"Get out of my damn toilet!" Colonel Neville in a Tokyo bathroom. How do you think I met my wife?
[Warning. Long post ahead! Great Frank Caliendo vids at the end. Phew!]
Now’s here’s a funny thing. Apparently I have flaws and even make mistakes! No, please. Sit down. It’s true.
I didn’t believe it at first. I mean, who would have thought? Not me, fellah. But apparently if we can just "nuance" totalitarian fascist Marxist Communism, it's gonna be wonderful. Er, no.
Curiously, while I do have limitations of judgement, I’ve not yet subscribed and cheered for any totalitarian ideology and over decades, while as Mark Steyn said “living in a fantasy life completely supported by the system I despise”. I never despised it!
And so far I’ve never hidden and lied about virtually everything and anything in order to be the elected President. Or have I?
Also I've never promoted my own mediocrity, incompetence and total lack of ability as a plus for the free world. Sure, I do like to kick cute puppies, but who doesn’t?
So dig. It may just be true that Frank Marshall Davis, the Communist beatnik pothead and jazz weirdo, who had semi-treasonous dreams and wrote semi-pervert novels and semi-sub-Kerouac beat poetry, [though not as sub as Kerouac himself did] may be one of the less hideous influences on Obama. Now think about that. Go figure?
Again, dig. Frank appeared to never suffer from any miserable and paranoid race grievance syndrome. Frank never threw farewell dinners for Islamist PLO pressmen anti-Semites. Frank made little money over his entire life. Frank didn’t read from cue cards. Frank didn’t lie about everything and get have a sycophantic and hagiographer MSM give him free blow jobs.
Frank was not messianically adored on a relentless, massive and bizarrely incurious level by more people than JFK, Ghandi, Hitler, Mao, Jesus and the Beatles combined and for no tangible or quantifiable reason whatsoever.
And most of all Frank never ran for President.
And the amazing thing is that personally, Frank may have been a blast to hang out with, even without the Colombian Gold. Where as to me, Barack Obama is a less than four year known presence.
Obama ALWAYS gives me the dread feeling of the literally bent, sinister, radical and cynical apparent male model who is presented as a merely well spoken and allegedly thin Saint.
Barack Obama is as horrible and un-redeeming as the armies of the night he has spent a lifetime vampiring with.
“Mark [Davis] said: Now if you would care to discuss the points I actually made, instead of refuting straw man points that I did NOT make (such as an "evil" AIM or "criminal mastermind" Kincaid), we can have a rational discussion! But I understand it might not be as much fun for you . . .
Colonel Neville: Er, mate, that’s humour. It’s all the rage in some parts. Go on, tell me joke. I could do with a laugh. Rational=humourless bore. Got it.
“...not as much fun”. Gee, somehow I bet it wouldn’t be. And as much fun as what exactly? Trapped in a HACU meeting with you, Frank and Obama? I couldn’t take the jazz cigarette smoke and the convoluted and multi layered whining. From either of us. Hey, I'm with you on the AIM thang.
Mark Davis: BTW: Remember that the NAACP falsehoods were just the tip of the AIM iceberg. I would like to disabuse you of the illusion that his Body of Lies could just be "innocent mistakes."
Colonel Neville: I can dig it and thanks. I could do with an abuse free day. Ok, so AIM blew it in more ways than one. But they are still only part wrong, as Frank was Frank and Obama is still Obama, only more so. Frank Marshall Davis, the "family friend" of Stanley Ann Dunham, Marxist atheist and non-diletante oddball Mother of Barack Hussein Obama.
But the tip of an iceberg? Really? Well, if we’re sailing into hackneyed waters, keep rearranging the deckchairs. Who knows how far the tentacles of AIM reach? I hear they’ve organised the waterfront and infiltrated the Pentagon. Oh sorry, I’ve got them confused with someone else. Ok. AIM are out to smear a Commie weirdo’s reputation. I get it.
Mark Davis: Don't get me wrong. He does his job rather well. It's tough being a professional prevaricator when your stock in trade is easily disprovable lies.
Colonel Neville: Then quit. Kinkaid is a Communist? I didn’t know.
Mark Davis: His disinformation campaign might have actually derailed the Obama campaign if voters were more gullible.
Colonel Neville: Er, excuse me.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah, ah hum. Ha! No.
