in one of the largest FUBARs of all time in SEA.

Hell if we'd let Patton come home through Moscow like he wanted the entire Cold War would never have happened.

re: #877 NY Nana

Same here. I am 10 years older than you, and was pregnant with our first child, living in my native Boston, as NY Grampa was stationed at the now-defunct Boston Army Base. On that horrific November day, I had the radio on, and a bulletin came in re President Kennedy having been shot. BTW, he was my first presidential vote, as you had to be 21 in those days to vote...I then turned the TV on, and saw Walter Cronkite taking off his glasses and announcing the death of our President.

It did not sink in at first, but when it did, I called my husband...the Army Base did not know yet! He was sent home, as were the others. Why, I do not know.

I spent days crying...long story. It is seared in my brain. From then on, I dated everything before and after the assassination.....until the morning of 9/11. We had 3 kids and a daughter in law working in the city, and I honestly can't remember certain things..I was in shock, and seeing it on TV? Live and in color? I know I screamed when the second plane went in, and my husband came running out to see what was wrong. I pointed at the TV, speechless.

I am not going to go into the details, except that thank G-d the kids were all OK, physically. It is always in our minds, and my husband and I have not been in the city since..we are in the suburbs.

If a plane going into La Guardia seems to be flying too low? I still get scared.

Now, everything is dated after 9/11 in my mind, and I fear like I have not since a few months after that with Hussein in the White House, we are again in danger of another 9/11, G-d forbid. I do not think he has what it takes, and his Cabinet and VP? Horrific, and not fit in any way to be a post-9/11 government.

Nana, thank you. You wrote the feelings that I found it hard to. When the towers collasped I wept like a child. When I was a child, I has a step father who informed my brothers and I that men don't cry. This one does.

Those of us who are fortunate enough to comment regularly out here I think OWE IT to Charles and LGF to a) report any comment of that ilk and b) Strongly disagree with such poster as soon as we see the comment.
I know I've probably pissed off Charles or the Monitor lizards by reporting comments that seemed to me to be out of line when Charles or the Monitors disagreed with me, but I'm going to keep reporting 'em and let Charles make the call. I truly HATE the way Kos, DU and Huffpoo - among others - rather routinely allow posters to call for violence against the POTUS - or at least when Bush was POTUS and if a comment THERE dared to question posting stuff like that, he or she would be deleted.

IMHO, only real men cry. G-d bless you.

BTW, we became indies a few months into Carter the Jew hater's first term...actually , and never looked back. We registered as Republicans when GW ran the first time, as indies can't vote in primaries in NY. And now? I think it was one of the wisest things we did.

No administration has so totally scared me so much in my life. I fear for our kids and grandkids. They seem destined, especially the little ones, to an America that will be a socialist state if Hussein and his minions get the chance.

I never,ever gave even a thought to Shrillary becoming Sec. of State...the whole set up stinks...was there a deal made with the devil? Living in NY, in the same county as the Billaries? They are more fake than a $7.00 bill, but as dangerous and devious as Hussein.

Any Republican candidate with the baggage they all carry would not even make it to a primary.

Kyle Ann Shiver (regular contributor to American Thinker) hits another one out of the park:

We have just elected a President sworn to pass the Freedom of Choice Act, which will codify Roe, require payment by the state for abortions, and even strike down the conscience clauses that now protect medical personnel. Our new President is also certain to appoint Supreme Court justices highly supportive of abortion rights. No one is mounting an army to rush in and destroy abortion mills all over the Country. Abortion is set to reign in America, perhaps forever.

There is nothing that I, as an individual, can do to change this reality. I continue to pray for the awakening of moral conscience, continue to offer substantive help to women who want to choose life for their unborn children, and continue to vote for candidates sworn to uphold the most basic human right there is -- the right to life, from the moment of conception as a unique human being. Unless I were willing to become a murderer myself, intent on bombing abortion mills and killing those inside them, I can do nothing else to stop it.

.....................

According to Genocide Watch, The International Campaign to End Genocide, there are 8 stages to Genocide, of which classification, the Holocaust was the first acknowledged internationally.

