From: Vitaly Sherbina
To: The Peoples Cube

I found out about your website while listening to Rush Limbaugh the other day. You, guys, are doing an AWESOME job!!! Such creativity and a keen sense of humor can be demonstrated only by someone who has already been exposed to a "progressive thinking" mindset of the former Soviet Union. Kudos to you for standing up for America!!!
I'm currently serving in Iraq and will be more than happy to share your works with the rest of the soldiers.
God Bless
Sincerely
2LT Sherbina, Vitaly

From: The Peoples Cube
To: Vitaly Sherbina

The KUDOS rightfully belong to you and your fellow soldiers defending us. Yes, I work hard every day on this website in addition to my day job, but I'm not risking my life while fighting in harsh conditions as you guys do. Please know that your service is really appreciated by the entire Cube Collective, of which I'm the only ex-Soviet. All the others are as American as the apple pie, and one is a recent immigrant from Ireland.
Your name sounds Ukrainian or maybe Russian. Were you born in the former USSR as well?
Red Square

From: Vitaly Sherbina
To: The Peoples Cube

Yes, I was born in Ukraine and like you, I have vivid memories of what the life was like then. I immigrated to the US in 1999 and have been serving in the US Army ever since. Like any immigrant, I felt so proud to get my US citizenship and be part of such a great nation and now I can't believe how the liberals are trying to demolish everything that this country was based on: the Christian values, the principles. When I go back to the States, I hear people thank me constantly for my service and for protecting my country - and believe me, it is my privilege.

But here in Iraq we are fighting the enemy who openly displays his hatred toward us and even though these Muslim 'jihadists' are always hiding behind civilians, we still manage to root them out. You, on the other hand, and people like you are fighting a totally different enemy, the enemy who is within us and whose main goal is to gradually weaken this country. [Highlighted by Vitaly] You, guys, are fighting the ideology and ideology has always been the deadliest weapon. That's why I'm very glad to use this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude and thank you for your guts and courage to stand up to the 'insurgents' within our country.

I wish you good luck and I want you to know it's great honor for me to be part of your club.

Sincerely
Vitaly

From: The Peoples Cube
To: Vitaly Sherbina

The day gets brighter every time I get acquainted with another member of "our club" as you put it. Didn't we both emigrate so that we could join this wonderful club?

God Bless Butterbar Vitaly and may he safely lead his men, complete his mission, and come home unharmed to a grateful nation.

Vitaly, if you read this and need anything, email Red so the Politburo can send a care package for you and your men. Let us know.

Comrade Sherbina - Hooah! My family regularly prays for God's blessing and protection on you and the work you and your fellow soldiers do daily.

Dittoes, Laika.

Out of Karackter indeed! "Komrade" Vitaly, greetings from Down Under. Hope you run into some Aussie Diggers in the course of your work. If you do, avoid Fosters beer. It's not really Australia's national beer. It's totally foul.

I recently travelled to Germany to visit friends in the former east, and saw that "Ostalgie" (Nostalgia for the former regime) is disturbingly evident. The universities, much like ours, are bristling with revolutionaries who turn the concept of right and wrong upside down.

But the most memorable thing about my trip happened not half an hour after arriving at Frankfurt: meeting Sam in an airport coffee lounge, a lonely US soldier on two weeks leave from Iraq (postings in Tikrit and Fallujia, I think). The conversation started because he'd met Aussie soldiers and picked my accent. It went for two hours. The stories he told me were horrifying. As great as my holiday was, it was an honour to spend two hours with an unsung hero, who will probably get a barrage of Liberal abuse when, God Willing, he returns. I think about him often, wondering if he's okay, and regretting not at least getting an email address.

Anyhow, our deepest and most heartfelt thanks. Stay safe.

Vitaly Sherbina,

Ride em Cowboy!!!!

When you get out or on leave and happen to be in Wyoming or Colorado please let me know? Would love to take out you and yours.

I have it easy here. This area (Wyoming/Colorado) citizens are as pro-military as it gets.

The US has changed because we have had it too easy and we didn't see the enemy all around us. I am ashamed that the country has changed so much during my life. (But still not here- we're solid red). When you get out please consider settling here? We honor veterans.

