They are clearly racist for not giving the Olympics to Chicago!

Oh, and this is also the fault of George W. Bush! For all of Obama's valiant efforts to apologize to the world for the sins of Bush's illegitimate, immoral, oppressive regime, it is clear that the world is still hurting.

That it is still scarred.

That it has not yet begun to heal from the tyranny, terror and bloodshed of Bush's brutally fascist dictatorship.

For how else could the IOC not be swayed by sad stories of illness and hardship in Michelle's family? And after the enormous sacrifice she made to go to Copenhagen! At the very least, she deserves the last beet brownie!

How could they not be moved by Dear Leader's desire to be able to step out the front door of his Chicago home, and know that “The Games” were only a few steps away—so close, in fact, that his usual motorcade would share something in common with the air traffic at nearby O'Hare. What empathy! What unity!

And how could the hearts of the IOC not be warmed by the romantic notion of Barack falling in love with Michelle on the shores of Lake Michigan? Good grief—had I been on the IOC, Chicago would have had my vote right then!
~

Comrades, in addition to denouncing the IOC for its racist decision, and Bush for his legacy of hatred, intolerance and arrogance that forced them to this decision, I would also like to denounce Glenn Beck.

For it was he who made a big deal out of a few silly little irregularities in ACORN, thus weakening their ability to organize communities in the name of social justice. Comrades, had he not done that, ACORN would have been on that plane to Copenhagen along with Obama; they would have organized the community that is the IOC, and they would have brought those votes to Chicago!

As it is, I already smell fraud in those votes. How is it that so many committee members held up their cell phones to snap pictures of The One, but so few cast votes for him—I mean for Chicago?

I'm telling you, those flashing cell phones were the real votes!

And now look at what is going to happen! Neocon teabagging birthers like Beck and Limbaugh and everyone over at Fox will use this in their ongoing attempt to further marginalize and delegitimize Obama's presidency!

We were so hoping the choice of Chicago would distract the masses from Iran and Afghanistan and health care, and especially the latest job numbers—even if those numbers aren't as bad as they could've been—and the masses are getting so much harder to distract these days.

Now what should we do? Comrades, we have to do something that will make Obama look good again! We need suggestions—perhaps another week on the talk show circuit, or another cover on the Rolling Stone, or a guest voice on The Simpsons—SOMETHING!

Obama must do a guest voiceover for the GEICO Gekko; that is the perfect venue for telling us how much money we will save with ObamaCare. Plus, you'll get fast claims service too (just as soon as you find the right bureaucrat to wake up.)

I denounce the Rethuglicans for this failure! It is all their fault Chicago did not get the Olympics! It was because they are blocking free national healthcare which every CIVILIZED country in the world already has. I personally overheard^* this conversation amongst the IOC members before the fateful vote:

IOC Person 1: Chicago? What if I get constipated from eating deep dish pizza with my wine and cheese? Does Amerikka have free healthcare yet?
IOC Person 2: Non, c'est dommage.
IOC Person 3: RACISTS! In spite of how much I love Obama, Nyet to Chicago!
IOC Persons in unison: NYET to Chicago!!!!

I rest my case.


^* This is a "revolutionary truth", not a factual one. Only the former count.

I denounce the racist IOC! And the Bushitler leagacy to boot! MARSCH!!!

Comrades, it's time to draw a slash through the O of Obama. He has become our Commandante Zero.

(heaving sigh)

How dare you, Whoopie. HOW DARE YOU!

Are suggesting that Obama is to blame for this travesty? How dare you! What are you, some digitally Limbaughtomized, Faux News addicted, Bush-worshiping teabagging 19 percenter birther? I believe you're already familiar with the business end of my shovel, but if not, here's the perfect opportunity for you to become reacqauinted:

WHACK!!!

What happened today is once again a result of the mess Obama inherited from Bush. If you don't believe me, check out this truly independent source:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2002/fe ... ympicgames

The wave of American jingoism and intense security that has marked the first week of the Winter Olympics here has led to senior officials of the International Olympic Committee privately expressing concerns about whether the US can ever stage another Olympic event.
The games have already been dubbed the "red, white and blue Olympics" because almost every event has patriotic overtones in the wake of the terrorist attacks on September 11. Nationalism has always been a part of the Olympics but IOC officials here feel the event is being used simply as propaganda for the US war effort.

Surely you also remember the unfair, so-called "home team" advantage exploited under Bush . . . the chants of "USA! USA!" that only intimidated teams from other countries and made the rest of us feel that we weren't really patriotic if we didn't cheer for Bush and his phony, immoral war . . . because that's exactly what he used the Olympics for, and in so doing he poisoned a bunch of like-minded white European old guys.

The tone was set during the opening ceremony when President Bush broke with protocol by opening the games from a position among a group of US athletes. He then departed from the Olympic charter when he put the words "On behalf of a proud, determined and grateful nation", in front of the official line, "I declare open the Games of Salt Lake City..."

Only a bloodthirsty tyrant would dare to change the sacred words that declare the Games open into an opportunity to glorify his thirst for world domination via mass murder. At an event when all the world should join hands and come together as one, Bush had to ruin everything and desecrate it by turning something beautiful into another one of his self-glorifying Nazi rallies.


On the other hand, Obama had but this one chance to do something that no one else has ever done before, something only he could do--bring the whole world together, and what better place than the place where he met and fell in love with Michelle . . . where he sat in Bill Ayers' living room . . . where he launched his public life of service to--to--well, he launched his public life of service. And, as he was considerate enough to remind the IOC, as even you seem to have forgotten--it was the city where he became the President of the United States.

Yes, he could've brought the whole world together. That's more than Bush or you or anyone else has ever thought of doing. All you can think of is snatching it away from Obama and wallowing in your Schadenfreude--whereas I think of nothing but raising awareness of how much I care about discussing the importance of creating ways to call attention to the need for all of us to determine how we can best serve him, our President, by finding new opportunities for him to bring the whole world together.