The ENTIRE REASON why Obama’s campaign was NOT derailed is because many people ARE wilfully gullible. SO how much more? Jesus H. fucking monkey handles Christ! It reminds me of a variation on the vomit scene in Monty Python’s Meaning Of Life:
“Please Monsieur voh-tar! Jarst a tiny leetle beet more gullabillartee to swallow wun more sar-lice of HOPE arnd BARLEEV!”
Everyone Obama fan I have spoken to can’t tell me anything about him beyond that they like him and the usual mange and soap. Oh sorry, Change and Hope. I have a dictionary too and it’s filled with many fine words and phrases like chocolate pudding, linoleum, incurious hordes, mesmerised dupes, guilt ridden spastic, phony, acorn, weather and bullshit.
So Bill Ayers, Rashid Khalidi, Rev Wright, Farrakhan, Rezko, ACORN, Woods, the venal incompetent Michelle, Alinsky, Mansour, Odinga the mass murdering Muslim dictator of Kenya, B.O’s poverty stricken relatives, less days in the Senate than would qualify him to run a hospital or a McDonald’s, heavy drug use, a Marxist atheist family, a Muslim bum Father, a fake birth certificate, no medical records, personally locked down school records, Socialist policy’s...
Takes breath, phew!
...no depth, being virtually unknown before four years ago, being a profound part of the deeply corrupt world of Chicago politics, no experience outside of activism and the tax payer funded, writing a paranoid grievance opus, Che the child killer posters in his campaign volunteer office’s and so on ad nauseum, DIDN’T derail B.O for Prez, but YOU say AIM and Frank the empirically proven Commie beatnik and potheaded perve could have?
Er, NO.
So could have, fucking should have really. A stripped down and accurate description of Obama is available in Australia at many a working class motorcycle repair shop and bar.
“He’s a lying corrupt rich Leftie elitist bastard”.
Of course I would never say it so politely. I’m afraid you’re going to have to use the totalitarian method to get many people to feel differently, and they still won’t. And again, there is NO comparison to any AIM triggered avalanche of deceit supported by a largely PC Leftard Liberal anti-Semitic media.
Here’s a nice aside on effective spreading of said "memes". Apparently the fraud that around “ten percent of people are gay” was traced back to a gay magazine circa 1974. They had zero basis for this as every government census before and since have clearly shown. But it’s now an often accepted and quoted figure. The true figure is from one and a half percent to no more than around two percent.
Thus even in the very gay area that I live in, the full ten percent gay quota remains unfilled, so to speak.
Another bunko meme is that FDR’s New Deal tax burden and money giveaway for useless mass behaviour programs lifted the US out of recession. It prolonged it, as only lowering the costs of doing business, and naturally occurring real demand makes an economy work. And lastly, the endless fraud of Che the child killer and avid sadist, narcissist, coward, phony and totalitarian dark dreamer, and that he was a hero of any people, outside of himself.
There’s plenty of ‘em. And that’s because they are made effective by the MSM, academia, celebrity, Hollywood and our own deluded authorities. Meaning that the mass of the MSM, education, even the government the the social all reinforce this crap.
Not really AIM's league, eh?
Junior: YOU WROTE: Hey, Marky Mark is conversely INCORRECT about...well, he says it best here: Jnr Marx: “...you are asking if anything about my father or President-Elect Obama strikes me as suspicious. No, because I believe I understand them”.
How does that work? Ain't this a Logical Fallacy of perception and effect? You understanding A does not and cannot change A at all, unless perceiving A changes you, and then you change A by doing um, something.
[Listens....] Not a sausage.
Or in Obama’s case, anything. Neither understanding, which the intelligent Mark admits to, or being wilfully oblivious of Barry and Frank renders their true natures above suspicion. The psychological term for such a line of unreasoned wishful thinking is "utter balls", from the Latin "E tu Balls?" To look at Barry Hussein and Frank and see nothing suspicious, is the kind of disingenuous raw power that could possibly power a small planet. Forget your dreams of being a Detective, sport.
Junior: RESPONSE: I understand “suspicious” to mean a slight trace, hint or suggestion of something. When you understand something, you move beyond the vague into the concrete. Comprehension replaces suspicion. I believe I understand their motives, and therefore do NOT consider them suspicious. For example, if I know my wife is meeting secretly with someone, then her activity may be suspicious. Once I understand the purpose of the meetings, it is no longer suspicious.