My father was the late Robert Wallace of the 1143rd Combat Engineers in WWll. He lost his arm at the Remagen bridge. He had three job offers the day he got out and he said the experience made him a better man

I couldn't agree more with everything said here.

May God bless you all a thousand times over for having the BALLS to Volunteer to stand up against the tyranny of these ideological infant 'jihadists' and their myopic view of reality.

Please give our regards to all the men and women with whom you serve, steadfastly braving the elements and dangers to secure a foothold of freedom in an unforgiving climate of repression.

(Here's a nice article I found at Townhall.com for a bit more info about the Soldiers of Company B, 194th Combined Arms Battalion for those who may be interested.)

God bless, Vitaly, and thank you for your selfless sacrifice. Without men like you, there would be no freedom in this world.

Not all American as Apple Pie... one Canadian here (with family in Israel) who more than appreciates what you're doing for all of us. I regularly hear too many Canadians grumble about the 'war' Canada is supposedly fighting in Afghanistan - not even realizing that what it is, officially, is a 'peace mission'... and not even remotely comparable to what the US is doing in Iraq or the level of danger US soldiers face every minute you're there. Please know that not all of us 'up here' are left-wing granola-head moonbats with no sense of the value of the freedoms too many take for granted. We have them because of individuals like you, and some of us can only wish our armed forces were still as strong as those of our southern neighbour. You have the gratitude of many Canadians for the sacrifice you make not only for your own country, but in defending ours as well!

With deepest thanks and wishes for your safe return,
Sister

Lt Sherbina, America is the greatest country on earth because of courageous souls like you who flee oppression to come here, and then bravely go abroad again to risk your life and limb fighting oppression elsewhere, so that you can share with others the cherished freedom too many Americans sadly take for granted. I can't think of anything more selfless than what you're doing!

I'm proud to be an American thanks to people like you. God bless and keep safe you and your fellow troops. We believe in you!

Oopsss...Sorry Sister, a self-criticism session with a shovel for this comrade!

I guess your image as a Sister has been planted into our collective brain so thoroughly that a comrade has to stop and think before realizing that you're indeed a "foreigner from the non-socialist sector." But individual thinking requires a special permission from the Party headquarters, and that sometimes gets delayed for weeks and even months.

Your constant reminders about your exceptional Kanukism after a while begin to sound like one of those harmless medication-induced fantasies, similar to imagining oneself being a weaponized dolphin with a broom.

But I understand that the Party does not believe in excuses, and so I willingly submit for re-education, a suitcase with warm clothes in hand.

Glorious Incarnadine Trapezoid
Comrade People's Director,

Ultimately, the thoughtcrime is mine, since once one has joined the kollective, borders and species should not matter. I harp on my nationality more out of criticism for our social policies than for any other reasons, though you must admit that our free medicine and our lax immigration policies are a wonder of social engineering, as is our almost complete lack of dedication to maintaining a working military, as sanctioned by our last ruling regime (sadly, the current kkkonservative government is working diligently to dismantle all the forward social movement that took place during those glorious Lefty-Liberal years when free granola flowed in the streets)... I can only be thankful that they have not yet cut off my drug supply, though I suppose were I to have to switch to 'herb' there are enough 'grow-ops' up here that were we inclined to include it in GDP, the income from the pot we ship down south would be greater than that of most EU countries in total in any given year...

In any case, please do not be troubled. The Cube has accepted me with such open arms that I honestly hardly think about it, except, again, when contrasts arise... besides, our lax borders provide a good base of operations from which the pod can come and go on our Cubist missions for The People TM, and since the rest of the Politburo are willing participants in my cetacean military and hygeinic fantasies, drug induced or otherwise, I am more than happy to serve the kollektive in that capacity...

In the mean time, I hope that Lt. Sherbina knows that despite my joking, and my Canadian heritage, Canada does have a proud military history that many of us are ashamed has been tarnished by the neglect of too many Liberal regimes in the past forty years. It is an embarrassment to many of us, who hold the sacrifice made by the US armed forces, and our own, in the highest regard, and know what it means for our freedom... and do not take it for granted. And we do give thanks for his and his brothers' and sisters' selfless bravery defending those freedoms, and wish for their safe return.

Faithfully
SMO

ps... we've got lots of warm clothes up here... just bring your shovel...

