Watership Donk

Before I even heard of Donald Trump, I was what you could call the Donald Trump of Central New York. Well... not in the sense that I had bad hair because that's a fookin' lie and you damn well know it, but rather in the sense that I was a real estate magnate.

Technically I didn't "own" any properties but through various means and negotiations had access to a stable of lakefront homes far and wide. From Seneca to Skaneateles and Otisco to Oneida all the way up north to the great granddaddy of them all Ontario. As it would happen my “access” was coincidentally limited to the off-season.

Now mind you that I'm just a caveman and your fancy legal mumbo jumbo about breaking and entering, trespassing, and unlawful entry confuse and befuddle me but truth be told I was just a squirrel trying to get a nut.

You might be thinking to yourself that I was nothing but a two-bit criminal, but you’d be wrong. I never took a god damn thing from any of "my" homes, rather I did so out of love, or in layman’s terms.... pussy.

Always the statistician I realized that adding the proper bedding environment to the equation multiplied my odds of success tenfold.

Alright alright I stole shit too, but that was also done out of love... ok ok, it was for the money. However truthfully that was never the primary motivation.

Fook-it, it was all about the money, but if I was a thief, and mind you no court of law ever found that to be the case, thanks to DH the greatest lawyer in the WORLD... I was a romantic thief at heart.

Ever the host, on one occasion I invited another couple (and a special friend we called eL Sid) up to one of my cabins for the weekend. If memory serves me well it was near a town that was infamous for erroneously and fraudulently claiming to be the birthplace of chewing gum, and I kid you not they actually had a statue of a pack of Wrigley’s in the town square.

Would you know that I completely forgot to have the power/water turned on and failed to stock the fridge beforehand so we were left to our own devices. Eventually the issue of dinner came up after a few hours of mucking about, so I pointed out how I noticed a farm just a hop trip and a jump down the road.

This was all eL Sid needed to hear. He suggested that we could eat off the land like the Iroquois and that since it was pouring rain it would be best to do so naked to avoid getting our clothes wet.

eL Sid lead we followed.

Well, if we had Eddie Rabbitt rainy night high-Fiver visions of Cowslip’s fields aplenty, those visions were met with a sorry snare of disappointment. There would be no big salads of lettuce tomatoes and carrots but rather we would have to gorge ourselves on gourds.

See, this was no garden of eating at all as we imagined but rather a great big ol' pumpkin patch.

This was good enough for eL Sid, good enough for us, so we set about cracking the pumpkins over rocks and feasting on the pulp or whatever the frick the entrails of pumpkins are called, and that's the way it was and we liked it!

Now you may be asking yourself what the hell is the point of this post, well there isn’t one really. I just figured during this holiday season as you are carving jack-o-lanterns on Halloween and eating pumpkin pie after your Thanksgiving dinner to give you a gift… the gift of an everlasting visual of me rolling around in the dirt buck ass nekkid eating pumpkins in the rain.

You’re welcome.

Peter SAARsgAARD Stole My Couches

This story reminded me of an ol' ditty originally posted last year......

This is an open letter of apology to the saleswoman at the furniture store in Jersey City, NJ that I called a liar ( and a few other choice words) a few years back.

At the time I had just moved into a new place and needed some new couches. Long story short after about four months I had bought two sets from two different stores and for various reasons neither were able to deliver. At wits end and still couch-less I decided on a mom and pop store across the river in Joisey that had the exact Italian leather dual reclining set I wanted and as bonus I would save a few bucks on the sales tax.

Explaining my situation to the saleswoman I was assured that I would not be disappointed by the level of service at their store. So I placed my order, crossed my fingers and waited patiently at home on a metal milk crate.

You guessed it.... two weeks go by no couches.

Don't worry I'm told they are en route. A month goes by, no couches. Don't worry I'm told they are en route. Needless to say I was not a happy camper and had a stiff back to boot. The constant reassurance and the grandmotherly disposition of the saleswoman convinced me to hang in there, after all I had waited this long, shirley the couches had to be on their way.

Another week passes and I'm about to lose my mind, good posture, and patience as well, so I get this woman on the horn one more time......

"I'm sorry Mr Donkeyhue, but it seems your couches have been hijacked by pirates off the coast of Corsica"

You've got to be fucking kidding me!

Having suffered from partial and thankfully not permanent facial paralysis, piracy was a subject that I had researched extensively in preparation of the inevitable questions of....

"Dude, whats up with the eye patch?"

It was easier to just say that I was a bastard descendant of the Pirate Whore Grace O'Malley then to explain what the fuck Bell's Palsy was.

So if a Corsair connoisseur such as myself wasn't aware of any incidents of modern day piracy then shirley they didnt exist.

Tell me anything, spin it any way you so want but do NOT fucking tell me that my furniture has been shanghaied... I just didn't buy it and threw the bullshit flag. Needless to say I really tore into this woman for the blatant lie she was telling me.

Pirates don't exist anymore! Do they?