Colonel Neville: Listen, if you don’t bleeding know if you’re “wife is secretly meeting someone”, don’t complain to me. As Dudley Moore said, a dead give away would be if she came home “with her hair matted with cum”.
Now about the rest. Ah, I dig the Logical Fallacy, Okham’s razor, reason and False Argument scene and polka music as much as the next man, unless it’s you. But I’m a simple man and even a small man in many ways, but if you think you can go through life so er, sophisticated, you are deluded.
It is a variant of the European elitist disease I believe. [Mark Steyn on the smug conceits and snobbery of the highly professional mediocrity.]
They endlessly waffle about everything right up to usually ours but also their own execution. For such decadent, useless and ineffective geeks, the idea that a plain man of action and clear solid belief’s such as Reagan, who saved around 70 lives as a lifeguard, is gauche and beneath serious consideration as not just a President, but any position of power. No, serious minds and leaders study convoluted and constipated arts of discourse and utter corrupting failure at the Sorbonne, while admiring Castro and living in Bonne.
And the European is largely venal and ungrateful for their freedom and effete Socialist welfare states bankrolled by the military, moral and economic power and generosity of the US, the longest continuous Democracy in the world after Britain. Not a single European country has been a successful and continuous democracy for any more than the last 60 years. They are economically powerful and militarily impotent. Their power is non-existent and thus they have no reach. They are theorising in the abstract addicted idiots.
Sometimes simple and even crude spontaneity is called for, wouldn’t you agree?
Like Freud said, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar and sometimes a turd pie is just a turd pie, no matter how faux reasoned and tolerant you imagine yourself to be in the circus of the allegedly balanced argument.
The difference between an intellectual and someone who takes effective action is that the intellectual is always right. As long as they never tell anyone and never do anything. Conversely, the person of action invariably sharpens their abilities and hit rate in a harsh and messy reality and by virtual default, unless of course they’re a stupid bunt.
I believe you are looking at the wrong end of the tree, old boy. Try the stripped down and grounded roots instead of the rather endless and exhaustively complicated branches.
What do I mean? One can babble on rationalising anything as long as you are not the one receiving the 400 blows. Communism, Obama-ism and the rest are pieces of shit and cannot be polished.
Junior: YOU WROTE: There is no AIM conspiracy, and if there was, that would make the MSM a 9 to the power of whatever conspiracy. The MSM is more a kind of phony, incompetent, group think, mediocre, dull, and censorious, failing, liar filled, idiot employing, boring, and irrelevant and an often crippling and stunted diversion. Sure, it has its bad side too. It's a largely self-regulating and agreed upon stupidity.
Colonel Neville: Excellent eh? Thanks.
Mark Davis: RESPONSE: If all of the AIM falsehoods were innocent mistakes, then they would randomly exaggerate and minimize my father’s radical background. Unfortunately for your theory, they all exaggerate his radical backgrounds. In addition to misrepresenting others’ statements, such as Edward Berman, some of them are absolute lies.
Colonel Neville: Fair enough and I award you a Kewpie Doll for that, but would they really? If AIM is crap, fuck ‘em off as a waste of time. Look, I have my own flaws, problems and crushing frustrations. But at least you can blog on the President’s official site, eh? For what it's worth.
And Frank was noted, liked and admired by many. It’s a shame they didn’t pay him properly, but they wouldn’t would they?
“When money talks, people listen”. Thurston Howell lll.
Look man, people write negative stuff about Picasso, Elvis, Mr Potato Head and Charles Manson. That’s celebrity. It is if anything, creepy, depressing and a laugh.
And I can dig how it is uncomfortable to have boobs get the nuance of you Pappy’s radicalism so wrong. That what I said about my Father. He may have been in the KKK, but he never followed the Grand Cyclops Line!
So stop crying like a big girls blouse and maybe promote Franks many wonderful achievements and not just the world class choofing and hot cracker banging. Or keep a low profile. Frank was a lauded writer, one of the first young black people to attend University freely and was apparently not an avaricious man. To be honest, I can see why a teenager would think Frank was hip. He was so hip it hurt.
Oh, and write about Obama’s achievement’s too. With a crayon and a single Post-it, you should be occupied for all of one minute.
Sappy Davis Junior: YOU WROTE: All that is cleansed into the Current Truth by focusing on errors and failings of a single website called AIM, about a single square song and dance attended by a bunch of boring Commies and the often very decent people of the NAACP. Tra la la.