2nd Lt. Vitaly Sherbina,

Many thanks to you Vitaly...Thank You


I was listening to Neal Boortz todayImagehttp://boortz.com/nuze/index.html, I live in Atlanta and he is the radio god in these parts. Mr. Boortz is often very critical of Government Education and the all powerful teachers unions. Boortz started talking about a teacher in Arkansas that had removed all the desks from her classroom on the first day of school, the teacher told the students "You can't have a desk until you tell me how you earn them." When I heard this I automatically figured it was going to be some left-wing BS that we have all become familiar with. The Story...

In September of 2005, a social studies schoolteacher from Arkansas did something not to be forgotten. On the first day of school, with permission of the school superintendent, the principal, and the building supervisor, she took all of the desks out of the classroom. The kids came into first period, they walked in; there were no desks. They obviously looked around and said, "Where's our desks?"

The teacher said, "You can't have a desk until you tell me how you earn them."

They thought, "Well, maybe it's our grades."

"No," she said.

"Maybe it's our behavior."

And she told them, "No, it's not even your behavior."

And so they came and went in the first period, still no desks in the classroom. Second period, same thing. Third period. By early afternoon television news crews had gathered in the class to find out about this crazy teacher who had taken all the desks out of the classroom. The last period of the day, the instructor gathered her class.

They were at this time sitting on the floor around the sides of the room. She said, "Throughout the day no one has really understood how you earn the desks that sit in this classroom ordinarily. Now I'm going to tell you."

She went over to the door of her classroom and opened it, and as she did 27 U.S. veterans, wearing their uniforms, walked into that classroom, each one carrying a school desk. And they placed those school desks in rows, and then they stood along the wall. By the time they had finished placing the desks, those kids for the first time I think perhaps in their lives understood how they earned those desks.

Their teacher said, "You don't have to earn those desks. These guys did it for you. They put them out there for you, but it's up to you to sit here responsibly, to learn, to be good students and good citizens, because they paid a price for you to have that desk, and don't ever forget it."




Origins: Often glurge is long on inspiration but short on truth, so it is refreshing to encounter a tale that reports the facts with little (if any) embellishment.

The text that now circulates in e-mail was drawn from former Governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee's 2 March 2007 address to the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, DC. It recounts events from the first day of classes in Fall 2005 for students enrolled in Martha Cothren's military history class at Joe T. Robinson High School in Little Rock, Arkansas.

The room was indeed devoid of desks, with the missing furniture borne in at the end of the day by a group of veterans. Each vet carried a desk and set it down, as the teacher gave her lesson on the cost of things taken for granted and the debt owed to those in the forces.

I talked to Martha Cothren about that day and also about her military history class. This daughter of a World War II POW regularly has veterans visit her classroom— it's one of the ways she teaches her course on the history of World
War II and the Vietnam War. Her class doesn't yet have a textbook (she is busy writing one), so she uses less typical methods of imparting knowledge about those events to her students. Part and parcel of what she teaches is an appreciation for members of the armed forces.

In May 2005, she and her class organized a Vietnam Veterans Recognition Week, including an official "Thank You Ceremony" held in the Joe T. Robinson High School auditorium. Veterans from World War II and the Korean War also attended, as did people from all walks of life, to honor those who had served. During that week, students videotaped veterans as they recounted their war memories, thus preserving their stories for later generations.

Cothren and her students have sent numerous care packages to U.S. military personnel serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. They also write letters to soldiers in those theaters, sending off 1,200 missives in 2005-2006. (The tally for 2006-2007 won't be available until the end of the school year.)

In 2006 the Veterans of Foreign Wars named Martha Cothren their "Teacher of the Year."

Comrade Sherbina,

Your inspirational letter makes me want to register yet another account at Daily Kos, with the malicious intent to rhetorically crush the incoherent ramblings of their disingenuous posters (for the short time before I am banned). This is War! I shouted to myself. I'll call it the KOS Offensive. Thanks for finding us. Thanks for thinking so highly of us, as we do you. I can't speak for all the Comrade's here, but Comrade Red Square's tireless devotion to the cause is inspirational to me. Like Boxer, the work horse from Animal Farm, I will work harder. You, Comrade Sherbina, are the Knight's Templar in the latest fight against Muslim crusade. Keep up the good fight. All the best.