Well apparently they do ... so for doubting you, for taking my business elsewhere, but mostly I apologize for berating you. I don't really think you should go out to pasture and die. I'm sorry baby.... I didn't mean to hurt you.

Ee-AAR!!!

Vote For Bill Russell!

No not this guy. William T Russell who's running against John Murtha for his seat in PA.

After nearly three decades in the military, William T. Russell’s latest mission has brought him to Johnstown.The career Army man, just two years short of retirement, has left the service and moved to the Flood City in order to mount a political campaign against veteran Democratic U.S. Rep. John Murtha.As a Republican and first-time candidate facing a powerful congressman in the sprawling, Democrat-dominated 12th Congressional District, Russell faces a tough challenge.But he is determined to press ahead and will formally announce his candidacy within weeks.

Putting Congress Back to Work!

You know, i'm thinking we should get Friday off.....

This Friday?

No EVERY FRIDAY!

Takes some serious balls to come out with this announcement less than a year after saying you're "putting congress back to work!" So the real agenda is to do the right thing for the American people, or to just be anti- Bush?

You do the math.

"Quote"

"It has ever been my hobby-horse to see rising in America an empire of liberty, and a prospect of two or three hundred millions of freemen, without one noble or one king among them. You say it is impossible. If I should agree with you in this, I would still say, let us try the experiment, and preserve our equality as long as we can. A better system of education for the common people might preserve them long from such artificial inequalities as are prejudicial to society, by confounding the natural distinctions of right and wrong, virtue and vice."


-- John Adams (letter to Count Sarsfield, 3 February 1786)

Ayo For Yayo

Wednesdays are my drinking night with my white friends, and by white I mean white white. I use race here not to illustrate a kinship but rather my exclusion from that class. I may be white but I ain't white like these guys. I'm talking old monied crackas... The private schooling, trust funds, whale belted seer-sucker suits and weekend retreats on Nantucket white.

But...

If anything I am a man of the people and my social life reads like the UN, only less incompetent. I don’t discriminate against conservative caucasians as is so trendy these days.

However for the purpose of this conversation, I will be playing the role of a honky donkey.

As is to be expected our tavern talk inevitably leads to hot topics such as the evils of homosexuality and what's wrong with the black community. We do so not because we are homophobic bigots but because we are constantly told that it is all our fault on the nightly news.

It isn't, and trust me if we had our druthers, we wouldn't even talk or care about it if there weren't an oppressed minority story in the news every single gosh darnit day.

Mark Twain just called... apparently Huck Finn was a paraplegic jewish lesbian. Huh?

... but most of all we just talk about chicks, chicks man!

As would be expected when it comes to attracting women into our crew it is usually I that is the ringleader, and yes I use that word intentionally to convey not only the circus like environment but also to point out how in essence we are a bunch of clowns.

This role falls to me not necessarily because I am the most charming or handsome, although the argument can be made that that is the case, but rather because…

... well I'm upper upper class high society. God's gift to ballroom notoriety, and I always fill my ballroom. The event is never small. The social pages say I've got.... the biggest balls of them all.

Ive always found that the most direct sexually insinuative cards on the table approach to be the most successful but in group settings it can be tricky it's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time it's tricky, as there are multiple variables i.e. prudes/fat friend/cockblockers that can foil the entire operation.

What complicates matters more is that I’ve recently placed myself on the injured reserve list and am no longer an active pursuer so I decided to have some fun with my job as Chattel Wrangler and broke out a new move that I’ve been secretly working on, in fact I shouldn't even be talking about it.

... but I will.

I’m calling it the Manolo Lizard inspired by Tony Montana's sidekick Manny Ribera, the man was a frickin’ genius, and ahead of his time innovator. Those that have seen the movie know exactly what I'm talking 'bout and those that haven’t let me explain.

What you do is form a V with your middle and index fingers, place closely to your mouth and then in an in and out rapid fire succession dart your tongue like a bug coming out of your mouth through the small part of the V where the fingers meet.

The implication should need no explanation.

So what I would do after catching a broad checking me out is break out El Lizardo followed by a circular beckoning hand motion to bring her whole crew over.

… and would you fuckin’ believe it, the son of bitch worked like a charm. I’m talking four out seven Hall of Fame type numbers, even better than the gold standard... the hi-five.

Shhhit, maybe I am that handsome and charming or maybe I underestimated the popularity of early eighties cocaine sagas amongst women.

Flat Tax Anyone?

Once again the Dems want to raise taxes on the "rich". So if you and your spouse earn $200k per year on ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME , meaning before any deductions, then you will pay a penalty for working hard and being somewhat successful.

This is bad policy and will not only hurt the individuals affected, many of whom are school teachers and fireman (middle class) but it will hurt the economy in general.

Rangel is only pushing this policy because he believes the dems will retake the whitehouse. Lets hope the voters realize that this will be the new tax policy if that happens.

Rangel Tax Hike

The Fascist Right?

