Abottabad And Costello

Reactions to the death of Osama bin Laden at the hand of US forces were varied — from the jubilation of impromptu crowds celebrating in front of the White House and at Ground Zero to the shock and relief experienced by family members of his victims to concerns about a short-term spike in terrorist activity resulting from the al-Qaeda leader’s execution.

A minority took a very different approach, poking at the tea leaves to try to divine a way for the news to be very, very bad for Barack Obama. Now that’s outside-the-box thinking — this wouldn’t be most people’s first reaction upon learning that the current president’s troops had succeeded at accomplishing a major military goal left unaccomplished by his predecessors.

And to be fair, it wasn’t Pam Geller’s either. She did manage to get through a full sentence before bashing Obama:

Breaking -= FOX News is reporting that Muslim leader Osama Bin Laden is dead and that the US has his body. Obama to address the nation, I hope he doesn’t get choked up …

And really, a big news day like this would be difficult for anyone. How to balance gloating over the death of a monster, scoring political points and collectively blaming hundreds of millions of co-religionists for the actions of a tiny few?

Pam’s method — mix n’ match — is as good as any, we suppose.

Gd bless the US military. We killed him. Oorah!

I hope Muslims are dancing in the streets in America. No? Or has CAIR filed a lawsuit?

The 300 million or so non-Muslim Americans who didn’t take to the streets to dance a jig last night all had a legitimate excuse — fallen arches, they were washing their hair, etc.

UPDATE: The teleprompter is speaking *yawn* The teleprompter is taking credit for the killing. Every other word is I.

‘We are not at war with Islam.’
‘He was not a Muslim Leader’

Sheesh …….. the man is insane.

Insanity, as they say, is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. How many times does Obama have to appear on television before he figures out that Pammycakes is not a fan?

UPDATE: Crowds of cheering Americans gathered outside the White House in Washington DC, chanting ‘USA, USA.’ Not a burka in the crowd.

Nary a cowboy hat, neither. Why do rodeo clowns hate America?

Meanwhile, Atlas commenter ParahSalin finds the cloud at the heart of the silver lining:

Good riddance. Only about 200 million to go.

Rumsfeld immediately went out of his way to claim that the intelligence may have come from Gitmo. Look for the wingnuts to cling to that piece of dung for justification of how Bush should get all the credit.

Not content with fomenting jihad from the Oval Office, Obama has taken out bin Laden in an obvious move to take over al Qaeda and consolidate his global Mooslim power base as he moves on to Stage 2 of destroying America.

Oh, important meme to run with; remember how up in arms the right got when anybody suggested that sending in big armies to foreign countries was exactly what Bin Laden wanted, and we would be a lot more effective with intelligence gathering and law enforcement/special forces actions? Well hey, look what worked.

A comment from this post has been stuck in my head for two-plus years:

Andrew the Noisy said,

Dear Moonbat Liberal Friend,

I accept your offer in the spirit of the bipartisanship and high jocularity in which it is tendered. I think your hat will be safe, as I have my doubts that President Obama and his Congressional minders compatriots will do any of those things.

But let us be positive. To make a bet that America will not be rendered in the manner of a Hieronymous Bosch painting is all well and good, but let’s consider goals worth of these historic times.

Therefore, I make the following counter-offer: If at the end of Obama’s presidency, any of the following things have happened:

1. The institution of a national health care system, which makes health care less, not more, difficult to get.

2. The raising of taxes and/or cutting of total federal government outlays in order to decrease the deficit and national debt, so that the latter is smaller in real dollar terms at the end of Obama’s tenure than it was at the beginning.

3. The capture of Osama Bin Laden (in the unlikely event that he is uncovered in the remaining months of the Bush Administration, we will call this one off).

4. A federal investigation in to alleges of multiple voting in this most recent election, and/or a serious federal reform of election laws or practices.

5. The construction of any new nuclear power plants down wind of a Greenpeace member or wind farms in the sight line of a beach frequented by anyone whose last name rhymes with Fennedy.

6. Any kind of appreciable decrease in the amount of oil we import from abroad.

Then you may send the hat to me, postage paid, and I will not eat it (wrong kind of fiber for my digestion, methinks), but I will put it on, with a note that says “I AM A RETARD” safety pinned over the oh-so-badass OBEY logo, and take a picture of myself. I will then send the hat (after being washed free of KKKonservative KKKooties) and the picture back to you.

If, on the other hand, none of those things will happen. You can keep the hat and take a similar picture and post it here at Sadly, No!

We’ll settle up in January 2013 or 2017, as the Great Game plays out.

Someone needs to pay up…

 
 

He’ll need to see the long-form death certificate first.

Seriously. Poll the crowd at the White House and I doubt you’ll find too many Republicans – this is DC. They just can’t fathom the concept that liberals were out patriotically partying the murder of a man who murdered 3,000 of their countrymen.

Uh, wrong, bigot bitch.

Story of her life.

 
 

So we acted on solid intelligence and sent in a special group of elite soldiers to kill Obama in a mansion in a vacation-ish destination in Pakistan.

