You Probably Also Think that Africa isn’t a Country

I don’t tend to do shorters, but sometimes you just have to throw your hands up and post it anyways, because you just can’t believe the argument is that inane.

As such:

Shorter Daniel Horowitz, FascistState:
Newt Gingrich Tells the Truth About the Palestinian Non-Entity

    • Palestinians are just a delusion of the liberal mind and its desire to hurt Israel.
  • Yeah.

    I fucking dare you to get off the boat.

    Oh and a taste of what you are in for?

    The Palestinians are the global warming climate change of geopolitical conflict. They use deceptive parlance to advance their agenda. Thankfully, Newt is speaking the truth, instead of worshiping at the altar of the pan-Islamists in the UN.

    Newt Gingrich is just as right on Palestine as he is about climate change! Also the UN is controlled by Muslims who probably also planted all those fake fossil records for evolution. The sky is green and the Freemasons control my teeth!

    I…I…just.

    Sorry people, I’m out.

    But as apology, please enjoy what this douche uses as a twitter logo:

    Mike Huckabee says the same thing, IIRC–no such thing as Palestinians.

    Yeah, just because your ancestors have lived in a certain place for generations doesn’t mean you have the right to hang around. Let’s take over Mexico, because what the hell, they’re all brown-skinned and speak Spanish so they’ll fit right in when they push them into South Murrica or whatever that place is.

     
     

    Daniel Horowitz is just trying to stay relevant. Which he is having a hard time doing, as the right wing is stampeding past his Islamist alarmism. It used to be a person could get reviled as a bigot for saying horrible things about all of the practitioners of a large religion. But in the current media climate, that isn’t shocking enough. Horowitz is actually going to have to demand genocide if he wants to keep his rep as the most Islam-hating guy in the room.

     
    address my envelope, lips!
     

    Annex Canada! Whoever heard of Canadians anyway?

     
     

    Let’s take over Mexico

    Isn’t this how we got California?

    And that logo – if you took out everything except the elephant and the teacup, and put it over a photo of Newt so that the elephant is looking at Newt with that cross expression, it might be saved as a visual.

    I always feel sorry for elephants, socialistic and feminist creatures that they are, being co-opted by the most idiotic personalities in the US. When Nast used the elephant he wasn’t being complimentary, but that’s no excuse to keep maligning one of the nicest creatures on the planet.

     
     

    Isn’t this how we got California?

    No, we bought California fair and square.

    That is, after the Mexicans refused our first offer and we added the little sales incentive of invading Mexico City.

     
    address my envelope, lips!
     

    Isn’t this how we got California?

    I think we bought parts of Cali from the Spanish. Virginia, though, we just walked in and took. (Along with Texas, when it was deemed convenient.)

    Louisiana and Alaska, though, we bought, fair and square.

    Wait, what? You mean there were people living there already who had no say in the purchase and received no monies from same?! Did they have a flag? Well, then.

    Everyone knows there is no such thing as a “Texan”. They are just a part of the larger American community, who happen to live in Texas. There’s simply no rational reason to assume that the so-called Texans couldn’t be assimilated into the population of the greater United States (initially in refugee camps and shelters, but that shouldn’t last for more than a generation or three). So when the Mexicans seek to reclaim this territory, referred to by the squatters who have eked out a living there as “Texas”, there should be absolutely no international outcry for the displacement of the “Texan peoples”, right?

    i beg to differ…i lived there for a couple of years, and things like ‘assimilation’ to anything normal seems like a tall order for most of them…

     
     

    That elephant looks like he’s watching an off-panel orgy, and half disgusted and half wondering whether he should join in.

    Juan Cole weighed in on this yesterday:

    You could make all the same assertions about Albanians that Gingrich made about Palestinians. There was no Albanian state in antiquity. They were ruled by the Byzantine, Bulgarian, Serbian and Ottoman Empires. There was no Albanian province under the Ottomans.

    But Gingrich does not assert that the Albanians are not a nation. It is not necessary to denationalize the Albanians. None of Gingrich’s campaign contributors wants to make the Albanians stateless and homeless and steal all their land and property.

    Now now. There’s nothing wrong with Texas – except that it’s full of Texans.

     
     

    according to my mother, you can buy a ‘chifforobe’ at ikea…she came up with that word after remembering ‘what the colored guy broke up for the girl in to kill a mockingbird?’

    *sigh* There’s everything wrong with Virginia. I can’t work out why these lovely lovely people (seriously, I haven’t met an asshole since I moved here) can be racist without thinking and keep voting in Republicans whose contempt for 90% of Virginia and its needs is palpable.

     
     

    I wonder how long it’s going to take for GOPpers to decide they need a new mascot once they figure out that elephants are (gasp!) vegetarians.

    I nominate…WOLVERINES! Or weasels.

     
     

    Isn’t this how we got California?

    IIRC you used the “Afghan gambit”, whereby a band of possibly-legal Anglo immigrants staged a revolution against the central government and declared independence as the Bear Republic, which they then invited the US to annex.