" Liberals claim to be terrified that the Religious Right is going to take over the culture in a country where more than a million babies are exterminated every year, kindergarteners can be expelled from school for mentioning God, and Islamic fascists are welcomed on college campuses while speakers opposed to Islamic fascism are met with angry protests. "

Yes lefties it's Coulter!

Clinton Scandal? I'm Shocked

No I'm not shocked that there's another Clinton scanal, I'm shocked that it appeared first or even at all in the uber liberal LA Times.
So what does that tell you?
Clearly the LA Times plans to endorse Obama because otherwise this story never see's the light of day.

An ambitious presidential front-runner. A hot scramble for campaign cash. A corner-cutting past. And now red lights are flashing that she could be in hock to foreign interests. This is going downhill fast.

Story

ET TU.....Murtha?

After everything she did for him.......

Some Democrats say Pelosi couldn't have anticipated the backlash. Yet Representative Jack Murtha of Pennsylvania, one of her closest allies, said he had warned her in February that the resolution could erode U.S. support in the Middle East. ``This is not a way to help us in an area where we need allies,'' Murtha said.

Congratulations

It's a slow day here at Aurora land, (market is down 250 pts) and it's a rainy day in NY so I'm taking this opportunity to congratulate my friend who completed the Ironman Triathlon last weekend in Kona Hawaii.
She is not a professional triathlete, and in fact she is a police officer but she's bad ass and she's also the reason why I started doing triathlons this past summer.
I guess i should also congratulate her on getting engaged to one of my best friends. This also happened last weekend in Hawaii. So congratulations C and N.

Of course they don't read this blog so i don't expect a response, but i'm really just watching my net worth drop to zero so i had nothing better to do.

Living In A Powder Keg

Ill be honest, I haven't really followed the SCHIP storyline. Mainly because I never liked the smirk on that smug Poncherello's mug and John always struck me as a bit of a fancyboy, but more importantly as a card carrying conservative it is my god given duty to hate, among other special interest groups, children... especially the poor uninsured ones.

I can however relate my own personal experience with a liberal using a child as a moral authority shield. My neighbor is an academic liberal type and as neighbors do, I regularly bump into him in the hall as he and his wife are off to some rally with brightly colored placards full of well thought out witticisms.

That being said, we always got along swimmingly and would exchange more than the usual hi hello how are you doing back and forth banter.

A few months back things started to change as the pleasantries ceased altogether and some odd questions poised to my visiting female companions. Looking back I don't think it was mere coincidence that the hostilities commenced right around the time I started receiving home delivery of The New York Sun, the city's finest conservative rag.

Seeing that for the most part I don't really like people, this sudden shunning was no sweat off my balls and I just chalked it off as one less hippie that I had to deal with on a daily basis.

But then he went too far....

To borrow from a popular bumper stick of the seventies...

You can mess with my money and you can mess with my wife but when you mess with my van and you're risking your life.

Replace Donktacular Karaoke Extravaganza with van, and you get the picture.

Mind you these events tend not to lean towards the Billy Joel Bon Jovi pop variety but rather the Guns Metallica Toadies kind of rocking and it can admittedly get kind of loud.

So loud that on this occasion nobody heard my neighbor knocking or even when he allowed himself into my apartment clamoring for us to tone down the ruckus, because I too not unlike the Wu-Tang Clan bring the motherfuckin' ruckus.

I don't normally lock my door partly because I'm a trustworthy hilljack, partly because I hate carrying keys, and partly because I have insurance so if I get robbed I get new shit.

Now this would be about the time that I grab my Bernard Gilkey bat and beat a body down at the drop of a hat but upon further inspection of the intruder I spied a mansupial chest pouch with baby on board.

I may be a bad guy but even I'm not gonna crack some guy in front of his kid. Regardless if it was only nine o'clock, regardless that he was trespassing, regardless that he tried to stop the rock.

He showcased his kid and he won the debate and as a result we turned it down and went back to singing Bonnie "Incredible. You found a golf course near the conference. Awesome Chinese. Now you find me a way around traffic. I love you" Tyler which anyone that knows anything knows that although the makings of a great GPS commercial, ain't nothing donktacular about that.

Then again it probably wasn't even his kid, frickin' lying liberal bastard.

Must Read

I'm kind of like Christopher Columbus discovering the new world. Sure it wasn't new, but it was new to him so he got credit for "discovering" it.

Well this blog is new to me so I'm thinking i should get some kind of prize, or maybe a holiday or something, but either way it's a must read. I'll be checking it out regularly and you should too.

Especially the post about Islam being a fake religion.

The HILL Chronicles

Speaking Of Going Too Far......

The National Association of Ugly Hooked Nose Women are up in arms over wiccan wiccan witch imagery spontaneously popping up around the nation this October. Apparently its bad enough to be an ugly busted face bitoch for eleven months out of the year that they dont need to be reminded on the countless dateless nights and home alone proms of years past, and they are offended over the use of their imagery for Halloween celebrations.

or even more ridiculous......

