6 You said "weapon".  I feel very violent now, and must blame you for any actions I may engage in later.  Right now, I am killing time, so that can be laid at your door!

Absolutely LOVE the disclaimer:

Is it pending copyright, or are you donating it to the public domain for the greater good?

I fervently hope it is the latter.

10 Just think about some of those cartoons we put out over here. But that was after the war started for us.

11 My narcissistic, selfish, half-white, neutered cat can imitate Obama without any training.

12 Whoa, last night's sock

13 There you go, blowing the wingnut dog whistle again. You're worse than Sarah-Beck-Limbaugh.

14 All your internal rhymes are belong to us.

15 Palin would have had the dog drawing bullseyes on peoples' photos.

16 Lefties are still Humorless Control Freaks.

17 Weapons!  Weapons!! OMG LauraW wants the Tea Party to arm themselves with weapons and attack their political opponents.

18 My cat meows "Obama" when she covers her poop.  Should I be worried?

My ass make "Obama" noises after a night of Mexican food and beer.

Smells like "Obama" as well. My wife refuses to walk on the same side of the house after that kind of a bathroom break.

19 OT: I'm tired of hearing about this. Giffords has been opening her eyes from the beginning. Obama will have to wait even longer for that sainthood patch.

"Giffords is in a drug-induced coma in intensive care. Doctors frequently awaken her to check her responsiveness, and she could open her eyes and respond to simple commands Sunday - an encouraging sign, Rhee said."

This completely changes the impression I had that the Nazis were light-hearted goofs.

 

("Fuck ME?!  No - FUCK YOU!!!)

How about kitteh Hitler?

26 Four out of five Nazis surveyed preferred bringing dogs in for questioning over playing fetch.

27 she could open her eyes and respond to simple commands Sunday Yeah, but the playoffs were on then. And then there was the BCS party on Monday, leaving only Tuesday to practice the speech. Also, the t-shirts were printed up yet.

28 Now that's a good one, Vic.

29 We Germans aren't all smiles und sunshine.

Time to head for the vet's office!

Clearly, the kitteh is constipated....

36 It's paw? It's?!!!! It is paw!!!!

37 I like how Penn Jillette put it.

38 In 1941, a Finnish businessman named Tor Borg trained his dog to raise it's paw (heil) in response to the verbal command 'Hitler.'

You reich-wing rethuglican racists just love you some Nazis, don't you?! Of course the leading story at your vaunted Ace of Spades is about your beloved mascot - a Nazi dog.

Now my cat, Miss Killgore, is very upset at your bad, bad craziness. You will pay for this!

GET OFF MY INTERNETS.

I bid you adieu.

39 Laura W I like the disclaimer.

It also gives me a thought on the gun control aspect that is being brought up by the left.

All we need to do is put stickers on guns like the ones they put on lawnmowers (That show in graphics flying fingers if you put your hand into the spinning blades) That way idiots will finally know they can kill people.

40

I've been saying 'fuck yourself' for years, long before it was cool. As a matter of fact, I say it everytime I see O on tv.  Glad to see it's finally catching on.   

Excellent disclaimer LauraW- well played.

41 I read a story a while back about a Bavarian clock maker in the 1930s who made cuckoo clocks with a little saluting Hitler figurine in place of the cuckoo. Apparently the Nazis saw them as a compliment because the guy survived Hitler's rise to power. Maybe there's profit potential here... in Obama cuckoo clocks.

42 OT: Not only did initial jobless claims 'unexpectedly' rise, but in the same article, economists said 'oh, that always happens after Christmas'

43

That is silly. Look at his sunglasses. The dog is obviously doing an impersonation of Helen Keller trying to flush a toilet.

44 #38

I think I'm gonna give that one a "Fuckin' A".

45 This is quite interesting, because Hitler similarly trained his dog, Blondi, to raise her tail in response to the verbal command 'bockwurst.'

46

 Fuck yourself.

Ah, we've missed your gentle tone...bitch.

