ONT-88 Lines About 44 Congressmen

Kamala was an AG once
Bent the law to her own whim
Cory was a different type
He invented all his friends
Charlie was an orange guy
I've never seen a tan like that
Charles avoided taxes
claimed he couldn't do the math

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Susan was a RINO girl
She really should have a D
Lindsey was a spending wiz
Grabbed all the pork he could see
Lisa had a special way
of switching parties, right or wrong
Joni Ernst who cut a pig
Went to DC and played along

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Al was a real cruel turn
A funnyman who's just a joke
Tim said he's Virginia's best
His VP turn went up in smoke
Lizzy was a feminist
She really had that gift of gab
Maxine's point of view was this
Take whatever you can grab*

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Benjamin, heartland's pride
For family values he sets his cap
Rand likes to tie bills up
Libertarian, like his pap
Justin's trying hard to block
Weapons for the Saudi rage
Markwayne, a handyman
baby face, looks half his age

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Ellison, he's not a jew
Prays to Allah with all his might
Bernie's a progressive hack
More government is his big fight
Elija, who knew no shame
Calls himself Maryland's pride
Sheila's bombast comes so fast
We can't wait to say goodby

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm


Andy has a house in Maryland
The only 'pubbie from that state
Jerry has a house in Kansas
Ran a bank, was never late
John's head is mostly empty
He heard the presidential call
Teddy C is much too cagey
Solid values, iron balls

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Uh-huh, that's Teddy
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Patty thinks Congress is simple
Has the brain power of a moth
Anthony is understated
Lost to Hogan cuz of sloth
Joseph is a real patrician
His uncle used MJ for bait
Richard is a rich attorney
Stolen valor and veteran hate.

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Martha was a music major
She came from Montgomery
Mia's parents came from Haiti
Out west she found her destiny
Jimmy Jordan gives a fuck
All about his YouTube roots
David's strange obsession
Was to make government moot

Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm
Hmmmm HmmHmmmmHmmHmmm

Bobby was a Panther founder
His district is a shoot-em-up
Benji C doesn't bother
Reelections left to luck
Chuckie Schumer has a problem
Leaving citizens alone
Sarbanes, Jr, has his father
To thank for throwing him a bone

Mike Lee joined the freedom band,
He's as wily as a fox
Lamar, a Texan, 21st
Had to deal with being doxed
Tim he doesn't give a shit
When libbies shout out Uncle Tom
Trey who needs a haircut badly
Tells the Libs “Let's get it on”

Tammy Duckworth, Chicago lady
Likes to think she leads the way
Diane runs her Senate office
In the San Francisco way
Sherrod came from Ohio
Grabs for guns, with his fist
Nancy monumental bitch
I chose you to end this list

88 lines about 44 Congressmen


"Try new things" they said. "It'll be fun" they said. Well, I'm trying a new thing. Lets see if it's fun or a disaster.

*I tried for 20 minutes but I couldn't improve on these 4 lines

The last election cut my "friend" list in half, mostly due to my over the top posts after 9:00 p.m. election night. I feel better for the experience.

I was born and raised in a Chicago suburb. Most of those that went bye bye were from High School, and I had seen some of them once at a 30th Reunion.

Posted by: Robert, Former ONT Staple, has a broken G key at June 22, 2017 09:48 PM (mknWS)

I was really into REM and saw them twice in the early '80's and they actually made pretty good music right up to the end. But Stipe is a full-fledged shit-Lefty with a long white beard, a nose ring and horn-rimmed glasses. He looks like a smelly homeless guy even though he's a multimillionaire.

I'm not sure anymore.

Back even before his editor-at-large gig at NRO, he was a lot more approachable via email since the whole G-file and blog thing was so new. He and I traded a few emails (I hasten to add I had no unusual access like this...Goldberg was just good at answering emails...) and he was a bit different back then. It's hard to describe. I don't know if his marriage changed him, or fatherhood did, or something, but there has been a change and I'm very disappointed in it. He turned into what he used to make fun of.

Jonah just falls in the George Will "coarse and vulgar man" Trump hate.

The Never Trump crowd made realize something about "our" conservative intelligentsia. They and I are really very far apart.

