Take a break from your day to day struggle with the lions, tigers and bears of climate change. You will be amused and amazed by the wide array of tricks and scams demonstrated by our incomparable teams of NGO scam and flim-flam artists who will also share their secrets on how to pick the "Rich man's pockets" so that you too can "finance your great walls against rising seas, or switch to drought-resistant crops," (non-genetically modified of course.)

UN in Lebanon not going out on patrol at night. Too dangerous.
ReplyDeleteIf I were a partisan, and looking at the diverse Democratic members of Congress, I would say they are in deep shit. Talk about a herd of cats. I can hardly wait to see the new Iraq strategy. And if I were a platoon leader in Iraq well......let's just say no John Wayne moves.
ReplyDeleteYou got that platoon leader comment right--yowza!
ReplyDelete"Boys, the message from the voting booth is--keep your head down and count the days!"
ReplyDeleteAlmost a relief, in a way, to fall back to defensible lines.
Oil, schmoil, economics. fooey. Build carriers and SSBNs, and punish evildoers from the high seas.
RoadtoSerfdom,
ReplyDeleteX-cel-ent additions and in the spirit of the EB.
We should spend the next two years perfecting ridicule and parody of the Dems..there's no defense for it and if they get all huffy, the entire world will know they can't take a joke..which in my experience always makes you a pariah.
Whit,
ReplyDeleteSupreme and ultimate huzzahs for this thread.
I just mentioned to RoadTS that ridicule and parody are great tools. You are a craftsman and I salute you. Please keep it up and we'll drive the Dems into parody world monkeys. Bravo maestro.
Nice try, habu, but them apparatchiks don't never mind no atmospherics--everything is literal. They don't care who knows they an asshole.
ReplyDeleteRight on Buddy...there's that scene in the series Band of Brothers where the troops are suppose to cross a river for the second straight night to capture Huns for interrogation. Dick Winters, knowing his men will be pulled out of the line the next day does the right thing for his men and tells them to get a good nights sleep...and in the morning the report will reflect a mission that failed to capture any Huns...that's where I'd be with my Marines..heads down, lets get home and safe. Like you said, NO John Waynes. Let the Iraqi's pull their wagon now, we'll call in our part.
ReplyDeletehell, they shot the Czar's little kids in the face, at close range, with pistols.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the movie, habu. Dick Winters did the right thing.
ReplyDeleteWell maybe we can get a laugh out of it..screw them..they just think were Orwellian "proles"
ReplyDeleteThe lamented election is over. The carnaval of buncombe is about to begin.
Let's have fun until it's time to lock and load.
Yep, winters wasn't gonna let that bird colonel use his men for a good fitness report
ReplyDeletehey, whit--that comment you axed about is about ten or 12 down from the top of the "The Speaker Speaks" (or something like that) over on BC.
ReplyDeleteLOL, habu--carnival 'til the lock & load--I've heard worse advice--
RoadtoSerfdom,
ReplyDeleteYou know it's kinda surprising that no entrepreneur didn't do one of those car flags, blue with a white glob stain on it. I'll bet it woulda made money, or an inside blue sign with white glob saying Bill's DNA on board!
whit, what I was talking about is, that's one of the reasons I sooo hate JFnKerry. He led the way when the Dem primaries season began, with an attack on the war--and it became from that point a downhill snowball.
ReplyDeleteDespite the public agreement with the immediate-post-911 sensibility that we may be in for a generation-long war against this enemy.
The Dems wanted office so bad they sold our birthright for pottage.
They learned that they can do anything they like, majority or not, so long as, like Kerry, nothing means anything past the moment.
Want the public to forget the situation we are in? Just make enough distraction, and it will. See Nov 7.
Whit,
ReplyDeleteI give up. Who linked?
I watched from inside the CIA as the Democratic Congress ceased funding the South Vietnamese.
ReplyDeleteI watched from inside the CIA the troops withdrawn.
I watched from Saigon the NVA approaching daily and watched the panic develope. I watched in Saigon as the USA left 6-10 thousand loyal South Vietnamese we had promised to get out. They had worked in our Embassy and in the field with our intel, and we abandon them..abandon them..
Thank God we don't have that kind of commitment from the Iraqi's. But we also have no need to stay and watch our men and women get fucked up because the ME is one big cluster fuck.
Hit Syria and Iran by sea and air but no more wasted lives in a war the Democrats are not going to see through..we don't need another black wall in DC ... been through that horror...admit we're a weak horse now jockeyed by a socialist party and get out.
Winds of Change?
ReplyDeleteKenya News
ReplyDeleteNow that he has admitted that plans for Rumsfeld's replacement were on-going before the election when he (Bush) said that Rummy would remain in place.
ReplyDeleteSmall potatoes. I got a bigger kick out of the other one he told, "We've never been 'Stay the Course' George." when it was just his campaign slogan for 2004.

