Thank you, Jim, for sharing your right-wing vision of the ideal American worker: submissive, uncomplaining, and 100% disposable.

Who Moved My Cheese? is every CEO’s wet dream, and we now see it’s the Republican dream as well. “You workers will take whatever abuse we want to dish out, and like it!” I wonder how many drones will chime in with their earnest agreement, eager and thankful for the chance to be treated like crap, the way Braswell was?

I’m glad Mr. Braswell survived what was done to him; that doesn’t make it right.

Such a fine story, Jim Wooten. I love to read about people who have developed the good character that lies within each one of us. Perhaps it is not possible for some but here in America we have the best chance in the world.

Thank you, Jim, and best wishes to Mr. Braswell and his mother, who did a good part by him. Everybody should be so lucky.

Here is perhaps a difference between conservatives and liberals: Copyleft refers to “what was done to,” Mr. Braswell. I would refer to it as “what happened to,” Mr. Braswell. My employer does not owe it to me to keep this facility open. So, I, like Mr. Braswell are responsible for dealing with what happens to us. I admire his attitude.

One key to Mr. Braswell’s success was that there was an available job. Rather than debating whether his good outcome was due to work ethic, luck, gov’t help, etc., the community and the leadership need to pro-actively generate ideas that will create quality jobs and opportunities for all interested citizens.

Good for Mr. Braswell. I wonder if Lottery money was used for his furthering his education. If so, that is one good reason to play, a voluntary tax for schools.

This really does seem against the RIGHT Wing Republican way………

“When the plant closed, he and other workers had a chance to go back to school, relying on state and federal assistance.”

Since when do Right wingers Pride themselves in “Federal Assistance Programs” ?

Well I guess Jim found one program that he likes that helps typical Americans….that’s great Jim, what was the name of that program?

I am sure he really likes the COST PLUS Programs the Military contractors like Halliburton, KBG, and Blackwater gets to use as they Bilk America…..you know Jim the more they spend, the more profit they make, even if it is “Made Up Spending”, as in $1.2 Billion by Halliburton for stuff they never did?

Come On Jim, lets get REAL today…… One guy gets a new job, wow that is great…….

Gee I know allot of folks almost in the same position, only they just lost their job because they got older, and were replaced by younger folks so the business would not have to pay so much.

I friend of mine is 60, and she is starting over.

This is happening in Corporate America every day.

Can you tell these folks what that education program is JIM?

I am sure some would like to know.

When are you WRONGS going to talk about the huge Military contracts that are Bilking America, doled out by the Cheney clan ?

This wasn’t Mr. Braswell’s job. This wasn’t George Bush’s job.

This job was owned by his employer, and they can choose to do whatever they want with it, including eliminating it, or moving it to Mexico (wherever) if circumstances change that makes it more favorable to do so.

You socialist whiners come along and think Mr. Braswell is OWED SOMETHING more.

He was owed for his work, and THAT IS ALL.

Mr. Braswell seems to be just fine with that arrangement—the arrangement that independence and self sufficiency— that has made this country great.

Now the patsys, nannies and the whiners come along and decide he is owed more.

It’s nothing less than communism and socialism you are talking about.

Great story Jim. Mr. Braswell is the kinda guy who, without hesitation gets right back on the horse what throwed him. That buckin’ bronco’s name is “Life”.

Now through his tax wittholdings he can support the whiners who I view as those running around the barnyard like chickens with their heads cut off looking for the government’s corny kernels.

If’n you like Mr. Roy, you’d like my husband. His first job ended in a buy-out. He dabbled in the mortgage business, got his real estate license only to find that the business was too cut-throat. Ended up being more of a financial adviser to those in over their heads and wanting to go further in debt. “If you’re willing to unload some of your non-essential liability, then we can do business” he’d say.

He was then hired by the federal government - inefficient, wasteful, and non-productive. That didn’t suit him at all, realizing that it was his tax dollars going for naught. Excellent retirement benefits though if you can survive the boredom.

All the time, putting money away for a rainy day. It allows him to adopt the attitude of……”I was looking for a job when I found this one” he tells his employers. Makes his employers a little nervous when negotiating salary increases.

Congratulations to Roy Braswell!

But you just keep in mind, Mr. Wooten, that the corporate “free interprise” system that you toot so much about, is rigged against the American people, not for them.

“Free innerprize” is the correct term.

Your type didn’t want to listen when Ross Pyrot warned against NAFTA and that “sucking sound of jobs leaving America.”

When one percent of this nation control ninety-five percent of its wealth, things are out of balance.

Those top one percent know that. Which is another reason why we have satellites and other methods to spy on the American people.

I’ll not live to see it, but one day in the future, the American people will rightfully rebell; and that scares the hell out of your one percent types.

Uh, Communist@10:07, I don’t think that many American jobs are going to Europe. They have high taxes, comprehensive benefits and social programs, too. Where the jobs are going is developing countries like China and India, where they often have low wages, no benefits, low environmental standards, etc.

When we’re ready to live paycheck to paycheck and hand to mouth, in a filthy environment with no social safety net — so upper management can continue to pull in, like, 400 times the workers’ pay — the jobs will be back.

I’m glad Mr. Braswell was able to find another job. I’m sure he’s a good man and a good worker. I just have to wonder about all the other laid off workers. Does Mr. Wooten know what happened to them? Were they able to find good jobs, too? And if they weren’t, are we to assume that it’s because they have a bad work ethic, a negative outlook, no determination to bounce back and harbor bitterness and blame? Or can we assume that perhaps there just aren’t enough good jobs to go around for good people sometimes?