2LT Sherbina,

Stay safe kid. Listen to your NCOs (especially your PSG). Know your Soldiers inside and out. Look out for them, train them, keep them fully prepared and they will look out for you.

Here are the words my grandfather, a WWII US Army Staff Sergeant, told my father when he volunteered with the US Army in Vietnam and me when I took over my tank platoon (years ago):

"No shit you are 'responsible for everything your platoon does and fails to do'. That is the same shit they taught our 90 day wonder LTs in WWII. But you better fucking believe that your NCOs RUN the unit".

His words are as true today as they were 11 years ago.

Trust yourself; trust your men; trust your training; and TRUST your NCOs (if you cannot, ask for new NCOs). Do this and you will succeed.

Stay safe and KICK ASS!!!

Yours in Service,
One older major between tours.

Comrade Sherbina,

The Pup is so glad he can slip out of character a bit here as well seeing as my Comrades have (of course I am keeping record of all this so I can denounce them later). The Pup can't tell you how proud he is that we still have some people who understands what this is all about and willing to make the sacrifices, and it's even more heartening to know that you came from a background without the freedoms we have here. Stay safe, and thank you so much!

User avatar
Thank you, 2nd Lt., for all that you are doing.
Red, is there a way that we at the PC community might contribute together to a care package? Laika's suggestion at the beginning of this thread sparked me to think on this. I know that there are communities online (like Soldier's Angels) which distribute such packages. Perhaps there's a way we can as a community show support for these men more than just snappy repartee.

User avatar
Comrade Sherbina,

You are Red Square on Steroids! (I know you -- and Red Square-- understand that to be the high compliment it's intended to be.) As Kommisar of the Workplace, I know that you are Red Square in the REAL workplace.

We, your comrades who battle the "insurgents at home," are safe (thanks to you) to merely use rhetorical weapons and to merely have rhetorical weapons fired at us. Meanwhile, the rhetorical weapons being fired at you by the "insurgents at home" give such aid and comfort to the enemy that they actually pose a danger to your life.

Therefore, to you and your fellow troops, we say with no tongue in cheek: "Thanks In Our Name For Deeds In Our Name." You can find it at http://politicalxray.Com/Thanks.htm or on YouTube (just recently) in three size/speed configurations: 16mb version for highest-speed connections at http://youtube.com/watch?v=qn3BFEIanwk; 9mb version for high-speec connections at http://youtube.com/watch?v=aKZ8rPlrngQ or 5mb version for medium-speed connections at http://youtube.com/watch?v=KA7mQbk1zWs.



Regarding the "insurgents at home," see "Bridge on the River Kwai Fie" at http://youtube.com/watch?v=9n2qHY96azM and "Extra Backpack Support for the Troops" at http://youtube.com/watch?v=K5iYNnM9VXw; but fear-not because a new Gathering of Eagles on September 15, 2007, will replicate, if not exceed, their March 17, 2007, routing of the Gathering of Code Pink (see http://youtube.com/watch?v=eSbaepnu3sQ).

And, take heart from the fact that so many of your comrades who've already done "heavy lifting" in Iraq and Afghanistan are now doing the rhetorical heavy-lifting at home to counter the "insurgents at home"-- see Vets for Freedom at http://VetsForFreedom.Org.

When you need a mental break, you may find comfort in the fact that although we've given-up waterboarding, we've replaced it with a far more effective interrogation technique: WretchBoarding -- see http://youtube.com/watch?v=Bxntq80cKEI.

In closing, to reiterate my thanks, I quote part of what I wrote for the Fourth of July about our troops:

So little they ask for so much that they give
That we may in freedom continue to live
That more than just "thank you" to them we must give.
The "more" they would want is not "something" to give:
It's what's given best by our lives when we live
In ways to be worthy of all they did give.
The "everyman" private named "Ryan" perceived
This truth on returning to Normandy's beach
By posing a question whose asking does teach
The answer to "What do we owe the deceased?"
Asked Ryan, "Please tell me the life I did weave
Has honored the gift that from them I received."
(Full "Fourth of July Thanks" at http://youtube.com/watch?v=S09Bs1QXKpQ).

Egads! That water wretching video has me ready to confess! Yes, it's true I saw Commissar Theocritus helping a homeless person for no reason whatsoever and I didn't report him. SOM was swimming with a pod that was not her own and I didn't report her! I even know of an incident where the Chairman actually replaced his work proles shovels with new, sharpened ones because he could not bear to see them working so hard, and yet I didn't turn him in. I will say anything... whatever you want, just don't make me see that video again!