RESPONSE: You will find that the vast majority of the thousands of negative references to my father can all be traced to AIM. In addition, the NAACP incident is only a small part of AIM’s Body of Lies. I thought you understood this point. Perhaps I should post more of their Specific Misrepresentations right here for your review.
Colonel Neville: Ok. So AIM is the only source of negative waves aimed at Frank Davis, eh? It is an outrage to be sure. The way AIM have twisted Frank’s underage porn novel, pot hedonism and Communism into something bad, is a disgrace. I’m alerting the Pope and the Daily Worker!
Mark Davis: But my posts are primarily about the lies regarding the Davis-Obama relationship,”
Colonel Neville: Kinkaid’s or Obama and Davis? Or the MSM or academia or the Democrats?
Junior: RESPONSE: The vast majority came from Kincaid’s AIM. I am unaware of any such lies from Obama, Davis, MSM, academia or the Democrats? Please enlighten me.
Colonel Neville: Ya shittin’ me right? Yes, anything negative about Frank the Redhead is a lie? Check. Got it. Nuance. Radicalism is soooooo misunderstood by the uptight squares man!
No lies from “Obama, Davis, MSM, academia or the Democrats?” To “enlighten” such a disingenuous or wilfully ignorant mentality would require the kind of wattage that no mere mortal can generate. It would be easier to write the few truth’s of this group on a table napkin than list the frauds in a telephone book sized notepad.
“Now listen to me. I’m gonna tell you. I never, ever had sexual relations with that woman. Never, ever etc, blah,blah woof, woof. Vote for mah wife!” Billoil.

“There are none as blind s those who don’t want to see”. Gideon’s Bible. [Top drawer]
Mark Davis: YOU WROTE: Can I ask your clear candid views, Mark? Say on either Frank, Obama, Communism, the Western Canon and Capitalist Democracy, free markets and innovation, truth, God, humour, the First, Second and Third Amendments, freedom and free speech, the MSM, academia, radicalism, maturity, principles and so on. If I know where you “stand and deliver” Mark, all the rest is rather moot to pointless, innit?
Junior: RESPONSE: If you read my blog, you would know how much I despise communism. I support the constitution, but I have neither the time nor the inclination to write about your other topics.
YOU WROTE: Big Lie? Wasn't he in Hawaii Five O? So there was some radicalism to "exaggerate" then? “His values, passed on to Obama, were those of a communist agent who pledged allegiance to Stalin.” Is this a direct quote? Of course not, “...it should still be plausible to those with the appropriate predisposition to believe. It should make sense to the casual observer”.
RESPONSE: Yes, his ideas were radical for the era. Civil rights was a radical concept back then, which is the reason that J Edgar Hoover targeted Martin Luther King Jr. as a “communist.” On the other hand, the quote IS a direct quote (from http://www.aim.org/aim-column/media-excuse-obamas-false-advertising). It is in the fourth paragraph down from the heading “Another Cover Up”:
Colonel Neville: Brush up on your “despising” credentials is all I can say, sport. Hoover? Now there's a can of worms. "Targeted" by Hoover could have all effect and power of a light hand vacuuming. Maybe even annoying and a little noisy, but largely ineffective, then what? Nothing mostly. MLK the Republican.
Junior: [QUOTE]
In fact, his white grandfather helped raise Obama by selecting Frank Marshall Davis, a black communist writer and poet, as a father-figure and role model while he was growing up in Hawaii. His values, passed on to Obama, were those of a communist agent who pledged allegiance to Stalin.
[END QUOTE]
Colonel Neville: Er, that’s only really in contention even according to you from “agent...” The rest is entirely correct. As I said, I don’t give a flying Marxist about the phony Quality Control of Communist gradients. Gosh, what was the good and worthy Communist douche bag dictator they were pledging to at the time?
These boobs were merely deluded and classic useful idiots. Now listen. From its core and outwards, Marxism is ALL pure shit.
Junior: YOU WROTE: Colonel Neville: Hmm. “Stalinist” is a phony tactic to make out that Stalin spoiled Marxism by falsely introducing totalitarian conformity via mass murder and propaganda. Er, that IS Marxist Communism. Stalin was NOT an anomaly of Communism, but the natural result of it. The only way to power in totalitarianism is through utterly ruthless last man standing tactics, behaviour and strategy. There is no false “meme” here.
