How To Make a Modern Movie Poster

It's easy. You just need an actor and the four elements.

And then you have this one for the upcoming Man of Steel movie.

Clearly somebody screwed up - can you spot what got left out?

Do You Recognize This Man?

He attacked and beat Stephen Crowder today in Michigan. That's a union shirt he's wearing.

The Tumor

In the 1,420 days since he took the oath of office, the federal government has daily hired on average 101 new employees. Every day. Seven days a week. All 202 weeks. That makes 143,000 more federal workers than when Obama talked forever on that cold day in January of 2009.

"Did the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) Lead to Risky Lending?"

Abstract:

Yes, it did. We use exogenous variation in banks' incentives to conform to the standards of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) around regulatory exam dates to trace out the effect of the CRA on lending activity. Our empirical strategy compares lending behavior of banks undergoing CRA exams within a given census tract in a given month to the behavior of banks operating in the same census tract-month that do not face these exams. We find that adherence to the act led to riskier lending by banks: in the six quarters surrounding the CRA exams lending is elevated on average by about 5 percent every quarter and loans in these quarters default by about 15 percent more often. These patterns are accentuated in CRA-eligible census tracts and are concentrated among large banks. The effects are strongest during the time period when the market for private securitization was booming.

I know this is an article of faith on the right but as intellectual conservatives we should seek out actual evidence for what we believe or consider the possibility that it's not true.

Fox News Viewers Have An Average IQ of 80

So claims a study from a 'conservative' group:

The results of a 4 year study show that Americans who obtain their news from Fox News channel have an average IQ of 80, which represents a 20 point deficit when compared to the U.S. national average of 100. IQ, or intelligence quotient, is the international standard of assessing intelligence.

Researchers at The Intelligence Institute, a conservative non-profit group, tested 5,000 people using a series of tests that measure everything from cognitive aptitude to common sense and found that people who identified themselves as Fox News viewers and 'conservative' had, on average, significantly lower intelligent quotients. Fox Viewers represented 2,650 members of the test group.

Well Charlie Martin tracked down the people behind it and positively demolishes their credibility:

So there you have it. A four-year study sparked by the outcome of the recent election, from an institution that's admittedly a fake, from a company that won't identify itself, supposedly funded by a Republican PAC trying to "cut off" the Tea Party like a cancer, using a sample that was chosen with a particular result in mind, with a contact number that's an anonymous free Google Voice number.

It's almost certainly a hoax but of course HuffPo and other lefty bloggers immediately ran with it - because too damn good to check!

Always a Shameless Asshole

Dan Rather, the Zapruder film, and the long history of general MSM treachery:

Dan Rather, a very young Dan Rather, whose career was about to be minted, was CBS's Dallas bureau chief at the time. He called New York, asked for Don Hewitt, and told him that "a guy named Zapruder was supposed to have film of the assassination and was going to put it up for sale." Exactly how interested was Walter Cronkite's evening news program? Hewitt, the show's executive producer-and the long-time producer of 60 Minutes-insisted it was very interested, and quickly decided the best approach would require a bit of, well, courage.

"In my desire to get a hold of what was probably the most dramatic piece of news footage ever shot," Hewett wrote, "I told Rather to go to Zapruder's house, sock him in the jaw, take his film to our affiliate in Dallas, copy it onto videotape, and let the CBS lawyers decide whether it could be sold or whether it was in the public domain. And then take the film back to Zapruder's house and give it back to him. That way, the only thing they could get him for was assault because he would have returned Zapruder's property. Rather said, 'Great idea. I'll do it.'

I wish my unborn baby wasn't a beastly boy!

A mom-to-be's lament:

Boys are gross; they attack their siblings with sticks, are obsessed with toilets, casually murder local wildlife and turn into disgusting teenage boys and then boring, selfish men.

And then there are the not-so-attractive boyish traits. Luckily these days we have ritalin and estrogen gels to treat children unlucky enough to be born without a second X chromosome.

Science You Can Use

Australia's Department of Agriculture has announced that its researchers have made a breakthrough that will send shockwaves across beach resorts and tiki-themed restaurants around the world. Through careful breeding they've managed to produce a sweet pineapple that also tastes like coconut, reducing future Pina Colada recipes to just two ingredients.