User avatar
Commissar Pupovich,

Reverting back to my formal role, for the benefit of any progressive person fearing capture by the Rumsfeld Renegades, I'm hereby providing a link to a visual "pre-capture" training tool to innoculate progressives against what would otherwise be the terrifying effect of WretchBoarding.

It uses the visage of one of The Collective's greatest admirers and promoters in the MSM, but, given her loyalty to the Collective, I'm sure she'll see the Greater Good in this use of her visage. To access the tool, use this link:

(WretchBoarding Innoculator).

As is self-evident from examining the training tool , studying it for at least four hours a day would render one completely impervious to "WretchBoarding" by making it seem pleasant rather than terrifying by comparison.

Good luck in building your pre-captivity resistance.

Lenin help me! Who could possibly endure such a training? I guess I best just count on my trusty cyanide capsule should I ever be captured.

Comrade TankoGrad,

I've deleted most your quote except the following portion, which I've italicized:

I have seen the link.... And in response to the picture presented, I will quote the words of a glorious Saddam era T-55 Commander upon sighting the dreaded Capitalist M1 Abrams tank:

Assuming you have swallowed hook, line and sinker the American propaganda touting the invulnerability of the M1 (my familiarity ended with the M-60), I must warn you that the visage of The Collective's Favorite Propounder in the White House Press Room Gaggle has been shown to emit such an ominously powerful glare that it can simultaneously melt-through both sides of an M-1. The only safe place would be inside a Yugo, at which her visage can only cast a cooling, green light. Remember the new Green-Warfare slogan: "Breasts Not Bombs in Yugos Not Tanks."

Please resume your pre-captivity innoculation and barfing. It may save your life-- especially if you barf on the visage.

User avatar
Thank You Kommisar,

I am now innoculated and rehydrating from 2-day barfing. I am also happy in the knowledge that my pre-owned "hybrid" Yugo (It has no floorboards so I can push it while also being able to steer!) is safe!!!

////////Out of Character/////////
The M1 is to the M60 what the M60 was to the M4 Sherman. Max speed is well above any other MBT and most Infantry Carriers. Max armor has not been penetrated on frontal slope (though many have tried). Max effective cannon range for the new M256 120mm cannon with the M1A2SEP's ballistic computer are twice that of a T-72's. The M1 is more accurate at full speed, cross country, than the M60 was standing still. Crew protection is maximized (not perfect, but the best there is). It is very cramped, but not a bad ride.

The M60 had one advantage over M1A1s (Not the A2SEPS) in that the old TTS on the M60s was a REALLY good sight and very clear. We had one at the Range Tower on Range 301 at Graff for sighting purposes and I liked it better than the M1A1's. I also like the M60's boat hull better for going over soupy mud.

Dear Comrade TankoGrad,
I've been so busy trying to get the "Breasts Not Bombs Yugos for Tanks" (BNBYFT) rolling of the assembly line for the "Insurgents at Home" that I may be late responding to news of your slowly being innocullated against WretchBoarding. Be careful not to be captured by Rumsfeld or Cheney. Soon the prototype BNBYFT will be rolling off the assembly-line, and I hope to release video footage. One of the problems is that it uses a "wringer" as a breach-loader and every time one of our Code Pink Breasts-Not-Bombs test-gunners tries to "load," she gets one of her "Bombs" caught in the wringer. She wants to drive the prototype to Dee Cee on Sept. 15, but I'm not sure it will be ready. I've suggested she abandon traveling in the BNBYFT and instead hitch a ride with Comrade Gore in the prototype he developed, which became the inspiration for the BNBYFT as the modern weapon for Green Warfare. (The technical specifications are here.) I've warned her that unless she travels to the Code Pink protest with special protection (perhaps even accompanied by Comrade Murtha), however, she'll be at the mercy of Eagles) who will be also gathering there. As for me, I'd still prefer the M-60 over the BNBYFT (but surely not over the awesome M1)-- at least I never got my main gun caught in the breach.

Vitaly,
One American to another....Thank you and you buddies for your service!
I can't quite get the lingo here...or speak it....but I agree with you 100%. This website nails liberal BS with explosive wit...nearly as good as you guys giving it to the enemy!