Accurately plotting political position requires far more than one dimension, many more in fact. At any one time, "left-right" just aligns along some axis in that multi-dimensional space. And some axis that happens to be relevant to the current state of affairs.

So, since the '80s, my projection along that current axis was close to George Will and all that. But really, we're very apart in the higher space.

That gets exposed when there is a "realignment", and that's what Trump and Trumpism is.

Note they are of the same elite stock as the lefties. Same schools, same culture. They hate us just as much as the leftists do. "Coarse and vulgar" commoners, we are.

193 Off on on for about a week my son has been playing some song by "The Rolling Stones" with a lyric, "Don't play with me or you'll play with fire." If i hear it for much longer I may bang my head against a wall. I've decided I don't like Mick Jagger, although he evidently keeps young by still performing and his fans enjoy him. Amostl of his songs except for "Can't get no satisfaction" are self aggrandizing as if he's saying. I'm such a sexy stud. "She's under my thumb" O.K. Mick. You had a lot of women and lots of money,,,,,,and I'm supposed to care...why exactly?
---

LOL. "Play with Fire" is one of my very favorite Stones songs. That's really early Stones, from the late 60's. Same era as "Get Off Of My Cloud," "19th Nervous Breakdown" and "Paint it Black."

They write about a lot of different things; I found out the song "Bitch" is about heroin addiction. Then there's "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and "Sympathy for the Devil." The annoying Mick sex songs have just registered more with you since they're overplayed.

I really like a lot of the Stones music, however, I cannot stand watching Mick perform live. It's like he's a skinny human rooster.

Of course you have to ignore the silly lyrics. Just like with Tori Amos - good music, silly lyrics.

Eno best summed up the state of music lyrics and meaning in Sky Saw (Another Green World).

Which brings up the fact that the best music to come out of the 70s was Roxy Music and Eno's solo albums.

The UC-Davis debate team cancelled their appearance at the national finals held in Lawrence, Kansas this year. Lawrence, Kansas! It's a wretched hive of scum and villainy & in the most liberal county of Kansas.

Like everywhere, university towns of more that 50,000 in the metro area are all pretty liberal in policy, and that is especially true in Lawrence.
So even their data is wrong. Plus, Kansans are a pretty easy-going group even in the rural areas. Hey, they put up with me.

The usage of "out of pocket" to mean out of reach, incognito, goes back to at least 1908, and it's a Southernism.

There are three meaning. The first simply means "paid out of petty cash" and variations.

There is a third one, which is Brit, that means "broke". Ie, "I'm out of pocket", means flat broke.

343 Baby Sister Update:

From her friends Kris, Lynne and Lisa (who flew in from Minnesota to visit with her):

"Yesterday we played some games on Joyce's iPad, she did math problems, and we took her shopping. She was in heaven with Nutter Butter cookies and Blue Moon beer we found at Walmart! She's been asking to go swimming, so after lunch we got her in the pool and she sat on the steps for a while, walked in the water (with a little help) and played water basketball. Hubby made another delicious dinner and we worked on some of her activity books.

She can write and spell very well! Joyce continues to amaze us with her positive attitude, her endless gratitude toward anyone who helps her, and the grace she demonstrates while going through this difficult disease. She is teaching us all so much. We all love her and are grateful for every minute with her."

Please pray that she continues on a path toward healing.

[To my fellow Hordelings, thank you all in advance for your prayers and well-wishes for my sister and our family.]

The origin of the "icognito" meaning of the phrase was apparently first seen in official print (whatever they dictionaries use as official citations) in 1908.

It's etymology is unclear, but there is speculation that it was a phrase used by the cops first to mean they had lost a suspect or a prisoner. He slipped out of their pocket.

I'd like to ask the Horde's prayers for my brother, who recently had his second leg amputated below the knee (diabetic complications). He's been in intensive rehab hoping he can get a second prosthesis soon but he said his insurance won't pay for any more therapy and he is really, really depressed about it. Usually he's pretty upbeat but he did not sound good tonight...

Posted by: Cosmic Charlie at June 22, 2017 10:39 PM


There was a ton of good shit coming out of both sides of the atlantic during that time. The late 80's is when things started to get a bit iffy and stereotyped "80's" kicked in. The major labels had adjusted to combat the indie onslaught from the late 70's to mid 80's and there was an increasing amount of formula stuff. MTV didn't help things.