Funny, this sounds an awful lot like a badass outbreak of law-enforcement, for which no commitment of thousands of troops to an entirely different country would be needed.

Hm.

 
 

And just like that, I made the FOX fuck-up. Awesome.

 
 

So I’ve been perusing NRO, Instapundit and Power Line to get the wingnut line on this. It’s the same old crap. Obama tried too hard to say nice things. Obama said “I” a few times. A couple of teleprompter complaints, and basically some whining that he didn’t resign command over to Bush. Ho hum.

 
 

What, didn’t we get Israel’s permission before killing Osama? Maybe that’s what’s got Pammie’s panties in a wad.

 
 

I’m glad that Osama bin Laden was finally accounted for, but I can’t be elated, and I am appalled at some of the that things I’ve been hearing- I mean, people, I thought the bad guys were the people who wanted to put heads on pikes and display them.

The guy’s dead, and good riddance, his body was disposed of in a dignified manner to preserve our dignity, not his.

First off, “STRING BOY?” “STRING BOY?”

Secondly, “BUSH HANDED HIM THE STRING?” Sadly, No! Way back in 2006: C.I.A. Closes Unit Focused on Capture of bin Laden. Looks like Bush dropped the string, and Obama had to put the kite back up into the air again. So that would be President String Boy to you, pal.

I don’t recall who/ where I saw it but it’s worth repeating. It is likely that Obama was deliberating or had already made the decision when he joked about Trump’s “executive decisions” at the nerdprom. Fuck, I’d have a hard time pulling that off.

 
 

There are actually around one billion Muslims I think but it’s really the Arabic speakers and Persians that these people really hate so let’s call it 500 million. Someday a significant percentage will meet the fate so hoped for by Pam’s friend.

Mmm. I don’t fault people for celebrating, especially those in DC and New York who lived through the attacks and knew people who died. If that had happened to me, I might be out celebrating too. Don’t know. Can’t blame the people who are.

At the same time, this guy on Balloon Juice makes a pretty good point in quoting a 9/11 survivor: “But I just can’t find it in me to be glad one more person is dead, even if it is Osama Bin Laden.” ~ Westchester resident Harry Waizer, who escaped north tower after plane hit on 9-11.

I’m not faulting anyone for celebrating- I am glad that OBL is no longer among the living, but I think it’s an occasion for reflection, not elation. I lost friends in the attack, and because of health complications afterward, but I think Harry Waizer articulated the wise perception of the event.

A wingnut caller to the morning show I listen to said that he wanted bin Laden’s body paraded through D.C. That is some pretty abhorrent shit right there. We’re supposed to be better than that.

Last night my wife and I came up with a number of possible wingnut responses to OBL’s death:

– OBL wasn’t really that important anymore anyway, Obama is just trying to get votes

– funny how the announcement was timed such that it interrupted Celebrity Apprentice … is this whole thing just a ploy by Obama to defeat Trump?

– How do we know it’s really OBL? Do we have his long form birth certificate?

Of course, all wingnut responses to anything Obama does can always be reduced to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcZ9ku_wInw

‘We are not at war with Islam.’
‘He was not a Muslim Leader’

Driving the Syrians out of Lebanon in 2005 (in cooperation with the French, aheh heh) was a good move which I gave him credit for at the time. It’s a pity he didn’t follow up on it by forming stronger ties with Lebanon – he basically let the Israelis tear it apart the following year.

Not as sure what I think about Afghanistan, but I’m not knee-jerk against him there either.

Iran was mentioned above … this reminds me. Someone (was it McCaffrey or Haydon?) one of the networks had on was mentioning something about perhaps OBL was hiding in Iran. WTF?

Meanwhile excuses were being made about how long it took to find OBL in terms of “well, there were so many places to look”. It seems to me that OBL was pretty much where and under the circumstances most of us expected him to be (well, maybe in a suburb of a different city). As has been stated many a time, how hard is it to find a >6 foot d00d with a kidney problem and such a famous mug?

Yeah, we sort of had to go there. I don’t even know that I’d call it a decision. Even though, in the end, boy did he fuck that up too.

I’m sure he kissed a baby or three without eating them, too. I’m open to acknowledging anything he did right. I just couldn’t think of anything.

I’ll go with you on Lebanon. That, and he managed to not get into a war with Iran despite the wishes of so many of his ilk.

Of course the (ostensible) reason why the Israelis did what they did was they got tired of (Syrian backed) Hezbollah rocket fire. Seems to me that, whatever you think of Israel’s actions in this case, part of the problem is that, as usual, even when GW Bush was doing something right, he couldn’t manage to do anything better than a half-assed job of it: if the Syrians were really out of Lebanon, Hezbollah wouldn’t have been able to maintain its weaponry to attack Israel as it did.

Of course, Hezbollah also is the only real provider of “government” services for much of Lebanon, so even if GW Bush would have put his full ass into getting Syria out of Lebanon (as opposed to doing a half-assed job of it), Lebanon would be completely FUBAR. After all, the US has not had so much luck with nation-building in Iraq or Afghanistan, has it? Lebanon may not have benefitted from stronger ties to us during the presnitcy of he with the anti-Midas touch.