The new breed of fruit, known as the AusFestival pineapple, has actually been in development for over a decade.

You're being blamed for every bit of violence commited in America.

The MSM is ignoring violence agsinst you.

The White House is pulling a Schultz about violence commited against you.

I think I'm seeing a trend, here.

52 It does amazes me how well the State Media controls the narrative.

The "redlining" scare of the 90s and its relation to the Fannie Mae collapse being a prime case in point.

In the 90s, one of the biggest economic/political talking points was whether banks were refusing to loan enough money to risky borrowers. The right claimed this was a stupid argument to be having, the left argued that this showed the banks were racist.

Well Clinton, and Obama as a low level flunkie, won.

And 10 years later we had the housing bubble burst.

It would be as if 10 years from today the federal debt bubble burst and the Left argued it was because "the teabaggers refused to cut spending."

I was a sub prime underwriter when Clinton was in office. I was working at a major bank when bush won. Bush was warning congress.. right after he was sworn in. I bought sub prime mortgages for the bank. We did nothing crazy .. just high loans to value loans for good credit. Bush sent Greenspan to congress in 2005. based on that testimony.. the bank closed my division. They sold any new loans (required by LAW to provide sub prime loans) to Citibank.

Hey 'Rons- fun with liberals:

Imagine a corporation that produces a commodity called Â“hammersÂ”. This corporation intimidates competitors so that nobody else can produce hammers. The corporation lobbies the government and bribes councilmen for rules making it harder for others to produce hammers. The corporation sends strong-arm men to beat up those who try to use hammers from any other source. Once the corporation has a monopoly on the production and price of hammers, they create an artificial shortage and hike the price of hammers sky-high. The CEO makes an obscenely high salary. People who need hammers can no longer afford them and have to do without. Oh, and the hammers produced by the corporation are of poor quality and donÂ’t work very well.

I would decry this as an immoral form of crony capitalism at its worst. Certainly our Â‘pearl-clutchingÂ’ friends on the left would agree and smirk smugly about Â“evil corporationsÂ”.

Now letÂ’s consider the same paragraph with a couple of simple changes:

Imagine a union that produces a commodity called Â“workersÂ”. This union intimidates competitors so that nobody else can produce workers. The union lobbies the government and bribes councilmen for rules making it harder for others to produce workers. The union sends strong-arm men to beat up those who try to use workers from any other source. Once the union has a monopoly on the production and price of workers, they create an artificial shortage and hike the price of workerssky-high. The union president makes an obscenely high salary. People who need workerscan no longer afford them and have to do without. Oh, and the workersproduced by the union are of poor quality and donÂ’t work very well.

I would decry this as an immoral form of coercion at its worst. However our Â‘pearl-clutchingÂ’ friends on the left would hail it as a noble victory in the ongoing struggle of the downtrodden proletariat.

But there is no moral difference between the two! The irony, it burns! And the cognition is dissonant!

Prior to the conquest by Rome, Egypt was one of the most advanced states in the world. And under the Byzantines it was a major center of culture and theology.

The talk of "redlining" started in the 1960's and when the Democrats finally got back in the White House (Skippy Carter), the CRA was enacted.

During the '80's, Reagan and then Bush did not pursue it vigorously, but there was also the Savings and Loan crisis, with many failed banks (savings and loans, too) because of poor or underperforming home mortgages.

Then the Clinton administration decided that CRA was the hammer to hit the banks recovering from the same home real estate crisis in the 80's. So yeah, CRA really got rolling in the Roaring 90's.

And today, most banks are NOT in the business of originating home loans, and there are a lot fewer banks, and several that are "too big to fail". Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are originating loans and then selling them to banks. And Freddie and Fannie are losing billions. Billions of our dollars. There is nothing quite like capital destruction to tell you that the maniacs are in charge of the asylum.

Another big win for government central planning, and a big loss for the rest of us.

Germany is an interesting case study.