47 So how come the Black Messiah didn't make his no finger pointing comment earlier then last night?  Perhaps because he thought the Blood Libel might work?

48 OT: Not only did initial jobless claims 'unexpectedly' rise, but in the same article, economists said 'oh, that always happens after Christmas'

Posted by: t-bird at January 13, 2011 10:55 AM (FcR7P)

 

But declining unemployment doesn't happen right before Christmas which they trumpeted as signs of a recovering economy

49 Would a cat that gives the National Socialist salute be arrested in Germany? Could it be named Hitler?

50 My father, who is 83 years old, and I were watching the pep rally memorial service last night.  When the Indian Native American guy gave the blessing my father turned to me and asked,
"Do you suppose he's going to welcome the Great White Father from Washington?"

Cracked me up.

^{I denounce myself.}

51 My dog lifts his back leg when I say, "Obama".

52

Any inadvertent absorption and/or use or misuse of the political atmosphere this martial verbiage creates is not attributable to this author, this blog, or the right wing in general. Fuck yourself.

Yet you identify with a wing, a term used by the Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps to refer to a unit consisting of several sqadrons. Worse, you drag your non–matrial-verbiage commenters into it.

As a private citizen, my chief concern is the general use of military terms with no consideration of its major consequences. Does anything warrant this verbiage, or are you just being petty when you do this? Because once you master the language and have command of it, there's no technical reason to use martial terms to produce first class writing.

Then again, maybe everyone here at the HQ is in the tank for the right. Maybe I should read a column in the Washington Post instead. 

53 What gets me about this story is the chutzpah of German officials. I kow things were tense in East Eaurope and Finland was a quasi ally of Germany, at least to the extent that they depended on some German miltary material to fend of the Soviets. But all that aside, how does a German official order a Finnish citizen to report to the German embassy for questioning? It would be as if the US ambasador to England ordered an English businessman from Kent to appear at the US embassy to answer questions about mocking Obama. Not that I would be surprised if they did but I would expect him (and the English) to tell the ambassador to go to hell.

54 Bo pisses himself whenever you say "Michelle".

55 Why the govt numbers are bs, from ZH:

Unfortunately, the Ministry of Disinformation and Data Revision will not be able to blame the latest major economic data point revision on dyslexia. After as we previously noted, the Chicago PMI was revised lower from 68.6 to 66.8 just three short days ago, today that other standout number, the Philly Fed, which had originally printed at the better than expected level of 24.3, has just  been revised much lower to 20.8. Since this number means the Philly Fed actually declined from the November print of 22.5, one can see why even the Chinese are seeing their jaws drop at the ceaseless "adjustment" of what has now become an unrepentantly upwardly economic data stream.

56

Borg was ordered to the German Embassy in Helsinki and questioned about his dog's unusual greeting habits.

All he could say was, "You will be assimilated."

57 Dear LauraW.,

Are you suggesting we train our pets to "say" "(go) Fuck Yourself" to the MFM?

I'm down with that, but only a few species of birds can enunciate well enough to be understood. Pretty much everything else from whatever critter sounds like "gaaack", "mmmooorph moorzle", "Don't you have something better to eat?", or " ".

And if we don't have pets, can we just train our kids instead?

Sincerely,
Inquisitive in Flyover Country

58

A friend of mine has his dog trained so that you can say, "Would you rather be a democrat or a dead dog?" and the dog rolls over on it's back, feet in the air.

I find this endlessly amusing.

59

...Fuck yourself.

 

I do, often and with vigor!

60 Bo pisses himself whenever you say he sees Michelle.


FIFY

61 Bo lifts his hind quarters when you say "Rahm".

62 And our motto shall be, "MORONICA FOR MORONS!"

63 I think I'll train our two kittehs to run to the remote and turn off the TV whenever Preznit FUBAR comes on. 

64 Hey, try to say "Tor Borg" ten times fast. It must be Finnish for 'toy boat'.

65 63 Heh

66

I'm gonna exercise my right to flip off "the Power" by wearing a T-shirt that says:

"I attended the Tucscon memorial service, but all I got was this lousy vuvzuela".