IMHO, the only thing (other than driving a gold ball, clearing brush, doing the meet and greet with soldiers* and catching fish) he did reasonably well was his appointment of Helicopter Ben.

They say gas prices will be going down because of his death . . . I just ?? the whole thing because he’s already been buried at sea . . . I think someone may have very well contrived the whole story and he’s setting up another attack somewhere. In the mean time, I will take the cheaper gas prices but what the hell does that have to do with him dying. Interesting . . . did you notice there’s only one letter different from OSama to OBama?

Afghanistan: If Bush had been even marginally competent, after being told that OBL was determined to attack in the US, he would have seen to it that we knew exactly where bin Laden was, & OBL could have been killed/captured him w/in a day or two of the attacks, rather than giving him close to a month to hide. But no, it took a month to organize a wholesale attack on Afghanistan, & then they outsourced bin Laden’s capture/death to locals who blew it, possibly deliberately.

One might argue that President Obama’s policies on fighting terror have more in common with President George W. Bush than with those of Bush’s leftist and liberal critics.

Not only did they try to wiggle out of all Bush’s clusterfucks by claiming “Bush was a liberal,” they’re now trying to claim credit for all of Obama’s victories by saying that “Obama was a conservative/acted like a conservative.”

(Funny, they never gave him any credit for “keeping the Bush policies” in Gitmo, military tribunals and all that until today – he was still a Muslim double agent secretly sympathizing with the enemy the entire time).

Today’s been a truly pathetic showing for conservative pundits. In fairness, I imagine a fair number of them have spent the last day and night crying themselves numb.

From the Red State archives: via whiskeyfire

Last summer, [Obama] also indicated that were he elected to the presidency, and were the US to obtain actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets within Pakistan, he would act unilaterally if President Musharraf did not. It was an amateurish enough error to earn Obama schooling from Sen. Biden (“The way to deal with it is not to announce it”), and was dismissed as downright irresponsible by Pakistan’s Foreign Minister. Yet Obama reiterated his commitment to unilateral action, under these circumstances, in Saturday’s debate. So not only did he exhibit a serious deficiency in judgment the first time round. It seems he still has not learned his lesson.

Instapundit has two running shticks: (1) Obama’s just like Bush (“they told me if I voted for McCain [something liberals don’t like would happen], and they were right!”), and (2) Obama will be the worst president ever (“best case scenario is a Carter rerun”).

Well, there are lots of theories about why Obama didn’t credit W much in his victory-lap speech: he’s an egomaniac, he wants to maximize his political advantage, he lacks graciousness, etc.

On the other hand, there is an explanation that doesn’t require psychoanalysis or political spin: W wasn’t any help. At all.

In fact, based on what I have observed about the prez, it not only would have been characteristic of him to credit Bush for contributions to the effort, doing so would have reinforced Obama’s self-portrayal as magnanimously bipartisan. I think the fact that he didn’t name-check W beyond the acknowledgment of his “not at war with Islam” statement speaks volumes not about Obama, but about Bush.

From BJ, an item that should be shared here (Don’t get any ideas, kids!):

An Alum Creek man has been arrested after neighbors allegedly found him fondling himself over the dead body of a stolen pygmy goat while wearing women’s underwear.
Mark Lucas Thompson, 19, of Greenview Road was taken into custody early Monday morning at his home where Kanawha Sheriff’s deputies were investigating the bloody scene. Thompson told deputies he had been high on “bath salts”—synthetic drugs—for the last three days, said Cpl. Sean Snuffer, a detective with the sheriff’s office.

***
Thompson ran out of the house into the wooded hillside after Pollis asked about the dead goat in the bedroom. Witnesses said he ran off wearing only a muscle shirt and thong underwear.

Cpl. M.B. Cummings and Sgt. R.P. Boone went to the Greenview Road home to help Shackelford with the investigation. The three officers went into Thompson’s home and found blood on the floor. In a bedroom they found women’s panties and tampons lying on the bed and fresh blood on the floor.

 
 

THE question, of course, now that HE is dead is: Where are the horcruxes?

I think we know that Bill Ayers, Al Gore, Shirley Sherrod, and Henry Louis Gates have one horcrux each but that leaves three unaccounted for. Obama’s personal horcrux may or may not be embedded in the presidential seal in the Oval office. Was that necklace that Michelle Obama wore at the WHCD the other day a horcrux? Did Flavor Flav give his to Spike Lee by mistake? Will Pamela Geller recognize the horcruxes when she sees them? Will Obama try to bring them together at next year’s Socialist Scholar’s conference? Questions. Lots of questions. It’s just beginning.

 
 

Speaking of zombies…I speculated over at my place that the burial at sea was in part done as zombie prophylactic. If Osama re-animated, his zombie body would be eaten by sharks long before it ever managed to swim to shore. As scary as zombies and Osama bin Laden are, imagine how much scarier a Zombie Osama bin Laden would be. Why take the chance?

