Tell Me A story

From the Army Times:

7 Advise and Assist Brigades, made up of troops from BCTs, still in Iraq.

As the final convoy of the Army’s 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, based at Fort Lewis, Wash., entered Kuwait early Thursday, a different Stryker brigade remained in Iraq.

Soldiers from the 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team of the 25th Infantry Division are {being} deployed in Iraq as members of an Advise and Assist Brigade, the Army’s designation for brigades selected to conduct security force assistance.

So while the “last full U.S. combat brigade” have left Iraq, just under 50,000 soldiers from specially trained heavy, infantry and Stryker brigades will stay, as well as two combat aviation brigades.

You can't believe a thing Obama says. If he's on TV, or a stage somewhere with his teleprompters, if his mouth is moving, he's lying.

What about all those roughly 120,000 "for hire" mercenaries we have over there? They're not going anywhere and are estimated to double in number now that "real" soldiers are pulling out.

50,000 troops still in Korea.
Tens of thousands still in Japan.
Thousands more in Germany.
And now, 50,000 more in Iraq, also intended to remain there forever.

We have something like 180,000 American troops on foreign soil. Doing what? Keeping the peace? Yeah, that's working out real well. They will do nothing to prevent Israel from attacking Iran, WW3's estimated trigger point.

The hardnuts reality:

American troops in Iraq is not the real problem... The Jews in Palestine are. That a few million Jewish Americans and a few million more Old Testament Christians think differently will - in the end - make no difference.

In case you haven't noticed - the Muslims are taking over Western Civilization everywhere. They will eventually nullify the present massive support for Israel at its source, and then move to remove the Jews from Palestinian soil. Isreal will - of course - do whatever is possible to try to survive.

In the end, Israel will use its hidden stock of nukes in a final attempt to play out it's biblical stage show, taking countless millions of innocents with them.

An unintended positive in all this... It will eliminate all the nuclear weapon stockpiles around the world. That they will be used is a only a minor inconvenience. The few surviving cavemen will be totally free of fear from nuclear attack.

Quietly Waiting...

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) on Friday brushed aside a key piece of evidence in the ethics case against her as "staff chatter."

Staff chatter.

It will be a fine day indeed when this disgusting example of an out-of-control ego, this example of unbounded arrogance and chicanery gets convicted and tossed out of office.

Oh, for the good old days, when they used to toss rotten vegetables at this kind of human chaff and then ride them out of town - tarred and feathered - on a rail.

I'm patient, I'll wait as long as necessary.

Maddogs And Congresswomen In The Noonday Sun

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for an investigation of those who are protesting the building of the Ground Zero Mosque. Said this madwoman:

There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded.

How typical of her... She thinks that the opposition must be "funded" by someone, some group or another. It can't possibly be a spontaneous upwelling of anger by ordinary Americans to an obvious slap in the face by our oh-so-touchy Muslim "friends".

We are told we must be totally responsive to all those Muslim sensitivities, allow them to practice Sharia law in the United States, let their women hide behind veils and masks, cut the noses and ears off defiant women(typical Muslim activity) stone them to death or kill them in the name of family "honor", etc., etc., etc.

The poor little dears get all excited if they don't have their way.

But it's a two-way street. If they demand all that kid-glove treatment, we can demand the same from them... Go build your mosque somewhere else.

Otherwise, those guys can all go screw themselves.

But then, they already do that. That must be why San Francisco - Based Pelosi likes them so much... all that man-on-man sex. (None of them will ever attack her)

Abraham Lincoln wanted to ship every black in America back to Africa. No sense trying to deny it, it's all in the official records.

He shared the conviction of most Americans of his time, that blacks could not be assimilated into white society. He rejected the notion of social equality of the races, and held to the view that blacks should be resettled abroad.

Turns out he was right. But he never imagined that in a hundred years, whites would be assimilating into a black society.

Maybe we can get Barry Sotero to conclude that Muslims are no different - that they will not assimilate - and should be shipped back to wherever they came from.