67 "Do you suppose he's going to welcome the Great White Father from Washington?"

Thank you, I really needed that laugh this morning

68 I taught my dog to take a Barry on command.

69 Posted by: FireHorse at January 13, 2011 11:01 AM (sWynj)

Ah, but you, yourself, are violating your own rules.  To whit:
 * 'major' - as in, a Military rank
 * 'master' - as in "Master and Commander" a reference to a Ship's Captain
 * 'command' - again with the martial term
 * 'in the tank' - tanks are military vehicles which are only good for war.

Denounce thyself.

70 Really?   What does their dog do?
[rimshot!]

71 I just wrote the local am news station and asked them to correct the "crowd leaped to its feet when Obama brought news of the eyes opening" meme.  They won't feel any shame, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be called on the shameless reading of the AP's agenda.

72

Denounce thyself.

I do. I denounce myself, and I shall wear my shame for the rest of the day.

(Good catches, though -- but you missed a few.)

73 Instead of teaching my dog to roll over and play dead, I tell him 'Bang!', and he rolls on his back and dies. My (commie loser liberal) humorless in-laws saw me do this and tut-tutted 'Oh, that is so violent.' So now, when these idiots are around, I tell the dog 'I'll be Oswald, you be Kennedy. Bang!' and he rolls over and plays dead. Much better. It's always been a mark of socialists to have no discernible sense of humor, which makes them all the more annoying and all the more fun to fuck with.

74 Posted by: FireHorse at January 13, 2011 11:13 AM (sWynj)

It was the short list.

75 for the rest of the day.
A 'rest'? Like an arquebusier's 'fork rest' or 'gun rest'?

Baby killer.

Denounce yourself yet again.

76

The Finns. Ah, yes. Yet another excuse to link my favorite blog posting about Finland. I think this makes it about the 6th or 7th time I've linked this here at the HQ.

The Anarchangel: Finland - Be Afraid. Be VERY Afraid

77 "Speak like Obama!" "Umm, umm, umm..."

78

Pat Buchanan to denounce anti-Hitler dogs in 3...2....1....

79

Why for does the dog wear glasses?

80 Nazis Were Humorless Control Freaks You mean, sort of like Politically Correct Liberals? Go figure.

81

It was the short list.

Yeah, thought I'd make a game of it.

The one I'm least ashamed of is "column" at the end, also an element of matial verbiage. (Crap! I forgot element.) I can just picture some clueless idiot at the WaPo saying, "Did you see my column? I'm starting a crusade against military terms in everyday language! Read my column!!"

82 don't forget, the first American comic to make fun of Hitler in a movie was... Moe Howard...

83

OT but it relates to humorless assholes

Even if humans stop producing excess carbon dioxide in 2100, the lingering effects of global warming could span the next millennia. The results? By the year 3000, global warming would be more than a hot topic - the West Antarctic ice sheet could collapse, and global sea levels would rise by about 13 feet (4 meters), according to a new study.

Using a computer model, researchers looked at two scenarios - an end to humans' industrial carbon dioxide emissions by 2010 and by 2100 - stretched out to the year 3000.

 

Ohhh noes!!!! We're all doomed by a make believe catastrophe. Quick everyone stop breathing to save Gaia

84

Yeah, thought I'd make a game of it.

Yes, and you showed a totally major command of it, dude.

85

Antoer reason he's one of the ten greatest men of all time.

I do. I would surrender, but isn't that a military term, too?

88 quoting Marty Feldman:   "Frau Blucher!"

The Warmist models have a failure rate of 100% in the near term, so now they predict the year 3000.  Hey, nobody can disprove that, yet. 

91 "...This is why parody and mockery are the finest political weapons* ever devised...."

Alinsky Rule 5, Bitchez!

