Betsey's Loyal Minion

Asshat apartment managers want him to stop:

"OMAHA, Neb. Every morning since 9/11, Donald Lamp has hung his American flag from his apartment balcony. Managers of his retirement community want it gone, citing policy on building appearances."

Piss off. Its the American Flag. Grow some fucking patriotism.

The case makes Lamp one of many Americans who, because of housing covenants (search), are discouraged from flying their flags this Memorial Day (search) weekend."

Just one more reason to avoid covenants.

"I'm not about to take it down," the 89-year-old World War II veteran said.

As well you shouldn't, Mr. Lamp. You fought for this country and this flag, and I will be damned if I am going to deny or support anyone who denys your right to hang it every day.

Drudgery: Pope Worries About 'Soulless' U.S. Life

VATICAN CITY - Pope John Paul (news - web sites) II warned several U.S. bishops Friday that American society is in danger of turning against spirituality in favor of materialistic desires, giving way to a "soulless vision of life."

"Taking up this challenge, however, will require a realistic and comprehensive reading of the 'signs of the times,' in order to develop a persuasive presentation of the Catholic faith and prepare young people especially to dialogue with their contemporaries about the Christian message and its relevance to the building of a more just, humane and peaceful world."

May I suggest Buddy Christ, from Dogma?

Kerry pledges to build bridges, battle terrorism

But I just couldnt let this one pass.

In Seattle yesterday, Sen. John Kerry began to build a new national-security platform by saying the Bush administration's use of "force before exhausting diplomacy" in Iraq has "undermined the legacy of generations of American leadership."

Damn you have a short memory. Your little beloved "global village" commune tried for years to get SoDamned Insane to stop with the WMD's and terrorism, as well as all the human rights atrocities and mass murders. Their efforts went almost unnoticed, because the Ultimate Nincompoops United Nations is a gutless, castrated organization with all the power of dryer lint, and a matching IQ to boot.

"But the presumed Democratic presidential nominee also had a message for terrorists the government says may attack to try to influence this fall's presidential election.

Well duh. I don't know why you would want to change that, as they want you to win. Hell, I thought you would be helping them on the side. Your buddy, the Hero of Chappaquidick Edward "Err, aahh, Officer, how did this, err...aahhh... water get into my Scotch?" Kennedy certainly is helping with his tirades about the war. A more deserving candidate for having his face wraped in Duct Tape (save for an airhole, I dont want to be charged with conspiracy for murder) I haven't seen...

...The challenge for Kerry as he begins an 11-day focus on national security: to critique what he sees as Bush's itchy-trigger-finger foreign policy while trying to show he has as much resolve and toughness as the president.

Pfft...Good luck with that. Maybe you can make yourself look like the Average Joe that the drifting-more-and-more-left Communist Democratic Party professes to represent too.

Kerry's speech at McCaw Hall capped two days of campaigning in Seattle. Now, over Memorial Day weekend and through the next week, Kerry will discuss the importance of international alliances

IE castrating our sovereignity to the UN

, modernizing the military

By denying the military all the newfangled gadgets that would make the war a less costly proposition in terms of time, manpower, and human lives lost in combat...

, full engagement of diplomacy

By emiting a bunch of hot air via diplomats who accomplish nothing, and by asking the UN and the EU for permission to do anything.

, improved intelligence-gathering

What Mr. Kerry seems to be forgetting is that one has to have intelligence to make use of intelligence gathered.

and making the United States less dependent on foreign oil.

By making our gas prices look like those in Europe, by quadrupling our gas prices because of those Evil Sports Utility Vehicles™ that he doesn't own, but his family does. Anyone want to take a guess why quadrupled fuel prices wouldn't affect this "Average Joe" millionare? Anyone? Bueler? Bueler?

What he won't do is give many details about what he'd do differently than Bush in Iraq today

Because the man has nothing

, and aides said the speeches won't diverge from Kerry's current position on Iraq.

IE, he is going to parrot the party line. Nice bit of originality. How about saying something nice? Someone hasn't been listening to his mother...Shame!