This story reminds me of a para-parable, (those quasi-semi-precursor parables upon which the real parables were modeled, but which never quite made any sense).

Para-parable #41

The Patsy

A man who owned a very large olive tree farm kept hiring anyone who wanted to work, so as to ensure the timely harvest and delivery to customers. The workers grew bitter, because their own hours were cut short to accomodate new hires. No overtime either, with so many workers. Finally, a rival tribesman showed up wanting work and was hired. That was the final straw. The foreman conspired with the disgruntled workers to trick the new hire and teach the owner a lesson about trusting just anybody.

They told the new hire that the owner wanted him to take a wagonload of olive oil to the marketplace, about three days journey. He was to leave in the morning and take the mountain pass. The plan was that when the owner asked where his missing wagon was, the workers would pretend not to know. The owner would put two and two together, and dispatch fast horseriders to overtake the wagon and bring the thief back to justice. Then, properly embarrassed, the owner would entrust all future hiring to the foreman who should have been doing the hiring all along, and everyone would be happy.

Morning came, and the owner noticed the missing worker, missing olive oil, and missing wagon. He asked the foreman, who claimed not to know, but who also suggested that the mountain pass was the only logical way to get a wagon out of the valley. Suspecting a thief, the owner dispatched fast horseriders to overtake the wagon.

But the horsemen never saw any wagon on the mountain road. The new hire had taken a less traveled road, which meandered a bit through the desert, in order to save time. On the first day out, he met some of his own tribesmen who eagerly bought the oil and paid a premium for the convenience, the market place being so far away. So, by sundown, the new hire returned to the olive farm and gave the owner the money. Delighted at the bonanza, the owner asked him why he had taken the wagon in the first place. When he fingered the foreman, the owner grew furious, and fired the foreman and all the other workers. He replaced them with anyone who applied including many rival tribesman. The old enmities eased and an era of peace settled upon the valley. Oh, and the name of the new hire? That’s right, you guessed it: Roy Braswell

And so I say to you this day, dont be bitter about your career, keep a positive outlook, and a strong work ethic, and go to night school to better yourself.

Mr. Braswell is truly an overcome. He did not wait for opportunity to come to his door; he took the initiative to make it happen. He counted his gains and his losses and made the necessary steps to move forward. This man was determined and focused driven. He proves to all dislocated workers that there are chances for you to make it-if you first stay focused and optimistic. My hat is off to you Mr. Braswell. Something good came out of your difficult situation. You had the chance to receive a higher education in which so many Americans take for granted. You can never get 38 yrs. back, but you can rejoice at starting a new career that is so rewarding and enjoyable.

Congratulations to Mr. Braswell; I’m glad it worked out for him. However it doesn’t work out for a lot of people. Most wind up eventually taking a job at less money, fewer benefits, etc. As for the company he worked for, I’m not familiar with it and know none of the reasons for their closing. I do know that Mr. Braswell gave them 38 years and to me that counts for something. What the business world fails to acknowledge is that loyalty is a two way street. I remember a story a few years ago of a man somewhere up north who owned a factory. He was an older man and the factory burned down. Instead of just taking the money and moving on he rebuilt his factory and paid his employees during the time they were out of work due to the fire. I also knew a man a few years ago who owned a small manufacturing plant who was gonna move it to SC because he “couldn’t afford to pay $6 an hour for labor”. He could, however, afford to have 2 $70K automobiles that he wrote off to his company. Just an observation.

That’s terrific for Mr. Braswell!! I wonder if Mr. Wooten would have written this story if Mr. Braswell has shared some other American issues in addition to losing his long-time job shortly before retirement. For example, what if he’d been a few years younger and his house and truck HADN’T been paid off yet? What if his wife were in the midst of chemo for which insurance wasn’t paying what they thought, and they had to refinance to afford life-saving drugs or procedures, or divest completely in order to receive assistance? What if Mr. Braswell himself suffered from a pre-existing medical condition and was unable to get re-insured? I have no doubt that Mr. Braswell would have been just as tenacious in his efforts to survive, but would Mr. Wooten have written about him if catastrophic medical bills had caused him to LOSE HIS HOME — like so many others — in the midst of all this?

Para-parable #45

The Jester

King Herod was entertaining some Philistines when they grew tired of the dancing girls and demanded something else. Herod clapped for the court jester, who ran out into the celebration and opened with a sure fire joke that killed in kiosks along the Appian Way just weeks before. (That’s how he had made it to Herod’s). But his opening bombed. And he was soon hearing crickets and chirps from imaginary insects that only court jesters can hear. Precious seconds were clicking away, as one bit after another failed to get anything. Even participants of an orgy, which had broken out earlier when the dancing girls were on, were embarrassed and began to disentangle…..

Panicked, the jester reached into his memory for some standard repertoire stuff only hacks would use. It killed! “To cross the road!” BWAAAAA!!! “I dont mind you schtupping my wife, but do you gotta use my rear end as a scoreboard?” BWAAAAAAA!!! “Nah, you wont see nuthin’, your balls’ll be in the way.” BWAAAAAAA!!!

It was a roaring success and Herod announced he was the new permanent MC of all the orgies, dinners, and celebrations for the next year.

But then, Herod, with a new appreciation for comedy, visited a few kiosks along the Appian Way where jester after jester was doing the same hack material (to no laughs) that his new MC had used to big laughs. Herod, in fact, laughed alone at an old joke that only drew “you suck” from the crowd. When the crowd turned to inspect Herod, (in disquise), he pretended he had coughed, not laughed, and pointed at his throat and said, “Fig pollen”. Herod escaped and was furious. He realized he’d been tricked, not only by his new MC, but by the Phillistines who apparently laugh at anything. Herod declared war on the Phillistines, and beheaded his new MC.

