Mahmoud ducks.

An amazing story of tech success in Iraq. One of our favorite embeds plays a central role: Snake Eater takes on terrorists in Iraq.

Eastwood: Even wars we unequivocally win, and should win, are futile. Tell that to everyone who survived the Nazi death camps and who were liberated when our troops defeated Japan, Clint. Tell that to every country we kept out of Soviet hands during the Cold War and liberated by bringing down the USSR. Wars are terrible catastrophes, but if the right people win wars, some good can come out of them. The freedom and prosperity of the past half century for the free world, for instance (and just what made the free world free, Clint?). Why is it that artists like Eastwood who spend their lives exercising our freedoms consistently fail to appreciate how those freedoms are won and kept secure?

Meet John Edwards’ new spokesman in an exclusive interview. And the one he’s had for a little over two weeks now, all gussied up and ready for the big game.

Exit question: With Hillary! flip flopping around on the war and Obama meeting the nation by playing the race card in an ugly way, how are they both like Philadelphia Eagles QB Donovan McNabb?

Gee where have I heard all this before?

“I speak in the name of the entire German people when I assure the world that we all share the honest wish to eliminate the enmity that brings far more costs than any possible benefits… It would be a wonderful thing for all of humanity if both peoples would renounce force against each other forever. The German people are ready to make such a pledge.”
Adolf Hitler – 14th October 1933
“Germany has concluded a Non-Aggression Pact with Poland… We shall adhere to it unconditionally… we recognize Poland as the home of a great and nationally conscious people.”
Adolf Hitler – 21st May 1935
“I have no further interest in the Czecho-Slovakian State, that is guaranteed. We want no Czechs”…
Adolf Hitler – 26th September 1938

Oh sorry…..I forgot that that is all old news.

Deja Vu …

Isn’t it amazing that a knowledgeable, liberal, progressive women like this would cover her head the minute she enters the country, even when in her hotel room, and will cover her head in deference to a Muslim man when in his presence, and conduct an interview him when he clearly views her, as he views all women, with contempt.

…how are they both like Philadelphia Eagles QB Donovan McNabb?

Thus saith The Godfather…

“overrated … what we have here is a little social concern in the NFL (Washington-NY media elite). The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback (black or female Democrat senator) can do well—black coaches and black quarterbacks (black or female Democrat Presidential candidate) doing well. There’s a little hope invested in McNabb (Obama and Hillary), and he (they) got a lot of credit for the performance of his team (party)that he (they) didn’t deserve. The defense (Schumer and Emmanuel) carried this team.”

Kid from Brooklyn on February 12, 2007 at 10:57 AM

Kid, ya nailed it. Good catch on the “defense.”

We shy away from any kind of conflict and any kind of bloodshed, and we will be sad by such. We are opposed to any kind of conflict and as we have said repeatedly we think the world problem can be solved through dialogue, the use of logic and a sense of friendship. There is no need for the use of force.

Death to America!!!

The Snake Eater story is terrific. And I have to say, it’s a story of the American attitude towards problems at its best!

Wonder if those Challenge Coins (seejanemom) are avail on ebay?

E L Frederick (Sniper One) on February 12, 2007 at 11:13 AM

…Would it make me like, I dunno, anti Muslim? to wanna snatch that rag off’n her head, and yell at her?
or would I be more like a Muslim bein all intolerant of her wearing it?
I think its her pandering to this sleezeball more than her actually wearing it that just gets my goat the Dihmmi-tude just gets worse and worse…
Of course her real religion is getting that interview at all costs.
I wonder if she were a Christian (doubtful though but who am I to judge?)would she deny her savior for that one good interview?

Sorry Ya’ll its Monday morning buncha random thoughts and ah’m grumpy, did I mention its Monday? Echh!

WastelandMan on February 12, 2007 at 11:14 AM

Clint Eastwood makes a lot movies about war and many of his movies include rape scenes. So, I’d say war and rape has been very, very good for this crepe papered face “actor”.

bloggless on February 12, 2007 at 11:27 AM

Man, has Clint been overtaken by a severe case of wussitude in his old age or what?

thirteen28 on February 12, 2007 at 11:28 AM

Is it just me, or is Diane Sawyer HUGE compared to Mahmoud?

~~and incredibly HOTTTT~~

Kai on February 12, 2007 at 12:36 PM

Thanks for the linky love Bryan!!

I’m sure a quick call to Congressman Culberson (R,Texas) and they would turn you on to the supplier.

Speaking of the Goth worker program, Rove is saying his remarks last Friday were … (get ready for this):

taken out of context.

Riiiiiight.

If my beloved Republican party can sell its base down the ~~Rio Grande~~ river, then there are quite a few beds to be slept in, actually, no matter who they were made by.

I’d like to comment further jane, but my raft is coming up on some rapids now and I’d better hang on ;)

It’s always good to see the Autorantic Virtual Moonbat, and I’m glad to see that it’s moving on up in the world. (If you consider working for the Edwards campaign “moving on up”.) I swear, you could replace some of our trolls with that thing and never know the difference. AVM will definitely need all of its ranting skills to do damage control when Amanda F’ing Marcotte gets some Ritalout. (Do you think she likes Phil Collins now?)
