Exposing Peace Moonbats in Santa Monica

Yesterday I went on a nice, long bike ride along the coast, and in the Santa Monica mountains.

Tired, but happy, I pedaled down the Bike Path along the beach, from Doheny Beach to the Santa Monica Pier, and upon my arrival encountered a spectacle that, every Sunday, takes up a good chunk of sand right next to the pier itself.

The minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ( better known as W.A.C.K.I.E. ), with the complete support, and encouragement of those running the show in the Socialist Society of Santa Monica, use a public space, frequented by families with children, to spread propaganda, and misinformation, about the War Against Terror, and Radical Islam, and the ongoing Liberation of Afghanistan, and Iraq.

Admittedly, this is a very moving scene to witness, and walk through and, at 1st impression, a nice tribute to those who have sacrificed, and died, for our country.

But looks can be deceiving.

They describe their mission this way:

We established the "Arlington West Memorial" at Santa Monica Beach on February 15, 2004, and have maintained this weekly memorial, honoring those killed and wounded in Iraq, with thousands of white crosses, pictures of those killed, flowers, and hundreds of memorabilia left by family and friends representing the loss of their loved ones. This memorial has been featured in news stories around the world.

As I wandered among the displays of the names of the dead, pictures of the dead, and wounded, about war resistance, and military service avoidance, and about the costs, and blame, these people claim, and the table full of related merchandise for sale, and info for free, I overhear people espousing their misinformation, and propaganda, in friendly, earnest, reasonably sounding voices, to the gullible, and already ilinformed, moved by what they see around them.

Some of the people they talk to are Vets home from the war, who agree with them already for some misguided reason, others are people who know, or are related to, the names on the displays, and are easily manipulated by their emotions.

Most, however, are like me, people with no connection to those fighting for their country.

There is a display where you can "Write any messsage you choose" in honor of the troops who gave their lives, and even make a little sign, with your message, to take and attach to one of the crosses, to join other items of tribute, some left by family, and friends, to the dead.

I pulled out my pen, and finding ample space on a page, wrote a message that thanked our brave soldiers for their honorable service, and ultimate sacrifice, in the fight to liberate Iraq, and Afghanistan, and against Radical Islam, a threat to Western Civilization little understood by frighteningly far too many in the West, and signed my name, and this website url, to my message.

Arlington West, as this "Iraq War Memorial" is called Is a pet project of Veterans for Peace-Los Angeles, a chapter of the national Veterans for Peace.

What they don't tell anyone who wanders thru, and don't actively promote by the display of signs, or of free literature, are some of the orgnizations the national website links to, and who some of those sites link to, and thus, by this linkage, imply their support for the politics, and causes of:

When you dig deep enough you find:

Z Magazine

Counter Punch

Code Pink

Truthout

The Socialist Worker

International Answer

Yes, there's a link to Cindy Sheehan, but she's small potatoes compared to the above dangerous representatives of Radical Moonbatism.

I'm not linking to that trash, this time, because I want readers of this post to put in the effort to learn about these menaces themselves.

Sheryl Crow Hates Toilet Paper!

A Report of The Fighting W.a.c.k.i.e. All-over Project ( FWAP!! )  ( Yes, for any newcommers, I'm a former Liberal, hee, hee! ) and, apologies to one, and all, my 1st such report of 2007 ( Catch up here! ):

Sheryl Crow speaks!

Singer Sheryl Crow has said a ban on using too much toilet paper should be introduced to help the environment.
Crow has suggested using "only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where two to three could be required".

BBC NEWS: Crow calls for limit on loo paper.

Well Slap my Ass, and Squeeze the Charmin!

What a Maroon!

Nowhere does she explain how many Ply, or even what color, so how in the Sam Hill are we to be expected to take her ser...

Oh, wait, what am I saying?

Take her seriously?

Anyone who does is Fruitier than a Nutcake!

