Saw the Harry Potter movie today

Me and the wife took the afternoon off and went to the theater. First time in well over a year, if my memory serves.

It was worth it.

Kim du Toit loved it as well. Most everybody who's seen it likes the darker tone that the movies and books take. And Kim's comment:

And if nobody else can see the parallels between the British government and the Ministry of Magic, you need to see the movie again.

Brilliant.

Having never been to Britain, I'll have to take his word for it. But the parallels between Dolores Umbridge and the 'Merikan Publik skool sistim are spot on.

Anyways, I'm taking the night off. Y'all have fun.

Two Must Reads

From Cold Fury. One is on the Libby pardon, and Bill Clinton's blatant hypocrisy. Now, before any idiot Leftists (redundancy alert) start shrieking about how we always blame Clinton for everything, let's just keep a very simple fact in mind - if Clinton stopped interjecting himself into modern politics, he would not be a legitimate target. Period. But since the narcissistic coke-head can't stop himself from showing his ass on a national stage, he's fair game.

Whether sending an innocent man to prison or releasing the guilty for personal benefit, the common denominator is the Clintons’ abuse of power, or as Bill put it; ” You’ve got to understand, this is consistent with their philosophy; they believe that they should be able to do what they want to do, and that the law is a minor obstacle.”

Whether it was Al Gore using the Naturalization Office as a voter mill, or Sandy Berger trying to deceive the 9/11 Commission, or auditing politcal opponents or swapping pardons for ballots or prosecuting innocent people, The Clintons used every office, policy and program of government for their own personal advantage.

And this is who Democrats want to reinstall in the White House?

That IS the Cult of Personality of which the Left is always accusing us of bestowing on George Bush.

I would oppose the Clintons on policy grounds even if they were honest, principled and honorable. But they aren’t. This family of jack-leg reprobate grifters belong nowhere near the levers of power for that reason alone. By the way, in Hillary’s World, YOU are Billy Dale–a mere flea to be stepped on if need be.

Sadly, the press corps are so far up the Clintons’ posteriors that when the light is just right, you can make out Keith Olbermann’s profile in Hillary’s Adam’s Apple.

I'm loving that last line...

The second, more recent link is in regards to the white-flag-waving congresscritters calling for America's abject surrender.

In the face of relentless baying from the mainstream press, spurred on by same from a left wing that objectively despises everything America stands for and yearns only for its defeat and diminishment, Bush returned with forlorn alacrity the spine he had borrowed from his closest advisers and began backtracking. The “Axis of Evil” became not an assemblage of blackguard states to be dealt with sternly and with clarity of vision, but “partners in peace” to be fecklessly negotiated with. Hamas became not a terrorist organization dedicated with an ironclad fidelity to genocide and the destruction of the only true Mideast democracy, but the legitimate government of the all-but-formally-recognized State of Palestine. Hezbollah lobbed Katyusha rockets into Israel, and Israel’s response was eyed warily for the remotest sign of “disproportionality.” The promises garnered from meetings with thuggish crypto-fascist religious dictatorships were to be viewed not with a seemly suspicion but with child-like naivete and blind, over-optimistic trust. And always, always, always, the plaintive note could be faintly discerned underneath Bush’s increasingly Clintonesque bravado: “just don’t hurt us anymore — please.”

And now Syria has invaded Lebanon, and Iran careens along utterly unchecked on its way to becoming a sort of terrorist superstate, and Democrats continue squealing like Ned Beatty in Deliverance for an immediate and unconditional surrender and generally dancing to the Islamist tune, shrilly advocating for “fighting” terrorists in any place other than where we know for sure they now are. And now some Republicans are joining them.

But who can blame them, really? From the opening moments of the Iraq campaign, when “shock and awe” were abandoned for something a whole lot more quotidian and supposedly “humane,” Bush has allowed the slow, sure Democratization of this war through his own ineptness and lack of vision, and it’s almost complete. The only thing lacking now from full realization of the same old high-handed Democrat war-losing strategy is humiliating news footage of American helicopters leaving embassy roofs, with desperate locals falling from the skids like raindrops. But we’ll see that soon enough.

The idea of using the Capitol Building as a bio-weapon test facility is getting more appealing by the day. This country is winning the war in Iraq despite the best efforts of Congress to force us to lose. Period. End of story. Our military is succeeding in the face of a Congress who would love nothing more than to see us defeated and in full retreat.

They can all burn in hell for all I care. Ever last one of those worthless fucking bastards.

