It wasn't. And, just in case you think I enjoy being a bitch about Obama's dickless impersonation of a president, I don't. Further, I remind you, that I don't even think he wants to be this way. He's just too afraid they will kill him if he doesn't go this route. It may seem harsh, but, well, that's no goddam excuse. When you are so all-fired avid to be president, THIS is what you sign on for. Period. Full stop. No shit. Sorry, bub. You keep your oath and if they kill you for it, that's none of your lookout.
And it's getting more familiar by the minute....
If you have not yet heard what witness Haskell has to say about the Lap Bomber, click in to the blog and it's right near the top of my sidebar. About a half an hour run time and there won't be part of a doubt left in your mind that this was a false flag to whip up support for our aggression in Yemen... which... heavy sigh... is almost certainly about whipping up Saudi aggression toward Iran, so, well, LISTEN TO THAT INTERVIEW AND START SCREAMING!

Cruising the blogosphere this morning I came across a commenter who I had long ago interacted with elsewhere - Robert Lockwood Mills.
ReplyDeleteI looked up his website to see if he had any more books out - he does - on baseball.
In the review of his previous book I found the following:
The Lindbergh Syndrome is presented here as a societal ailment. Even as we ask, "Where have all our heroes gone?" we at once indulge in what Mark Twain in 1873 first identified as Gilded Age conceits...frivolousness, laissez-faire economic policies, anti-intellectualism, and public gullibility toward business and government malfeasance. Because Gilded Ages lead to cynicism and social decay, this book hopes its modest goal of calling attention to their existence will help American citizens avoid them in the future...and in the process, be able once again to recognize the difference between a hero and a celebrity.
in the process, be able once again to recognize the difference between a hero and a celebrity - we sure blew that one!
:mad:
Well, and I've been thinking about it, and, technically, we didn't all blow that one. Some of us, me, for example, saw that Obama was the only one who presented a slim CHANCE of ending up a hero. I suppose that chance still exists [the old where-there's-life-there's-hope saw], but vastly too many people are DYING while people try to hold out that hope. So it actually IS the better part of valor to STOP hoping AND NAIL HIS ASS TO THE WALL.