1st time she gets a serious case of the runs she will change her tune quick, I guarandamntee you! ;-D

Another Moonbat DOO Gooder ASSaulting the rest of our intelligence with ideas that should rightfully be flushed down the toilet. ;-D

As Don Surber says: "You will take my TP when you pry it from my cold, brown fingas!" ;-D

Check out his round-up. ;-D

Instapundit adds:

I think this is an example of “negative branding.” As I drove home, I heard a local DJ saying that no one will ever be able to listen to her music without thinking of butt-wiping …”

Comedians should bow down and, worship her, for giving them enough material for the rest of their careers. ;-D

Campaign 2008 Focus on W.A.C.K.I.E., and H.U.Y.A.M. by FWAP!!

Regular readers know that I've written about The War Against Terror, and about Illegal Immigration, over the years.

Well, I've just finished a week of preparing some long overdue changes to the links in my right sidebar, and am ready to move forward with more coverage of the 2 most dangerous threat to the future of not just America, but the world:

Illegal Immigration, and Radical Islam.

I've been doing a lot of reading, and will be doing more, and plan to tell you the names of all the books, and encourage you to read them as well.

Americans need to get their heads out of their Asses, and pay attention, or risk losing everything that is their culture, and their country.

Oh, and let me address the Liberal Asshats, Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. ( World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ), and members of H.U.Y.A.M. ( Head Up Your Ass Media )....

After something of a quiet year, as far as reports are concerned, FWAP!!  ( The Fighting W.a.c.k.i.e. All-over Project ) is gearing up for the next 2 years that will be the 2008 Election Season, and your attempts to brand me as a Racist, and a Hatemonger will only show how ignorant, and hateful YOU, and your Comrades, are, and how deeply entrenched you are in the bowels of the wrong side of these vital issues.

Comments, and E-mail are, as always, welcome, but beware, the Bouncer ( That's him in the left sidebar. ) will be strictly enforcing decorum. ;-D

CAIR Loses all Perspective Over Airplane Incident

This story is beyond idiotic.

If CAIR thinks passengers/crew will just sit in their seats, meekly, and watch a group of strange Muslim men stand in the aisle, or at their seats, and chant their prayers on an airliner after 9/11 they're dumber than dumb.

Read Press Release from The Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Why didn't these Imams take a different flight if prayers needed to be said at a given time?

Didn't it occur to them that it would be more prudent, not to mention extremely good Common Sense, to do this in a Mosque, or their hotel rooms?

The problem isn't American ignorance of Islam, it's that lslamoterroists have been hijacking planes and killing passengers for the last 30 years.

Just how much do they expect us to swallow in the name of tolerance?

CAIR, and other apologists, can shove their complaint where the sun don't shine, and assimilate to OUR culture and customs, or get the fuck out!

Of course I fully expect that The Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E.  will be weeping and rending their garments over intolerance towards the religion of peace.

Cry me a river, and just shut the hell up already!

As Atlas Shrugs writes... Boo-freakin-hoo, we are at war. You are either with us or against us.

STOP THE ACLU has a nice round-up of opinion on the subject.

The results of the recent US Elections, added to some books I have, am, and will be, reading, has focused my mind on what is important for the future of America, and Western Civilization.

I've written about the issues of The War Against Terror ( T.W.A.T. for you folks in Rio Linda! ), and Illegal Immigration, off and on, for years, and think my right sidebar is due for a major overhaul to reflect the importance I think all Americans should give these issues as we head toward the Presidential Election of 2008.

Stay tuned!

Ted Turner Spews More Idiocy

The latest proof that Ted Turner is a Minion of W.A.C.K.I.E.:

TED TURNER: There are a lot of things about this war that disturb me and one of them is the attitude, that you know, that was well expressed by our President. He said it very clearly, he said either you’re with us or you’re against us. And I had a problem with that because I really hadn’t made my mind up yet. You know, what if you haven’t made your mind up? You know, what if you’re thinking about it, doing some studying, doing some reading because it’s an important decision to go to war or whether or not to go to war. I mean, you’re either with us or you’re against us, that’s pretty black and white.

Forget for a moment, that, for any sensible American, being for The War Against Terror is a no-brainer, Ol' Ted distorts just who the Prez's words were actually aimed at.

Ol' Ted has had other idiotic opinions spew from his lips recently, and you can learn about them, and see the video of the above, over at Stop the ACLU.