And we must take action now, for there is so little time in which to do so.

In the meantime, Whoopie, I expect you to apologize to me, and then to Obama, and then again on the floor of Party Headquarters, after which you will resign from all your committees.

And don't forget to pick up your teeth this time.

Comrades,

We must not forget!

There may be room in this event to even blame the Jews or the Israels

We should not limit our blame

For example, it is quite possible that the Mossad working under direction of Bush/ Cheney helped to do this to our most great leader Papa Obama

Oooh, that greedy capitalist Bush! I want to send him to an internment camp to pay pennance for his sins against His Divine Majesty Barack Hussein Obama!

Here is proof that this whole thing is BUSH'S FAULT! Sen. Rowland Burris, a dull-witted hack from the Chicago machine an expert on international affairs, has put this in perspective for us:

Burris stated in an interview, shortly after the announcement, that the image of the U. S. has been so tarnished in the last 8 years that, even Barack Obama making an unprecedented pitch for the games could not overcome the hatred the world has for us as a result of George Bush.

http://betsyspage.blogspot.com/2009/10/ ... ungle.html

Will this evil Bush bastard EVER stop causing trouble for the long-suffering people of the world? Why won't he just go live in Texas and BE QUIET and stop screwing things up for the rest of us? You don't see other former Presidents like Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter running around and wreaking havoc, do you? Why won't chimpy BusHitler understand his time is OVER and he should just step aside and stop trying to get attention all the time? JEEZ!

Comrades, let's be honest here- this is all about those rednecks at the IOC HATING a black man in the white house!!

/Gawdawfulo

There can be no other reason to oppose The One We've Been Waiting For (TOWBWF); why it's as plain as the nose on one's face!

Let's take a ride in the Wayback Machine to 2005, when New York was a contender for the 2012 Summer Olympics, only this time it was the Many Titted Empress sure to bring it home:

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/07/06/nyreg ... .html?_r=1

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was greeted like a rock star on Tuesday as she promoted New York for the 2012 Summer Games. Delegates sought to have their photograph taken with her, or at least get an autograph. While many showed up late for their meetings with other representatives of the five cities bidding, they showed up early for Mrs. Clinton.
The welcome accorded her appearance here was a stark reminder that Mrs. Clinton still has celebrity status in much of the world, and she delivered the sort of buzz that New York officials were hungering for in the final hours before the Olympic committee's voting. Mrs. Clinton played a central part on Wednesday in the city's final presentation.

Gotta love those word processing edit programs. Search for "Hillary" or "Mrs. Clinton", replace with "Obama." Go to New York and 2012, replace with Chicago and 2016.

Wherever Mrs. Clinton went afterward she was sought by autograph seekers, television cameras, photographers and well-wishers, who often restricted her movements as she tried to meet with delegates.

I tell you, I love all the retyping and carpal tunnel syndrome that the "Find and Replace" feature saves you!

A beaming Mrs. Clinton was clearly enjoying all the attention, which reminded some observers of her days as first lady and led others to say that it could presage what she will face if she decides to run for president in 2008.

New York's representatives here were eager to point out that prospect to Olympic committee members, noting that if Mrs. Clinton is elected president in 2008, she will be in office when the 2012 Games begin.

Comrades, I am on a quest to find a link blaming Bush for New York not getting the 2012 Olympics. Beet of the Week to whoever posts it before me.

I sacrificed for the children and this is my reward? There is no justice. <P><img src="https://d.yimg.com/a/p/ap/20091001/capt ... PjDuToDg--">

Here you go Pinkie. About damn time I get one of those Beet of The Week thingies.

DailyKos blames bush for losing 2012 Olympics.

Also, anyone who has a DailyKos account might find this link amusing and care to post some commentary. The Kos writer says "
<br>I'd LOVE for anyone to show me proof that prominent liberalcolumnists and Democratic political leaders were criticizing ourcountry's leader for the NYC bid and gloating when it failed." Clearly he missed the DailyKos article I linked to above.

No, Colonel. No. Unacceptable.

In the first place, your link is dated 2004--before the final decision was made. And in the second place, going to Daily Kos for a "Blame Bush" link is just too easy. In fact, it's almost tantamount to cheating.

I'll bet when you have to buy a gift for your girlfriend, you open a box of Crackerjacks.

No, the link must be dated after the 2012 Olympics were awarded to London.

However, I'm willing to offer you half a beet for the links you did provide:


Colonel, if you don't appreciate how hard it is to make Beet of the Week, just ask Superkommissar Maksim.

To think that it's easy is to think that I'm easy. Is that what you think, Colonel? And do remember what I'm holding.

Now get back out there. Just how bad do you want it? (The shovel or Beet of the Week, it matters not.)

Hrmph. Just because you have a shovel...

Pinkie, my little babushka, How about the Houston Chronicle?

Why New York lost the Olympic bid

If you have traveled abroad to any extent, you probably are not surprised in the least bit that New York's bid for the 2012 Olympic Games hit the cutting room floor early.

Here's why: The international community is enamored with American movie stars, American sports personalities, American politics, scandals, styles, fashions ... virtually anything that is said, made or enters the public eye from the United States is a hit abroad.

But as a whole, we are despised because we have become the Evil Empire -- the Big Boys on the block, as it were, that everyone alternately admires and resents.

In the wake of the vote, which granted the 2012 Games to London, there will be lots of theories thrown about as to why a city so nice like New York could not get it done.

Stadium issues will be mentioned, as will congestion in the big city, bid preparedness compared to London and France, the finalists. But the truth is, International Olympic Committee members simply wanted to show that they would not be bullied by the media and political monster that is the United States.

