Maybe Obambi was going to lower the sea levels by opening up a big hole in the Gulf of Mexico. Of course he needed the help of his pals at BP. Once the oil comes out, seawater can go back down and the ocean level will be lower. Voila!

Verum Serum's Stalker Joe McGinniss Reveals His Cards is worth the read. Here, referring to a Washington Post article, a telling quote.

“

By being here, I have learned things, and I’ve gotten an insight into her character, into her ability to incite hatred, that before I only knew about in the abstract.

”

"So stalker Joe knew about her “ability to incite hatred” before this, but now he really knows?"

Then, a comment by daddy strikes gold.

“

daddy
McGinnis first came to Alaska in 1976. In an interview with the ADN (Anchorage Daily News) on 22 May 1976, he discussed his latest book, “Heroes”:

As Joe McGinniss tells you in his new book “Heroes”, there aren’t any.

“I had a theory” McGinness writes “America no longer had national heroes as it once did because the traditional source of heroes had dried up.” Because of Vietnam, because of WaterGate, the computer, television, social upheaval, and general disenchangement, modern men have feet of clay.

McGinniss went on a personal search for heroes, to meet William Westmoreland, Eugene McCarthy, George McGovern, Daniel Berrigan, Joe Hooper,..William Styron and others.
Rising out of interviews with potential heroes, former heroes, and might-have-been-heroes is McGinniss’s conclusion: “There are no heroes because there are no heroic acts to perform”…

The book is an outward search of the people beneath the hero myth, but it is also an inner search, to peel away his own fears and frustrations and come to some self-understanding.
He chronicles much of his life for the reader and plots his own self awareness journey. As McGinniss tells it, he grew up in Rye N.Y, as the only son of an alcoholic mother and a father who didn’t know how to behave as one…Then at 26 he found himself bewildered at the course of his life, married with three children, but in love with another woman…
snipped text

So according to McGinniss’s own theory, you cannot be a hero in America if you let the Press get close to you, so therefore Sarah Palin let me get close to you since I’m the Press, and if you don’t invite me in kindly to tear you down as a hero, then you are inciting hatred, just like Neil Armstrong and Bob Dylan who wouldn’t talk to me either so that I could personally tear them down.

McGinniss strikes me as that cartoonish bad guy (Syndrome) in the Pixar movie “The Incredibles.” He has a desperate personal condition because he’s not a hero, therefore he purposefully goes out to destroy real heroes since he isn’t one himself and he doesn’t want real heroes around to remind guys like himself that he’s not one. He’s a psychological mess.

Just another drunk Boston Irish democrat, wot?

One of the things about a stalker is how hard they deny they are actually "stalking" when the get caught doing it. They also get real upset when they are put under surveillance.

If I understand correctly his publisher is Random House. I can't seem to find a burning need these days to buy any of their products.

Sorry, Rog. I hold the patent on this. I've doing it with broccoli for 20+ years. It's simple: treat cut plants like a florist does.

It also works with carrots as long as the greens are left on. If the greens are cut off, they will take in water and swell until they split, which really doesn't hurt them.

Change the water every few days or it gets nasty.

The Kompleat Obamacy
Obama administration moves to distance
itself from BP on oil spill response

Four days after conducting his Alexander Haig-ish "I'm in charge here" press conference, Teh Him is lawyering up.

“

Struggling to convey command of the worsening Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the Obama administration is taking steps to distance itself from BP and is dispatching Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. to the Gulf Coast to meet with federal and state prosecutors. The Holder trip could signal that the environmental calamity might become the subject of a criminal investigation. [Full]

”

So there it is. Obama and Democrats see this as tax revenue opportunity - that's what this is about. Why the hell not bring in the lawyers? We let them make strategic and tactical military decisions; maybe they can plug the phuking hole too.

ASIDE: I can't get "punks" out of my head.

Why not just tell all of the oil companies. You cap it you keep it. BP has proven they don't have the know how to stop this. Put some additional incentive into getting this under control. It also gives fair warning to others that if you can't handle the responsibility you won't get the reward.

WTF, does O-Bam think we're a bunch of idiots? After all the political dollars that BP funneled to his election, wouldn't ya say that the exec office directing a criminal probe against them would be somehow considered a conflict of interest? If he was serious about it, wouldn't you think he'd appoint an independent council to review the matter? Of course not! Because the HNIC knows that if the truth came out, the public would find out just how much Obama has been whoring it up BIG OIL. As our beloved Head Missy would say "Oh the ironing!" The way I see it, this is just another dog and pony show meant to blow more commie smoke up our collective asses! I sure hope we get enough control back of Congress in November so that we can impeach the living shit out of this MFCSCommie basterd!!! It would sure save ol' Rodge the trouble from having to drop a nuke so close to where he lives.

Billed for missing military gear

Military administrative SNAFUs are the stuff of legend, but this is coming from an Administration that wanted to charge Pfleider, and others, for his hospital care too.

“

Gary Pfleider, a former Oregon National Guard soldier, was shot by a sniper while on patrol in Iraq in September 2007. He has only vague memories of the event, but now must live with a permanent reminder -- a brace he'll have to wear on his leg for the rest of his life.

"I remember grabbing a hold of my leg, and realizing I had blood on my hands," he said. "And from that point on until I got loaded onto the Stryker was just a big blur."

Three days after he was shot, Pfleider received a Purple Heart.

Almost two years later, he received a bill from the military for missing equipment.

The sum of the bill, which includes interest, is $3,175. It itemizes a list of gear the military issued to Pfleider that did not come back with his unit in 2008. The lists includes clothing items, canteens and grenades. [Full]

Don't see why this wasn't written off as a "combat loss".

As a Brigade-level logistics officer, I dealt with lost equipment issues all the time during peacetime. There's an appeal process for this and anyone with any sense would just write this off as a loss to the government.

I retired in 1996 from the USN and I wonder every day what has happened to our military leadership? We have these incredible selfless young people who are treated like crap by the bean counters and yet they keep giving their all. When the army was more concerned about their diversity program than the dead soldiers at Ft. Hood, I decided these modern warriors have determined to serve despite the lack of leadership at the top. I don't know how they do it. Well, yes I do and God bless them.
