Truth: The Latest Weapon of the Patriarchy
Because the true facts about Wendy Davis' life are just another front in the War on Women and she's not going to take any more mansplaining attacks from her opponent, Greg Abbot, or anyone else.
We're not surprised by Greg Abbott's [her Texas governorship opponent] campaign attacks on the personal story of my life as a single mother who worked hard to get ahead. But they won't work, because my story is the story of millions of Texas women who know the strength it takes when you're young, alone and a mother. I've always been open about my life not because my story is unique, but because it isn't.
The truth is that at age 19, I was a teenage mother living alone with my daughter in a trailer and struggling to keep us afloat on my way to a divorce. And I knew then that I was going to have to work my way up and out of that life if I was going to give my daughter a better life and a better future and that's what I've done. I am proud of where I came from and I am proud of what I've been able to achieve through hard work and perseverance. And I guarantee you that anyone who tries to say otherwise hasn't walked a day in my shoes."
Here is a picture of Greg Abbot. He hasn't walked a day in her shoes - or at all since a tree fell on him 30 years ago, paralyzing him and requiring almost a year in rehab. Clearly he knows nothing of suffering.
But Wendy "Storyteller" Davis is doubling down:
And Stephen Green has a diabolical suggestion for Abbot:
Obama's finest speeches do not excite. They do not inform. They don't even really inspire. They elevate. They enmesh you in a grander moment, as if history has stopped flowing passively by, and, just for an instant, contracted around you, made you aware of its presence, and your role in it. He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh, over color, over despair. The other great leaders I've heard guide us towards a better politics, but Obama is, at his best, able to call us back to our highest selves, to the place where America exists as a glittering ideal, and where we, its honored inhabitants, seem capable of achieving it, and thus of sharing in its meaning and transcendence.
-- Ezra Klein, January of 2008
In any normal workplace this paragraph alone would have been sufficient cause for a drug test and maybe some counseling.
The Unbearable Lightness of Hillary Clinton's Achievements
When you ask her diehard supporters what she did as secretary of state they start with, "She travelled a million miles! More than any secretary of state."Put aside the fact that the "more than any secretary of state" part isn't actually true - Condi Rice flew more. When you ask, "Okay, what did she get for it?" you get a blank stare or you get some stuff about championing women's rights. Two people have told me she did good work in Myanmar, but I've never really gotten to the bottom of that. I suppose I could look it up, but at the end of the day we're still talking about Myanmar, which is not the locus of America's most pressing international problems. ("That's right, because Hillary prevented the Myanmarese hegemony," someone at MSNBC just shrieked. "She stopped it cold.") While the Wikipedia page on her tenure doesn't even mention Myanmar, it does mention her championing of better cook stoves in the Third World. That's good. And so is improving the plight of women in various countries where their status ranges between "Slightly More Important than the Village Mule" to "So Incredibly Delicate We Must Keep Them Covered with Burlap Sacks All Day Long Even Though It's Like 115 Degrees in the Shade Today."
But when I take out my handy pocket realpolitik calculator, I just can't make all that add up to much. Particularly when you compare it with our worsening problems in the Middle East, Asia (minus Myanmar!), Europe, Russia, and South America. Those problems are by no means all her fault (nor are they all Obama's fault). But Clinton was the second most important foreign-policy official. If you were, say, the assistant coach of the 1999 Cleveland Browns or the deputy spokesman for Baghdad Bob during the lead-up to the Iraq War, you might - just might - want to highlight other things on your résumé. So it is with Clinton. As our chief diplomat, she presided over a long slide into foreign-policy suckitude. On her watch, America's standing got worse every place it matters (except Myanmar!), despite all of those sales calls.
And that leaves out the <sarcasm> little </sarcasm> issue of Benghazi. The Senate Intelligence Committee report is at once a fascinating and utterly banal artifact of Washington. It identifies a huge mistake. It denounces said mistake. It concludes that the mistake could have been prevented. But nobody is responsible for the mistake. The bureaucracy did it!
Okay, you ask, who was in charge of that bureaucracy?
Shut up, they explain.
Because talky bitchez and Gary Hart.
After all, with just one exception, a Clinton has always tried for public office whenever a tantalizing opportunity presented itself. The rule-breaker was Bill's aborted run for president in the 1988 cycle. On the eve of his expected candidacy announcement in July 1987, with the national press gathering in Little Rock, his long-suffering chief of staff, Betsey Wright, she later told PBS, huddled with her boss and presented a list of women he was alleged to have been "seeing." After a number of responses along the lines of "she'll never talk," Clinton belatedly awakened to the reality that he could self-destruct in the post-Gary Hart world-Hart had been forced out of the Democrats' presidency sweepstakes just a couple of months earlier following allegations of adultery. The next day, Clinton declined to run, stunning the news media with the unconvincing excuse that he had decided to spend more time with his family.
"It Makes Economic Sense for a Woman to Have More Than One Husband"
Writes Judith Warner in Time magazine. And judging by her sex dreams I think she's already got a candidate in mind for her second husband. Well good luck with that.
Gang Signs of the Intellectuals
The gestures you need to throw to convince people that you're a real thought leader. And possibly a member of the Chestertons or Van Buren Boyz.
To perform "The Critical Whirl," simply circle your hand counterclockwise in a small but rapid motion towards the audience. "Accelerate and repeat until idea unpacked," the website tells us. It's one of the more basic maneuvers, suitable for both formal academic settings and conversations about the means of production over a glass of wine.
And no I don't think this article is intentional satire either.
In the event of an ambush, their role was to drive into the kill zone during the first few minutes of the attack, and saturate the attackers with their firepower.
Early designs proved flawed, as the sandbag protections quickly became waterlogged in the frequent rains, weighing down the whole vehicle. They were later replaced with ad hoc steel armor plating, salvaged from scrap yards.
The crew consisted of a driver, two gunners, a non-commissioned officer, and sometimes a grenadier armed with an M79 grenade launcher.
On November 24, 1967, during an engagement in "Ambush Alley", a group of gun trucks managed to thwart an ambush. The convoy lost six transport trucks and four gun trucks damaged or destroyed, and several drivers were killed and wounded, but the Viet Cong lost 41 KIA and were forced to withdraw. ...
In all, an estimated 300 to 400 trucks were transformed in this way.

