Fristlosi!!!

OT-

What explains the delay/failure of the mainstream media to cover the purge scandal for so long, and so many other scandals? Do you think somebody just set up newspaper editors to cheat on their wives, and threatened to tell if the editors wouldn’t play ball when they come back some day and ask for something?

It wouldn’t be that hard to do, when you think about it. People wouldn’t talk about it.

Oh, man, does that bring back memories. Wasn't Kevin still in his loafers when that first made the rounds?

Wow, hadn't read that one before. Then when I clicked to see whether the apoplexy had already claimed him, or if there was a more recent entry from this guy, the first thing I read was this: "It says something for the pain of gout when unending diarrhea is the preferable option." I guess karma isn't for pussies, either.

Fuck karma

Check out the ad "betoniraq.com." You too can make a fortune speculating on the dinar. I hope all of the Bush Pioneers (the real men) are making this play.

For the record, Jack Bauer has never been particularly pro-war.

He worked hard to prevent a similarly imminent war by the U.S. in Season 2 as well, if I recall.

That blog entry is best read when you have the "Now You're a Man" song from Orgazmo playing in the background.

In this clown's "Manly" essay, he writes of Belushi's line from Animal House.

I believe this essay is more in line with Belushi's SNL protrayal of a ship's captain - Guest was one of the Pythons, Eric Idle perhaps, and Belushi led the "disciplining of Manly Men by a crew of Manly Men" - Ah, the bare backs and bare butts of Manly Men being flogged by cat-o-nines by Manly Men - Belushi's character almost swooned.

This essayist is sooooo Manly.

I thought (from last week or the week before) that the "demonstration strike" was to have been in a relatively unoccupied part of Northern Russia. Not in an Arab cou8ntry. Maybe I got it wrong. I like "24" but I can't watch it without doing other stuff, like reading the paper or something otherwise useful.

The scary part of this story is that before the Bush admininstration took over, this right-wing hawk part of the storyline woulld have been considered so utterly ridiculous that it would have been laughed off the TV. Now we are all just looking at Dick Cheney and nodding our heads.

I can't believe that we're referring to old Kim du Toit posts as though they were milestones of early web trends, like eveander or Mahir's "welcome to my homepage! I kiss you!"

The Kim du Toit essay is more fun today than it ever was.

This offers an especially good time:

Because only the strong men propagate.

And women know it. You want to know why I know this to be true? Because powerful men still attract women. Women, even liberal women, swooned over George Bush in a naval aviator’s uniform. Donald Trump still gets access to some of the most beautiful pussy available, despite looking like a medieval gargoyle. Donald Rumsfeld, if he wanted to, could fuck 90% of all women over 50 if he wanted to, and a goodly portion of younger ones too.

Nowadays, of course, Bush and Rumsfeld couldn't get laid in a cathouse in Texas with thousand dollar bills taped to their saggy chests.

Because women don't much fancy fuckup losers that nobody else would even piss on.

It's a social thing, I guess. Those women!

Thanks for the walk down memory lane, Kevin. Every paragraph simply screams out in denial: "shit, I just thought about penises again! quick, more testosterone!" F***ing closet case.

On a side note, he missed the point of many complaints about Bush's aircraft carrier performance. It wasn't the swagger and martial atmosphere that pissed me off - it was that Bush, the prep-school cheerleader whose daddy got him a National Guard spot, was the one swaggering. A total pussy trying to be a badass is one of the most pathetic sights ever. Even more so when that total pussy still manages to get thousands of Americans and many more thousands of Iraqi civilians killed.

Ah, the golden age of the internet.

When everybody was honest.

John Lott nails it!

People think 24 is a tough macho show? Bah. It's just a bunch of hired actors playing at being tough. You want a super-high-testosterone show, one that's on at the same time as 24, check out IFL Battleground on MyNetwork. It's the real deal.

What, you don't take your views on hetero-manliness from a portly guy with a mustache and a sweater whose names generally refer to, respectively, a woman and a woman's genitalia?

Loafers? BOAT SHOES!

And what do you expect, Kiefer is HALF-CANADIAN! Weird bacon-eatin' surrender monkeys!

"*If you don't get the joke, here's the reference. It was quite the butt of blogosphere mockery back in the day."

