I’m thinking that our resident HHD correspondent is a bit busy with storm stuff. I don’t mind pinch hitting. Not. One. Bit. Yum!

Enjoy a bit of music while you’re at it.
Mmmm….dirty, dirty boys…
And all my sources tell me that Thomas Magnum was a Navy Seal.

http://atwar.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/03/we-got-him/?hp>This woman nails it.
Must read.
My husband’s retired, so I certainly can’t say I see this from the same perspective (as a wife worrying about her hubby, and attending funerals of fallen comrades, etc) – but when I watched those kids celebrating the other night. Those Obama voters.
gah. Bad taste in my mouth.
The dude on the pull up bar… I’d hit that.
OHHHHHH MOMMA!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ah do believe ah will have to retire to the verandah before ah swoon……
Those boys can eat crackers in my bed any day of the week and twice on Sundays!
And hands off, ladies – Magnum is MINE, ALL MINE.

The dude with the cigarette has got my name written all over him
You know, in Michigan we pay sales tax ON the other taxes already put on gas? We pay 6% – so the state is making more as the prices goes up. And that 6% is applied to all the federal BS taxes that are there.
We’re taxed on fucking taxes.
I want to lie on top of the guy doing push-ups. You know, to help him feel the burn.
Car in, the comments from that article do not disappoint. As one would expect anything less from the readers of the NYT.
*patriotically puts hand over heart in remembrance*
The guy smoking has an “Eagle, Globe & Anchor” Tattoo. So, unless the SEALS started taking Jarheads. . .
You were looking a bit close at that guy,weren’t you chief?
I’m not judging.
I always thought Selleck was pretty much a man’s man. But he looks downright Nancy when juxtaposed with real men’s men. These guys would make Lee Marvin look like a homo.
Great job, cyn. And I dont’ mean that in the semi-sarcastic way that people usually say that shit around here.
*Throws panties at poat*
This is the BEST HHD EVER!!! With a delicious Thomas Magnum bonus!
My heart is palpitating….
Carin – I can spot a Navy or Marine Corps uniform violation from 60 yards. I was part of my job. If I can do that, I can certainly spot the USMC emblem on a fucking tattoo.
Now, drop and give me 50!
Chief, the tags don’t matter, it’s what’s in the package that counts……
Now, drop and give me 50!
but I already worked out today …
Whatever. I’ll not argue reality with women who objectify men!
*stomps off in a huff*
You forgot your tiara, Chief –
Oh, and the next news reader who calls the SEALS, “soldiers” is gonna get my boot in their ass.
>> Car in, the comments from that article do not disappoint. As one would expect anything less from the readers of the NYT.
Notice that a couple of them are still throwing out that debunked MLK, Jr. quote. Par for the course.
I can spot a Navy or Marine Corps uniform violation from 60 yards.
Hahahaha – me too.
Last Sunday a guy got dropped off at the train station across the street. He was in dress whites, and when he got out of the car he did not put on his cover. When the fuck did that change?
Oh, and he was also smoking. We never smoked outdoors in uniform. When the fuck did that change?
Ladies, I forwarded the link of today’s thread to Marcus since it honored his boys. He emailed me back already having gotten a huge kick out of it.
He said thanks!
Cool, GML. I started to update it earlier with that group picture of him, Mike Murphy, et. al. in Afghanistan, but the whole at-work over-the-shoulder thing might have been hard to explain.

Sarah’s about ready to turn Rachel’s dog into a coat – she CLIMBED UP onto the table where Sarah had put her shoes (specifically to avoid getting chewed up) and demolished them.
After coming home from dropping Rebecca off this morning and finding a puddle AND a pile of poo, I’m about ready to sharpen the knife for her!
GML, you might wanna tell Mr. Luttrell that it would be a thrill beyond words if he were to come on here and thank us in person….. 😉
Or is that too forward?
(That way, we can thank him right back!)
I asked him to Tifw, we’ll see. They are at home right now waiting on baby “Axe” to arrive. He is a week late already and I know Melanie is ready for launch!
Marcus – you’ve been called out!
that is a haunting pic Andy, for sure.
For sure.
Yes, Chief, I see that smoking-man with the tat now. My bad and will delete.
There’s actually not too many SEALS pics that seem to have bared it for the camera to make our bunk-worthy poat. Shy; that’s hawt! Rawr!
Fixted! My men are pure now.
Later peeps.
Good morning, all.
The Navy Seals™ pic sure pales in comparison to that one. PG is right, next to the real thing, Hollywood replicas just can’t do it justice.
WAAAAAA? What’s this?

I’m miffed. MIFFED I say.
I can just click over and see it, Andy.
Sigh.
fine men . Represent the best of America. Juxtapose it next to a picture of ‘bama and try not to puke.
Sigh. I so don’t want to go and do shit, but I have to drive to Detroit and have dinner with my sis and mom. Hubby wants me to stop by the store and (I don’t know what) see what I need to landscape. I’ve seen it. I don’t need to see it anymore. I know what it looks like.
Oye. I swears

Great HHD, Cyn.
*does the camouflage cuddle*
Yeah, that is a bittersweet picture of Marcus and his buddies.
We are fortunate, indeed, to have such fine men representing this great nation.
Hope that baby gets here soon – I remember those last few weeks of pregnancy as being particularly uncomfortable.
(I was lucky – all of mine were scheduled C-Sections, so I NEVER went past my due date!)
PG is right,

MOOOMMMM!!!!!! Cyn’s a prude!
I LOVED the last few weeks. Except for the heartburn. Every moment full of anticipation.

