Could be another repost but it came from one of my oldest buddies who spent too much of his life in Northern Ireland and Basra.
Toast..............from Rico
Watching our delusional DC crowd posing as 'major players' (as they would have us believe) while acting like teenage drama-queen girls has led me to conclude that unless we get rid of the whole inept bunch of them, we are 'toast.'
- ALL of the 'talks' involve no new and innovative ways to solve the proble, only ways to 'stick it' to working Americans. Half of whom live paycheck-to-paycheck, while the other half is unemployed and/or flat broke. Only 58% have a job now; the median wage is $26,261: and the average household is $75,600 in debt.
Getting in touch with my inner Lewis Black: "You have GOT to be sh*tting me!!!"
This debt-charade, management-of-perception-economics (MOPE), and extend-and-pretend is the end-game, not a fix.
I fully expect the Government to do anything except allow itself to die, including 'raiding' those tempting retirement accounts known as Traditional IRA's, Roth's, and 401K's [translation: to a spending addicted politician this is known as ready 'cash']
- With apologies to the noble SAS, I say fortune favors the informed which is exactly why our MSM (presstitutes) and politicians (whores) pathologically LIE to our faces. Remember fellow citizens, having your head in the sand only exposes your butt to be kicked!

A Golf Poem................
In My Hand I Hold A Ball,
White And Dimpled, Rather Small.
Oh, How Bland It Does Appear,
This Harmless Looking Little Sphere.
By Its Size I Could Not Guess,
The Awesome Strength It Does Possess.
But Since I Fell Beneath Its Spell,
I've Wandered Through The Fires Of Hell.
My Life Has Not Been Quite The Same,
Since I Chose To Play This Stupid Game.
It Rules My Mind For Hours On End,
A Fortune It Has Made Me Spend.
It Has Made Me Yell, Curse And Cry,
I Hate Myself And Want To Die.
It Promises A Thing Called Par,
If I Can Hit It Straight And Far.
To Master Such A Tiny Ball,
Should Not Be Very Hard At All.
But My Desires The Ball Refuses,
And Does Exactly As It Chooses.
It Hooks And Slices, Dribbles And Dies,
And Even Disappears Before My Eyes.
Often It Will Have A Whim,
To Hit A Tree Or Take A Swim.
With Miles Of Grass On Which To Land,
It Finds A Tiny Patch Of Sand.
Then Has Me Offering Up My Soul,
If Only It Would Find The Hole.
It's Made Me Whimper Like A Pup,
And Swear That I Will Give It Up.
And Take To Drink To Ease My Sorrow,
But The Ball Knows ... I'll Be Back Tomorrow.

Analysis and Updates on Norway Terror Attacks
I've got a big report analyzing the killer's political program: "Anders Behring Breivik's Manifesto."
The guy's a criminal mastermind whose "program," as written, wouldn't fit a single major established party. He's explicitly "ethno-nationalist" but rejects the racial supremacy theories of Europe's historical hard-right parties. And Breivik hopelessly romanticizes an earlier time that is simply not coming back. He's crazy in that sense. A loner, rejecting intimacy and relationships that might jeopardize his "cause." He is conservative, but again the idea that he's "far right" is ridiculous in the European context. Nazis hated Jews. He loves them as preserving the crusading anti-Islamic history of the Medieval West. Most of all, the manifesto lays out a program of terrorism using all manners of paramilitary resistance, including deployment of weapons of mass destruction (and yes, nuclear and radiological weapons).RELATED:

Norway Terrorist: The Left Will Soon Be Picking At His Bones.............by Dan Friedman
Now that we know the Norwegian massacre was not committed by an Islamist, it’s safe for the Left to go after the terrorist and try to link him to responsible counter-Jihadists on the Web and elsewhere; just like they did with Gabrielle Gifford’s shooter – until they learned he drew his inspiration not from Sarah Palin but from the Left.
As you can see here, the jackals are already circling in Europe. It won’t be long before they’re swarming here.

Norwegian Terrorist: Just What Was He Thinking?............by Dan Friedman
Richard Star of The Weekly Standard has uncovered The Manifesto Behind the Horror in Norway. Star writes, “The Norwegian terrorist seems to have penned a long Unabomber-style manifesto, "2083: A European Declaration of Indpendence," which can be downloaded, for now at least, at this link.” Moments ago I successfully downloaded the pdf and took a random walk through the 1500 page document. You might download it yourself. As star puts it, “The man is a mass-murdering sociopath, responsible for a horrific bloodbath yesterday. He is an extremist, but he is not incoherent.” I agree – and would add one other note of commentary. Those looking for anti-Semitic, anti-Israel rants will be sorely disappointed. Below is part of a long Q&A from the manuscript.
Q: What tipped the scales for you? What single event made you decide you wanted to continue planning and moving on with the assault?
A: For me, personally, it was my government’s involvement in the attacks on Serbia (NATO bombings in 1999) several years back. It was completely unacceptable how the US and Western European regimes bombed our Serbian brothers. All they wanted was to drive Islam out by deporting the Albanian Muslims back to Albania. When the Albanians refused, they really didn’t have any choice but to use military force. By disallowing the Serbians the right for self-determination over their sovereign territory they indirectly dug a grave for Europe. A future where several Mini-Pakistan’s would eventually will be created in every Western European capital. This is unacceptable, completely unacceptable.
There have been several issues that have reaffirmed my beliefs since then. Among them; my governments cowardly handling of the Muhammad Cartoon issue and their decision to award the Nobel peace prize to an Islamic terrorist (Arafat) and appeasers of Islam. There have been tens of other issues. My government and our media capitulated to Islam several years ago, after the Rushdie event. Since then, it has gone downhill. Thousands of Muslims pouring in annually through our Asylum institution, or by family reunification. The situation is just chaotic. These suicidal traitors must be stopped.

Debt solution explained for Democrats............from Rico
These six cartoon panels offer a clear explanation of the current Debt Ceiling [read: Crisis, never let go to waste, Rohm Enamel].
It's brief, succint, and easy to understand...you could almost call it "Debt Ceiling for Dummies" but I'm not overly certain that all Democrats (C) will grasp the concept.
Those with a pulse understand the First Law of Holes. When you find yourself at the bottom of one: STOP DIGGING!
Incredible that the only 'debt solutions' I've hear proposed yet consist of "keep digging" [read: borrowing, spending, and printing more FRN's*].
Makes me badly quote Horace "Ignoramus expellas furca, tamen usque revinit." [You may drive stoopid out with a pitchfork, she will nevertheless come back.]
- Apologies, old boy.
