4 Obama's second term? Never heard of it.

5 If McChrystal resigns, maybe we can dispense with this stupid timetable and let our soldiers actually fight to win. I hope a bunch of stupid policies go out with him (though I don't blame him entirely, but the idiot voted for Obama.) Maybe he'll dish more to the media about the Obama administration, where a lot more people need firing. But WTF are we paying the Taliban for?!! That is the craziest thing I've ever heard. Medals for restraint. Money to our enemies. As Dennis Miller put it, "Thinking twice when half a second gets you dusted."

Agreed.  Based on other recent events, Barry is going to be awhile living down the "clown" comments. 

They don't seem to be building a lot of confidence throughout corps, especially when coupled with Gates piss poor performance last Sunday.

All of this wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that it is American soldiers who pay the highest price for their ineptitude.

19 "Bambi's regime is falling apart at the seams."

Love how he's ordering the General to DC to explain himself in person. He'll think about that moment while he's getting his dick sucked till his dying days. His base is totally getting off on this, too.

Chancellor Angela Merkel's government rebuffed U.S. calls to focus on bolstering growth over debt reduction, setting a course for conflict at the Group of 20 summit in Canada this week.

“Nobody can seriously dispute that excessive public debts, not only in Europe, are one of the main causes of this crisis,” Finance Minister Wolfgana Schaeuble told reporters in Berlin today alongside Merkel. “That’s why they have to be reduced.”

I have actually heard several lefties say the Taliban is not our enemy.

24 McCrystal said the profile indicated poor judgement and lack of character on his part. Well, shithead, voting for a Goddamned community organizing Marxist, wtf does that denote?

25 I get sick to my stomach when I think of all our troops getting killed.  Our town just buried a 22 year old medic last week.

Our kid is preparing to deploy first of the year, and now he says it may be sooner.
My thoughts about Afghanistan are all over the place.  On the one hand, let the military do what it does best, and leave them alone to win the damned thing.  On the other hand, if we're going to be so PC that the ROE put our troops very lives in danger, then get the hell out.

That should be big, if it can be proved beyond all doubt. I bet it's true.

29 another thing: from what i've heard of the critical comments, they're largely from his staff and do not publicly rebuke obama or his policies in any significant way. comparison to macarthur open denunciation and challenge to of truman? not even close. in fact, truman stood for a lot from his highness before sacking him.

Blue on blue action at Democratic Underground:

The leftwing blogosphere has a big problem: dissent. Last week we saw Keith Olbermann leaving the Daily Kos because he was attacked there for mildly criticizing Barack Obama. And this week, the administrator of the Democratic Underground, David Allen aka Skinner,  was forced to deal with a recent wave of purges (tombstoning). One reason  was due to simple liberal crackup temper tantrums among the DUers as happened when their most prominent member, William Rivers Pitt of Karl Rove indictment hoax fame, was tombstoned last month for threatening physical violence upon a fellow DUer who turned out to be a homeless woman.

DU is getting as bad as Chuckle's house.

 DUer who turned out to be a homeless woman.

Hell. Doesn't that make her one of their typical posters?

33 28: "That should be big, if it can be proved beyond all doubt."

Should be big - if it gets reported by MFM.

34 22 My brother in law works at a Toronto bank and has been reassigned to NY during the conference, because of protesters. I'm looking forward to asking him about this. He liked Ron Paul then switched to Obama when the McCain campaign collapsed.

35

Anyone know what the source for this story is?

Don't have the link, but there are MMS emails about some problems concerning safety and potential dangers back then. It appears as though that well was doomed to fail as some point.

36 "Should be big - if it gets reported by MFM."

Facts dominate news cycles, especially of this magnitude. They're talking about bringing in Hillary as VP for the second term. Trouble is brewing.

37 America Held Hostage:  Day 519

38 Anyone know what the source for this story is?

Kevin McCullough wrote that, so I'd take it with a huge grain of salt.

39 32 "BP Chief Tony Hayward cashed in about a third of his holding in the company one month before the Deepwater Horizon rig burst, causing an environmental disaster.

Mr Hayward, whose pay package is £4 million a year, then paid off the mortgage on his familyÂ’s mansion in Kent, which is estimated to be valued at more than £1.2 million."

That is suspicious. Not saying the government had anything to do with it, but it seems Hayward and Goldman Sachs knew something was up. Otherwise, it is just a very happy coincidence.

40 On the other hand, if we're going to be so PC that the ROE put our troops very lives in danger, then get the hell out.