Wait, someone call wiser. I wouldn’t want him to miss it.

MLK Jr.
I feel a Stuff MLK Said thread coming.
It would merge two fine traditions – Stuff Jefferson Said, 3rd. Ed. and RAAACISTT!!!
ARRGGGGHHHH.
Just got off of the phone with some punk kid offering to see if I “qualify” to save money with a federally-funded program to help me pay less in utility costs.
I tried to explain to this young man that every program like this is funded with TAXPAYER DOLLARS. He told me “No they’re not. They’re funded with money from the government.”
So I had to explain to him that the government only gets its money by taking from taxpayers, and only 53% of people pay taxes. He told me I should be glad that we make enough to be able to pay taxes, and that these programs exist to help those who don’t make enough to pay taxes.
So I started in again on him, and he told me that everything that I was saying was wrong, and if I thought that I knew everything about everything, even though I didn’t, he didn’t have time to spend talking with me anymore.
Which is why he’s working a phone bank, I guess. ‘Cuz he’s so smart….
Wait a second…
Is Marcus, or Dave expecting a wee one?
Stuff MLK Said:
“I have a dream…..my kids were on a mountaintop…..then they were holding hands with colors……then there were these other kids……and a judge…..and they were all getting free stuff, but some of them were upset because they were last……

——————————————-
That giant collective slap you just heard was everyone in the country realizing that Obama is still a big giant pussy.
Great comment over at Ace’s place:
I see no reason to believe Obama had anything to do with the operation other than as an interested spectator. Other more adult people made all the decisions and told him to sit his ass in the corner and be quiet, If he kept quiet, and didn’t cause any problems, they would let him watch it on TV….
Joe Biden got to watch the operation, too. Except he turned around during the broadcast and asked why he was watching someone play Call Of Duty Black Ops.
/stolen shamelessly from comments at ace’s
So, a pic of one of our own assassinated leaders is free to roam the interwebs (JFK), but it wouldn’t be right to show OBL?
I smell ineptitude, and it reeks of pusseh.
turns out that quote about terrorists publishing photos was from Mike Rodgers, GOP chair of the House Intel committee. See Ace for major correction.
Apparently a REPUBLICAN said that:
Multiple layers of editorial control. Thanks Chuck!
and screw you, Rogers.
http://twitter.com/#!/chucktodd/statuses/65840821328556034
My original assessment stands, though. It just shifts to a Republican, from the President.
I stand by mine as well.
not me. now that i know it’s a republican I really like the quote.

MOM!!!!! NANCY PELOSI IS HACKING INTO COUNT’S WORDPRESS.
Ok, so that facepalm is going to come later.
And by the way, you don’t release the photo to prove that he was killed. That premise is wrong.
You release it to show terrorists the reach of the US collective will, even for a big giant pussy like Obama.
1. As noted, terrorists publish the pictures of our dead EVERY TIME.
2. Osama was a mass murderer.
3. How dare you equate a mass murderer with an American warrior.
4. Whichever politician made the statement, I have a simple rebuttal; FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE!
Works for me.
Osama bin Laden is not a trophy
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
He is in fact a trophy, and a warning, and a testament to how hard and how long we will continue this fight.
And everything that MCPO said too. *nods in vehement agreement*
NANCY PELOSI IS HACKING INTO COUNT’S WORDPRESS.
Nancy Pelosi couldn’t hack into a bad cough, the dumb scrunt.
Any bets on how fast Teh Won’s poll numbers drop after an adjustment for the tiny bounce?
I think Car in had it right, Cyn – about the time it takes to need to fill your gas tank twice.
At over $4/gallon, and a 25 gall tank, I’m hitting near $100 for a fill-up. Most of the pumps around here stop at $75 to prevent big loses from drive-offs.

Holy Crap, that picture of the real Seals in Afghanistan shows a bunch of studs. And by studs I mean in incredible shape, confident and full of awesomeness.

Yes [AD]

😉
I am dead serious.
Which pic Mare? Andy’s link??
I tried to make sure that all the HHD men were real seals too
HAHAHAHA
The one that Andy linked.
I really meant to say, “the Seals in Afghanistan.”
I didn’t need to put “real.”
Yes; they are definitely HHD-worthy, but they were wearing juuuuust a bit too much clothing.
It would be so much fun to not meat you Mare. I think that we would not have a blast!
Agree. Stupid uniforms.
DRUDGE SIREN…
Reuters releasing 9 photos.
I’m having a hard time getting in.
You do realize that all but one of the young men in Andy’s link were killed in a firefight? That’s Marcus Luttrell’s unit…..
“I think that we would not have a blast!”
There is NO doubt on that!
But everyone has really enjoyed not meating me.
So….remind me again which works better – a show of strength or submission?

