“A Nation Of Racist Dwarves…”
February 1, 2010
Hey, I didn’t say it…
http://www.slate.com/id/2243112/
This article is notable, in my opinion, for 3 things:
1. The hilarious title
2. The frightening exposure of conditions in a country about which most of us know little, and care less.
3. The picture linked on p. 2, which says it all.
Hitchens is, in his own way, our very own Salman Rushdie (he is a naturalized U.S. citizen), except that he writes in such a way as to solicit hate and fear from not only the radical Muslim world, but from religious fanatics of every stripe, liberals, head-in-the-sand pacifists and, quite clearly, the Dear Leader. It takes moral courage to do this, and he has demonstrated physical courage not shown, to my knowledge, by any other journalist ( http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/video/2008/hitchens_video200808).
It’s amazing he’s still alive.
Kitty Is At It Again*…
January 29, 2010
I wonder why Miss Kitty is waiting until just after the inauguration of a Republican governor to begin her shrieking over the impending “out-of-control freight train,” when the 23,000 layoffs she bemoans are based on the budget proposed by Democrat Tim Kaine? Seems a little odd, doesn’t it?
Remember, this is the woman who in October 08 wrote in an email to VEA members statewide, “Let’s make Obama Blue Day a day of Action! Barack the vote!” She then claimed that the invitation was not intended to “encourage teachers to use their classrooms for partisan political purposes.” What a crock of shit.
I might add that if Miss Kitty insists on oinking out her most recent partisan nonsense on behalf of the Virginia EDUCATION Association, she do it in correct grammatical fashion, which would read “…give serious thought to how we can preserve the public school quality to which we have grown accustomed here in Virginia.” Is this too much for which to ask?
There’s an old joke: UVA student visiting Va Tech asks a Hokie, “Can you tell me where the rest rooms are at?” “Well, here at Virginia Tech, we learn to not end sentences with prepositions.” “Oh, excuse me, can you tell me where the rest rooms are at, asshole?”

Cindy Sheehan Doesn’t Get It…
January 17, 2010
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,583199,00.html?test=latestnews
Okay, this makes a lot of sense: Cindy Sheehan is protesting at Dick Cheney’s house against the use of drones in Afghanistan. I’ve met moms who have lost sons in combat; I feel for her loss. But she evidently feels that her hatred for Cheney trumps the fact that Commander-In-Chief Obama can stop the use of these drones anytime he wishes. He can bring all the troops home anytime he wishes. He could even have recently declined to send more troops over there (and remember, he ran on a plank of bringing them home) if he so wished.
Ms. Sheehan also seems to have forgotten that Afghanistan is a war that Obama, whom she presumably supports, has adopted as his own. The banner in the background is, of course, ludicrous. We are not at war with the people of Afghanistan; we are at war with Al Qaeda there. Sheehan’s position seems to be this: instead of, when possible, using our technology to kill the bad guys, we should put at risk the lives of the sons of other mothers like her so that, what, they can endure the same grief she does?
This sad and clueless woman has had her grief hijacked by the radical left and has, from the get-go, been used as a pawn by the antiwar crowd. It’s time for her to go home.
What’s The Big Deal?
January 11, 2010
It’s true.
If I gave enough of a shit, I would post numerous examples of Obama resorting to “Negro dialect” when it suited him, to which I would then compare any rehearsed speech he’s ever made. We all alter our speech depending on our audience, and a simple transactional analysis proves it. Look at the way we change our speech when we talk to infants, preteens, teens, adults, teachers, rednecks, lovers, parents, etc. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t do this.
So give poor Harry a break; he’s self-destructing anyway. Let him do it.

If you have as much time to waste as Ted does (okay, and as much as I do for even bothering with this), follow the links on his post. He’s enjoying quite a bit of celebrity over this.
Dear Ted:
For chrissake, mellow out and have a Foster’s or 6. Then hop on Qantas and pop over. I challenge you to a duel! Boomerangs at 50 paces!

Just Ask Yourself…
December 30, 2009
…what the media would be saying if this incompetence had occurred under Bush:
As expected (again, mirroring what Napolitano oinked out), it’s Bush’s fault:
“It’s becoming clear that the system that’s been in place for years now is not sufficiently up to date to take full advantage of the information we collect and the knowledge we have,” Obama said.
He has yet to use the words “terror” or “terrorist” in speaking of this incident.
“Remain Calm! All Is Well!”
December 29, 2009
After an (“alleged”—your Commander-In-Chief) terrorist tried to kill several hundred people with a tighty-whitey bomb, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano had this to say:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Deje2EM-KY
Ms. Napolitano went on to say that the system did not work, and then implied that the failure was due, as are all failures, to George W. Bush and his “policies that have been in place for several years.”
In his urgency to correct these failures, President Obama waited “more than eight months to nominate anyone to lead the Transportation Security Administration and the Customs and Border Protection Agency.” These, of course, are 2 of the most critical posts in the war against terror or, as Obama has decreed it be named, the struggle against “man-caused disasters.”

“Jackie Kennedy was pregnant at the time and was rushed to the hospital while JFK was on the boat. Doctors performed an emergency C-section, but the infant was stillborn.”
What a guy.
