Biden: Taliban Not U.S. Enemy 'Per Se'

I could have changed that headline to a snappy funny snark one, but Biden brings his own snark. No need.

Who gets hash browns from McDonnellÂ’s anyway?

Daily Caller asks why younger voters are all in for Ron Paul and then dances all over the obvious answer

Hey you fraking idiot look, there is a 200 ton elephant over there smoking dope and shitting on the couch.

7 Got my HTC smartphone. Thing kicks ass and didn't cost me a dime, and provides the added bonus of not implying Apple fanboy status towards myself.

8

Good joke but incorrect

The SOB is not stupid or incompetent. That premise assumes he actually wants to make things better.

This is the kind of shit that Wall Mart has to put up with in local and national papers

Why are these papers so dead set against Wall Mart?  Because Democrats are against Wall Mart is why. So why are Democrats against Wall Mart? Because big labor is against Wall Mart is why. And they are Wall Mart h8ters because the workers of Wall Mart refuse to embrace the suck known as unions. But what never ceases to surprise me is why this paper is able to sell a single issue in SC.

Income tax chart-fu from Heritage

I am against this tax plan for two major reasons: (1) It is too high and (2) it is not flat as advertised. (probably because it is not flat)  If we are going to go through the shit to make a flat tax, lets make it a flat tax.

National Geographic photo contest finals

Some of these are good, some are PC crap.

And finally a remark with no link regarding Fox. They are making a big deal on asking Mutt a “tough question” on whether or not Barky is a “socialist”.  Hey you idiots why not ask Mutt if HE is a socialist? Hint: He is.   Obama is a Communist. But I doubt if you people at Faux News know the difference between a Socialist and a Communist.

Nevada has only sold 10 tickets to its bowl game. Dude.

LOL, well Gabe, how many tickets did the Idaho Potato Bowl sell?

17 Hope you feel better, Vic. I only know how my dad felt going through the poisoning and it wasn't pretty. My prayers are with you.

As for the Wal-Mart story, they ran another Wal-Mart bashing in the NY Daily News yesterday because they're still attempting to put one in Harlem. All the teeth gnashing about how the shitty bodegas that would be put out of business, not a mention about the low, low prices the residents of Harlem would be able to enjoy. Not that I care that much, seeing how I pay the wages for the average Harlem layabout, I could care less that they don't have a place to go to get good savings, but of course that's not the angle the Daily News takes.

18 Hope you feel better, Vic. I only know how my dad felt going through the poisoning and it wasn't pretty. My prayers are with you.

LOL, my problem today is not from the chemo. I thought I was ready for a "rocker day" yesterday. Had to drink my bourbon through a straw because the ice burned my lips. But thanks.

As for the Wal-Mart story, they ran another Wal-Mart bashing in the NY Daily News yesterday because they're still attempting to put one in Harlem.

Aren't these local papers the shit?  Why are they all in the tank for Dems and unions. Wall Mart in Harlem or downtown Columbia would be a huge boon to minorities but the assholes cow-tow to the unions and ignore the good for the minorities. Which poses another question. 

Why do minorities continue to work on the Democrat plantation despite the fact that the Dems regularly kill them and take them for granted?

19 Read the article, Gabe. Apple did not get HTC phones banned. They got a ruling that said HTC must remove the feature, a minor one, by a deadline next year or risk having them banned. Seems to me Apple doesn't like competition, and if somebody today were to make an ad suggesting they're needing to have their 1984ish attitude smashed, it would hit home.

20 I don't know the difference between a socialist or a communist. Both are just euphemisms for statist misery. I really don't give a shit what superficial differences are purported to exist. It's like having a choice to drive a Chevy or a Caviler. You know either experience will suck, perhaps in overlapping ways. Better to turn around and get yourself a F-350, son.

Good Morning Morons. Its Tuesday December 20^th and I feel like shit.

Which qualifies you, Vic, for a free membership in the Curmudgeon's Union in your area. This valuable promotion is only available for a limited time to a few select people who display the proper and necessary life-experience and overall philosophical outlook befitting a Curmudgeon, regardless of cause.

