A Proud Day for Versailles

A weak President, or one who has a current of sympathy for the aims of tyrants? I says that, no matter how Obama may be with weakness, he definitely exudes [and has for many years] powerful currents of sympathy for any anti-american strong horsie. Not that he would bow to them, of course.
Or maybe he's just likes that Ol' Timey fun.

Pepe's Minister for Moral Reconstruction

Put on those red bands if you want Hope for a Change. Quality Ethics, courtesy of Planet Pepe.

"Gregory B. Craig, a well-known Washington lawyer who quarterbacked President Bill Clinton’s impeachment defense, has been chosen White House counsel by President-elect Barack Obama, according to Democratic officials.
The choice gives the president-elect both experience and loyalty. During the primaries, Craig was an early Clinton alumni defector to Obama. Columnist Robert D. Novak reported back in the winter of 2007 that Craig had told him he “was impressed with Obama when he first met him at the home of investment banker Vernon Jordan, an intimate friend and supporter of the Clintons.”
Craig was an Obama foreign policy adviser during the campaign. At the start of the Clinton administration, he had been the State Department’s Director of Policy Planning, the head of State’s in-house think tank. He also was senior adviser on defense, foreign policy and national security to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.).
Besides defending Clinton through the impeachment process, an effort that Craig lost, who else had the benefit of Craig’s counsel?
Elian Gonzalez’s father - Craig represented the father who demanded the return of his son after his estranged wife died trying to take Elian to freedom. Most people saw this as a thinly-veiled publicity stunt from Fidel Castro, attempting to embarrass the US. The dispute got resolved when Janet Reno ordered an armed assault on the house where Elian’s family in the US provided him a home.
John Hinckley, Jr - Craig presented and won the insanity defense that allows Ronald Reagan’s would-be assassin to spend weekends with his family now.
Kofi Annan - The former Secretary-General of the UN hired Craig to defend his interests in the Volcker Commission probe of the Oil-for-Food scandal, which put billions of dollars into Saddam Hussein’s pockets while providing cash for Annan’s son, his deputies, and some allege Annan himself.
Pedro Gonzalez Pinzon - A Panamanian legislator wanted for murdering an American soldier in 1992.

The One Way Cave of Moral Blindness

"But Jonathan Haidt, an associate professor of moral psychology at the University of Virginia, argues in an essay this month, “What Makes People Vote Republican?”, that it’s liberals, in fact, who are dangerously blind.

Haidt has conducted research in which liberals and conservatives were asked to project themselves into the minds of their opponents and answer questions about their moral reasoning. Conservatives, he said, prove quite adept at thinking like liberals, but liberals are consistently incapable of understanding the conservative point of view. “Liberals feel contempt for the conservative moral view, and that is very, very angering. Republicans are good at exploiting that anger,” he told me in a phone interview.

Perhaps that’s why the conservatives can so successfully get under liberals’ skin. And why liberals need to start working harder."

Pepe will have a conniption fit

US now winning Iraq war that seemed lost: Easy, Pepe, easy. Take some smelling salts.

Bring it on

How to look at the same story as Pepe brought up a few days ago, but from the opposite angle.

Deuce vs KSM

Planet Pepe knows immediately who are the good guys and the bad guys in this story. Also, Martinez asked that he not be named in this article, saying that the former interrogator believed that the use of his name would invade his privacy and might jeopardize his safety. The New York Times declined the request. The Gray Old Putana is a bitch.

Versailles SHOULD be Very Ashamed

Yes, in the Salons they are so very ashamed of Brigitte. They once thought she was a proper royal courtesan, and now she speaks like some commoner who believes her stinking eyes over Vichy writ.

If ""destroying our country and imposing its acts" isn't a thought crime deserving the Bastille, what are the brilliant Green&Red minarets of Future Notre Dame for?

Jumping on a grenade

Not the sort of thing one normally does -- or live to talk about. This guy has balls.

There still are girls from Texas doing something else besides fiddling with their dildoes.

Going after AQI

The Predator was lazing the target, invisibly marking the group of six men. Boise launched the Hellfire…VROOOSSHHHH!!!!! Shaking the little helicopter, the missile-motor temporarily blinded the night vision goggles, filling the cockpit with light. From up close, the launch appeared white, but from a distance the launch was orange and illuminated the Kiowa and the ground below as the Hellfire sparked away. [..] It was dark for the terrorist as the little helicopter orbited him and Lopez rained bullets down, but the terrorist was still bathed in bright IR light when Lopez jacked in another magazine and finally shot the guy to death. Powww!

Aid and comfort still means something

.. pace JJ.

Patton is baaack!
