Gingrich Is Our Very Own Crazy Chalabi!

Gingrich is our own home-grown crazy Chalabi: Totally full of wacko B.S. and maniacally self-aggrandizing. Everything HE touches blows up in OUR faces.

Yes, he’s crazy. For instance, in 1996 while leading the House he got $18 million approved to overthrow the government of Iran and worked at it with the CIA. Consequently, about 20 U.S. airmen were killed in the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia because of it, and the whole matter dropped through the floor never to be heard about again.

Gingrich is our insane weirdo uncle who lives in an asylum attic, not Thurber-like but a Stephen King and Kafka version, in which he descends the attic stairs every so often with a dangerous and stupid idea that certain other asylum inmates like the sound of. More damage and death occurs, naturally, and then he climbs back into the attic and all memory of his mental illness seems to vanish by the time he descends the stairs again.

Many more Gingrich stories like the Khobar Towers story exist. Collect them all!

Joe Klein is a total douche.

I’ll put here what the HuffPost, for some reason, did not print (and I was not obscene).
I was at a panel lecture in September 2004, with Eleanor Clift, Joe Klein and Jon Meacham moderating, at the 92nd Street Y. Joe’s main contribution was to call Rove a political assassin. After the event, Eleanor Clift was happy to stand around for over an hour talking to “informed voters” but Klein looked nervous at being around actual people and couldn’t get out of there fast enough. I told him I might post his remark about Rove, which I did http://www.democraticundergrou....._id=903801 , and he looked none too happy about that. He seemed during the evening to be hoping that the Democrats would win, possibly to save him from his own worst instincts, but obviously we have disappointed him again.

You forgot liar. He lied about his authorship of Primary Colors, and actually attacked a guy for fingering him as the author. The man has no ethics.

There was a time, if we are to believe Herblok cartoons, when journalists were just reporters, carrying pencils in their hatbands and hanging out in smoky bars. But now they are pundits, sending their offspring to Sidwell Friends School, and aspiring to join the Cosmos Club.
They who once rocked the boat, when they were in steerage, are now securely up in POSH. Question the reasons for war? You must be kidding.

Joe Klein isn’t even the worst of them. He is at most a hole in the air.
When these guys fill the Mencken room at the National Press Club there is a sense of sadness and sacrilege.

Here is one hell of a new Katrina story…

In Attics and Rubble, More Bodies and Questions: NYT
The bodies of storm victims are still being discovered in New Orleans â€” in March alone there were nine, along with one skull. Skeletonized or half-eaten by animals, with leathery, hardened skin or missing limbs, the bodies are lodged in piles of rubble, dangling from rafters or lying face down, arms outstretched on parlor floors. Many of them, like Ms. Blanchard, were overlooked in initial searches.

Watching Joe Klein on This Week made me think back to my time in the Army specifically are training for dealing with chemical, nuclear and biological weapons. It was rather perverse in that we all knew that in cast of such an attack we would not survive. And, yet they we were training how to put on gas mask and a MOPP suit in the fastest time we could. Even though we would joke about what would happen none of us from the enlisted men to the officers ever wanted any country and certainly not are country to ever use such weapons because we, more than most people understood what the out come would be. Somewhere between 75 to 80% casualty rate and for those who survived what real chance did they have of really surviving for the long term the percentages were quite low. Why? Because a lot of these agents are precedent. Meaning that they survive in areas that one might least suspect. Like under the eves of houses, the underside of leaves and in car wheel wells just to name a few.

Please remember once deployed there is no going back and the consequences are beyond anything we would care or dare to imagine.

I quite liked Primary Colors - the book and the movie. I even forgot John Travolta was a scientologist for a second. So in honor of the nineties Joe K ,I will try and put my best spin on his present posturing.
Joe doesn’t like the leftist policies of the pinko rose from ODESSA Texas, he really doesn’t.
Policies like massive deficit funding, world revolution through state terror, totalitarian police states with CHEKA’s, Gulag’s and etc.
It’s just all Marxist-Leninist red fascism and red terror all over again.
So Joe is throwing himself on the grenade for us by exposing these Marxist-Leninist evils.
Thank you Joe - a grateful nation salutes you friend.