As a member, you'll receive many benefits, such as a "Walter" doll from the Jeff Dunham Collection, a copy of Gran Torino, along with a signed page from the script of the original movie "Grumpy Old Men."

We hope you take full advantage of your membership in the CU.

Welcome. Now, get off my lawn.

22 LOL, BB I already have the Grand Torino DVD and watch it often. Can I trade that for a bottle of cheap bourbon?

23

All seriousness aside, I hope you feel better soon, Vic.

We need all the Morons we can get. Curmudgeons too.

24

Hi Vic, I've momentarily surfaced from my comfortable lurking to wish you all the best, hope you feel better too as the day wears on...

And I know you are into saying Happy Holidays in the US but here Down Under, Merry Christmas is still acceptable - so Merry Christmas Vic to you and your family and best wishes especially to you on your recovery

It's after 11pm here and I should be baking some promised Christmas cookies but here I am lurking instead....

 

25 That's funny.. the current issue of National Geographic shows a different picture as the winner!

26 And I know you are into saying Happy Holidays in the US but here Down Under, Merry Christmas is still acceptable - so Merry Christmas Vic to you and your family and best wishes especially to you on your recovery

Thanks aussie, us Morons here refuse to kow-tow to the PC police and the "happy holidays" crowd. We are ALL on the Merry Christmas boat. And that includes the "moderates".

So aussie Merry Christmas from Vic and family from South Carolina, USA.

27

Can I trade that for a bottle of cheap bourbon?

Um, all I have for a trade is this half-empty bottle of Valu-Rite. Hope you don't mind the ring of varnish around the base, I managed to pry it off the coffee table right just before it melted into the wood last night after some of it spilled down the side.

Valu-Rite, it's not just for breakfast anymore.

28 J.C. Watts on Fox just endorsed Eye of Newt

29 Best wishes Vic- the HQ wouldn't be the same without your contributions.

30 OK, 'rons 'n 'ettes, I'm off to the salt mine once more. Vic, be well and keep the porch rocker warm (and take a sip for me, as I'll take one for you tonight). Greetings to all our Aussie Morons, and a Merry Christmas to you all.

31 Valu-Rite, it's not just for breakfast anymore.

LOL, can't do that today. Planning on going to a big dinner with wifey tomorrow for our 30th anniversary. Wouldn't do to feel like shit tomorrow.

And speaking of breakfast, need to go make some now that news is posted.

32 Eugene Robinson just accused Mitt of "Dancing on Kim's grave" because he called for regime change.. And then adds, "We all want regime change."

I clicked back to FOX.

33 You know I was just thinking.

Ron Paul taking the lead (in some polls at least) in Iowa is the BEST thing that could have happened to Newt.

Now for the next 2 weeks, the long knives will be out for Paul trying to paint him as nutty and extreme (not hard to do).  I PROMISE you, the RNC and TPTB in Iowa do not want Paul to win Iowa.

So for the next two weeks Paul gets the media enema and Newt comes out looking quite reasonable and intelligent by comparison.  Also, I believe that some Newt voters who have shifted to Perry and Bachmann may come back to Newt because they don't want to split their votes and give Paul the win.

IMHO, this whole thing is a perfect setup for a Newt win in Iowa.

39 5 DC quotes members of the Republican "Establishment" who say there is no Republican Establishment.

Posted by: Vic at December 20, 2011 07:01 AM (YdQQY)

well yeah, I think it's silly to say that there is "no establishment"

HOWEVER....

there is a difference between the "establishment" that actually exists, and the "establishment" that exists only in the fevered imaginations of those who are prone to paranoia and believing in conspiracies

to hear some on our side talk, "the establishment" is like some CIA special ops unit that goes into Republican voters' homes in the dead of night and brainwashes them into supporting Mitt Romney, or something

I think the power of "the establishment" is vastly overstated; moreover IMO it is just often used as an excuse for why someone's preferred candidate is not doing as well as they would like ("what?  Huntsman is only polling at 1%?  It can't be because Huntsman is flawed, oh no no, it's.... ESTABLISHMENT!!!)