ReplyDeleteIn 1982, Reagan had a loaded Congress against him. He could not get a budget passed and had to rely on continuing resolutions. That was not enough for the Democrats. One scumbag Congressman attached the Boland amendment. Wikipedia misrepresents it at having been passed 411-0. They do not mention, that if the Amendment and continuing resolution was not passed the government would be closed down. Congressman Edward Boland, D, Mass., attached the amendment with no thought about the irregular troops in the field fighting the Sandinistas and the consequences to them with the cut-off of funds. In short they would have been slaughtered. Reagan should have told the Democrat controlled Congress to go fuck themselves and see you in Court or hell. Reagan folded and did some gymnastics getting the Japanese and Saudis to fund the Contras through the CIA. I helped unload planes of wounded with injuries that smelled like yesterday's dead dog, while on a farm In Costa Rica, owned be an American hero, John Hull. Hull was maligned by another Democratic piece of shit, John Kerry. Do a Google on John Hull, CIA drugs and you will read lie after lie after lie. If John Hull was a drug dealer, he was the worst on record. He never had any money. He still owes me $500, he borrowed to buy fuel for his plane to get more wounded from Nicaragua. Expect nothing noble from Republicans and worse from Democrat Politicians. I hate all of them.
ReplyDelete2164,
ReplyDeleteI remember Mr. Hulls contributions even though I was getting my intel at that time through old buddies. He did a great job.
I had a real hate on for Jim Wright and the Dear Commandante letter writers, some of whom are about to ascend to power positions.
The Democrats have worked for the last 45 years to subvert this country. I'd love to smack one around just for old times sake.
Yes teresita I'm a violent man.
This post alludes to some kicked-cans that are creeping up on us, only now they are millions more than when we kicked it down the road before.
ReplyDeleteI'm honestly not sure if its unChristian but frivolous charity on national scales seem to encourage people to have lots of kids and that's about it. Just enough wealth re-distributed such that sufficient sustenance exists for more children. More children that will need the NGOs all the more.
What will all those "enraged" and "disillusioned" young men do with themselves, after all the women are felled by HIV, owned by militias, murdered by muslims or egressing on their own fortunate accord?
Whatever they end up doing, its probably best if alot of them die, if only to not make more of them. Guess I find myself treating foreign life in a way different than I'd have people treat the lives of the poor in my own society. I mean to allude to a convergence in how life is valued between myself and abortionists. But I like to think the big difference is a critical administrative point: my resources for my policies. And I would support poor American kids that have a chance, but I won't support poor barbarians who are just savages, and need our well-educated poets to conjur them into something "noble."
I guess I really just want alot of the world to die, and it would, if only we'd stop sustaining them.
I can't stop thinking of Travis Bickle and the NYC of his era. Some folks see that kind of social material and fancy "shrinking it" with $100 laptops. I can't help but think that we can shrink it, by shrinking the number of people living there. They gotta learn that the plow is more valuable than the AK47. The NGOs help in inverting this valuable calculation.
Is the only solution for my own security some PTA/Blackwater in the suburbs that gun down marauders with robots at the outskirts of a literally "gated" communtiy?
Rufus,
ReplyDeleteI still have special pixel powers enabling me to pixel you into the clandestine world.
When you awake in the morning you will be operative "Still" working on project "Senior Nectar"
hey, I"M "Jim Smith"--dammit.
ReplyDeleteppab, great dark post. yes.
Mr Rufus,
ReplyDeleteAre you denying under oath that you have no knowledge of this Ukranian nurse?
Nurse
Are you sure?

With all due respect to your service to the wounded, 2164th, if Clinton used the NSA to channel federal funds to the Taliban in the 1990s by saying, "It depends on what your definition of intelligent agency is" the GOP-controlled Congress would have gone ballistic.
Dang, am I the only one on this blog who Never worked for the Company?
ReplyDeleteThe first rule of the Company is, you don't talk about the Company.
Ms T,
ReplyDeleteThat's why all the former spooks are all over TV right?
That use to be the code..the Company was absolutely ruined by Stansfield Turner and Jimma Carter. The Company as such evaporated overnight and it became every man for himself. I was there and I mouthed an awful lot about it. It got me in trouble but with those two in charge it became way too dangerous to get hung out. Ask any old hand from the OSS days to the 1950's through the 1970's about the Company then and after Carter took over..two totally different places.
I'm cut'n and runn'n for bed..nite all ...rest peacefully

ReplyDeleteBy the way, my real name is Jim, "Jim Smith," and I really, really love the CIA - and all other Spook-type guys, Really.
Rufus, don't buy into this "I was inside the CIA" stuff. Blah blah blah. There really are Feds on the blogs out here, but they don't say much because they signed a SF-312
rufus @ 10:34--yes, yes, yes. Just one of the myriad critical issues that were at stake. That's why I will never ever understand what happened. Lack of info, I suppose.
ReplyDeleteAnother of Wretchard’s inaccuracies.
ReplyDelete“Here it [1st Marine Division] became heavily engaged with the Chinese Communists in the bitter fighting around the Chosin Reservoir. Despite being completely surrounded, the Division broke the encirclement and fought its way to Hungnam with all its men and equipment, destroying ten Chinese Divisions in the process.”
HISTORY OF THE FIRST MARINE DIVISION
“The First Marines were nearly encircled at Chosin.”
___Wretchard
The Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth
Colonel “Chesty” Puller’s 1st Marines held the single exit out of Chosin and was essential to the evacuation of the UN forces, including most notably the 1st Marine Division. Note, contrary to Wretchard’s rendition, the 1st Marine Division was “completely” surrounded.
Map
Reporter; "Colonel, you've got Chinese to your front, to your rear, to your left and to your right. What are you going to do now?"
Col. Puller; "Damn sight better than the U. S. Army. At least I know they'll be there in the morning!"
Hey, Marines, in 8 minutes, here in the East, it will be the Corps’ birthday. Semper Fi!!!
rufus,
ReplyDeletere: Hell, they're writing "best-sellers" containing classified information about ongoing operations.
;-D
was = were
ReplyDeleteFor the uninitiated, when one speaks of the 1st, 6th, 9th Marines, etc. this references a regiment, not a division.
The 1st of the 1st was born on the Battleship Texas--I have stood on her decks, she is moored just outside Houston, near the grounds of the Battle of San Jacinto, where Santa Anna was captured, and Texas was born.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Marines--and thank God for ye!