Traditionally the left engages in street theater and uses this destabilization to institution an authoritarian or totalitarian regime. The average man will support anything to keep anarchy away.

In Germany in the interwar period they failed because the heretical National Socialists not only equaled the heterodox International Socialists in the streets...they bested them. The German left that didn't join the National Socialists...and most of them did...ended up being "liquidated" instead of their opponents as was normally the case.

I don't agree. When Fat Tony took his off-balance Humpty Dumpty swings at Crowder, other unions members immediately stopped him. Same thing happened the second time Crowder was assaulted, and the State Troopers then came in and lathered some union heads with their nightsticks.

The union goons were tearing down an AFP tent with people still inside. It's like the Republican poll judges meekly leaving in Chicago when they were thrown out by the Democrats during the election.

When do conservatives start fighting back with fists and feet? The union members were endangering the lives of people in the tent. A single punch to Fat Tony's solar plexus or a couple of open palms on his ears, and he'd go down for the count and the other hogs would trundle away.

165 Yep. OTOH, it has been 8 years now since the Republicans have put up a fight on anything.

Exactly. It's the Karl Rove philosophy of never defending yourself, out of the terror of appearing too mean and scary.

If you're going to lose anyway, lose big. We ran the least-threatening Republican in decades, and he lost. We don't need a bomb thrower, but it's time to junk the timidity.

The answer, simply enough, is for whatever Republican polity is dealing with this to stop playing the left's game.

Were I in Michigan I'd announce a special task force to investigate political violence at Union events and give regular updates and stick some of these bastards in prison.

184 BC, the more I think about it, the more being a dad makes me think that if Cougar and Princess weren't around, I may have not engaged. Ok, I lawfully defended myself, crippled or killed one or two or three attackers. If the crowd breaks or the police show up, great. I may do a night in the hoosegow, but no big deal. On the other hand, if those 30+ goons decide they wanna bash my skull in for revenge, I'm in trouble, and there might not be anyone around to defend my family. Worse, my family could be a target of these scum. I don't know if Crowder is married or has kids, but you better believe they would go after them if he put donut boy in the hospital. So, like I said, it's not fair to call him a pussy.

There are tons of videos all over Liveleak and YouTube of people retaliating and being instantly left alone.

The most famous, of course, is Epic Beard Man beating the snot out of a much younger man who had an entire busload of people on his side. Epic Beard Man was all alone. And when Epic Beard Man administered justice, what did the crowd do?

They screamed "Jesus Christ!" They wailed in disbelief. They went from egging on the attacker to cowering in terror of a 67-year-old man.

This is always the proper reaction to bullying:

221 If Crowder had swung back it would have been "Prominent conservative killed following a violent outburst during an otherwise peaceful protest."

When Crowder was assaulted twice, other union members pulled the attackers away, and then the cops came in and beat union skulls with nightsticks.

It was a just a crowd of fat, middle-aged loudmouths emboldened by the fact that nobody stopped them from tearing down the tents.

Each action they took was allowed to pass without any response, so they steadily escalated their aggressiveness until it resulted in violence.

The conservatives didn't respond, and they got assaulted anyway. If someone had laid out a union goon with a single punch or kick, it would've stopped. That's why people have to train to bring someone down with one blow.

Or, in the case of Epic Beard Man, a flurry of thirteen blows delivered in under three seconds that left his attacker in no condition to continue the attack.

You can't brawl with thugs; you have to learn to instantly lay them out. Epic Beard Man knows how to do it. I watched that video dozens of times in slow motion, checking out how expertly he landed his blows. It was his fighting skills that made the crowd afraid of him.

Remember that Aussie kid who body-slammed his bully? He'd been tormented his entire life. Now, everybody leaves him alone. If AFP had three or four veterans at every appearance who knocked out union goons just once or twice, no one would ever tear down their tents again, and the public would forget about the video of the incidents in about three days.

241 It doesn't completely apply to the Crowder attack but I read quite a while ago when the black flash mobs were hitting alot of places (and after the state fair fuck-up in particular) a pro-gun site linked maybe here or at Instapundit's discussing mobs. I can't recall if it was advice from the blogger or from a commenter, but it was suggested you try to get away without violence if you could but if not, then you should shoot the couple of obvious ringleaders first and the rest of the mob would likely run away.