RESPONSE: There are many other types of communists than Stalinists. Kincaid’s expert, Edgar Tidwell, dismisses the Stalinist claim. It is a false meme unless you contend that all communists are Stalinists. Is THAT your position? Even Kincaid does not make such an absurd claim! Were Trotsky, Lenin, Gorby and Yeltsin “Stalinist”? Is the PRC today “Stalinist”?
Colonel Neville: Who you jiving with this cosmic debris?
Trotsky was a boring fellow travelling fool who thought there was he was aware of a decent collectivism to be found somewhere, perhaps up his own ass? Lenin was a mass murdering nihilist totalitarian madman who never gave a damn about human life. He ended his days as a demented circus freak in a cane bath chair. Gorby was another idiot who could neither understand the past, the present or the future, and was at core another of these “I’m sure there’s some nice Communism somewhere!”
Yeltsin the semi-man of the people and doomed semi-clown drunk. At least Yeltsin like people, whereas Putin does not, except as a means to an end. Sadly, as Vlad the not so ex-KGB overlord builds his fiefdom via total media control and the power of primary resources etc, Russia collapses ever more via a 500,000 head of local population loss a year.
So no, really. Mere variations on a very narrow theme of gosh, totalitarianism which is Communism and which naturally gives you Stalin etc, or similar progeny. Ps. Are you kidding me?
Junior: As posted on my blog, Kincaid said my father was a “Stalinist,” because “He stayed with the Communist Party even after the Hitler-Stalin pact. That's why I refer to him as `a Stalinist agent.’ In reality, Davis could not have “stayed with” the party after the pact when he was not even a member of the party before WWII.
Also: Perhaps you did not pay attention when I wrote that he did not believe in collectivism. He, like many others, joined the party for other reasons. Must I repeat it yet again? He was a capitalist. He owned his own businesses in Hawaii”.
Colonel Neville: A capitalist, eh? Great. It warms my heart. Stay with "the party", don’t stay with the fucking party? Again, I don’t give a shit about brands. It all comes down to being a useful idiot to the East and a useless idiot to the free West.
And neither does being a successful capitalist inure one from being a hypocrite, an idiot and a creep. Witness Soros as he finances the demise of the Republic with fashionable treason and chicanery, and much of Hollywood as they hang with Fidel and Chavez et al. Read Humberto Fontova’s The Real Che and the Idiots Who Idolize Him, Jonah Goldberg’s [Left] Liberal Fascism and Nick Cohen’s What’s Left etc, just for laughs. It was ever thus.
Junior: YOU WROTE: Hey, Marky Mark is conversely INCORRECT about...well, he says it best here: Jnr Marx: “...you are asking if anything about my father or President-Elect Obama strikes me as suspicious. No, because I believe I understand them”.

Colonel Neville: How very convenient for yoo. I remember when I accidentally joined the KKK, the Wermacht, the SS, the Baader Meinhoff Gang and a crack head gang all in one day.
After a few months I “understood” them all, and like you I never felt suspicious again. Even when they came to meetings covered in blood I’d say “Never mind me! I don’t have a suspicious bone in my body!”
Junior: YOU WROTE: There is no AIM conspiracy, and if there was, that would make the MSM a 9 to the power of whatever conspiracy.

Colonel Neville: Theory schmeory. Lies pies. When are you going to randomly start emphasising Frank’s non-radical er, background? Probably when you bloody find it, eh? Can’t wait. I sit with a non-Clintoned cigar and brandy, counting the seconds.
Junior: YOU WROTE: All that is cleansed into the Current Truth by focusing on errors and failings of a single website called AIM, about a single square song and dance attended by a bunch of boring Commies and the often very decent people of the NAACP. Tra la la.

Colonel Neville: Did ANYTHING negative ever come from Pop? What a positive guy!
Junior: In addition, the NAACP incident is only a small part of AIM’s Body of Lies. I thought you understood this point. Perhaps I should post more of their Specific Misrepresentations right here for your review.
Colonel Neville: “Jan, Jan, Jan!”
As I said, we all have to harden the fuck up. I have to do that everyday with regards much of the MSM, the endless in your face of celebrities and their venal idiot opinions, that they have no intention of ever living, the endless parasitical reamers of academia, and our own clueless and two faced government. Welcome to the bloody club, mate. I admitted that AIM way suck for you. What do you want?