What Kerry said in Seattle

On terrorists: "We will use every available resource to destroy you."
On Bush's approach to Iraq: "They looked to force before exhausting diplomacy. They bullied when they should have persuaded."

One man's bullying is another's persuasion. "Every available resource?" Sounds alot like what Bush did.

If U.S. is hit by unconventional weapons: "As commander in chief, I will respond with overwhelming and devastating force."

On Saudi Arabia's support for terrorism: The kingdom must "take concrete steps to stop their clerics from fueling the fires of Islamic extremism."

And I am sure that you will take all the steps necessary just like Clinton did. Wait, thats not right...

...Congressman Jim McDermott, D-Seattle, a strong opponent of the war and latecomer to the Kerry campaign, said that, for now, Kerry doesn't need to offer a detailed alternative to Bush's Iraq strategy.

And just why the fuck not? If he expects anyone to vote for him because he has better answers to the problems than Bush does, he better damned well be willing to start putting up or shutting up. Rough Translation: "I have a better solution to the problem than my opponent. I dont know what it is, but I know it is better, and I will tell you if I determine that you have a need to know." Jackass.

Former Colorado Sen. Gary Hart, who introduced Kerry at the speech yesterday, said in an interview that the only limit on how much Kerry should talk about Iraq is "a limit only of boredom. If you get into much detail, people will nod off."

Kerry could put a room full of coffee beans to sleep.

"There are people who say he is avoiding being specific," Hart acknowledged.

You think? That has kinda been a theme of his campaign, incase you havent noticed. Twit.

But he said yesterday's speech laid the framework for more details to come about how the military should be reorganized and modernized.

Nice specificity.

Sen. George Allen, R-Va., said Kerry's speech offered nothing new. "These petty, hate-filled political attacks don't make America safer or stronger or better," he said. "John Kerry and his surrogates' blame-America-first and hate-Bush rhetoric is not offering solutions or helping America win the war on terror."

Lots of Dems have that as a central theme of their campaigns and core ideals. Thanks Dean!

Kerry said the Bush administration has repeatedly ignored Theodore Roosevelt's advice to "walk softly and carry a big stick."

My God, you must really be retarded. If anything, Bush is epitomizing that ideal. When you have your big stick, you must not be afraid to use it. When your enemies know you are just a pussy and nothing but hot air, you will either get attacked or ignored. The sad thing is that ignored is your best option. Like you should be all over the globe, and are in el Casa de Mopar.

Kerry said the gravest threat to the United States today is "lawless states and terrorists" with weapons of mass destruction.

Like Iraq, Senator Fucktard?


Wow. That took a lot out of me, and got my blood boiling. No wonder I try not to listen or read about this empty-headed blowhard. My hat is off to Emperor Misha at The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler for having the stamina to do this daily.

Fox: Lott OK With Tough Interrogations:

"JACKSON, Miss. Sen. Trent Lott (search) says saving American lives should be the priority in Iraq (search), even if it might mean dealing harshly with prisoners to get vital security information."

Something the media doesn't get.

Media Interrogator: "Do you know about any thing that might help us?
Enemy Prisoner: "No."
Media Interrogator: "Ok, you are free to go."

Sorry, but this is The Real World™, and life doesn't work like that. Morons.

'We've seen the pictures. We don't approve of that,' the Mississippi Republican said in an interview with Jackson television station WAPT. '(That) type of physical perversion is inappropriate.'

Standard CYA. Sadly required in today's political climate. Lott knows all about the bad things that can come from not thinking ahead to Covering Your Ass.

'But interrogation is not a Sunday school meeting,' he said. 'This is a very tough situation. You have got to have sleep deprivation (search), you have got to scare them, you have got to threaten them.' "

Drudgery:Disabled Student Whose Hair Set Afire Told To Stay Home


"DENVER -- A 13-year-old Denver girl said she was threatened with a knife at her middle school and her hair was set on fire, yet she was the one who was told to stay home for the remainder of the school year while her alleged attacker wasn't suspended or even investigated.