A New Jersey family was forced to remove a hangman's gallow Halloween display because it offended someone and the NAACP immediately strung into action to suppress the First Amendment rights of Americans.

This is a crock of shit. Whats next.... we ban STYX's Renegade from the airwaves? actually thats not a terrible idea.... that song sucks.

Listen darkies (Im Black-Irish I can get away with that), Im gonna be as clear as I can on this....get over it already. You are not history's only victims, you are not the only peoples to be hanged, so stop being such a bunch of fucking pussies! Its getting old and it is doing nothing to help your advancement.

Digging In The Dirt

For every action, there is a reaction. Every cause has its effect.

Well in the prophetical words of the Beastie Boys.....

...I can't stand it I know you planned it, but I'm gonna set it straight, this (Otto)gate. I can't stand rocking when I'm in here, because your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear. So while you sit back and wonder why I got this fuckin' thorn in my side. Oh my God, it's a mirage...I'm tellin' y'all it's Sabotage.

I think everyone can agree that the Ottomans were bad guys, but so too were the Saracens and, or an even better and more recent example...hmm I don't know, how bout the Baathist regime's gassing of the Kurds.

What's next? A strongly worded letter to the Brits stating emphatically that we wont drink their limey tea no more.... immediately followed by the LiptonCo fire-bombing Starbucks.

.... or maybe a non-binding resolution condeming Mok for hitting Drog with a rock in the cave.

What's the frickin' point???

Normally I would chalk this up as the democrats just being the same old incompetent keystonecopian democrats, but legislation they are pushing forward has directly resulted in....

... Turkey recalling their Ambassador in protest.

Yet the dems still move onward.

... Turkey threatens military action in Northern Iraq.

And still they press forward.

It is clear that their pusillanimity is no longer passive and that they are aggressively pursuing a course of action that will put American lives at risk as well as jeopardizing the stability of the entire region.

This time, unlike how my wrath is usually focused on the dem leadership, I put the blame squarely on the rank and file. You did this! You put then in power! You stand by idly silently cheering as your leaders call our troops murderers and terrorists and besmirch the good works and name of The United States of America to her enemies. The whole fucking lot of you are nothing but no good traitors, and spin it or interpret it how you want... but that is the truth.

Its bad enough that the media has divided us into Red or Blue states, but when Congressional leadership starts taking its marching orders from Code Pink they've gone too far.

This time they've gone too far. This time they've gone too far. This time they've gone too far. -- Peter Gabriel

On Second Thought...

At first glance, i was outraged by this story.....

Prescribe 'the pill' at middle school?


But after further consideration i'm thinking hey, do we want these idiots to reproduce? Probably not. I mean lets face it, they're obviously not that smart, and clearly their parents are liberals or they wouldn't agree to allow this to go on. Between the "Roe Effect" and birth control for these idiots we should be able to eliminate a good portion of the future generation of liberals. That is as long as we close the borders.

Suddenly i'm feeling a little bit better about the future of our country.

Rabbit Is A Dish Best Served Bar-B-Q'd

Long time reader and first time caller Anita recently questioned her motives for frequenting this blog despite feeling as if she was the target of constant abuse by the big fascist meanies.

Although I have been known to stay at a Holiday Inn Express by no means am I a psychiatrist, but if I had to put my finger on it, and I will if you want, Id say its the same reason that I am known to date certifiably bunny boiling insane women.

Yeah it sucks when they smash your cellular in the middle of a restaurant over an alleged and imaginary suspected affair, but for every yin there is a yang and for every destroyed phone there is guaranteed soon to follow equally insane sex.

Wait a minute did I just imply that The Aurora are crazy chicks? Well as the Chicano philosophers of Cypress Hill once described us in verse, its because were loco ese, insane in membrane, plenty insane, got no brain, as well as the fact that the cops did indeed try to steal our crops.

Or how I found myself at a Ron Paul rally this past Saturday at ten in the morn. Hell, thems get the fuck outta town airport hours, I don't even wake up that early to get to work on time.

Maybe it was because I get so few opportunities to attend conservative events in NYC or maybe its because I want to believe, but I just cant get over how much of a negative prick this guy is. On paper, besides his Iraq position he's the ideal candidate, but as The Mets have unfortunately shown us.... championships aren't won on paper.

President Ronald Reagan ran on pretty much the same platform in '80. The government was broke and our foreign policy was a disaster and he was the man to fix it. However President Reagan focused on how kick ass we are as nation and promised to restore that greatness, not constantly carp about how much we suck as Paul and the every single one of the dem candidates are doing.

I'm not saying to ignore our problems, of which admittedly we have a few but then again too few to mention, but it strikes me that a new ideology of nothing more than criticism has emerged. Look no further than the dems... they criticized Congressional corruption and the Iraq War and what do they do when they gain power? They continue to criticize corruption and the Iraq War and not do a frickin' thing about it, or anything for that matter.