Speculating on the Death of a Living President

A REPORT OF THE Fighting W.A.C.K.I.E. All Over Project ( FWAP!! ):

The Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. ( World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ) are at it again, this time in Great Britain ( Aren't you so glad we kicked their arse 223 years ago, and went our seperate ways? )...

This is the dramatic moment when President George Bush is gunned down by a sniper after a public address at a hotel, in a gripping new docudrama soon to be aired on TV.

Set around October 2007, President Bush is assassinated as he leaves the Sheraton Hotel in Chicago.

Death of a President, shot in the style of a retrospective documentary, looks at the effect the assassination of Bush has on America in light of its ‘War on Terror’.

The 90 minutes feature explores who could have planned the murder, with a Syrian-born man wrongly put in the frame.

Peter Dale, head of More4, which is due to air the film on October 9, said the drama was a “thought-provoking critique” of contemporary US society.

He said: “It’s an extraordinarily gripping and powerful piece of work, a drama constructed like a documentary that looks back at the assassination of George Bush as the starting point for a very gripping detective story.

“It’s a pointed political examination of what the War on Terror did to the American body politic.

THIS IS LONDON = President Bush 'assassinated' in new TV docudrama.

What do I think of this shocking idea for a TV program?

I'm glad you asked! ;-D

Where's George?

Who is he?

What is he?

Is he a figment of someone' feverish, Bush hating, imagination?

Exposing the Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. ( World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ) is the current pre-occupation of Eric, of Classical Values, who is fascinated by these questions, and what he has found out, or maybe that should be "NOT found", makes for a great ongoing mystery.

The questions revolve around trying to turn up a retired political science professor who worked in the Nixon and Reagan administrations, and is being quoted all over the Far Left Blogosphere, and other Far Left sites.

Can't find him in any account of Nixon or Reagan anywhere.

After wasting an hour, I'm stumped.

There has to be an easy explanation. Surely this George Harleigh is a famous man, and I'm missing something....

What troubles me is that these stories are widely linked and repeated, but only by leftists. Neither the MSM nor the right wing seem to pay much attention.

Does that mean that it doesn't matter whether the reports exist? Or that it doesn't matter whether they're true?

Absolutely Fascinating.

Head up Your Ass Media

Today is a great day for freedom. I think it's entirely fitting that I have chosen this day to announce the biggest event in the New Media's short history. Today is the long awaited launch day for Head Up Yer Ass Media ( H.U.Y.A.M. )

What is Head Up Yer Ass Media, you ask?

Head Up Yer Ass Media is the brainchild of blogger Kiril, The Mad Macedonian, of Sneakeasy's Joint. That's me. I have a peculiar sense of humor, and I'm a Conservative, so sue me.

It is an effort of the soon to be 3 yr. old Fighting W.a.c.k.i.e. All-over Project ( FWAP!! ).

As the 1st post of the project, in Sept. 2003 explained:

I, The Mad Macedonian, secure in my Branch Maceyugoserbulgarigreekadonian Compound, has decided to ally myself with The Emperor in the ongoing battle to expose the minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ( better known as W.A.C.K.I.E. ).

Here's what Head Up Yer Ass Media is all about:

Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. found at Atlanta Newspaper

Editorial Cartoonist Mike Luckovich and, by virtue of their running this utterly despicable cartoon, the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation, are utterly contemptable.

Just another example of the minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ( better known as W.A.C.K.I.E. ).

They have lost all right to call themselves objective journalists with this obscene, despicable, and anti- American piece of bullshit.

And people all across America ARE letting them, and any paper that published this crap in syndication, know what they think.

Accompanying the cartoon is an opportunity for viewers to express their opinion in 2 ways.

The 1st is by Voting:

Do You like this cartoon, Yes, or No?

As of this posting ( 145am ) the vote is as follows...

YES = 1652 ( 10.37% )

NO = 14,274 ( 89.63% )

The 2nd way is to leave a comment:

So far 556 comments have been left.

Needless to say the Moonbats are getting their collective Asses kicked here as well.

'Tis Glorious to behold! ;-D

***UPDATE - 6/25***

2 days after outrage swamped the paper the artist issued a non-apology in an attempt at a defense.

By the way the original title for the cartoon was “Pot meet Kettle”, but overnight it was changed to “Book of Torture”.