     
     

    Oh, if we are doing the long game then there is no such thing as the USA. You’ve only been around since 1776.

     
     

    according to my mother, you can buy a ‘chifforobe’ at ikea…she came up with that word after remembering ‘what the colored guy broke up for the girl in to kill a mockingbird?’

    We had to read that book in high school. I remember there was a longer discussion among my classmates about the word chifforobe and what the hell a chifforobe was than about anything actually important about that book.

     
     

    Red Meat would be a great name for an S&M club?

    Or….

     
     

    now she just used the phrases ‘the i-chat’ (which is really fb) and leaving a message on ‘the message machine’ in back to back sentences…

     
     

    I”d be glad to help bust up that chifforobe for yer ma, bbkf.

     
     

    I remember there was a longer discussion among my classmates about the word chifforobe and what the hell a chifforobe was than about anything actually important about that book.

    It’s a portmanteau of chiffonier and wardrobe.

    It also played a prominent role in Pride of der Nazis the Yankees. Gehrig’s mom had a chiffofetish.

    A chiff-o-tine would be cool.

     
     

    One could argue that ethnic cleansing is a foundational value for the US, so Gingrich and Huckabee are merely returning to tradition when they set out to make it a key element of US foreign policy.

     
     

    There’s nothing wrong with Illinois except for its government. And the Bears.

    I was in Paris around this time last year. Saw a couple on a scooter get hit by a car in a busy intersection downtown.

    The rider was able to walk, but he was limping pretty bad.

    The female passenger was laying in the street screaming in French and holding her (presumably broken) ankle. I didn’t want to try to move her, not knowing how bad she was injured.

    So Idiot-boy here was standing in one of the busiest intersections in Paris directing traffic around the whole mess until some Gendarmes showed up and called the paramedics.

     
     

    Fried with tomato & haloumi.

    Marry me. I’ll take Frau Doktorin on, I will!

    Mike Huckabee says the same thing, IIRC–no such thing as Palestinians.

    Yep. He also thought the West Bank should belong to Israel and if the Palestinians needed a homeland, they should just move to Egypt or Jordan and carve it out of their territory. Hellllllo, Trail of Tears. Helllllllo, recreating the exact same problem just a few miles from where it is now.

    Someone on Balloon Juice once said that Huckabee was the kind of politician they could easily imagine loading non-Christians onto cattle cars, which to me really captures the essence of the guy. Apparently, Newt Gingrich is now on that bandwagon too. But Huckabee would do it because he’s a True Believer… Newt would do it for ratings.

     
     

    Actually my holy book clearly states that the whole region belongs to me.

    I am, however, a reasonable person. I’ll settle for two blocks of prime beachfront property in Tel Aviv.

    which part of pizza are you concerned about? ’cause if you’re not doing some sort of low-carb thing a margherita pizza (just tomato, basil, and mozzarella, and more emphasis on the first two ingredients) might be a nice way to move away from gooey fatty deep-dish…

     
     

    Jeez, Israelis’ own holy book says their patriarch came from Ur, which is NOT where Palestine is i.e. even in their own mythology they are interlopers. Plus there are multiple maps and mentions of Palestine that predate the modern state of Israel’s creation, do they expect people to just ignore centuries upon centuries of proof that contradicts their “IMAGINARY PEEPULS!” claim?

    And BOO to OBS for beating me to posting Red Meat comic. BOO I SAY.

    You want to know what pain sufficient to want to expatriate for the chance to work in a car wash anywhere but Fort Worth, Texas, when you’re seven years old feels like? It’s having to sing the following song every morning at your militantly regimented school after singing the National Anthem along with Pat Boone, saying the Pledge of Allegiance, and saying the Lord’s Prayer:

    Texas, Our Texas
    Written by William J. Marsh and Gladys Yoakum Wright
    Composed by William J. Marsh

    Texas, Our Texas! all hail the mighty State!
    Texas, Our Texas! so wonderful so great!
    Boldest and grandest, withstanding ev’ry test
    O Empire wide and glorious, you stand supremely blest.

    Texas, O Texas! your freeborn single star,
    Sends out its radiance to nations near and far,
    Emblem of Freedom! it set our hearts aglow,
    With thoughts of San Jacinto and glorious Alamo.

    Texas, dear Texas! from tyrant grip now free,
    Shines forth in splendor, your star of destiny!
    Mother of heroes, we come your children true,
    Proclaiming our allegiance, our faith, our love for you.

    God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong,
    That you may grow in power and worth, throughout the ages long.
    God bless you Texas! And keep you brave and strong,
    That you may grow in power and worth, throughout the ages long.

