Good grief. I saw Muammar Kadaffy-duck giving his speech at the U.N. today. What the heck was he wearing? It looked like something recycled from Janis Joplin.
Probably only people in my age group will get that one. (Velvet, ostrich feathers, fringe, the odd gold bauble.... you get the picture.)
Anyway, he didn't seem very lucid. 'Course neither did the Comrade. Apparently the Comrade doesn't care about nations like England, France, Germany, Israel... the US's traditional (since 1946) allies. He seems more like obsessed with getting kudos from piggish louts like Hugo Chavez and other marxists.
Doesn't that figure?
The Canadians walked out on Abracadabrajab before he even started speaking. Smart people. I understand the US delegation also walked out. Perhaps Canada shamed them.
Abracadabrajab really looks just scruffy, you know? Like, does he have a change of clothes, or what? He just loves that one jacket, doesn't he?
When I was a kid, I had little blanket my mom made with a rabbit embroidered on it. I still have it. But I don't wear it every day.
I'm not sure what's going on in Honduras, but I'm reasonably certain the US is taking the wrong side on that one. More pandering to Chavez? What the heck is that all about? Chavez is a fool. He's selling gasoline to Iran, enabling them to extend their atom bomb project. We can only hope Iran does their weapons testing in Venezuela.
A while back I noted that conspiracies usually don't work because they involve criminal types. They're not trustworthy, you know? Like, don't turn your back. They don't like you; they're just using you. When you're no longer useful, you're dead meat.
The Comrade seems to be willing to throw Israel under a bus. Or maybe he just doesn't have the guts to tell Iran where to stick it. Read a book a long time ago in school that was all about how the West in general was wobbling on its commitment to individual rights and human freedom. The author -- whose name I don't have in front of me -- called it "A failure of nerve."
That's true.
Also a long time ago, read a book called "The American Mind" by Commager or Steele or one of those guys, and in the frontispiece, he had a quote from someone that went like: "To be an American is frame of mind more than a geographic situation."
True. But the Comrade and his band of Central American marxist thugs seem determined to deny and denigrate what's called "American Exceptionalism." That is, America is an extraordinary nation. And it is, in many ways. That's not to say that the US has always come down on the right side of every issue; just means that we have an awful lot to live up to.
The Comrade seems to think American Exceptionalism is arrogance.... but somehow sucking up to brutal petty dictators, glorying in their praise.... somehow that's commendable in his book.
I don't know if the nation can survive three more years of this.
By the way, police in Kentucky found a census-taker hanging from a tree. I mean, the man was lynched, and he had "FED" written across his forehead or something.
Not a good idea to threaten to take away freedom from Americans. Just not a good idea, no matter how sanctimonious you are, how bitter your rage, how dead-set against prosperity and personal individual development and achievement.
Just don't mess with people who've always been free. We're possibly more committed to remaining free than we are to remaining civil.
That's not a threat. However, it's come to my attention over a rather checkered lifetime, that even those idiot kids transfixed by video games and obsessed with texting... even they get testy when you try to limit their options.
I could even provide a little history of Kentucky. A remarkably affable state, willing to trade and compromise, and often the peacemaker. Until they get riled.
If the Town Halls don't work -- and Baucus now is talking about jamming his piece-of-crap senate bill on socialized medicine through with a simple majority -- and the Senate is trying to put gag order on insurance companies that try to explain the inevitable consequences of socialized medicine -- if the Comrade continues to prance around like God's gift, "showing his ass" to the dregs of the world and embarrassing the nation...
Well, you end up with a dead census-taker in Kentucky. I don't really condone it. But I'm not a bit surprised.
