Vindman is a windbag

Kamala Harris today tweeted this video of Mr. Vindman with a heartfelt comment:

Lieutenant Colonel Vindman is the embodiment of the American dream, and his message to his father earlier today cannot be overlooked. He is a true profile in courage.

Image

But earlier this year, Kamala Harris also tweeted this about her friend, Jussie Smollett:

@JussieSmollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I'm praying for his quick recovery. This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.
She is such a good judge of character. Let's pray for Vindman.

ABC has also posted today a video of Mr. Vindman with this comment:

Rep. Devin Nunes refers to Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman as "Mr. Vindman." "Ranking member, it's lieutenant colonel Vindman, please," Vindman responds.

It seems that Mr. Vindman is now on his way to join the pantheon of heroic prog-martyrs, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Christine Blasey Ford, Jussie Smollett, and others.

Let me respond with this prepared, prog-off statement:

As another immigrant from Soviet Ukraine: Vindman, you're a windbag. I shouldn't even call you a fellow immigrant. You were brought to the US by your dad with a cushy refugee status and government assistance, living among welfare sponges on Brighton Beach. You didn't know the hardships of living in the USSR, you didn't make a conscious decision to move here, and you never struggled to feed a family as an immigrant, left to your own devices, like I have. Your sanctimonious, manipulative drivel about being an "immigrant" made me sick to my stomach.

Let me yield the floor to Tim Kennedy, UFC Fighter, Ranger, sniper, and Special Forces Operator:

Correcting a civilian about how to be addressed is a sure way to make everyone in the military think you are a douche bag.
Whatever good your service may have done to this nation in the past, is now being negated tenfold by the harm you're doing by participating in a coup against the duly elected president, by undermining his foreign policy, and by appearing before the cameras to read the scripts written for you by treacherous, power-hungry liars.

Vindman was so glad to be an immigrant to America, he proudly served in the American military as an anti-American.

Interesting equation: Vindman = Windbag. Who woulda thunk it?

(the guy, I mean, the Lt. Col. has definitely the vibes of, as vee say hier, a Bürohengst, = office stallion, think typewriter PowerPoint warrior)

User avatar
OK, so...where's the beef? What evidence does Vindman bring of an impeachable offense? Other than being rather butthurt that Trump, as POTUS, had the audacity to promote his vision of a Ukrainian foreign policy and not Vindman's. Policies which have greatly benefitted Ukraine BTW far more than Barack Obama's policies.

Rep Nunes' error was that he was grossly premature, as Vindman hasn't EARNED the honorific title of "Mister" yet.

And Rubbing his title in the nose of a congressional representative is a blatant display of self absorbed dumbassery... I'm sure this clown is what we called a "telephone Colonel", the jerk who would call someplace and say "this is Colonel (name), and I need..." to fluff up his own self importance. (Granted, it is acceptable to refer to a Lieutenant Colonel and a Colonel both as Colonel, but you dont do it to yourself)

That summmabidge sure has a lot of sparkly stuff on his jacket...

‘Mister” is and always has been a proper form of addressing a commissioned officer.

Just sayin'.

The Twitter and Facebook "widescreen" picture ratio forces me to make "widescreen" images where I can't always fit all the desired elements. In the one above, Goodman's face is truncated and Steve Buscemi's head is completely hidden. So here's the same iconic scene from Big Leibowsky made into a square, with all the actors in palce, including Leutenant Colonel Windbag.

Image I wanted to show Steve Buscemi, whom I began to like even more after The Death of Stalin, where he did a hilarious job playing Khrushchev. I was dying.

Should Smollett be addressed as Lieutenant Colonel as well?

Comrade!

As I'm sure your aware, the true meaning of the rank is found in Spanish, IE, El Colon, or 'The Ass' as we used to say. Your quite right, he has quite a bit of sparkly stuff on his jacket but I'm afraid that's par for the course these days, as I'm sure you're familiar.

BREAKING: the US-Ukraine corruption turns out to be much more than just one Biden. It's a huge multi-level money laundering scheme in which the Bidens are a tiny cog. When the Dems want us to leave Biden alone, they're protecting many other, yet unnamed players.....

UPDATE:
This post has now developed into its own illustrated topic and I moved it here:

Biden a cog in a much larger US-Ukraine corruption scheme

Since he was a child growing up in Brighton Beach, Vindman wanted to be a Barbara Boxer.

Mr. Vindman (aka Lootenint Kernel) stated yesterday that he had once urged President Zelensky not to meddle in American internal affairs, i.e., not to assist Donald Trump in his investigations lest he lose bipartisan support.

A few months later the Democrats began impeaching Trump over Vindman's allegation that Trump urged President Zelensky to assist him in his investigations lest he lose Trump's support.

Let me get this straight.

Both Trump and Zelensky are presidents of independent nations and equal counterparts. Both set their respective foreign policies. Then a shady mid-level bureaucrat named Vindman tells President Zelensky to ignore President Trump because he's not in charge, his days are numbered, the Democrats run everything, and if you disobey them they'll bust your kneecaps.

Zelensky shrugs him off and tells Trump over the phone that he's game. Vindman listens in, panics, runs to Adam Schiff, and tells him a story that later is adapted into Schiff's reenactment of the phone call as a scene from Godfather.

Now, a few questions.

It's late and I'm tired, so I'll continue tomorrow.

Hopefully Schiff will find some BS article of impeachment to draft so this can go to the Senate. To be shredded, exposed, blown to bits and otherwise dismembered with fair ROE and due process.

Лейтенант, лейтенант — ___ Lieutenant, lieutenant,
Лаковы сапожки, __________ lacquer boots so spiffy,
Если девки не дают — _____ do the girls not give?
Попроси у кошки! _________ then go beg the kitty
