War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
As the last half on May approaches, sometimes we get the feeling that events are not only catching up with us, but somehow they are passing us by in a cloud of smoke. Clarity can be choked off as chaos, both in the world and in our private, little supposedly secure lives, grows and grows…
Is global warming for real? Does it threaten our country? A lot of smart people think so, but a lot of dumb-ass people don’t. In one of the most ludricous encounters I’ve heard of in some time occurred this past in an apparent ongoing verbal battle on whether the CIA should spend time and money…
As if Decider George hadn’t done enough carnage for a couple dozen adminstrations, now the policies he and his cohorts have concocted and implemented may finally whip-up some real-nasty dung. Yesterday, Russia’s own Vadimir V. Putin (probably the perfect snicker last name, a name out of a Will Ferrell/Ben Stiller/early Woody Allen comedy) gave a…
Dufus Dick Cheney flew into Baghdad early this morning, wearing a fashion-conscious bullet-proof garment under his sport coat, which at first glimpse, looked a lot like a nice, cordoroy vest. Dufus Dick is in Iraq to try and stir up some freaking success without lying about it. He couldn’t find any so he lied. “Everyone…
Sometimes when we hear something on the airwaves that makes us so mad as hell, we want to reach into the vast digital optic wasteland and snatch up Decider George and anyone else in close proximity and just choke the living shit out of them. On Tuesday, an InsideAdvantage/Majority Opinion poll was released showing near…
A landscape portrait like something out of a movie. Trees appearing as bone-people standing wind-swept across the country-flat land. Horror a mile wide at 200 miles-an-hour. Across what once was a 1,500-populated town, Greensburg, Kansas, is a picture out of a war zone, a spot bombed in a nature-made shock and awe. The little farming…
What goes around comes around. When Decider George decided to turn a blind eye, ear, nose and throat to the absolute horror his sorry-assed team had created in Iraq, one of the worst national leaders in world history poured jet fuel on an already scorching inferno. Against all normal, rational and conventional wisdom produced by…
Decider George can’t becide what to do, or say. Four years ago, he publicly mused he didn’t worry too much about Osama Bin Laden’s outfit, the now-mega-famous (or infamous, if you will, depending on what part of the planet you’re on) Al-Qaeda and the impact the group displayed. And now as the situation in Iraq…
Monday was the fourth anniversary of the now-even-more-stupid “Mission Accomplished” event that Decider George played out on the deck of an aircraft carrier. The strutting, rooster-Cogburn, Tom Cruise-like Top Gun bullshit that was, duly noted at the time, a photo op for the mentally divergent. And on that anniversary, Democrats unrolled their own war plans…