I knew that logic Rumand Cuban Acorn Hookers Culture could pursuade you.

Since it is obvious that I am number one in the contention here for this prestigious award, I do have to say the Colonel is correct in pointing out that it is not a slam dunk for me. His pointing out that the article I used just infers the hated "B" word, but does not directly call the heathen out, but only in a subtle way, could leave Pinkie with enough wiggle room to deny me my just desserts.

Far be it for me as a member in good standing of the inner circle to use my power or influence to assure I get this, because only selfish capitalist pigs and neo-con thugs resort to such nefarious and underhanded methods.

I'm but a humble servant and only work for the greater good and could not even fathom going that road.

Speaking of being a humble servant......Commissarka, it has just come to my attention that an opening as senior director for my Single Sailor programs has become vacant. The position requires ensuring that all people's navy single sailors have access to recreational and entertainment activities for their enjoyment in their off time. I believe you have quite the experience in entertaining the fleet when it is in port in the past. If you are interested please let me know. I do not need a resume from you as I've heard plenty from my sailors as to your expertise already for this position and already have surmised that you may actually be over-qualified as it is.

We are going to have new events. They want to make bowling an event, and I quite concur. But this will be with skulls.

We'll have impaling of course--all people who have fallen out of favor will be impaled.

And there will be whacking the nano Jimmy Carter rabbits with stiletto heels. Personally I think that Bruno will win the gold on this one owing to lots of practice but there's always the possibility that someone might blindside him.

We'll have framing. The legacy media will probably take the gold for this, after spending eight years framing the Bu$hitler. After all, if the Bu$hitler had cured the common cold and solved world hunger and cured cancer, NBC, CBS, ABC and CNN would have complained that his tie didn't match his socks.

Then we'll have the Olympic even of sneering. The one who sneers the most without raising one lip corner more than the other. On current form the Couric Head--you know, the thing that even the flies won't eat, for they prefer the cat shit--will win. In fact we'll put the Couric Head on a spike for the Gold.

Then we'll have lying, plain and simple. My lord. Between Blobama and Parson Carter and our Many Titted Empress it will be a knock-down, drag-out fight. But it will be the most watched event in the 2016 Olympics. At the Rancho.

If the world still has sufficient infrastructure to have more than ox carts to travel.

Papa Obama says, 'I spent $1 million to go to Copenhagen and all I got was this stupid T-shirt'
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's failed bid to bring the 2016 Olympic Games to Chicago cost more than a bruised ego.
Taxpayers shelled out probably $1 million or more for the president, his wife and others to fly to Copenhagen and back to woo members of the International Olympic Committee.

Now, back to the topic at hand....



Bush lied, the Obamalympics died!

Sheesh. I have to do EVERYTHING around here!

My request was so pathetically, ridiculously simple, a caveman could do it. Or even a conservative, but I repeat myself.

In my post above timestamped 10/2/09 9:17 pm, I specifically said:

Comrades, I am on a quest to find a link blaming Bush for New York not getting the 2012 Olympics. Beet of the Week to whoever posts it before me.

I don't see how I can be any clearer than that. Yet Colonel 7.62, Commodore Snoogie-Woogums, and Infidel Castrate, while they all aspire to claim the prize I dangle before them, seem incapable of doing little more than trying to impress me with their Three Stooges impersonation--and they're failing miserably even at that. For starters, I don't see anyone getting his nose pinched with a pair of pliers.

Here: Next President May Sell 2016 Bid to IOC

Olympic organizers from New York, which lost the bid for the 2012 Games seven years ago — a year after President Bush's re-election — (Pinkie: Article written 2008, Bush re-elected 2004, bid lost 2005--try three years, not seven--but dammit, Jim! I'm a writer, not a mathematician!) know how fluid and unpredictable the selection process can be. After the 2001 terrorist attacks, the world was on America's side, and the Big Apple was a strong contender to win the bid. But the United States went to war in Afghanistan and Iraq and its stature in the world sank.

Translated for The Three Stooges: IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!

And check this out--this same article even pre-emptively blames McCain for the Chicago fiasco in the event of a stolen election. Now that's what I call journalism!

McCain was one of the most outspoken critics of the IOC during the Salt Lake City bid scandals. He famously invited then-president Juan Antonio Samaranch to explain himself at Senate hearings. Samaranch did not attend. However, two senators involved in the hearings (not McCain) called for Samaranch's resignation.
McCain, meanwhile, derided the IOC's "culture of corruption," during the hearings and said "the integrity of the rings must be regained."
Those and other transcripts from the April 1999 hearings almost certainly will be dredged up if McCain becomes part of the U.S. bid process.

(snip)

Pound acknowledged Bush's unpopularity around the world, but said that didn't necessarily mean a McCain win was bad news for the U.S. bid.

Translated for The Three Stooges: Had McCain succeeded in stealing the election from Obama, only for him and the fashion-obsessed clotheshorse shopaholic Cindy to jet over to Copenhagen to parade themselves in front of the IOC and act like they have rock star power--and something tells me Oprah wouldn't have been caught dead with them--Chicago still would've lost the bid, and McCain rightly would've been blamed as well as vilified by our ever-diligent media--that's always looking out for the masses--by pointing out that his expensive little jaunt was a travesty in an economy that he not only inherited from Bush, and that he not only continues to heartlessly perpetuate in his own thirst for power, but is even making worse!

Should Superkommissar Maksim chime in, I trust he'll show you Three Stooges how it's done--and I guarantee he'll make it look easier than knocking heads together.

Commissarka Pinkie,

With all due respect The Great One ^tm was not in competition for said prize, nor did I respond to said 2012 Olympics discussion, however, since this is progressive media the
Current Truth^tm is always subject to Party Revision^tm.

I did find the 3 Stooges reference most flattering though.

After I posted that pic seems it needed a makeover, since the Great One ^tm is a statist dictator it would only be appropriate.