Oh, great

Al-Qaeda renewing efforts to sneak into US.

And yet, for some reason, the politicians biggest priority is NOT closing the border so that we can control who comes into this country, What is their priority? Giving amnesty to illegal aliens. Like the kind who work for Al-Qeada and want to kill Americans. But they're just doing the work that Americans don't want to do, right?

I'll tell you what - when, not if, a nuclear weapon gets detonated in the middle of a major American city, can we then hang all the current politicians from lamp-posts as an example to everyone else?

SECURE THE DAMN BORDERS!

Here's a good example of just how fucked up our immigration problems are: Sex-offender immigrant charged with murder of 14 year old girl. Now, what's really disturbing about this isn't just the crime he's charged with, it's the fact that he was charged with a sexual crime back in NINTEEN-FUCKING-NINETY and DID NOT GET KICKED OUT OF THE COUNTRY!

Adhahn was being held at a federal immigration detention in Tacoma because he could face deportation for his 1990 incest conviction, said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Lorie Dankers. He also has been charged in Pierce County with failing to register as a sex offender, and would face that charge before being deported.

So he was convicted of a sex crime SEVENTEEN FUCKING YEARS AGO and they're just now getting around to kicking him out of the country?

The gummint has failed in it's task. The president has failed. Every worthless bloodsucking parasite infesting Capitol Hill has failed in their task of protecting this country, and the results are going to end up being a lot worse than September 11th. But they wanted to force amnesty down our throats.

Where's that damn reset button?

BONUS UPDATE: via Random Nuclear Strikes, I find out that this convicted sex offender illegal alien, who's killing the kids that Americans don't want to kill, is a registered voter! Which, in the Democrat American Communist Party stronghold of King County, should come as no surprise. This is, after all, the area where the Selected-Not-Elected governor was put into office despite massive amounts of proven voter fraud.

Illegal Alien? Check.

Convicted Child Rapist? Check.

Illegally registered to vote? Check.

This is the man that the worthless asshats in Congress want to give citizenship to.

From my email

It's been one hell of a busy week, so here's a little something sent to me by my father-in-law.

Last Request

The old priest lay dying in the hospital. For years he had faithfully served the people of the nation's capital. He motioned for his nurse to come near. "Yes, Father?" said the nurse." I would really like to see Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton before I die." whispered the priest. "I'll see what I can do, Father" replied the nurse.

The nurse sent the request to the Senate and waited for a response. Soon the word arrived. Kennedy and Clinton would be delighted to visit the priest. As they went to the hospital, Clinton commented to Kennedy "I don't know why the old priest wants to see us, but it will certainly help our images". Kennedy couldn't help but agree.

When they arrived at the priest's room, the priest took Kennedy's hand in his right hand and Clinton's hand in his left. There was silence and a look of serenity on the old priest's face. Finally Senator Kennedy spoke. "Father, of all the people you could have chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you near the end?" The old priest slowly replied "I have always tried to pattern my life after our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." "Amen" said Kennedy. "Amen" said Clinton.

The old priest continued..."He died between two lying thieves. I would like to do the same."

Truth, unvarnished

Captain Ed has the transcript up from his interview with Afghan Ambassador Said T. Jawad. Sometimes, a person says something that is such a fundamental truth that everybody has overlooked it. It needs to be repeated. Ambassador Jawad said one of those things:

We all demand freedom. We all hate dictatorship. I don't think that anywhere in the world anybody is either trying or it is possible to impose democracy... Democracy is not imposed, it is a value of a human being. What is being imposed is dictatorship. What you are doing in Afghanistan is trying to prevent others to impose dictatorship and despotism to the Afghan people. [The Taliban are] are teaching people what kind of clothes to wear, schools to go, and this is what you're trying to do, is to end despotism and dictatorship. You're not imposing democracy, you're preventing others from imposing dictatorship on the Afghan people, and to the region, and if they get their way, to the world.

(emphasis mine)

That needs to be printed out and tatooed on the foreheads of the Loony Left.

The Terrorist Leftist Nexus - Imbicile Edition

I give you Jane Felix-Browne - Imbicile:

51-year-old British grandmother and parish councillor from Cheshire has married her 6th husband, Omar Ossama bin Laden (age 27), the fourth eldest son of Osama bin Laden after a holiday romance and is to apply for a visa so that he can visit Britain.

So OBL Jr is into older women? Or! He wants the run of Britain.

"He is the most beautiful person I have ever met. His heart is pure, he is pious, quiet, a true gentleman, and he is my best friend.”

