Sheesh

Which one of these men is not a 9-11 hijacker?


Rep.Rep. Keith Ellison (D MN)

And so it begins ...
`
Keith Ellison, D-Minn., the first Muslim elected to the United States Congress, has announced that he will not take his oath of office on the Bible, but on the bible of Islam, the Koran.

Dennis Prager has his thoughts, and I concur, only more.  To my way of thinking, electing this guy is tantamount to electing an American Nazi to congress in 1942.  Stupid, stupid, stupid.  Now that it's done, the sonofabitch does not get to dictate his term of service, beginning with how he's sworn in. 

Let's make book on something here.  How long will it be before we read the first report of women, in an American city (probably in Michigan), who's afraid to shop in her neighborhood because of harassment by veiled Muslim women  I'm saying that will happen within a few years. These people are more arrogantly self-entitled than the most radical Mexican illegal.  If you haven't check Coulter's follow-up report on the ''flying imams."

Earl Warren did exactly one good thing in his entire life, and we all know what that was, don't we?  There's the solution until every muslim capitol in the world is in ruins. It won't happen, but the day will quickly arrive when you wish it had.

Today's Rabid Dog

That's just to establish which planet Dan Perkins (a.k.a. "Tom Tomorrow") lives on.  Here's today's hilarity, in full. [Confirming the obvious …]

Anyone who’s spent any time reading right wing blogs already understood this to be true:

Lohse, a social work master’s student at Southern Connecticut State University, says he has proven what many progressives have probably suspected for years: a direct link between mental illness and support for President Bush.

Lohse says his study is no joke. The thesis draws on a survey of 69 psychiatric outpatients in three Connecticut locations during the 2004 presidential election. Lohse’s study, backed by SCSU Psychology professor Jaak Rakfeldt and statistician Misty Ginacola, found a correlation between the severity of a person’s psychosis and their preferences for president: The more psychotic the voter, the more likely they were to vote for Bush.

But before you go thinking all your conservative friends are psychotic, listen to Lohse’s explanation.

“Our study shows that psychotic patients prefer an authoritative leader,” Lohse says. “If your world is very mixed up, there’s something very comforting about someone telling you, ‘This is how it’s going to be.’”

The study was an advocacy project of sorts, designed to register mentally ill voters and encourage them to go to the polls, Lohse explains. The Bush trend was revealed later on.

The study used Modified General Assessment Functioning, or MGAF, a 100-point scale that measures the functioning of disabled patients. A second scale, developed by Rakfeldt, was also used. Knowledge of current issues, government and politics were assessed on a 12-item scale devised by the study authors.

“Bush supporters had significantly less knowledge about current issues, government and politics than those who supported Kerry,” the study says.

Lohse says the trend isn’t unique to Bush: A 1977 study by Frumkin & Ibrahim found psychiatric patients preferred Nixon over McGovern in the 1972 election.


That, dear friends, is the basis for ...

Bad Judges

Judge Crater Nominees
America's britches were soiled yet again by the Clinton 1994 appointed judges.  First, Judge James Robertson.  A winner of the JUDGE HENRY WOODS AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING CORRUPTION ON THE BENCH,  and not having any current Clinton prosecutions to short circuit, this judicial carpet stain has branched out.

Federal Judge Rules American Paper Money is Unfair to Blind People

Then we have Her Honer, Judge Audrey Collins, who has made it her mission to decide whether measures our elected government have made to heighten out security live up to her high standards.    Hopefully we will one day honor both with the Judge Crater Award.

Today's RBMFCS

This is Tuesday.  The following are from Saturday.  It's taken me this long to handle them without going over the edge (and , as you know, that's extreme extreme).  Let's start with ElleN THE  MOFKNG RATNER!   ARRGGGGHHHHHH.
The discussion twixt her and Jim Pinkerton, on their Fox & Friends segment  (it ought be called the Rat and Bunny Show), was about Vladimir Putin coming out of the closet as the KGB murderer he still is.  Here's the Rat.

"I don't know what we should do except that we are not in a great position because we don't have the moral standing given what we're doing in Iraq."

Ratner doesn't have an original idea in her head, so she is here simply espousing views expressed at Upper East-Side dinner parties. For the cherry on this dessert, try this.

"The Plan' may not work"

I found in, of all places, yesterday's  North Lake Tahoe Bonanza, a nice little article ['The Plan' may not work] .  The author, Jim Clark, has some insight into Party Pelosi, as in whence they came, and where they're headed.  I think you'll like it. He ends with these questions.

How many of the new conservative Democrat legislators will tow the Pelosi line knowing that in two years they will have to run for reelection in conservative districts?

How middle-of-the-road a course can she chart without alienating the far left wing of her party? Don't know yet.

As one wag observed: "The only thing for sure is that in the future all the Capitol toilet seats will be in the down position . . . and that includes the men's rooms."

First of all, I will argue that there are no "conservatives" among them. I mean, the word does mean something.  Sure, some tailored their campaigns to appeal to conservative voters, but anybody willing to run as a democrat is, at best, a charlatan.  Take Tom DeLay's replacement, Democrat Nick Lampson (who faced no opposition, save for a poorly promoted write-in candidate). 

Nick Lampson

Lampson is not Muslim, but in true democrat party fashion is willing to pander.

In 2002, less than 1 percent of Houston's Muslim community voted in the national election. That number grew to 8 percent in 2004 and 10 percent in 2006.

That growing political clout did not go unnoticed in Lampson's camp this year.


Oh goody.  I look forward to Islamo versions of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton getting their tentacles into the democratic party.  The question though, Nick, is will a district who elected Tom DeLay, and would have re-elected him, cotton to the politics of Islamo ass-licking?  Because, if not, you are one of those 2 year wonders Jim Clark alluded to.  The nexus of Muslimo politics in America, CAIR, is comprised of hard line Muslims, many of them terrorists themselves, or with terrorist connections. How nice.

Found in the attic

I was getting dressed to go to son #3's home for Thanksgiving dinner when I found this T-shirt. This is how we were told that we were going to be grandparents on Christmas day 8 years ago (all of us getting different shirts, of course - i.e. "World's best Aunt," etc.). I didn't catch on until my wife began to sob. Anyway, I'd never worn it, but chose it in lieu of the Begley Check Shirt from Thomas Pink I was looking for. I'm going to wear it everywhere.

Der Google Snooper

Milwaukie, Oregon - only in America can you beat a B-17 into a gas station.

Shortly after WWII a guy named Art Lacey (he had a British wife) went to Kansas to buy a surplus B-17. His idea was to fly it back to Oregon, jack it up in the air and make a gas station out of it. He paid $15,000 for it. He asked which one was his and they said take whichever you want because there were miles of them. He didn't know how to fly a 4 engine airplane so he read the manual while he taxied around by himself. They said he couldn't take off alone so he put a mannequin in the co-pilot's seat and off he went.

He flew around a bit to get the feel of it and when he went to land he realized he needed a co-pilot to lower the landing gear. He crashed and totaled his plane and another on the ground. They wrote them both off as "wind damaged" and told him to pick out another. He talked a friend into being his co-pilot and off they went.

They flew to Palm Springs where Lacey wrote a hot check for gas then they headed for Oregon. They hit a snow storm and couldn't find their way so they went down below 1,000 feet and followed the railroad tracks. His partner sat in the nose section and would yell, "TUNNEL" when he saw one and Lacey would climb over the mountain.