And so I say unto you this day. Dont hack, so that ye shall not be hacked.

If anyone ever had any questions about what a clueless idiot Obama is, just look at him babble an answer out UNSCRIPTED. Only to a mindless fainting liberal Obamanic would this “answer” make any sense.

I wonder how long this will stay on You Tube before the Obamanics pull the plug on it. What a bumbling babbling moron. This is what we need to see more of, and EXACTLY why the Obamaic campaign wants tight control to access to The Man.

And this is who the media and other mindless zombies in this nation want for our next president? He don’t do too well in unscripted uncontrolled situations, do he?

I see the usual sick and twisted gangrenous retarded leftist hate pigs are still on here puking up their endless deranged anti-America venom.

As ever the odious, groundlessly supercilious leftist nazi wankpig, the ever more execrable narcissistic aborted foreskin dogturd needs to immediately plop its humungous wobbly flabby cellulite ridden treasonous lardarse down on half a dozen empty syringes and inject itself with a number of surrender monkey dickhead seeking Bush Derangement Syndrome air bubbles.

This socially inadequate, anally unfunny rabid nutter aborted foreskin should be bounced like a haggish butch roly poly Rosie O D ike through as many Afghani minefields as it takes to at least try and blow some scintilla of rational thought into what passes for its atrophied almost completely withered queeralciousturdbrain, cunningly surrounded since that infanous experimental test tube birth birth by one of Dixie’s most withered witless pea brained knumbskulls!!

U gotta love my wickedly funny OTT humour …

On a more serious note:

I see the elephant eared half-black black racist nonentity Hussein Obama, scurrilously and criminally aided and abetted by the fawning party of hate media, is allowing its unhinged self absorbed narcissistic self love to dominate its current Goebbels like propoganda tour. Let’s all kind of hope (well - ever so slightly, maybe) that the fascist towel heads who share Hussein’s bestial culture/genes don’t have access to the sullen anti-white elephant eared one’s schedule so they can’t do us all a big favour and gloriously impact (snigger snigger) the vilest of modern campaigns and easily by FAR the worst ever presidential candidate in US history’s despicable perfidious anti-American slither toward the White House.

AMMAN, Jordan - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said Tuesday that security in Iraq has improved and that the United States urgently needs to turn its attention to Afghanistan.

“There is security progress, but now we need a political solution” in Iraq, Obama said in the first news conference of his highly publicized trip abroad. Afghanistan is now the “central front in the war against terrorism,” he added.

“The situation in Afghanistan is perilous and urgent,” he said. “We must act now to reverse a deteriorating situation.”

He reiterated his goal of withdrawing combat troops from Iraq within 16 months of becoming president. But he said he would consult with military commanders to determine how many troops to keep in the country to protect diplomatic and humanitarian operations, to train Iraqis and to conduct counterterrorism operations against al-Qaida in Iraq.

“My goal is to no longer have U.S. troops engaged in combat operations in Iraq,” he said.

Obama and his two traveling Senate companions, Democrat Jack Reed of Rhode Island and Republican Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, all emphasized at the news conference the need to turn U.S. attention to Afghanistan and to help Pakistan confront a growing terrorist presence within its borders.

Obama acknowledged that the U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen. David Petraeus, does not want a timetable for withdrawal of U.S. combat forces.

“He wants to retain as much flexibility as possible,” Obama said. “What I emphasized to him was … if I were in his shoes, I’d probably feel the same way. But my job as a candidate for president and a potential commander in chief extends beyond Iraq.” Obama said he also needs to take into account the security needs in Afghanistan, the views of the Iraqi government and the potential domestic uses for the money now being spent in Iraq.

Tucker Bounds, spokesman for Republican candidate John McCain, responded, “By admitting that his plan for withdrawal places him at odds with Gen. David Petraeus, Barack Obama has made clear that his goal remains unconditional withdrawal rather than securing the victory our troops have earned.”

Meantime in London on Tuesday, Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Britain will begin a major troop withdrawal from Iraq in early 2009, if security continues to improve and work to train local security forces is completed. Britain currently has around 4,100 troops in Iraq, based mainly on the outskirts of Basra.

Brown told lawmakers Britain will keep current numbers in place for several months, but Britain’s role in Iraq will change next year from combat and military training to boosting the economy of the oil-rich southern region.

Obama arrived in Jordan after a tour of war zones in Afghanistan and Iraq. He stepped off his military aircraft carrying body armor, orange earplugs sticking out of his ears.

His joint news conference with Reed and Hagel was at the Amman Citadel, an ancient hilltop ruin that bears evidence of settlements dating to 2000 B.C. The skyline of modern-day Amman, cement dwellings and the occasional mosque, formed a made-for-television backdrop.

Later, he was scheduled to have talks with Jordan’s King Abdullah.

Before he left Iraq, Obama traveled to a former hotbed of the Sunni insurgency for talks Tuesday with tribal leaders who joined the fight against al-Qaida in Iraq and now seek a deeper role in Iraq’s political future.

Obama met leaders of the so-called Awakening Council movement in Ramadi, one of the main cities of the western Anbar Province where al-Qaida once had the upper hand against embattled U.S. and Iraqi troops.

Tribal sheiks last year began an uprising against insurgents that is credited with uprooting extremist strongholds and helping bring violence around Iraq to its lowest levels in four years.

