Thanksgiving "Humor"
Allowing this bile to be published on her site tells me a bit about the character of Arianna Huffington.
To be fair, though, I'm fairly sure she'd allow the same comments to be uttered about Joe Lieberman. That's bipartisanship.

No, what would happen is you would sanctimoniously say, "It's an ugly truth, but Murtha's demise would be a blessing for the troops. It needed to be said."
How's your perfect war coming along?

Who prayed for Murtha's death? I just want him out of congress, not dead.

Once again, you even outdo the lunacy you have exhibited in past writings. Too much turkey yesterday and all the fatty gravies to clog the arteries and prevent the free flow of blood and oxygen to the brain?
No one I know - surely not CY - has EVER as much as implied that Murtha or anyone else from your far-left campgrounds should be dead just because of political differences.
Are you familiar with psychological projection? It appears that you actually are in favor of what the loon wrote at Huff and Puff ....
The loons from the Left are so predictable ...

Maybe next week we'll turn the corner, no?
It's cute when you take the high road like that, but you know perfectly well neither of you would make a peep if Malkin or Instapundit or CY or Captain Ed or whoever made a Thanksgiving prayer with a quasi-humorous wish that Murtha died.
Posted by: Earl at November 24, 2006 07:28 PM (yXuTl)
You actually gloat over the deaths of civilians. Can you even fathom how broken you are to gloat that such horrors have been visited upon another human being? I cannot imagine the inner reserves of spite and abject hatred you harbor in your soul, and I am so thankful that I could never be anything like you.
None of the bloggers you mentioned would wish death on Murtha, or any other Democrat. We simply don't think that that, Earl, and perhaps it shouldn't surprise me that you can't see that.
How sad...

Back in June, during an interview on the "Right Wing News" site, Coulter described Murtha as "the reason soldiers invented 'fragging.'"
That's pretty straightforward.
This crap spews from both sides. It's disingenuous to pretend it doesn't.

How bout we have a pissing match on this. You can make one quote from June was it? I bet I can find 10 since then from the left.
But it would be just that - a pissing match. I think CY's point about Earl gloating over civilian deaths is even more poignant. Simply because it is true.
Earl - do you live in the US or any of the 40 countries associated with our coalition? If so - it is your war too - little boy. Sad, sad, little boy. Time to up the meds again Earl....

Rather than rely on CNN for all your news about Iraq (kinda like depending on LA Times for the news about the airstrike that wasn't, right?) try looking around a little. Here is a good site.

Specter: I never look at CNN, just follow links there. I guess they just made that up, huh? That darn MSM!
That you should recommend the Centcom site to me is amusing. I guess the military is the most unbiased news resource on the war out there. Now why didn't I think of that? DO NOT take this as anti-military. My point is just that it's naive to expect unbiased war news from the military.
The jig's up, boys. You Clown World denizens can keep blaming Clinton and Kerry, but here on planet earth W's going to get his comeuppance. He's never learned a trade, accomplished a thing, or taken responsibility for anything in his life, so I'm going to enjoy this one to the hilt.

CY'ers in general --
I wonder who said this? Probably some leftist pinko:
"The time for more U.S. troops in Iraq has passed. We do not have more troops to send and, even if we did, they would not bring a resolution to Iraq. Militaries are built to fight and win wars, not bind together failing nations. We are once again learning a very hard lesson in foreign affairs: America cannot impose a democracy on any nation — regardless of our noble purpose.
"We have misunderstood, misread, misplanned and mismanaged our honorable intentions in Iraq with an arrogant self-delusion reminiscent of Vietnam. Honorable intentions are not policies and plans. Iraq belongs to the 25 million Iraqis who live there…. The United States must begin planning for a phased troop withdrawal from Iraq.

I think it would prove you had the "moral authority" to comment if you did. Since you're apparently not a pilot, you would seem unqualified to comment on whatever it takes to become one.
Posted by: Purple Avenger at November 25, 2006 08:34 PM (1WIsD)
I guess I missed something. I read over Earl's posts, but I didn't see any gloating over civilian deaths. Did that happen in some other thread?