This one! Now, HE is mister right! Forget the 5 previous husbands. Something tells me grandma isn't that great a judge of character.

Met bin Laden in Egypt in September while undergoing treatment for multiple sclerosis.

Young, healthy, is there any doubt what OBL Jr sees in the old girl?

They were married in Islamic ceremonies in Egypt and Saudi Arabia and are awaiting permission from the authorities in Riyadh to make their marriage official.

What's the hold up? Muslim theocratic intolerance? Nah.

“Omar is wary of everyone. He is constantly watching people who he feels might be following him. Not without reason he is fearful of cameras.

His paranoia must be part of his charm.

He is the son of Osama,” she said. “But when we are together he forgets his life.”

"Eh, forget all that stuff about my terror mastermind daddy, honey. Let's talk about that VISA! YEAH! Now you're getting me hot."

Mrs Felix-Browne already knew some members of the bin Laden family through her Islamic marriage to a Saudi man in London when she was 16. She believes that she actually met Osama bin Laden at a party in London in the 1970s.

Saudi man.....age 16...hmmmmm. So right off the bat, this clueless twit is shacking up with someone willing to marry a 16 year old child. What kind of family life must 16 year old Jane have had?

She said that her husband left Afghanistan before the attacks on the US on September 11, 2001. However, some reports claim that he split from his father only after the attack on New York and an argument about tactics. Mrs Felix-Browne insisted: “He last saw his father in 2000 when they were both in Afghanistan. He left his father because he did not feel it was right to fight or to be in an army. Omar was training to be a soldier and he was only 19. “He told me he has had no contact with his father since the day he left him."

"But he told me he didn't have anything to do with that bad old terrorism stuff." It's ok to get hitched at 16 but joining the old man's jihad at ONLY 19, that's just nuts!

He misses his father.

"Awwwwwww! Daddy's in a cave somewhere making plans to murder countless innocents, habibi baby. Let nanna hold you."

Omar doesn’t know if it was his father who was responsible for the 9/11 attacks. I don’t think we will ever know.”

It's soo hard to know these things. Especially after Osama Sr. recorded video of himself gloating about how successful his attacks were and eagerly shared it with the rest of the world.

He works as a scrap metal dealer in Jedda

Funny. A bunch of "scrap metal" was shipped out of Iraq before Operation Iraqi Freedom. Wonder if this is the same kind of stuff.

Mrs Felix-Browne, who now uses the Islamic name Zaina Mohamad,

Submission comes in many forms.

says that she speaks to her husband for several hours every day over the internet or by telephone. During their conversations she refers to him repeatedly as “Habibi”, the Arabic for “my love”. She said: “I find it very difficult to live without him and I know he does too. But really we have the most normal life possible.”

"OMG grams I miss u soo much LOL TTFN XOXOXO" Sounds like they're really close, eh? How close? Glad ya asked!

She was aware before her marriage that her husband already had another wife and a two-year-old child. “I haven’t seen her but I have spoken to her for about an hour on the telephone,” she said. “She is fine about it.”

"No, nanna! She means nothing to me. Just a sec, I need to put the phone down while I bend her young, child-bearing ass over the bed and ooooohhhh yeah! What was I saying? Oh uh, yeah, only you nanna!"

Now she hopes that Mr bin Laden will come to Britain. “He would like to spend quite a bit of time here,” she said. “There is no reason why he should not come to live, but I don’t think he would like the weather.”

Hey, gram gram, I bet you'd find he'd get over the weather in no time at all.

Mrs Felix-Browne said that the couple hoped to use their position to help to heal the wounds caused by her father-in-law. “All we want is peace in this world and I will do all I can to promote it.”

Yeah, a delusional internet fling between an aging imbicile to the (already hitched) son of the world's most wanted killer will be as a flock of white doves.

On the list of cities I wouldn't cry about if they were nuked

You can add Olympia.

A planned visit of three naval ships during this year’s Lakefair is in serious doubt because of concerns about providing security.

Most Olympia City Council members said Tuesday night that they would deny a request from Capital Lakefair for six to 10 police officers to provide security.

Piss on 'em. I don't know how Olympia turned out the way it did, with Ft. Lewis and McChord AFB right on their borders. That would be like San Fransicko having Ft. Hood and Whiteman close by.

Olympia is another city that proves when you let Leftist take over, everything goes to hell. Sondra, would you PLEASE move the hell away from that city so we can send in the B-52's?