Sometime around Feb or March, Bob Beckel was on O'Reilly and he said that Hillary would go down in history as one of the most accomplished Secs of State ever.
O'Reilly asked Beckel to name a few of Hillary's accomplishments and Beckel just froze - it was hilarious and would make a perfect campaign commercial.

Regardless of whether or not you really believe Cuomo's retraction or other similar statements, I consider it *great news* that these public figures/entities are today often forced to offer them. 20 years ago before there was any sort of relatively organized network of conservatives on the web and "new media" (in fact there was barely a "new media" at all then), people like Cuomo could make these kinds of boneheaded pronouncements and get away with it without ever having to even explain themselves. Thank God those days are long gone.

Call me crazy, and of course it's only human nature to be beyond pissed off at all of their hatefulness, but it just looks to me like conservatives are really learning fast how to swiftly and effectively *make life hell* for liberal bigots spouting off.
One of the things conservatives should be doing a lot of these days IMHO is analyzing their success stories, not just elections but in setting the online media narrative, and learning how to further utilize these skills to greater and greater effect in the future.

It is absolultely hilarious that YET AGAIN, the insane lefties create a mannequin, a Barbie this time, that is every single thing they hate about a certain person...Sarah Palin.
David is a fraud, Obama is a fraud. Both have lives made out of lies.
They call both Palin and Bush frauds.
But they aren't.
Davis is nothing, a lightweight, so is the Cutey Pie, a dimbulb.
But yet, again, Palin/Bush...they call them morons, they aren't.
Manipulating media, propped up by illicit forces beyond our control.
Yep, both of the statues to stupidity.
But not Palin/Bush actually.
The entire leftist movement/mindset/philosohpy is deeply rooted in madness and weird bizarre fantasies and delusion, soaked in weird sexual overtones, and dreams of power.
That the idiots are running the country is kinda scary.