40 Best wishes, Vic...hope you get to feeling better.

41 I PROMISE you, the RNC and TPTB in Iowa do not want Paul to win Iowa. I think the RNC wants Paul to win. Iowa PTB probably not. A Paul win will discredit their caucus process. Iowa will be discounted next time around.

42 Ooh, I know! Let's have Newt do a commercial where he sits on a couch with a naked Ron Paul. Has Obama left for Hawaii yet?

How about "capitalist-flavored statist"? He seems to want a slightly-more efficient but just large federal government as we have now.

None of them are a pure (or even close) this or that...in practice, Obama isn't a Marxist any more than Stalin was. They're both fascists who happen to use the terminology and buzz words of Marxism. There are socialist-flavored fascists and Marxist-flavored ones, but they all want all the power they can get their grubby little hands on which makes them fascists in reality. It's not got a thing to do with "workers of the world unite"...it's always been "elitist pricks of the world unite and rule the masses".

44 Technology will destroy our species. It will happen quicker than you think, because of the exponentially accelerating rate of technological process. It may be a very enjoyable time to live, being born now, but it should be a truncated one.

47 oh and in local news here in NW MO...
apparently the issue of the day is whether texting while driving should be a "primary offense", i.e., if the police should be able to pull you over based on that alone, and not just for speeding or something

and the idiot man-on-the-street interviews for those in favor, every single one, are the same: "yes, because it will SAVE LIVES".  Are people incapable of understanding that giving police the power to pull you over for texting will not necessarily save any lives, but will in fact lead to more hassle and more bogus tickets?  urgh it irritates me that most people have no common sense anymore

48 …but it should be a truncated one. I sincerely hope *yours* is, troll.

Everything he's proposed - especially his seeming inability to say for certain he'll get rid of Obamacare - is tinkering around the edges of the bloated federal government. I've not seen anything from him that leads me to think he'd do anything better than "slow the growth" of the thing. As far as I'm concerned, any politician who is okay with the size of government we have today, with all the facets of what should be our private lives that it intrudes into, is a statist. Mitt says all the right things about free markets and capitalism, etc., but he seems to be okay with the federal government sucking up all the daylight in this country.

58

Thanks Vic - yes I have complete faith in all Morons to shove PC crap to where it belongs!

 

59 "What I've seen the last 3 or 4 decades looks more like devolution than evolution to me."

Christianity was the force most responsible for stopping biological evolution, with its emphasis on valuing all life infinitely. Now, coupled with medical technology, biological devolution is increasing.

But it doesn't matter. Our species is serving its purpose: We are developing artificial intelligences, nanotechnology, and biological/neurological hybrids. This exponentially increasing technology is the next form of evolution, and it will vastly outstrip biological evolution.

It took 2 billion years to move from single-celled to multi-celled organisms. Since the Cambrian explosion of animals with brains, intelligence has been increasing, and increased rapidly in the primate family and specifically in the hominid line.

It took 14 years to move from PC to Internet. You see rapid exponential growth of technology all around us. Right now, our AI is quite limited and brittle, applied to only narrow, but expanding, areas. Soon, with exponential growth, it will become massively more intelligent than us, eventually supplanting us.

Biological evolution is giving way to technological evolution. This will probably kill children born today - and almost certainly their children ... if not ours, already living.

