A woman that I am acquainted with recently requested that I procure some ducats for the Letterman Show. Her sense was that as a lifelong New Yorker it was something she might as well get around to, along with walking to the top of the Statue of Liberty and spitting off of the Empire State Building.
If we have learned anything on The Aurora its that chicks dig me, well besides that liberals are bigots that hate gays, blacks, women, and children; man made global warming is a scaremongering fraudulent money grab; and that the democrat party is comprised of America-hating traitors that is.
The fact that chicks dig me is indisputable but the reasoning may be up for debate. Is it because I am handsome and charming or because I deliver the goods? Regardless I suppose that's an area of discussion for another day.
So back to the original plot line and needless to say I made my way to the Ed Sullivan Theater to score some Late Show tickets. To be honest I was a little surprised by the third degree interrogation, besides the usual name rank and contact number, they started asking me what my favorite characters skits and what have you were.
Maybe its because I was at this point irritated by the twentysomething with a clipboard putting me on the griddle or maybe because I was more ornery than usual that day or maybe I just told the truth as I answered that I am old school and used to watch Letterman when he wore wrestling boots and was funny, and now? not so much.
I didn't get the tickets.
Well, if I had it to do all over again my answer would be completely different. I was watching last night and they had one of the funniest skits Ive seen since Chris Elliot's "The Guy Under The Stairs". If I'm not mistaken I believe the character's name was Bill Clinton or something along those lines.
His best joke was when criticizing The Bush War (because let's be honest it has nothing to do with Iraq from the opposition's standpoint) he made the comment that we should not get involved in "civil wars" or "sectarian struggles". Ha ha very funny Dr Jones.
Oh yeah, you don't say......
"My fellow Americans, today our Armed Forces joined our NATO allies in air strikes against Serbian forces responsible for the brutality in Kosovo. We have acted with resolve for several reasons. We act to protect thousands of innocent people in Kosovo from a mounting military offensive. We act to prevent a wider war; to diffuse a powder keg at the heart of Europe that has exploded twice before in this century with catastrophic results. And we act to stand united with our allies for peace. By acting now we are upholding our values, protecting our interests and advancing the cause of peace. " -- Bill Clinton
But you didn't get Congressional approval, so isn't that an "illegal" war? How do you justify said action?
"Ending this tragedy is a moral imperative. It is also important to America's national interest. Take a look at this map. Kosovo is a small place, but it sits on a major fault line between Europe, Asia and the Middle East, at the meeting place of Islam and both the Western and Orthodox branches of Christianity. To the south are our allies, Greece and Turkey; to the north, our new democratic allies in Central Europe. And all around Kosovo there are other small countries, struggling with their own economic and political challenges -- countries that could be overwhelmed by a large, new wave of refugees from Kosovo. All the ingredients for a major war are there: ancient grievances, struggling democracies, and in the center of it all a dictator in Serbia who has done nothing since the Cold War ended but start new wars and pour gasoline on the flames of ethnic and religious division." -- Bill Clinton
Wow that sounds pretty convincing, but America has shown it doesn't have the stomach for a long drawn out war..... why should we stay?
"Right now our firmness is the only hope the people of Kosovo have to be able to live in their own country without having to fear for their own lives. Remember: We asked them to accept peace, and they did. We asked them to promise to lay down their arms, and they agreed. We pledged that we, the United States and the other 18 nations of NATO, would stick by them if they did the right thing. We cannot let them down now.
Imagine what would happen if we and our allies instead decided just to look the other way, as these people were massacred on NATO's doorstep. That would discredit NATO, the cornerstone on which our security has rested for 50 years now." -- Bill Clinton
Well said, I am sold. America must remain vigilant and resolute as a beacon of freedom. Now just replace Kosovo with Iraq because after all whats good for the Serb is good for the Sunni.
In closing I would like to add.....
What's the feckin' matter with these people (dems)? Is it that they really are this stupid and think that people don't remember their own words and actions? Or is that they know their constituents are such blind partisans that they don't care and that a complicit media wont remind everyone else?
Its a sad state for the dem party when Hillary leads the polls and even her supporters that I talk to have no clue where she stands.... on anything.
... I ended up getting tickets and Letterman still aint funny.
EE-Aw!!!

clearly it's the latter. The MSM will never betray the "first black president" because they're all hippies just like him.
By the way, the original reason for going in there was to end the campaign of genocide. Tens of thousands were being systematically exterminated..... except that wasn't true..... so did clinton LIE US INTO WAR?
...and Im surprised that our resident whack job hasnt weighed in, as the murder of Slobodan during his trial just as he was getting ready to countersue smacks of conspiracy, but that would indict Bill Clinton and its against the law for dems to do that.
why the confusion o.donkodar? clearly, your average woman prefers a man who can Deliver the Ducats, and do so on an on-going basis. as for you Average Mary Jones or Sassy Sallie-May Der Gringo, looks (i.e., handsomeness, however you may define it) ... not so much (well, within reason of course. as the guy's gotta be nicely ... oh, howyousay ... endowed).
Anita is the responder with resident whack job status?
Where's Gary? I thought that was his job, and Anita was the hit chick?
Anyway I thought of the Cartographer discussion and found this story, figured it would be of interest. It seems that Clinton AND global warming have kept cartographers busy.
Here
Please tell Rhino that as a poor-hating liberal, the housing travesty has been my gain and I avoided the perils of buying south of route 25A.
Holly crap lily are you living on LI? Working here? Both?
If you're here and you don't meet me for a drink i'm gonna be extremely pissed!
Oh and Gary IS the whack job, and Anita is the HOT chick not the hit chick.
actually that was an interesting article!
From now on i'm telling chicks that we need to get busy gettin busy because i'm a cartographer and i KNOW the world is coming to an end soon!
I dont know bout that, Anita could be an eastern European name and she did live in Brooklyn.... she might very well be a hit chick for the KGB.
... and if youre going to rock the cartographer then Ill use the zamboni driver who is going to re-ice the polar caps for the baby seals.
actually, i've been working for the mossad for several years now. just don't tell anyone.
and on cartography issues, i dread the day when the mapmakers have to excise manhattan when the sea level rises above it, not to mention long island, although that island aka peninsula will probably be wiped off the map by a category 5 before that happens.
on another note, "hotness" is relative. it's in the eye of the beholder, no?
i love it when you talk global warming hysteria! So Hot!
Chicks dig you? WE'RE FADING THAT IN SIZE, FRIEND. Check betfair.com. No money the other way at all.
Two questions unrelated to chicks or betting, if I wanted to "support the troops," how would I go about it?
Also, you are young and strong. Why don't you enlist, get your gun, and fight. Could it be that the Iraqis shoot back and Gary doesn't?