Wow, that (the linked article) was the most idiotic thing I've read since "the pony in slavery." In fact...

Eh, no.

The pony in slavery is *still* worse.

...the author of that Ode to Manly Men is named Kim du Toit?

Kim du Toit?!

Jesus... that's even better than the Rosebud scene in Citizen Kane.

Nancy Pelosi If You Had Been President On 9/11/2001, What Would You Have Done
By Frederick Evans
All the World leaders and leaders of America that cared about the USA were in agreement that Iraq should be attack and now four years later we are in the middle of a civil war that no one could have imagined. A Civil war has erupted because the leader of the Muslim world by the name of Muhammad died so suddenly that there was confusion as to who would be the next ruler of the Islamic state. To this day, the Islamic world is divided because of this issue (Shia vs. Sunni). President Pelosi now has to decide to cut and run or stay in Iraq and finish the job of bringing freedom to the 75 percent of the Iraqis that desire freedom.

It does not matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they are no protection from the terrorist Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing - by their own pronouncements - killing all of us "infidels." the peaceful Muslims are afraid to lend a hand. What would you do if the choice was shut up or die? In countries without freedom you will be killed.

So who are we at war with? There is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than the Muslim terrorist Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal. There is no way to win if you do not clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting. We can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sound, the major reason we can lose is that so many of us simply do not fathom the answer to the second question: What does losing mean? It would appear that a great many of us think that losing the war means hanging our heads, bringing the troops home and going on about our business, like post Vietnam.

This is as far from the truth as one can get. What losing really means is: We would no longer be the premier country in the world. The attacks will not subside, but rather will steadily increase. Remember, the terrorist want us dead, not just quiet. If they had just wanted us quiet, they would not have produced an increasing series of attacks against us over the past 18 years. The plan is clearly for terrorists to attack us, until we are neutered and submissive to them. If we lose the war, our production, income, exports and way of life will all vanish as we know it. The Muslim terrorist fully know what is riding on this war, and therefore are completely committed to winning, at any cost. We'd better know it too, and be likewise committed to winning at any cost!! Thank you President Pelosi and our great Soldiers, I am so proud that "DEFEAT" is one word that you and I do not use. I AM WITH YOU ALL THE WAY EVEN IF YOUR LAST NAME WERE BUSH OR KERRY OR MRS. CLINTON.

When will the war end ? answer: when we are certain that we are not attack again.

The funniest part, to me, about Monsieur du Toit's rant:

"But most of all, I do this website because I love being a man."

Because nothing is more manly than writing a blog.

Why is a guy whose name conceivably could rhyme with "twat" writing about "pussification?"

One is reminded of Dr. Katz's patient who (to paraphrase), wanted to get naked with Katz and ride him around the room...not in a gay way...but in a Viking kind of way...

"Women, even liberal women, swooned over George Bush in a naval aviator’s uniform."

Ug, nasty! Nasty! Nasty! Not this liberal woman, I have stood on too many ships not to know at a glance who earned the uniform and who was given one straight out of the box.

Bush's on that carrier was box. His flightsuit was box too. For his kind, the clothes and a photo-op is as good as a 30 year career.

If there is a hell for liberal women, it would be reincarnation as Laura Bush. Ack!

Kevin, that Kim du Toit nonsense linked through to something generically called American Soldier (sorry, I still don't know how to make links), where the blogger complains bitterly about Andy Rooney's recent rant against lowered education standards in Bsh's new army. Along the way, he lauds the folksy skills of an early drill instructor:

"He may have know all the words in the Oxford English Language Dictunary abut he was a fine Soldier and great Jump Master."

Point taken.

Ahem... Kiefer Sutherland is 100% Canadian. His father, of course, is Donald, and his mother is Shirley Douglas, daughter of left-wing (CCF,NDP) politician Tommy Douglas, revered as the founder of Canada's public health care system. Shirley was such an activist in the 60s that she was refused a work permit in the US (she's also an actress) and had to move back to Canada.

Bizarre- on checking up on Shirley Douglas's biography, discovered she played Madeleine Albright in ABC's 2006 right-wing hit piece "Path to 9/11".

I guess you gotta take work where you can get it.
(She's still involved in Canadian politics, campaigning for the NDP (social democrats).