Commissarka, do you think that the cost was only one million? I'd be very surprised if it were not many times that. But who's counting? With our TARP money and the stimulus bill and Obamacare, a million is just the change that you find in the cushions of one couch in the White House.

Theocritus, that link you saw was posted by Neotrotsky; the article says the amount may have gone as high as $1.4 million.

Faux News puts it as high as $1.2 million.

I could've sworn I saw something, somewhere on the Internet today, that put the total at $100 million, though I can't find it now, so perhaps I imagined it (Once again, Beet of the Week to whosoever can find it!)

However:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,558842,00.html

The approximate cost of flying Air Force One round trip for 18 hours calculates to more than $1.2 million -- roughly $67,000 per hour.

That's just for getting Air Force One off the ground and back. But . . .

The estimated greenhouse gas emissions of Air Force One for that trip amount to more than 1 million pounds of carbon dioxide. Compare that to a roundtrip on Amtrak from New York to Washington D.C. emits 220 pounds of carbon dioxide. The president's trip is the equivalent to 4,500 of those roundtrips.
The Boeing 757 the first lady rode separately emits nearly 374,000 pounds of carbon dioxide.
Those figures do not include the operational costs or emissions of the several passenger and cargo aircraft that accompany Air Force One with staff and equipment.

Add in all the little extras, like food, hotel, gifts, clothes--I'm sure Michelle bought that chartreuse thing especially for her presentation, and she didn't get it out of a consignment shop, either--oh, and the cost of having it tailored, because I'm also sure it's not "off the rack"--salaries for Secret Service, aides, motorcades on the ground, Little Mermaid figurines for Malia and Sasha (one simply doesn't visit Copenhagen without picking up a replica of the Little Mermaid statue), hairdresser, booze, MP3 and DVD's for Queen Margrethe, etc. . . . the total could well reach $100 million.

But that's still no big deal. In fact, it's a drop in the bucket to everyone in Washington, and they're the ones who matter, because they know what's best.

It's still less than what Bush spent on Iraq and Afghanistan.

And it's still less than what health care is costing millions of Americans every hour, unless we support reform NOW!

You forget the lobster, Pinkie. You forget the lobster. His O'liness and Michelle love lobster.

There is also the expense of taking over an American-style plasma television and DVD player so that his NTSC speeches will play in Europe. And let's not forget her 23 assistants. Or is it 24 now? One for the Lanvin sparkly-toed sneakers.

Then there's the consultation fee to Imelda Marcos, and the extra jet which is configured to look like her wardrobe in the Malacañang Palace.

But WTF? Just as, I'm told, Medicare's administration costs are simply off budget, these are off budget too.

And this can all be paid for by the savings in groundskeeping from the teabagger demonstrations. I knew they were not proper progressives because (1) no property was damaged and (2) there was no litter to clean up.

Here's the Washington Mall after the Elevation of His O'liness: Here's the Washington Mall after those shouting, angry tax protestors:

Sheesh. I have to do EVERYTHING around here!

My request was so pathetically, ridiculously simple, a caveman could do it. Or even a conservative, but I repeat myself.

Comrades, I am on a quest to find a link blaming Bush for New York not getting the 2012 Olympics. Beet of the Week to whoever posts it before me.

I don't see how I can be any clearer than that. Yet Colonel 7.62, Commodore Snoogie-Woogums, and Infidel Castrate, while they all aspire to claim the prize I dangle before them, seem incapable of doing little more than trying to impress me with their Three Stooges impersonation--and they're failing miserably even at that. For starters, I don't see anyone getting his nose pinched with a pair of pliers.

Okay Pinkie....How about this?

I LINKED two pictures together per your instructions, and it is so clear that even Cheney could figure it out as to why New York lost the bid, now where is my award?

. . . where he launched his public life of service to--to--well, he launched his public life of service.

When he launched his public life of service to...himself. Himself, dear Pinkie. As so should we all live a life of public service to himself. The Dear Leader is simply leading by example.

There were about a total of 5 shirts sold. I won't even try to place the design elsewhere because it may hit the same fan and I'll only waste time while the issue in point will keep fading away. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

If anyone has already received theirs, they'll own a unique collector's edition worth of $$$$ on eBay in the future.

I forgot; the Olympics are like that. And there was an attempt to have a Gay Olympics, and they came down on that too. I wish that someone would challenge their right to trademark that word, the way that Webster's, in reference to a dictionary, cannot be trademarked. But since it's the ultimate "for the people" those crooks will get away with it.

One thing I like about Salt Lake City--and I like many things about Mormons--is that they were so incompetent in bribing to get the Winter Olympics that they got caught.

But then one thing that I like about the current IOC is that they handed His O'liness his head on a plate. I saw Dear O'Leader speaking something like, "You can play a brilliant game but still lose."

What a jumped-up campus radical and fool. An academic lawyer, academician, and poseur. He's gotten a free ride all of his life.

What if you removed the Olympic rings from the shirt, and added a picture of Obama or Michelle or Oprah or choice of all three? (Or wouldn't that have the same impact? I'm not an expert on these things.)

Oh, the prog rants I've heard against the IOC in recent days . . .

That they're too "Eurocentric" to pick a diverse city like Chicago. Yeah, they're so Eurocentric they gave the Olympics to Rio de Janeiro and before that, Beijing.

That this is all the fault of the minority GOP that somehow got to the IOC, or that the IOC must watch Fox News and listen to Rush Limbaugh and that's what turned them against Obama. I'm still trying to figure out that one.

They just can't/won't accept that The One and His Significant Other gave lousy driveling speeches. Bring the Olympics to Chicago because that's what her sick father would've wanted? Because it would inspire all the kids in the 'hood? (As in Victimhood.) Like that's going to fix everything. Why weren't they inspired by last year's games--or even last year's election? Because they don't have cable TV or a satellite dish?

