Hussein believes.

But as they say in Vegas, money talks and bullshit walks.

And Hussein's coin of the velvet phrase and unchallenged claim has become cheap filthy lucre that has been devalued and debased by himself. He has no foundation and like a bubble structure designed to remain upright by air pressure, his loss of credibility has caused it to collapse.

Some say it was the lies he told about his Preacher. Others say it was the fake fainting in the audience. Others maintain that it was that people finally started asking what Hussein was "hoping" for, and if we "can," fine. But what does that mean?

I believe it has been the commonsense and the collective memories of the people in their early 50's, and older, remembering that you can't "talk" with some enemies, and who remain embarrassed even today. It has been 33 years since the feckless anti-war Left Wing Demos insured that Communist North Vietnam would have South Vietnam so the group memory is fading.

But some of us have not forgotten.

At least 65,000 Vietnamese were murdered or shot after "liberation" – the equivalent in terms of Vietnam's population at the time, of killing three-quarters of a million people in today's U.S. The new communist regime ordered somewhere between one- third to one-half of South Vietnam's population to pass through its "re-education" camps, where perhaps as many as 250,000 died of disease, starvation, or were worked to death (the last inmates were not released until 1986).

That number does not include the thousands of "boat people" who tried to flee the totalitarian nightmare of communist Vietnam, and perished at sea.

Cambodia's fate was even worse. At least one and a half million innocent Cambodians were butchered or starved to death in the Khmer Rouge's killing fields and re-education camps, put to death by a fanatical regime that believed that anyone who wore eyeglasses must have "bourgeois intellectual tendencies" and be shot.

That was what the "future" meant 33 years ago. The dumb witted Demos had plenty of "hope." And yes, they "did." They gave away South Vietnam to killers.

What they didn't have was common sense and balls.

So when Hussein ducks and weaves, ask him what "hope" means. What it is that "we can" do. And is his legacy going to be winning the war on terror, or 2,000,000 dead Americans as a tribute to his arrogant over estimation of his own abilities?

Gangs and crews

Heard on the radio...

Washington DC officals have decreed that gangs are to now be called "crews."

Self esteem and all that.

Is that stupid or what?

And remember this is a city government that wants to have two US Senators and at least three congress critters.

You know, no one could make this stuff up.

Dumb, dumber and dumbest

Heard on the radio.

In April Ford took a big hit in sales, dropping around 17%. SUV's and pickups made up 70% of Ford's sales. So it is natural that with sky high gas prices, then that number would be hit.

And it was. The new figure is 38%.

Are you kidding me?? 38 frigging per cent??????? I mean I know the Demo Left Wing Wacko Environmentalists and Fellow Travelers, aka RINOs, are the base cause. But can we talk? Do you understand the concept that you don't play drop the soap in the shower and then complain when someone taps you on the shoulder??

Try individual responsibility. Try saying, I can buy myself a new 6 passenger American made car that will get 25 mpg overall. That if the front wheel drive won't propel me along when there is snow, then I should stay off the road. That unless I am a logger or farmer I don't need four wheel drive.

But even with all that, if you want to shoot yourself and the economy in the foot, be my guest.

Just get yourself a "Bought by a Dummy" bumper sticker and display same.

And quit whining.

Can we do a poll?

Reverend Wrong has been upped.

He said we are a country that sent "over 4,000 American boys and girls of every race to die over a lie." And Wright said it is a country "where I can worship God on Sunday morning wearing a black clergy robe and kill others on Sunday evening wearing a white Klan robe." (Unless, like me, you do all your Klan-related murdering on "casual Fridays.")

Can we have an amen for Saturday PM?

Chicken and the egg

Senator Schummer says that rising food prices are a greater problem than rising energy prices...

Sigh... where do they get these people?

Hey, Chuck! Rising energy prices are the problem.... Transport, fertilizer, cultivation.....

Without that, Chuck, we would not have rising food prices.

Of course Chuck wants to cloud the issue because he doesn't want us to be energy independent.

I mean, why else would he try and fool us?

Democrat Rangel says "Let them eat cake!"

CBS 2 HD: "How would you answer those people who say, 'Well, but it's taxpayer money. Instead of $700 a month, could you find something for, say, $300 a month?'"

Rangel: "I could probably find something for ... one of those red cars and then I think my constituents would say, 'With all the money that he gets, this is the respect he shows us?'"

I mean, what kind of BS is that??

This guy is ripping us off and he thinks he is showing us "respect?"

I think he is laughing his ass off at all the dummies who vote for him.

This country desperately needs to amend the Constitution to limit House terms to three and Senate to two.

Power corrupts. And the position for life many of these people have corrupts them totally.

Global Warming and logic

There is a joke that has been floating around the Internet for months... It specifies some really dumb stuff that no one could believe, yet they do..

The punch line is "Yet, they exist."

Yesterday on the bus from the airport terminal to the off premise parking lot someone commented on the brisk 62 degree tempature and I seized the opportunity to note that Global Warming had failed us.....

A mild discussion broke out in which a lady said that the temperature extremes was the fault of Global Warming....

When I asked her what happened to the warming caused by carbon dixiode during the winter she duly noted that (again) the cold weather was caused by the temperature extremes...she then threw in hurrricanes, toranados, flat feet and bad breath... okay, she didn't toss the last two... When I again asked what happened to the carbon dixiode she declared that it wasn't discussable..

Yes, folks. They exist.

Oh, BTW - I have figured out what happens to the carbon dioxide during the winter...

It goes south.

Do I get a Nobel Prize??