472 PASADENA >> What began as an investigation into public urination at a Pasadena Gold Line station on Wednesday led deputies to seize two guns, high-capacity magazines, suppressors and a machete from the suspect's duffel bag, authorities said.

Deputies first approached a man about 9 a.m. after spotting a man relieving himself in a planter along the sidewalk outside the Sierra Madre Villa Gold Line Station at Madre Street and Foothill Boulevard, Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said.

The deputies confronted the man about the offense, and the suspect provided them with what turned out to be a false name, according to Deputy Katherine Zubo of the sheriff's Transit Policing Division, who took part in the arrest. The man was carrying a duffel bag with him.

A search of the suspect's bag turned up a loaded AR-15-style rifle, fitted with two 30-round magazines and a suppressor, as well as a .40-caliber pistol with a high-capacity magazine and a suppressor and a large machete-style knife, Sheriff Jim McDonnell said. The bag also contained a notebook full of writings and a Bible. He was booked for weapons violations.

But the music was no better or worse than that now. Most of it was shit, but mercifully we've forgotten about that, and only remember the good stuff.

I'm a sucker for 70's bubblegum. It was awesome. At the time, I was about 50's and 60's stuff and didn't really appreciate the 70's. It didn't dawn on me until the 80's that I was being spoiled by quality and quantity in the 70's and that even the throwaway stuff was pretty good. The 60's may have had greater high points and innovation, but the 70's had breadth. Those K-Tel compilations of cheese were a goldmine of second or third tier stuff that have a ton of charm and feeling. Much more so than the 60's throways (with exceptions).

"Jerry has a house in Kansas
Ran a bank, was never late"

Got me thinking. Two friends tried to get Senator Roberts thrown off the ballot for not living in Kansas. The deep state counterattacked, and lied to cover up. My Friends were threatened.

About Jerry Moran: He didn't run a bank, he was staff. Mostly a lawyer and politico. He does live in town.


I have no clue. I don't know details about 44 congresscritters (or at least not 44 whose names alliterate properly for the song).

I was looking for a republican (did you notice the verses alternate parties?) with a name ending in y to pair with Andy Harris, and he was listed on Wiki with his profession "banker". I have no idea if he was never late either. Sorry.

498 you are right, the 80s that everyone usually thinks of is 83 to 88 or so. the 70s were still seeping into the 80s until 83, despite my efforts to hunt them down with The Shovel, and the 90s started seeping in from 88.

That's about right. Another radio programmer had a theory once that makes sense to me about cycles in pop music. A new sound takes root, becomes more popular in a few years, then dominates. After people burn out on that, there's a "doldrums" period before the next cycle begins. Each cycle lasts about ten years, and since the rock and roll era is generally pegged as starting in 1955, the mid-decade being the start of a new cycle makes sense.

I'm not sure that theory still holds today. The internet seems to have speeded that up.

AJ does have some gated subdivisions, and I am sure there are condos. No high-rise buildings, and you are 10 minutes from open desert, and 30 minutes from Sky Harbor.

Instead of a condo, you might want to consider a "park model" mobile home in a 50+ park. Many of these are gated, well-maintained, and have a pool and other amenities. Inhabited mostly by snowbirds and other retirees, they tend to be to expensive for "trailer trash" folks.

I don't remember the exact quote, but Allen Ginsburg said something similar. The "Fifties" started around 1955, and the "Sixties" around 1965. In 1975 we were getting the first glimmerings of both punk rock and disco.

While stationed at Ft. Devens (late 1993 to early 1994), I had a roommate that would play that song all the time. I told her to stop, but she wouldn't. So I got her back two months later. Her "boyfriend/soon-to-be baby's father" had transferred to Pensacola and had stopped all communication with her. So every day she would come into the room crying about how he hadn't called or written to her. I would play Toni Braxton's "Seven Whole Days" nonstop. Needless to say she moved out of the room a few weeks later.