I’d like to expand on that a bit though: I’d really love it if the White House would advance this rationale in response to the Deathers. First of all, it’s absurd enough that it might satisfy some of them. Secondly, if anyone complains about the ridiculous response, it’s an opportunity to say “stupid theories demand stupid responses.” It would be a nice one-two punch with the Birther nonsense that was slapped down last week.

 
 

You know what’s even scarier??? SATAN and Santa have all the same letters!!!! Woooo that’s scary.

 
 

DAMMIT, Jennifer!! I was working up a treatment for that movie!!

 
 

THE question, of course, now that HE is dead is: Where are the horcruxes?

Sorcery would be considered anathema to a Wahabbist. Hmmm… I wonder if there are any fatwahs against Rowling’s books… yeah, pretty much.

 
 

Also, Satan Claws, Bear.

 
 

Will Pamela Geller recognize the horcruxes when she sees them?

OMG, the horcruxes are Pammie’s implants!!!!

 
 

OMG, the horcruxes are Pammie’s implants!!!!

No,no. Horcuxes not whorecruxes.

 
 

Assuming each implant is an OBL horcrux, based on this photo, Pam Geller might have all of the horcruxes. (And that’s not counting that thing hanging from her ear. Hmmm, that ear thing might be zombie related.)

Dyslexic devil-worshipper sold his soul to Santa.

 
 

Thwarting the possibility of a zombie Bin Laden by feeding him to the sharks reminded me of something. I cataloged an interesting movie recently, constructed entirely from stock footage and conspiracy theories: Craig Baldwin’s “Tribulation 99: Alien Anomalies Across America.”

http://www.amazon.com/Tribulation-99-Craig-Baldwin/dp/B000IU37OS/ref=sr_1_1?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1304373553&sr=1-1

I couldn’t really watch the movie, only enough to do my job. But it looked pretty awesome in fast-forward, and what narration I DID hear was dryly funny. The CIA can’t kill what’s already dead, i.e. Castro.

“Upon its release in 1991, TRIBULATION 99 became an instant counter-culture classic. Baldwin’s ‘pseudo-pseudo-documentary’ presents a factual chronicle of US intervention in Latin America in the form of the ultimate far-right conspiracy theory, combining space aliens, environmental catastrophe, cattle mutilations, killer bees, religious prophecy, covert action, and just about every other crackpot theory under the sun. A juggernaut of hard truths, deadpan irony, and found-footage – industrials, graphs, cartoons, movies from Hollywood B to Mexican Z – TRIBULATION 99 constructs a truly perverse vision of American colonialism. “

 
 

No,no. Horcuxes not whorecruxes.

I was a T-ball pitcher once, you know!

Assuming each implant is an OBL horcrux, based on this photo, Pam Geller might have all of the horcruxes.

I could swear that John Bolton’s mustache is one of them.

Glenn Reynolds in the Wasington Examiner yesterday

Meanwhile, on foreign policy — another Carter weak point — Obama also looks worse. Carter blew it with Iran, encouraging the Iranian armed forces to stay in their barracks, while Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini’s radical Islamists (whom Carter thought of as “reformers”) took power, and then approved the ill-conceived hostage rescue mission that ended with ignominious failure in the desert. Obama, by contrast, could only wish for such success.

I don’t understand. How did Harper go from heading out to getting a majority? I glanced at the googles, yup, everyone is calling it for Harper.

The Conservatives were always going to win at least another minority. The government fell because of a non-confidence motion due to contempt of parliament, but that doesn’t necessarily translate to a lack of popular support.

BUT… As lately as this morning, the prediction was for a minority (130 seats or so) with a strong likelihood that it would all come down to the backroom deals leading to some kind of coalition (Conservative-Liberal or NDP-Liberal-Bloc were both possible). A 160+ seat Conservative majority is…a shock. I can’t imagine the death of bin Laden would cause this effect, but it’s the only thing that’s changed since yesterday, so maybe it did.

Also possible that the youth vote didn’t turn out as expected. I don’t know. It sucks though. It really does. I fear that the Conservatives real agenda is going to be an ugly, ugly thing and there is absolutely nothing (except the Supreme Court, and even that they can overrule if they want) that can stop them from doing whatever they want.

…160+ seat Conservative majority…

Noooooooo.

…an ugly, ugly thing…

Yup. Is there anything to stop them from, oh, deregulating natural resources, selling off state infrastructure, and, bonus, killing health care? They get four years to do what they want, right? I guess regional governments might turn left from the fallout but there’s only so much they do. Good luck. Are you sure you don’t need a war or two?

 
 

Perhaps Canada needs a few wars? We’ve got a couple of spares we can give you.

Well, the NDP (left wing party, for you Yanks) are the official minority for the first time since ever, and the Bloc (Quebec separatist party) are pretty much shit-canned.

That’s something, I guess.

Nope. They can do what they like.

They might be restrained by the desire to be re-elected, but that is a thin reed on which to place one’s hopes.