Ill be god damned if I'm going to vote for a Debbie Downer for President...wah waaaah.

Two more things, Ron Paul waves like a woman and his supporters need to get a new chant. Repeating Ron Paul over and over reminded me of that kid in The Shining muttering red rum red rum red rum red rum ... its just flat out creepy.

Land Of The LOST

I tend to agree with Ayn Rand in that as far altruism is concerned, there is no such thing as a purely selfless act.

As a young lad during the Great Lake effect winters, I would shovel my elderly neighbors driveways. I did this to avoid getting a beatdown from me mother more so than any sense of charitable community civic duty.

Or how when my school required volunteer work, I linked up with the Salvation Army not so much because I agreed with their militant evangelicalism, although I too possess a fever for which only more cowbell is the cure, but rather to get my hands on some free Levi dungarees which at the time were out of my economic reach.

One of my multiple tasks involved organizing donated books under the Donkey Decimal system. Ok to those that know me personally get it out now... haha Conan the Librarian haha very funny.

This was great for me as not yet having discovered the pleasures of girls, my energies were focused on sports and reading and having access to such a wide variety of free books enabled me to amass what I believed at the time to be the largest private home library owned by a thirteen year old.

One particular book that stood out and still remains in my bookcase was U.S. Naval Captain Alfred T. Mahan's "The Influence of Seapower Upon History". Obviously the subject of ships and bombs and guns were a big attraction for any boy, but I read it almost like a personal motivation book in the sense that to have control over your own destiny you must control the "oceans" around you to prevent hostile foreign agents from blocking your passageway to success.

Pretty hokey I know, but it was a message that served me as well then as it does now just as it has none other than The United States of America.

Which brings me to my point.....

Can a selfless act be stupid?

In regards to America giving up its naval sovereignty and supremacy to a "neutral" world governing body as we foot the bill while the "world" reaps the rewards, the answer is a resounding yes and may very well be the stupidest fucking thing that President George Bush does in office.

Because that is exactly what he intends to do by signing the LOST Treaty which I had first read about at Schafly's Eagle Forum a few weeks back and due to the non coverage almost forgot about until Buchanan's latest column lambasting the President for his one world order skull-n-crossbones skulduggery at the detriment of our Country.

By comparison this treaty will make Carter and Clinton's jackassery in Panama which essentially handed the Canal that American lives built over to the Chinese look like spilt milk and can only be described as the NAFTA of the Sea, and we know how well that has worked out.

World War I Ace Captain Eddie Rickenbacker once said that "Those that rule the skies will rule the world" well if Bush signs this treaty "those rule the seas will rule the United States of America"

To which I will say....

Fuck that!!!

Write/call your local elected officials and stop this monstrosity of a treaty from passing, which will do nothing less than turn the United States of America into a jessicasimpsonian "chicken" of the sea.

EE-Aw!!!

Today We Are All Long Islanders

The Rhino and I will oft argue about the state of New York athletics past and present.

As a man, I will point out the domination of Central New York in Lacrosse, the fastest game on two feet and ancient Iroquois war game.

As a man wrastler, Rhino will do the same with his Long Island locale's supremacy in lycra wearing ass-grabbing, known to some as "wrestling".

However as much as we may disagree on that subject at the end of the day we are both New Yorkers and more importantly....Americans.

So on that note we would like to give a shout out to local boy and fallen American Hero, Lt. Michael Murphy. Its men like him, that provide the freedom for The Aurora to have non-sensical arguments about games like lacrosse/wrestling or whether or not Kenny Loggins deserves to be in the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame. Although we may be knuckleheads we do not take that sacrifice for granted.

Thank you!

Fallen SEAL to receive Medal of Honor

By Gidget Fuentes - Staff writer
Posted : Thursday Oct 11, 2007 17:20:59 EDT


SAN DIEGO — Two years after his death in a harrowing firefight on an Afghanistan mountaintop, Lt. Michael Murphy, a Navy SEAL officer from Long Island, N.Y., will be bestowed with the nation’s highest combat honor, the Congressional Medal of Honor, Navy officials said.

Lt. Ligia Cohen, a Navy spokeswoman at the Pentagon, confirmed the award.

The announcement of the Medal of Honor — the first awarded to a Navy officer or sailor for combat actions in Iraq or Afghanistan — came Thursday during a White House briefing.

The medal will be presented to Murphy’s family during a 2:30 p.m. ceremony Oct. 22 at the White House, Cohen said. In addition, the late officer will be honored at two other events: the inclusion of his name on a wall at the Pentagon Hall of Heroes at 11 a.m. Oct. 23, and the presentation of the Medal of Honor flag at the Navy Memorial at 6 p.m. Oct. 23.

