I am so glad I live in a country where I can speak the truth out loud:

Bush is a moron who really ought to be changing motor oil for a living.

But remember, we can't take a principled stand against this sort of thing because China is a valuable trading partner.

This story is why I check out your page daily. The above comment by koreyel is why I sometimes regret it.

koreyel, do you really want w changing the oil in your car?

I was recently talking to a friend about another friend and then we both ran into the third friend as we walked around a corner where we wouldn't have expected to see him at all.

And it was Jesus!

That was almost the best false Trosz ever, except you forgot to add a fallacious link.

Kudos

Oh and Chuckles, if your comment was serious, you need to get out more, Bubba.

Yes...things are getting so much better in China, it realy shows our policy of carrots and sticks is bearing fruit.

For you right wing nut cases:

What country downed an American Aircraft in international airspace and made the US apologize before returning the downed airman?

What political party was in power when this happened?

And finally, which one of you Republicans reading this would like to lick your corporate masters boots?

That was tbrosz impersonating a false tbrosz just to see what we'd do. He thinks he's toying with us.

No, that really was the fake tbrosz, the real fake tbrosz, impersonating the false fake tbrosz to see what the real tbrosz thinks we'll do.

In fact, he's toying with himself.

Excuse me while I go and check who I'm not.

Nah, if I really wanted to mess with you, I'd come into my office some morning when I didn't have anything better to do, bring a lunch, and start impersonating all of you. Unfortunately, so far, I've had something better to do.

It's amazing how many people still fall for the fake, though, on other threads.

What, and have a conversation in your own head?

Would this be something you do often?

;)

This might say something about the quality of your genuine posts, you know...

I thought lefties cared about free speech.

Reading the comments in this post, I was reminded the only thing American lefties care about is bashing GW Bush.

What, and have a conversation in your own head?

Hey, I'm not the one having debates with myself on these boards with the various fakes. I suppose it is, however, a time-honored technique, going at least as far back as Plato's "Republic."

Hey, check this out. I work with one of these outfits. An outfit I don't work for is going for a launch in the next couple of days.

This is a disturbing development for Hao Wu and his family.

Let's see now: politically correct speech, once upon a time, meant not saying anything against feminism, against gays, against ethnic groups, agaisnt environmetlism...and now , PC speech means avoiding saying anything but good about the War in Iraq, the War on Terror, the whole concept of Republicanism.
I'm not so sure that our free speech is much different than theirs.......we have free speech, but oh by the way, no one is forced to hire you if you take you r freedom and say something against the status quo.....be it left or right...but..at least we dont' go to jail, w jsut end up homeless...much better here in the free US of A (left and right both being the problem.......the concept of liberty having been lost over the years)

News brief mass shortage of sheep in southern states,President calls out the National Guard after four Governors confess!

Reading the comments in this post, I was reminded the only thing American lefties care about is bashing GW Bush.

Yeah - they also like bashing people like you too, MountainDan.

It would be nice if it were more of a challenge, though.

News brief mass shortage of sheep in southern states,President calls out the National Guard after four Governors confess! Due to Homeland sercurity these could pose a threat,President replies will getem on the next washout!

Leftists who bash are no different than Rightists you bash..you all belong in the same trash bin of history....the only people who matter are those who are willing to go against their own best interest in order to further the goals of their cause, be it right, left or centrist. I have yet to see anyone on here do that...Tbrosz, Kevin, or any of you. If you' aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem. but I bet no one who is a partisan can see that truism

BTW, thanks, Kevin, for pointing this case out.

ROCKET LIMERICKS

There was a technician named Crockett
Who had an affair with a rocket
If you saw him up there
You'd be tempted to stare
But if you've not tried it, don't knock it!

There was a young fellow named Urban
Who had an affair with a turbine
It's much nicer he said
Than a woman in bed
And it's sure as hell cheaper than bourbon

There was a technician named Yuri
Fucked the nozzle right up its venturi
He had woes without cease
From the local police
And a helluva time with the jury

There was a technician named Pope
Who plugged in to an ocilloScope
The cyclical trace
Of their carnal embrace
Had a damn nearly infinite slope

There was a young man named McGuire
Who was fond of the pitch amplifier
A number of shorts
Left him covered with warts
And set half the bedroom on fire

There was a technician named Moorehead
Who had an affair with a warhead
His wife moved away
The very next day
She *was* always kind of a sorehead