Junior: YOU WROTE: Mark Davis: But my posts are primarily about the lies regarding the Davis-Obama relationship,”

Junior: RESPONSE: The vast majority came from Kincaid’s AIM. I am unaware of any such lies from Obama, Davis, MSM, academia or the Democrats? Please enlighten me.
Colonel Neville: See, you have lost track that you already asked me that. Your post’s are largely about Frank and Obama apologia and blame shifting to anyone but them, while not conceding a single point. You are if anything, a consistent pest. And consistently you are surgically logical until you want to present Frank and Obama love or some other seemingly by the numbers radical Left Liberal canard and fraud.
“Every time I looked around, there he was that hairy hound, from Budapest!

Er, I thought the Democrats held back the civil rights movement, led by among others, Chuck Heston and Martin Luther King who were apparently BOTH Republican’s. And Democrat Senator Byrd, the happy KKK man voted against the civil rights act too, hmm?
Mark said...
You seem to jump to conclusions rather often, Sir! To assume someone is a Stalinist by virtue of membership in a Communist Party is deductively invalid. It is a Fallacy of Hasty Generalization:
Colonel Neville: [Massive Logical Fallacy list deleted due to urge to ad hominem.]
Junior: Repeat: To assume someone is a Stalinist by virtue of membership in a Communist Party is deductively invalid. It is a Fallacy of Hasty Generalization. People often join organizations without internalizing their core ideology, from joining the YMCA to joining the Nazi Party, because membership has its privileges. While jumping to such conclusions is understandable, it is deductively invalid. When empirical evidence contradicts such conclusions, ignoring such evidence constitutes intellectual dishonesty.
Colonel Neville: Yes, “..the YMCA to joining the Nazi Party”. Quite. Who can tell the difference? They both involve people in showers. So nothing "deductively invalid" nor any "conclusions jumped" and humped, and no "intellectual dishonesty" at all then? Excellent.
“False Dichotomy for table 8! Here’s your hypocrisy, sir”.
Junior: Expert testimony from Edgar Tidwell concludes Frank Marshall Davis was not a Stalinist. He criticized Stalin by name and ran capitalist enterprises. Although he criticized the excesses of capitalism, none of his voluminous writing advocated the replacement of capitalism with collectivism, much less Stalinism.
Accuracy In Media's Cliff Kincaid appears to have originated the "Stalinist" viral rumour sometime between February and June 2008. In Kincaid's original (February 2008) attack against Davis (http://www.aim.org/aim-column/obamas-communist-mentor), he does NOT call Davis a "Stalinist." Kincaid reports that Davis joined the CPUSA during WWII, according to Edgar Tidwell, "an expert on the life and writings of Davis."
Colonel Neville: So AIM stink? Hey, when I was in the Wermacht, I never personally followed the “Hitlerist line” myself. In fact I don’t remember a single Nazi who did. We were all such carefree party dudes.
Junior: In June 2008, however, Kincaid starts the "Stalinist" falsehood (http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/opinion/s_571431.html). This is where Kincaid explains that he calls Davis a "Stalinist" because "he stayed with the CPUSA after the Hitler-Stalin pact" (1939).
This contradicts Kincaid's February 2008 column, which states Davis did not even JOIN the CPUSA until later. Obviously Davis could not have "stayed with" the CPUSA before he even joined the CPUSA. Obviously, Kincaid's stated reason is invalid. Obviously, something else changed between February and June 2008, when Kincaid suddenly starts calling Davis a "Stalinist." Davis suddenly became a "Stalinist" because Cliff Kincaid said so??
Colonel Neville: Ah, what can ya do? Poor Frank. You suck one Stalinist cock and they call you a Stalinist cock sucker for life! Ah, the “Stalinist falsehood”. Now ya got it. You just couldn’t get the good Communism at the time because of wartime shortages, right?
“You can’t get the wood mate!” The Goons.
Junior: Jumping to conclusions seems to be quite common in the fantasyland of the right-wing blogosphere. When asked to substantiate their conclusions, we may encounter bluster, red herrings, and ad hominem attacks more often than rational, focused answers. Military Intelligence students are quickly disabused of such behaviour, and learn the value of supporting every conclusion they proffer. Researchers at the Rand Corporation and other highly-regarded research institutions often come from such rigorous backgrounds, where conclusions are based on empirical evidence, rather than wishful thinking.