The meetings came near the end of Obama’s two-day stop in Iraq, where he held discussions with Iraqi leaders on possible troops withdrawal initiatives and was briefed by top U.S. military commanders.

Iraq was the third leg of a tour that’s included Kuwait and Afghanistan. From Jordan, his trip moves on to Israel and Europe.

He leaves Iraq with a possible political boost: Iraqi backing for his hope of withdraw U.S. combat troops by 2010.

Iraqi leaders on Monday stopped short of giving specific timetables or endorsing Obama’s proposal to withdraw combat troops within 16 months if he wins the presidency. But their comments fit roughly into Obama’s campaign pledge.

The Iraqi government appears increasingly confident to press for timeframes as violence drops and Iraqi security forces expand their roles alongside the 147,000 U.S. soldiers in the country.

“We are hoping that in 2010 that combat troops will withdraw from Iraq,” the government spokesman, Ali al-Dabbagh, said Monday after Obama met with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

Obama released a statement late Monday noting that Iraqis want an “aspirational timeline, with a clear date,” for the departure of U.S. combat forces.

*WASHINGTON — Republican presidential hopeful John McCain and his Democratic rival Barack Obama are in the final stretch of the process of selecting their running mates — even if they won’t openly say so. *

I hope for the nation’s sake I am wrong, but I have an uneasy feeling that McCain is going to screw this thing up royally and choose some neo-con numbnut and chickenhawk like Romney.

IF he selects anyone even remotely close to this absurd administration, or its ridiculous ideology, get ready to say Hello President Obama. As the moderates, centrists, innumerable disgusted Republicans and dismayed Democrats will drop him faster than Larry Craig his pants in a public stall.

And Sen. Obama may well only hurt himself further with his choice. If he picks another far left liberal he hands the White House to McCain. Guaranteed. And if he picks a more accommodating, older Democratic centrist, it might, but will probably not change many minds about his fitness for the job.

And to heighten the suspense, the Beijing/WalMart Games start in a few weeks…

But I’m in this thing for the long haul. Not just for some moronic dance every four years where the nation swings hard left and then hard right.

You know I count you as one of the good guys, D; but simply put, there is almost no way in h&ll I’ll vote for Sen. Obama.

Let me get this straight. We’re just about finished suffering through the worst imaginable presidency in our history. The two main hallmarks of this loser in the White House? An ideological extremist and clearly and obviously unqualified for the job. (His history of previous failures was a mile long.)

The two main hallmarks of Obama? An extremist (Apparently with the most liberal voting record in the US Senate) and obviously unqualified for the job. Just what EXACTLY has he done/accomplished to refute this?

And the choices he’s made as to the people he has surrounded himself with include an intolerant religious nut job “advisor”. Granted he is apparently very bright as compared to the mental midget that George is, but his inability to surround himself with great people is, so far, VERY reminiscent.

No thanks.

The only scenario I could vote for him is if McCain chooses some dipstick “conservative” and much more importantly if Nader fails to get on the ballot in Georgia.

Obama will bring a new kind of politics. Just because McCain says he’s typical doesn’t mean that he is. The statement that he has “the most liberal voting record in congress” is an opinion created by a republican to hurt him politically.

I feel the same way you do about “politics” and the way it is carried out. One side can do no wrong if they’re your party and the other side can do no right if they’re the other party.

I still feel however that Obama is going to introduce something we haven’t seen before, even if he has to play the typical politico card in the meantime.

But don’t get me wrong. If Obama wins the White House I will not be at all upset. And if the GOP screw ups in the House and Senate get shellacked once again this fall, all the better.

I’m gonna have to get you to show me where I used the word “scum” which usually floats to the top.

Teachers? I’ve found too many instances where tenure prohibits a teacher from rising to their full potential. Merit pay is rarely withheld by the higher-ups regardless of merit lacking in a teacher’s performance. Besides, you may want to ask a leftist what they think of teachers. They’re constantly complaining about the quality of education in this country. Money alone won’t motivate a teacher. Either their heart is invested in a kids’ future or it isn’t.

Policemen and firemen? You may wanna ask political protesters, those living in crime-ridden neighborhoods - they rarely speak highly of law enforcement personnel or firefighters. Nope, they sure don’t, but I put them among those who risk their lives to serve. The first responders in the event of a threat to national security.

The corporal is new to this himself…we believe you, kind sir. We dont think that you’re Glennduhng or some other pup with a new Dell, (lapdog w/laptop), kind sir. Welcome to the blog. We need more gerund abusers. Honest. Watch your temper…..

Philosophy tempers all spin. Spin foments in the socio-cultural tide that forms the gene pool by which observations are constrained. Even though every observer matters, a good man knows his own limitations. However, each individual spin can change the tide. One person can make a difference. People need to know that they matter.

That’s why blogs always end up in troll wars. The troll’s feeling get hurt because all trolls know that Einstein himself said every observeration is valid. Every observation. So when I personally read a piece from Bookman or Wooten and then expose it for the poetic stream it truly is, then it’s easy to understand why even their wives loathe their wet-seat journalism, (and diluted gene pool)

It’s also easy to understand why the world has never known ten seconds of peace. There’s always been a war somewhere. There’s dozens of wars waging right now. Communication is simply impossible. We all read and translate uniquely. I can never fully tell you what I’m thinking. You will spin it.

Question: what does The Messiah have in leadership experience to tell a military leader that he is wrong? Remember, it was Patraeus that said we need a troop surge to calm things down, and at first, The Messiah was against that too. Now of course, The Messiah has taken down all references to his comments against the surge on his website and those websites for him.