My response to a comment on Ace’s “Show the pictures or not?” poat:
Why is it so important to many of you that we do see it? Curiousity? Doubt that he’s really dead? – Posted by: Hollowpoint at May 04, 2011 02:27 PM (SY2Kh)
It’s called CLOSURE.
Ask anyone who’s ever had a loved one disappear and the body is never found. Until you actually SEE proof that person is actually gone, you can’t EVER completely reconcile what you’ve been told happened and what actually happened.
This monster ripped a hole in the very fabric of this country. If the people of this nation don’t have an opportunity to see for themselves that he was, indeed, no-kidding taken out of the equation for good, we will NEVER be able to fully heal.
The fact that a picture is released DOES NOT MEAN that a person has to go and look at it – many people don’t want to see the body of a loved one after they pass away – but the fact that they can IF THEY WANT TO makes all the difference in the world.
And there is nothing in the world like seeing the “boogeyman” – because for many people under the age of 25 who still remember that day, that is EXACTLY what he is – for what he really is. Just flesh and bone and subject to the same laws of physics and justice as the rest of us.
Still hawtly studly men, may they rest in peace.
Amen and Amen…..
It has nothing to do with “closure” for me.
I want to make it my computer wallpaper.
I know that team came to a bad end, but look at them, men in their prime of prime. What a loss. But I prefer to think of their work and dedication. Alive or not, incredible.
I think Sarah nailed it. I don’t care who it will offend, the reality is, the nut jobs get riled up and start shooting at any excuse. I’m a citizen and an adult. This is fricken war, I should be able to see what it takes to put this dog down.
And I have made a point to look at as many photos/videos of our own men and women, in fire fights, injured and bloody. We should all see the cost of fighting the jihadi’s off American soil.
Reuters pics…I’ve seen (and downloaded) all but one; none shows the money shot.
I want to make it my computer wallpaper.
Full. Of. Win.
I’ve now seen all 8 reuters pics. big whoop.
There is one slow to load for me Cyn,but I’ve got to agree……not that big of a deal.
I did not know that it was Biden who outed the SEALS in Sunday’s OBL kill. That’s freaking perfect…I love that goofy gaffe machine.
Number 6, Mare? It just shows the yard with some broken off heli equipment.
All along, I was wondering why we were hearing the details. Shouldn’t that stuff be kept under wraps? Why name the Seals at all and why talk about this team being outside the purview of congress and whatnot? Can’t these stupid douches in government shut their idiotic Bourbon holes?
OBL DOA POS
OBL KIA
Not sure which one is better…
Haven’t thought it through, but my gut feeling is to believe that India and Pakistan told us where he might be a couple of years ago.
This has a nice compilation of pics:

Can’t these stupid douches in government shut their idiotic Bourbon holes?
No. And for once I think I’m pleased with this.
>> Shouldn’t that stuff be kept under wraps?
YES! 100-per-fucking-cent of it should have. There’s no need to know.
The narcissist-in-chief couldn’t allow that, though.
Fucker.

Something along the lines of “Today members of the U.S. military conducted an operation resulting in the death of Osama bin Laden. Thank you.” would have resulted in a whole lot less egg on the face than we have now.
They’re not even particularly good liars.
Oh, and the next news reader who calls the SEALS, “soldiers” is gonna get my boot in their ass.
What are you talking about? They report to the Rangers, right?
OBL DOA POS is my personal fave.
Isn’t KIA reserved (per se) for fighting soldiers?

Seriously, I was told that the really good SEALs get promoted to Ranger, where they get missions somewhat more difficult than assaulting retarded Arabs.
Reuters pulled the pics, anybody grab em?

Michael – Someone should go back to judging woodwind players and not warriors. . . just saying.
Exactly, Andy. But…show the pictures.
I got them all.
Also, Breitbart vid linky:
http://vimeo.com/23284823
“They report to the Rangers, right?”
HA!
Looks like Reuters fixed and they’re back. Weird.
What kind of helicopter is that?
Hmmmm, about 10 different versions of the story so far. Had they done as Andy said, and given a BRIEF outline, it wouldn’t look so cocked up (the stuff coming out of Washington).
There seems to be a bit of speculation on this in my search of the webz, Mare.
Her ass just looks gross:
http://tinyurl.com/3e8r63t
I read some shit somewhere today which I think is extremely valid: The Bush administration used to let the Pentagon give the briefings on military matters during times like this. Which the Pentagon did well since they weren’t trying to spice anything up in order to pimp for votes or put some salve on their constituency. This douche administration insists on controlling the narative and they end up fucking up what ought to be a pretty simple story.
I’m also reminded of what my dad used to say about Clinton. ‘He’s such a good liar and he likes it so much that he often lies when the truth would suit him better.’ I think that’s a lot of the problem with this ChiTown crew as well. Their first instinct is to lie.
On the heli: Reuters says Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk
>> Their first instinct is to lie.
Bingo. As my ol’ daddy would say, they’d rather climb a tree to tell you a lie than stand on the ground and tell you the truth.
Lying is their comfort zone. Maybe because the MFM has their six all the time.
“On the heli: Reuters says Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk”
Thanks, it just looks tiny.
Cyn – That is NOT the tail of an H-60.
Excellent PG. Nail…head.