92

I take offense at the notion that Finland was a "Nazi-friendly" country during WWII. They were in a notably difficult position between the Nazis and the Commies, and the reluctant alliance with the Nazis was the only way to maintain their independence.

They were also pretty much the only Axis-allied/occupied nation to tell the Nazis to fuck off when ordered to round up their Jews for extermination.

93 don't forget, the first American comic to make fun of Hitler in a movie was... Moe Howard...

Though it didn't call out Hitler specifically. Duck Soup (1933) by the Marx Brothers did piss off Hitler and Mossolini off enough they both banned the movie

94

I take offense at the notion that Finland was a "Nazi-friendly" country during WWII.

History puts Finland on the Axis side of WWII, officially.

History also judges Finland favorably for the reason you mentioned. Lithuania was also in a tought spot in '41, but the Lithuanians behaved quite differently.

95

They're worried about something that might happen 990 years from now? Some perspective is called for here. After all, everyone knows that in 990 years we'll all be long dead from Red Dye No. 2, flouridated water, second hand smoke,  mercury preservatives in vaccines, nuclear winter and alar-covered apples.

Want to impress me?  Run the model backwards to 1000AD and tell me if it predicts temps from ice cores (which, of course, they've never been able to do)....until then, shut the hell up.

97 guess Drew and Gabe aren't up for a fight... me, i'm always up for a fight.

98 Just think about how enormous the Nazi enforcement and thought-control regime was, to pay attention to a freaking dog in Finland.  I find this story chilling rather than amusing. 

99 IIRC, didn't General von Manstein claim, in his autobiography, that his dog would raise its front paw on command.

100

Run the model backwards to 1000AD and tell me if it predicts temps from ice cores .... 

Sure -- 1000AD -- the year gunpowder was invented. Nice use of code word.

101

I was reading an excellent book about the battle of Stalingrad some time last year.  Turns out that one of the higher-up German generals took his dog to war and had taught it the same trick - a lifted paw "heil" whenever someone would say "Heil Hitler."  Sorry - I forget which one.  It was mildly scandalous, but nobody really dared do anything about it.  It pays to be important...

I love that post - it explains a lot about me and my family.  I'm a 2nd generation Finn.  My father and grandfather traveled there several years ago, and my grandpa's favorite picture from the trip was of a tiny Swedish flag planted in a pile of dogshit on a Helsinki sidewalk.  Heh. 

105

This is why parody and mockery are the finest political weapons* ever devised. It is very hard to publicly prosecute a joker without making an ass of yourself in the process.

Very true.  Of course, I think that's why most Leftists just take the jokers out back and put a bullet in them.  No messy public disclosures that way.  They don't much care for that whole "rule of law" thing.

106

Hmmm, ruin the guy and his business over a sieg heiling dog...kinda reminds me of this plumber I knew a long time ago...

 

It is true that lack of humor (true humor -- that can mock oneself as easily and well as mocking others) is distinctly lacking in hard core ideologues.  I use it as a way to base my opinions of some of my acquaintences (in the humanities most people identify as "liberal"...but if they can make fun of themselves and laugh at jokes made on them, then likely they are liberal-liberals, not lefties, and are thus infinitely more easy to live with and pleasant to be around).

 

My dad had a captain who was an obnoxious, humorless little martinet: they had a talent show for the K9s and handlers...my dad had taught his dog to salute (among other tricks), but the "salute" changed according to the rank my dad shouted out: the "salute" for a captain?  Hiking his leg.  The captain was not amused.

109 Inside a jewellery crafting class, you will have a teacher which could teach you getting such things as bead knotting and closing crimps done right. Out of your teacher, you may also learn many different associated with Thomas and Sabo, along with some tips in picking out your own personal designs and in all probability in setting up your own jewellery shop. One more apparent benifit of attending a category is that you arrive at share your learning experience with all the other people who are taking the class along with you. If you are a social particular person,Tom Sabo this chance for interaction with your peers can be quite a useful thing. You may also network with these once you establish Thomas Sabo Jewellery creating company in the foreseeable future.