You call this leadership potential? We’ve seen this clown get jack-lipped over the surge comment already as someone posted here yesterday.

Are you of the same age, and feeble mind of John McCain?

And, Dusty you keep trying to equate Obama’s policy of talking to foreign countries, as equal to Chamberlains gift of Czechoslovakia to the Nazis…Give it up girl…You need to go bake a cake or something!

The Neville Chamberlain fiasco with Hitler was probably the greatest art in the form of a one man show ever given.

A man holding a flimsy piece of paper and proclaiming “Peace in our Times”. Then came the catastrophe for the ages.

It showed that we cant avoid war when it comes. If one man can start a world war, then why not try to talk him out of it? If war is inevitable, and it is, then what are the conservatives saying, “Strike first?”. then we become the hitler, dont you see?

You have to try diplomacy first, and war should only be a last resort.

War is so cruel and brutal, a reasonable person will avoid it or at least try to avoid it at all costs, untill there is no viable alternative but to unleash the dogs of war which will run rampant and take everything dear with them.

If we’re to have perpetual war in the middle east, let those future generations take solace that good men tried to avoid the conflict, that the cruel world they face was inevitable. Dont let them find out that a boy king’s whimsical toy soldiering betrayed an entire world into the fray.

Dont let them find out, it may dishearten them even more. We didn’t have to invade Iraq. There wasnt’ supposed to be an Iraq war.

McCain would rather lose an election than lose a war. That’s like picking up a terd and saying “it looks like sh!t, it smells like sh!t, and it tastes like sh!t, but I’m sure glad I didn’t step in it.”

McCain cant describe any conditions on the ground that would constitute a loss in Iraq. Who would we surrender to, the Iraqis?

Is that the loss? Who would we lose to? Which faction? The kurds?

I’d rather lose an election than surrender Iraq to the Iraqis?

Do you conservatives ever think anything through?

Duhng. I’m going to give you the floor: What is the mission of US troops in Iraq?

Hey Dusty very Funny ! “Mr. Wooten you are a GEM! You write from the heart, unlike the LIB Bookman.”

Senator: Waste, fraud, neglect hurting U.S. soldiers

(CNN) — Tens of billions in taxpayer dollars have been lost, wasted or remain unaccounted for in Afghanistan and Iraq, and some of those funds — and some missing weapons — have landed in insurgents’ hands, a U.S. senator alleged Wednesday.

Too bad the Republicans can’t add and subtract, and watch where the money goes…..no wonder we have all the current chrisis we have.

This what I have been blogging about for awhile now………

All we hear from the WRONGS, is Democrats will raise Taxes…….. the truth comes out……Republicans WASTE MORE MONEY, and LOOSE MORE MONEY THROUGH Shoddy accounting, than the Democrats could tax us !

You Wrongs should watch the Movie …… “Iraq for sale” then you might really understand how much REAL money this administration has wasted, and how badly this administration has Bilked America with the cost plus contracts, all to the “Favorite” Players !

You know the Halliburtons, the Blackwaters, and the likes of KRB’s.

The real reason Bush does NOT want to leave Iraq is because the contracts for ALL his and Darth Vader’s (Dick Cheney) buddies will have to end!

It is about Money…………and because Bin Laden is on the loose it is DEFINITELY NOT about American Security !

Watchdog reporting central to the AJC’s mission- Angela Tuck, Urinal Ombudsman

Yeah, like a queer little rat “dog” humping some poor bas-tard’s leg, all the rest of us are “watching” as they try to shake your nasty as-ses off.

“Altruistically, many of us got into this field because we take seriously that notion that we’ve got to be people’s eyes and ears,” said Nunzio M. Lupo, the AJC’s managing editor of news and information.-Urinal/DNC

It’s funny how “my eyes” keep showing me pictures of libs with their heads buried so far up Obambi’s as-s they have to look out of his mouth to tell us much they adore him.

Mike Buffington had heard the rumblings you often hear about someone who has held public office for a long time. Then came a specific tip about former Piedmont Judicial Circuit District Attorney Tim Madison and his secret bank accounts.-Urinal/PMS

Gee, just let me guess, Madison being a Republican?

Opposition research and mud slinging on behalf of the dimwitocrat party does not “investigative journalist” make, it is does, however, make you a toady and a sycophant.

~~~~~

I missed this yesterday:

After test-firing missiles earlier this summer that could strike European or Israeli cities, Iran signaled on Thursday that it would no longer cooperate with United Nations inspectors looking into Tehran’s alleged nuclear weapons ambitions.-Urinal/PMS

And no kidding, they published the same fake picture that the Iranian Propaganda Ministry photo shopped showing 4 missiles where there was only one.

Do the libs even care anymore about their credibility?

~~~~~

A written prayer that Barack Obama left this week in the cracks of the Western Wall, Judaism’s holiest site, asks God to guide him and guard his family, an Israeli newspaper reported Friday.

“Lord— Protect my family and me,” reads the note published in the Maariv daily.

Aahhh, yes, Lord High Dimwit thinking only of himself, no thanks, no prayers for the needy, nope, it’s like “Yo, watch my back, would ya?”

~~~~~

ZDF began its special “Obama in Berlin” coverage [German video] at 6:45 p.m. Central European Time: only 15 minutes before the candidate’s speech was scheduled to start. At the time, ZDF reporter Susanne Gelhard was out and about on the so-called “Fan Mile” between the Victory Column and the Brandenburg Gate. “The expectations were highly varied,” she said in her live report, “from a few thousand up to a million. Those were the estimates. But, now, several tens of thousands have turned out.” Barely five minutes before the speech was supposed to start, ZDF Berlin studio chief Peter Frey added, “We do estimate that 20,000 [literally, “a couple of ten thousand”] people have turned out.”

20,000 people? That’s it? Even with the free concert?

Notice how there have been no overhead or wide frame pictures of the crowd shown in the pinko media?

Everything about this dimwit is a lie.