Add to that speech her chartreuse dress, and I daresay on that day, it sucked less to be Pinkie than it did to be Michelle.

I feel better now.

One of my enduring hopes is to find Lord O and Miss Resentment as bitter in the future as that goober-grabber Jimmeh Carter is now. It may be wishful thinking but the rank-and-file American thinks less of Snootinose by the day. He's already more unpopular than any American president since polling began save Gerald Ford after his pardon of Richard Nixon. This is telling, for Our Savior. O Hope! O Change! O Shit!

I have several friends who listen to America Left. "I need to know what the enemy is doing." I just don't have the stomach. I simply cannot do it. If I heard someone tell me that 2 and 2 are 5, I'd laugh but in that there is not the willful distortion of reality, done by bitterness and meanness. For a while I like a good Fisking, but that can only happen on a blog, and on broadcast media I feel entirely too vulnerable. I want to reach through the radio and strangle some people. So far the screen on my car has no fist prints.

I have often thought that the bitterness and stridency of progs comes from the requirement to drown out the cognitive dissonance. After all, if your entire world view is, day after day, shown to be untenable, only anger is powerful enough to drown it out.

If you go to YouTube and put in Bill Maher and Janeane Garofalo you'll find more insanity than Bellvue. And, in moments of generosity, I almost wish that Gawdawfulo were not as miserable as she certainly is. But then when I consider the damage that the left has done, in money, in lives, for their religious attempt to remake the world, I think, Nah, let her suffer.

Now Commissar, we all know that it's The People's Olympics and that it is usually confined to amateur athletes who scrape borrow and save to get there, but that doesn't mean that The Party(TM) in all it's wisdom cannot make a buck, just think of Michelle's rugula and glorious shopping sprees and you'll feel better.

I would feel so much better if Michelle had use of the second Air Force One 747 instead of making do with a mere 757.

And why doesn't Nanksy have her own 747? She can fly up in the sky going, "Zoom! Zoom!" with her arms behind her back for days at a time. It might keep her out of the legislative process though.

Oh.

DOH!

Actually, on second thought, the Evita idea isn't that great.

How about declaring a state of emergency and nationalizing the state of Vermont using eminent domain for a large wind turbine farm.

How about making Comrade Ayers Czar of GITMO, and bring the GITMO detainees to Chicago to appear on Oprah's show to discuss their anger issues.

How about a confession on Oprah to Comrade Michelle about his relationship with Larry Sinclair, and then have Larry Sinclair pay a surprise visit. And then, later, invite them all to stay together at the Chicago Four Seasons Hotel.

Comrade Leninka,

Now I can't get Chicago/Evita out of my head and your going to change it up on me? How about making comrade Ayers Czar of Terroist Butt Bombs, I hear he has experience with bomb making, and this one is right up his... alley?

Perhaps His O'liness can confess to childhood abuse. Not by his mother who seemed indifferent, or by his father who <i>de natura</i> had to be the perfect father, even though he was nothing of the sort, but by his grandparents. Recall that his grandmother, who did the heavy lifting of raising him, was a "typical white person."

How hurtful it was for him to have white people taking care of him after his father left.

That ought to do it.

All denounce the United States Olympic Committee! Zazzle removed this shirt despite our heated email exchange today because

Red, is there any other way that a willing comrade with a pocket full of beets could lay hands on one or more of these seditious and counter-revolutionary T-shirts? I would love to have a few for study purposes and to be enshrined in the Museum of Counter-revolutionary Kulture (MOCK) that I am constructing with funds generously provided by stimulus package kickbacks.

I too denounce The US Olympic Committee. I feared something like this would happen, and only hoped that it would hold off until such time as I acquired enough OPM to acquire one of these shirts.

They could probably be made in a tee-shirt shop in a mall (if they still exist).

Yet, again…everyone is thinking SO Outer Party on this. The Dear Leader (all praise unto Him) would never allow the Olympics to go to a city…ANY city…that was not contained within the contiguous boundaries of the great People's Democratic Republik of the USSA…

In case you've missed the subtly in the suggestion, consider this:

1) The Great One (apuH) was not frazzled in the least that the Olympics did not go to the Windy City.

2) Afghanistan is NOT a priority. The Great One (apuH) has not had even a full half-hour in his busy schedule to waste with his General in Afghanistan.

3) The Great One (apuH) seems most unconcerned about Iran's nuclear program to take any meaningful action. Therefore it cannot possibly pose any real danger, for The Great One (apuH) is wise, yea, all-knowing.

4) The Great One (apuH) is FAR more brilliant than any of us lowly progs… or anyone else for that matter. After all, he did go to Haaaaavaaard!

5) The Great One (apuH) is NEVER wrong unright, and The Great One (apuH) can NEVER failunfail!

Can you now add two and two and come up with the logical Party-approved answer of five? Ah… you have all been bluffed by The Great One's (apuH) brilliant deception plan!

Ok… let's break it down so that even a prole could understand:

1) The Great One (apuH) was not frazzled in the least that the Olympics did not go to the Windy City… After all….He's not the mayor of Chicago, He is El Presidente of the greatest nation in the history of the planet (at least since January 2009)! It matters not what city in the USSA the Olympics go, just so long as they come to the USSA. The 2016 (%#%$@%%!!!) Olympics WILL HAPPEN in the USSA (%#%$@%%!!!) … or His Name is not Barack Hussein Obama (apuH)!

2) Afghanistan is NOT a priority. The Great One (apuH) has not had even a full half-hour in his busy schedule to waste with his General in Afghanistan…because we are not interested in “victory” in Afghanistan (it is after all Bush's THAT guy's unperson's war!). Rather, we are only interested in retributionvictory against anyone who makes The Great One (apuH) look bad dares to oppose The Great One (apuH). We are husbanding our military resources for more appropriate operations of pressing concern.