"IF YOU ARE NOT WITH US YOU ARE AGAINST US"

Does this concept apply to the treasonous liberal traitors who are throwing our military and country under the bus?
I'm not sure who is worse...al qaida or liberal congress and senate members.
If in power they will surely kill many innocent American because they have a faulty belief system...as does radical Islam.

We got a bunch of pinky spineless girly men in my town who hoist signs aloft every Friday which state, "Support Our Troops...Bring Them Home!"
Bring the troops home so we can fight the enemy on our door steps????
I'm all in favor of bringing you guys home...after you kill all the "Peace Loving" bastards who would prefer to be over here slitting our throats!

Tell me.....do you still get 24/7 NPR but only one hour of Rush?

User avatar
I know how I feel about this "support the troops, bring them home" crap. Now I have never been in uniform, but then I don't have to have been to understand this: If I was doing a job for which sought, one that I have a talent for doing, I damn sure wouldn't feel like I was being supported if some nut jobs were shouting how much they support the "company" I work for, but don't want me to do my job and to come home.

Hi, Guys... I just wanted to thank you for all your support and encouragement that I received from your comments. I shared them with some of my soldiers and we agreed that your feedback was a tremendous morale booster. It's good to know that people not only within the USA, but even outside it's borders, show the same support and share the same concerns over the world's future as we do. God Bless All of you. Speaking of the world's future, I'm sure you are aware of Ahmadinejad's visit to NYC. It's sickening to see Columbia University give this fanatic such a treatment. I guess these "educated" clowns honestly believe that by giving this monster a chance to express his sick ideas will somehow benefit the world's peace. I suppose we should bring these "great, impressionable minds" to this wretched place and show them the mangled bodies of our guys that were killed with the mines and rockets supplied by Iran.

To Vitaly Sherbina,
As Kommisar of Fatwas, I must step of out character to say the thanks go from us to you. Since my last posting, and shortly after my participation in a DeeCee counter-Moonbat operation, my out-of-character self has channeled with the spirit of Winston Churchill about his famous statement after British RAF fighter pilots won the Battle of Britain despite being greatly outnumbered. Churchill's spirit kindly agreed to return and allow me to capture (in video form) his insights about the now-ongoing Battle of D.C. I hope you like it:

To you, one of the few, from one of the MANY from whom so much is owed, I thank you. I'm not religious, but if I were, I would say may Divine Destiny watch over you (and your fellow troops) with great care.

You got that right!!!

I made the mistake as it turns out, of going to see The Valley of Elah last night. On a forum I am a member of, the Pup does movie reviews and actually has a little following. I was going to give this movie at least a 3 paw rating and recommend it, until the very last scene. Not that it meant anything to anyone present seeing how it was the end, I got up and walked out the moment I saw just the bottom of the flag Tommy Lee Jones was raising as it was upside down. It made me sick to the stomach though I was watching for this as I knew it was a possibility. The sad thing about it, it would have been every bit as powerful and good an ending had he raised it right side up. No, I don't mind a bit ruining the end of the movie for everyone since it is my sincere hope no one goes to see it now.

It is sad and pathetic, but I can not think of even one movie made since Iraq began that showed the US or the military in a positive light. The only one that even came close was the comedy Strike Farce, and they were in Mexico thinking they were in Iraq.

Yet Hollywood had no problem whatsoever portraying the military in a very positive light in the conflict in Bosnia as shown in the movie Behind Enemy Lines. Could the difference possibly be that was Clinton's war of aggression?

You know one of the differences between me and these over the hill hippies and their young wannabe hippies? While I detested Clinton, I had no real problem with him going into Bosnia, though I defy any one to point out how Bosnia was a compelling US interest while Iraq is not. I can't recall even a single protest march about that, except perhaps when we bombed the Chinese embassy by mistake.... Hypocrites one and all! Each and every one of those idiots crying about the innocents and others dying in Iraq. They had no problem at all with this in Bosnia, nor for that matter, the Iraqis that died when Bill shot those missiles at them. Nor were there any marches in the street when Bill tried to "impose US style democracy" on the mighty military power of Haiti.

Oh Lenin help me! I will get off my doghouse now and return you to your regular mental reprogramming.