They landed safely, he made good the hot check he wrote, and they started getting permits to move a B-17 on the state highway. The highway department repeatedly denied his permit and fought him tooth and nail for a long time so late one Saturday night he just moved it himself. He got a $10 ticket from the police for having too wide a load.


But wait, al-Jazeera breath.  There are more interesting things you can find  - "Google Earth: the black helicopters have landed"

PS- Does anyone know the address of Hillary's Georgetown townhouse, or Slick's Chappaqua home?  I want to put them under 24/7 surveillance.

Smoking in America

Here's what I know.  When everyone smoked we were a better people.  We won wars.  We executed traitors.  Nobody had health insurance, because medical care was affordable, and negotiable. Granny still lived to 90, gramps to 92.  Not a single democrat in congress today could have been nominated, let alone be elected.  The television code would not allow a married man and woman to be shown in the same bed. Nobody burned the American flag, because nobody would publicly disavow their counttry - to do so put your life in danger. The letters  "ACLU" strung together were so ugly they carried the same onus as ''communist," or "Nazi."  Politicians were put-down in debates by being accused of paying dues to them.  Children said the Pledge of Allegiance, and listened to a bible passage every school morning; nobody was traumatized by it. Having a child out of wedlock ended any public career. Everybody celebrated Christmas, if only as a season of joy and good will, and giving.

All of that changed once the smoking Nazis came to power.  What am I to think? America will not be great again until the Marlboro song is played on every television show. Who's got a match?

Christmas Music

I will shortly be compiling a music video comprised of traditional  Christmas songs. That is to say, the mention of Christ, Jesus, and Bethlehem will be allowed, not as an attempt to shove religion down anyone's throat, but, rather, in celebration of a long-standing national tradition that I refuse to cede to swinish ACLU types who ought to be hunted down, and have their Beamers keyed, and tires slashed. 

Dammit, see how they have poisoned our national  cohesiveness and civility? 

Anyway, I will be slide showing Christmas scenes on the video.  If you'd like to have your favorite family memories included, just send me the picture(s).  If you'd like to include a Christmas greeting, include that with your picture. Or they can be used without identification, or message.   Here's the address

A fine screed

Damian Housman (Skoonj) is a long time denizen of C&S.  He forwarded this end of a e-mail correspondence with Barry Farber, and I'm reprinting it because I can't disagree with even a comma (almost).


Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2006 7:42 PM
Subject: Re: Last Election

Thanks, Damian, for taking the time to put that entire package on paper.  I hope you didn't do it just for me.  What you say deserves a much wider American audience.

Best greetings,

Barry

Barry,
 
I said I would get into the war, and I will.  Two wars.
 
Recently there has been criticism of the administration and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.  The problem is that those who criticize openly question going to war, not the methodology employed.  I don't question going to war, though I prefer using other means of gaining our goals where possible.  But we are a sovereign nation, and we will go to war when we find it in our interest. 
 
Recently there has been some criticism from those who question methodology.  This is important, since prior to this you either supported the war and the way it's fought, or you opposed the war, and if you are a Democrat, try to sabotage it.  I have read some columns and articles by Ralph Peters, who is saying things I am saying.  For instance, he said this after the raid on an Iraqi research institute, in which many were kidnapped:
 
"YESTERDAY, 80 terrorists in police uniforms raided an Iraqi research institute in Baghdad, rounded up 100-plus male students, loaded them into vehicles in broad daylight and drove away.

"They couldn’t have pulled it off without the complicity of key elements within the Iraqi security services and the government: “our guys.”

"The students probably will be executed and dumped somewhere. Partly for the crime of wanting to study and build a future, but primarily just to step up the level of terror yet again.

"What really matters is what our forces are ordered - and permitted - to do. With political correctness permeating our government and even the upper echelons of the military, we never tried the one technique that has a solid track record of defeating insurgents if applied consistently: the rigorous imposition of public order.

"That means killing the bad guys. Not winning their hearts and minds, placating them or bringing them into the government. Killing them.

"If you’re not willing to lay down a rule that any Iraqi or foreign terrorist masquerading as a security official or military member will be shot, you can’t win. And that’s just one example of the type of sternness this sort of fight requires.

"With the situation in Iraq deteriorating daily, sending more troops would simply offer our enemies more targets - unless we decided to use our soldiers and Marines for the primary purpose for which they exist: To fight.

"Any code of ethics that squanders the lives of tens of thousands and the future of millions so we can “claim the moral high ground” is hypocrisy worthy of the Europeans who made excuses for the Holocaust.

"If we want to give Iraq’s silent - and terrified - majority a last chance, we would have to accept the world’s condemnation for killing the killers. If we are unwilling to do that, Iraq’s finished."
This is the problem in a nutshell.  These things continue to happen because we insist on fighting a politically correct war.  We don't KILL the bad guys!  We detain them!  I don't know about you, but that wouldn't scare me, and I don't think it would scare an Iraqi terrorist.  We have to KILL them.  We should have gone into the war that way.  Uniformed enemy, fine, you are prisoners of war.  Not wearing a uniform and we catch you attacking us?  Killed, on the spot.  My preference is to hang the body from a lamp post as a warning to the others.  We DID do that in wars we won, by the way, all the way back to the Revolution.  If we didn't detain them, could there be an Abu Graib?  Could there be a Guantanamo?
 
What is going on is really the Vietnamization of the war.  Had we gone in brutally and harshly, and killed the terrorists from the start, the terrorists would never have had a chance to organize into a force like they have today.  It would either be over or nearly so.  Why do I say Vietnamization?  Because, as in Vietnam, we cannot win the way we fight.  We can only regulate the rate at which we lose.  I sure wish Peters were to be Secretary of Defense instead of Gates.  We would have a chance of winning that we don't have today.
 
Afghanistan is an illustration not only of PC war, but of the way I would want one fought.  After getting the Taliban and al Qaeda fighters (and leaders) to blunder into a massive martialling of their forces at Tora Bora, we saw we didn't have enough US troops to finish them off.  Mistake.  The next mistake was allowing our Afghan allies to negotiate a cease fire for negotiations, at which point the enemy escaped through the hills.  Stupid on several levels.  Let's just wonder why Bush didn't use a tactical nuclear weapon there to finish the enemy.  And establish that we will, indeed, use any weapon we feel is necessary.  Bin Laden and his pals would not have escaped.  We wouldn't be chasing him through the hills and valleys of the back of beyond.  It would have been ended.
 
As I've said before, nuclear weapons must be seen as a viable option, and not just a theoretical one.  I do not believe in spilling the blood of American troops as a substitute for the use of the best, most appropriate weapon we have available.  To do otherwise is military malpractice.  Bush is no better than Lyndon Johnson or Jimmy Carter.
 
I just want it clear that to back "the war" doesn't necessarily mean backing the way the military malpractitioner is conducting it.  By making PC war, he insures we can never win.  I will never back a Republican for president who does not understand the difference between victory in war and waging PC war.  And I have seen NO potential candidates coming along I would trust.

Looking Forward

“The United States does not need a multi-billion-dollar national missile defense against the possibility of a nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missile.

