Obama Administration: Hey, Since We're Giving Iran the Bomb and All, Maybe We Need a Missile Defense After All, Huh?

Fundamentally transformed.

Meanwhile, Chris "Chaplinsky" Cuomo-- who only got into Fordham Law School despite his dad being, you know, Governor of New York and all -- actually gets spanked by, get this, Vox.

Meanwhile, a would-be asteroid mining company has sent out its first probe, to look for asteroids it can mine gold out of.

Um, this is probably silly, but I don't care. I want escape.

Meanwhile, Jonah Goldberg called it.

Meanwhile, a three year old was traumatized when two black men did a home invasion of his home. In the victim statement part of the sentencing, the parents said the kid was emotionally scarred, to the point where he fears black men. Well, the black judge hearing this case was outraged... at the parents and at the three year old, for being so racist.

Meanwhile, the Political Organization Fox News is trying to get the politics of the Garland attack right -- rather than trying to get the principle right. Most of its hosts, who are largely pretty useless, think it's more important to condemn Pam Geller than to stand up for an American making unpopular -- but legal and politically relevant -- speech.

Martha McCallum counsels that we can only speak about Islam in a "Christian way," which I guess is too bad for Pam Geller, who is Jewish, as well as myself, being an agnostic.

Meanwhile, JWF has rounded up media hatred of free speech, including the useless bobble-head Matha McCallum telling Jews to get right with Jesus.

Meanwhile, Charles C.W. Cooke does something I thought was impossible: He makes me interested in the British elections.

The kink here is that even though Labour would win in any other year -- Labour is going to be wiped out in Scotland, possibly losing every seat they have there, to the Scottish nationalists, and that makes this all an unpredictable thing.

Meanwhile: In the meantime.

But they could have a bomb in 3 months, so maybe we should have some sort of missile defense.

43 Oh, I might know something about talking about Islam in the Christian way!

There is also the superstition of the Ishmaelites which to this day prevails and keeps people in error, being a forerunner of the Antichrist. They are descended from Ishmael, [who] was born to Abraham of Agar, and for this reason they are called both Agarenes and Ishmaelites.

From that time to the present a false prophet named Mohammed has appeared in their midst. This man, after having chanced upon the Old and New Testaments and likewise, it seems, having conversed with an Arian monk, devised his own heresy.

Then, having insinuated himself into the good graces of the people by a show of seeming piety, he gave out that a certain book had been sent down to him from heaven. He had set down some ridiculous compositions in this book of his and he gave it to them as an object of veneration.

55 As has been related, this Mohammed wrote many ridiculous books, to each one of which he set a title. For example, there is the book On Woman, in which he plainly makes legal provision for taking four wives and, if it be possible, a thousand concubines, as many as one can maintain, besides the four wives.

He also made it legal to put away whichever wife one might wish, and, should one so wish, to take to oneself another in the same way. Mohammed had a friend named Zeid. This man had a beautiful wife with whom Mohammed fell in love. Once, when they were sitting together, Mohammed said: Oh, by the way, God has commanded me to take your wife.The other answered: You are an apostle. Do as God has told you and take my wife.

96 I like how the judge was all, "yeah ok so I concede that the little girl probably isn't a racist, maybe....but she learned that from somewhere and it must be because her parents are racists!!!!!!"


Yeah, she learned it from "somewhere" you racist fuck. A black man terrorized her and stuck a gun in her father's face in their own home. That thug is the one to taught her to be afraid of black men, no one else.

Nah, not silly at all. The rest of the solar system has vastly more natural resources than Earth has. Getting to them is the hard part. Baby steps.

In other space news, SpaceX conducted a successful test of their launch abort system this morning. I wasn't able to mention it on the morning thread because I was trying to get to work early to watch it there, instead of watching it at home and getting to work late.

it just kind of says the whole "you have a choice in elections" thing is a lie.

If campaigns are purposefully losing. Because the candidate "never really wanted to be president, just wanted to run".