62 Hey, remember all the media outrage when the museum in Baghdad was supposedly "looted" during the Iraq War? Where's the outcry here? I haven't seen one U.S. Media outlet cover this story. From the UK's The Guardian: Volunteers in white lab coats, surgical gloves and masks stood on the back of a pickup truck along the banks of the Nile in Cairo, rummaging through stacks of rare 200-year-old manuscripts that were little more than charcoal debris. The volunteers, ranging from academic experts to appalled citizens, have spent the past two days trying to salvage what's left of some 192,000 books, journals and writings, casualties of Egypt's latest bout of violence. The Institute of Egypt, a research centre set up by Napoleon Bonaparte during France's invasion in the late 18th century, caught fire during clashes between protesters and Egypt's military over the weekend. It was home to a treasure trove of writings, most notably the handwritten 24-volume Description de l'Egypte, which began during the 1798-1801 French occupation. It includes 20 years of observations by more than 150 French scholars and scientists, was one of the most comprehensive descriptions of Egypt's monuments, its ancient civilisation and contemporary life at the time. It is probably now burned beyond repair. Its home, the two-storey historic institute near Tahrir Square, is now in danger of collapsing after the roof caved in. "The burning of such a rich building means a large part of Egyptian history has ended," the director of the institute, Mohammed al-Sharbouni, said at the weekend. Al-Sharbouni said most of the contents were destroyed in the fire that raged for more than 12 hours on Saturday. Firefighters flooded the building with water, adding to the damage.

See here is the problem.  It is these ridiculous attacks on Mitt that make me want to support him more, not less.  He isn't a socialist.  He isn't a statist.  He is a "turnaround" guy, a competent manager.  He does not have a 100% ACU rating, for sure.  That is not the reason to vote for him.  The reason to vote for him is if you value competent management more than perfect ideological agreement on every single issue.   I think Mitt will shrink the size of government because it is patently and obviously clear that this is what has to happen.  I don't think he will do it for some ideological reason, true - I think he will do it for a pragmatic reason.  I guess that is not good enough for the Mitt haters though.

Oh and FTR as I posted last night on the Perry thread, I am somewhere around 55-45 Romney/Perry support right about now.  So I'm not 100% sold on Mitt.  I just don't think he is the Devil.

The guy said we can't let Social Security become a "Perry Scheme" and spent a month scare-mongering seniors that Perry was going to try to slash their benefits.  That doesn't indicate to me he's willing to take a realistic look at entitlements.

He is a "turnaround" guy, a competent manager

He didn't turnaround MA.  He took over from a line of Republican governors and did about as good as they did.  He would have been crushed if he tried to run again, which he had no intention of doing anyways.

I think Mitt will shrink the size of government because it is patently and obviously clear that this is what has to happen.

Or, Mitt will attempt pander his ass off to get through two terms.  He's a resume checker, just like Soetero.  You think he gave a shit about MA?  He checked the checkbox he'd run a state, then left it.  Apres Mitt, les Deval.

I don't think he's the devil either, but I also don't think he's the sort...has the mindset? philosophy? determination?...to take on the drastic changes that have to be made to get us turned around again. If the size of government shrinks under a President Romney, I think he'll be dragged kicking and screaming into going along with it. With - hopefully - a Republican Congress doing the dragging, I'm not sure anything will get done, given the record of the GOP in Congress on such things. You don't know where I'm getting the idea that he's a statist? Where in the world are you getting the impression that he'd chop the federal goverment down to size? This is a guy who thinks it's just fine that the federal government can coerce an individual into buying health insurance, but he's going to decrease the federal interference in our lives once he's president? Is it this notion that it "has to happen"? Folks in charge of printing money might not agree with us on that and just keep spending and printing more.

That said, I suppose it's more an impression with me re: Mitt than any one thing he's said (well, other than refusing to dump Obama/Romneycare into the dustbin of history where it belongs), but he just exudes status quo to me. (shrug) But yes, I'll still vote for him if he's the nominee, but surely not in the primary if I have a choice left by early March.

The MSM continue to exhibit their bias even on simple real news stories.  Egypt actually "had" rare unbelievable antiquities in large quantities and was a historical treasure trove.  But since the people of simple muslim faith "liberated" Egypt, none dare criticize the aftermath.  Not like Iraq at all.

83 Yes Romney is a socialist, so is about half of the Republican party.

First off you have to define "socialism" in a manner more aligned with the original definition and not the one foisted on us by the leftest media. Socialism is NOT the same thing as Communism. The leftists called it that to deflect attention from themselves because socialism has a bad rep.

Socialism was originally defined by Marx (who invented the term) as an intermediate step between capitalism and communism. Socialism simply is a means of economic policy by a government to use public money raised through taxes to implement social programs to benefit a segment of the population (usually low income).  The United States is riff with these kinds of programs that started finding their way into government in the early 1900s.