There will be tax cuts, weighted heavily towards rich people and corporations, with some bullshit about job creation and making Canada a welcoming place for investors. There will certainly not be any kind of meaningful environmental regulations or curbs on CO2. There will be moves towards “security harmonization”, which basically means putting the US Dept. of Homeland Security in charge of our borders and the US State Department in charge of our foreign policy. Abolishing national health care is probably a bridge too far, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if they set up some kind of parallel private system, slowly start cutting funding to the public system and wait for nature to take its course. They will start bleeding the Canada Pension Plan or try to privatize it. They might open the country up to private education corporations with some bullshit about accountability in higher education. I am most immediately worried about the rights of gay people, frankly. There are a lot of wingnuts in the Alberta wing of the Conservative party, and they really, really don’t like gay people.

Gay rights have been ruled on by the Supreme Court, but our Constitution grants the government the right to overrule the Supreme Court. It’s considered a suicidal move for a government, but who knows what these nutjobs will do? This is really, really bad.

They can’t do much about primary education, but there’s an awful lot of federal funding to universities, in terms of research funding if nothing else. They will do as much as they can get away with.

Looks like a Conservative majority in Soviet Canuckistan.

Oh, Canada. My home & native branch-plant.

40% = MAJORITY LOL LOL LOL

Shit is being disturbed here yet again: BQ is effectively wiped out & Liberals are nearly as hosed as the Conservatives were after Mulroney, while the NDP are now the opposition. That’s never happened before. The NDP had a radical lefty splinter-group circa 1970 called The Waffle (I shitteth thee not).

This wasn’t Harper’s victory – it was the Liberals’ clusterfuck.

This country will be unrecognizable after giving that dead-eyed motherfucker four years of nigh-dictatorial power.

Okay, not to harsh all over your angst-buzz, but I believe if you roll the tape back you’ll see that Harper has already been playing Generalissimo with childlike glee. For years. The other parties haven’t exactly been brutally gnawing at his hamstrings, to put it kindly.

Hope springs eternal that unlike Mulroney he’s neither devious enough to engineer something as dire as the “DEFICITS=SATAN” scam that radically buttfucked so many of our social & cultural institutions, nor endowed with enough aptitude to avoid being ratted out on by his own minions. He’s clued in enough to keep his jaw-dropping level of personal loathsomeness well away from the Tee-Vee cameras, but avoiding being hoist on his own hubris?

Watch.

 
 

Well, Osama died as he lived — drunk, listening to Patsy Cline records and making prank phone calls to Charles Krauthammer.

Actually, the proximate cause for his death is a little more prosaic than the teevee makes out.

 
 

Sorry about Canadistan, no one deserves Harper.
I am severely repulsed by the negative views of the OBL killing by the American right. They continue to plumb new depths of slime moldery. Note how they have forgotten the collective befouling of the knickers that took place in their ranks when BHO said he would go in to Pakistan if needed.

If Osama re-animated, his zombie body would be eaten by sharks long before it ever managed to swim to shore.

I know this is uncharitable as fuck but then again how many of our southern neighbors in Blue Country had the same reaction to the Bush years? Right now I want to rapatriate our orange representatives, build a new Parliament in Montreal and wall off Quebec so ROC can enjoy the hell of their own choosing… I suggest you guy move your own to Calgary to better represent what the new Canada stands for. The irony is that now with the Bloc wiped out that’s quite unlikely to happen in my lifetime…

The only silver lining is that in 4 years I get to tell my ‘vote Liberal instead of an unviable third party so the Cons don’t get a majority’ friends that they ought to vote strategic and thus vote NDP. Sorry again for uncharitability, but I don’t have much to live for this morning besides shaddenfreude. (Also, my standard response to ‘just hold your nose and vote Liberal’ was that as an anarchist I’m already holding my nose pretty tight just voting for the NDP.)

Also, if you ask me the likely reason for the Conservative majority is that a lot of so-called Liberals cared more about economic rapine, I mean free trade, than the Liberals’ much vaunted social liberalism, and decided to jump ship to the Cons (who they mostly agree with on economic issues, and just roll their eyes and chuckle at their retarded cousins whenever they say something about evil gays, abortions and evolutionists) because they got afraid of the Moustache Party getting a minority government.

re: four years of nigh dictatorial power

The term is five years, and with Harper’s deference and respect for Canadian democratic traditions, we won’t be voting at the tradition four year mark unless the opinion polls guarantees him a cakewalk.

A bit of a surprise in my riding – our incumbent Liberal of nearly two decades got turfed for a Conservative. I am genuinely surprised, I figured he was a shoo-in. Not surprised that the Conservative took it though, my slice of suburbia is firmly in Rob Ford country.

 
 

One of our media overlords, Mark Halperin, ran a piece yesterday wherein he stupidly failed to understand Limbaugh’s sarcasm. After making an idiot of himself, for the 3,114th time, Halperin scrubbed the site:

Now that Bin Laden has been killed and Al Queda decimated, Our Nation should bring our troops home. They are serving no useful purpose occupying and policing the Middle East. Unfortunately the leftists, both neocon and democrat seem to think that America’s role is that of global policeman rather than a Sovereign Nation that should be looking out for our own.