Anyway, I was wondering if it could be National Lumber that GnuBreed was thinking of. They used to have some funny cartoons in their lumber catalogs.

I think they've always been this batshit crazy. It's just that they're letting their inner psycho out more often for some reason.
Maybe because they'll be protected by the MFM or because they see Obama and his minions getting away with it on a daily basis and figure they can too.
Either way, half the country has shown itself to be in need of psychiatric help or a rubber room.

Gun trucks were great for ground engagement, but the grandaddy of all aerial attack vehicles was the famous Boeing Vertol CH-47 Guns-Go-Go!
These bitchin' machines weren't designed as gun platforms, but as cargo delivery vehicles. Boeing converted four into this gunship configuration for use on Combat Assault's (CA's) and they were effective.
Why were they not mainstreamed? The biggest problem was the massive amount of vibration created by multiple 50-calibur weapons used without large shock absorbing devices, therefore creating structural defects.
Absent Guns-a-Go-Go, the standard CA helicopter gunship platform remained the Bell UH-1C, and equipped with GE mini-guns (Gatlin) and 48 tube rocket pods on either side, she was a formidable platform.
Another popular configuration was the UH-1C Frog. She was equipped with a 40MM auto fire grenade launcher on the nose and mini's on the pylons each side. Another bitchin' ride that smoked a lot of ass.

And a lesson the US had not previously learned, but should have learned from others if the services were in the habit of paying closer attention, was the one about V-hull mine protected vehicles.
Themselves based on hard empirical lessons learned by Rhodesia in the 1970s and South Africa in the 1980s.
Just as with those two countries previously, when the US went into Iraq, a huge toll was taken until suddenly everyone fnally said, "Oh shit! Mines! Must have mine protected vehicles!"
And then of course the vehicles were rushed into production as hasty adaptations instead of buying proven designs elsewhere. Which led to endless problems with inadequate automotive components, and guaranteed that the resulting purchases would be useless white elephants over the longer term. As in fact they are, and the Pentagon are already fobbing the things off on podunk police departments Stateside who will never encounter a mine, but who think it looks cool.
Another triumph of American defense procurement.

A brigade of the 101st relieved my NG unit in OIF III. My Regiment was the the first (or one of the first) to begin putting "Hillbilly" armor on the Humvees, and had the guy that raised hell about it that made national news.
The 101st guys, who had been there during the invasion, refused to listen to anything the "dumb" National Guard guys told them since they had already "been there, done that." Except they hadn't, since they did not face IEDs during the invasion. The first thing they did was take the uparmored doors off the Humvees and proceed to get blown to pieces by IEDs. That continued for about a month until they wised up.

I also loved what Brands said when someone asked him what his biases were, and especially what he told his students about them. He said, and I'm trying to quote him somewhat accurately here:
"When my students ask me what party I belong to, I always tell them I'm a member of the Contrarian Party. If you are a bleeding heart liberal, I am the rock-ribbed conservative. And if you are the Tea Party enthusiast, I am the Occupy rabble rouser. If you don't want your preconceived notions about society challenged, don't go to college."

Remember the convenience store in Raising Arizona? "Short Stop."
Still love the scene when Holly Hunter's in the car feeding the baby, she looks up, and there's Hi (Nic Cage)... with the pantyhose on his head, robbing the store. "That asshole!!"

305 snarkster,
During the interminable commercials before the screening of Lone Survivor began, they advertised rescreenings coming soon of several old movies from remastered film. Among the movies offered are Fast Times and Ferris Bueller.
I think that this is so much smarter than trying to remake them.

Torch Red in 2010 was more of a pure red, Race Red has a bit more orange in it. Really makes it pop out. Not a sparkly kind of candy apple red, but I like it.

As I noted on an earlier thread, the leftists do not understand that when they destroy the rule of law and replace it with the rule of men, that is not in their long-term best interest. Because the people who come out (relatively) on top are the strong and well-armed, not the pajamaboys with COEXIST bumper stickers, who are useless when the stuff hits the fan. The red states have food, energy, and millions of people who have weapons and know how to use them. The blue states have people who know how to riot and steal. We need to promote the Constitution and the rule of law, before it is too late.