3) The Great One (apuH) seems most unconcerned about Iran's nuclear program to take any meaningful action….perhaps because the Nuclear aspirations of Brazil pose a much more dangerous threat? There may be some evidence that Brazil is trying to buy yellow-cake uranium from Niger…I'm sure The Great One (apuH) will dispatch Joe Wilson (not the evil RethugliKKKan traitor (may he rot in hell)…the one married to the brave and hot-looking, CIA desk clerk super-dooper secret, double-naught spy) to find out for sure over a few cups of tea. The Ministry of Truth FactCheck.org will soon confirm overwhelming evidence that Brazil is stockpiling WMDs that might fall into the hands of Right-Wing Extremists in Montana.

4) The Great One (apuH) is FAR more brilliant than any of us lowly progs… or anyone else for that matter. After all, he did go to Haaaaavaaard!... It takes an Ivy League educated Prog to do the complete, higher-level calculus involved in deriving 5 as a sum of 2 + 2.

5) [HIGHLIGHT=#ffff00]The Great One (apuH) is NEVER wrong unright, and The Great One (apuH) can NEVER failunfail! This is a well-proven fact contained in Newtons Fouth Law of Motion (you can see it on FactCheck.org).

No doubt the Brazilians will dance in the streets of Rio when our evil, baby-killing war criminals brave patriotic soldaten invade liberate them….at least until 2017.
[/HIGHLIGHT]

[HIGHLIGHT=#ffff00]MoveOn.org, Code Pink and Cindy Sheehan, I understand, are currently generating pro-war sentiments. Members of ACORN and SIEU are even now infiltrating behind enemy lines to undermine stability. This was all published in the 5-year plan (225th Edition)!

Hmmm...

I see RR is making "Snuff" posters with his O'liness's likeness.
He better not be making any "Snuff" films with The One as a character.
That type of art is only for the person who made this mess in the first place, George W. Bush.

Understood?

I think that we could use the arms of the above statue as gibbets to hang Rethuglicans, don't you?

The French had three-level scaffolds during their revolution. I propose that any Rethuglican who suggests that we not spend money we don't have be strung up and hanged, and the vultures pick out his eyes. After the Democrats pick his pocket.

We'd have to invade Rio to get that statue Theo, but from Rahm's photo from his 3:11AM post it shows that Bruno has already infiltrated Rio 2016 and set up covert operations.
That's what we need! More men of action!
Kudos Bruno!

Dear Comrade Goldstein:

Here at The People's Cube, we have a little thing called "standards."

You, sir, have violated them--and on a thread started by ME, no less.

I would direct your attention to your last post timestamped 10-8-09 4:38 am, specifically the photo you posted therein.

Around here, Comrade, we call that HATE SPEECH.

Now, if you were to show that figure soaking in a giant vat of urine, that's one thing. In fact, that one thing would be called Art. And as anyone here will tell you, no one appreciates fine art more than a Party member as highly cultured and refined as I am.

But having to see that figure as pictured above--well, Comrade Goldstein, is it not enough I'm so traumatized by it that I must spell it out to you?

I feel as if my space has been violated, Comrade Goldstein. Violated by narrow-minded, intolerant evangelist extremist types who terrorize me on street corners, sometimes even at my front door, as they try to force their hateful, mean-spirited agenda down my throat. It's like rape.

Additionally, I feel as if my civil rights as well as my Constitutional rights have been violated, to wit: The right to a separation of church and State. You have torn that right away from me, Comrade Goldstein, as ruthlessly and as coldbloodedly as any Rethuglican would take away my right to an abortion, or my right to free health care, or even my right to free money from the government. It's like pillage.

You have taken my rights most sacred and trampled upon them, blown your nose into them, and maybe even wiped your backside with them just as the GOP does with the Constitution every day. It's like plunder.

You, Comrade Goldstein, have turned me into a victim with your barbarous, unprovoked invasion upon my simple but cherished rights. For that I must now claim the even more sacred right to restitution. The right to reparations. Only money will ease my anguish.

That, and a bunch of scrap lumber nailed together around the subject of that picture to cover it up--before someone else sees it and must know an agony that someone of my deep compassion and caring would never wish on anyone.

For I'm not demanding the right to money for myself. I'm demanding it so others won't have to demand it for themselves--AND to send people like you a strong message.

Oh yes, and you're also denounced.

What's the Olympics? Never heard of it!

Commissarka Pinkie:
Your denunciation is duly noted and were there not extenuating circumstances, I would pack my shovel and move smartly to the nearest train station. However, there were extenuating circumstances; I hope that you will at least allow me to present some meager evidence at my show trial which may at the very least garner me some leniency. It appears that I too have been the target of a bigoted campaign to hack into my system and prevent me from dropping the other shoe (as it were) that would have provided much greater context. I confess that as a result and most regrettably, Commissarka Pinkie, I have offended your feminine feminist sensibilities and the sensibilities of countless other comrades. My heart is most deeply troubled.
[HIGHLIGHT=#ffff00]You will note, however, as the first exhibit in my meager, useless defense that I pointed out that there would need to be SEVERAL changes to the arts and sculptures of soon-to-be USSA-Occupied liberated Rio. And I want to present an example of the desirable changes. I also pointed out that the statue in the photo was NOT party approved, but had intended to use it as a BEFORE renovation photo. The technical difficulties have precluded the timely dissemination of the AFTER photo…much to my chagrin.[/HIGHLIGHT]
So, before I am sent away, please be patient as I attempt to rectify the matter, hopefully to the Party's (and of course your) satisfaction?