Their is an unchecked foreign invasion happening right now along our southern border. Our National Sovereignty has been violated repeatedly and hundreds of American citizens have been killed. But it seems our traitorous federal government cares more for the people of Libya than they do for their own kinsmen whom they have taken an oath to serve and protect.

Our Founding Father’s had it right when they warned against entangling alliances and foreign interventionism. We as a Nation need to defend and police our own borders and let the rest of the world fend for themselves.

Call John Cole! STAT!!!

It’s funny because it’s true.

 
 

Are we sure Rush Limbaugh even knows what sarcasm is?

Only in sense of hateful sarcasm, not any playful kind. That’s why Republicans can’t make a comedy show anymore than we can have a Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck (although Rachel is coming on strong…). Republicans can only be hateful, and that doesn’t work in comedy.

So “Where’s your Rush Limbaugh?” should be answered with “Where’s your Jon Stewart?”.

Kinda like “why are journalists so liberal?” Why is nobody worried that there are no hippie bankers?

 
 

” “Thank God for President Obama”

Oh. Yeah, that was sarcasm.

But it’s the unexpected turns that makes it funny. Republican comedy has to end up at the same place, so basically all they have to choose is what clothes to dress the chimps in. There’s no punchline, there can’t be – if you assume you already know all there is to know, then by definition you can’t be surprised (or more correctly, admit to being surprised…

So, a fake liberal that loses every argument he starts, Isn’t that Alan Colmes?

Sure, I can see them trying to set up a parody of what liberals stand for. The trouble is he’d just sit there all night talking about how much he hates America, how he’s a member of the Communist Party, how he’s a gay abortionist who also follows Sharia Law, how he’s got a grudge against Christianity and God knows what else (and not subtle like I made it sound).

Colbert works because he’s actually a spot-on parody of a right wing talk-show host (to the extent that a not-inconsiderable part of the Gooper base doesn’t realize he’s making fun of them). I can’t picture any rightie anywhere who could pull that off.

Additionally, behind the snark and sarcasm lies some pretty astute analysis of the discussion topics.

Apropos of nothing in particular, but the way this shot is set up makes O appear to be the smallest person the the room, and look like a turtle withdrawing into its shell.

The White House needs to get with the set decorator of the West Wing, or better yet, “24”. They need A lot more stuff in that room before I remotely begin to feel safe.

Now, we on the right should have no problem with shooting a terrorist — I don’t bat an eye — but lefties like Barry and his Code Pink/ACLU allies wanted Bush to be tried as an international war criminal for this type of conduct.

And what was the deal with giving OBL a respectful religious burial at sea? Now that, is an impeachable offense.

Biden, Obama, Clinton have a fiasco in Libya, a mess in Yemen, Syria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, North Korea, etc. Smart power is a disaster. Does Hillary still think the dictator in Syria is a ‘reformer’?

They all opposed in rhetorical political fashion, everything required to get Osama Bin Laden, and now they will prance as if they led the way.

Now they same few who lied about ‘sniper dodging’, ‘lobbyists’, ‘earmarks’, etc., are going to sell Americans on the idea their use of Unilateral Military Action on foreign soil within the borders of another Sovereign Nation!

Batman could easily beat up God. He wouldn’t even need any prep-time.

And the LORD was with Judah; and he drove out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron – Judges 1:19

God, like other magical beings (eg. Fairies) is hurt by cold iron. A perfect weakness for Batman to take advantage of.

I had to do so much fucking work to get the servers all patched so they understood what the real time was, that just pissed me off.

Not as sure what I think about Afghanistan, but I’m not knee-jerk against him there either.

Yeah, we sort of had to go there. I don’t even know that I’d call it a decision. Even though, in the end, boy did he fuck that up too.

Yeah, I definitely don’t give him credit for this. If he hadn’t actually stopped them from (probably) killing OBL at Tora Bora and then got bored with the place ’cause Iraq was so shiny, maybe he’d get some credit. But nope, in actuality, none.

As we now unfortunately know, starting wars is the fucking easiest thing in the world. Everybody’s doing it, it’s all the rage! Finishing them is a pain in the ass.

Last time I looked it wasn’t on YouTube, but The Committee’s closing bit yrs. ago (late ’60s) was all cast members on stage, as if at a ball game. All but one stand & begin to sing the nat’l. anthem. The singers notice, & begin urging the hold-out to stand up & sing, he doesn’t, they begin to poket him, & eventually knock him down & pantomime beating the shit out of him.

Now FOX repeats it, but means it, man!. History as farce. Or something.

a crowd of 30

How tiny does a room have to be for 30 to be considered a “crowd”?

An old trick for pols planning a rally is to book a large room that can be divided into smaller spaces with banquet room partitions. You start with all the partitions deployed, so that everyone who shows up has to squeeze into one segment of the larger room. If enough people show up, they will (reluctantly) roll back one wall at a time, so that each successively larger space still appears “packed” for the cameras.

