What means this "playing cowboys and socialists"?

Report:

First my apologies to the Chairman and all my fellow party members for late report. Too much the celebrating. We here at the PC-STNC will be working double shifts to make up. So much to do. So little time until Glorious Leader is installed as Premier, sorry, I mean President.

Yesterday I couldn't wait to gloat on my BC friend (not really, but I need him). He was in yard with his dogs just like usual. He sees me and smiles.

I say; " Why you smiling? Your peoples lost election."

He grins and says; " That's the way it works here Greggy." ( I hate that grin and when he calls me that).

He say he has Cowboy Story for me ( not his original, but added to ).

I say; " I like Cowboy. Go ahead" :

Four guys at an airport waiting area. 1 Muslim ( radical fundamentalist ), 1 Socialist, 1 American Indian and a Cowboy complete with boots and ten gallon hat.

Cowboy is stretched out with hat over his eyes, seemingly taking a nap.

Three remaining strike up a conversation as follows:

Indian says; " We used to be many. Now we are few. "

Muslim RF says; " We used to few. Now we are many."

Cowboy says from under hat; " We're working on that."

Socialist says; " We used to be few. Now in America we are many."

Cowboy says from under hat; " We just haven't played cowboys and socialists yet."

Comrades I am not understanding. What means this " playing cowboys "?

Grigori, I do not understand either. I thought that the Bu$hitler was condemned as being a cowboy. Now I am a Texan, and a West Texan too, where we find nothing wrong with cowboys whatsoever. I have never understood why it is a bad thing to be a cowboy.

For out here, when a cowboy finds something that needs killing, he does it. And nobody cares.

It means that whit people are EVIL!!! They kill good people who love "freedom" and "democracy". You know, freedom from thinking and making your own choices, and a democracy where privileged elites decide how much you deserve. Only someone as evil as a white person could think of killing "freedom" loving socialists!

I think it's a sort of radical Right-wing thing to have the children and adults pretend to be Bu$hitler and chase down minorities, after all, the Bu$hitler hates minorities

User avatar
So Bu$hitler is real Cowboy? If so will he have to ride horse back to Texas?

User avatar
The Bu$hitler hates everyone. He strangles kittens and laughs at starving children. He's the stupidest person who ever lived, the product of Karl Rove, and if it weren't for the NeoCons, he'd still be recycling golf balls on the golf course of Cristobal, Texas.

Commissar Theocritis-

I have procured the RRRRs for the BBQ I would assume that it must have been your gentle persuasion that cleared up the red tape.

But I do have a problem. The RRRRs are still alive! Are they to be roasted this way, or will there be a mass execution just before we roast them? I need confirmation about what to do, as they are eating (not really necessary, as they are very plump and juicy, thanks to the RNC feeding them constantly). I may have to give them water to retain their juices, but I await your decision, Commissar.

PS- Any thoughts on the BBQ sauce and sides yet?

Dear Che'. I applaud, as always your vim and vigor. If we do not have the barbecue soon, do you think that their flavor would be improved by feeing them blueberries? Nero Wolfe thought it worked with chickens. But we should always keep up their juices; the time for desiccation is when you're making jerky.

Last night I cooked a roast and here, in Culo del Pecos, I could not get a good one and it didn't have enough fat and although perfectly roasted, was dry. What about a beer bong of good olive oil for the RRRRs? No Big Macs, of course; that Texaco rest room smell would permeate the meat.

As for sides. Being a Texan, potato salad is a must, but we'll have to get in touch with Pinkie to get into her stash of good potatoes. That, er, dear comrade happens to keep the good potatoes for herself, I find. (Note, Che': you cannot trust a comrade. Except for me, of course.)

I have a radical idea. While the meat is smoking, let's just sear some of the choicer cuts, put on toasted brioche, and cover with béarnaise. Some people strain the tarragon and shallots from the sauce, but if they're minced finely enough, and Bruno is <i>very</i> good at mincing, I find that the texture is improved on slices of RRRR.