[HIGHLIGHT=#ffff00]There! Does Commissarka Pinkie find this more to her liking? For obvious reasons, I suggest we not subject this version to the vat of urine.[/HIGHLIGHT]


Oh… And I DO like the vat of urine angle (for the older version)! I confess that I had not thought of that! But we have time to delve deeply into the myriad possibilities yet…and no one Party Member should ever receive the credit….except of course The Great One (apuH). We can and SHOULD all participate in motivational creative propaganda arts to spur on the glorious invasion libration of Rio.

Commissar Theocritus:

PLEASE! Be my guest. We have received authority from an Inner Party Directive to hang as many racist RethugliKKKans (and their IOC lackeys) from the arms as will fit. The Party's Structual Engineer has issued a certification stating that the arms will support the weight and should allow us to hang the required thought criminals safely.

Please record the executions and post them here.... I do like enjoy public executions!

Commissarka Pinkie:

I also plead that I am still a relative novice to the Cube and the mechanics of Comrade Al Gore's wonderful invention. Perhaps this and the Right-Wing plot may explain away my alleged ThoughCrimes on your most endearing site?

(Trumpet Blast from the Telescreen)

Comrades! Great News from our New Battlefront in Rio! Victory is almost nearly at hand!

As it happens, Comrades, the great news of our impending invasion annexation of Rio has leaked to the masses in that city which is soon to be OURS! Their exhuberance at being led by The Great One (apuH) has led to thongs throngs gathering in the streets in record numbers.

Many of the younger, more lithe young ladies with ample….er….features were even dancing nearly naked, half-naked and some even fully naked through the streets in anticipation of throwing themselves at the feet of the Redeemer of Rio, our own Dear Leader (apuH). I have posted the more feminist friendly photos from our vanguard spies here for your encouragement. I would post the even MORE encouraging photos here, but I fear I may already be treading upon thin ice with certain other party members.

(murmuring in the background)

Ok, Ok!.... ONE of the Slightly more encouraging photos....But this is IT! If you want to post anything more racy, then you will have to incur the wrath of Commissarka Pinkie's shovel on your own! I'm not going there!

Do you know though what those costumes smell like after the talent-shitting pigeons?

I think that of course we ought to invade Brazil. After all, they won't fight back and for Made Progressives like us that's the main thing. We never say boo to a goose which might flap its wings. Suggest that a Muslim might not kill us? We just don't understand. But Brazil has no ability whatsoever to hurt us.

So let's invade.

I believe you're already familiar with the business end of my shovel, but if not, here's the perfect opportunity for you to become reacqauinted:

WHACK!!!

What happened today is once again a result of the mess Obama inherited from Bush. If you don't believe me, check out this truly independent source:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2002/fe ... ympicgames

The wave of American jingoism and intense security that has marked the first week of the Winter Olympics here has led to senior officials of the International Olympic Committee privately expressing concerns about whether the US can ever stage another Olympic event.
The games have already been dubbed the "red, white and blue Olympics" because almost every event has patriotic overtones in the wake of the terrorist attacks on September 11. Nationalism has always been a part of the Olympics but IOC officials here feel the event is being used simply as propaganda for the US war effort.

Surely you also remember the unfair, so-called "home team" advantage exploited under Bush . . . the chants of "USA! USA!" that only intimidated teams from other countries and made the rest of us feel that we weren't really patriotic if we didn't cheer for Bush and his phony, immoral war . . . because that's exactly what he used the Olympics for, and in so doing he poisoned a bunch of like-minded white European old guys.

The tone was set during the opening ceremony when President Bush broke with protocol by opening the games from a position among a group of US athletes. He then departed from the Olympic charter when he put the words "On behalf of a proud, determined and grateful nation", in front of the official line, "I declare open the Games of Salt Lake City..."

Only a bloodthirsty tyrant would dare to change the sacred words that declare the Games open into an opportunity to glorify his thirst for world domination via mass murder. At an event when all the world should join hands and come together as one, Bush had to ruin everything and desecrate it by turning something beautiful into another one of his self-glorifying Nazi rallies.


On the other hand, Obama had but this one chance to do something that no one else has ever done before, something only he could do--bring the whole world together, and what better place than the place where he met and fell in love with Michelle . . . where he sat in Bill Ayers' living room . . . where he launched his public life of service to--to--well, he launched his public life of service. And, as he was considerate enough to remind the IOC, as even you seem to have forgotten--it was the city where he became the President of the United States.

Yes, he could've brought the whole world together. That's more than Bush or you or anyone else has ever thought of doing. All you can think of is snatching it away from Obama and wallowing in your Schadenfreude--whereas I think of nothing but raising awareness of how much I care about discussing the importance of creating ways to call attention to the need for all of us to determine how we can best serve him, our President, by finding new opportunities for him to bring the whole world together.

And we must take action now, for there is so little time in which to do so.

In the meantime, Whoopie, I expect you to apologize to me, and then to Obama, and then again on the floor of Party Headquarters, after which you will resign from all your committees.

And don't forget to pick up your teeth this time.

Let us not be too harsh on comrade.
Dear Leader was honored with Nobel Peace Prize to make up for IOC mistake.
Let bygones be bygones, comrade. Have drink of vodka and put boots together by fire.
Just think! Comrade Stalin was awarded Peace Prize and comrade Hitler was thought about by committee. Comrade Arafat and comrade Mussolini was as well.
So dear Leader must be proud of this moment in history.

I denounce all of you Progressives for wasting so much time on issues that are known and proven, its all Bush's fault. And for not being progressive. We must progress i.e. keep moving forward in Total control of USA enlightened education of our citizens. This describes the commitment and sacrifice of Dear Annointed one and his team and you should stop this behavior and try to emulate them.Biden Calls Dibs On Qaddafi's Clothes

WASHINGTON—Interrupting a meeting of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Tuesday, Vice President Joe Biden called dibs on the clothes of Muammar Qaddafi, saying he wanted first pick of the Libyan dictator's wardrobe as soon as he was deposed. "I've had my eye on those threads for years," said Biden, promising the assembled military officers they could have Qaddafi's print shirts or any assorted hats and sunglasses that Biden didn't want. "I need a couple of his traditional nomad outfits for this sheikh-themed party I'm throwing. And those uniforms with all the medals are pretty sweet." According to sources, Biden was unable to lay claim to Qaddafi's Bedouin tents because Energy Secretary Steven Chu had called them minutes earlier.

