Big Government : Why Many Young People Love Ron Paul and Why Many Older People Despise Him

Sun, 5 Feb 2012 03:12:55 +0000

Well said. We could afford a 27,000 man army and a twelve frigate navy when 2 vast oceans counted for something AND our economy was turned almost totally inward; now that the oceans don't count and our economy is closely integrated with the rest of the world we need strong armed forces that can (working on the theory that the best defence is a good offence) project power around the world. Sucks, but that is the reality of the situation...

Breitbart.com : Immigration debate shakes US to the core

Nose, this is an article from AFP (Agency France Presse) that Breibart has merely reprinted; blaming him for its content would be like yelling at Drudge for the content of a NY Times article he had linked to...

Breitbart.com : Immigration debate shakes US to the core

Fri, 30 Apr 2010 23:13:55 +0000

"The law signed by Governor Jan Brewer last week criminalizes undocumented immigrants and gives police power to stop people on mere suspicion of being in the country illegally." Wrong, wrong, WRONG!!!! Either the "jounalist" hasn't bothered to read the law, or they don't care... and are ignorant on top of it. 1) An undocumented alien is already comitting a FEDERAL crime, simply by the fact of being undocumented. 2) The law does NOT allow for people to be stopped on "mere suspicion of being in the country illegally"; it has to occur during the course of some other 'lawful contact', such as being stopped for speeding. Stupid, ignorant, and liberal is no way to go thru life, son...

Big Hollywood : Green = Red: Life As a Real 'No Impact Man'

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 00:02:56 +0000

"Dude, I couldn't agree with you more, and I'm ready to help you get all this evil out of your life! Let's start with you CD's and your DVD's; they are all funded, produced, and distributed by corporations. Next we will work on the stereo; again, all produced and distributed (and, incidentally, researched by) corporations. We can then move on to the TV and DVD player, then your computer; that will make a nice start. Then, if we can find someone with an acetelyne torch we can move on to those mountain & street bikes that you are so proud of." And so on and so forth... I will probably never actually do it, but it's a lot of fun to think about.

Well said, Yervand... On a related note, I have a friend who will occasionally go off on a rant about how evil corporations are, how they are destroying the world, blahblahblah (all the usual crapola); he will do this even as we all sit there listening to music on his stereo and/or watching cable TV, drinking commercially-produced beer, eating commercially-produced food, etc; one of these days I think I will have to grab his big, heavy, 'barbarian sword' hanging on one of the ceiling beams, and start a little tirade:

Breitbart.com : Statistics experts reject global cooling claims

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:53:50 +0000

Notice they don't enlighten us at to who, exactly, these "independent statistics experts" are; also notice the spin that "They (skeptics) say that since then, temperatures have fallen—thus, a cooling trend.". That's not the case. The argument is not that the we have had a cooling trend, but rather that temps have plateaued since 1998, even as the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere have increased,; and this is just as important, because according to the GHG model the temp should be rising as the CO2 level rises. I wonder if this isn't in response to that BBC story two weeks ago where they finally admitted that the science isn't really settled yet... talk about Hell freezing over!

Big Hollywood : Lee Marvin: That Glorious Bastard

Wed, 5 Aug 2009 01:28:54 +0000

And speaking of back up... Woody Strode co-starred with Marvin in 'The Professionals' , along with Robert Ryan and Burt Lancaster. And, as long as we are at it, we also have Jack Palance, Claudia Cardinale, and, finally, Ralph Bellamy. Y'know, the more I think about it, the more I think it is time to put that flick in my Netflix q....

My apologies if someone mentioned it already (at work, no time to read though the posts thoroughly), but another great Lee Marvin flick is 1966's 'The Professionals' I also wanted to mention a quote of his that I saw in a gun magazine bio of him a few years ago: "For me, pretending to be someone else is strictly a matter of business; but it is a business that I love and respect."

"If they want to come over to the White House and go over line by line what's going on, I will be happy to do that," he said. " Done & done, Mr. President! I want to see the Republicans and the Blue Dog Dems do exactly that; go over there and sit down with Barry and go over that sucker line by line. And I don't care how long it takes; if we, the taxpayers, are going to be expected to shell out a trillion or more dollars for this bill I want us all to know exactly what we are getting for our money...

As I recall, according to a former VC officer interviewed for the History Channel's History of the Vietnam War, he and the few surviving members of the VC leadership harbor a strong suspicion that a secret objective of Hanoi's with the Tet offensive was to elminate the southern leadership and replace it with their own people; the reason for this was because the VC wanted to establish a separate communist regime in the South, while Hanoi wanted to establish a single communist state...