243 162 Excuse me, General Woundwart, but Geraldo will have us all know he is a Republican.

Posted by: Ktgreat at December 11, 2012 10:51 PM (XKj1y) Geraldo is a liberal dem, if he claims otherwise, he's full of it. Rush Limbaugh used to call him the Grim Reaper because he'd always be on the ground when there were deaths to report. Jerry must have retired from that duty. I read that the Kennedy family fought over Hillary and Obama in 2008 and Ethel wouldn't talk to one of her kids for a long time. She had too many kids to keep track of by name. Caroline Kennedy was PO'd by Obama because she and Teddy endorsed him and he refused to take her suggestions about education seriously, he did not even respond. But as a hard core lib, she had no one else to support. Don't these people have any self respect? If I was from a "political dynasty" and threw my name after a fool that thought he could fool the country and part of it was because the Kennedy family, most of them, endorsed him, I would expect payback. Caroline is as stupid as the rest of the clan.

***

Crowder did fight back. The smart way; by getting it all on video. What they did to Crowder is what they do to people who want to work while they are on strike.

I love hearing these assholes crying about how they are taking their rights away. These laws aren't taking anything away from anybody. They are giving workers freedom from unions and giving businesses the right to hire and fire anyone they want to.

Today was too lopsided and too volatile for one man to handle, IMHO, and looks like he has said as much himself.

I'm not criticizing Crowder at all. Everyone makes their own choices in how to handle these things.

I've just found that in my own personal experience, the Truman Doctrine of massive retaliation works the best. And I ask again, when was the last time a crowd of union goons beat to death someone who fought back?

Maybe we're all thinking of that Stallone movie F.I.S.T. or Danny DeVito's stupid movie about Hoffa. When was the last time a union crowd actually took somebody's life?

304 The bank officials KNEW that they were conducting transactions with Iranian entities (and the Syrians and Cubans and Drug Cartels), and they KNOWINGLY engaged in a practice to strip the identifying information off of the transactions, so that the receiving entity would not know where the transaction originated. BY DESIGN! And, so far as I can tell, so far, the problem actually stems with the federal regulators themselves. Because early on, issues and suspicions surfaced. And the regulators gave deferential treatment to the bank, saying, in effect: "well, look, you really need to correct these problems. We'll give you time to do so." What finally forced the Doj's hand was the report that was released by the Senate's permanent Subcommittee on investigations that disclosed in "very aggravating detail", the scope and the breadth of the money laundering and criminal activity conducted by HSBC.

I think it is intentional, he wants more Islamists, like his father, if any watched 2016 The Movie, there is absolutely no reason for TFG to idolize his drunk of a father, to control Egypt, Syria, etc?

I would say girls are much worse. Not speaking about my daughter, but girls in general. Women in general. Present company excepted. I have always gotten along better with men, who are funny, not shallow (well...), and more practical than most women. I must reiterate, present company excepted, which is why I prefer to hang out here, than, say, Jezebel. Men just are more real. I have a select few women friends. One is liberal. But she's so funny that I let it go, and so does she. And even the conservative ones are way too involved with sugar-substitutes and celebrities.

Plus, men tell dick jokes, which I find amusing.

The Nile River Valley looks like a giant glowing sperm cell. That Man Of Steel poster, unless I've just never seen it, looks kinda fake. But than again movie one-sheets these days all fucking suck. Used to be a goddamned art form in of itself. Chick doesn't want to raise a boy? I recommend abortion. Seriously, she doesn't want a boy and will raise a piece of shit which society also doesn't need. God invented abortion for these very reasons. Kill it in the graveyard of your rancid womb, bitch. Do it now, for all womankind! I want to be part of a union protest so I, too, can go beating up random people while under the protection of fucktard goons. They won't know who I am anyway, so it's not like they can turn in any names. And what's the whole point of having political muscle if you don't flex it? Now that's free riding, baby!

369 So I've watched the attack on Steven Crowder a couple of times and noticed something: Check out the :40 mark when the fat old drunk gets a little off balance swinging those haymakers.

