Thinking is so HARD!................from Rico
To truly understand the statement "opiate of the masses" you either have to be a student of Marx, a big fan of Mao, an Alinskyite...or be old like me and know who Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) was, and what HE would have said about it; ...but that would mean you had to go to school before the Department of Education was created and hand-in-hand with the NEA made certain that "dead white males" were no longer taught, and their concepts eradicated to make way for the creation of good young socialists for the future brave new world.
Up with Maya Angelou and down with Shakespeare and Plato!!!!!
Power to the sheeple!

THE SECRET AGENT
STORMBRINGER presents the story of Jim Thompson, Thailand's most famous farang and one of America's many unknown Secret Warriors.
Recruited by Brigadier General William Joseph Donovan, Jim Thompson served during World War II in the Office of Strategic Services. A fluent French speaker, Thompson participated in missions behind enemy lines in German-occupied France.
At the end of World War II Thompson took charge of the Bangkok office of the OSS, and remained in Thailand for the rest of his life. Although he officially abandoned intelligence activities in 1947, many have suspected he was still a non-official cover. During the Vietnam War, his closest friend, General Edwin Black, was in charge of United States Air Force Special Operations activities over Laos and Thailand.
In 1967 Jim Thompson disappeared under extremely mysterious circumstances in the Cameron Highlands region of Malaysia.

Chicago Beat Down: The White House Gang
The Chicago Way I
The Chicago Way II
More at Moonbattery (via).
“The essential characteristic of socialism is the denial of individual property rights; under socialism, the right to property (which is the right of use and disposal) is vested in ’society as a whole,’ i.e., in the collective, with production and distribution controlled by the state, i.e., by the government. Socialism may be established by force, as in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics – or by vote, as in Nazi (National Socialist) Germany. The degree of socialization may be total, as in Russia – or partial, as in England. Theoretically, the differences are superficial; practically, they are only a matter of time. The basic principle, in all cases, is the same.” - From “The Monument Builders“
Battle Of Britain (2)
As an antidote to the other article, here's something for the movie buffs. (Well, as long as you don't mind that there's no American WW2 heros or heroines). Enjoy the clips from the Battle of Britain at my presenter blogsite
Battle Of Britain (1)
North American readers of this site maybe aware of a little difficulty the BBC encountered the other evening, when they allowed the leader of the BNP, an ultra-right, sorry, ultra left-wing party on to the well known BBC political show, Question Time. Here, Jonathan Gabay, author of Soul Traders explains at the Business and Politics blog how this political party is trying to ditch it's "neo-nazi" past.

IT's NEVER OVER
For some warriors, the shooting never stops . . . 
Tsuji Masanobu ( 辻 政信 ) Modern-day Samurai, Member of Parliament, War Criminal.
I first heard of this notorious Japanese warrior at a party many years ago, at a friend's house in Washington DC. Notorious in his native Japan, if he did half of what he is reputed to have done, then his place is secured at the Viking Long Table in the Mead Hall of Valhalla. - S.L.
Tsuji Masanobu was a professional soldier the Imperial Army during the Second World War. An extreme fanatic by even Japanese Army standards, his aggressive and insubordinate attitude contributed to the Soviet-Japanese Border Wars of the 1930's, particularly the Changkufeng Incident/Battle of Lake Khasan and the Nomonhan Incident/Battle of Khalkhin Gol.
Tsuji Masanobu went MIA - Missing In Action - in Laos in 1961.
I posted the Saga of Tsuji Masanobu as part of a larger story concerning Japanese military involvement in Southeast Asia in the aftermath of World War II, to be posted later this weekend.

Hang Up and Drive ........... from PeterGunn
The Honda crotch rocket rider was traveling at approximately 85 mph. The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the motorcycle. The riders reaction time was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident. Both drivers both made stupid decisions -- their last.
The car had two passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of impact and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.
All three involved (two in the car and the bike rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department.
Pass this on to car drivers or soon to be new drivers, or new motorcycle owners
AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO HAS A CELL PHONE!!!!!

Going DOWN?................from Rico
Scuba divers recognize the flag/signal "diver down" ...but it seems that as the consumer gets creamed by shrinking credit, a shrinking dollar, and increasing unemployment...the cheerleaders of team Obama (MSNBC, et al) consistently ignore the fact that the FED has to 'buy" USG debt that no one else in the world wants.
Look at these charts. They are the polar opposite of 'green shoots' or 'recovery' or anything you hear in the media.
Move along now. Nothing to see here.
All is well!

Bear attack 2009
Apparently a bear attacked his plane while parked in a remote field up here in AK. He had not cleaned out the inside after a long fishing trip and the bear smelled it.
He had 2 new tires, 3 cases of Duct Tape and several rolls of cellophane delivered. Then went about repairing the plane so he could fly it home.
Gutsy to say the least.