As soon as the Commies got in total power in 2008 I said then it was time to bring them home. When they requested between 40K and 80K troops for the surge and Jug-ears delayed and said we would send 30K I knew it was all over.  We still haven't sent the 30K and he is talking about the timetable for withdrawal.

I knew that the asshole would cut and run and first opportunity then. Anyone killed between then and the actual withdrawal is only being killed to support his political ambitions.

I went through all that horseshit in Vietnam and I swore I wold never put up with that crap again. Well here we are, another war another Democrat who believes in sacrificing American soldiers for political expediency.

God I hate this SOB. It would be nice if we could take enough congress to impeach him for treason.

41 But McCullough links to a Bloomberg June 17 article. If nothing else, wouldn't it be prudent to at least dust off emergency plans back in February. Maybe look at boom inventories and locations of all the skimmers?

42

George Marshall, in a memoir of his service in WW I--apparently not intended for publication--provided advice for officers.

You should always support your superior's programs enthusiastically, the more energetically as you think them ill-advised.

I believe the latter is a matter of the reasonable presumption that it would be natural to slack off on a program or plan with which you disagreed and the self-advice to be more energetic would be useful.

It is, after all, the commander's platoon, or battalion, or army.  It's his privilege and responsibility to do the best he can and slacking on the part of the staff and subordinate commanders is, at best, treachery.

If you can't do that, resign.  But don't hang around and bad-mouth, sabotage, or fail to support your commander.

Having said that, Obama couldn't lead a scout patrol to a Dairy Queen.

43 That is suspicious. Not saying the government had anything to do with it, but it seems Hayward and Goldman Sachs knew something was up. Otherwise, it is just a very happy coincidence.

That's when Obama announced the lifting of the offshore drilling ban. Freeing up drilling is very bad for BP. They're heavily invested on the other side, in cap and trade, government-enforced "green" shit, etc. So it was a bear-looking moment for insiders who know what BP's real business is.

The spill will save them. Buy low.

44 Back in the conspiracy thread I posted some screwy rumors going around about the oil spill. One of them was BP CEO sold off a lot of stock before the spill started.  Maybe it wasn't so screwy after all.

June 22 (Bloomberg) -- Sales of U.S. previously owned homes unexpectedly fell in May, a sign demand was probably pulled into prior months before a June tax-credit deadline.

The decline raises the risk the retrenchment following the expiration of the tax credit will be deeper than anticipated. A slump in builder shares since late April has exceeded the retreat in the broader market on concern the damage from the end of government stimulus, mounting foreclosures and unemployment may cause renewed weakness.

This can't be. Barry's stimulus saved the day. He saved or created 90 trillion jobs

46 The Pope and Nancy Pelosi are on the same stage in
Yankee Stadium in front of a huge crowd.

The Pope leans towards Mrs. Pelosi and said, "Do you
know that with one little wave of my hand I can make
every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will
not be a momentary display, but will go deep into their
hearts and they'll forever speak of this day and rejoice!"

Pelosi replied, "I seriously doubt that. With one little wave
of your hand?  Show me!"

So the Pope backhanded her --

After a couple of 'grafs come the details:  The "warning" is a video by American-born taliban convert Adam Gadahn.

One tiny problem for AP:  As reported on numerous blogs, that video is about 4 months old, as evidenced by what Adam Shithead references and what he avoids mentioning (because it hadn't happened back then, obviously).

Way to go, AP and the rest of the dinosaur MFM.  We can always count on you guys for smart, timely reporting and analysis--of who won last week's Merkin Idol.

Unfortunately the major TV networks will always survive, by loading up with moronic shows--but you newspaper guys are living on borrowed time.

57 Renee Sharp, the California director of the Washington-based Environmental Functioning Group,cheap wholesale also mentioned she hoped the law would dissuade consumers from getting relatively higher radiation phones until finally their effect on the human entire body is completely understood. The advocacy group provided reports and other counsel on the city's Department on the Environment as they designed the policy. "We're also hoping it's going to spur higher debate about whether the latest federal standards are satisfactory or not," Sharp stated. "We undoubtedly do not feel that folks are not likely to obtain cell mobile phones due to radiation." Business officials wouldn't speculate within the impact to their business, cheap cell phones but many of the nation's most popular mobile cell phones have fairly higher SAR levels. This can be mainly because a lot of individuals popular cell phones are smart mobile phones, which have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth receivers, as well as essential cellular capability, that add to their total SAR rating, based on Walls. Under the law, greater chains could have to place SAR notices commencing in February, even though other retailers could have right up until 2012. Even though the supervisors have been largely unanimous, reaction outside of Town Hall and across the nation was mixed.