Crowder quickly closes the distance and ties up the guy's right arm. Then he moves in and begins to clinch.

Closing with the guy was smart. By doing so, he protected himself from further punches. It's hard to hurt someone when they're clinching with you. That's why boxers do it when they get rocked.

Once inside, he could have easily tossed this fucko on his head with a hip throw, gotten a body lock and tripped him, or taken him down with a double leg. But Crowder couldn't risk taking it to the ground with that hostile crowd all around.

I'm guessin Crowder understands a thing or two about fighting. That fat union goon? Not so much. Any decent fighter would get of two or three accurate strikes by the time he finished one of those wild, off-balanced haymakers.

373 Well, here comes Benghazi East;

In a diplomatic shift, President Obama said today his administration now formally recognizes the newly-formed, leading coalition of Syrian rebels who are fighting to topple Syria's embattled President Bashar Assad.

"We've made a decision that the Syrian Opposition Coalition is now inclusive enough, is reflective and representative enough of the Syrian population that we consider them the legitimate representative of the Syrian people in opposition to the Assad regime," Obama said.

One little catch though. Russia and Iran still back Asshead, so it might get a little dicey when the SCOAMF orders another "kinetic military action" without so much as a phone call to Congress

Yeah, he did the right thing. Me? I would have done the un-smart thing and fucked the guy's shit up. Then I would've gotten stomped by the mob.

I just don't have any kind of self control when someone starts swinging at me.

The takeaway from this is that you need to know something about ground fighting and standup as well if you want to be able to defend yourself.

Wrestling and Jiu Jitsu are great for one on one confrontations, but if there's a group you can't risk being on the ground. I learned this the hard way once in a street brawl when I tossed my opponent with a Judo throw, went to the ground with him in a headlock, and started punching his face.

I thought things were going great until I got my face soccer kicked by someone else. It knocked me unconcious. My friends thought i was dead because I stopped breathing when I was out. Fortunately, I just ended up with a concussion and a bloody face. It could've been much worse.

421 So, Skyfall... Pretty good. Pretty good. Hell if I knew what the plot was about but it looked fantastic! Director Sam Mendes really shot this one beautifully. Beautifully! Wish they put the same amount of effort into the script as they did the actual filming. And Javier Bardem, what can be said about him? Such a wonderful villain. Always plays a great bad guy. Too bad his character was a little on the thin side, but what Bardem was given he did quite well with. And Ben Whishaw...I have no idea who he is but he's a pretty good Q. Naomie Harris, who you might remember as the black chick from 28 Days Later and the black chick from Pirates Of The Caribbean 2 and 3, now plays...the black chick in SKyfall. Who later turns out to be MONEYPENNY! A more involved Moneypenny to boot. I like her. She's damn fine in tight skirts. And Berenice Marlahohe...I have no idea who she is either but she's the new Bond Girl who has ten minutes of screen time. Unbelievably beautiful. Incredible. Delicious. I want to see her naked. And they're all thrown together in Skyfall doing some shit for some reason which is only later revealed but sort of as an after thought but the Bond series has always just been an excuse to shoot beautiful people in exotic locales anyway so it makes no difference whether or not there's a plot THOUGH IT HELPS *breathes in* because we really ought be invested in the action to some degree and beautiful people, exotic locales and random action sequences just aren't enough in this day and age. *Breathes out* Okay... So short version is it's okay. I'd say about on the level of Quantum of Solace, but a lot longer and a little more self-aware. But for $5 bucks I'm not going to complain. Much. It's an okay movie. It's a good night out. Take your old lady, go with friends, have a good time. The movie does have a fair amount going for it. Individual scenes are well executed and well performed (though the climax gets really dark to the point of being hard to see I guess because they wanted more natural light) but like I said above, there's not a real story there. What is actually there involves Judi Dench's M. It's basically her story. Bond might be the feature player but it's like the plot basically involves him being M's running dog while she handles the political side of things. And then it turns out the villain has some sort of beef with her and...well, basically it's M's arc that drives the story forward for the most part. Overall, it's a pretty decent action flick with great photography and thin story. I give it 3.5/5 stars.