Ah yes, My Dear Commissar Theocritis-

I am most humbled by your kind words, kind and gracious Commissar.

Alright, I'll allow them water, but please forget the blueberries. They aren't even in season and it would take tooo long to develop any flavor. The bearnaise sauce is a nice touch though, my foodie friend. BTW, when is this shindig going off, anyway??

As for your roast, inject it with olive oil or ask the butcher for a "fat cap" to drape over it when it is roasting. Presto! No more dry meat!

Oh great! Now you want hors d' ouevres too? Not to worry! This is one of my specialties. But the selections are endless. Is the MTE still coming? And are you going to take care of the libations for this Purge, ....err..Party to end All Purges Parties?

Waiting for orders, Sir,

Thank you for your kind advice, Comrade Che'. I do have a basting needle which I did not use. There will not be here any sort of caul, is that not it? in Culo de Pecos. But I could drape bacon over it. It might get crisp but there is nothing wrong with bacon fat.

As for libations. Our MTE prefers the blood of white Republican virgin girls. When she's feeling festive, she augments it with a shot of Stoly. Or absinthe. Or Varsol. Which has its advantages. If she spills it on the furniture, it takes off the paint. But if she spills it on the floor, it takes up some of the stains from the <i>last</i> time she was at the Rancho.

Once I fermented the virgins' blood for our MTE but that rascal Meow put some roofies in it, hoping to get her to divulge her Swiss bank-account numbers or the bits of the Rose Law Firm papers that never did get to light. There was a bit of stickiness; the MTE thought that Meow had made off with some of her cattle-futures funds, and indeed he had, and he wanted blackmail. And the roofies were to make her suggestible.

Unfortunately they turned her on. She started chasing Meow round and round the rancho--ever see the Warner Bros cartoon with Daffy Duck in the hospital as they go round the room and the walls flex out? It was like that, with Meow running, his tongue out, eyes popped, panting, and our MTE following him like a cattle stampede, with Bruno sitting in the middle of the room bawling and wailing.

Finally Meow found the door and shot out of there like projectile vomit. The next thing we heard he woke up in Mao's coffin on Beijing with an empty bottle of pain pills (actually my roofies) and a half-empty bottle of Jack Black. The rest is, as they say, history.

(Dear comrade Grigori! In the future, please post your comments directly on the thread or start a new thread on the Blog - don't use the "Submissions" page because I can't always find it in time and move it).

Very tired from double shifts, but we here at the PC-STNC very happy. Happy that whole world loves us again.
Rumor is spreading around the workers that World Clock to reset on Jan. 1 to year
O. Comrades. Could this be true?

Paid visit to BC friend (not. but he does make a good cup of coffee). He's in his rocking chair drinking his morning coffee and smoking one of cheap cigarettes he buys in SC.
Dogs are just staring at me. I quickly sit down.

Special note: When he's not looking each dog takes turns biting me in butt. Is why I sit down quickly. Asked him about this. He says dogs have special training. They can smell communist.
Comrades. Man is MONSTER!

I ask; " Why the peoples like Cowboy ? "

He says;

" I grew up in the city of Baltimore, State of Maryland. The State Motto was "Fatti Maschii Parole Femine" which means Manly Deeds, Feminine Words. I always took it to mean Manly Deeds, Soft Spoken.

One of your comrades at the Cube ( Commissar Theocritus) was commenting about how Cowboys don't say a whole lot. If they do it's very few in words. They see something that needs doing, they do it and go about their business. This is something millions of Americans do every day. They can identify. That's why we like cowboys.

Sorry for the spying. I just wanted to see how my student was doing.

One last thing. Scene in the first Indiana Jones movie. Giant Arab wielding a huge sword. Waving it about expertly. Indy turns, sees the Arab, promptly shoots him with his revolver and walks off. It's kind of the thing people mean when they say "Cowboy UP"

Comrades. Head is spinning. Cowboys and Indiana Jones? This man is pure EVIL. Now Cowboy UP?