Is Joyce able to walk on her own. I'm so happy for you that Joyce is out and about enjoying her life. Saw FIL last week and he's in a wheel chair and Can only walk with a walker and assistance. I wish his wife would let him enjoy the things he is still able to, like good food instead of worrying about fat, salt, sugar, etc. for fucks sake she won't even let him have real ice cream. She bought some half fat, no sugar "ice cream". When she asked who wanted ice cream, I was thinking, "that's not fucking ice cream, I don't know what it is, but it's not ice cream". It was really depressing since it also felt like she didn't want us there and seemed to be trying to stop us from seeing him. We were there for 5 days and only got to see him 3 times, the last time was literally for 5 minutes when we just showed up unannounced to say good bye on the last day since she basically told us not to come over.

His nickname is "cougar". For him to live up to that, he'd have to be attracted to young men. Like Emmanuel Macron's wife. That would be a treat: John Mellencamp and his hubby as the first couple in 2020.

566 So, Don Kirshners son, Ricky Kirsher, is an absolute nut job who has his own production company. It's almost impossible for him to make a decision, at least that's what I hear.

He was the producer of the DNC national convention this year, and does the super bowl halftimes. I suspect he also produced Obama and the Roman Columns when that happened.

You know, maybe it was someone elses horse, and when he rented/borrowed/stole it he forgot to ask the name.

He couldn't re-name the horse, because the horse already had a name that he, the rider, did not know. And the horse probably wouldn't respond to a different name. He had a name, dammmit!

I will say though, MTV probably had a lot to do with some of the metal genre splitting off and evolving into that god forsaken hair band shit.

637 Horse is slang for heroin, in case you did not know that.

I think "A Horse with no Name" was about trying to go cold turkey and quit heroin.
But that's not what people heard when the song was popular. It was just some goofy pop song.

"Jane" is another heroin slang (ie, Jane's Addiction).
"Sweet Jane" thought it was a love song about a girl named Jane, but was about using heroin to cut the boredom of life.

680 "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" heard a DJ tell a good story about that one. Dickie Betts wrote that song, at the time he was having regular back door meetups with the Boz Skagg's girlfriend, since he was out of town a lot. She wanted him to write a song for her, like girls who hang out with musicians do. Well, he couldn't very well name the song for her, but they used to go do the nasty in a nearby cemetery on a blanket, since it was usually a pretty quiet place.

The name on the closest gravestone to their favorite make out spot was Elizabeth Reed.

Yeah no doubt. For me, metal started losing its way around '84. Iron maiden was phoning it in with that Somewhere in Time album. Although there was a few good tunes, it wasn't the maiden I was used to. Judas priest's turbo album was pretty much a warning of the garbage to follow. When they did that ubergeigh "parental Guidence" I closed the book on them. Speed metal and thrash came on the scene, but a lot of that was mindless dribble, yet some was very good. Still, it wasn't really metal like the Ronny James Dio era of Sabbath, or Accept, or Metal church, or earlier Iron maiden, etc. It split, the heavier dudes went speed metal, and the freaks went hair metal.

Of course I went speed metal. lol

The Arlington Theater in Santa Barbara has a rather distinctive bell tower that looks like a hypodermic needle. Local lore (almost certainly bullshit) is that the architect was a morphine addict in the 1930s and designed the bell tower to resemble his obsession.

728 I listened to an interview with Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull one time. I assumed they had to be zooted on something but apparently not.

He claimed they never used drugs, but rather that their music was fueled by Lowenbrau.

On a separate note, when I was in college I asked this girl if she had ever heard Jethro Tull and she said "Oh yeah, I love him!".

I knew I was getting laid that night from that moment on.

738 Funny story (to me, anyway). Good college buddy of mine that was
heavily into music (like me) was hanging out drinking with me and my
wife and started talking about the "greatest drug songs". Wife - more
than a little naive - was blown away by some of the songs we talked
about.



So me, being an asshole, convinced her that Starland Vocal Band's
"Afternoon Delight" was about heroin. I even did the "skyrocket in
flight" while holding syringe upright, pressing plunger to remove air,
then "Afternoon Delight!" while mock-slamming needle into my arm.



you had to be there. actually the song is about fucking

740 Hunter is an absolute genius, and an underrated songwriter (widely respected, but STILL underrated). He loved riddles, is incredibly well-read - his songs are replete with biblical references, medieval poetry, obscure history etc.. Of course loved metaphors about the Wild West and gambling.

He loved to ask questions with his songs, but sure as shit wasn't interested in answering them for you. Which is why they're so great, you bring your own experience/interpretation to the table.