Is abortion the new, unacknowledged genocide?

The 8 stages of genocide are:

....................

Boomers are Next

I predict that the next American genocide will be the elderly, large swaths of the 79,000,000 Boomer generation. By sheer numbers, and in an economy that threatens long-term scarcity, these Boomers stand to be the next big losers in our increasingly utilitarian morality.

As any student of genocide can predict, once the innate and inviolable value of any group of human beings is rendered less than the value of others, then extermination (once all utility has been garnered from the group) is the natural inclination of human beings. And as long as we continue in the state of denial, then any group can become a target.

Roe, at 36 years old today, is only the beginning -- the mere sprout of the onion in the killing fields that America has become. Until we decide to change course, then every one of us is fodder for someone's genocide.

And no amount of rationalization or moral relativity or verbal contortionism can alter that immutable fact.

Read it all, here

re: #911 x-wing

Thank you, x-wing (and you too, Pat) :-)

Kyle Ann Shiver is one of my favorite reads. She is plainspoken, a patriot and gentle-woman. She has her own website that I resort to when I am overwhelmed by the senselessness of today's world.

This is part of her open letter to George Bush today:

With all due respect, I would rather you had saved the Country than the Republican Party, and that’s just what you’ve done.

I believe that’s called proper prioritizing.

It’s what presidents are supposed to do. Always. Every single time.

Yes, the Republican-Party brand appears tarnished beyond repair, our candidates far and wide are suffering defeat, and hardly a voice in defense of you can be heard anywhere. But, surely G. W., you realize that these difficult realities say far more about the non-cognizant state of our citizenry than they say about you.

Over New Year’s, I was hip-deep in a political debate with friends, who bemoaned your lack of eloquence, your mangling of simple words and your despised-one status with the media. When I mentioned your courage (a quality, which you have in spades, Mr. President), I drew blank stares.

I filled the noise void with a simple acknowledgement that we have now traded a genuine-article, manly president with true courage of conviction, for someone about whom we know next-to-nothing, except that he possesses the one thing most bemoaned as lacking in you, G.W. The President-Elect can give a good speech and sounds downright eloquent with a teleprompter.

Oh, and the media adores him.

This response endeared me to my friends about as much as the Iraq War has endeared you to yours.

One brave soul (another female, of course) said, “Katrina,” to which I replied, “Mayor Nagin and Governor Landrieu.” Silence. I then mentioned that the politicization of that natural disaster was the first time since Pravda’s heyday I had seen such a triumph of blatant poppycock propaganda. More silence.

Which, of course, brought the discussion right back to the liberal trump card, the Iraq War. One guy ventured that he had spoken with a few soldiers, who adamantly opposed the War. And oh, I could not help but remind him that according to the Military Times surveys, our military overwhelmingly supported John McCain, the guy who said he would stay in Iraq for 100 years if that’s what it took to secure a humane and democratic foothold in the Middle East.

Even the naysayers among my New Year’s group were forced to admit that your giving the reins to General Petraeus and your backing the Surge — amidst the most outlandish national outcry this Nation has ever endured - has saved America from another ignominious withdrawal.

In our little group, we’re all old enough to remember the anguished crowds around the helicopters on the rooftop of the American Embassy in Vietnam, the throngs of boat people arriving with tales of horror, the bloodbath conducted by the Vietnamese communists and the encouragement our leaving gave to every evil madman on the planet. We’re all old enough to remember, too, the foibles of the feckless Jimmy Carter and his helping the rise of the Mullahs that eventually brought us to 9/11. So, no one in our group was brazen enough to say that as a Wartime President, you failed.

In fact, Mr. President, there was a bit of grudging admiration all around.

Forwarded to me today from Craigslist personals, Savannah Georgia:


To the Guy Who Mugged Me Downtown (Downtown, Savannah)
Date: 2009-01-06, 3:43AM EST

I was the white guy with the black Burrberry jacket that you demanded I hand over shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend. You also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I hope you somehow come across this message. I'd like to apologize.