You know... Like the twenty million Mexican illegals we have busily non-assimilating in America today.

White Christians are rapidly losing this nation to both the Muslims and the Mexicans. The only question remaining is: Which of those two will win?

And crazy madwoman Pelosi is helping both.

Gotta wonder what she thinks her reward will be.

The American of the future: A dark-skinned religious fanatic that quotes sharia law with a Mexican dialect that occasionally slips into Ebonics whenever a (by then) rare white woman bimbos by.

... With a Chinese overlord.

Go team.

The Closet Muslim Speaks

Said our Muslim-in-Chief Friday:

Let me be clear: As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right ... to build a place of worship and a community centre on private property in Lower Manhattan.

This was not a slip of the tongue, or a poor choice of words. The man was raised a Muslim. He has Muslim ideas, Muslim beliefs and Muslim sensitivities. That he presently claims to be a Christian means nothing... That's only necessary cover. Just look at his twenty years with that America- hating radical,"Reverend" Wright, who's "church" he spent his Sundays in.

Now, he has backtracked over his support for plans to build a mosque near Ground Zero, not because of a change of heart, but because of the huge uproar over his comments.

But Obama will not change his position. He will just waffle a bit until the uproar settles down. This man is no American. This latest gaff only further supports that statement.

I'll bet one thing:

If this Mosque gets built - or maybe even started - it's going to be burned down.

So How Old Was The Airplane?

One passenger was killed when an airplane crashed in bad weather and split into two when landing early Monday on the island of San Andres, Colombia, officials said.

Actually, it broke apart into three pieces.

This plane broke apart just forward of the wings and just aft of the wings, points where the most stress and strain is placed on the fuselage. I'll bet serious money that if proper inspections had been conducted, they would have found stress cracks and fractures at those points.

A point to ponder... Airlines like this one buy used planes from major carriers, after those carriers determine the airframe has reached a point where they are no longer considered safe - without expending an excessive amount of money on maintenance. So they peddle them to overseas carriers that have little or no concern about the age or the number of takeoff/landing cycles of the plane, carriers that may consider a proper inspection consists of signing off on a few pieces of paperwork.

This particular plane was a Boeing 737-700. Just how old? I was riding 737's a quarter-century ago.

131 people gambled their lives on this typical south-of-the-border airline operator.

130 were incredibly lucky.

Want to go to Columbia? Take the Titanic... Your chances of getting there alive will be better.

Surprise, Surprise

Liar is as liar does:

President Obama has abolished the position in his White House dedicated to transparency and shunted those duties into the portfolio of a partisan ex-lobbyist who is openly antagonistic to the notion of disclosure by government and politicians.

Don't be shocked... This progressive dirt bag has reversed positions on just about everything he promised as a candidate.

As a child, I used to get whipped for lying. To my parents then - and to me now - lying was one of the worst things I could do. It broke the bonds of trust between us and made anything I said suspect. My parents would not tolerate lying, and taught me the same virtue.

Now we have presidents and politicans of all stripes everywhere lying to us about everything. We can't trust them. To me, they are all lying scum, unworthy of any postion of public service.

Lying repeatedly like they do should be an impeachable offense.

Toss the bums out. All of them.

The Sun Is Setting In The West

That's just about enough.

Right? Wrong.

A job is not a "right". It is something you prove you deserve by demonstrating your experience and education for whatever a particular job requires.

We gotta get off this "rights" bandwagon. No one has a "right" to a job, or to own a home, or a car, or anything else.

We have a "Right" to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, but no guarantee whatever on any of them.

Nothing about a job. You gotta earn that for yourself.

Somebody needs to tell that witless fool that sitting on her butt holding a sign declaring that a job is a "right" will absolutely guarantee that no employer will give her a seconds notice, or a job either.

Newsweek Magazine Bought for $1.00

Hmmm, didn't think it was worth that much...

91-year-old audio magnate, Sidney Harman, purchased Newsweek for $1.00, plus the assumption of liabilities for the magazine.

