    "Who's With Me?"

    We should of been in Yemen all along. This has always been about Yemen. Yemen is, and always has been, the central front in the war on terror. Yemen. Say it.

    We also have a large boomer population approaching retirement that we need to get rid of...

    "Who's With Me?"

    The only real question is, can the US really win a war against Yemen?

    "Who's With Me?"

    Rough crowd?! Given this country's recent track record executing its wars and the social free-fall we're in domestically, this guy should be burned at the stake...or just laughed at until he resigns out of sheer embarrassment.

    Old cunt-face is at it again. God, I hope he runs in 2012. He funny.
  7. s'all good
  8. Stocks are up.
  9. I'm bullish on Yemen.
  10. Y'all ready for Yemen?
  11. It's my personal policy to leave bitching about the Dutch to the Dutch.
  12. The place is a junk show. I often fly standby. I get a "seat request card" not a boarding pass. The worker at the security gate checking passes against IDs was thoroughly confused by this. "Hey, you don't have a boarding pass". She was about 5 feet tall, did not have a mastery of English, and was harried and distracted. I didn't even finish my sentence explaining what the document was before she impatiently waved me through. It could've been a bus ticket for all she knew. The other TSA workers in the checkpoint were laughing it up amongst themselves, playing grabass, or watching while a wizened 90 year old Indian woman was being frisked. It's a joke.
  13. I'm going to organize a shit-in.
  14. WTF? So we get to face stricter security and surveillance measures in gates and on airplanes because the cretins they hired to do these jobs can't even apply the measures that already exist?
  15. linky Ha, if he had actually accomplished anything in Copenhagen, you people would be screaming bloody murder! Hopefully, if the Obama Administration has learned anything at all from their predictably ill-fated attempts at "bi-partisanship" during the health-care reform process, it's that since people like you can never be pleased, you're better off being ignored.
  16. Oh, and Cliton and the New Democrats went right along with the whole neoliberal package and played the changed political landscape that Reagan created. Much of Cliton's appeal to party leadership (and still is) his ability to mobilize swing hicks in Southern states. Sorry, the Democrats are just as much on the hook for the grab bag of cat shit we're left by free-market fundamentalism, the Walmart Morlocks, and toxic legacy we're leaving for the rest of Earth's species. Merry X-mas.
  17. I've always understood the Reagan Revolution to be the mobilization of the Christian Right as a voting bloc and coupling it with (classically) liberal economic policies. At the heart of that project (continuing today) were the goals of dismantling New Deal social programs and regulatory frameworks, a repudiation of Keynesian economics, and freeing American capital from any national responsibility while using American military might to police the world-system to benefit capitalism as a whole (while maintaining a privileged position for the US). Its funding secure from the corporatocracy, it focused on building a political base of support (from its victims, no less) by stirring up fear, racism, and reaction to the counter-culture. What part of this bloated, diseased cancer in the American body politic hasn't failed?

    Obama's Problem

    ...if you accept the premise that Obama really is a political progressive and not just another capitalist whore, that is.
  19. Which policy prescriptions to which issues, specifically? Take your time. I'd like to here KKK answer to this question...for once. "Aw, fuckit."
  20. Which policy prescriptions to which issues, specifically? Take your time. If you are expecting an answer beyond "lick sack", don't hold your breath. No, it's really just a joke these days to ask conservatives (or in this case faux-libertarians) to back up any of their criticisms with any substantial policy analysis or alternative. When American Business and the laissez-faire blank check they were handed has failed so spectacularly to "deliver the goods" to American citizens or to preserve any semblance of republican democracy, it's no surprise that their biggest proponents are capable of nothing more than slobbering, incoherent screeching, blind obfuscation, and "run out the clock" profiteering and politicking.

  23. Holy shit, nevermind...
  24. Do you have one of those for Bobby "Lahar" Jindal?
  25. Pee-Pee's analysis doesn't extend beyond the D or the R after someone's name.