If there is nothing WRONG with his depiction, why did he change the title of the cartoon?

***END UPDATE***

Is A Beef Wellington School Lunch Harmful to 2nd Graders?

A Dedicated, and caring, Mother encounters a Minion of W.A.C.K.I.E. when the contents of the lunch she fixed for her young sons school lunch come into question by someone with a sad lack of knowledge concerning gourmet food.

Me: Hello?

Teacher: Yes, Miss NotDeskmerc?  I'm calling because we're concerned about Sprog's lunch.

Me:  Oh?  Is he not eating it?

Teacher:  No, he ate it... but he's telling the other kids that he's got wine in his lunch.  I looked through his box and I couldn't find anything, but he said that you told him that there was wine in his lunch.

Me:  *chuckles*  Oh, I see.  I packed him smoked sausage in a port wine reduction sauce.  That's what he's talking about.

Teacher: Um... you are aware that alcoholic beverages are prohibited, aren't you?

Me:  There's no alcohol in it.  When you reduce the sauce, it cooks off all the alcoholic content.

Teacher:   Why would you put wine in his lunch?

This story is as hysterical as it is sad, and disturbing.

Read the rest of the tale here: Lunchbox Politics.

What does JR. think about the situation?

I spoke to Sprog about this, and his response was: "... *snort*... that's stupid...I like your food, Mom."

Bright kid! He's gonna be President someday so remember you read it here 1st! ;-D

I hope she goes to the school and makes sure her son won't be harmed by proposed "Counseling".

Channelling my Inner Hippie Protester

When the HONOR of the United States Armed Forces is under attack, in a time of war, what is a man to do?

I know I don't have enough hair left to qualify, but I'm going to be joining a pack of San Diegans, and other fellow travellers, on Saturday who will be all, peacefully, channeling their Inner Hippies while across the street a large, loud, and misguided crowd, of the Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E., will be trashing America, and its Military, and cheering on Extremists, and Terrorists, and other charming people.

( Back when I began to come to my senses, and was starting my journey toward Conservatism, I defined just who these folks were, and the name of their worldwde organization, here .)

What's got me all riled up, and who are the Anti-America Protesters?

What is the organization which has, for many times previously, been there in San Diego to counter the MoonBats?

A post by Lt. Smash, my fellow in the California Bear Flag League, over at Indepundit, has some pictures, and Audio, of interest, and the skinny on the event, and who is there to counter the Left:

This Saturday, March 18, the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice will hold another 'peace festival' in Balboa Park, marking the third anniversary of the liberation of Iraq.

They will not be alone.

OPERATION PROUD BANNER:

WHO: Anyone who supports our country, our military, and their mission (sponsored by San Diego Protest Warrior).

WHAT: A peaceful demonstration of support and gratitude for our armed forces.

Learn more here.

By the way: What those poor misguided souls DON'T know, yet anyway, is that there is  growing unrest within the Democratic rank and file that could make the 2006, and 2008, Elections a disaster for the Left.

Save Piglet 2

Hey, rioting Muslims, did I enjoy the Danish cartoon series? You bet your sweet bacon I did!

FREE PIGLET!

Last October I reported on the latest doings of the British Wing of The Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. as they picked on Winnie the Pooh's little friend Piglet.

Freedom ( and Pig, and Pork Chop ) Lovers everywhere are taking up the call to FREE PIGLET!

An October story,  on The Lost Budgie, with numerous updates, tells you some more about the controversy, and other British idiocy, and the many comments, from Muslim, and non-Muslim, makes for fascinating reading.

I agree with a comment sent to me this morning as the Danish Cartoon Flap swirls around us:

Islamists ( Muslim Fanatics who want to wipe Democratic peoples off the face of the Earth, and turn the planet into an Islamofascist Theocracy ) object to piggy banks and a character in a children's story?  There's something sick about that. 

The Great American Cure for this disease: Eat more pork chops and drink Danish beer!

Cindy Sheehan makes Ass of herself at Bush Speech

Confirming, yet again, her status as a Minion of W.A.C.K.I.E. (  World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere )  Anti-War, Anti-Bush, willing tool of the Radical Left, Protester Cindy Sheehan used the last minute gift of a seat at the State of the Union Speech to try to make a Political Statement.