A strapping young nerd name of Hector
Was quite fond of the launcher-erector
The squishes and pops
Of acute pressure drops
Wrecked Hector's hydraulic connector

There was a technician named Schroeder
Who buggered the vane servomotor
He soon grew a prong
On the end of his schlong
So he hired himself a promoter

A brilliant old geek name of Slattery
Fell in love with the course gyro battery
But that fifty-volt shock
What was left of his cock
Was all slipp'ry and slimy and spattery

There was a technician named Slater
Who slept with the LOX generator
His balls and his prick
Froze solid real quick
And his asshole a little bit later

--Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow" (1973)

Apologies Herr Doppelganger, I thought this post was about clairvoyance. Best of luck getting one of those big governement grants to blast clean laundry into orbit.

Yes yes, nice poem but WHERE'S THE LINK!? I don't mean no stinkin' citation!

Mountain Dan:

Hey, Kevin posted it, didn't he?

Hey, I'm not the one having debates with myself on these boards with the various fakes. I suppose it is, however, a time-honored technique, going at least as far back as Plato's "Republic."

Well, yeah, that's true.

The fake Me doesn't agree, however.

Hey now ...

We're all tbrosz now. Maybe this is just a lowpoint and not the beginning of the end of Calpundit comments.

Ok whatever......

Man, I wish I HAD posted those limericks. I'll be passing those around.

We're all tbrosz now.

And you thought it was Diebold that wins elections? It was my MIND CONTROL POWER. Goes through the thickest tinfoil hat like a neutrino through cheese.

Resistance is futile!

You know I've dealt with liberals all my life. Some of them are great people, honestly. Hell, you can't swing a dead marmot in this neck of the woods without knocking twenty of them over, frail aging baby boomers that they are. My neighbors, anyway. Gahh, nothing so sad than a fiftysomething woman who wears Birkenstocks and doesn't shave her legs. Who's she trying to kid? At this age, you'd figure the would have learned something. You know, a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged.

Well these damned aging hippies haven't been mugged yet. Not by life, cosmetics, or a proper sense of mature fatalism. Heh, maybe it's time. And what's with these grey-haired balding guys with ponytails? You'd think none of these people had mirrors in their homes. Heh, maybe having a mirror violates some animist taboo they just learned about, you know -- like Muslims believing that taking a photograph captures their souls -- on their last vacation to Venezuela to give that dictator Chavez a nice, enthusiastic peace sign. You'd think they know that the peace sign is also Nixon's V for Victory.

Liberals, sheesh, I tell ya ...

Instapundit has an idea for enlisting the Great Satan of the Unions in the cause.

Wal-Mart: "Better do as we say or we go back to using Oompa-Loompas again."

tbrosz:

Read the novel.

A large part of it's about the German V2 rocket program. Pynchon uses historical sources, like General Dornberger's account and the British book The Mare's Nest.

Amazing historical verisimilitude. Von Braun makes a cameo appearance.

Of course, you might find Pynchon's political sensibilities a little, umm, different ... but he's one of the best writers in English alive.

HAO WU: I don’t want to live in a society that doesn’t allow me to express myself freely! But wait, would that land me in prison?

Indeed, it's not clear what Wu hopes to accomplish with his free speech stand. China's shortcomings are already getting plenty of attention, so he's not galvanizing any new media attention. He obviously didn't bother telling his fellow citizens about his plan, which has had the result of making the public look muddled and stupid. And Communists, far from being nonplused by his free speech stand, are having a field day with it.

Political theater has its own rules, and fair or not, the only measure of success is success. So while I admire Wu's stand, I don't think I'd hire him as a political theater consultant.*

For any feeling personal outrage, there are venues through Amnesty International and other organizations to make a personal appeal.

Prisoners of Conscience

Sign up, and write a letter!

There once was a thing called a V-2
To pilot, you did not need to
You just pushed a button
And it would leave nuttin'
But stiff and big holes and debris, too

stiff = stiffs

tbrosz, "if I really wanted to mess with you, I'd come into my office some morning when I didn't have anything better to do, bring a lunch, and start impersonating all of you. . . .It was my MIND CONTROL POWER."

So close to the truth, but blinkered still with the egomania that drove us all away. We need to say without him hearing, even though, we know, he'll never know, however much he hears, we're all just doing our small part in tbrosz's multiple personality disorder, so what difference can it make? I'd never leave a note to clue him in about it.