I do think that if it ever comes to that, it largely sorts itself geographically, along red-blue lines. There will be refugees from the unrest in the cities, and food and water start to be used as weapons. We need to be prepared for the influx of blue state refugees.

And they usually do not end well. America has been very a-historical throughout it's lifetime. A revolution that stopped and did not keep going through several iterations before stopping. A bloody civil war that did NOT end up tearing the country apart. Very, very few uprisings and rebellions- and those almost all within the first 100 years.
People today have no grasp of how bad history can get because they have been insulated from it. They think they are different. They are idiots.

This one is interesting because blue states aren't really blue -- they're overcolonized by blue cities within a red countryside -- http://tinyurl.com/bq9avfb -- check out Illinois, California, Oregon.... and then go ask someone in rural Illinois what they think about "those Chicago people".
In times past, this was a successful model for empires because the peasants were poor farmers and all the people with arms who understood phalanxes were in the cities. I would argue that more military bases are in red areas today, and gun control has meant that only gangbangers have guns in cities, but they're widespread in the country.

What an idiotic situation. You know, the one where a modern cargo ship can be attacked, boarded and taken over by your garden variety primitive humans with AK47s, all for want of any semblance of a defensive weapon on board. Any weapon whatsoever, other than flares and fire hoses. The entire premises is to laugh.
Give me my AR-7 and 100 .22lr rounds and I will pepper those assholes at 300 yards until they fucking think twice about boarding my ship from astern. For want of the most rudimentary weapons of self defense, we have this true story. It beggars understanding.

Yeah....I could have done without the color component to the cube -- it's really more "tribal". I used to work in a place whose factory floor was roughly 30% Vietnamese, 30% Hispanic, 30% Bosnian, and 10% everyone else -- and, while they worked together well (evidently, it is difficult to get a good run of cursing going in Vietnamese, so they'd all swear in Bosnian), the Hispanics were decidedly more cliquish. From my limited experience, though, I'd say that northern urban African-Americans were considerably more tribal than southern rural African-Americans of the same tinge. It's more about your separation from society than your pantone number.
But, after such a long digression that was thoroughly off-the-point....yeah, that's a decent overview. It's urban ids against rural egos with a lot of government superegos flopping around uselessly.

639. We remain an exceptional nation. We contain exceptional patriots. If anything, seriously - if nothing else, I think that buys us the ability to get a lot closer to "right" within a generation or two - as opposed to ten.
this is my thought also. "this lady may have stumbled, but she ain't never fell"
NamGrunt (?) i thought put up a good post o/a the day CJ roberts maid the decision.
it will be a long fight to change direction. even then...

Toby Keith was a lot of fun, although very commercial. He's an entrepreneur.
Van Morrison was amazing.
But my girlfriend and I love the Mavericks. They are an awesome live band.

My suspicion is that it'll start going sideways when people realize that the fourth section of the 14th amendment -- which begins: "The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law,
including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for
services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be
questioned." -- (a) means something entirely different from what they think it does, and (b) has as much actual value as King Canute's command of the tides -- http://tinyurl.com/y98we7m .

So, on a tangent from music....."Velvet Green", by Jethro Tull, has always had an odd catch to me. About 2/3 of the song is a straightforward randy young lad, appreciative of female beauty and companionship.....but there's a two-line section that is set apart in the arrangement that is twisted and dark: "One dusky half-hour's ride up to the north. There lies your reputation and all that you're worth." This is echoed, later, by another disturbing couplet: "And the ragged dawn breaks on your battle scars. As you walk home cold and alone upon velvet green."
The rest of the song is playful and flirtatious, but those two couplets have an outsized impact by being so grotesque. In particular, the phrase, "all that you're worth" seems particularly egregious -- while the second couplet describes post-coital abandonment, characterization of someone as solely a one-time event is nastily dehumanizing.

