Livin' In America

Well, I'll be damned! There may be life in the old dog yet.

Well, there goes Canada.

I'm afraid we'll have to try closing the Northern border soon, too.

Pity, that. I liked Canadians. Well, before they turned Muslim, anyway.

I admire the enthusiasm, and the message.

"What your unfortunate allies are saying is that it is more important to eliminate the Jewish state than it is to create a Palestinian one."

What do Democrats want?

I'd pay to see that movie. I mean, while drunk, naturally.

This is an interesting bit about how the Fourth Estate bends stories to fit its biases.

Oh, and the consequences.

Alternative headline: Imams Look For Nutters To Carry Out Suicide Missions.

Wasn't there a story a while back about imams recruiting Down's Syndrome kids to be suicide bombers in Israel? Is this a pattern?

Islam is a suicide cult.


UPDATE: More here.

That Omama! A real outside-the-beltway, outside-the-box kind of guy.

Upside: Walter Mondale's campaign manager is running things. Walter Mondale's campaign manager, for God's sake! The man who paired John Edwards with John Kerry.

Famous soon-to-be last words: "McCain can't have won, no one I know voted for him."

JEEEEEEEEEZUS H. CHRIST ON A CROSS, DEMORCATS, LEARN FROM YOUR PAST GODDAMN MISTAKES!!!!!

As long as Democrats keep nominating useless nonentities, and then pairing them with barely-humans who react only to things like air, light, water, food, and ambulance lights, well, they're going to keep losing to slightly less-useless, slightly more-alive Republicans.

Thing is, the bar keeps sinking in every election. As long as the Democrat nominate weaker-and-weaker candidates, the Republicans will win with slightly less weaker-and-weaker candidates, but our entire political system becomes more enervated in total.

PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE, DEMOCRATS, GIVE THE REPUBLICANS A BIT OF COMPETITION. YOU'RE KILLING US!!!!!

See what I mean?

Oh well. I guess we're just going to have to hit bottom and dig for a bit before we can start recovery.

Obama's supporters jump the shark.

The day after Obama loses the general election, hordes of left-wingers will be on TV saying "McCain can't have won; no one I know voted for him."


UPDATE: Kool-Aid drunk. (You know, this.)

Given the way the mainstream media have treated Hillary!, expect some sort of "equal time" law out of Washington, DC, sometime this year.

Believe me, McCain-Feingold was the thin end of a very wide wedge.

The day will come when terrorists constitute an existential threat to Israel.

On that day I expect to see Israel glass over large portions of Lebanon, the Gaza Strip, and the West Bank.

And maybe Iran as well.

I've never understood this mindless hatred. I didn't understand it in Ireland, and I don't understand it in the Middle East. Why the hell can't people just get on with growing wealthy, fat, dumb, and happy?

So, the President makes a speech in Tel Aviv, wherein he denounced people who would negotiate with terrorists.

Obama makes his first mistake: Assuming the comments are about him.

This leads to a couple of days of "I would not negotiate with terrorists. I would negotiate with those who sponsor terrorism." WTF, over? So, first Obama self-identifies as the target (the President never mentioned him by name - he could have been talking about the EU, for all Obama knew), and then he gets into this hair-splitting, angels dancing on a pin argument.

This leads to his second mistake: This whole "If George Bush and John McCain..." rhetoric doesn't serve him well. When he brings up those two names, all he does is remind the world of his comparative callow fecklessness.

The man walked right into a political trap, and then started digging. The mullahs would eat him alive. Not ready for prime time, I'm afraid.

Please, someone, put Obama on a tank.

Instant McCain victory.

Is It Time To Invade Burma?

Well, only if a Democrat gets credit for liberating an oppressed people.

Otherwise, well, it's a guagmire/waste of American life/Republican disaster.


We need to get beyond the partisan brand for freeing the oppressed people of the world. That will save millions of lives, worldwide.

I am proud to be Irish. Any nation that produces writers who can reduce a millenium of suffering to irony ought to actually be ruling to globe.

Thinking about that, I vaguely remember reading some blurb about how 70 million people worldwide claim Irish ancestry. That's about 1% of humanity. Which, given that Ireland has a population of about 5 million on an island of 32,000 square miles at 52 degrees north latitude, is massive impact.

Which, you know, is how it should be. For the Irish. God bless them.

Now, if only he'd change his first name to "Patrick".

That whole surge thing, just not working.

We are not going to discuss numbers or the details of the staff reduction, nor will we be releasing a list of names.

Finally, the New York Time finds something it doesn't want to talk about.

...most drivers still appear to be winking at posted speed limits because they say their time is worth more than the gas they'd save by slowing down.

Today I celebrate a French defeat, rather than a Mexican victory.

This got me angry at first. Now it just seems sad and cliched.

Were I not out already, I'd be leaving Europe today.

Europe is getting ready to start killing Jews, all over again.

I used to vacation in Europe twice a year or so, because it's where I'm from, et je connais la langue. No longer. It has become foreign to me, sorry to say.

US out of Chicago, now!

Let's face it, staying there is ENDLESS WAR!

History repeats itself, first as farce, second time as law.

Here's what The Guardian  has to say about America, this week.

A sort of "Der Stürmer" moment, IMHO.

Godwin be damned.

I don't know why this should be the case, but the email address for this blog is of great intrest to spammers from Brazil.

I know, I just emptied the e-sewage from the e-mailbox.