Courtney Glowczewski has a small right arm and leg because of cerebral palsy, a disability that her teachers say has not kept her from working hard in school and being a good student. "

OOoooh, this pisses me off. I was a victim of bullying and the victim of jokes, but nothing like this. These teachers need to be beaten or something. I can't find words to adequately express the rage I feel towards the administration of the school where this took place. "Pulled a knife and set a disabled girl's hair ablaze?" This guy would be beaten to a pulp by half my school if it took place there, just on general principle! I would like to take a baseball bat to this kid's knee and then set his hair ablaze because he walks with a limp and then make fun of him for it. Where do kids learn to become such heartless fucktards? Oh, wait. Government school. Nevermind.

"7NEWS discovered that while Glowczewski was sent home, her alleged attacker is still in school, even though administrators confirmed he had a knife.

The principal has now admitted her staff did not call police, did not interview potential witnesses, and did not conduct a proper investigation."

WTF???

4. Which party do you think is smarter about the economy? Republican/Libertarian
5. Which party do you think is smarter about domestic affairs? Libertarian
6. Do you think we should keep our troops in Iraq or pull them out? If we are going to keep them in there, we should stop pussy-footing around and go in there like we went to kick ass. We dont need to consider the feelings of our enemies; we need to think about where we are going to bury them after we kill them. Otherwise, it is merely an academic exercise and we need to stop wasting fine military and civilian personnel on this.

7. Who, or what country, do you think is most responsible for 9/11? Osama Bin Laden (evil fuck)/Bill Clinton (gutless fuck who didn't get Osama's head on a platter the 3 times it was offered to him.) and Saudi Arabia.
8. Do you think we will find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? Already have.
9. Yes or no, should the u.s. legalize marijuana? Yes, as well as all illicit drugs. The government is not here to play "Nanny State," we are all grown-ups and can make our own decisions.

Kerry to Accept Nomination at Convention


"Boston is the place where America's freedom began, and it's where I want the journey to the Democratic nomination to be completed,"

Yes, it is where America's freedom began. It began with people who spin in their graves knowing that you dishonor the name of America by your very presence there and with your claims to love America and what it stands for.

"On Thursday, July 29, with great pride, I will accept my party's nomination for president in the city of Boston. From there we will begin our journey to a new America."

Horseface, I want no part of an America with you at the helm. I think we would be better off with an actual horse at the helm than you...

Lab: Sarin Made Before 1991 Gulf War:

"At the Pentagon, Brig. Gen. David Rodriguez (search), deputy director of operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said that the 155-millimeter artillery shell was made by the Iraqis before the 1991 Gulf War. The source of the bomb is still under investigation...some analysts worry the shell may be part of a larger stockpile of Iraqi chemical weapons now in the hands of insurgents, but no more have turned up."


Lets hope that no more turn up. Nothing like the known threat of bio and chem weapons in the hands of your enemy to stifle the morale of your troops.

Nope, SoDamned Insane sure didnt have any WMD's, did he...I for one am so glad that those unbiased people in the governments of France, Germany, Russia, and the UN didnt lie to us and had the balls to help us oust such a horrible regime...

Targets as of yet undetermined

Well, shit.

And here I sit next to the Walmart Shareholder's Convention, where thousands of people worth millions and millions of dollars total will all be. I heard somewhere that it was a good target for the terrorists. It makes sense.

Think about it. Imagine the panic world wide that would ensue if the majority of Wal-mart shareholders were suddenly wiped of the face of the Earth. Imagine a plane being flown into the WallyWorld HQ in Bentonville. All their transactions go through there, all over the world. Your pack of bubble gum is transmitted in realtime the instant you buy it to tell WWHQ that a pack of gum was bought, and to run a tally up to one box full, then an order for a box of packs of bubble gum is placed automatically onto the sheet of things that store needs shipped to it. That happens with your shoes, socks, garbage bags, hamburger, everything. Imagine if WW stores all over the world only had a 2-day supply of consumables for its customers. Or worse yet, imagine if each store was entirely dependent upon sending the data to WWHQ and was unable to sell goods because of the demise of the HQ (pure supposition)!


I guess its time to stock up on some consumables and ammo again...