So in Clown World, a good pilot can slink off from a Guard obligation and a good business executive can trash two companies. Got it.
His record in politics is consistent with everything else in his life, he's no damn good at much of anything. He wouldn't have gotten into the Guard, or HBS, or executive of two companies or politics were it not for his name. He's utterly mediocre.
"Earl is a failure and projects that failure on others to make himself feel good about himself. In that, too, he has failed miserably."
Clearly you are very wise to know these things. Tell me, when will we turn the corner in Iraq? Next week? Next month? Or wait, you guys haven't dragged out this old chestnut in awhile -- maybe the war is going really, really well, only those rascals in the MSM won't report the good things. Is that it?
Posted by: Earl at November 26, 2006 02:15 AM (yXuTl)
I've never gloated about the death of Iraqis, here or anywhere else.
Posted by: Earl at November 26, 2006 02:26 AM (yXuTl)
It's touching how the Clown Worlders try to defend W. His grades were better than Kerry's! How about that? You're not a pilot so you're not qualified to judge him! How about that? He was an executive! How about that?
He was a drunk for decades! How about that? He used cocaine and got arrested! How about that? He says he's born again, but he's too good to go to church! How about that? He was a cheerleader in college! How about that?
Clown World would never, ever, ever shut up about it if a Dem candidate didn't go to church. W's just a little bit better than us though, so he doesn't need to. Clinton 'didn't inhale', and we heard about that over and over and over, but W's cocaine was before he was reborn, so we're not even allowed to find out what is the deal.
Clown World doesn't want the most qualified man for the job, Clown World wants some kind of king. That's all it comes down to with W -- his 'moral compass'. That may float your boat in Clown World, but here on earth, accomplishments matter. It's a shame that the Repubs have thrown down this mantle. It was an important contribution to our society. The same goes for fiscal prudence. It's shocking how sheerly wrong Clown World has been about everything for six long years.
But the jig's up now boys. Leahy, Waxman, Reed, Pelosi, and others are going to get some accountability. The Boy King has owned up once already when he fired Rumsfeld, but that's just the beginning.

Yup! Sign of the times. He has no workable solutions for anything. He can only cry and whine and repeat that idiotic expression, "the jig is up." Why not some solutions? That requires intellect and talent and imagination and vision.
On the subject of drunkenness, it appears that Earl remains intoxicated on some drunken binge of his own narcissistic personality disorder that just keeps him marginally above the rim of the tank.
I wonder how soon this Troll of Trolls will sink into oblivion, drowning in the empty fluids of his own self-delusional perceptions of self.

It's a defense mechanism. It works for him as long as he continues to believe his own lies to himself, ignoring reality.

Ted Kennedy may very well be a lifelong drunk--I don't know--but he isn't the president.
I may be wrong, but I think that Earl is writing about the character and decisions of the sitting POTUS. In that context, Kerry and Kennedy aren't even worth mentioning.
I don't know Earl at all--he might be a vile monster or a beatific saint--but he's not currently the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. His abilities and his past are not the issue here, and neither are the abilities or past of the other people who post here.
It might be more productive if we were all to keep the focus on the guy who actually has his finger on The Button right now.
Posted by: Doc Washboard at November 26, 2006 09:55 AM (X3KVz)
The original subject was the sick humor expressed by a loser in the pages of the Huffington Post, longing for Vice President Richard Cheney to have a fatal heart attack.
What does that have to do with all the nonsense and vile anti-EVERYONE hatred expressed by Earl?
Stay on task. The fact that Bush has his finger on The Button has nothing at all to do with the HuffPo article.
Posted by: Retired Spy at November 26, 2006 11:20 AM (Xw2ki)
In short, is Earl worth bothering with?
(No offense intended, Earl, of course.)
Posted by: Doc Washboard at November 26, 2006 11:57 AM (X3KVz)
Why do you tell us we should keep focus on the guy whose finger is on The Button? The original subject was not Bush at all.
Just trying to get out all that hate at every opportunity? Intellectual bankruptcy? Loss of FOCUS?
Do you or Earl or anyone pointing the accusatory fingers have actual solutions? Then tell the newly anointed Democrat saviors in the House and Senate. They need some new ideas. Haven't seen any there yet - just some in-fighting.
Posted by: Retired Spy at November 26, 2006 12:13 PM (Xw2ki)
Also: I'm not sure what nonsense you think it is I'm buying into.
I thought that the president was more important to the direction of the nation than Earl. Again, maybe I'm wrong.