~~~~~

Obama couldn’t have had a luckier political career, and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s perfectly timed endorsement of Obama’s 16-month withdrawal plan is earning the junior senator from Illinois all manner of plaudits. Put aside the fact that the commentators now extolling Maliki as the “sovereign leader of Iraq” were, just two weeks ago, disparaging him as an American or Iranian puppet (depending on the day). The fact is that Maliki would not be able to even raise the possibility of American troop withdrawal had it not been for last year’s troop surge, a measure that John McCain championed and Obama — following the Democratic herd — opposed.

To admit that his judgment was wanting on the subject of the surge would irreparably damage — if not kill — the Democratic narrative of the war. Admitting he was mistaken on something is a bridge too far for the supposedly post-partisan Obama to cross. Choosing a president this November, voters would do well to remember which candidate — during America’s darkest days in Iraq — called for retreat and which one presciently counseled a strategy for victory.

James Kirchick is an assistant editor of The New Republic.

~~~~~

The odd thing is that Obama doesn’t really think this way. When he gets down to specific cases, he can be hard-headed. Last year, he spoke about his affinity for Reinhold Niebuhr, and their shared awareness that history is tragic and ironic and every political choice is tainted in some way.

But he has grown accustomed to putting on this sort of saccharine show for the rock concert masses, and in Berlin his act jumped the shark. His words drift far from reality, and not only when talking about the Senate Banking Committee. His Berlin Victory Column treacle would have made Niebuhr sick to his stomach.

Obama has benefited from a week of good images. But substantively, optimism without reality isn’t eloquence. It’s just Disney.-David Brooks, Treason Times.

There is no courage in making up problems and then go about promoting yourself as a hero for fixing those fake problems.

And what of the mass of dimwits that believe in your fake problem?

There is no end to this wonderland grandiosity, you can say that anything is broken when you are lying through your teeth and then waste everybody’s time and efforts applying your ignorance to things that do not even exist.

But yet all the candy as-sed libs natter on about history being made, blah, blah, blah, slobber, slobber. And since they are his campaign staff, along with being a “news” agency, they have got their work cut out for them big time. They do not need these blogs running messages counter to what they are propagandizing, so like any socialist worth a lick, they clamp down on free speech.

Perhaps Obama needs a remedial course in Cold War history, but the Berlin Wall most certainly did not come down because “the world stood as one.” The wall fell because of a decades-long, existential struggle against one of the greatest totalitarian ideologies mankind has ever faced. It was a struggle in which strong and determined U.S. leadership was constantly questioned, both in Europe and by substantial segments of the senator’s own Democratic Party. In Germany in the later years of the Cold War, Ostpolitik — “eastern politics,” a policy of rapprochement rather than resistance — continuously risked a split in the Western alliance and might have allowed communism to survive. The U.S. president who made the final successful assault on communism, Ronald Reagan, was derided by many in Europe as not very bright, too unilateralist and too provocative.

Taking the credit for Reagan’s hard work and courage, work that Lord High Dimwit would have voted against, hahaha.

Tearing down the Berlin Wall was possible because one side — our side — defeated the other. Differences in levels of economic development, or the treatment of racial, immigration or religious questions, are not susceptible to the same analysis or solution. Even more basically, challenges to our very civilization, as the Cold War surely was, are not overcome by naively “tearing down walls” with our adversaries.

As I was saying:

Anyone who wants to understand Barack Obama would do well to stay away from the radio and the TV. Obama is a theatrical presence. That’s what it means to be “charismatic”: To an unnerving degree his appeal relies on sight and sound rather than sense. Better, in my opinion, to stick to the printed word. On paper (or the computer screen) his words can be thought about and chewed over. You can understand him at your own pace, undistracted by that rich baritone, the regal bearing, the excellent drape of his Burberry suits.

The printed word has its problems too, of course. You really need to be on your toes if you’re going to get anything out of a newspaper’s election coverage. You’ve got to tune your ear to euphemism and translate as you go. So last Friday, having missed the television broadcasts of Obama’s speech in Berlin the day before, I read the Washington Post with a cocked ear, and when I saw that the speech was described as “broadly thematic” and “sober and serious” I knew exactly what it meant: a boring speech full of blah blah blah.

The ANWR ban is the work of environmental restriction groups that depend on direct-mail fundraising to pay their bills and keep their jobs. That means they must always claim the sky is falling.

Democratic leaders are preventing Congress from voting on continental shelf and ANWR drilling or oil shale development because they fear their side would lose and are making the transparently absurd claim that drilling won’t lower the price of oil. They’re scampering to say that they would allow drilling somewhere — mostly in places where the oil companies haven’t found any oil.

Christopher Monckton, who once advised Margaret Thatcher, demonstrates via 30 equations that computer models used by the UN’s climate panel (IPCC) were pre-programmed with overstated values for the three variables whose product is “climate sensitivity” (temperature increase in response to greenhouse-gas increase), resulting in a 500-2000% overstatement of CO2’s effect on temperature in the IPCC’s latest climate assessment report, published in 2007.

Here’s something the wretched diseases on the left don’t want to think about:

“What will happen if, on election night in November, John McCain wins the presidency? Will it necessarily be determined that Obama’s defeat is the result of a conspiracy? A fraud? Or something worse?”

Much has been said and written in recent months about the historical and cultural significance of the Obama nomination, and the would-be Obama presidency. Obama, himself, seems to place no limits on his own historical and cultural significance. At age 46, he has already authored two books - - both are about himself - - and the securing of his party’s nomination marked, according to him, the moment when our nation began to “heal..”

“But what if Obama’s seemingly inevitable destiny - - that of “change agent President” - - was abruptly cut short? I’m not hinting here at the possibility of an assassin’s bullet (I’ll leave it to Hillary Clinton to suggest such things). I’m merely stating the obvious. The first Black American to secure the presidential nomination of a major political party could end up losing the election. If that were to happen, then what would the historical and cultural significance of that event be?”

[Uhm, I’d say “racism” would come into play as the culprit somewhere amongst the diseased left - forget the rejection of modern liberal neo-Marxism.]

Obamania the Centrist! Yeah, and nasty wretched diseased liberals here say that America is “liberal” and always has been “liberal.”

Ain’t it funny how their media-selected inexperienced dumbo-eared Dimocrat candidate has to shift center and even put his feet into traditionally Conservative waters to attempt to win an election?

Throughout the left-wing blogosphere, the cry has come: Barack Obama is moving away from them, and to the center. “Moving to the middle is for losers,” cried the politically ambidextrous Arianna Huffington. He’s “betraying his claims of being a new kind of politician,” declared Markos Moulitsas of Daily Kos. But all this outrage ignores the obvious: Throughout his career, Obama has consistently framed himself as a post-partisan centrist. He’s been a bridge-builder all his life, first between black and white, and now between left and right.

Gonna be funny watching these nasty sick-in-the-head miserable liberals eat themselves up if Obama loses. Actually, it’s currently funny just watching the diseased liberals get pis-sed off that Obamania isn’t acting liberal enough…

There is something to be said about unions here. Unions are a traditional Dimocrat stronghold. Even though this is in Canada, you can bet that Obamania would support these gestapo tactics here if he could. Just imagine this: it snows and you decide to clear the front of your store. However, a new federal regulation drawn up by Dimocrats and signed by Obamania says you can’t because it’s union domain and only a union representative can do that. Think I’m kidding? Look at what happened in Canada.

And people wonder why US corporations are moving headquarters overseas because of high taxes and other issues. Obamania did say he was going to raise taxes on both those evil “rich” and companies and corporations.

Just think, these mindless numbnuts and their lapdog liberal media will be screaming for joy with a 10% (plus) unemployment rate and a Dow that drops below 10k. But hey let’s rejoice for the good times, Obamania is our president and the evil rich and profiteering corporations who all make their money off the backs of the poor are history!

“WILLIE GEIST: David, shouldn’t Barack Obama just come out and concede that the surge has worked, but here’s where we go from here?”

“ABC’s DAVID SHUSTER: You know, I suppose he could, but the bottom line is that Americans don’t care. I mean, when 60% of Americans say the war should not have been fought to begin with, it’s sort of like saying, you know what, you know that last-place baseball game the other night? Maybe the Giants should have pitched the fellow — you know, people don’t care. If they don’t believe the war should have been fought, then what’s happening right now, whether the surge is successful or not, is really sort of secondary. Americans still don’t want us —”

State adds jobs even in slump- Unemployment is rising and companies are laying off workers, but one bright spot for job seekers in Georgia has been government work.- Doom and Gloom/DNC

Bright spot? Since when is helping one person while harming 100,000 supposed to be a good thing?

Maybe you libs don’t understand, the beauty of capitalism is that it creates economic activity, mainly through the effects of supply and demand, and with it, jobs and wealth.

Government exists to act as a parasite on the capitalist system, it makes it’s money from the same place you do, not by hard work and effort though, but by making demands of capitalism, forcing it to pay money that it receives very few benefits in return for.

And the larger that government gets, the more money it needs.

Only in the land of the pinko socialist will you see people getting excited when government grows but then they turn right around and whine and moan about the deficit, blah, blah, blah..

It’s so……….Disney.