“What we need is a strong nonproliferation policy with other nations to combat the most serious threat to our national security and to the safety of the world – weapons of mass destruction falling into the hands of terrorists who would smuggle them into our cities.  - Nancy Pelosi, [Pelosi Receives 2003 Alan Cranston Peace Award from Global Security Institute]


It appears that before the decade's end, every third world despot, and Tijuana street gang, will own a nuclear tipped ICBM.  Our only protection will be Ronald Reagan's missile defense system that, while still not perfect, is advanced enough to offer hope.  Last month, just prior to the election,  Rep. Ellen Tauscher (D - CA) appeared on C-Span's Washington Journal.  She there bolstered my position that every elected democrat is an unconscionable liar, by claiming  liberal democrats have always supported missile defense. It'll be fun watching these die hards attempt to gut a program that even your normally inattentive voter has a vested interest in, i.e., saving his/her own ass. They'll try, though, count on it.

Just an Anti-Semitic Laugh?


With anti-Semitism reemerging in Europe and rampant in the Islamic world; with Iran acquiring the ultimate weapon of genocide and proclaiming its intention to wipe out the world's largest Jewish community (Israel); with America and, in particular, its Christian evangelicals the only remaining Gentile constituency anywhere willing to defend that besieged Jewish outpost -- is the American heartland really the locus of anti-Semitism? Is this the one place to go to find it? - Charles Krauthammer - Just an Anti-Semitic Laugh? Hardly. - washingtonpost.com

Krauthammer is here addressing Sacha Baron Cohen's (Borat), claim that he goes around America making anti-Semitic remarks in order to elicit a nodding anti-Semitic response. And with enough liquor and cajoling, he succeeds in showing just how anti-Semitic we yokels are. 

As I watched Hollywood's high profile Jewish entertainers recently embrace the likes of Cindy Sheehan, even while she was feted by the world's  leading Hitler idolizers, like Chavez and Ahmadinejad, I finally figured it out.  They are Jews the same way the National Organization for Women are women.  That is, only insofar as they can use their status to advance leftist causes.  It's a tool.  Which reminds me, what the hell happened to Curb Your Enthusiasm?

Crossing the Rubicon

Options for the History Channel

BAGHDAD - the current radical chief of the Iraqi Shiite Moqtada Sadr threatened Friday to withdraw government and Parliament if the Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki maintained his meeting with American president George W. Bush envisaged at the end of November in Jordan. [AFP via translation]


This may be some wishin' and hopin', but the reason this chubby sack of  Islamo offal is afraid of that meeting is he knows its   purpose is to tell Bush where to aim the cruise missiles that will blow him off the face of planet Earth like we should have doe two years ago.  *catching some breath*

In fact, here's where I'm at, now that our military have been betrayed by American liberals.  I'm looking for the script that The History Channel can use for a year 2306  holovision mini-series, about  how we won the war on terror, and transformed the Middle East into a respectable  Christan community.  This is a work in progress, but here's some choices I've come up with so far.
  1. Admit that there is too much Muslim influence in Iraq's government, and dissolve it.  Then, knowing the identities, and hopefully the whereabouts, of the worst of them, we kill them.  Everyone else is baptized in the Tigris River, and given a job with Exxon.
  2. Withdraw from Iraq, Saigon style, then nuclear bomb the entire mofkng region, including Russia, China, Iran, both Koreas, and Seattle.  I mean, totalmofkng wipeout. *breathing heavily*
  3. Withdraw with tails betwixt legs, and return home where some general crosses the Rubicon, pursues fleeing senators across the earth,  and vanquishes them to a man (and woman).  That ought to be good for several hundred years of  Pax Americana.  *peed pants*
Damn, now I feel good again.

"Looks like Pelosi"

Turkey Hi-jinx
In a hilarious departure from tradition, President Bush today told children expecting Tom Turkey to receive a presidential pardon, that he had changed his mind.  "By golly, this turkey looks just like Nancy Pelosi, doesn't it?  I don't think I'll pardon this old bird." With that he yanked its head off.  "This is how we do it in Texas. Look at that blood spurt out!"  The children and their teachers were delighted with the president's impromptu hi-jinx.  They urged him to let the bird loose so it could flop around, but he demurred, saying "Laura will kill me if I ruin this new suit."  

Liberal Gun Monkeys

If the Washington Post was a zoo, this [More Limits Sought On Civilians' Guns]  is where we watch monkeys masturbate. 

State law bans weapons in courthouses. But the absence of any prohibition on weapons inside police stations or jails places officers at risk, county officials say. At the request of Fairfax County Police Chief David M. Rohrer, the Board of Supervisors has included a ban in a draft of its legislative program for the 2007 Virginia General Assembly.Michael W. Kennedy, a mentally ill 18-year-old, drove to the rear parking lot of the station and fired more than 70 shots with an assault rifle and other weapons. Detective Vicky O. Armel, 40, died that day, along with Kennedy. Officer Michael E. Garbarino, 53, died of his wounds nine days later.

Okay, this is a tragedy for all concerned.  That said, this response is as lame as Bill Clinton's anti-gun law binge in response to Tim McVeigh's fertilizer bomb.  It's an excuse.

Knutts the Squirrel
While I'm waiting to get into the bathroom this morning, I was entertained by the story of Knutts the squirrel on the Today Show.   A  touching tale of how hostette Meredith Viera rescued a baby squirrel from certain death.  Knutts had somehow gained entry into Meredith's home where it was viciously attacked by the Viera cat. An animal shaman works her magic, and in no time little Knutt is released, praise the lord, into the wilds of New York. The World Wild Life Fund's squirrel extinction meter is stopped, precariously, on the 30 trillion and 3 mark. Here I am trying to to rid myself of these birdseed robbing tree rats, and wtf???

Meanwhile, these same liberal media twits are hailing Sen. Osama Obama [meat fisted segue warning] as the second coming of Hillary.  That is to say, someone with absolutely no history of accomplishment, but with whom liberals assuage their guilt ridden consciouses by finding minorities to plump and fluster over.   Or maybe they're just trying to drive the rest of us mad.  Anyway, back to Osama-Bama.  Let's start here.
Senator Osama-Obama and murdered child
I want to interject some background here.  Mother Superior is a NICU (Neo Natal Intensive Care) nurse.  She works with other NICU nurses.  Their mission is to save the lives of newborn who just a few years ago would have never drawn breath.  Still, she was astounded to discover that virtually none of her peers knew what partial birth abortions entailed. Hard to believe that these lovely people, most of whom vote a straight democratic ticket (because democrats are the people who care, don't you know) have no knowledge of how babies - identical to those they fuss over all night - have their brains sucked out even whilst baby feet are kicking outside the birth canal. See Obama's babies? ; This is what, [warning- graphic pop-up
          Courtesy of the Democratic Party
] according to him, he and Michelle Obama had the right to do, up to the point where the eyes see daylight. .

The argument that this procedure is performed to save the mother's life is a flat out falsehood used by these butchers to to confuse an ignorant public. Even while Bill Clinton was vetoing legislation that would have banned the procedure, Ron Fitzsimmons, executive director of the Alexandria-based National Coalition of Abortion Providers, said he "lied through his teeth" during a 1995 appearance on ABC's "Nightline" about the controversial procedure.  The baby's are killed for the mother''s convenience, not health.

But don't let me ruin your reverie over saving a tree rat.

There are a spate of post election articles from the right examining our position in Iraq.  On Friday Krauthammer [Why Iraq Is Crumbling] took his shot.