And this woman thinks her antics make her worthy of running for public office?

All this attempted stunt got her was arrested for commiting a Misdemeaner.

Sheehan had worn a T-shirt with an antiwar slogan to the speech and covered it up until she took her seat. Police warned her that such displays were not allowed, but she did not respond.

She was removed before President Bush arrived.

I Smell a Minion of W.A.C.K.I.E.

Who nose what evil lurks in the minds of the Bush Clan, and in the Bowels of the White House?

Minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ( W.AC.K.I.E. for short ) DO!

Some of them claim to, anyway, and even go out of their way to tell their enemies that they are on to them ( us, me, U, everyone to the right of Fidel Castro, and that nutjob in North Korea? )

An e-mail has been recieved by John Hawkins, of Right Wing News, that must be read to be believed.

Someone has obviously had 1 too many sips of the Cool-Aid ( 150 Proof Cherry Flavored, add sugar to taste ).

Has anyone noticed the use by George W. Bush and Jeb Bush and the republican party of nasal control implants in children as their family continues to re-entrench itself from World War II where it used the control technology on the German population running the yes sir Nathan Hales of the Hitler youth.

I haven't heard from the Minions, enmasse,  since my Fiery Essay in the response to the beheading of Nick Berg in early 2004 ( Nikita, the Bouncer, even had to flex his muscles in monitoring the hundreds of comments I received ), and never get an e-mail heads up to conspiracies I should be aware of as a Concerned Citizen.

Hmmph! I am SOOO jealous!

( NOT!  What? You think I want my inbox flooded with this stuff? Hee, hee )

Read the whole thing: I get Letters: The Republican Nasal Control Implanting Agenda.

Oh, and....

Don't forget to BLOW YOUR NOSE!!! ;-D

Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. analyzed and explained

One particularly virulent Cell of minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere ( W.AC.K.I.E. for short ) has been in desperate need of analysis, and explanation, for quite some time, and who best to do so than the highly respected Psychiatrist, and Blogger, Dr. Sanity?

The Doc offers up an aboslutely brilliant essay on those poor, desperate, souls who, since the 2000 Election Campaign, have suffered most horribly, and painfully, from BUSH DERAINGEMENT SYNDROME.

The opportunist agenda of the Leftist/Socialist/Communist remnants of the last century has slowly been thwarted in the last 20 years of the 20th century, and the 1st 5 of this one, and  this state of affairs has gained momentum as more Conservatives gained power in this country.

The Left is pissed to say the least.

This  Syndrome is actually, I believe, a strain of Reagan/Bush Deraingement Syndrome, and I look forward to someone doing a study on the connection, and how the disease mutated in the 1990's. ;-D

Anyway here are 2 snippets of this long, MUST READ, essay:

The psychology of some of the Bush Haters is pretty cut and dried. They hate Bush because he stands between them and the implementation of their collectivist "utopian" vision. I have no time to waste on them, except to note that their intentions are deliberately and decidedly malevolent toward this country. They want it to fail at anything and everything it does and they openly cheer for the barbarians at the gate.

They are indistinguishable from the barbarians we are actively fighting, with the only difference being that they have different ideas about which group of thugs will be in charge of the "utopia". They prefer themselves--a more secularly-oriented set of thugs--to rule.

But what about the average person on the street who has, or has come to have a visceral hatred of President Bush? Perhaps they simply didn't vote for him in 2000, believing the media propaganda or caricature of his intellect and capabilities; or perhaps they simply didn't like him because he was from the opposition party, or a Texan. or any other number of normal reasons.

It seems to me that the Democrats and the Left have used their continuous propaganda well, but there is a also a strong personal psychological factor involved in being able to convince normally sane people that the source of all evil in the world is George W. Bush....

....those who are mindful and deliberate in their attacks and are using them for personal political gain; or to advance a totalitarian agenda are simply evil. But there are many people who normally have some degreee of goodwill and sense. Those are the people I am trying to wake up. Think and ask yourselves-- what you are doing? Look around at what is going on in the world.

Read the whole thing, including the links, and comments.

A Tip of the Hat to Instapundit.

Save Piglet!

The Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. are on the prowl in Great Britain:

NOVELTY pig calendars and toys have been banned from a council office -- in case they offend Muslim staff.

Workers in the benefits department at Dudley Council, West Midlands, were told to remove or cover up all pig-related items, including toys, porcelain figures, calendars and even a tissue box featuring Winnie the Pooh and Piglet.

In reporting on this story, Cox and Forkum provide an absolutely PRICELESS cartoon that will have you laughing until the tears come. ;-D

Perils before Swine.

Poor Piglet!

The whole truth and nothing but

Want proof that the Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. were running the show at last weekends "Anti-War" Protests across the country?

AND that they have infiltrated the Mainstream Media?

Tracing a single photograph, and scene, from its tightly cropped version, used by the San Francisco Chronicle, to bamboozle its readers, to it's original, wide-shot view is a perfect example of how pictures can say more than a thousand words.

As the photographer behind this expose writes:

The San Francisco Chronicle featured the original photograph on its front page in order to convey a positive message about the rally -- perhaps that even politically aware teenagers were inspired to show up and rally for peace, sporting the message, "People of Color say 'No to War!'" And that served the Chronicle's agenda.

But this simple analysis reveals the very subtle but insidious type of bias that occurs in the media all the time. The Chronicle did not print an inaccuracy, nor did it doctor a photograph to misrepresent the facts. Instead, the Chronicle committed the sin of omission: it told you the truth, but it didn't tell you the whole truth.

Because the whole truth -- that the girl was part of a group of naive teenagers recruited by Communist activists to wear terrorist-style bandannas and carry Palestinian flags and obscene placards -- is disturbing, and doesn't conform to the narrative that the Chronicle is trying to promote. By presenting the photo out of context, and only showing the one image that suits its purpose, the Chronicle is intentionally manipulating the reader's impression of the rally, and the rally's intent.

These tactics -- at the crossroads where ethical and unethical  meet-- are common in the Mainstream Media, and have been since the invention of the camera.

Thanks to the advent of citizen journalism, we now can at last begin to see how the public has been manipulated like this in the past, and will be in the future, unless the manipulators are exposed.

A photographic look at the San Franciso Rally.

All hail Zombie! ;-D

And a hat tip to Instapundit!

Fighting W.A.C.K.I.E: Answering, and Exposing Anti-American Minions

The minions of the World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere, better known as W.A.C.K.I.E., were out in force this past weekend, and Liberals everywhere were hoodwinkied, yet again into thinking they were a sensible lot, with no hidden agenda, and so joined them on the march.

But plenty of people with the knowledge to share, and where to find it, and some with cameras ( Hit refresh, if needed, to view article ), the better to visually expose the enemy to the world, were out in full force.

Saturday's demonstration in Washington, in favor of immediate withdrawal of coalition forces from Iraq, was the product of an opportunistic alliance between two other very disparate "coalitions." Here is how the New York Times (after a front-page and an inside headline, one of them reading "Speaking Up Against War" and one of them reading "Antiwar Rallies Staged in Washington and Other Cities" described the two constituencies of the event:

The protests were largely sponsored by two groups, the Answer Coalition, which embodies a wide range of progressive political objectives, and United for Peace and Justice, which has a more narrow, antiwar focus.

The name of the reporter on this story was Michael Janofsky. I suppose that it is possible that he has never before come across "International ANSWER," the group run by the "Worker's World" party and fronted by Ramsey Clark, which openly supports Kim Jong-il, Fidel Castro, Slobodan Milosevic, and the "resistance" in Afghanistan and Iraq, with Clark himself finding extra time to volunteer as attorney for the génocidaires in Rwanda. Quite a "wide range of progressive political objectives" indeed, if that's the sort of thing you like. However, a dip into any database could have furnished Janofsky with well-researched and well-written articles by David Corn and Marc Cooper—to mention only two radical left journalists—who have exposed "International ANSWER" as a front for (depending on the day of the week) fascism, Stalinism, and jihadism.

Christopher Hitchens used to be a far-left comrade of Corn, and Cooper, at The Nation, but I always judged him as being more moderate than them, and in recent years he's come even more to his senses. ;-D

Can you copyright a word?

The Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E. are at it again, and it's neccessary for me, after letting them alone for over a year, to expose yet another of their ranks:

Someday someone will come along and create a Blog called On the Sea With Sneakeasy.

Someday someone will come along and create a Blog called The Bicycling Dude.

Should I get my Jock Strap in a Bunch over these developements?

No, absolutely not.

1 Blog is about the brand of boat called a Sneakeasy, and the other, while having a similar name, would be very different from my own Cycling Dude.

There is nothing I can, or should, do if someone uses a word ( Sneakeasy, Dude ) that I have used for years in the title of my own 2 Blogs,, and as my online identity, in the title of their new born site.

While name recognition is important it is your content that keeps people coming back day after day, week after week, and solidifies your reputation in the Bloggerverse.

I learned yesterday that there is a very disturbed someone out there who doesn't understand this, and is pestering a very good Blogger, and friend of mine.

W.A.C.K.I.E. Minions: The Photos

FINALLY!

Visual evidence of those Idiotarians of W.A.C.K.I.E.

For those who STILL have their doubts, it is time, at long last, to set them aside.

The World Allied Conspiratorial Kongress of Idiotarians Everywhere IS out there, and EVERYWHERE!

And they VOTE!

Just ask the former Leader of Spain.

Taking Troubletown to Task

The OC Weekly is an unabashedly Left leaning magazine that covers the strange goings on in Orange county california, and the nation at large, as well.

It has several fine, amusing cartoonstrips that it runs in every issue.

While Tom Tomorrow is present there are others vastly more entertaining, though I may often disagree with the points they make.

One such cartoon is by Lloyd Dangle, and is known as Troubletown.

The Thanksgiving Edition, while amusing, pissed me off even while I laughed.

Emperor Misha Welcomes New Ally

The Official Press Release can be read here: From the Imperial Dept. of Overdue Bloglinkagery.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Misha, and welcome the Emperor's followers to the Branch Maceyugoserbulgarigreekadonian Compound, bettern known as Sneakeasy's Joint.

For an idea of what I am about, just read the intro at the top of the page, and venture in to my archives. :-)

Take a stiff drink to bolster your courage if ya have to. :-)

I've been around for a year and a half, and have commented on my share of Idiotarians, though I didn't know the name for them at the time.

As my earlier declaration stated, my idea of a minion of W.A.C.K.I.E. may not be the same as someone else's, but hey, said minions can be found hiding under many different rocks. :-)

Right now it seems to me that many of the Ca. Democratic Party, and assorted facilitators of their attacks on Arnold are bucking for identification as idio... naah that would be too easy, and too ordinary. :-)

And I don't have the time or resources to explore this possibility in the fashion it deserves, anyway. :-)

Fighting the Minions of W.A.C.K.I.E.

What is an IDIOT? What is IDIOCY? How can one tell? Who is fighting the war agaisnt them?

Good questions!

I'm glad I asked! :-)

Merriam-Websters has 2 answers:

IDIOT: A foolish or stupid person.

IDIOCY: Something notably stupid or foolish.

On IDIOTARIAN, IDIOTARIANS, and IDIOTARIANISM the compilers, and guardians of our beautiful and expanding language are sadly silent.

The snobbish nitpickers! Who annointed them to decide what constitutes a legitimate word in the english language?

Who in the hell do they think they are?

The freakin' French, for cryin' out loud??

My God! The Inhumanity!

Ah well, those are only "Official" definitions, anyway.

For most ordinary folks, like you and me, our definition is more along the lines of the following:

"I can't put my finger on it, young feller, but I'll know it when I see it, by cracky!!"

You see, we all have an inbred Idiotarian Spotting Radar, but most of us are unaware of it, how to use it, or of its usefullness.

Being an idiot, or a practitioner of idiocy is NOT reserved for folks of one city, one county, one state, one nation, one ethnicity, one party, or one government.

The minions of Idiotarianism are Legion, and until now only one group of valiant souls were openly fighting the good fight!

Emperor Misha I and his loyal subjects of the Rottweiler Empire.

The The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler has led the fight to expose the the threat of Idiotarianism of all stripes, with an admitted focus on my fellow Liberals.
