Think Again, Guys- It Didn't Work This Time

From the rather hilariously named American Thinker:

"Obama needs to learn a bit about statesmanship from Churchill, Washington and Reagan."

Two guys who won wars, and one guy who played a soldier in the movies.

Really, could there be any remark that better reveals the delusional thinking that allows people to support the Republican agenda?

This, from a post entitled, "How about this, President Obama: We win, They lose"

Yeah! That's a mature, carefully thought out plan. Like "You and what army," or "In your face, Buddy," or "Go Fuck Yourself." You know, like we had the last eight years.

We win, they lose. Boy, that really spells out the details, doesn't it? How could that not work?

You aren't supposed to explain details in a title. Way to stay sharp ge.

Thanks for that, Derek. I'll try to keep it in mind in the approximately two thirds of a second that I spend on the titles of my posts.

You responded with: "We win, they lose. Boy, that really spells out the details, doesn't it?"

Hence my response.

Yeah, it does, Derek. It's time for you to figure out that mindless, reflexive belligerence is not a viable foreign policy. And further, "we win" is something that people say on an elementary school playground, and, really, it stops working when the "they lose" guys get guns.

It is the title. They go into detail in the article, but you neglect their main points. I'm not saying I agree or disagree exactly with the article, but as part of the media, at least use some form of logic and truth.

"And further, "we win" is something that people say on an elementary school playground, and, really, it stops working when the "they lose" guys get guns."

Reporter: President Obama, why aren't you including more Republican ideas in the stimulus package?

Obama: I won.

You just called Obama childish by the transitive law.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination ...

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go...