I have my own theories. In retrospect, I think we made several serious mistakes -- not shooting looters, not installing an Iraqi exile government right away, and not taking out Moqtada al-Sadr and his Mahdi Army in its infancy in 2004 -- that greatly compromised the occupation. Nonetheless, the root problem lies with Iraqis and their political culture.
<snip>
Last month American soldiers captured a Mahdi Army death squad leader in Baghdad -- only to be forced to turn him loose on order of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Two weeks ago, we were ordered, again by Maliki, to take down the barricades we had established around Sadr City in search of another notorious death squad leader and a missing American soldier.

Kraut sees a "glimmer of hope" if we can create a new coalition based on cross-sectarian alliances: the more moderate Shiite elements (secular and religious but excluding the poisonous Sadr), the Kurds and those Sunnis who recognize their minority status but are willing to accept an important, generously offered place at the table.

George H. Wittman [Plain Speaking on Iraq and Iran] sees Iran holding the trump card in our effort to extricate from Iraq.

Blah-blah-blah.  We never had a chance.

The Bush strategy seems to have been to isolate Iran, the nexus of terrorism,  by flanking them with democratic governments in Afghanistan and Iraq.  Whether it was a good plan is moot.  It was the policy of our elected (and reelected) government, but doomed because of the real axis of evil we face.  When Democrats, for political advantage, and bolstered by a phalanx of leftist media  joined forces with anti-American international groups like ANSWER, the war was lost.  Period.

Dance around it all you want.  Write reams of white papers, and volumes of analysis, and one fact remains.  Competing visions for America by the left and right are inimical.  The United States cannot ever again prevail against any enemy as long as the left have any voice in government, and that's been true for 30 years.

I know what I'd do.  Call it tough love.

SUPER KATIE

Who can forget Katie's on-air high colonic enema that went awry?  Even though the Today Show set was completely cleaned, ratings dropped until it was redesigned.
Katie Couric's ratings began to tank on her first night as anchorette of CBS Nightly News, and haven't stopped.  CBS execs are promising affiliates  a "Super Katie" marketing gambit designed to take her to the top.  Give Couric her due, she will try anything.  Her Today Show gimmicks included colonoscopy, enemas, body hair removal, simulated oral sex with Bryant Gumbel, and the infamous "chimp threesome."  My inside sources tell me that Perky Katie will be the first human to receive a Shetland Pony in-vitro
          "PALOMINO"
during Super Bowl halftime.   You heard it here first.

Rejoice, voters! Because of you, all good things will come to pass

Hallelujah! Now that Democrats have taken control of Congress, we can expect:


• Gas prices to drop to $1.25, because Republicans will no longer be able to feather the nest of Big Oil with obscene profits.

• Cars to run on hydrogen, corn syrup and refried beans, because Republicans will no longer be able to control the laws of physics.

• The wage gap to become non-existent, because differences in intelligence, drive, determination, personal responsibility and common sense will be outlawed.

• Unemployment to drop to zero when the minimum wage increases to $22.35 per hour, because the demand for labor increases when the cost of labor increases, and not the reverse, as ignorant, mean-spirited Republicans had stupidly claimed.

• Test scores of below-average students to skyrocket to above-average levels, because Democrats will outlaw the Republican-invented Bell curve.

• The Dow to hit 18,000 in 2007, because it's an economic fact that the best way of growing an economy is to penalize risk-takers, innovators and the industrious.

• The price of medicine and health care to plummet, because it's another economic fact that when you give people free stuff, demand goes down.

• Foreign investors to swamp the country in capital, because they really don't care about the return on their investments, as the Republicans had led us to believe.

• Government to control even more of the economy, because government is clearly better at allocating scarce resources, as the Soviet Union, Cuba, North Korea and France have proven.

• Single-parent households to grow exponentially, because Republicans won't be able to spread the lie that such households are the primary cause of poverty, crime and school dropouts.

• Wal-Mart to go out of business, because Republicans won't be able to perpetuate another myth that people prefer low prices to high prices.

• Muslim extremists to stop killing Americans and enslaving women, because their extremism was caused by Republicans, who never understood the glories of multiculturalism and the fact that all cultures are equally good, except the American culture.

In conclusion, since things are going to be so much better with the Democrats controlling Congress, let's hope that they also gain control of the White House.

Nancy Pelosi Carter

That didn't take long.  And, it's not just conservatives [Republicans plot to bring down Pelosi ... and Clinton with her] who recognize the coming shipwreck that will be Nancy Pelosi's House stewardship. Opportunities abound. For instance, just as the message of The Holocaust is a warning of what humans are capable of, occasionally revisiting Jimmy Carter's presidency is a requirement for good national health.

It was the first hint of things to come, and it did not bode well.

President-elect Jimmy Carter, over the objections of everyone from the AFL-CIO to conservative Democratic Senators (think Robert Byrd), had just nominated former JFK speechwriter and noted liberal Theodore Sorensen to be Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Democrats, flush with their first presidential victory in twelve years were suddenly divided, appalled and decidedly angry -- at each other.

It was December, 1976.

Jeffery Lord [Nancy Pelosi Carter]  is of course fleshing out an emerging, and oh-so obvious, analogy betwixt that earlier leftist nincompoop, and Her Pelosiness.  Carter's iridescent trail of incompetence shimmers yet.

The Sorensen episode turned out to be an introduction to a presidency that became the historical embodiment of weakness in the presidency. Almost without a pause, Carter kept whirling on as one of the most self-destructive leaders in the history of any modern political party on the planet  ... By November of 1980, shocked Democrats were staring at the precursor of Red America -- a 44 state Reagan win over Carter, the Senate turnover to the GOP after over two decades.

I know what you're saying ... ''but. Rodge, why warn her about what mistakes she's making?''  Don't worry.  Anyone who could say things like ....
  • "I pride myself in being called a liberal" and "I don't consider myself a moderate."
  • "Anybody who's ever dealt with me knows not to mess with me."
... is too full of herself           Oh yes, spank me harder ... HARDER! to see what's coming.

SKEPTICISM GROWING

Prominent international figures are beginning to question the science as well. Recently, for instance, Czech President Vaclav Klaus reportedly said that fears of manmade global warming were "a fatal mistake of the present time." We have also recently seen the conversion of Britain's famed environmental campaigner, David Bellamy, to a climate skeptic. Bellamy now calls fears of manmade catastrophic global warming, "poppycock."

In addition, renowned French geophysicist Claude Allegre recently reversed himself on global warming. (http://epw.senate.gov/pressitem.cfm?party=rep&id=264777 ) Allegre is a former French Socialist Party leader and a member of both the French and U.S. Academy of Sciences. More than a decade ago he signed a letter warning of the dangers of global warming – but in September published an article criticizing claims of man-made global warming, saying the cause of warming was unknown. He cited the alarmists' incorrect use of Mount Kilimanjaro's receding ice caps as proof of manmade global warming. Allegre pointed out that local factors were the cause of the disappearing ice, not global warming.

Allegre also accused proponents of manmade catastrophic global warming of being motivated by money, noting that "the ecology of helpless protesting has become a very lucrative business for some people!"