A Truly Noble Idea

The Next Nobel
New York Sun Editorial
October 10, 2007

Vice President Gore is being mooted for the Nobel Peace Prize, but our nominee is General Petraeus. This is only a slight departure from our annual editorial calling for the Norwegians to award the prize to GI Joe. We've been advancing that idea ever since reading about it in an essay by Neil Kressel, a professor in New Jersey. It has seemed to us that the American GI is the greatest force for peace in the world today, and we say that without the slightest bit of irony. GI Joe and GI Jane always go overseas for reasons not of conquest but of liberation, to secure the hope of democracy, and always with the intent of returning home.

Sometimes A Lasso Is Just A Lasso

Once again racism has reared its ugly head this time in The Aurora's home town of New York City, so we sent our craic team of investigative reporters to, um well, investigate.

What they discovered is so shocking that out of common decency we cant even publish the crime scene photographs, in fact we've probably said too much already.

However for the strong stomached and curious minded we will provide a link to the grizzly scene of a hate crime, but be forewarned that it may not be ugly, but it sure ain't pretty.

A Picture of Hate

Shocking isn't it?

Now as some of you may know, I am an avid baseball fan, or is it avid Republican and staunch baseball fan?... no matter, in other words I root for the good guys, who in this case be The Mets, so the fate of Joe Torre and the perennial baby mamma drama of Steinbrenner matters naught to me. If you don't know what I'm getting at then this may clear things up a bit....

Learn From History

Needless to say I am outraged that a major media news outlet would stoop so low and use such crass and blatantly racist imagery to sully the good name of Sleepy Joe by comparing him to il Duce, in the process insulting all Italian-Americans, even those not affected in any way shape or form by WWII. Hint hint.

I know what you're thinking, but Donkey you aint even Italian, you Bogside booty scratcher and you would be right. However, considering that my last name ends in a vowel, I am a former Teamster 560, and I loves me the linguini in clam sauce.... My moral authority on this issue can not be denied.

What I would like to know is... didn't everyone get the memo that the noose is now symbol non grata?

The perplexing part of this entire sordid tales is that by all accounts the NY Post is a conservative, some might even say fascist rag so do they get a free pass for insinuating that Torre is fascimo... kind of like how blacks can call other blacks ...

SHUT YOUR MOUTH

... But I'm talking 'bout Fascism. Can ya dig it.

Has it really come down to that only select groups are allowed to be offended and decide what constitutes bad taste or hate crimes for the rest of us, and if so isn't that the absolute worse type of racism? Special privileges for some but not all?

You don't ever hear me bitch about those fookin' hearts, stars and horseshoes! Clovers and blue moons! Pots of golds and rainbows! And me red balloons!

Do you now? Do you???

The potato, or lack thereof killed more Irish than any other non-natural cause and yet you go into any Irish home on any given night and dollars to donuts they will be eating spuds for dinner.

You do the math.

Now I'm not suggesting that Blacks start eating noose au gratin what I am saying is get over it already. In this instance the "victim" is an Ivy League professor, she is not the victim of racism, she is the beneficiary of it, not to mention I thought that Columbia was a bastion for free speech, or is that only when it involves calling for the annihilation of Israel...

If you continue to allow yourself to be a victim, then a victim you shall remain, and it goes without saying but yes it is the liberals that benefit most from perpetuating this... because a man, gotta be pc, or a woman, that doesn't need crutches certainly has no need for the FDR Edition welfare wheelchair.

EE-Aw!!!

Donkey Culpa

I recently wrote a mancrushian post about candidate Rep. Ron Paul and although I am not quite ready to completely retract my unofficial endorsement I must concede the point made by Rhino in his previous post in regards to the Congressman's jackassery during yesterdays debate in Dearbornistan.

The point that I think he was trying to make is that we are fighting a new type of enemy not united by a national identity but rather an ideology based on madness, and on that note I agree. Although a resounding success, our military victory in Afghanistan did not eradicate the terrorist threat. Now I'm not saying we shouldn't kick ass where ass kicking is required but we need to realize that conventional warfare (carpet bombing notwithstanding) is not the only solution just as our Revolutionary Forefathers understood that standing toe to toe with the Tories would result in failure.

Well I hope thats what he was trying to say.

Take for example, Haditha, where for all the talk of the success of the surge, a marked improvement can be directly traced to the Marines implementing old school Mongolian tactics of surrounding trouble spots with berms.

Outside the box gents.

That being said Paul sure did put his foot in his mouth and played right into Giuliani's hands and strong point by implying that we have never been in danger of an imminent threat in 220 years. That's just flat out wrong and historically ignorant. Of course 9/11 is the most recent and emotional example and Pearl Harbor is another popular answer but would it kill these guys to show a little effort. What about the attack on Dutch Harbor or the sacking of Buffalo? How can you expect to lead this country if you know so little about our history. God I hate being smarter than these numb skulls and I am half an idiot.

So that was strike one for Paul or actually strike two for me.

One of the issues that I most agreed with Rep Paul is that we as nation need to re-adopt a policy of pseudo-isolationism not only to protect our security interests but that of our fiscal as well, and that is why it troubled me to see that he is in favor of Borse Dubai/ Nasdaq deal. You can not preach fair trade protectionism and then be in favor of a deal such as this. That shit don't fly with me. Only Rep. Hunter nailed this question and for all the right reasons.