Do you think the picture at the compound looks like this?
http://tinyurl.com/3dafoxp
The picture at the compound looks like a mini-submarine with short airplane wings.
There’s a lot of speculation about the helo. See, e.g.:
http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/the-dewline/2011/05/secret-helicopter-revealed-in.html
http://defensetech.org/2011/05/03/secret-helo-may-have-been-used-in-bin-laden-raid/
Chief–that was some of the comment at some mil blog I perused, hence my prior comment.
*plants kiss on Chief and runs away laughing*
Ah, didn’t they say they burned the helicopter just so our enemies wouldn’t know we had stuff like that?
What was that pile of burned wreckage in the Reuters photo?….I’m so confused.
Oh, yeah. This is a very special bird: http://defensetech.org/2011/05/03/another-shot-of-the-secret-helicopter-used-in-bin-laden-raid/
So the burned pile was the fuselage and the part that looked like a submarine was the top rotor?
Mare, they did burn the vast majority of it. The tail section broke off and fell on the other side of the compound wall and survived the fire.
While looking for info more on the helo, I stumbled on a Fox Boston video with body language expert. At 30 seconds in, comments about not being able to really tell who’s in charge from the situation room photo that was released! Bwahahaha! Here’s that vid: http://is.gd/3WN3Dq
I don’t know why I’m worked up about it, Obama will probably give the specs to Russia as our part of an unverified nuke treaty.

Well hello monkey-people.
I agree with Weasel Zipper’s:
Obama: “We Don’t Need to Spike The Football”…
Building a mosque at Ground Zero is “spiking the football,” releasing proof of Bin Laden’s death is what we’ve been waiting almost 10 years for.
This guy is a massive assclown but if he thinks the Seals wouldn’t take his ass out about an eon before they would ever take out Bush, he’s dumber than he looks. Which is a feat.

All along, I was wondering why we were hearing the details. Shouldn’t that stuff be kept under wraps? Why name the Seals at all and why talk about this team being outside the purview of congress and whatnot? Can’t these stupid douches in government shut their idiotic Bourbon holes?
And we’re expected to believe that these bozos kept the plans secret for days ahead of time? Not buying it…..
Ok, can I just tell you that brother said on his FB wall that when he gets back he’s going to have a stiff drink called the “Osama” it’s two shots and a splash of water

Please pray for her. If she does not get a job, she will have to move back home. That means, even though we love each other, either she will kill me or I will kill her, and we both own guns (I actually bought her a gun — stupid me).
Get her a dog.

Some one offered 2 of them to my brother today in trade MCPO. My brother asked me if I could find a value to them.
The one that he had in his office has the words “Adlake non sweating lamp Chicago” on it It has 2 red and 2 green lenses a handle to carry and a mount for a pole. One of the lenses can be pulled out (slides up on a track) for white light I am guessing.
Holy crap, I might actually be able to ride my motorcycle tomorrow.
Vman – Sound neat, but You would have to search for a bona-fide appraiser for that kind of work.
Yeah, they sound like cool antiques, but I’ve got no basis for value estimating.

I get all kinds of collectors of shit like that at the shop. Here’s some kind of antique lamp i’m doing right now. They guy’s paying me 200 bucks just to polish it up and make it look new.

Given today’s HHD topic and my earlier mention of him, this is what Marcus and his wife Melanie went through today shortly after I mentioned them on here. Melanie’s little sister (13) was rushed to the hospital for unknown reasons – turns out a virus attacked her heart and they had to do open heart surgery. Here is Melanie’s last update:
“They successfully hooked up the LVAD, which will help her heart pumping while her body tries to heal from this unknown virus. She will be in an induced coma for about a week and they will have to keep her chest open that entire time. Because of her chest being open they have to keep her paralyzed as well. Thank you for all of the prayers, this is a scary time for us.”
They are supposed to induce Melanie tomorrow, don’t know if those plans have changed or not.
Jeez, GML, that sounds awful. Best of luck to the girl and her family.
Please tell the Luttrells they’re in my family’s prayers. That’s awful.
Thank you Count!
The other lamp had the railroad name on it, but it was in his trunk and he did not dig it out to look. I am guessing that the RR name will bring more $
Ugh! Prayers to the Luttrells.

It was 9 lb of sirloin tip roast (which has an obnoxious amount of silverskin and connective tissue that has to be cut out and trimmed off) and 2 lb of sweet potato. It took awhile. I also cleaned up afterward, which I neglected to count into tasks completed in the time spent.
What a beautiful HHD….
Sigh….
Hm…is that BRAD in the calendar??? Over in the back, to the left???
No. ’tis not me.
Even as youngster, doing hundreds of push ups and sit ups a day, I was never buff.
OK, after THIS comment I go to bed.
Leon, silverskin and connective tissue make the BEST gravy and are good for you. You’re gonna cook for 9 hours in a crock pot anyway, man, that stuff just melts and makes a rich silky sauce. Get a better knife so you can cube the whole roast effortlessly.
Goodnight all!
Liar….
*gives Brad a chocolate brownie and a Thighmaster™ *
I’ve gone from unemployed to having more jobs than a Haitian cab driver…….
Now if I could just get one that paid enough… or, in one case…. at all……
I sleep in the buff but that ain’t the same thing.
Laura, silverskin doesn’t melt. I’ve crockpotted the same cut before, and the shit just turns into rubber. Connective tissue mostly breaks down, but I don’t like being surprised by the random tendons that come in a tip roast. I much prefer a bottom round for this application, because what you say is true of that cut, but the sirloin was on sale this week, so I traded my labor for $$ in savings.
Dave – Why do you sleep in a buffalo? Aren’t there any Tauntauns where you live?
I don’t know if I can ever get buff again. I’ll settle for burly.
All this talk about the incompetence of the Obama administration regarding this entire OBL event has me thinking…
Who does the confusion benefit most?
IMO, I think it benefits Obama. It feeds the conspiracy theory whackos and continues to sow confusion and anger.
And that definitely works in Obama’s favor.
A woman came into the music store today and talked for 15 minutes about how she doesn’t believe OBL is dead.
Her reason?
He had way too much money to die like he did.
I looked at her and said “money doesn’t stop bullets.”
Of course, that didn’t even come close to breaking through the numerous layers of stupid she was wearing.