757 Yeah no doubt. For me, metal started losing its way around '84. Iron maiden was phoning it in with that Somewhere in Time album. Although there was a few good tunes, it wasn't the maiden I was used to. Judas priest's turbo album was pretty much a warning of the garbage to follow. When they did that ubergeigh "parental Guidence" I closed the book on them. Speed metal and thrash came on the scene, but a lot of that was mindless dribble, yet some was very good. Still, it wasn't really metal like the Ronny James Dio era of Sabbath, or Accept, or Metal church, or earlier Iron maiden, etc. It split, the heavier dudes went speed metal, and the freaks went hair metal.

Of course I went speed metal. lol

After Cliff Burton died, it was all down hill for them. "...and Justice for All" was a good album (pity they practically muted Newstead's bass), but the warning signs were there.

The Black Album is when they jumped the shark.

The Jeff Spencer character was supposed to be something of a player, and they'd show him reading "Playboy" occasionally on the show. That was really racy on TV at the time, I'm sure.

There's another completely different song where the chorus goes "Cocaine, all around my brain" which Bob Dylan has performed a number of times. I don't know who wrote that one and I'm getting too tired to look for it. There's one verse that stands out, though:

Cocaine is for horses
It's not for men

They do. The publisher, Take 2, went hard after mods and cheats that affected GTA Online. Well that's what they said. They also shut down a real popular one called Open IV which was supposed to only be able to affect the single player part of GTA, but Take 2 claimed it allowed exploiting the online side.

846 I loved Berserker's parody of The Devil Went Down To Georgia, at comment #120 of the "Why Tossoff Lost" thread from yesterday. Here it is, reposted for those who missed it...

The commies went down to Georgia
they were looking for a seat to steal
they were in a bind, 'cause they're way behind
and America's refusing to kneel

When they came across this man boy
wearing pajamas and diddling his twat
Soros jumped up on Hillary's rump
and said boy let me tell you what

You probably could have guessed it
But I'm a fellow commie too
And were running out of citizens
who we can tax and screw

Now you wear some fine pajamas boy
so give ol' satan his due
I got a mountain of gold to buy your soul
and take trump down a level or two

The boy said my name's jonny ossoff
with his hipster beta grin
maybe girls will like me
and mommy says I'll win

Jonny polish up your speech
and hone your line of shit
the Georgians see just what you are
you carpet bagging twit

If you win, the media will likely kiss your ass
but if you lose we're out a ton of cash


Jonny let them plead their case
and said lets start this show
the media spewed their talking points
hoping jonny's balls would grow
election day is ours said soros with an evil hiss
and as we all expected, it turned out just like this-





The Donald sat back in his chair
and said you're fuckin' done
so pull that thumb out of your ass
cause you're the reason why I won

Leftists flaming out one by one
pissing through cash by the metric ton
America spoke and is letting you know
Hillary as president no, hell no.


when Tuesday night was over
the left knew that it was beat
they stood around in silence
staring at their flaccid meat

The Trumpster said just come on back
just tell me where and when
'cause I told you silly assholes
America will be great again.

http://preview.tinyurl.com/kemh6s3

Related trivia: not only did the Soviets receive repeated, high-quality intelligence warnings from the British, and their own intel network (including the incredible Richard Sorge in Tokyo), but in the 48 hours before the invasion, several highly credible German military personnel defected across the lines with what turned out to be precise info on the start of the operation. Only at, literally, the 11th hour, did Stalin permit some movement and preparation in response to a particularly compelling defector who was debriefed on the eve of the attack.

877 Hey uncle Palp. I need to ask you something...ever since you did an autocucumber and turned some innocuous word to "Astrachan" i started wondering if i already know you. Especially since we both know the crappuness that is Seguin and the nothingness that is Nixon, Texas.

You know any Teke turkmen horse breeders?

884 Foo Fighters came about because of Kurt Cobain's suicide. Its a Dave Grohl vehicle. Foo Fighters was his side project. I don't know what would have happened had Cobain not blown his brains out. IMO, FF is a much better band than Nirvana ever was. Grohl seems like a pretty loyal guy though. Don't think he would have left Nirvana had Cobain not committed suicide.

