Sunday Schtuff #Whatever

Every time you think that the lib-rul azzoles have reached the bottom, somebody like the esteemed senator-on-sale-from-Nevada starts digging again. The sheer, unmitigated stupidity obvious in Reid's remarks and bloody well apparent to anyone who's worn a US uniform reflect the contempt for the military underlying the lib-rul philosophy that jackass-in-magic-underpants espouses. (But supposedly he and G'anma Nan are running the most ethical Congress evah.) Maybe a spell of studying American history and the Constitution would help with his failed reality check. But I doubt it. He, Nan, and Senator Carpetbagger only attend the siren call to power, be it fiscal or political. In the words of the Rifleman, "Bah". The only idea I've heard out of Nevada lately that appears to be worth a damn is the law that the legislature can only meet biennially for a maximum of 120 days. THAT may be an idea whose time has come...

I hear at Drudge that poverty pimp Sharpton has threatened to burn shut down the Big Apple because the cops shot a drunken clown (who'd tried to assault them with a motor vehicle) and they were acquitted. I'm not sure what protestors carrying signs with numbers to represent each round fired accomplishes but that's Al's platform. I wonder if he can get a special appearance by Tawana Brawley...

I see the Wall Street Journal has taken a page from the Grey(bag) Lady and decided that what this country needs to solve its problems is a constitutional amendment mandating open borders. WTF is wrong with those people? Do unicorns and fuzzy-bunnies in sunlit meadows gambol under rainbows on their planet where it's always 9-10-01? I wonder what their position would be if illegal aliens were being hired to write simplisme op-ed pieces. I would imagine it would make somewhat of a difference in their attitudes if it was the WSJ rice bowl being threatened rather than the little people union members'. Just an aside - how long are the farmers in irrigation-intensive California going to need illegal aliens migrant workers when the "voters" in the coastal cities are going to be demanding all the water be diverted to their use? Gitcher popcorn, the fight for water rights is just starting...

I may be back later this afternoon. Enjoy the day.

Primary Follies

As John Lennon sang "Imagine"...

Mild Bill is orchestrating the Democrat Party primaries. Being worried about his legacy and knowing that if Shrillary is elected that he will forever be "the impeached husband of the first female president" he is doin' his best to screw up the process. (He knows that in 4 years either Bambam or another up-and-coming will shove her aside and run for Prez.) This could open a window of opportunity for AlGore to swoop in at ye olde convention and be nominated as HeadCheese with Yo'Mama takin' the #2 slot. Yo'Mama'd then be poised to run in 2016..

YMMV.

Go over to the Roger and thank him for alerting me to this:

I love the hypocrisy in our Senate (repeal the 17th Amendment!) and the Admiral is pretty predictable if not reliable...

The Indians still seem to be shell-shocked from the playoffs in 2007, so they continue to suck (even though I'm bloody glad I'm not a Motor City Kitties fan even though I've watched the Tribe play in Motown). {Insert something here about bulls and banjos} but the pitching hasn't exactly been an 88 mm. on mild steel armor, either. Yah, there are 162 games, but being 8-10 games under .500 after April is going to make your season memorable. And probably not in a good way... Browns had a fair to good draft with Quinn the Eskimo holding the #1 placard then the experienced Corey Williams and Shaun Rogers in 2nd and 3rd (with higher salaries) and no pick until the 4th round with #122. Suck it up.
Sorry, don't care about roundball - but as an old fart from Cleveland, I expect the Cavs to crash-and-burn (sorry, Greybeard) like the Browns and Indians have done - "Ripping our collective hearts out since 1964" (last pre-Super Bowl year and last championship for Cleveburg. Since then no closure (thank-you-Joe-Table... Sorry, once the meds kick in, I'll be fine fine fine..).

But the weather was out-bloody-standing for April-in-Cleveland. As I hope it will be for y'all this weekend.

Two Posts in a Row

Rudely swiped from here. Check it out - it be tres amusant... Too many pictures, I know. Happy BAGDay. (Mine is an AO 1911 GI model w/plastic grips, but don't tell.)

Pugs can crack me UP! Shamelessly stolen from Fat Mammy Cat. Thanks, darlin'!

CDS and BDS

For the last 5 years, I've been askin' folks what seems to have had the merry hell aggravated out of them by Dick Cheney's existence why. I get nothin'. I was talking to the lovely-and-talented this morning about the foofaraw over the reflections in his sunglasses and said, "After the kerfluffle a year or so ago about the photo of Cheney that made him appear overly-developed, it wouldn't surprise me if Cheney picked that photo out himself for release." The bride exploded about how she couldn't stand Dick Cheney. When pressed for a reason, all she had was "he's arrogant". When I mentioned that if arrogance was the criterion, Eliot Spitzer would be a pinata and Hillary would have been "Fostered" at about the time of Whitewater, I got the discussion-kill: "I'm not going to argue with you." Of course the only proper reply to that is "Then why did you make such an asshole statement?" and if that is said, "Katie, bar the door".

I chalk it up to envy - how many folks have the ability to run a multi-billion dollar corporation? But the question that remains is whom are these folks gonna hate when George W. and Dick retire next year? An entire industry available for re-tasking after January 20, 2009.... Wonder if it'll be more profitable than Air America was. Surely can't lose money as fast...

Good Line

Ya gotta love to-the-point declarations like "Go fuck yourselves and die in a fire"'. I'm not a librarian but I've been called a "mofo" and I lost it when I read that imprecation. RTWT, as they say.

Another Blog

I tend to read Cleveland and Ohio blogs. I'd like to welcome Dan O. from Schismatic Pandemonium from Lagrange, Ohio. Quite a mouthful o'title. But he's on the blogroll - go visit him.

We Are Not Worthy

Chris Muir has got to be the most pointed cartoonist on the 'net today. His humor makes the reader bring something to the table - and is richly rewarded when he does. Today's strip in conjunction with yesterday's merits a beverage alert.

He's sort of a Thomas Nast for the digitized 21st century.... And no, I'm not on his payroll but he's more than a homeboy: he's my homepage.

Ah So

As the ancient philosophers of Cathay once cursed "It's always something" "May you live in interesting times". I figger no matter which one of the socialists gets lucky, we're in for 2-4 years of Carteritis or something equally scary. Shrillary could destroy the judiciary - wonder if she could nominate Bill for the SCotUS once his disbarment is over? Bambam's airy-fairy approach to international realities and the fact that he knows much better than we do how to spend our money will destroy the US as an effective agent of change for at least 50 years. Mav wants to open the borders and the Treasury to the illegals as well as the terrorists. He gets a few points for supporting the war effort and the 2A, but his other social and fiscal policies evinced in the last 5 years are pandering to the masses and the media. Anybody that thinks the next administration won't be tested as W's was early in his first term, please look at it from the Islamofascist point of view. A couple of million bucks and a few disposable muji-types - maybe even home-grown in one of our prisons! - can wreak havoc asymmetrically on a wide-open system like ours. Hell, I can think of half-dozen ways to put the hurt on an industrialized nation with less than 10 folks and a million bucks - and at least 2 of them are almost dam-fool-proof.

Interesting times.
