GWOT Chronicles: Strategy Schmategy
Its theme?
The U.S. and its allies…read the U.S. and Great Britain, really, the two main members of the so-far-still-dominant oil cartel…are using massive armaments to fight a war against individuals armed with rifles, and we are losing.
Hmmmm…
And The Reverend Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr. says that we are “God Damned”?
Hmmmm twice…
Sounds to me like he may have a point.
Read on for more.
Got an enemy?
One with a real beef?
A BLOOD beef?
Throw massive arms at it.
Maybe it will get scared and go away.
Not.
Never happens.
Too angry at the spilled blood of its relatives.
Always and forever.
Once you fuck up like that…and we done fucked up BIG time in the Third World for over a hundred years now, let alone what we did to our Native Americans and our minorities of color (most of whom were shanghied here in the first place)…
Once you fuck up like that it’s several generations before the healing starts EVEN IF YOU STOP COMMITTING THE CRIMES IN THE FIRST PLACE, something that we have not even begun to seriously consider doing. Clinton and Obama are both quite public about their intent to continue the economic imperialist polices of this country (albeit in a slightly kinder, gentler version), and McCain?
Pfffffttttt!!!
Just another serial killer, an aerial war criminal who got caught.
A General Custer of the skies, only he survived and made a career of his folly.
So there it is.
100 years of war?
McCain got THAT one right.
Kill ’em all and let God sort ’em out?
Yup.
Except…that tactic usually ends up backfiring.
ALWAYS ends up backfiring if you take the long view. Witness Nazi Germany’s fate for all you need to know on that subject.
We’re fucked, Jeff.
I am beginning to think that it is really too late for us.
We have become that against which we initially rebelled.
Only we have nukes instead of cannons and Blackwaters instead of Hessians.
God forgive us, because no one else seems to have that idea in mind.
No one we have ripped off, anyway.
God forgive us.
The Right Reverend Wright was right.
God DAMN America!!!
And Obama copped out. Too bad. Politics suck.
That phrase is going to be more than just a bumper sticker before THIS fiasco is over.
Watch.
He wasn’t cursing us, he was just observing something that is a plain fact if your eyes are not so clouded by media-promoted drugs and PoisonBurgers that you can still see a little.
We don’t need a politcal parser, no mattrer how eloquent he may be.
It’s too late for that.
Short of a truly revolutionary change in our international, domestic, energy and economic policies, we are now officially fucked.
President Obama (along with his political debts) or not.
We are now officially Fucked.
Bet on it.
I got yer “sign”.
Right HERE!!!
And here, too, you muderous fucks.
.
Bet on it.
Who stands for THESE people?
Who stands for ALL people?
Obama?
Not yet he hasn’t.
Too busy minding his electoral “Ps” ad “Q”s.
Mostly “Ps”.
Posing.
Parsing.
Obama Denounces Statements of His Pastor as `Inflammatory’
By JODI KANTOR
In the handful of years Senator Barack Obama has spent in the national spotlight, his stance toward his pastor has gone from glowing praise to growing distance to — as of Friday — strong criticism.
On Friday, Mr. Obama called a grab bag of statements by his longtime minister, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., “inflammatory and appalling.”
“I reject outright the statements by Rev. Wright that are at issue,” he wrote in a campaign statement that was his strongest in a series of public disavowals of his pastor’s views over the past year.
Earlier in the week, several television stations played clips in which Mr. Wright, of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, referred to the United States as the “U.S. of K.K.K. A.” and said the Sept. 11 attacks were a result of corrupt American foreign policy.
On Friday, Senator John McCain’s campaign forwarded to reporters an article in The Wall Street Journal in which Mr. Wright was quoted as saying, “Racism is how this country was founded and how this country is still run,” and accusing the United States of importing drugs, exporting guns and training murderers.
Later in the day, Rush Limbaugh dwelled on Mr. Wright in his radio program, calling him “a race-baiter and a hatemonger.”
In the statement he released a few hours later, Mr. Obama, known for his uplifting messages about national unity, professed a certain innocence about his pastor’s most incendiary messages.
“The statements that Rev. Wright made that are the cause of this controversy were not statements I personally heard him preach while I sat in the pews of Trinity or heard him utter in private conversation,” he said.
BULLSHIT!!!
No other word will do.
And Politicking.
Want a black President?
OK….
JEREMIAH WRIGHT FOR PRESIDENT!!!
GOD DAMN AMERICA?
AT LEAST HE TELLS THE TRUTH!!!
Clinton and Obama are BOTH full of it.
Clinton just has more experience in the field.
DAMN I am sick of this shit!!!
And none of my close relatives are lying dead a gutter.
Not yet, anyway.
Not yet.
We keep this shit up…???
Could be.
Could be REAL soon.
Who stands up for US!!!???
Happy St. Paddy’s Day.
Ya gutless wonders.
Happy St. Paddy’s Day to ya.
The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime, and punishment of his guilt.-John Philpot Curran from his speech on the Right of Election of Lord Mayor of Dublin, July 10, 1790.
Not quite so direct as the Reverend Wright’s soundbite, but in the neighborhood.
Servitude as punishment for guilt.
When are we going to hear this?
Without trying to kill the messenger.
When?
Not this week, obviously.
God DAMN America!!!
Go have a drink on the Irish.
I’m going to.
They will NEVER have an empire.
Too bloody honest.