Arianna's Kool Ade

''Arianna gets busy squeezin' lemons over at the Huffington Post after the defeat of Jack Murtha. By the end of the post, however, it becomes clear that Arianna's not just making lemonade, she's mixing up a serious batch of Kool-aid:

And don't shed any tears for Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi. Even though her guy lost, this was still a big win for her. A victory for taking a stand -- and for her leadership. [emphasis added]

And don't shed any tears for Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi. Even though her guy lost, this was still a big win for her. A victory for taking a stand -- and for her leadership. [emphasis added]

You must be kidding, dahhling. Nancy Pelosi got her head handed to her by the Democratic caucus this morning. Trying to spin today's vote as a victory for Pelosi is a job even Baghdad Bob would turn down out of embarrassment. Not Arianna. She continues:

STRANGER THAN FICTION

Me and the Sup spent yesterday doing girl stuff (mall surfing, movies and lunch), in celebration of 76 years married to one another.  We don't go to many movies, mostly because I feel like I'm giving succor to the enemy; the Sup is not quite so over the edge.  She loved "Stranger Than Fiction" (think Delirious meets Groundhog Day without the humor - Ebert calls it a "moral tale").  Me?  Not so much.  There were several moments in the movie that broke my reverie.

Maggie GyllenhaalFirst, this Will Farrell (Bill Murray, where were you?) vehicle is not a comedy, so there may be disappointment for some on that score. He plays Harold Crick,  a senior  IRS auditor (stomach roll), painfully addicted to routine.  Crick audits Ana Pascal (Maggie Gyllenhaal), who runs a very upscale looking bakery shop, and whose only clientèle seem to be bums she feeds for free (stomach).  Somehow she made enough profit to intentionally deduct 28.62% - or some such - from her taxes, because (I bet you can't guess) she won't support America's evil military complex. 

Just once I'd like to see a Hollywood character say "I feel honored to pay for the protection from outside enemies, but I'm damned sick of boondoggles like overfunded education, and under subscribed entitlement programs for every constituency."  Just once. 

Still, Gyllenhaal is a compellingly pretty woman.  I Googled her visage to see if her half body tattoo was real.  It isn't.  Kay Eiffel (Emma Thompson) is an author writing a novel about Crick (whom she believes to be her invention), but Crick can hear her thoughts as she writes about him.  She experiences writer's block when it comes to killing her hero, and the real Crick is panic stricken, since everything else she wrote about him happened. Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Queen Latifah, Tom Hulce, and Linda Hunt also have roles. 

I give it 5 BOOGERS®.  The gratuitous lefty messages annoyed me.  In one scene Crick is watching television.  The decision was made to use this opportunity to sermonize on the evils of using monkeys for lab experiments and cosmetic testing.  It  distracted me;  the Sup didn't notice.  Finally, the entire premise hinges on how Harold is finally killed.  Kay Eiffel's solution, we are led to believe, is so stunningly wonderful that even Harold agrees to die so that the world can enjoy the magnificence of this milestone novel.  Problem is, that ending is  utterly pedestrian. 

Like I said, Mother Superior just loved it, and that's all that really counted.  We had fun afterwards, with lunch - and spending a good deal of time in the bookstore's easy chair (me), sipping Cappuccino while reading "Movable Type for Dummies."  I didn't understand it.

''Your Honor, my client loves deer. Is that a crime?''
Prosecution of a Douglas County case involving alleged sexual contact with a dead deer may hinge on the legal definition of the word “animal.”

Bryan James Hathaway, 20, of Superior faces a misdemeanor charge of sexual gratification with an animal. He is accused of having sex with a dead deer he saw beside Stinson Avenue on Oct. 11.

A motion filed last week by his attorney, public defender Fredric Anderson, argued that because the deer was dead, it was not considered an animal and the charge should be dismissed.

“The statute does not prohibit one from having sex with a carcass,” Anderson wrote.

Judge Michael Lucci heard the motion Tuesday.

“I’m a little surprised this issue hasn’t been tackled before in another case,” Lucci said.
"Lawyer argues sex with dead deer not crime"

San Francisco Treat

In their great wisdom, the nation's electorate have delivered us into government by San Francisco.  It is true that they had not a clue what they were doing, but it still counts.  Here's what we can expect, but on a larger scale. As a follow up to ridding the city of Boy Scouts, school prayer, and the Pledge of Allegiance, the school board yesterday eliminated the JROTC program.

After 90 years in San Francisco high schools, the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps must go, the San Francisco school board decided Tuesday night.

The board voted 4-2 to eliminate the popular program, phasing it out over two years.

Dozens of JROTC cadets at the board meeting burst into tears or covered their faces after the votes were cast.
"SAN FRANCISCO· School board votes to dump JROTC program"

Abramoff Donks

"six to eight seriously corrupt Democratic senators."
What failings President Bush has, they do not include bribe taking.  Still, incoming Democrat House committee chairmen have vowed to have serious hearings on Jack Abramoff in their quest to avenge Clinton's impeachment with one of their own.  We know for an absolute fact that one of those trails lead to Harry Reid, and now this delicious statement from an ABC NEWS' The Blotter.

Sources close to the investigation say Abramoff has provided information on his dealings with and campaign contributions and gifts to "dozens of members of Congress and staff," including what Abramoff has reportedly described as "six to eight seriously corrupt Democratic senators." 

Sounds like Republicans are poised to retake the senate by 2008.  Here's my best guess on who those democrat senators are, based on their past willingness to take tainted cash.
  1. Harry Reid, of course
  2. Hillary Clinton, numerous charges of illegal cash, including Abramoff's
  3. Ted Kennedy, Chinagate recipient, long history off illegal behavior
  4. Chris Dodd, Chinagate, Teamster money laundering, has Indians
  5. Maria Cantwell, her Real Audio fortune is mostly disappeared, she has lots on Indian constituents, took Jack cash
  6. Patty Murray, took $41,000 from Jack ... has Indians
  7. Byron Dorgan, took Jack's money, has Indians
  8. John Kerry, filled with a sense of entitlement
Don't look for the House hearings  to start anytime soon.

Future House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has ordered members of the House Democrat Caucus to adhere to a new dress code. ''It was my husband's idea, don't you just love the cute skirts?," she gushed at an afternoon press conference.  Also shown is new Majority Leader, Rep. John Murtha.

I received this e-mail regarding my suggestion to use nukes in the possession of national guard units as ''policy levers.''.

Roger,
Regarding your assumption as follows:
Working, then, on the assumption that every state's air national guard have access to nukes, I have a suggestion ... 
Some regular Army, Air Force, and Navy units have/may-be-issued nukes as they have the special training to handle, transport, target, and deploy them.  National Guard and Reserve units do not.

Keep up the good work. -JS

Bah. What the hell good does it do to have a national guard if they can't even nuke San Francisco?  This is bullshit.  Barnpeople, it really is up to us.  If I had $875,000 I could buy a nuke form this guy who was a Soviet army corporal in charge of 50 of them.  I think can negotiate that down.

With approximately 40 members in the 110th Congress, they once again hold the balance of power, and it looks like their first demand, that Nancy Pelosi replace ranking member Jane Harmon, whom she hates, as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, with Alcee Hastings will be met.  Wonderful.  Perhaps the most sensitive committee in Congress will be in the hands of an impeached federal judge, who escaped prison for the same reason O.J.

Cyanlie

Coverup

Carol Howe
Today the History Channel took a pretty exhaustive look at some of  the ''conspiracy'' charges re the Oklahoma City bombing.  Specifically, the Elohim City connection, and Carol Howe.  While they dramatized Howe's attempts to warn of the coming attack, they left out some particulars.    