Kind of makes it seem like we don't have a choice who runs the country.

188 "I think McLame hated Sarah Palin every bit as much as his useless campaign staff."

Really, Palin should have told him to take a walk when he called.

"Drat. I hate this newfangled technology. Is this thing on? It is? All right. Can you hear me? I need you to help save this country, Samantha. Er, what? Oh, SARAH. That's right. Sarah. Sorry, I took a few knocks on the head during the war. Anyway, Sabrina, you're my first choice for Vice President. That is, once the party elders told me I couldn't have the former Democrat from Connecticut who I actually wanted for my running mate.

I regarded that as her repaying a favor (he did bring her to national prominence) and gave her a pass. I wouldn't want to see her do it again, though.


But yes, clearly his staff hated her and tried to undermine her. Which basically helped cripple their entire election effort. Kind of makes you wonder if they threw the fight, no?

There was an article at PJM a while ago which suggested that his pick of an unknown governor as VP was a strategy designed to fail, like "The Producers". Nobody expected her to become a smash hit. Food for thought.

254 This thing about blaming Pamela Geller for provoking an attack is a liberal trap. It's the fear of an abused wife who tells her children, don't make your father angry, you know how he gets when he has been drinking.

You grow up walking on egg shells, tip toeing around, trying to not get into trouble. You are afraid to try to succeed at anything because if you do, your father gets jealous and you get beat up, or your mother gets slapped around. You turn angry and rebellious, or you shut up and hide, and you never learn how to bond with anyone because you are always afraid they will turn on you. So you end up paranoid, bitter, and angry with a hair trigger, like a bomb waiting to detonate.

McCain ran in '08 to give a middle finger to the conservatives that voted for W in '04.

He's a crotchety, ignorant, self important old Fcuk that needs to remove himself from public.

No, the issue is that you're not supposed to say things like that in polite company any more, because white people are not allowed to notice race (its a social construct, dont you know) while black people are supposed to be nothing beyond their race ("black brothers" if you will, which is why R blacks get so hated on, they broke beyond the 'racial boundary').

So this judge hopes he silenced future victims from even mentioning something like this, even if true, because white people are NOT ALLOWED to ever say anything negative about any one other than other white people.

I don't think I have any sirens nearby for any reason, but if one did go off, I'd probably just get drunk and hope it didn't mean anything.

Because if it did, I imagine I'd be fucked.

478 The tornado that hit the St. Louis airport a few years ago went through my neighborhood. I was in the closet with my dog sitting next to me, when I started to feel intense pressure in my ears. I was expecting to see the worst when we walked out. It was just EF 0 right around my place. Lost a tree and a mailbox, and had drywall ceiling pop off the garage.

It went EF 2 around a quarter mile from us, and EF 4 just over a mile away for a short stretch, and started leveling some houses.

The good thing is the forecasting is getting better. On that one they sounded the sirens a good 30-45 mins before, and nobody died.

494 141 I never understood Hitler's desire for land. Germany had more than enough. No way could Germany govern or hold on to all the land they grabbed.

Posted by: Bruce J at May 06, 2015 08:45 PM (iQIUe)


The desire for land started long before Hitler. Germany tried to establish a "New Germany" colony in Texas back in the 1840s. If it weren't for some bad financial moves by some German princes, it probably would have succeeded.

As recently as the sixties, there were small towns in the Hill Country where German was the primary language spoken at home and in the schools. German names are very common here.

I'm one-eighth German and my German ancestors came over as part of the Adelsverein (the name of the organization) but were left stranded in Indianola. They ended up staking a claim southwest of Gonzales.

499 Labour would win without the SNP (and will still provide the Prime Minister, because the SNP and Labour will do a deal).

But this is only because the system is tipped in their favour (more constituencies in Labour areas, which means they win more seats with fewer votes) plus they have slowly (over decades) been perfecting the art of creating a client electorate by creating more public sector employees, bribing more people with benefits, and importing millions of new people who tend to vote Labour).

It's worse here than there - we don't even have guns!