I didn't expect you to crap your pants when I drew my pistol af ter you took my jacket. Truth is, I was wearing the jacket for a reason that evening, and it wasn't that cold outside. You see, my girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber 1911 .45 ACP pistol for Christmas, and we had just picked up a shoulder holster for it that evening. Beautiful pistol, eh? It's a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head, isn't it?

I know it probably wasn't a great deal of fun walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown stinking sludge flopping about in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse since you also ended up leaving your shoes, cellphone, and wallet with me. I couldn't have you calling up any of your buddies to come help you try to mug us again. I took the liberty of calling your mother, or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, and explaining to her your situation. I also bought myself some gas on your card. I gave your shoes to one of the homeless guys over by Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all of the cash in your wallet, then I threw the wallet itself in a dumpster.

I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell. They'll be on your bill in case you'd like to know which ones. Alltel recently shut down the line, and I've only had the phone for a little over a day now, so I don't know what's going on with that. I hope they haven't permanently cut off your service. I was about to make some threatening phone calls to the DA's office with it. Oh well.

So, about your pants. I know that I was a little rough on you when you did this whole attempted mugging thing, so I'd like to make it up to you. I'm sure you've already washed your pants, so I'd like to help you out. I'd like to reimburse you for the detergent you used on the pants. What brand did you use, and was it liquid or powder? I'd also like to apologize for not killing you and instead making you walk back home humiliated. I'm hoping that you'll reconsider your choice of path in life. Next time you might not be so lucky. If you read this message, email me and we'll do lunch and laundry. Peace!

Once upon a time, there was a non-conforming sparrow who decided not to fly south for the winter.

However, soon the weather turned so cold that he reluctantly started to fly south. In a short time, ice began to form on his wings and he fell to earth in a barnyard, almost frozen.

A cow passed by and crapped on the little sparrow. The sparrow thought it was the end. But, the manure warmed him and defrosted his wings. Warm and happy, able to breathe, he started to sing. Just then a large cat came by and, hearing the chirping, investigated the sounds.
The cat cleared away the manure, found the chirping bird and promptly ate him.

The moral of the story:

1. Everyone who craps on you is not necessarily your enemy.

2. Everyone who gets you out of the crap is not necessarily your friend.

3. And, if you're warm and happy in a pile of crap, keep your mouth shut.

Ah....a little humor to share this late night.....

As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out
of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door.
The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load "
The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street. When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again.
She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window.As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"
Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the
street.
At the third red light, the same thing happens again.
All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on
the truck door. The trucker rolls down the window.
Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"
When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next
light.
When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs
back to the blonde.
He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it, he says...
"Hi, my name is Mark, it's winter,and I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!"

re: #222 Occasional Reader

Now, "Baby killing women"... does that refer to women who kill babies, or a particular baby who kills women?

I think the sign is calling the reader ‘baby’ and warning that killing any of the following on the list will result in a coming judgment. Properly punctuated, it reads as follows:

Warning baby!
Killing women, porno freaks, sports nuts, drunks, homos, Jesus mockers, Mormons?
Judgment coming!

He's probably right about the drunks. Most common last words down here in Texas: "Hey bubba! Hold my beer 'n watch THIS"

I'm sure that he meant to say Biden. It fits.

re: #915 realwest

"unauthorized gun on his ship and performing unnecessarily dangerous maneuvers that hazarded his ship and crew." What unauthorized guns? What unnecessarily dangerous manouvers? PT boats came in a whole variety of armament - for four .50 cal machine guns, to 40 and 20mm cannon but mostly they were Patrol Torpedo boats.

IIRC Kennedy ordered his P.T. Boats placed into neutral in dangerous waters with very low visibility. He was warned against doing it by his crew and insisted they do it. This was against the current S.O.P. and done for no justifiable reason. By putting his Boat into nuetral they didn't have time to put it into gear when they realized another vessel was bearing down on them and neither vessel could then avoid the collision that sank his Boat. It was gross negligence on his part and he was spared court martial conviction because he was a powerful senator's son etc. Most any other P.T. Commander would have been court-martialed and sent to jail/out of the service under the same conditions.