~~~~~

Having suffered a catastrophic and stinging defeat in Iraq, thee Gloom and Doom goes in search of something, anything that they can whine about to make Afghanistan their new “quagmire:”

NATO forces on Saturday fired on a vehicle that wouldn’t stop at a checkpoint in Helmand province in Afghanistan’s volatile south, killing four civilians and wounding three others.-AJC/PMS

NATO meaning that no American troops were involved that the AJC could stab in the back, but hey, at least you could imply they were, right Urinal?

~~~~~

At least 29 people were killed and 88 wounded Saturday as 16 small explosions hit the western Indian city of Ahmadabad, a day after seven similar blasts struck Bangalore, India’s high-tech hub, killing two people and wounding at least five. On Saturday, police found and defused an eighth bomb near a popular shopping mall in Bangalore.-Urinal/DNC

A minor detail thee Urinal chose to leave out:

A group calling itself the Indian Mujahedeen claimed responsibility for the attack.

Now if we can only blame this on America, huh AJC, I’ll bet you’re just itching too.

And boy, didn’t Lord High Dimwit’s Blather in Berlin sure convince these Islamic extremists that we should stand together as “one world.”

Call me old fashioned, but it appears to me that these terrorists want one world without us in it.

~~~~~

Another of the many things these socialist POS will do to control your lives, if you let them:

America, is 55 mph such a scary idea?- The question is, have we become such a bloated, because-I-want-it-that’s-why, Rush Limbaugh-happy nation we won’t consider these kinds of possibilities?- Urinal/PMS

What a great argument, eh?