"He was a drunk for decades!...

My word you are dense. What is that supposed to prove? Kennedy is/was a drunk, therefore it's OK that Bush was too? Sheesh.

"Notice how Earl is becoming more and more desperate and more and more defensive with the passage of each day? Yup! Sign of the times."
Oh that's rich. You're one of the elite 1% who thinks that Iraq is improving, and I'm fighting reality.
Here are those rascals at the MSM making things up again:
Will we turn the corner next month, Spy? Is the next six months the crucial period? Or is the jig up?
"He has no workable solutions for anything. He can only cry and whine and repeat that idiotic expression, 'the jig is up.' Why not some solutions? That requires intellect and talent and imagination and vision."
I wish I had a solution. The choices I see are phased withdrawal on our terms, or getting kicked out.
What's your solution? Democracy at the barrel of a gun? Loser.
"On the subject of drunkenness, it appears that Earl remains intoxicated on some drunken binge of his own narcissistic personality disorder that just keeps him marginally above the rim of the tank."
It's cute when you try to be literary. I like your endless, bizarre theories to explain how anyone could disagree with your perfect, necessary war.
"I wonder how soon this Troll of Trolls will sink into oblivion, drowning in the empty fluids of his own self-delusional perceptions of self."
More toney literary conceits! Double A++! This alone is worth sticking around for. Also I seem never to tire of rubbing your face in your incompetent president and disastrous war. It's cool too to watch your reaction to the GOP becoming the white Southerner's party. How do you like that, by the way?

As for the loonie one's references to drunkenness, Kennedy is now, and has been for decades, a DRUNK and a womanizer. George W. Bush gave up booze decades ago - long before taking on the responsibilities as Governor of Texas and President of the United States. His Air National Guard duty and leftie rumors surrounding his alleged AWOL status then also have nothing to do with what his responsibilities are now.
So ... once again ... where are YOUR solutions?????

Not being able to come up with a solution doesn't preclude being able to see that a problem exists. You don't have to be able to drive to see that the car you're in is about to go off a cliff; you just have to have your eyes open. Just because one is not a doctor doesn't mean that one can't see that a friend is sick.
I understand that you're upset that this shmoe on the Huffington Post has wished Cheney ill. I understand that you want to spend a lot of time writing about it and slapfighting Earl. Don't we have bigger fish to fry, though? In the end, who really cares about this guy? Is obsessing about this guy going to make the world a better place? I'm guessing not.
Let's not sweat the inconsequential stuff. I say the car's going off the cliff; I'm guessing you say it isn't. I see a country full of death and destruction that we brought about by our invasion, and you see something else.
Tell me about what you see. Why do you think that our visions are so divergent? Is Bush really the guy we want at the wheel right now?

