   Karl – That was wrong.

   Consider yourself denounced, condemned, disowned, shunned, and a couple other words that I cannot recall. Plus, you owe me a monitor.

   Racists.

   Independence, MO. Where my ancestors were driven out of their homes and their land seized after the governor drew up an Extermination Act against Mormons. Independence, indeed.

   and for his speech on AIDS epidemics he will go to Fucking, Austria to make:

   F**king, Austria

   Yes, a town name that is a swear word. The correct way to actually pronounce the town name is “fooking,” which was founded in the 6th century after a man whose name was Focko. This town has a serious sign-stealing problem, as you can imagine. I guess people just don’t believe it when you tell them, “I’ve been to F**king, Austria!”

   I actually listened to this speech this morning, and once again, O! has proved himself to be a great “speechifier” (when tele-prompted). His words are well written, and delivered with aplomb.

   Too bad I can’t say that about the “Jimmuh” policies that he espouses. “Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it”. Isn’t that how it goes? I keep forgetting that the left has spent close to 40 years glossing over the nightmare of the Carter administration, and trying to paint Carter as some kind of saintly martyr.

   Those of us who lived through the seventies know that Carter was in WAY over his head, and was an absolute incompetent who almost wrecked this country’s economy beyond repair. You think gas is painful at $4.00 a gallon? Wait until Obama gets his way, and you have to wait three hours to get 10 gallons at $8.00 a gallon.

   Not to mention the fact that Carter parlayed insecurity and lack of personal self esteem into what he portrayed as a national trait. Anyone with two brain cells to rub together knows that “Jimmuh” was possibly the worst president in our history.

   The difference between Carter and Bush could not be more stark. The left hates Bush because they hate him, while the right has stacks and stacks of verifiable data (facts, for those who have been educated in government schools) to show just how much the country suffered under Carter. Bush’s “worst economy since the great depression” can’t hold a candle to the utter shittiness without end of “Carter’s economy”.

   Obama, like Carter, is threatening to drop America’s pants, and offer our ass up to the Iranians. The Iranians laughed their butts off when Carter did that. They couldn’t believe it. They were speechless that Carter offred THEM an apology! They thought that they were going to get bombed back to the stone age. Because of Carter, the Iranians are STILL laughing at America and think we are just a bunch of stupid dorks, who have had their balls cut off.

   And guess what? It’s looking like Obama wishes to reassure the Iranians that they can nuke whoever they want, and we will stick our butts up the air for them to do what they please with them – again.

   Carter was an idiot then, and is an even bigger idiot now. But the left still holds him up as some kind of mystical hero. They can get away with it because they have ruined our educational system, and somehow, have relegated “logic” to a distant last place on their scale of “education”.

   Ignorance seems to be emerging as the U.S.A.’s biggest domestic product.

   – TLD, Secular Progressive logic was conceived back about 15 years ago during the Clinton administration. Its called “fuzzy logic”, disguised by the unique result of any combination of input and output signals, the result of which is indeterminant by any normal common sense or logical process.

   – Rumor has it that the very first SecProgg babies mother was a lab technician, scared senseless by a fuzzy logic integrated chip, just before she delivered.

   – Thus the name I coined for them:

   FuzzyProgs

   BBH,

   I think we need to add one more “g”.

   “FuzzyProggs”.

   And I’m not quite sure that “fuzzy” quite describes the proggs.

   But, until I come up with a better zinger (which may be never), “FuzzyProggs” it is!

8. The Lost Dog says:

   June 30, 2008 at 6:31 pm

   Oh yeah.

   And BBH,

   For now, “logic” is to be scrubbed from our vocabulary. It is a word that means nothing good in the new FuzzyProgg world of painfully repeating the past.

   Sounds like the algorithms that James Hansen and Michael Mann use to “disappear” the medieval warm period.

    FTR, the word “progg” acquired its second G in honor of Rick Ellerson.

    dicentra and TMJ – I am going out to Park City next month. My brother says there is some huge celebration called Cinco de MoMo, or something like that.

    “I keep forgetting that the left has spent close to 40 years glossing over the nightmare of the Carter administration, and trying to paint Carter as some kind of saintly martyr.”

    With all due respect, I don’t recall any paeans to the Jimmy Carter deity until the early eighties.

    The press has changed. It is more overtly anti-establishment than it ever has been. Thing is, these tit-licking pud-jerks don’t realize they are now the establishment. The Repubs are simply their foil. It reminds of my favorite Orwell quote: SNOWBALL!!

    “SNOWBALL!!”

    Snowflake, I thought. But it’s been a long time.

    The words may change, but the meaning remains the same. Some are more equal than others.
