This is WAR

UNHINGED Given what's going on, may I suggest that persons announcing they have, or will, convert to Islam be considered to have joined  ISIS and dealt with accordingly. 'Invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity'  - Ann Coulter

Living Hell

The Great War Diary

If the idea was to bring you, as close as is possible, to living through hell—then mission accomplished.  There is one episode, #7 I think, that inexplicably replays whole parts of previous episodes, but you have to watch because it also contains the fate of Cossak girl.  Else I'd  give it 5 stars.  Here's Episode One.

Bombs Over Tokyo, etc.

WAR

I've touched on this before, but I'm rankled again. In our nation's history, approx14,300,000 Americans have served during wartime, with approx 2,800,000 of them being killed or wounded.  I was a student at UM when Jack Kennedy announced on television details of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Three of us jumped into my car and drove to Baltimore to enlist.  Just like that.  Alas, recruiting stations were closed at 9 PM,  so we went to the Block and saw some strippers instead, but the point is made.  I imagine that over the years quite a few Americans  felt the same call to action.  That's raw patriotism.   Not all ran to enlist at first bugle of course.  My own father, and step father, were both drafted.  Dad took a Nazi mortar shell directly; my step dad a sniper's bullet, but he survived.  I think if you asked all 14 million who served in wartime why they were fighting, all would have answered,  in some fashion, "to protect our country from the rat bastards trying to destroy it."  That includes both armies in the War of Rebellion, rat bastards being a relative thing.  If you further asked them to be more specific, the answers could I think be distilled down "to protect our freedom."  For the past 50 years some Americans who share ideologies copacetic with what King George, the Kaiser, the Nazis, the Japs, the Communists, and radical Islamos had in mind for us (total subjugation)  have increasingly gained control of our ship of state's machinery.  There is not a lick of difference between today's Democrat Party and the Communist Party, USA of the 1950s.  None.  To wit: the CPUSA fielded a candidate in every U.S.  presidential election from 1925 until 1988—when they began just endorsing the Democrat candidate.  For the same reason then that I hate Communism, I hate today's elected Democrats, and the useful idiots who serve them.  They are deceitful and focused liars, the lot. And endorsed by the CPUSA. All to bring me to this point.  If you, like me, see us engaged in an ideological war for the very soul of the United States, then what, pray tell, are the differences between this struggle and being in a frozen foxhole in 1951 Korea?  Most everyone in this forum have already enlisted, and wear the uniform proudly.   Our common goal: Destroy the uniformed Obamunist enemy.  But, more hateful—in any war—are those who wear our uniform, infiltrate our lines, and  sabotage from within.  So heinous a crime that international rules of war allow the summarily execution of them when captured. The GOP’s War On Obama’s Executive Action Lasted About 5 Minutes Two Words.  Boehnor; Ilk    The greatest penalty, indeed a political death penalty for that lot, is being stripped of any leadership role by the GOP caucus.  And  replaced with those who understand that we are in a war for our survival. Boehnor must be replaced.  If the Republican caucus have a sense of duty, he will be, in January if not today.

Son, Control the Skies

All politics is agency theory

“

[...] Agency theory also explains why elected officials and voters do what they do. Some will argue re-election is the primary goal of an elected official. Others will argue the main goal of the office holder is to serve the needs of constituents. Elected officials will say they cannot serve the needs of constituents unless the voters put them back in office, but voters won’t re-elect someone who ignores their wishes. Here’s an example. In August, 80 GOP members of Congress sent what is now called a “suicide pact” to House Speaker John Boehner urging the de-funding of Obamacare, even if that meant tying it to the continuing appropriations bill and forcing a partial shutdown of the government. Rep. Blake Farenthold from Corpus Christi was one of them. “Listen, we’ve got to use what few leverage points we have in a divided government, and the continuing resolution is one of them,” he said This goes a long way to understanding why President Obama continues to say he will not negotiate on the Affordable Care Act. Mr. Obama will never again face voters, so finding a solution that is in their best interests is no longer in his. Add to that the fact that everyone now calls the act Obamacare. Hard-core politicians will not break the current political impasse for the reasons just laid out. Only someone willing to put aside personal ambition or legacy will come up with a workable solution. [Fullness] Like most discussions about the CR "crisis," this one is rooted in the idea that because the founders designed spirited debate into the system, this is normal give and take.   Where clear thinking leaders on both sides will come to an accommodation worthy of a great nation.  They choose to ignore, or haven't a clue, that we are engaged in a great ideological civil war, testing whether  our nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated to accommodating  a megalomaniac's grand design can long endure. This cannot end well in the short term.  Long term victory will go the most fervently dedicated.    And who control  the sky.

Forgive them, they know not what thaey have done. They're just stupid.

My God. It's like we were Jewish and some of our kids voted for Hitler! Voting For Obama Keeps Families Away From Each Other For Thanksgiving “ Each Thanksgiving, Davidson typically loads up his family and makes the 130-mile drive to his parents’ house. This year, Davidson will take the kids to wife Kim’s family instead, but even that could be tricky: They are conservative as well. So Brian and Kim will try to avoid any topics that could lead, they say, to “an Obama rant” around the table. “Anything can cause it,” Brian says. “We’re just going to suck it up.” Don't let this happen in your family.  Simply disinherit any who voted for the sumbitch, and be gracious.  Actually. you won't have to disinherit them;  Obama will have done that in short order.  Maybe some Ex-Lax in their cranberry sauce?  Hide the TP.  ”