"Do you or Earl or anyone pointing the accusatory fingers have actual solutions? Then tell the newly anointed Democrat saviors in the House and Senate. They need some new ideas. Haven't seen any there yet - just some in-fighting."
I already said, I haven't a clue about what to do in Iraq. W's plan is to "stay the course" -- or has it never been "stay the course"? Anyway he's going to leave it to his successor. So the shoe fits you pretty well too.
"George W. Bush gave up booze decades ago - long before taking on the responsibilities as Governor of Texas and President of the United States. His Air National Guard duty and leftie rumors surrounding his alleged AWOL status then also have nothing to do with what his responsibilities are now."
That is only in Clown World, where 'moral compass' is the primary job qualification. Here on Earth we care about what we call 'experience' and 'qualifications'. We see drunk, drug addict, playboy, arrest record, Christian who doesn't go to church, unskilled, poor servicemen, twice failed executive, and we think, "Bad!" I'd say it's all a matter of opinion, but it's not. You're just wrong.
And, yes, the jig's up, Spy.
Posted by: Earl at November 26, 2006 06:16 PM (yXuTl)
Now that is what I do call an inconvenient truth, isn't it? It's not your job to have some ideas? It is not your job to be an involved American? It is only your job to constantly criticize? Is it not your job to choose those who govern. Do you do that without forethought? Just a shot in the dark? Too complex to actually get involved in the process?
I just loved those lame analogies. I really liked the car one and approaching the edge of a cliff. So, if you don't know how to drive you don't even grab for the steering wheel? So, if your friend is sick and you're not a Doctor, you don't at the very least take him/her to the Doctor's office? You just sit on your ass and make observations? What a fine guy you are ....
Posted by: Retired Spy at November 26, 2006 06:22 PM (Xw2ki)
That's actually pretty funny, I tip my hat to you.
The page of quotes you provided is not even a fig leaf. Whether or not some Dems thought military force was a good idea, this war is the fault of W. There's no debate on this point. (Maybe in Clown World your sources show that Clinton started the war, but whatever.) Here on Earth, everybody knows it was W. W conceived it, lied for it, failed to realize it would turn into an occupation, thought it would be a cakewalk, thought we'd be greeted as liberators, thought Saddam had WMD, thought it was a good idea to fire the Iraqi army, etc etc etc. W W W W W. No if's and's or but's.
It's charming how you guys stick up for him -- he's just the little ol' president, and he got lied to by Tenet and Blair, those meanies. But here on Earth, the president is responsible. I thought you repubs were good about personal resposibility, by the way?

You know he was a drunk playboy. That's not even in doubt. He doesn't deny that or cocaine use, he just won't talk about it, and unlike Dems, he doesn't have to answer those questions.
I described his 'service' in the Guard. He skipped a physical and got grounded, switched to mail detail in Alabama where no one saw him, left that early for HBS. That is a poor serviceman.

To extend the car/cliff metaphor: I guess I did try to take the wheel. That's what the midterm elections were about. Millions of Americans all tried to take the wheel out of Bush's hands. Unfortunately, nobody gets to climb into the driver's seat until January 20, 2009, but people can do the bast they can do until then. The plan? Drive away from the cliff. That's why so many Progressives are calling for some form of troop drawdown. The details differ, but the basic idea is to do the opposite of what is not now working.

Allow me to enlarge somewhat O Lord upon this particular thanks. Despite six years of suppurating drivel from his catamites about leadership and inner strength and Christian fortitude and courage under fire: George W Bush is, was and always will be that sneering, leering little creep who came to school in a chauffeur-driven car, yelled racist epithets at the scholarship kids, tripped up the guy on crutches, stuck his paw up the dress of any girl he pleased, had his toadies beat up anyone smart or weak or different, insulted teachers to their faces - and got away with it all, because his Dad had just endowed the new sports stadium.

Who the hell are you to judge anything about anyone? You are the one who claimed Bush is/was a "drunk, drug addict, playboy, [had an] arrest record, [is a] Christian who doesn't go to church, unskilled, poor servicemen (SIC), twice failed executive." Using drugs at one time does not make someone an addict. Dating more than one woman does not make a man a playboy. Not attending church regularly does not make a man a heathen.
You, Earl, are a pathetic little fool.

What's Arbusto at now? I bet the market cap is still lofty from W's stewardship. Did W get grounded in the Guard or not? You're okay with the fact that W was a cocaine user? He's talked about drinking problems. Not having much of a job, spending a lot of money, drinking a lot and partying doth make for a playboy, no matter many women he dated. Tell me how I'm wrong.