Communism is a means of economic control in which the government owns the means of production of goods and services and there is no right to "private property". The United States is rapidly marching into that state as fast as the Democrats can push it.

Meanwhile the other bugaboo, Fascism, is similar to Communism except that the government does not own the means of production or private property, it simply controls them through government regulation.  We have been there since the mid 60s.

85 You know, people may overstate the influence of "The Establishment," and they're not always wrong, but please don't anybody try to suggest that they aren't full in for Romney. Are they the reason he's probably going to win? Not entirely, but it's a big part of it. And yeah, I do think there was a memo that got sent out recently telling various establishment types it was time to endorse him. A memo, or whatever they use to communicate. Could be smoke signals for all I know.

86 @83..  remember at the time all the on-the -ground evidence was positive in large measure; greated as liberators in vast swaths of the country.. the MSM was incredulous that Bush might actually benefit from the war and immediately blew every story negative possible including the museum tragedy....   Egypt is lost... Barry and the left could care less... they allowed it... it's Jimmah Carter all over again..  the middle east will suffer the consiquences for years to come... and we watched it all and knew it was bad...    and the MSM was so excited for Barry....

87 I really believe that Newt is due for a last minute surge in Iowa as people who have moved to Perry and Bachmann see that their votes will be wasted and seek to defeat Paul.

Well, Perry did call SS an unconstitutional Ponzi scheme.  I don't approve of Romney's scaremongering, no, but I do think it's fair to point out what Perry's view of the matter is.

He didn't turnaround MA.

What would you have considered a "turnaround" for MA?

You think he gave a shit about MA?

98 Whys does San Francisco need a new stadium when we have all of this wonderful green technology available to provide a clean, sustainable environment? 

Please. Show us, and the world, how wonderful, modern, and efficient green energy can be by retrofitting Candlestick Park with the latest and greatest green tech.  And to demarcate this momentous occasion from the past, might I also suggest updating the name of the stadium from Candlestick Park to Fuckstick Park?

99 runningrn's post at 8:08 am reminds me of how often I think that it's time to start evacuating all the great western art from Europe before night falls forever for them.  The people made their own beds, but we do need to rescue the art, daVinci, Rembrandt, Rodin, Titian, the list is endless.

I think the reason so few Nevada fans are going to Hawaii for the bowl game is that they went to the same bowl two years ago.  Christmas in Hawaii might be kinda cool once, but not every frickin year.  Stupid (or more likely, greedy) of the school to acceot that bid.

102 Well, Perry did call SS an unconstitutional Ponzi scheme.  I don't approve of Romney's scaremongering, no, but I do think it's fair to point out what Perry's view of the matter is.

Is Perry wrong?  Is it not a ponzi scheme?

103 Romney has one huge problem:  Masscare.  It hangs around his neck like a millstone.  The sad part is that he could have deflected it, even turned it to a positive.  "What we did looked good on paper, but it didn't work out in reality.  It didn't do what we thought it would - lower costs, cover the uncovered, etc, and it did a whole host of things we didn't foresee.  Masscare is the poster child for unintended consequences and so is Obamacare.  If it didn't work on the state level it has no chance on the national level."  Had he said something along those lines he would be the clear front runner from the beginning and Perry most likely never would have entered the race.  That he won't disavow Masscare, and recently started talking about "keeping the good" parts of Obamacare is one reason people like me are uneasy about him.

104 Well, Perry did call SS an unconstitutional Ponzi scheme.  I don't approve of Romney's scaremongering, no, but I do think it's fair to point out what Perry's view of the matter is.

Except he didn't point out Perry's view.  Perry explicitly said he wasn't going to target current seniors.  Exactly ten seconds later in the debate, Romney said Perry was going to target seniors.  That should speak volumes about the man.

What would you have considered a "turnaround" for MA?