Commmissar Pupovich,

I would come into your doghouse and whack you with the Party Paper for intellectually wetting our Rhetorical Rug so defiantly except that the Party Paper is now electronic only and in multiple forms using the pseudonyms DailyKos, MoveOn.Org, HuffingtonPost, ANSWER, etc. Your punishment would be worse except for your feeble attempt at recanting your thought-crimes at the end of your post.

I fear your education-camp learning is weakening and that you're at risk of confessing too much if captured by Rumsfeld or Cheney, so you'd better spend more time renewing your pre-capture innoculation against WretchBoarding.

Now, to begin your re-training (without benefit of a paper with which to whack you): Are you fogetting that the regenerated hippies still in love with Che (forget the corpse abuse) also still remember the lesson learned from the first Hippie President, who wrote that he "loathed the [American] military"? Thus, it is only right and proper that all Hollywood movies conform to such view.

Rest assured that as soon as we elect the first Ms. Hippie as President, she will discover -- to her dismay -- that the Double B's ("BusHitler & Betrayus) have managed to salvage a situation in Iraq close enough to victory that she will be forced to continue it under a new name (Operation Fixing The Mess Bush Left In Iraq), at which time Hollywood will again make one or two token movies about the heroics of our military. (Some even say she's "tougher than Thatcher," and better-equipped to deal with evil men, but I'm not sure it's a compliment.) But don't worry, it will be short-lived before they resort to the Party Line under the Peace Dividend argument for again halfing our military to give our out-of-breath Comrade Putin (who, by then will be returning to power) time to "catch up" with us.

By the way, maybe we need to have you "fixed." I think your overactive, militaristic, aggressive hormones may be contributing to your thought crimes. (On the other hand, if you're really really concientious in continuing your innoculation against WretchBoarding long enough, that has proven to be just as effective as getting "fixed.")

Solidarity.
Kommisar of Fatwas.

This Commissar did no such thing! Did you not see the covering Out of Character icon? Though of course he was not aware such things were needed in this location as we have all been "undercover" to gather information on the imperialist forces.

(Praise Leinin we can alter history here with the push of a few buttons!)

Oh, and the Hillary has already covered this. On one show Sunday she talked about how we must get out now.... while on another....

Stephanopoulos said, "Can you pledge that all US troops will be home over the course of your first term as president?"

HILLARY: You know, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals and make pledges because I don't know what I'm going to inherit, George, I don't know and neither do any of us know what will be the situation in the region, how much more aggressive will Iran have become, what will be happening in the Middle East, how much more of an influence will the chaos in Iraq have in terms of what's going on in the greater region, will we have pushed Al-Qaeda in Iraq out of their strongholds with our new partnership with some of the tribal sheiks, or will they have regrouped and retrenched?

To Commissar Pupovich:

I've issued a new WorkPlace Fatwa to myself ordering myself into the "How to Scroll Re-Education Camp." I must be lapsing into my Pre-Progressive state of carelessness in scrolling-down too fast and thus having failed to notice your having temporarily disguised yourself in the Out Of Character icon as I foolishly focused only on your text.
What should be my punishment? Maybe I should be required to find a suitably attractive female pup to make an "I Love Commissar Pupovich" video similar to the "Obama Girl" and "Ron Paul Girl" videos?

The problem is that most of the females on our side have that sturdy, stern, and bureaucratic appearance like those once featured in those Burger King commercials many years ago modeling the latest in Soviet fashions. (Since you're 357 dog-years old, I assume you can remember those commercials, which were so unkind to the Gorbachev Girls.) Thus, I fear that you might deem such tribute to really be a form of ridicule, so I continue to search for another suitable way of making amends.

Not to worry Kommisar, it was not your scrolling too fast that you forgot, it was our ability to make history show as we wish that you forgot. LOL

Beeryoni,
Thank you for your attempts at reenergizing threads that have gone quiet. Most of which I'd never seen. I'm thrilled to be reading this one for the first time.
Although what's up with the link to your website, included in each and every comment?
Did someone tell you we at the Cube are crazy with horse love? Not that there's anything wrong with that.<br>BTW: I found the Horse Horoscope page fascinating. May I suggest changing the name to Horsoscope.

haha. i like that Maksim! and yes. i found this thread to be really amazing. thought it needed a little bump up in time.

read well comrade.
