Sounds Like Somebody's Going To Have To Get Serious


I'm still down. Not really fighting today, just getting through it. But, in my dark mood, I am enjoying the show:
The man known as President Obama left the building after his Syria speech. What’s left in the White House is Barry Soetoro or whatever he goes by now: a shrunken, confused husk surrounded by court jesters, second-rate ideologues, and sycophants. And while it may be tempting to gloat at his reversal of fortune, the truth is that the collapse of the presidency represents the most dangerous moment in America since the September 11, 2001 attacks. 
Olympus has fallen. America’s leadership is functionally impaired in the face of a thrusting, fast-moving, and possibly brilliant opponent. Of course, the fact that Putin was up against a broken reed made it easier for him. Yet however one may admire Putin’s skills, it must be an admiration tempered by fear, of the kind felt by the British 8th Army in the face of Rommel, of the sort with which Gamelin regarded Guderian. Nothing can disguise the fact that Putin is the enemy and America is less-than-competently led in its contest against him. Something must be done to stem the tide. But what?

"Less than competently led"?  And this is a new phenomena you say? Interesting. "Court jesters, second rate ideologues, and sycophants"? 

You're missing Mitt Romney again, aren't you?




I don't understand what's happening, that's my "problem". I was sure our nation's highest concerns were always recycling, gay marriage, American Idol, and "fun". Anyone who didn't think so was an asshole. I heard it said at the alternative medicine store and it's really popular. Like a celebrity. That's how we judge things, you know:



By how popular they are,...