What happens in that scenario, PJM? That’s scary as hell. What’s the virus? What does it do to the heart?
For 3 days he kept complaining to me that he just didn’t feel right. I assumed it was the flu and told him to suck it up buttercup……….then, on Friday he says, man, I feel like my chest is in a vice. I can’t breathe, it’s tight.
I said, well, then maybe you should call the doctor. Nah, I’ll see how I feel tomorrow.
The next day, he cries. I’ve never seen this man cry. Later I found out that a heart attack can make you emotional or some such crap. I gave him some aspirin, just in case and told him to call the doctor.
They told him to come in, but basically brushed it off as heartburn. They gave him heartburn medicine and some other stuff. Then, they decided to take a blood test.
I guess, when your heart gets damaged in any way shape or form, you release some sort of enzyme. They then decided to take him serious.
Poor guy. It’s illegal to talk on the phone in California. PJD calls me from the hospital right when I’m going through a guard booth with a cop in it. He says, “I did indeed have a heart attack”. I see the cop and say to PJD, “oh, ok. I’ll call you back in a bit” and hung up on him. hahaha, BAD wife!!
He had to stay in the hospital for a bit. Can’t remember how long. Sometimes a virus will give you an ear infection, sometimes a sinus infection, sometimes it’ll get into your blood stream and attack your heart.
But most folks see the incompetence of the admin in what should be a rather simple exercise in communications.
It ain’t those people who are vocal. It’s the nutjobs. And the media will paint the entire right-wing as nuts because of the idiot “deathers” just like they do with the birthers.
But the truthers are ignored.

A liver too. One of my nephews had a transplant at 9, and I’m reasonably sure he wasn’t a heavy drinker.
Occam’s Razor, wiser.
They ain’t that smart. Besides, they finally settled on what may possibly be an effective communications strategy: http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/white-house-goes-silent-on-bin-laden-raid/2011/05/04/AF1v87rF_story.html
When they have 90% of the media covering for them, they can pull a hole card 75% of the time. Makes them look smarter than they are. Deck is stacked, but they still mess up.
I shudder to think of what could have happened if the press was just a little friendlier to Reagan. He had them wrapped around his finger, and they hated him for it.
deathers
Sorry wiser, I won’t believe he’s dead until I see his placenta.
Hah. Too late for quiet now.
I still can’t believe how badly they stepped on their dicks with what could have been the PR coup of Obama’s administration.
I don’t believe for a second this was calculated. It was bumbling, and embarassment at having flexed military strength, using intel they criticized for political expediency, and committing an action they know had a Republican carried it out they’d be screaming like banshees about “sovereignty” and other bullshit. Because that’s what they do.
I loved Rumsfeld’s comments on the additional intel they gathered. “Why the heck would you talk about it, and reduce it’s usefulness to nothing?”
Because they’re idiots, that’s why.
There isn’t an ounce of clever in this, including their tortured (see what I did there) poll prognosticating.
Occam’s Razor, wiser.
Yeah, I know.
But it seems like they specifically did stupid shit, like burying the body at sea within 12 hours, which they had to know would feed the mouth-breather’s beliefs that there is some shadow-government at work here.
I mean, that was just plain dumb, but I think it’s going to end up benefiting them in the long run.
A liver too. One of my nephews had a transplant at 9, and I’m reasonably sure he wasn’t a heavy drinker.
*wonders about rosetta’s liver when he was 9
I believe he’s dead. The SEALs let just enough information out there, and will cover their own. They are the experts at keeping quiet, and playing all the right cards to keep something right where they want it.
CIA, not so much. Panetta got the info, but the SEALs ran the op. He’s gone.
Everything, EVERYTHING Valerie Jarrett recommended was as stupid as fuck, and borne from her deep (and misguided) liberal instinct.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! You think that was “bumbling???” They knew for a fact they were gonna get away with this and come out looking like super-heros, because the left is nothing if not hyper-hypocritical when it comes to how they respond to the actions taken by Democrats.
And they sure as hell had nothing to be afraid of from the press. One little tug on their leash and they heal like a well-trained Labrador.