It was cute when the Japanese bought Rockefeller Center or some Canucks bought Coors Brewery (although the argument could be made that was in our National interests as Coors sucks) but enough is fookin enough. Allowing foreign interests to own our financial markets, ports, and military technology companies is a one hundred percent guaranteed recipe for disaster. America first bitches!!!

So on second thought, am I retracting my unofficial Ron Paul endorsement and flip flopping? You betcha sweet ass I am.

I'm sorry Duncan I didn't mean to hurt you, it'll be different this time I promise.

As far as Huckabee's statement on the tax status of pimps and hos, although I have long advocated the the removal of the tax exempt status for Sharpton's National Action Network, I gotta give it up for the biotches on this one as I am against any and all taxation of the skin trade.

Pimps up , Taxes down

Debate Impression

I just watched the republican debate on CNBC. The main topic was the economy. First impression was that Romney was the most impressive. I liked Rudy's answer about the line item veto because even though i think it's a good idea, he says if you're a strict constructionist you can't have it both ways. If you want to change it then you need a constitutional ammendment. Very good.
Ron Paul by the way, what a jackass! On the question of whether or not the president should be allowed to attack Iran without congressional approval if we were in imminent danger of being attacked he say's we've never been in imminent danger of being attacked on our soil??? WHAT? Rudy of course jumped on him with 9/11 and if i was there i would have added Pear Harbor which everyone seems to have forgotten.
Duncan Hunter took everyone to school with his crazy knowledge of terrorist states and he scored points on trade imbalances but he came back to the steel producers 2 or 3 times like he didn't have anything else to say. Not good.
Fred Thompson bored the hell out of me.
Huckabee is in favor of a consumption tax? What? He literally said that although we pay income taxes, pimps and hookers don't pay taxes. HUH?
McCain? Better, but not that great.

Overall, Romney was the best and in fact very impressive.

Rudy was #2 and scored points with me personally with his very positive, America is the best land in the world, kind of attitude.

Hunter was third and scored some points but i don't think he was positive enough.

Anyway The Wind Blows......

Considering how impotent the Democrat controlled Congress has been and up and until Kucinich wins the party nomination maybe we should give the whole dems as the anti-war party rhetoric a rest, because you know, its not the truth.... then again when has that ever stopped a lib.

Come Out And Play Ay

As Cyrus once said.... "Can you count suckas? I say, the future is ours.... If you can count."

It is still early in the Presidential race, and although the liberal media is already crowning its darlings Rudy and Hillary as the inevitable victors history has shown us otherwise and that the front runner rarely wins the dem nod and that conservative Republicans will throw party loyalty aside to vote their conscience and express their dissatisfaction by voting for third party candidates like Buchanan or Perot.

Which brings me to my third favorite Bond villain and the likely recipient of my electoral largess, Congressman Ron Paul. Although I am not quite ready to rescind my Official Auroran endorsement of Rep. Duncan Hunter (actually maybe I am) there is no better candidate that matches my own personal politics than Paul with one exception, and its biggie.... the Iraq War.

Although both our reasoning for opposing the war in the first place was identical , that sometimes, as cold as it seems, that its better to have one big bully intimidating the other bullies while picking on a few kids than to have a whole playground of bullies beating up all of the kids, but my opposition ceased when Saddam forced our hand and we put boots in the sand.

That being said I have never bought into the democratization of Iraq and that alongside the blitzkrieg on Baghdad has proven to be the two biggest strategical errors made to date. However, despite the poo-pooing of the dumb dumbs on the left... The mission WAS accomplished, so post GWB 2008 with the White House left in capable conservative hands willing to remain vigilant in our defense against terrorism I'd have zero problems with exiting Iraq.

Which brings me back to my original question to the pollsters and the pundits.

Can you count SUCKAS????

Rep Ron Paul has had strong to very strong straw poll showings, has won damn near every debate, and is raising as much if not more donor donuts than the top tier candidates and yet to date has been largely ignored by the media.

Which leads me to two conclusions.

The first of which is a scientifically proven fact of which I garnered a peer reviewed pub consensus last night at Wifey McBeateys....

The media is a bunch of brand name starfucking celebutards that despite being liberal and progressive fear change and who are too incompetent to cover anything besides one named amoeba-like unicellular organisms like omigod Britney and Hillary and Rudy such as you know.

The second being that for all the criticism of this war and nansy-pansy contrarianism the left is not an antiwar party but rather as has been said here ad nauseum an anti-President George W Bush bunch of pusillanimous America haters. Don't believe me? Well look no further than the fact that every major dem candidate either voted for the war or have declared that they will keep troops in Iraq, and in Clinton and Edwards case... both. How does that make you feel libs?

So... They are against the war before they will be for it???

Huh.

Okay okay three conclusions....