I don't think that qualifies as a rom-com. I do know it looked dumb as hell. The premise is that some married guys are given a "hall pass" to go screw other women. I'm guessing that the movie ends with them actually not going through with it and really learning how much they love their wives.

452 Dan Rather is truly a corn encrusted piece of shit. May his scrotum suffer the bite of a thousand sandfleas. Willing to sucker punchs some poor schmuck and steal his tape. All done in the name of journalistic integrity, I'm sure. The problem the GOP has and will continue to have is that it cannot and must not suffer these fools, such as Rather, when they will go to absolutely ANY length to get the story or slant an issue to their side. Until the GOP finally internalizes this, until our side stops sitting down with the media, glad handing and making nice and utterly fucking useless small talk, then we are fucked. As so many have succinctly said on here, let it burn. I'm just about there. I can't recall if it was Ace or another author emeritus (or even a 'ron commenter) who said that our strategery (as Bush would say) need not be winning the unwinnable media to our side. Rather (no pun intended), we must either destroy those institutions through financial means (boycott advertisers/corporate owners), seize control of them through financial means (hostile acquisition), or start an entirely conservative media network tv outlet. One that is unbashedly conservative- one that doesn't give a fuck about offending and simply tells the news with a relentless, conservative pounding. Fox doesn't get there, though it does some good. I'm starting to get off on a tangent here with my rant, but I was mulling this over the other day. Why our side wants to be loved so badly by the MSM. Rush has hit this succinctly, but a pefect illustration was when Ann Romney went on the view and Whoopi Shitbird Extraordinaire Goldberg ambushed her with the question about Vietnam. She said something along the lines of, "Mitt was never in the militry orVN. How can you face all the mothers of the dead soldiers..fathom their pain" (etc etc). Ann stumbled and mumbled about serving the church. All well and good. She should have said, "I imagine in the same way the President, who never served in the military, has, or the same way Michelle Obama faces those same mothers. It doesn't take a first lady title to have a compassionate heart" or something like that. But I hope for too much. Dan Rather is still a fuckstick.

By that rationale neither Batman nor Wonder Woman is a superhero. They have no special abilities beyond their respective species. (Or sub-species for Amazons.)

The superhero description doesn't come from the superhuman abilities, especially in Batman's case. It comes from the behavior and utilization of those abilities. (In Batman's case it is a superhuman level of PTSD induced psychosis.)

So the experimental squares of what we think this time is taupe and experimental baseboard colors have been painted. The light taupe floor looks good. The dark taupe baseboard looks ... weak / chalky / washes out against the green wall. But 'Ancho Pepper' baseboard looks good. Dark taupe looks good for a small floor stencil outline 'round the room ... The phrase "It looked Good On Paper!" comes to mind ... as does "You first worlders and your problems!"

I can spot the slightest differences in tone and it will drive me crazy if it isn't exactly what I want. For that reason, I buy several samples and then paint LARGE swatches on individual pieces of white cardboard. It's great because you can test it on different walls and different rooms where the light is different. It really has helped a lot in cutting down errors.

Actually, characters like Doc Savage came earlier. In fact, Superman's civilian name Clark Kent was taken in part from Doc's full name Clark Savage, Jr.

There was also an influential book called Gladiator in 1930 by Philip Wylie, who is best remembered for 'When Worlds Collide' thanks to the George Pal movie. Siegal and Schuster made it very clear Gladiator was a big influence.

In the late 80s, after DC had merged all of its parallel universe into one, meaning there could be only one Superman, the Earth-2 Superman who first appeared in 1938 was replaced by Arn 'Iron' Munro, a character based directly on the Gladiator.

492 ABE news is pushing Obama's fiscal cliff message.

I ask:

When the Bush tax cuts were passed, the Dems called it "tax cuts for the rich."

But now we're told their expiration will result in a tax increase for **everyone**.

Obama is saying, "the most important thing we can do is make sure that **middle class taxes** do not go **up** on Jan. 1."

