I won’t believe Charles Johnson has gone completely off the rails until I see an animated GIF illustrating it.
So, to liberals, the only winnable wars are those we aren’t focusing on. When we focus on them, then they’re Vietnam again.
Lesson learned: Liberals are completely unserious when it comes to war; never ever listen to them.
The reason Obama is bumping the Charlie Brown Christmas special is to head off Linus from publicly starting a Tea Party.
So we’re all agreed that the defining song of this decade is “Poker Face”?
If you think the press is bad for Tiger Woods, realize that God is recording everything you do and will use it against you.
Note for anyone following me: I did an open sarcasm tag 15 years ago and still haven’t closed it.
I don’t think Obama is going to convince me his heart is in the war unless he strangles a member of the Taliban on stage.
Note to Coors: In an ad about your history, it would be less distracting to refer to your founder as “Mr. Coors” than “Adolph Coors.”
Mass genocide really ruins a name for everybody. I don’t when was the last time I saw a kid named “Pol Pot”.
Today is the day I finally check to see what Wikipedia has to say about ninjas.
At least now that we see Obama’s elaborate plan we know why it took so long.
Liberals only know what they are told, so this should work great. Were never going to get liberals on board with the talk about clash of civilizations, evil enemies, and American freedom and safety. Liberals only see poor brown people opposing rich white powerful America. That’s all they see. So we have to help them see things they think are icky before they’ll decide not to be friends with them anymore. Maybe we could try recruiting the liberals against terrorists but speak in their language. We could talk about the:
-carbons released from suicide bombings.
-that many terrorists are in fact light skinned enough to be nearly white.
-Terrorists are rumored to watch fox news
-CIA funded, armed, and trained many terrorists like Osama to win the cold war
-The carbon released during the nuking of Israel
-Arabs love drilling for oil
-many terrorists have said mean things about “teh won”
-terrorists hate rainbows and don’t believe in unicorns
-terrorists oppose socialized health care.
-terrorists eat meat
-terrorists have many of the earth viruses known as human children
Terrorists don’t mass-murder peasant farmers then write narcissistic books about overthrowing their middle-class parents or make good face T-shirts. Terrorists are a bad fit for liberals to idolize and we need to exploit that.
Y’know, the only thing that really bugged me in last night’s speech was how he kept making up countries. It would have worked better if the names were realistic. I mean, come on. Who’s going to believe there’s such a place called Pocky Stonn?
Not so random thought: Get ready for the coldest December in the western US in 40 years.
This IS Vietnam all over again! We go and pretty much kick everybody’s ass and the congress surrenders. Deja Vu!
If teh won isn’t gonna’ use the military I’d like to borrow them for the upcoming Tea Party!
Speaking of Charlie Brown, I’m pretty sure the Van Pelts’ religious affiliation is First Reformed. (I grew up adjacent to Dutch country in NW Iowa)
Jimmy, that’s just your imagination!
What if a future Court tries Oblather for war crimes?
Will the Peace Prize be his best defense? OR – but Bush did it?
As a way of preventive medicine, his advisors are already further restricting the rules of engagement:
1) Must be fired upon first,
2) Must then respond by bowing to the waist while apologizing,
3) If “2” isn’t sufficient, challenge to a debate (Acorn to tally judges’ votes),
4) If “3” isn’t sufficient, offer invitation to next WH gala,
5) If “4” isn’t sufficient, offer 10X carbon trading credits
6) If “5” isn’t sufficient, refer to Robert Gibbs.
I’ve never heard Charles Johnson, but I imagine he sounds like a Dalek from Dr. Who. “That poster disagrees with me. Delete! Delete!”
Speaking of naming children poorly, in a few years can you see some sad little first grader, first day in class, standing up and giving his name? “I’m Barack.” The child will live a life of picked-on hell.
The only winnable wars are the ones we aren’t focused on? General Magoo reporting for duty sir!
Storm, just a minor correction: The Daleks screamed, “EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!”. It was the Cybermen that Chanted, “Delete! Deleted!”. That is all.
Is it just me or does the word barack sound like a hairball comming up?
present hussein chose West Point to give his speech, cause the future Marines in Annapolis would have played pin the tail on the jackass. The great soldiers in the Army are a bit more restrained.
So present hussein is given the peace prize, then sends thousands to kick the snot out of rags. Smell that? Its hypocracy. Or maybe global warming.
That would be a flying pig animated GIF.
Good for President O as far as it went; like Mrs. Palin, I support his decision conditionally (and she defined those conditions very well).
On Afghanistan:
1. Nobody in their right mind would use the “V” word there because what that involves is eliminating the drug operations, though only places like Strategy Page even acknowledge the drug trade there in the first place. It’s funding the Taliban as well as screwing up lives worldwide. With that much money at stake globally, though, wiping it out isn’t gonna be easy or popular among many powerbrokers…which is why I think America should publicize it a lot, to force people who are okay with the drug trade to come out in the open about their reasons instead of pretending they’re coming from the high moral ground (note: some principled people really are against us being there; I’m not talking about them). Only–if we did that, then NATO would probably self-destruct.
Oops.

Deep breath.
2. War and drugs: that’s the two mainstays of the whole 1960s/Vietnam era, quietly being knocked out from under the house that hippies built. Heh. “What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them, that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long, no longer apply.” The same man who said that this past January also said then, ‘And for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that, “Our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken. You cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.'” Tuesday night, maybe, he showed that he meant it. Hope so.
I kind of thought that Paul Potts opera guy was really pushing the limit, despotic-name-wise.
I’m afraid Linus and Charlie Brown submitted to Islam: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuPDm5fYFT8
If NATO’s held together by drug trade, I’m good with it going to pieces. Then we could have a real moral high ground, not the fake one our Left thinks it has or the doormat-posture version our Right uses, but an actual, “we’re clean” high ground to smack down the rest of the illegal drug trade and/or legalize what we want.
I would send the first random thought to LGF, but sadly my account has been blocked.
“Mass genocide really ruins a name for everybody. I don’t when was the last time I saw a kid named ‘Pol Pot’.”
I’d add that being an anti-American communist leader ruins a name as well. However, the name “Barack” was already a stupid name.