    In the fourth grade I knew who Madelaine Murray O’Hair was and that she was the reason we didn’t have to go through that dawg-awful indoctrination ritual every single school morning, and the reason why we girls could start wearing pants to school (the school insisted they be pantsuits) instead of always having to choose between going for the shot whenever we played boys vs. girls in gym class (which we always did and being mocked mercilessly because someone saw our underwear. I was shamed and sent home from school for wearing shorts under my dress. For once, my mother defended me and tore the gym teacher a new asshole for shaming a girl for trying to act like an athlete while avoiding the bog standard shaming for having girl parts; even though she hated Ms. O’Hare (and I just kept my mouth shut about how greatful I was to her).

    Thanks elder baby boomers for ending that bullshit and letting me kick the shit out of boys in sports for a few years.

    I have favorites based on genre and decade; very few of which have been mentioned here.

     
     

    Better than “The Godfather Part II”?

    I grew up in a Sicilian neighborhood, so let me weigh in here.

    I think 2 is better than the original, but the original was, well, so original, it’s like how many people love Episode IV: A New Hope, but EpVI is much, much better.

    The first movie was required viewing, over and over, mostly because, you know, many of da guys was portrayed in it. Part II? Not so much.

    Me, I enjoyed the backstory in Part II more than the contemporary (because many of the incidents were based on real life stuff that the local crew knew about or was involved with.)

     
     

    Those Jesus toasters are pretty disappointing. Why can’t the toast spring out of a big Jesus-head? Now, that would be impressive.

     
     

    I agree that Part II is outstanding. But, no Brando.

    – Brando, + DeNiro, is pretty close to a wash in my book, but you have a point.

    Wiley, I’m a little late asking this, but…how the hell did you ever have time to learn anything?

    Me too – preferred it to both Part I and the rest of Part II (still haven’t seen III).

    The whole thing’s pretty good, but there’s just something more engaging about watching the Corleone crew as working stiffs trying to make ends meet than when they’re rich and powerful and living in mansions.

     
     

    People get drunk. People have sex. You can’t explain it.

    Funny you mention that, because I was just thinking that getting drunk might make it more likely for a person to fall down. Does anyone have a link for that? Seen a study? Or review?

    Don’t. You’ll ruin any goodwill you have towards Coppola.

    On the other hand, there’s a lot to be said (it’s true of sections of II, as well) for the metaphor between that era and the current corporatocracy.

    For example, the way Hyman Roth literally slices up Cuba…

     
     

    Thanks, Substance. I was just cleaning out the fridge and I have 8 pounds of archangel bowl laying around &

    How did I ever have have time to learn anything? I could read before I went to school. Didn’t go to kindergarten. I bugged my parenting units to tell me what street signs said and to play reading games I made up when we were on the road. With that and cereal boxes I figured out.

    The only teacher who didn’t love me was my first grade teacher. She hated me. Before school started the parent and child had to meet with the teacher. Mrs. (Preggers) Gray asked me to spell a word that sounded exactly like the word for the color “red.” Feeling proud of my ability to read AND spell, I said, “r-e-d”. She said, “I meant the other “read.”” It was clear from the start that this woman was teaching school out of love for children and helping to nurture developing minds

    We had to really moronic things like walk up to a chart and point to the color yelow—-

    I’ll write about it more on my own blog. Jeez. I’ve been reading my writing, editing it, writing more, and looking for stuff I’ve written for six hours. Soon, clouds is going to install ubuntu and kubuntu on my computer and the migration will begin in earnest.

    I got some stories about Pregger Bitch and Mrs. Bolton who spent most of every class preaching fire and brimstone. Apparently she had some brain glitch that kept her stuck in Revelations for the better part of EVERY school day. Certifiable.

    Not that masturbation is so bad. A 1988 study found that genital self-stimulation increases pain thresholds and produces an analgesic effect in women, and a 2003 study linked masturbation to a reduction in prostate-cancer risk, which the researchers attributed to ejaculation frequency. But a subsequent study failed to confirm the relationship and, no doubt to the chagrin of many men, concluded that prostate cancer risk was unrelated to a man’s ejaculation count. (Some studies suggest a link between sex and breast cancer, too: One found a reduced risk of breast cancer among women who’d had multiple sexual partners, though another found that women who’d had children fathered by different partners did not have a lessened risk of the disease.)

    this may be so, but don’t let that crazy sheila chick from canada find out…then she’ll have to rant again about how sex toys and masturbation take you away from jesus and your partner!!!

    There is only one possible choice.

    It’s a timeless tale of epic conflict, one that tears at the heart – because both protagonists are known & loved by all.

    A saga of combat mythological in scale, gargantuan enough to shock & amaze the entire world, yet able to zoom in to portray the unremembered intimate moment from one ordinary day that might be a motif for humanity itself.

    A parable dancing on a tightwire between tragedy & comedy, mesmerizing the viewer with the beauty of that dance.

    Well, SAW-REEEE, but not all of us have connections or trade skills to fall back on (unless you count landscaping, which most don’t)…

    From the sidebar of that same New Scientist page: Police can identify suspect’s eye colour from DNA. Why haven’t they always been able to do this?