But if **middle-class tax rates** went DOWN under Bush, and middle class taxes will go UP on Jan 1, then why did the Dems lie back in BushÂ’s term by saying only "the rich" benefited???

It's simple to understand: when their dentures are moving, the Dems are lying.

Epobirs, I'm aware of all that. Doc Savage and Wylie's Gladiator were more pulp heroes and sci-fi. Superman took those concepts and kicked them up a notch. There wouldn't be a Batman, Captain America, etc. if it weren't for the success of Superman.

532 Less than two weeks left to get all your Christmas shoplifting done boys and girls.

Walmart has a corporate policy of not prosecuting on anything under about $25, so that's the place to get all your stocking stuffers and small items.

For the larger items, you'll want to see your local fence. Lotta Christmas cheer "falling off trucks" this time of year.

Remember, supporting your local criminals "spreads the wealth" directly and is very environmentally friendly. A Walmart is burning in the range of 150,000W just to light the store. OTOH, Vinnie the fence is very environmentally friendly and only uses a 40W bulb in his storage unit. Do the math.

Check out 'Nobody Would Listen' by Harry Markopolos. He spent ten years trying to alert the feds that something was wildly wrong with Bernie Madoff's operation. Not only did the regulators lack the proper suspicion of someone so absurdly successful, they didn't even understand the evidence Markopolos presented. The problem was that they were mainly lawyers and hadn't a clue how things really worked in finance.

546 Speaking of Walmart (pbut), did anyone catch the Daily Mail version of the poor poor 'shoplifter' killed there a couple of days ago? I put shoplifter in quotes because THEY did. A real piece of yellow journalism by them in this case.

You see, this shoplifter was IN FACT shoplifting, as allegedly were her two accomplices. All were witnessed stuffing crap in their bags, and when they tried to run when told to stop, they still managed to get to the getaway car.

The security guard, an off duty deputy sheriff, identified himself as an officer and told the driver to step out of the car. Instead, she dropped the car in gear and endangered his life, so he shot her.

The article then said "Tragically, she wasn't even supposed to be there." Well duh, yeah. It seems she was on probation and banned for life from Walmart, for having black skin. No wait, it was actually for shoplifting there in the past. Go figure.

I'm trying to figure out why that is 'tragic'. Did the judge and her lawyer not tell her that she wasn't welcome at Walmart any more? I'm not glad that she is dead, but I'm not all that broken up about it either.

I suppose a rant this long deserves a linky:

549 Not only lawyers spending money, but being elected to craft the very thing that gives them their livelihood in their regular careers. Allowing a lawyer, which is by definition a professional sophist, the ability to create, rewrite, and define the law is a recipe for disaster. This is like letting a thief run an armored car company. All they do is rig the system for the benefit of their profession, at the expense of all others. No more lawyers!

561 An engineer goes to Heaven, but St. Peter is on vacation, and the temp running the judgment desk goes "engineers? I can't find them here. Off to hell." When he gets to help, the Engineer is approached by Satan. "Hey, we've got serious problems here, the toilets are backed up, its too hot in here...". So, the engineer gets to work. God is on his cloud in Heaven, and baffled as the screaming and wailing from Hell subsides, and decides to see what's going on. When he gets there, Satan says "Hey, this guy's awesome, thanks for sending him our way. We've got sanitation, air conditioning, lights, TV..." God is not amused, because Hell is supposed to be, well, Hell. "Give back the engineer, the Temp messed up, its not right. I'll sue!" The Devil's jaw dropped. "How did YOU get a LAWYER?"

I built him that classical guitar a few years back, which he hardly touches, restored his 50's jazz master that was apart for 35 years, that he barley touches, got him the bass last year that he wanted, that he probably touched once. So yeah, really not sure wtf to do for him this year.

He says the vibrolux is too heavy, the tremolux don't have reverb (argh) so I got him some 75 watt Vox valvetronix combo amp that has a really nice clean sound with some onboard effects. He sounds good through that, so amp wise he is finally happy. I have been trying to get him set up for the last 10 years, so I think I finally got him where he wants to be.

611 re: "2) It would cuckold Barry."

Ah! Lightbulb.