Colonel Neville: “Behavior” but not spelling, eh?
Yes, the "right-wing blogosphere" are sooo wrong about the evils of totalitarian Marxist Communism, Islamism, anti-Semitism, Left Liberalism, treason and ever bigger taxing and more control freakery government. Sure. And we’re so wrong about Capitalist Democracy via absolute free speech, the First and Second Amendment’s, the bedrock values of property rights, the rule of law, free markets and the rights of the individual over the mass as THE core value of freedom. Yeah, all fucked up eh?
And there is nothing negative worth considering about Obama, right? Go it.
"Look away childen! Look away!"
Junior: It's a pity that blogosphere researchers and commentators are not held to similar high standards of accuracy. It's a pity that their fans consider clearly documented misrepresentation to be insignificant as long as it confirms their biases.
It's a pity that such predisposition to believing disinformation can be exploited just as easily by Accuracy In Media (AIM) editor Cliff Kincaid as it was by the Bush administration in selling the Iraqi threat. Even today, when all of the false evidence supporting Iraqi WMD stockpiles has been clearly debunked, Bush loyalists may insist their conclusions were true despite the lack of evidence.

Colonel Neville: It’s a shame you ain’t deliberately funny.
The lone Bush conspiracy is utter balls sans motive. And the presence of an actual pivotal enemy is always invisible to the Left Liberal. They can only see imaginary one's and only have the jelly spine to face off someone who has zero chance of responding to them. Thus they deem themselves "daring" rebels.
Thus George Clooney the talented and handsome clod, says "we took a chance" against 95 year old ex-HUAC members in Zimmer frames by making an empirically bogus movie, Goodnight And Good Luck.
The Left Liberal loves the UN but not George Bush, if George actually enforces the UN's 17 resolutions. The Left scream "fascist!" at Bush and anyone who disagrees with them, but never at any actual fascists.
The Left wish to live in a priveleged fantasy life but wilflly refuse to recognise their own mortal enemies and are incapable of defending their negotiable and fashionnable non-values. Etc, etc, etc.
Er, AIM’s minority flaws don't extrapolate to the vast empirical truth of the er, Conservative Libertarian and combinations there of blogosphere.
Your almost half-way decent writing, that alarmingly turns into effete Liberal hyperbole, has no effect at all on the superiority to you of fabbo and fun people like P.J O’Rourke, Tim Blair, Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Mark Steyn, David Horowitz, Jonah Goldberg, Bruce Bawer, Brigette Gabriel, Roger Kimball, Penn and Teller, Dr Sanity blogspot, the people’s cube, Humberto Fontova, Norman Podhoretz, Dissectleft blogspot, aJacksonian blogspot, machosauce on YouTube, Andrew Bolt and Hotair and many, many, many more.
On the Left, it can seem that apart from folks like Nick Cohen et al, there are little to no publically well known equivalents to the empirical and moral quality of these people.
Outside of the Euston Manifesto adherents and so on, there are so few Left Liberal sites or writers that are not doomed by their own innate predisposition to the treasonous, to ideological canards, doctrinaire hysteria and spineless cant, that I can barely stay awake to even consider neglecting them. No, really. What do I know? Plenty!
My advice? Don't be a Commie, a Nazi or an Islamist loon. They often hurt and murder people.
And oh the irony of when the Left is attacked by reals fascists, as Harry’s Place was by UK Islamist geeks.
It’s your “fantasy land” of the right wing blogosphere that rushes to support them, and NOT really the Left at all.
Why? Because they have no real and proven core values that are not merely fashionable and entirely up for grabs. And therefore the Left do not generally put their beliefs into effective action because they cannot, and never as much as they get others to bear the cost and burden of their unproven abstractions and theory’s.
Mark Steyn on the Left Liberal frauds of Canada.
Maybe that’s why they never really seem to get that sharp or funny whenever gagging outside their often seemingly limited specialty, eh? Can Robin Williams, [who I often do genuinely enjoy] ever talk as an adult without the natural bent paradigm of a very talented, rich, privileged, dope headed, irresponsible, annoying one track Hollywood comic about say, George Bush? No. And most of the MSM et al are entirely comfortable with Robin Williams tiresome done to death tangent fantasies.