Lou Reed refused to play that song for many years because junkies were misconstruing the lyrics and trying to turn it into some kind of narcotics anthem.

There's an audience recording from the late 70s, I think from NYC's Bottom Line, where he berates the audience for yelling out for him to play it, saying something like: "No. Because too many people don't listen to the lyrics. That song was about the horrors of that drug. I can't deal with knowing people are doing it because of that song."

899 Son of a bitch. Of course I'd have this kind of realization at 5 in the morning. The Left's suicidal alliance with Islam has been a topic I've done a lot of thinking about over the past month. I've come up with a few tenuous explanations, but they always run into a conclusion "The Left is Stupid", which is unsatisfying and likely false.

These people are bugf*** insane, but they're clever as all hell, and there has to be an explanation for how it all works. Here's the pieces, and how they link, as far as I've analyzed it.

1. Iranian Supremacy: Lefties seem to have no special love for the Saudis, but support normalizing relations with Iran. This is enough to indicate a clear preference, even without considering all of the highly-placed Leftists that have connections with Iran. Something about Iran furthers their agenda.

2. Two Religious Cults: Leftism is a cult that believes in no afterlife, and replaces God with an Almighty State that they believe can create an Earthly Paradise. The Iranian regime is an apocalypse cult that believes that it can set in motion a chain of events that will bring about the next revelation (and a perfect world), in the form of the 12th Mahdi. That would normally preclude the two of them working together, unless...

3. The help that harms: The Left must believe that by helping Iran's brand of Islam become the dominant form, and helping them do the things that they believe cause the apocalypse to happen, will result in a massive failure that destroys Islam's credibility. They then have an audience of 1.5 billion people with a destroyed worldview, who will either be easy to direct in their rage, or seek a new vision of perfection, which they can readily promise.

900 Posted by: Cato the Rebel Without a Party at June 23, 2017 06:02 AM (J+mig)

My take, and shorter version: Both pisslam and the proggie left believe in chaos, with both thinking they can control that chaos and come out winners. Throw in that old chestnut, paraphrased, 'the enemy of chaos is my friend', and you can see why the Left allies itself with pisslam.

Posted by: RickZ at June 23, 2017 06:09 AM (OFItL)

901 I had always figured their alliance was an alliance of convenience, to be discarded once the Great Satan as seen by both sides, aka us, are out of the way...

It's even simpler than that. It's one cult trying to disprove the other's dogma, to gain its following.

No, I don't think the left and pisslam are trying to disprove each other's dogma to gain the other's adherents. The left never criticizes pisslam or its policies ('Gays For Palestine' and '[Western] Women For Shari'a', e.g.). But I do agree that it is a marriage of convenience for both. And like I said, they both think they can come out winners. The left, however, are not students of real History. When the Iranian Islamic Revolution occurred back in 1978, one group prominently agitating for Khomeini's return was the Tudeh Party, the Iranian Communist Party; if you look at pictures of the mass rallies from back then, the communist flag was quite visible. Khomeini was more than willing to accept their help in his attaining his revolution. Then, once firmly ensconced in power, The Mad Mullahs put members of the Tudeh Party against a wall and shot them, along with other heretics and infidels, plus those who supported the Shah.

904 "Both pisslam and the proggie left believe in chaos"

One of my favorite recent (2011) novels is "A Fine Likeness" by Sean McLachlan, a supernatural horror tale set in Missouri during the late stages of the Civil War when Bloody Bill Anderson was on the rampage. (You can get it on Amazon). It depicts "chaos, division and disorder" as literally demonic forces, a sort of unholy trinity that some people willingly serve for their own ends, and others serve without realizing it. It's a very intriguing concept to me and it might explain a lot of what is going on now.

Yes, it's in the left game plan. Ally with anyone early, upset the old regime, then knife all your friends in the back and take power. There problem is that the Muslims have their own version of that game with a 1000 years of experience playing it.

And that's why I think that they don't intend for the "knife in the back" to ever look like a knife in the back. They intend to help the Ayatollahs in such a way that it'll destroy their foundation. They want to look like good, clueless allies until, in their moment of triumph, the Ayatollah's followers see that there is no glorious victory, just another day like any other. Then it's time to swoop in, pick up the pieces, and gain a huge recruiting windfall.