When Obama said Trayvon looked like his imaginary son, I just thought he was being his usual delusional self, where in his mind he's this scary street-ass black guy who totally freaks you out. But in real life, if Obama shot Trayvon, the news would say a black kid got shot by a White African. I mean, if Obama could get James Brown pregnant, the resultant son wouldn't be a scary black dude; he'd be a weedy beige dork.

But maybe what Obama was doing, instead of being publicly insane, was signalling very subtly that he's looking for what cuckoldry connoisseurs call a "bull"--a huge black-as-hell dude--to impregnate his wife. Right in front of him.

So if you're a huge black dude (as at least half of us here doubtless are), your plan is flawed. He'd be into it.

My sister and I have learned to keep an eye out while walking the dogs. We don't want to find out what happens if the two types of canine get too close. One one walk we had our then 15 year old niece with us. Sister and I noted a suspicious silhouette across the street and up the hill by the park. Niece said it was just a bench. No big deal. The 'bench' then started walking up the hill.

Ever since then we've relentlessly made sure niece is on the lookout for rogue park benches

You make me AND the Company you putatively represent look bad. If I get REALLY, REALLY good at Sales, do I get to fucking insist that ALL *my* installs will be handled, in-house?

617 I am now horrified and intrigued at the suggestion that fucking Alf would cuckold Obama.

He eats dog. Alf eats cats. No strays in that neighborhood.

618 616 Coyotes are pretty brazen in my neighborhood. Sister and I noted a suspicious silhouette across the street and up the hill by the park. Posted by: epobirs at December 12, 2012 04:39 AM (kcfmt) --- I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT until I live in a neighborhood where the suspicious silhouettes are coyotes. Every couple weeks in this area a "park bench" shoots or stabs somebody to death. Weird thing is it's really not that bad of an area. If they hadn't gotten someone close to me I'd have never known. On a lighter note, time for me to http://blogs.kcls.org/booktalk//Baby%20coyote.jpg

619 That is the advantage of living near a prison. A lot of cops live in the neighborhood and any bad guys can expects a lot of residents to be armed. I suspect a lot of people around here have the attitude that if you catch and kill a burglar you don't call the cops. You just bury him in the backyard. Who is going to miss him and what burglar leaves a list of the places he plans to hit for his friends or family to use in case he goes missing?

If you've got a decent truck you go up into the hills a ways and then away from the track to dump the body under the plant life canopy. The wildlife will make short work of it and it could be years before anyone came close enough to that exact spot to recognize human bones.

Yes, this is in deep blue Los Angeles County. Things are a bit different out towards the edges.

620 <> Nah, mostly size and...somesuch. I KNOW it was a juvenile Coyote. You never ever *see* little Coyotes. Wasn't a pup. Wasn't all rangy and lean like a full grown.

621 >>I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT until I live in a neighborhood where the suspicious silhouettes are coyotes.<< Nice thing about Coyotes as opposed to the SEIU? "Get off my Lawn!" is all it takes, usually for Coyotes. Worst thing about SEIU Members? You have to "humanely" trap and kill them. Why?

622 I suspect the average coyote would make a better meal or pet than an SEIU member.

623 The average coyote is smart enough to not foul its own den. SEIU thug on the other hand.

625 "beastly boys..." That's one ginger who ought to have been spayed.

626 I think someone spayed this thread.

627 Well, someone finally listened.

628 I guess the price was right ...

629 Stop flaming each other. We are on the same team. Disagreements are one thing, petty name calling is for the left. Everyone just stfu and let me think!

631 I hope this B***h knows that the internet is forever, so she's not so suprised when her 13 year old son wants to know why she was so dissapointed in having a son that she had to disrespect him in national publication. I think that's where the teenage rebellion will start-

632 In Post-Obama America, it's every man and woman for himself/herself. Why mourn the end of a Nation that's now gone? Intelligent, talented, hard-working people will be fine; the parasites who have lived off of their neighbors through the Government will be the ones who bear the brunt of what's to come. Why should I care? Darwinism may be slow and inefficient, but it is about to catch up with and begin decimating America's Worst Generation.