Drivin' to work today

and I was listening to AFN on the radio. They got Commie Network News or something like that. I can't quite remember, because all the ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN are all a bunch of worthless asshats, and I only listen to AFN so I don't have to hear reggeton 24/7.

Anyways, some talking head is blabbing about John McCain having to fire a bunch of people, and the closing remark is "McCain has seen his popularity plummet ever since allying himself to President Bush over the surge in Iraq."

I almost vomited right then and there.

The surge in Iraq isn't the problem. There's this little problem of ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, and the AMNESTY BILL, or hooking up for a tryst with Teddy (hic!) Kennedy on the whole shamnesty issue that has torpedoed McCain. But according to Cockgoblin News Network, McCain's problem is that he supported the surge.

Just another example of why I never watch CNN, and why I call them the propaganda wing of the Democrat American Communist Party. Worthless whores, the lot of them. Gutter wenches, trollops and slimy filth masquerading as an objective media outlet.

Rope. Tree. Journalist. Some assembly required.

Bring it, Beeyotch!

Democrat American Communist Party Blogger wants to shoot Rush Limbaugh, asks for someone to kill Ted Nugent.

Alls I gots ta say is this:

BRING IT!

“How we can remain ‘civil’ in the face of this is beyond my ken,” wrote Williams. “I will only reiterate what I’ve said WHEN they manage to inevitably push their litany of hatespeak into actual bloodletting, and full-blown civil war (for there is no other place that this hatred of American against American can go), well ... I’ve got dibs on Rush, as soon as it’s legal and lawful to shoot him. Whoever wants Ted Nugent is welcome to him, but I would prefer that you would call it now, so as to conserve on ammunition. We will need to manage it prudently. But when the day comes that they have finally set brother against brother, and sister against sister in the name of their pocketbooks, I won’t approach exterminating them with anything approaching remorse. They’ve already told me what they think of me, of my friends and of my peers. Now, I’m returning the favor. Put that in your pipe and have the WSJ editorial staff show you how to smoke it, Nugent. Courage.”

The first shot that these anti-American asshats fire will be their last. Period. End of story. And not only will we NOT have to listen to them whine and snivel anymore, but we'll have that many less people trying to tear America down and turn it into a socialist shithole.

So bring it, beeyotch. People like this are the domestic enemies I swore an oath to defend the Constitution against.

Heh. Heheh! BWAAA HAAA HAAAA!

Old Cindy Sheehan, who as you might remember used her dead son to launch her political career as a major league tool, now is throwing a temper tantrum at San Fran Nan.

Drumwaster seems kinda split on everything:

Your humble Host is split as to which idiot to cheer for - either Pelosi (which will drive the spike of obscurity into Sheehan’s pocketwatch-for-a-heart) or Sheehan (who will drag the Democrats over that precipice once and for all).

There's no split for me at all. First of all, anything that can get Bela Pelosi out of Washington D.C. is a good thing. Second of all, putting Sheehan in Congress with a (D) next to her name will drive home the point that the Democrat American Communist Party is crazy as a shithouse rat, corrupt beyond all belief, and unable to be trusted with any sharp objects much less the country.

And third - watching the Democrat American Communist Party ravage on national television the woman that they used like the cheap whore would just be the cherry on top of the trainwreck that is the Democrat American Communist Party's politics.

In short, watching the Democrat American Communist Party eat itself is a good thing. Besides, no matter who wins between the Botoxed Bitch and Shithead Sheehan, the Democrat American Communist Party will STILL be represented by an anti-American, Communist clusterfuck.

Does that seem harsh? Too bad. I call 'em as I see 'em. I can't wait for the hate mail to pour in.

Discipline

Drill and Ceremony. Part of the military, always has been, always well be. Phil DAVID!!!! has four videos to the Masters of D&C. Go. Watch. Now.

Sorry, David. Despite the fact that we share the same first name, I didn't get it right.

You can't get more blunt than this

from the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy:

There is no social benefit in decreasing the availability of guns if the result is to increase the use of other means of suicide and murder, resulting in more or less the same amount of death. Elementary as this point is, proponents of the more guns equal more death mantra seem oblivious to it. One study asserts that Americans are more likely to be shot to death than people in the world's other 35 wealthier nations. While this is literally true, it is irrelevant-except, perhaps to people terrified not of death per se but just death by gunshot. A fact that should be of greater concern--but which the study fails to mention--is that per capita murder overall is only half as frequent in the United States as in several other nations where gun murder is rarer, but murder by strangling, stabbing, or beating is much more frequent.