It will probably actually gain her support because she is just being shown to actually represent them more than they previously thought. If they would vote for Hillary (and they will) there is no end to the degree that they will delude themselves into thinking that "riding my way on the back of a man" is equal to "I earned it myself."
Protester: "Do you know how many animals had to die to make that coat?"
Margo Brofman: "Do you know how many animals I had to fuck to get this coat?"
When will people on the right realize that there is no point in waiting for leftists to realize that their candidates lie, are scum, and have no standards. That died with Gary Hart/Donna Rice.

Walked into a shitstorm, myself, with the BH tonight. I consider forcing a woman to bear a fetus to term to be unacceptable slavery....while lamenting the loss of a potential life. I also consider mandatory child support from an unwilling parent to be slavery -- if a father clearly says "no" before viability, there should be no continuing liability for child support after birth.
So when I described Wendy Davis' ridiculous filibuster and subsequent meltdown, I had every expectation that the BH would laugh along. After all, the Texas law in question is meant to avoid Gosnells and viable babies discarded in linen closets.....but the BH went off on a WoW tirade straight out of the media handbook.
On my way out, I tried to point out that social-cons may question the basis of laws, but will faithfully execute the ones as written, whereas Progs invent justifications for actions and blow-off the language of statutes.....and got only limited agreement.

part of it is just the difference between the sexes.
For example: as an experiment you can walk up to any man you never met before and say: "some people sure wear funny looking shoes." About 80%-90% of men will say something like "I know, I saw some shoes yesterday that were absolutely ....."
About 80%-90% of women would take it personal and if they said anything at all it would be: "What's wrong with my shoes?"

I just know that I've got it reasonably square in my head....restrictions on abortion are womb-slavery, up to the point where another individual is involved....which can be fixed at the earliest point of external fetal viability 'cause if that ain't it, it's pretty damned close. Restrictions on fetal disavowal are straightforward slavery, and child support after birth should be just as noxious as forcing someone to bear an unwanted child to term.

That is the whole point of the Margo Brofman quote (movie -- Switch, Jobeth Williams character) ---
The reason these women are voting left is so they can have a government thug to enslave someone. Otherwise they have to fuck someone they really don't want to. If they got everything they wanted they would get some asshole on the hook to pay all their bills and then a bunch of boytoys on the side to give them their thrills. And ..... you are supposed to pay high enough taxes to support the government thugs needed to make that be so.

This situation actually gives me a great curiosity about lesbian marriages. When gold-digging bitches starting treating women as they treat men it will be very interesting to see what happens next. Divorce courts are going to get even more weird than before.

some things never change. slavery allowed one to extend their life by stealing the time of others. until immortality shows up we will always be able to depend on their behavior along with all the mental gyrations they will go thru to justify it.
listening to any of their justifications as if those justifications have credence just makes us all idiots.

There is a relatively current case about a lesbo couple, that talked a guy into acting as the sperm donor for their kid as a favor. Now they have split up, and the gal with main custody wants the sperm donor to pay child support.
He didn't even get the dubious pleasure of fucking his way to daddyhood; they used artificial insem.
Kinda throws that whole morality play about 'you do the dicking, you bought the chicken' into a tailspin, eh? I'd be interested in hearing what a super so-con thinks about that.

My views on involuntary daddyhood are the same as cthulhu's. Take away compulsory child support and I'll stop opposing abortion. I still won't like it, but I'll stop opposing it. In that vein, sperm donors that had absolutely no expectation of doing anything but supplying genetic material should be completely exempt from any sort of involuntary daddyhood at all, but given the nature of the beast lately (I'm thinking specifically of the guy in, I think it was PA, who donated to a sperm bank and then was tracked down to pay child support) a guy would have to be an absolute drooling imbecile to make any sorts of genetic deposits these days anywhere outside the shower drains.

I'd sue for custody instead, especially if I was in a stable relationship. How quick do you think that lawsuit would get withdrawn?

Yeah, Abortion Barbie is down for the single mother struggle. Only in today's America with the media we have could someone with her past even get a sound bite, much less consideration of running for governor.
She should be relentlessly mocked.