Howe was a doll baby debutante who got involved with an Aryan hate group headquartered in Elohim City, OK.  A group that Timothy McVeigh had ties to.  Somewhere along the line she became concerned over very radical plans being formulated, like assassinations, and bombing government buildings.  Carol became an informant for the ATF, under the control of Special Agent Angela Finley.  Based on what her wired conversations revealed, and showing Finley specific targets (including the Murrah Federal Building), the ATF planned a raid on Elohim City.

 The FBI found out, and stopped it.  They were running their own sting on Elohim City, and had their own snitch, and their own agenda.

Judge Richard Matsch refused to let Howe tell any of this this to McVeigh's jury, ruling that she was unreliable.  Remember, she had been wired by the ATF, and filed regular reports as Agent 183. But she was unreliable. The FBI's position was that McVeigh was the lone gunman in the Texa s Boo--  I mean the lone bomber.  ABC's announced follow-up segment was squashed before it could air.  These specifics were missing from the HistChan report, and I think they're important.

Finally, and this hit me in the eyes at the time, when just days before his execution, it was discovered that the FBI failed to turn over some 4000 documents to McVeigh's legal team, it took only a few days before the Judge  ruled they were irrelevant, and ordered the execution to be carried out.  In normal circumstances McVeigh would still be dodging the hangman with various legal dodges.  Nobody in the US of A goes to the chair before having spent at least 15 years on death row.  Someone wanted this guy gone, PDQ. 

Personally, I think Bill Clinton did not want it revealed that a turf war between the FBI and ATF resulted in massive loss of life.  We all know how ''persuasive'' Slick can be when it comes to silencing bad news, don't we?  Let's talk about TWA 800 some day.

Here's some video snippage, and here's the transcript from that 20/20 show.

Myths dispelled

Frisco Freaks

Now that Nancy Pelosi has shattered the gender barrier, glass ceiling, and incredulity index all in one fell swoop, ordinary Americans are starting to worry that she may be just a tad too liberal to be second in the succession line for the U.S. presidency.

After all, Comrade Nancy does hail from San Francisco—the only American city that once tried to join the former USSR, but was rejected because Moscow found folks here too far to the left.  

Rest assured fellow citizens, Speaker-elect Pelosi poses no threat to the America that we all know and love.  At least not yet, that is.

For the purpose of calming the minds and stomachs of those fearing the worse once Nancy Pelosi is crowned to take over, several common myths and exaggerations concerning San Francisco liberalism must be debunked.

To wit, contrary to popular belief:

-It is NOT a felony to vote Republican in San Francisco, although it is a misdemeanor to register with the knowing intent of voting for a Republican at a future date.  

-A special permit is NOT required to fly Old Glory--except on Cinco de Mayo and Fidel Castro’s birthday.

-Speaking English is NOT a hate crime, except at fast-food restaurants, car washes, emergency rooms, and when speaking to Hispanics obviously here illegally.

-Displaying the logo of the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines does NOT violate city ordinances, unless one does so with an arrogant, “America First,” G.W. Bush-type of attitude.

-Attending a Christian church does NOT automatically subject one to higher property taxes: There is an appeals process available.

-Law enforcement job applicants are NOT required to prove that they are transvestite, gay, handicapped or a racial minority to qualify.

-Refusing to smoke marijuana when ordered to by an uniformed police officer is NOT a felony, except for anyone foolish enough to sport a “Bush-Cheney” bumper sticker.

-Working at Wal-Mart is NOT against city law, provided one can prove he or she is an illegal alien from Mexico.

-Abortions are NOT available on those fabulous cable cars, but may be arranged at most self-serve gas stations and progressive piano bars.

-Young Middle Eastern males who speak Arabic are NOT a protected minority until they have first been arrested and charged with a terrorist act(s).

-Being a straight, white, employed Christian male does NOT require one to notify the police before moving into a new neighborhood, or to be listed on a government web site.

-Securing a driver’s license does NOT automatically enroll one as a dues-paying member of the ACLU, and

-Convicted sex offenders moving into San Francisco are NOT automatically registered to vote as Democrats: They have 30 days in which to join the party and register.

So while liberalism is a severe mental disorder that will significantly impact Nancy Pelosi’s judgment, the good news is--heck, there is no good news!

Run for your lives!

Bad man, but a bad practice

Chafee: ''I was robbed!''
America: Yay!
Lincoln Chafee is blaming his defeat on a Rhode Island law that allows voters to walk into a polling station and ask for a Democrat Only ballot.  I don't know that he's right, but happy as I am to see him expelled by any means, I do see this practice as facilitating a hypnagogic state among the electorate, which in Rhode Island is gilding the lily.  Another bad-bad emerging practice is beginning the balloting days, if not weeks, before ''election day.''  The practice gives any political party with a penchant for manipulating the vote a big advantage.  Hell, why not let people call in their vote on January 1 of any election year?  Wait. There may be a small benefit in that, now that I think of it.  Organizations like ACORN, which specialize in vote fraud, wouldn't have to work so hard to find proxies for voters who died in the meanwhile.  Their ballots would already be cast.  That means a lessening of voter fraud. Woot!

Why We Lost

The answer is ''rudderless''

Annika, who did have the best header in show business (that I prudently archived) is also a thoughtful political and sports observer.  She blames Bush for the recent carnage that, I'll warrant, will come to be viewd as more devastating to this nation than the 9-11 attacks.  Here's a snip ...

Hugh Hewitt is the prime example. Don't get me wrong, Hugh Hewitt knows more about government and politics that I could ever hope to learn. His radio show is the highlight of my listening day. And he has done amazing work for the party before, as he will again. But Hugh's Townhall column today was so clueless, I think he must need some time off.

In an essay that's 1,351 words long, Hugh failed to cite the Iraq War even once as a possible cause for the Republicans being thrown out on their asses yesterday. Instead, incredibly, he blames John McCain:

The post-mortems are accumulating, but I think the obvious has to be stated: John McCain and his colleagues in the Gang of 14 cost the GOP its Senate majority while the conduct of a handful of corrupt House members gave that body's leadership [to] the Democrats.

I too blame Bush, but not because of the Iraq war. A dear friend, who voted straight Democrat this election, told my wife, "get over it, people just wanted a change."  When asked whether by ''change'' she meant going back to recession?, or a plummeting stock market?, or less security?  What?  She answered, "Just change." In other words, she picked Bud Light over Brand X even though she doesn't drink beer. 

Joe Lieberman was kicked out of the Democrat party for his strong stance on the war, and was resoundingly reelected in the liberal state of Connecticut over his polar opposite on that matter.  Now he's a Democrat again. 

Republicans were slaughtered because they acted like Democrats.  They pandered.  They spent like Democrats (with Bush's full support. One veto in six years!). In the Senate, weasels like John McCain and Lindsey Graham  were more interested in being liked by the media  than standing on principle. House Republicans, without Tom DeLay's iron hand, were school girls fleeing a mouse, which is why DeLay was targeted in the first place.  Punks. The libertarian wing of the party was appalled. I was appalled. 

Not many voters have the visceral hatred for Democrats that I do, they don't even know who Nancy Pelosi is.  What they heard for two years, on the rare occasion they were exposed to political news, was an incessant repetition of the "Culture of Corruption" chant, and had a vague sense that this stem cell thing was good, and opposition to it was bad.  In a nutshell, they are just as ignorant as ever, and vulnerable, as we all are, to powerful marketing campaigns.  Sometime in the next two years many of them will be saying, WTF?  I mean, how much Henry Waxman can a nation stomach? 