He’s truly classless.
Everything, EVERYTHING Valerie Jarrett recommended was as stupid as fuck, and borne from her deep (and misguided) liberal instinct.
I think you need to take a step back and reconsider your opinion from a different perspective.
To us, Obama was indecisive and they have handled the post-op communication like amateurs.
To them, Obama was thoughtful and considerate in his analysis of the constantly evolving situation and showed true backbone. There is no confusion whatsoever, because they can easily believe what they are told today, because they are intentionally gullible when it comes to this administration.
It was and continues to be ineptitude on a grand scale. They have effectively pissed away a tangible and considerable political benefit that Democrats never get to hawk, being, “hawks”. Their own ranks have split on them, and five dollar a gallon gasoline is once again top news, a mere 3 days after killing the top bad fuck Al-Q.
They so could have made this last months. They managed hours.
I never cease to be amazed at how much credit for critical thinking people are willing to concede to this douche and his team of Keystone Cops. Who never accomplished a fucking thing in the world except hiding the truth about Obama long enough to get him past Hillary.
the only bullet Obama couldn’t dodge was this: if he had said no to the op, SOMEONE would have leaked it **cough**HIlary**cough** and he would have been crucified.
Dude, stop thinking about “us”, and “them”, and think about “those who hold no strong opinion one way or the other”.
That’s the political screwup.
So I presume everyone finds his going to ground zero tomorrow as unseemly as I do …
Yeah, purty much.
His little victory tour seems a tad premature…….
Yeah, it’s crass. Ground Zero is a memorial site, not a campaign stop. The only appropriate use of it on the occasion of bin Ladin’s death was a place to mount a head on a pike.
But that might have been insensitive.
“those who hold no strong opinion one way or the other”.
Oh, you mean the idiotic “undecideds?”
They will believe whatever the media tells them, as usual.
dave is right on that. Obama plays to the hard left, the middle is left wondering wtf?
His victory tour is an attempt to appeal to all. It isn’t working.
Of COURSE the ninnies who think their bestest boyfriend ever could do no wrong here. They aren’t going to do anything except praise him.
This is another miscalculation we make too many times. Obama will fuck something up so badly his base will break on him.
Not. Ever. Gonna. Happen.
ooooh yeah, the huffington post goons are madly in love with that great thinker, the philopher. such a relief not to have that baboon, that neanderthal in office any more.

Bill Clinton would have played this shit perfectly to his best political advantage, which means those distasteful middle of the road apolitical numbskulls that actually decide elections.
He was smart enough to do that and do it well.
Obama is not.
I think it would be possible to have a relatively tasteful and thoughtful ceremony at Ground Zero.
Just not by this bunch.
Billy Jeff Clinton could have just possibly pulled it off. Not this clown.
I just hope security’s tight tomorrow. If retaliation is coming, it would be a logical place, time, and target. The idea of anything happening terrifies me on a dozen levels.

Did you not see the Obama voters dancing in front of the White House Sunday night?
We are the only ones actually paying attention here. The left has there hero. That’s all they need. All the rest of the details are nothing but white noise to them.
I agree that they won’t break. But nobody’s going to be fainting at any rallies anytime soon, either.

Agreed.
But Obama truly benefits the longer the schism he has created exists. The last thing he wants is unity. And by creating an atmosphere of confusion and uncertainty, whether intentionally or through incompetence, he will remain unnaturally immune to the type of response that a normal (read: not worshiped as a deity) politician would receive.
I’m not saying they planned any of this. But it will not hurt him in the least. The left adores him, no matter what, the press covers for his team’s incompetence like an obedient lap dog, which keeps the mindless “undecideds” under control, and the right continues to be vilified for asking rational questions that anyone with common sense would ask.

Obama ’12 won’t have anywhere near the enthusiasm of Obama ’08. I think that alone sinks him. The comedian making fun of him at the thing the other day saying “you know who you might like to meet? 2008 Obama, he was a swell guy, you’d have liked him” says it all. The 3-5% of voters that were all “WOOOOOOO, O-BAH-MAH!” aren’t going to have that gut-level need to go vote, to pump him up to friends and family, etc.
The GOP nominee just has to be unobjectionable enough to not turn out independents in favor of the shitty, shitty status quo. He or she doesn’t need anywhere near the fire of a Reagan, not this time. We need someone to put a fire out, not start one.
Just my opinion. I’m often wrong.
he’s got some leftist media types criticizing his last 48 hours of pronouncements,
They’ll be right back in line soon enough. This simply gives them the opportunity to prove how “non-biased” they are.
They all get one.
>> The last thing he wants is unity.
He doesn’t give a fuck about unity. He gives a fuck about pulling in the “undecided” which can guarantee him another term. They gave him the last one.
I’m not callin it a “hurt” per se, I’m saying he squandered a bonifide opportunity for a boost. Shit, the one deep dig criticism of the left, that they’re “weak on defense” (like the one deep dig criticism of Republicans, they’re “racist fat-cats”), he could SO have gotten points here. He pissed em away being a dork.

Fire or no fire, a Republican MUST clearly articulate the consequences of continuing the status quo.
Hahaha peej.

PJM is a muppet?
I’m saying he squandered a bonifide opportunity for a boost.
No argument there. My point is that he isn’t hurt at all by the on-going confusion and, in fact, actually benefits the longer it lasts.
The media will cover for their bumbling, creating questions that linger, yet anyone who mentions that things might be a little off (such as the really quick burial at sea, coupled with the refusal to release pictures of a dead OBL) is considered a nut.
Seriously, look at how well the whole birth certificate thing worked out for him. Normal everyday people were thinking “Yeah, I’m sure he was born in this country, but why is he working so hard to hide his BC?”
Now those people are questioning themselves and are definitely afraid to ask anymore questions, regardless of how badly this whole thing has been handled.
And that shuts people up and makes them afraid to even discuss anything negative about BHO with their family and friends.
So no one talks bad about him, the impression is that more people like him and everyone wants to be on the winning side…..
especially the undecideds.
Mark “Ninny” Halperin over at Time just wrote about the six things Obama fucked up over this.
Check out how watered down the language is. He’s telegraphing the White House “fix this you idiots the rubes are not smellin what you’re cookin tonight”

