Obama Team Tilts Toward Gates

Another sign that Obama may be close to retaining Gates has been the lack of chatter from transition officials about alternative candidates

Robert Gates; bad as Rumsfeld?,
The Danger of Keeping Robert Gates

Obviously there are no plans to hold torturers accountable and no plans to tell the truth about what happened.

Any serious accountability will have to come from abroad; and I predict it will. It will be very humiliating for the US to have this forced upon us by other countries, but Obama is more interested in being President of Versailles as opposed to President of the United States of America.

Notice all the outcry from the blogger boiz? Neither did I.

The Better Bloggers are scrutinizing us to ensure

That we say enough nice things about Obama.

So, I must say it's real good that Gates shamelessly catapulted the propaganda about Iran. It's real good!

I forgot to ask

Don't the "better bloggers" expose their site rankings?

It's not about page views

It's about being a good citizen of the crypto-MSM.

Any page that doesn't harsh the mellow is a good page.

If we say enough nice things...

... do we get a pony?

The good news is: yes

The bad news is: it will be delivered Godfather-style.

VL, You're Killing Me!

In a good way. That post had me literally laughing out loud, and I needed that.

But, we've always been at war with Eastasia...

Ron Paul was right

We can't afford the empire.

(And yes, all the Democratic candidates, including the President-elect, were and are wrong.)

Ron Paul? Pfff, Sun Tzu

Said similar things centuries ago. I reread it early this year (actually, listened to it via public library audio book) and it was surprising to see how many things Tzu said not to do that we are actually doing.

i don't want to be Better. i want to be

more Fluffy. and with raisins.

it is depressing to realize, reading this post, that ~50% of my family members who've changed or gotten new jobs in the last few years, have gotten them in MIC/prisonIC related industries. that's where the growth is, people. perhaps i should take this Dom thing i've got going on, and become a Pro. i'm a nice torturer and only do it on the willing.