I can understand why Kucinich is being ignored as he's much too short to be noticed and the fact that hes certifiably insane (which might be his only good quality) but besides Kucinich the only real anti-war candidate is Rep. Ron Paul who in my opinion is hammerishly 2 legit 2 quit, 2 legit, 2 legit 2 quit. The guy's got a 100% approval rating from The Constitution Party, so hes got that going for him as well.

So here's the deal I will make with you hippies. We all unite and elect Rep. Ron Paul President and I will trade you the Iraq War for the Secure Fence Act, the elimination of the IRS, the Dept of Education and our withdrawal from NAFTA and the WTO.

Okay? Savvy!

Phony Congress

Forget for a moment that Rush is just a radio personality albeit a very powerful one and lets assume that he did indeed call ALL the troops phonies instead of what actually occurred (aka the truth) which was that he called the phony "troops" showcased by fringe left wing lunatics such as Moveon, Newsweek, ANSWER, and the New York Times... phonies.

Or that even if true (which it isn't) is calling the troops phony any worse than calling them stupid uneducated gulag gitmo golden horde mongolian vampiric terrorists as the dems have done the past few years.

I would say it isn't, but then again that's an argument over semantics which the he said/she said doesn't really concern me in this case not to mention that its rendered moot by the fact that.....

a) Rush didn't call the troops phonies

b) The Dems said those things I cited

c) Unlike the Dems, Rush is in no position to directly shape public policy

But here's what bothers me...

The left wing attack machine media will constantly throw out bold lies in headlines

RUSH LIMBAUGH CALLS TROOPS PHONIES

Ooh its in bold letters... Then it must be true.

They do this knowing full well that most Americans get their info in blurbs and if they put it in bold print or the lead-in on a half hour news program it will stick and if you say it enough the public will be duped into thinking its true.

HOWEVER

Here's what really pisses me off....

These fuckin' knuckleheads aren't doing the jobs that they were elected to do. If you're a lib, odds are you want your party to end the war as they promised and if you're conservative you want to curb rampant government spending and a wall built asap to halt the illegal invasion of immigrants as they promised.

Yet these jackasses are too busy scolding Moveon and Rush Limbaugh for being mean to accomplish squat.

Imagine coming home to see your home burnt down and having the firefighter explain that their water ration hadn't yet been allocated by Townhall and couldn't do anything about it but would scold the arsonist in a loud threatening voice if and when they catch him or the salesman that fails to close a deal explaining to his boss that he fully intended to write a strongly worded letter (non-binding of course) condemning the undercutting price policy of his competitor or the surgeon that won't operate because he is too busy moderating the squabble between Nurse Ratchet and the Fat Boy Disorderlies.

The free market will take care of all this baby shit stuff. The New York Times stock, subscribers and ad revenue are plummeting while Gen Petraeous' approval rating is triple that of Congress and needless to say that Rush is still the #1 radio broadcaster (and was right about Donovan McNabb -- LET'S GO BIG BLUE!!!) in America.

America is a big boy, enough of this nanny coddling baby shit and start doing your fucking job like the rest of us.... Yeah that's right I'm talking to you Congress, get your thumb out yo ass and earn your pay.

EE-Aw!!!

All The Noose Not Fit To Print

"There are two types of people in this world; those with a rope around their neck, and those who do the cutting." -- The Man With No Name

What I would like to know is where's the outrage from the Wild West Outlaw Political Action Committee? I saw Hang 'Em High and that shit weren't right I tells ya, hanging an innocent man.... which for the record was their first mistake, and not finishing the job their last.

Whats that? There are no more wild west outlaws you say, well how bout their descendants. There's gotta be money in this somehow, shouldn't we get them all riled up over this noosey goosey injustice or has hangins' become the sole intellectual property of the perpetually aggrieved race-baiting ne'er-do-wells of the Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton sorts.

No doubt hanging a noose from a tree was a jackass move, so is stuffing the weak boy in a locker or teasing the fat girl. Some people are assholes, especially in high school but it isn't against the law and so long as we continue to forgive the actual crimes of our children for the injustices of our forefathers the worse off and a more divided (not to mention pusillanimous) nation we will become.

Six blacks kids arent civil rights heroes for stomping on one white kid, no matter how heinous slavery was.

You have to pick your battles...

For instance.....

October 2, 2007 --
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan -

Taliban militants hanged a teenager in southern Afghanistan because he had U.S. money in his pocket - and they stuffed five $1 bills in his mouth as a warning to others not to use dollars, police said yesterday.

The 15-year-old boy was hanged from a tree on Sunday in Helmand, the most violent province in the country and the world's No. 1 poppy-growing region

cont'd

.... but the Taliban didn't live on no Plantation, and it doesn't perpetuate the myth of slavery as a white only crime and blacks as the the only victims of hangins' so don't hold your breath for any marches on Kabul or front page New York Times headlines about the cruel injustice of moslem terrorism, because that might just make America, relatively speaking, look pretty damn good... all things considering.

Which way is the wind blowing?