I guess it was like going to an auction or a garage sale and seeing something you just had to have, the cost being no object.

Gee. I wish I had enough resources to be able to toss money around like that.

Excuses, Excuses

A Sydney woman jailed for stabbing her 18-year-old younger sister to death following a fight over internet access and a hair straightener was found dead in her prison cell yesterday.

The 22-year-old woman suffered from the mood-altering condition congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which leads to excess production of testosterone, and by August 2008 had the testosterone levels of an adult male.

Justice Elizabeth Fullerton found her mental state compromised her perceptions and her capacity to control herself or distinguish right from wrong.

Wait a minute... Having the testosterone levels of an adult male leads to the inability to control ones self or to distinguish right from wrong?

If so, why hasn't every adult male on earth gone over the cliff?

What a bunch of nonsense. We are supposed to believe in the absolute ability of women to act more mature and reasonable than men, that girls mature earlier, yadda yadda, but if they have to contend with a man's normal level of testosterone, it all goes out the window?

Justice Elizabeth Fullerton. Following her reasoning, us guys should have all stabbed our younger brothers to death and been dead by suicide by age 22.

That, or women - things being truly equal - can't handle situations and emotions nearly as well as we have been led to believe.

But you already knew that. It's just been unacceptable to discuss it.

The Walrus Came from Washington

Pinal County (Ariz.) Sheriff Paul Babeu:

Our own government has become our enemy and is taking us to court at a time when we need help."

Mind-boggling. The federal government is siding with the likes of the ACLU, La Raza and other wholly racist groups.

So says the Sheriff. What did the founders say?

They said it all our Declaration of Independence:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.

The Walrus and The Carpenter
Lewis Carroll, Thru the Looking Glass

The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright--
And this was odd, because it was
The middle of the night.


The moon was shining sulkily,
Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
After the day was done--
"It's very rude of him," she said,
"To come and spoil the fun!"


The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead--
There were no birds to fly.


The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
"If this were only cleared away,"
They said, "it would be grand!"


"If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose," the Walrus said,
"That they could get it clear?"
"I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.


"O Oysters, come and walk with us!"
The Walrus did beseech.
"A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk,
Along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four,
To give a hand to each."


The eldest Oyster looked at him,
But never a word he said:
The eldest Oyster winked his eye,
And shook his heavy head--
Meaning to say he did not choose
To leave the oyster-bed.


But four young Oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat--
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn't any feet.


Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more--
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.


The Walrus and the Carpenter
Walked on a mile or so,
And then they rested on a rock
Conveniently low:
And all the little Oysters stood
And waited in a row.


"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
Of cabbages--and kings--
And why the sea is boiling hot--
And whether pigs have wings."


"But wait a bit," the Oysters cried,
"Before we have our chat;
For some of us are out of breath,
And all of us are fat!"
"No hurry!" said the Carpenter.
They thanked him much for that.


"A loaf of bread," the Walrus said,
"Is what we chiefly need:
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed--
Now if you're ready, Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed."


"But not on us!" the Oysters cried,
Turning a little blue.
"After such kindness, that would be
A dismal thing to do!"
"The night is fine," the Walrus said.
"Do you admire the view?


"It was so kind of you to come!
And you are very nice!"
The Carpenter said nothing but
"Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf--
I've had to ask you twice!"


"It seems a shame," the Walrus said,
"To play them such a trick,
After we've brought them out so far,
And made them trot so quick!"
The Carpenter said nothing but
"The butter's spread too thick!"


"I weep for you," the Walrus said:
"I deeply sympathize."
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.


"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

All us little fat little oysters have arrived... Except for this old oyster.

With What?

President Barack Obama says it's time for the embattled 80-year-old former Ways and Means Chairman to end his career "with dignity."

This classic congressional con artist has been charged with 13 ethics violations. It's not just 13 instances, but hundreds of instances lumped into 13 categories.

If Obama thinks that resigning under a cloud like this is ending a career "with dignity", what must his standards of ethics be?

My vote says he has none. But you already knew that.