MA's biggest problem is massive corruption.  Mitt was never going to win that one.  And yet, tackling entitlements will be harder than dealing with the MA legislature.  Is Mitt up to the task?  Does he possess the political fortitude to touch something so radioactive as entitlements?

His screeds against Perry don't fill me with much confidence.

Well yes I do think he did, and still does.   I'm not that cynical.

Apres Mitt, Les Deval.  And Mitt doesn't seem to care to much about that.

118 Where in the world are you getting the impression that he'd chop the federal goverment down to size? This is a guy who thinks it's just fine that the federal government can coerce an individual into buying health insurance, but he's going to decrease the federal interference in our lives once he's president?

See, this is what I'm referring to.

You want to reduce the size of government so as to decrease federal interference in your life.  I understand that.  I want that for myself too, frankly. 

I think Romney would decrease the size of government, but perhaps not due *solely* out of a desire to reduce federal interference in people's lives.  I think his major motivation would be because it is clearly and obviously the correct thing to do from a managerial standpoint.  Would you disagree with that?

But because he wouldn't want to reduce government from a purely ideological or philosophical basis, from that you take away the message that somehow Romney is "okay" with the size of the government we have now, or that he wants to *increase* government?  That is what I don't get.  That is where I think the Mitt-haters jump the shark in their criticism of Mitt.

And no I don't think it is appropriate to go scare seniors on the issue, but he does raise an important point.

You want to reduce the size of government so as to decrease federal interference in your life.  I understand that.  I want that for myself too, frankly. 

Not for that reason only. We also can't afford it, unless we're ready for the USA to be a banana republic or worse for the foreseeable future. We already have the right president in place for that...Hugo Chavez, North.

I think Romney would decrease the size of government, but perhaps not due *solely* out of a desire to reduce federal interference in people's lives.  I think his major motivation would be because it is clearly and obviously the correct thing to do from a managerial standpoint.  Would you disagree with that?

I think his econ plan and his record and his temperament all point to tinkering around the edges...at best. The problem is too big for tinkering and some streamling or "synergies created" if you want to use corporate takeover terminology to fix. Best case, if we even got the best case, he'll slow the growth, maybe.

But because he wouldn't want to reduce government from a purely ideological or philosophical basis, from that you take away the message that somehow Romney is "okay" with the size of the government we have now, or that he wants to *increase* government?  That is what I don't get.  That is where I think the Mitt-haters jump the shark in their criticism of Mitt.

How do you get the message from anything he's said that he'd drastically cut anything? When he can't even bring himself to admit that Obama/Romneycare was a bad (and budget-busting) idea? What is he doing to cut if he won't even agree that one needs cutting? Sounds to me a lot like you're taking "well, I think things will have to be cut drastically" and projecting that onto Romney as "well, of course he'll have to cut drastically after he's elected because that what a good manager would do." When have things ever worked that way in DC?

154

i'll say this, if Romney wins the nod and wins the Presidency he holds the fate of the republican party in his hands. do what must be done and get re-elected and known as one of our best Presidents, fuck up and not only do you invite a 3rd party but the Republican party will probably start to dissolve

156 If Perry thinks it's unconstitutional, doesn't that mean Perry would modify, or "touch", SS for current seniors, so as to make it into whatever Perry thinks would be constitutional? 

I would argue that someone could think something is unconstitutional but recognize that it can't be sunset right away, particularly a program that many people planned around.  I think you are straining to justify the unjustifiable on Mitt's part.

Perry explicitly said he wouldn't.  To believe otherwise requires you cast aspersions on Perry's motives.  Which is fine, but don't get upset when people do it to Romney.

That is what I took away from Romney's "Perry Scheme" jab.

I took away that Mitt was being a transparent scare-monger.

My sister and I recently won a title battle over my parents house...long story, won't bore you with the details.  The title was in someone else's name last year and they didn't pay the property taxes.  Per a court order the title is back in our name but penalties and interest have accrued from last year's back taxes.  Are we responsible for the P & I?

I know the taxes go with the property, not the owner but we couldn't have paid the taxes last year even if we wanted to....we were not the owners of record of the property.

The house is in Missouri....if that's pertinent.