This isn’t about the leftist media being honest. It’s about coaching the White House “you’re fucking it up assholes”.
So what I mean by that Wiser is that left-media criticism isn’t borne of honesty or holding him accountable, they’re coaching him because he’s stepping on his dick and they want him to adjust his message. “They’ll be back?” Fuck, they never left him. They’re tryin to fix his stupid.
This isn’t about the leftist media being honest. It’s about coaching the White House “you’re fucking it up assholes”.
Much like the non-partisan and completely un-biased Daily Show writers writing Obama’s material.
“See, we pick on him, but we only do it because we love him and we want to see him succeed.”
So what I mean by that Wiser is that left-media criticism isn’t borne of honesty or holding him accountable, they’re coaching him because he’s stepping on his dick
ayup.
They ain’t going anywhere and, in fact, seem to be more in the tank now that ever before.
It really is disgusting to watch.
‘night all.
oh sure. Guess we’re being too erudite for Andy tonight.
Sorry Andy.
Guess I should have told someone to SYWM earlier……
My mouth isn’t a whore!
Guess I should have told someone to SYWM earlier
OH PICK ME! PICK ME!!!!!!
Wiser, have a Corona, before you have a coronary.
I’m off to bed as well. I’ll try to spend some time contemplating the heat death of the universe and how inconsequential things really are. It’s reassuring.
So anyway, that’s my arg for why he’s not being a super-genius, he’s being himself because he can’t stop being a Marxist-douche.
He doesn’t have that skill, subordinating himself to win.
He’s actually an amazingly shitty pol. Hope he keeps it up.
And with that, I bid you all, adieu.
Wiser, have a Corona, before you have a coronary.
Ain’t got none.

AH HAHA AHAHAHA.. David Fucking Shuster tries to pull his boyfriend off the ledge.

You assholes need to get back here. I’m not done downloading Justified, and need something to occupy the time!
And with that, I bid you all, adieu.
EWWWW, looky dave, thinkin he’s a right fancy talkin’ french
He’s actually an amazingly shitty pol. Hope he keeps it up.
And yet, he never seems to drop below 40%, with a majority of people saying he’s a super-nice guy……
And they called Reagan the Teflon President?
This feckless turd is wrapped in Kevlar.
The WH messaging, for being run right from the WH, is consistenly fucked up.
If Sunday night they’d said “nope, not gonna release the pics” that would have been one thing. But to hem and haw, and leak that they were gonna release them, and finally only decide FOUR days later, that’s just fucked up.
This feckless turd is wrapped in Kevlar.
I’ll bet kevlarchick isn’t happy about that.
I like how Shuster can’t actually come right out and attack Obama for his bullshit like he would have Bush. No, that would require courage.
>> And yet, he never seems to drop below 40%, with a majority of people saying he’s a super-nice guy……
A point I keep trying to make to us conservative-minded peoples, who really want to believe our brand of conservatism is 60% of the electorate.
The facts indicate, perhaps not.
I mean, it takes FOUR fucking days to make a decision THAT minor? Nothing says strong leadership like THAT.
>> EWWWW, looky dave, thinkin he’s a right fancy talkin’ french
You take that back or I’ll kill again.
Oh I’ve got bad news. While home/in detroit, my old next door neighbor informed me that his nephew was killed this week. 19 y/o Marine. He was so, strangely , a childhood friend os my nephew.
I mean, it takes FOUR fucking days to make a decision THAT minor?
I wonder how long it takes for him to choose a club…..
I am so sorry to hear of his death, Carin 😦
You take that back or I’ll kill again.
That depends………who ya gettin?
Oh carin, that’s awful. 😦
Car in, I’m sorry.
sympathies, Car
Oh no. God. So sorry to hear that Car in.
He was so, strangely , a childhood friend os my nephew.
wait……wha?
Howdy. So sorry to hear about that Carin. 19 years old. Crap.
Awful news, Car in.
He was also, strangely, a childhood friend of my nephew.
Typos, PJ
Yea, typos. Sorry iPhone. My neighber td me , then at dinner my sister told me the same info. I didn’t know they knew each other.
Al, neighbor was old special forces guy from Vietnam. Green beret, I think.
Anyway,’roadside bomb. His body isn’t even back yet.’ poor al, I know he felt bad . He was supposed to be the one to talk the boy out of service/ didn’t work out that way.
Only 19, poor mommy. 😦
I wonder where he was? Was it before or after Osama’s death? My brother said other bases are getting pummeled way worse than him right now.
Don’t hear about that in the media, you ya?
Holy. Saturday
I can’t imagine how the parents feel.
His name is Dominic if anyone wants t
To include him in their prayers. And to his aunt Mary wh
I suck at the internet tonight. Going to sleep
she should have said, “Stop” after every comment
{{{HUGS}}} Car in.
Get some rest.
PJ, how are your chickens? Goats?
Kids?
Still living. Graham becomes a teenager tomorrow.
How’re YOU doin’?
Oh look b-rad! We’re gonna be saved!
http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2011/05/03/on-the-money-internet-police/
Warm and fuzzy, PJ. Warm and fuzzy.
Good on Graham.
**wonders how long before PJ kills Graham for being a snotnosed teenaged punk**
The fuck?
He’s irritating the hell out of me right now. Wants to stay up till his birth time of 1:05am. Hell no, I let him stay up till 10:30 last night and he woke up a big jerk. Not happenin. I did let him set an alarm for that time, though. I prolly sneak in and shut it off.
Did you tell him teenagers get more chores than kids?
The fuck?
What was that for?
Did you tell him teenagers get more chores than kids?
I should. He started comparing himself to Madeleine the other day, so when he asked if he could walk to McDonald’s with his friend, PJD said, hhmmmm, would I let Madeleine do that? No, I wouldn’t. So no, you can’t go.
He learned real quick like.
How old *is* Maddy now?
Madeleine is 9. She won’t be allowed to walk to McDonald’s when she’s 12 though. I’m sexist.
How far is it to McD’s?
And I denounce you for being a horrible mother just for letting your kids think of even eating at McD’s…
**calls DCFS**
**mentions PJ’s name””
“Oh, her. Lemme get a hand cart to pull her file”
What the fuck is this shit.
**decides not to set Sean on fire, as it’s old**
**throws caustic lye on Sean**
“Oh, her. Lemme get a hand cart to pull her file”
hahahaha
Boy, it’s a good thing I was wearing this biohazard suit tonight for no apparent reason.
I just googled it, McDonald’s is .71 miles.
He’s started walking to school now as well……..he thinks I’m not smart enough to figure out that he’s buying cookies from McD’s on his way there.
Good night, all.
Happy Birfday to Garanimal.
So, peej, has your son screamed at you about how you don’t understand him yet?
Only when I work at his school as the lunch lady and tell the kids, “hey, see that kid over there? Tell him his mom loves him and not to do drugs”
He doesn’t like that very much, but it sure makes me laugh.
NYTOL!
“hey, see that kid over there? Tell him his mom loves him and not to do drugs”