Term of Office Question

Civics

The thought occurred to me - and not for the first time, but with an added sense of urgency - that the Constitution is silent on certain questions of congressional representation.  For instance, if the San Francisco area, say  from Seattle,WA  to Orange County, fell into the sea, or was obliterated by a meteor having the force of  1200 nuclear bombs dropped from a B-52, would the people representing those, now non-existent, congressional districts get to complete their current terms?  What do you think?

e-mail trubble

Today's WTF?
I've had some weird things happen to me, but this is the strangest. Of a sudden I am getting replies to messages I never sent, but someone did. I am trying to establish a new E-mail addy with Verizon, but it won't take. I would think that someone got hold of my address book, but some of the mail is going to people I know, like bloggers, but whom I've never exchanged mail with, ever. WTF? If you get something from me out of the blue, I didn't send it.

We'll save a lot of money on NATO

Losers
Mark Steyn who is one of my most enjoyable reads, has a new book out [America Alone] that, unlike Tony Blankley's "The West's Last Chance: Will We Win the Clash of Civilizations?" doesn't see any real chance for Europe to forestall things.  Actually, Blankley didn't paint too rosy a picture either.  I see too much of us in this picture to suit me. If you want to buy it I am, under special license from Amazon, able to sell it to you for nearly half the published price.  Here's a snippet of  Richard Kirk's review.

''This population bust spells disaster for Ponzi-shaped welfare schemes that depend on young bodies to support generational transfers to oldsters who neglected the primary task of regeneration. Greece's pension liabilities, for example, are projected to reach 25% of GDP by 2040. More immigration from people-rich Muslim nations is the clear "solution" to this demographic vacuum -- a solution that's already altered the habits of women in Amsterdam and London who "cover up" to avoid jeers in increasingly Muslim neighborhoods. Such examples show how, in Western Europe, assimilation has come to mean (as Kofi Annan implied when commenting on the Danish cartoon violence) a nation adjusting its ways to accommodate new arrivals.

''Steyn's term, "Eurabia," suggests the future he foresees for a continent flirting with a "demographic death spiral" and brooding in the lounge of that "old ennui." Rotterdam, where the Muslim population is 40%, may presage the shape of things by 2050 -- or sooner if "white-flight" out of "Eutopia" accelerates. In such an environment, "Pre-modern Islam beats post-modern Christianity." Put more dramatically, it's unlikely that "Pornistan" will peacefully co-exist with "the Islamic Republic of Holland." And in the struggle between those two, the strong horse doesn't belong to those who take pride in the fact that they aren't prepared to die for anything.''

My first instinct Wednesday morning was to re-display Baxter Black's "prayer'' on Schlong-O-Vision.  The reason I did not was his recognition of our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan breaks my heart now.  What must they feel like? [Insert: Troops use blogs to soldier on, sound off on election]. I'll be honest with you, in weaker moments I have fantasized about them returning home, overthrowing this government, and executing Jack Murtha, John Kerry, Pinch Sulzberger, and all the other treasonous bastards.  But, then I get strong again with the aid of Prozac, and this 1996 recipe from Robert Bork

Bell said the ban largely came about because the trustees didn't want to publicly vow loyalty to the American government before their meetings. "Loyalty ought to be something the government earns through performance, not through reciting a pledge," he said.

That's Jason Bell, one of three Orange Coast College student trustees who somehow were able to ban the Pledge of Allegiance from being recited at their meetings. Nobody likes it, but nobody has done the expedient thing either.

''One does not negotiate with wild animals'' - some guy

When dealing with animals

''With the Senate hanging in the balance both Conrad Burns and George Allen have done the right thing by conceding their respective races. Hopefully, they have set an example for future politicians in close elections - who lose - of how true statesman and patriots should respect the will of voters and not engage lawyers and the courts in blatant attempts to hold on to power.

''Politicians who deliberately and cynically undermine the faith in our elective process do great damage to this country for cheap short-term political gain. Respect for the rule of law and the willingness to live with heartbreaking defeats is critical to the long-term well being of our democratic system of government.'' -Allen Does the Right Thing


That's all true, and very gentlemanly John.  Except, when you're dealing with committed ideologues - be they communists, Islamo radicals, democrats, or any man eater on the scent, acting in a civil matter will mean the end of you. The notion that Democrats will respond in kind is preposterous. The only thing they understand is the maul.

I've had this ["Report: Bush dropped ball in ethics probes"] bookmarked for years, because it struck me then as a fatal flaw in Dubyah's makeup.  His dad lived by the same code.  In 1992 the Justice Department had the goods on the Clintons, and without the power of the Presidency to protect them, both would certainly have been imprisoned along with everyone else involved in the Madison Guaranty fraud, and watched the 1993 Inauguration from a prison cell.  (In March of '92, Resolution Trust Corp produced the first (of ten) criminal referrals related to Madison Bank.  The lead criminal investigator on the case was Jean Lewis. In March of 1993 President Clinton fired all career U.S. Attorneys, and  then Jean Lewis.  "The Special Committee's Whitewater Report").  

The verdict of history will be that this was the time to start breaking things.

Mystery Comedy Theatre
What?  Are we going to be like those Palm Beach assholes who needed a shrink after Bush's election?  Or  whiny liberal pukes fleeing to Canada? This isn't over.  Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! What Americans do during times of crisis is gird their loins, and go to war.  There will be many opportunities to smite these fuckers.  In the meanwhile, here's the opening of my new novel, a comedy/crime thriller.  Maybe you can improve on it.  Or come up with a better scenario.  Let's laugh, drink, eat meat, screw, drink some more, and puncture tires of that neighbor with the O'Malley yard sign!  Be productive.  Hoo-ahhhhhhhhh!
Inspector Clouseau was baffled. Thousands of Americans, apparently all of them democrat activists, had decided to commit suicide. He was reading from news accounts in a Washington Times newspaper. The concierge had apologized, explaining that the requested New York Times had evidently not published today. Had the biggest names in American journalism also answered this mysterious siren's call? The news accounts were stark.

Speaker Pelosi found hanged.  Kennedy shot in apparent suicide.  Leahy, Reid, Schumer, all dead.  It appeared that there was not a single living elected democrat left in the nation.  The death toll was in the tens of thousands.  Surely the act of a criminal mastermind, mused Clouseau as he buttered a croissant. The problem was, most of these suicides were witnessed. He himself had watched a man with a Greek name, from an organization named ''KOS,'' accuse someone named ''Rove'' of the murders. Then, and on a live CNN feed, he produced a pistol and shot himself in the head.

When CNN had suddenly gone off air, he switched to Fox News Channel.  Reports were pouring in from other parts of the country.  Entertainment names.  Streisand, Redford, Newman ... all dead by their own hand.  A ''Michael Moore'' tied a rope around his neck, and jumped off a California overpass.  His weight caused the head to pop off, the torso slamming into the windshield of a passing automobile.

This would be an interesting case, thought Clouseau.   Damn.  He had nearly severed his pinky with the butter knife.

Mayland is a cancer

In four years as Maryland's Governor, Bob Ehrlich turned his predecessor's crippling budget defect into a budget surplus.  He has been so successful that the Washington Post, for maybe the first time in history, endorsed a Republican, Ehrlich, over a Democrat, Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley.  The mayor's greatest achievement was getting an Ehrlich aide fired for talking about his  extra-marital affair with Baltimore television babe Sade Baderinwa.  Oh, and firing a half dozen police chiefs. 