So again, how small of a space had to be booked for Frothy’s rally? The men’s room? Maybe the handicapped stall?

 
 

If the look on Hillary Clinton’s face is genuine, she has no business anywhere near the Oval Office.

I just looked at the picture- assuming she’s watching a video of Bin Laden getting his head blown apart, what the fuck sort of look should she have on her face? She wasn’t watching a cheesy horror film, she was (we are told) watching actual human beings being killed. Is there any aspect of wingnut mentality that isn’t based on bad movies?

 
 

Dumbfucks. You place your hand over your heart while reciting the pledge, not while singing the anthem. Of course you can hold your hand over your heart while singing the anthem, but it’s not protocol. I don’t do it; it’s not my fault that there are stupid people who believe it’s required. These are the same folks who think church isn’t church if they aren’t swaying around with their arms overhead – or rolling on the floor gibbering “in tongues”.

If you’re a wingnut, only the ‘O’ face is appropriate for the killing of a terrorist.

Also, if the pictures came during the entry to the compound, she could be expressing concern for the safety of the team members. Pshyeah right…”concern.”

 
 

“Earlier in Iowa City, Santorum said it was rare for Obama to execute a plan to kill bin Laden when the president is usually indecisive and lacks conviction.”

“Bryce said…
Any thinking person who has not drank the “lame-stream” media’s kool-aid knows that Barack Obama was born in Kenya and is actually the love-child of Malcolm X. But he was elected President according to our constitution, did issue a legal order to kill OBL, and that order by the Commander in Chief was followed by men and women who are sworn to obey those orders, even at grave risk to their lives. It is pretty un-American to smear the brave men who carried out this raid on their Commander’s orders by saying they were acting unlawfully or illegally, or had committed treason. I am afraid I am going to have to stop reading this blog if you continue to slander soldiers who acted lawfully in a war. I am beginning to think you haven’t really thought through your positions in a reasoned manner. “

 
 

from usflag.org:

The Pledge of Allegiance and National Anthem
The pledge of allegiance should be rendered by standing at attention, facing the flag, and saluting.
When the national anthem is played or sung, citizens should stand at attention and salute at the first note and hold the salute through the last note. The salute is directed to the flag, if displayed, otherwise to the music.

 
 

tsam – it weren’t always so. My understanding is that “protocol” dates all the way back to 2008 – anyone wanna bet it was in response to Obama failing to place his hand over his heart during the anthem at one event, caught on film? You know, the picture that spawned the email rumor that Obama “refused” to hold his hand over his heart during the pledge? That would be my guess.

I was taught as a child by my WWII veteran father that the hand-over-heart thing was for the pledge and for the anthem, you stand and face the music or the flag as you sing along. I doubt you’d find many people my age or older who were taught differently when they were coming up.

Jennifer;

I hope I didn’t come across sounding pedantic or snotty or trying to prove you wrong. I had to look it up, and I’m sure you’re correct about it being new. I just didn’t want anyone to get owned on Fox…

I ALMOST left a snotty comment on Fox, had it typed up and ready, and luckily was taken with urge to make damn sure I was right.

There’s a good mix of patriots and America-haters at this 2000 World Series anthem presentation. Though to be fair, some of the America-haters weren’t actually hating on America, but on Billy Joel’s performance.

Ok, that’s enough. Obviously this strain of America-hating goes even deeper than the good patriots at Fox ever dreamed. If they have to censor themselves from “supporting” America-haters by withholding their eyeballs, they may never be able to watch a sporting competition again.

I am getting real effing sick of Fox Sports Prime Ticket showing the singing of “Gawd Bless America” during the seventh-inning stretch at Dodger home games, especially when it just “coincidentally” happens to be sung by some fuck-stick who’s been on American Idol.

I note that this shit didn’t happen during the Angels game in Beantown today.

Not having been to a ball park in about 20yrs., is the singing of “GBA” during the stretch now sadly traditional everywhere?

There are not enough pixels to express the white-w/-the-heat-of-a-thousand white-dwarf-suns (Not actually that hot, are they?) hate I have for all human existence, but in the specific case of these United Snakes, hypocrisy of the first water would be reason number one.

And it pisses off Andrew Breitbart, who may be reason #2.

 
 

And it started after September 11th, another of the many rituals we indulged ourselves in.

 
 

I will not even start on the fact that the Dodgers (sort of) owner is a fucking carpet-bagger parking lot attendant from your neck of the woods.

There’s already talk about transition to a public/private hybrid style of healthcare rather than the current Socialist system, along with a bill recognizing the personhood of unborn children and a massive cut in the corporate tax rate.

Aheheheh. I remember someone at the PJTV (or maybe it was the NRO) after the bailouts screaming that Obama was just like the trusts and that we shouldn’t allow “this unholy alliance of business and government.” I’m sure he’ll switch parties the MINUTE he hears about this, whoever it was…

The fucking Ho called late this post mittag saying our dinner with some guys I think I met once is cancelled. SO I HAVE TO MAKE DINNER. Wel that wasn’t in my plans and I haven’t been out to do my grocery shopping so HE WILL JUST HAVE TO TAKE WHATEVER THE FUCK HE GETS.