Good morning, all. Prayers for Dominic and those touched by his loss.
Morning. Checked outside and I’m on the green side of the grass. That’s something.
My prayers for Dominic and his family. Lord have mercy.
I’m giving outside another 30 minutes or so to warm up so riding the Honda to work won’t be quite so brisk. That and the sun is directly in my line of sight for at least the next hour, and higher is better.
Still not sure if I’m selling it or not.
wakey wakey
wakey wakey
You’re not the boss of me.
At 8am she says this. Slacker.
Lieutenant General Asad Durrani, former head of the ISI, Pakistan’s intelligence service, said it was “inconceivable” that his government was unaware of the US raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound.
You know, I can see that. The Pakistani government is perpetually between a rock and a hard place. “Plausible deniability” is their only defense against a massive domestic shitstorm.
About Dominic – I feel HORRIBLE that I didn’t know. I would have liked to have been at the service, to show respect and let my neighbors know … that I cared. And that it was a big f-ing deal. It was just last Saturday.
Poor Mary (his aunt).
And they just moved too, now. They couldn’t deal with how bad the neighborhood is becoming. I pulled up to check on my house, and al just happened to be there (he’s still moving) – someone had broken into his house.
They didn’t get anything. Just made a mess.
Fuckers.
I was gone last night, so the kitchen was a mess. I had to clean, then do laundry, THEN do my wakey wakey.
Order. Everything in order.
My gooseberry (herr) plants arrived yesterday, and I dug up a bunch of my raspberry plants from my Detroit house … so I’ve got that to all plant today.
You know what? I’m not gonna bitch about trying to sell a house in Ann Arbor.
Not gonna.
Terrible news, Carin. So sorry.
Okay, time to go put the battery in the bike and see if it starts. If it does, well, I’m out.
This from politicians who want to suck the political points of a wimp acting as if he’s a badass. This is embarrassing.

In regards Native American Hero Mr. Geronimo:
About two weeks after the escape there was a report of a family massacred near Silver City; one girl was taken alive and hanged from a meat hook jammed under the base of her skull.” His band was one of the last major forces of independent Native American warriors who refused to acknowledge the United States occupation of the American West.
Fuck him.
Jackie Cooper died.
What the hell’s up with commodities? Silver is down 12.00 from the last time I looked just a couple days ago. Prices collapsing for oil and food today, too. Perhaps good news? Or bad? Are people thinking that the economy is so shitty that all the money printing in the world won’t lead to price increases?
From Sicipedia:
BTW, I killed Colonel Gaddafi last night. I didn’t take any pictures and threw his body into the sea. Just take my word for it; he’s definitely dead.
Did he have his kids with him?
Prayers for Dominic, his family and all the other brave warriors out there in harms way… Prayers for their safe return.
Sickipedia
Jackie Cooper directed some of my favorite shows.
No, his son is already dead.
So sorry about Dominic Carin. That is just awful!
Prayers for Dominic and family.
Car in really hit a nerve with me on that one. I also have a cousin in Afghanistan, named Dominic. He is in the Nebraska Guard, with a transportation company, driving an armored Humvee. IE, he’s the target for all those IEDs they have.
Thinking about that, made me set a reminder to send a care package this weekend.
New Poat
I don’t think this one can hold much more.
A special thanks and many prayers for Dominic.
I love how Halperin starts the article that Dave linked:
“The White House’s brilliant conceptualization and execution of the plan to bring Osama bin Laden to justice has, in the last 48 hours, been complicated by mistakes.”
What the fuck? All Obama did was say “OK” to one of the options presented by the military. No doubt it was the consensus option favored by his advisers. How does the White House get credit for “conceptualization and execution of the plan.”
What a fucking shill that guy is.
Car in, so sorry to hear about Dominic. Prayers going out to his family and friends.
Don’t beat yourself up about not knowing at the time – I understand about wanting to be at the funeral to support the family, but they know that you care, and you will be able to lend them support in the months to come. It’s going to be hard for them; that is absolutely the worst loss a person will ever experience.
Hugs are being sent your way this morning, dear one.