As we sit here discussing this old news Dear First Black President and Lady are working to line up the next generation of our leaders in 2012.

"Before I officially throw my hat in the ring, it's imperative that I gauge the viability of [shift leader] Carrie [Bullock] cutting me some slack on the weekends," said Connelly, adding that early polling suggested a high likelihood that Derek would be cool about swapping a couple Thursdays. "2012 will be a landmark election, and that's why it's important to get my name out there early, particularly among anyone on morning shift who might be willing to pull a double." While a final decision remained weeks away, Connelly stated that the committee was on track to file official paperwork with the Federal Election Commission in June, provided someone on his team had access to a printer.

White House To Hold Second Auditions This Week For Nationwide Production Of 'Guys And Dolls'

'We're Still Looking For A Really Good Nathan Detroit,' Obama Says

[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif !important]The president and Gen. Petraeus watch three of the nation's citizens audition for the "Fugue For Tinhorns" trio.

[/font]
[font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif !important].WASHINGTON—Saying they are very close to casting all the principal parts for the nationwide stage production of Guys And Dolls, White House officials announced Monday that a second round of auditions will be held this Thursday, and that the show's director, President Barack Obama, is still looking for the perfect person to fill the lead role of Nathan Detroit.
An early cast list posted on the front door of the Capitol Building Sunday revealed that while Obama left the space next to Detroit's name blank, the part of Sister Sarah Brown has gone to 40-year-old claims adjuster Erin Daniels of Birmingham, AL, and that Benny Southstreet will be played by Canton, OH retiree Paul Burnsworth.
The role of Nicely Nicely Johnson will be portrayed by Chief Justice John Roberts, who reportedly turned out to be "quite the little tap dancer" and wowed Obama with his rendition of "Sit Down, You're Rockin' The Boat."
"I would like to thank the 110 million Americans who came out for the first round of auditions, and urge them to remember that, if they were not called back, there's still plenty of room in the chorus for anyone who wants to get involved, and I'm casting extra gamblers and Hot Box Dolls, too" said the president, who is staging the two-act musical with assistant director Gen. David Petraeus, stage manager Austan Goolsbee, and pit conductor and attorney general Eric Holder. "Also, the role of Nathan Detroit is still wide open. We need a really strong Nathan. He pretty much carries the show."

"For those of you who are interested, please bring 16 bars of music, preferably from Nathan's first big number, 'The Oldest Established,'" added Obama, saying he wants to see how well the actors sell the songs. "[Show choreographer] Hillary Clinton will be doing her own callback for 'The Crapshooters' Dance,' so if you are on her list, wear something comfortable and be prepared to move. Okay?"
Though Obama reportedly told his creative team that he knew he had his Miss Adelaide the moment Iowa resident Amy Williams opened her mouth to sing "A Bushel And A Peck," and that 45-year-old real estate agent Dale Evans was "born to play Sky [Masterson]," casting Nathan has been much more challenging.
Obama, who has heard more than 8 million Americans sing for the part, stressed to reporters that his Nathan should be feckless as well as charming, within driving distance of Washington, able to hit a high F, and available to rehearse five nights a week.
"I'm not going to settle for to my lead role," Obama was overheard saying after being urged to cast Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) in the part. "Max [Harrison] didn't have any chemistry with Adelaide, and Nathan [Lane] was okay, but nothing special."
"Look, I'm confident that 'Adelaide's Lament' and 'Take Back Your Mink' will be showstoppers, but the second-act duet won't carry the same emotional or comedic heft without a standout Nathan." Obama added. "The audience needs to connect with him immediately."
The production—which runs May 26 to 29, with a preview performance for the Hagerstown, MD Rotary Club—marks the revival of a tradition started in 1935 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who not only directed Anything Goes, but starred as America's No. 13 most-wanted gangster, Moonface Martin. Past highlights include teacher Linda Miller's portrayal of Julie Jordan in the 1945 production of Carousel, and Defense Secretary Robert McNamara leaving audiences in stitches as J. Pierrepont Finch in Lyndon Johnson's How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying.
The tradition stopped abruptly in 1991 when President George H.W. Bush directed a shockingly graphic revival of the musical Hair.
If Obama is to breathe new life into the institution—and private comments about his desire to put up A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum next year indicate that he does—sources said the president needs to find his leading man by Thursday.
"We'll probably have auditioners read the scene where Nathan tries to convince the owner of the Biltmore Garage to let him have his craps game there," props master and set builder Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf told reporters. "The president says that scene really encapsulates Nathan, but if he doesn't find what he's looking for, it could be a long night."
At press time, Obama was reportedly in the White House figuring how he was going to block the large ensemble number "Havana" when he overheard Vice President Joe Biden singing "Luck Be A Lady" with perfect pitch

I wonder if there is a chance for Comrade Peloski to play the part of Eliza Dolittle and sing "Wouldn't It Be Loverly if I were the Speaker Again?"

Vilhelm, I quite like your idea of a national production of Guys and Dolls. It will preemptively keep people from calling for the production of Thugs and Bitches. Same cast of course. Only the title changes.

Leninka, I do take your point about Nanski singing for her old job, but I would think that she might be better served by Dr. Frankenfurter's "I'm Just a Sweet Transvestite from Transsexual" in his RHPS drag. Because underneath Nanski's botox, do we know whom, or what, we actually have?