On Tuesday Maryland voters elected O'Malley.  His father in law is J. Joseph Curran, Jr., the longest serving attorney general in Maryland history (since 1987). In 1994 Republican Ellen Sauerbrey defeated Parris Glendenning for governor. Or so it seemed. With all votes counted , the networks had called the race for Sauerbrey, when suddenly just enough votes to put Glendenning ahead quite magically appeared in Baltimore City. Curran, who was elected on the same ticket, was in charge of investigating the ''possible'' fraud. You can guess how that went.

When you speak of Maryland Democrats, you're speaking of three areas of the state populated by liberals, grown fat off the gummint tit, lesser government hangers-on, and welfare succubi (Montgomery County, Prince George's County, and Baltimore City, in that order). The rest of Maryland, for the most part, would just as soon all three were vaporized, none more than I. So, Maryland, for this latest outrage, and a score of others, YOU ARE FUCKING MORONS.

Senate Majority Leader Lieberman?

Juicy Juicy

Vice President Cheney congratulates new Senate Majority Leader Lieberman, and his wife Hadassah.
I'm sure this has been addressed elsewhere, but what the hell.  If George Allen pulls it out we have a 50-50 Senate. Cheney the tie-breaker keeps it Republican. If Webb prevails, then it's nominally 51-49, Donks.  I say nominally because Robert Menendez, just elected in New Jersey, will probably be indicted soon, maybe even before Christmas. But, never mind.  That won't keep him out since  Democrats only recognize a jail cell as reason to expel one of their own.  If he had the good sense to step down (under pressure, as did Torricelli),  then the man who appointed him in the first place, Gov. Corzine, would select his leftwing replacement.  Alas. That leaves Joe Lieberman, just elected as an Independent.

The issue that caused the fissure between him and Democrats was Iraq. It's a certainty that Democrats in the House will do what they do best, and that's refuse to fund any war that lasts longer than a Kennedy stay at the Betty Ford Clinic.  That leaves the Senate as the President's only ally.  It seems to me that Lieberman would show a great lack of integrity by voting to organize the Senate under Democrat rule.  Will he show the integrity of  2006 Lieberman, or the 2000 version, when he took just 30 seconds as Gore's running mate to jettison every principle he had?

It would be the juiciest of jucies if Lieberman cast the deciding vote that kept the Senate under GOP control.  Just juicy. Mr. Majority Leader.  Oh stop.  Could he be any worse than Trent Lott, or Whats-his-name?  I don't think so, and it would cause several coronaries.

How about a shipyard Senator?

Happy Days Are Here Again

Sen. Robert Byrd, 88-year-old Democrat from West Virgina, was elected to a record 10th term yesterday.  With the possibility that Democrats will control the Senate, Byrd ordered state workers to begin resodding 4,573 miles of  highway this morning.  ''I'll need something to spend money on,'' said Byrd, ''and a  Superconducting Super Collider accelerator thing will take time to get funded.''   It's estimated that West Virginia has fewer than 5000 automobiles in working condition.

I'm going with Occam's razor


Blah-blah-blah.  The truth of the matter is Republicans made themselves vulnerable with their fiscal irresponsibility, and the media made it possible for democrats to run on virtually no issues.· Those they did espouse were done behind a veil of lies and distortions (stem cells) much like the 1992 "Worst economy in our nations history" Clint-lie was allowed to stand,· unchallenged, by a sycophant media.· In the final analysis though, I think it's probably nothing more than this ...
The average first midterm election loss for every elected president since 1914 is 27 House seats and three Senate seats. The average sixth-year midterm election, like this year, is much worse for the president's party, which typically loses 34 seats in the House and six seats in the Senate.

This makes the average loss in two midterm elections for the party in the White House: 30 House seats and four or five Senate seats in each midterm election.

In his first midterm election, George W. Bush picked up six House seats and two Senate seats — making him, according to The New York Times, "the first Republican president to gain House seats in an off-year election" and only the third president of either party to pick up House seats in a midterm election since the Civil War.

This means that for Democrats simply to match the historical average gain for the party out of the White House during the first and second midterm, they would have to pick up 67 seats in the House and 11 seats in the Senate. They're about 30 Mark Foleys short of having that happen.

It at least seems clear that Democrat gains this year are going to fall far short of the historical average. No poll has the Democrats winning even half of their rightful midterm gains.

Despite the precedent of big wins in midterm elections for the party out of power — especially in a sixth-year midterm election — something is depressing the Democrats' popularity with Americans this year. I suspect it's the perception that many of them are Democrats.

But instead of recognizing that the Democratic Party is a dying party, falling far short of its due historical gains, any gain by the Democrats will be hailed as a crowning mandate for the party that wants to lose the Iraq war, shut down Guantanamo and stop spying on Islamic terrorists on U.S. soil.

Even a dying party has death throes. If Democrats win a slight majority in the House or Senate, Americans will get shrill, insane leadership of the nation in time of war.

Democrats can't not be crazy. They will instantly set to work enacting a national gay marriage law, impeachment hearings, slavery reparations and a series of new federal felonies for abortion clinic protesters. The only way to get Democrats to focus on terrorists would be to convince them that the terrorists are interfering with a woman's right to choose or that commercial jetliners exploding in midair are a threat to America's wetlands. -- "Jihad is Fun!

Bush Gives Top Ten Positive Outcomes of Election
Be Happy

(2006-11-08) — President George Bush, in an effort to lift the spirits of dejected Republicans after Democrats yesterday took the House and perhaps the Senate, this morning issued his Top Ten list of Positive Outcomes from the Election.

10. New York Times and CNN will carry much less negative news about Congress.
9. Rhode Island Republican Sen. Lincoln Chafee lost and Connecticut Democrat Sen. Joe Lieberman won, a net gain of two for the GOP.
8. We may finally get to see the Democrat plan for victory in Iraq.
7. Taxpayers will be relieved of the burden of making so many investment decisions.
6. Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is now available for Supreme Court appointment.
5. Possible reduction in attacks on our troops in Iraq, since terrorists fear attorneys.
4. NSA agents could soon be freed from having to listen to annoying terrorist chatter.
3. Lynn Swann will be remembered as a great wide receiver during the Pittsburgh Steelers 1970s dynasty.
2. Since a lot of the polling places are in church buildings, millions of Democrats actually went to church yesterday.
1. C-Span could get a ratings boost for new reality show: Impeachment 2007

In addition, the president noted that “millions of American Democrats will sleep more peacefully now that they are assured that Karl Rove doesn’t control everything.”

Election Joke

The Senator and the Devil
While walking down the street one day a US Senator is tragically hit by a truck and dies. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."

"No problem, just let me in," says the man.

"Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity."

"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven," says the Senator.

"I'm sorry, but we have our rules."

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse.  Standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people.

They play a friendly game of golf; and then dine on lobster, caviar and champagne.

Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that before he realizes it, it is time to go.  Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises... The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.

"Now it's time to visit heaven."

So, 24 hours pass with the Senator joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing.  They have
a good time. Before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.

"Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now choose your eternity."

The Senator reflects for a minute, then he answers: "Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I
think I would be better off in hell."

So St Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.

Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.

He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above.

The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulder.  "I don't understand," stammers the Senator. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse. We ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable.  What happened?"

The devil looks at him, smiles and says,

Yesterday we were campaigning...... Today you voted."