I’m riffing on Salisbury steak, which is one of those things that has sadly gone away. I mean, it’s fucking pate, basically, or meatloaf if you’re a real murkan. I had some ground chuck in the freezer (which I ground the last time I bought a whole beef shoulder clod) and some dried mushrooms in the pantry. Along with the last of the beef stock from last time I made a big batch and froze it in cup-size containers. So, ground chuck, the ground-up stale bread sitting there and soaked in milk, an egg, diced onions, choppped reconstituted dried wild mushrooms, lotsa diced onion and some herbs. And the last of the fresh flat leaf parsley, minced. Form int o patties, sautE lightly then into the oven with the veloute – pureed garlic, roux, beef stock, more herbs. I might finsh it with fontina, whattaya tink? Red potatoes, steamed and smashed with butter and chives. Luckily I have some haricots vert sitting in the crisper.

For a brief moment, “America the Beautiful” was a contender. I think the Seattle Mariners played it in the 7th inning stretch the first game after 9/11. But then GBA eclipsed everything.

Aha! Finally, a brave soul gets into the meat of things!

Abraham Lincoln famously observed that “a house divided cannot stand.” The same can be said of a government or nation that seeks simultaneously to defeat an enemy and assist it.

And no, he isn’t just talking about our relations with corrupt governments like Pakistan or Egypt’s: what really, really bugs him is that “cabinet officers, law enforcement personnel, military leaders, and intelligence operatives have systematically engaged in “outreach” to the Muslim-American community via known U.S.-based Muslim Brotherhood front organizations. In so doing, these groups have been legitimated, enabled to engage in successful influence operations, and emboldened in their bid to achieve the same end-state to which al-Qaeda and other violent jihadists aspire: our submission to shariah.”

But we know the traitor in chief is a traitor in chief! We know it! Why won’t anyone believe us?

It is one of the biggest dividing lines between liberals and conservatives: sensitivity. Liberals are supposed to be the sensitive ones, but even the liberals who worked themselves into a froth over George W. Bush never really cared very much about what he thought of them. But conservatives care what President Obama thinks. They care to the point of imagining what he thinks.

I know i shouldn’t, but Pammycakes commenters are just plain mental, either that, or its a bunch of Sadly No type deep level trolling. One example:

You are ignorant. Who cares about the “differences” between various inbred clans of murderers? They all work out of the same 7th century book of repressive government dictated by satan to the lunatic mohammed (piss be upon him). Their entire goal is to enslave the world and kill people that won’t convert. pisslam is not a religion.

They violate their own evil handbook, they are not supposed to kill other muslims.
So you can add hypocrite to the long list of murder, misogyny, baby raping, stoning, beheading, cannibalism, every evil sin known to mankind, that’s their normal behavior.
They should be exterminated like the rabid scum they are.

I commented ‘peace be upon you’, but I doubt it will stay up

 
 

To be fair, I’ve unfriended conservatives on facebook because of politics before. Never anyone close, but when it’s “I hardly ever talk to this guy but every time I refresh there’s a new word-vomit stain on the carpet of my minifeed,” it’s just not worth keeping up the facebook friendship, so bye bye…

 
 

They violate their own evil handbook, they are not supposed to kill other muslims.

I’ve seen that argument before. Usually from Christian fundies, the missionary types. “Muslims don’t follow their own religion, therefore their religion’s evil. QED, you heathens!”

Fucking logic, how does it work?

 
 

I can take a lot of shit, but when I was accused of hating Canada, ’cause I think the tory’s will be real bad for Canada, that was the final fucken straw. I still can’t believe that they said it.

I haven’t read the thread. I’m sure this is noted already, but, it’s a long thread so it might be worth repeating for other people who don’t read all the comments.

Only a tiny fraction of moslem women wear Burkhas (basically just in Afghanistan). More typical would be a hijab which just covers the hair in addition to, you know, the sort of clothes Ms Geller wears.

If she didn’t see a hijab in the celebrating crowd in front of the White House, then we can conclude that she didn’t glance at http://www.washingtonpost.com as there was a photo of a woman in a hijab in front of the White House on their page A1. The article included an interview with a an American moslem woman who said how glad she was that Osama was dead.

Her drawing inferences from a guess about what is happening in Washington which was proven to be incorrect on the front page of The Washington Post should re-settle the question of whether Geller has anything useful to contribute to any debate on any question which has anything to do with reality and facts.

At least she is sincere. She wouldn’t have staked her argument on whether there were women in muslim dress celebrating outside of the White House if she weren’t sincerely sure that there weren’t. She clearly really was certain that no Muslims celebrated the death of Osama Bin Laden. She is hateful and delusional but not a cynical liar.

 
 

I want to point out 2 things:
As SEALs and not Marines, the correct exclamation would be “Hooyah” and not “Oorah”, proving yet again that Pam does not know anyone actually involved with military, nor can she be bothered to read;