Look, maggot, if you want to drive 55 so that you can save gas, MERGE TO THE RIGHT AND DRIVE 55, YOU MORON.

It’s like Duh.

It isn’t even about saving gas or lives, these POS are trying to satisfy their primitive, mindless urge to nanny over the lives of other people, stuck in their stupid, pointless, empty moron lives looking for some meaning, idiots.

~~~~~

This conservative says if you need bedcovers in the summer or don’t need four blankets in the winter, you are wasting energy. And where is the outrage about the cool summer temperatures in movies, churches and stores?- Urinal/PMS Vent

You mean “this environmental terrorist” don’t you?

~~~~~

You wormy little liberals want to blame a bunch of BS on the heartless banking industry, I got something for you:

In 1987 the IRS imposed a $284,718 lien on the Councils’ property and assets. Alex Council had borrowed money to finance his construction business, but the IRS lien destroyed his credit. After Council’s business collapsed, he committed suicide.

You want to start this sh!t, the IRS has killed far more people than the mortgage industry has.

Why do you never whine about that?

The day after the Junior Senator from Illinois embarked upon his global victory tour, an NBC/Wall St. Jounal poll had him up by 17 points. Most polls had him up by 7 — a striking 10-point deviation. Now he’s back, and the aforementioned Rassmussen organization has him up by a mere four, give or take. (The taller they are, the harder they fall indeed.)

Now, how to account for this stunning loss of popularity? Was it the widely-broadcast sight of the junior diplomat, bounding down the gangway onto sovereign Iraqi soil energetically masticating a wad of chewing gum, mouth open? Was it perhaps the still more widely-broadcast sight of the junior diplomat, as he is formally welcomed into the hospitality of the Prime Minister, presuming to offer the Premier a seat in his own home?

Or was it the One World speech, delivered before organized anti-war groups offered free beer and music on a lovely day, so that the junior diplomat could plagiarize Bono’s “this is our moment, this is our time speech”?

Speaking of mindless hysteria, we are two months through the 2008 hurricane season. We’ve had just one hurricane hit the US coastline, and it was a Cat 1, bordering on Cat II. No, it was no Katrina.

Now, to refresh some memories, after Katrina in 2005, the mindless Aglorebots crawled out from under their rocks and used that storm as an excuse to blame mankind and that junkassed science of man-induced global warming on increased hurricane strength and activity.

2006 was forecast to be a “very active” storm season. We didn’t have a single hurricane hit the US coast that year.

2007 was forecast to be a “very active” storm season. We didn’t have a single hurricane hit the US coast that year either.

2008 was forecast to be a “very active” storm season. We’ve had one so far.

Dunno about you, but I don’t consider that record of hysteria very credible. Further and more to the point, I don’t think we need to ruin our economy and have a bunch of liberal nanny fascists telling us how we should live (get rid of cows, no meat, ditch gas-powered anything, ride a bike to work, blah blah blah) based upon a “science” that can’t even accurately forecast hurricane seasons.

The self-assurance, the commanding confidence of his campaign may turn out to be a transcending dynamic that rockets him into the White House while Mr. McCain is still trying to find a reporter to talk with. On the other hand, he may be signalling millions of voters that this untested candidate is just a damn sight too cocky for his own, and their, good.

Uh, uh, uh, uh, you think?

But not once in his Berlin speech did Obama acknowledge Truman’s fortitude, or even mention his name. Nor did he mention the US Air Force, or the 31 American pilots who died during the airlift.

Maybe he doesn’t know?

Indeed, Obama seemed to go out of his way not to say plainly that what saved Berlin in that dark time was America’s military might. Save for a solitary reference to “the first American plane,” he never described one of the greatest American operations of the postwar period as an American operation at all. He spoke only of “the airlift,” “the planes,” “those pilots.” Perhaps their American identity wasn’t something he cared to stress amid all his “people of the world” salutations and talk of “global citizenship.”

Obama’s speech was a paean to international cooperation. “Now is the time to join together,” he said. “It was this spirit that led airlift planes to appear in the sky above our heads.” No - it was a Democratic president named Truman, who had the audacity to order an airlift when others counseled retreat, and the grit to see it through when others were ready to withdraw.

Lord High Dimwit would have voted against the airlift.

Hey, maybe I spoke too soon. Maybe the liberal mainslime media© is starting to get it on that phony Obamania. Get ‘em girl…

NBC’s Andrea Mitchell was the one journalist with the courage to name what she was actually seeing happen: Obama faking even being interviewed by the press. “Let me say something about the message management. He didn’t have reporters with him, he didn’t have a press pool, he didn’t do a press conference either in Afghanistan or Iraq”, noted Mitchell on the air. Instead Obama manufactured “what some would call ‘fake interviews,’ because they are not interviews from a journalist,” Mitchell went on.

Flashback: liberal hysterics wailed like the stuck pigs they are when the Bush administration allegedly “faked” an interview. Do we have the same microscopic micromanagement of every move by Obamania by the liberal mainslime media©? Oh hell no.

John McCain is an honorable man who is running an increasingly dishonorable campaign. Senator McCain knows full well that Senator Obama strongly supports and honors our troops, which is what makes this attack so disingenuous. Senator Obama was honored to meet with our men and women in uniform in Iraq and Afghanistan this week and has visited wounded soldiers at Walter Reed numerous times. This politicization of our soldiers is exactly what Senator Obama sought to avoid, and it’s not worthy of Senator McCain or the ‘civil’ campaign he claimed he would run.
