15 Islamist Terrorist Knuckleheads Killed by New Smarter Diplomacy, Drone-Launched Hellfire Missiles, but Mostly Drone-Launched Hellfire Missiles

Smarter diplomacy = way deader threats to the Unicorn Millenium.

This nuanced approach to re-establishing our cozy to the world of nations with high explosives and fragmentation, it's giving me a +10 on the "gettin laid by being authentic and real and shit" posts of the past couple of days. I don't even feel like refilling that prescription anymore.

In other news, day four of Hopey Change, Gitmo Hunger Strikers Continue Striking at Hunger.

The 45 men refusing to eat were in no immediate medical danger, according to detention center spokeswoman, Navy Cmdr. Pauline Storum, who said visiting attorneys informed the prisoners of Obama's order to close the prison within a year.

Storum said a recent surge in the number of prisoners refusing to eat is linked to Obama's inauguration and the seventh anniversary of the prison at a U.S. base in Cuba. She said she expects the protest to dwindle as it has in the past.

"It's only been two days since the inauguration," she said in a phone interview from the base. "Call me next week and we'll see what the numbers are."

I just assumed we let em watch CNN down there. I had no idea things were so brutal.

4 Not eating?  Well at least their doing their patriotic part in these hard times.  Plus I'm sure some doctor can be found somewhere who will attest to how healthy this will make them, what with their inability to get proper exercise.  Sounds like a win-win to me.

As a matter of fact, I'll give less of a shit next week than I do now as to whether or not they eat.

5 They're not eating because of PBO taking office? Didn't their satan loving lawyers tell them he's going to close the base and they may get to go home?

6 The Gitmo suckers-of-cock were offered free room and board at our local Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Tent City Jail, according to something over at Big Hollywood. Would be funny to see those asswipes in Pink! I do believe it was tongue in cheek writing as I cannot find any news of this here in AZ. Frankly, not sure I'd want them here in my state.

And this just in:

The Obama administration fell in line with the Bush administration Thursday when it urged a federal judge to set aside a ruling in a closely watched spy case weighing whether a U.S. president may bypass Congress and establish a program of eavesdropping on Americans without warrants.

In a filing in San Francisco federal court, President Barack Obama adopted the same position as his predecessor.

Curse you, Chimpy O'Hitler! Spying on Americans without warrants!

10 What we have in Obama is a former illicit drug user, who is currently addicted to nicotine. The illicit drug use arrested his maturation at the age he did the drugs (National Institute of Health studies), and the nicotine addiction is making him irritable (well-known to former smokers). Please cut him some slack.*snark*. He is a victim of the failed liberal war on drugs. Obama will lose the intellectual battle with Limbaugh et al, because Obama doesn't have any moral substance.Were beginning to see his veneer crack. Obama is truly a frightening character. Are we really going to let him run over us? What a pig. He is going to ruin this country. Stop drinking the Kool Aid Libs (if any are lurking here)!

Good point. I say let's call force feeding "torture", and just leave them to rot...let the guards get the prisoners share of the food. That'll solve the whole "close GTMO" problem once and for all.

14 What? You yun 'ons don't remember the IRA hunger strikers of the 1980s?  No?  Maybe because they decided to go on hunger strikes while Maggie Thatcher was running Britain.  They started dropping like flies, (but not before smearing their feces to their cell walls).  She didn't give a damn; not even when the press referred to all of them by the diminutive form of their names (Bobbie, Billy, etc.). After enough were dead (you have to be clinically insane to starve yourself to death!) they gave that up.

Somehow, I don't think that Obama has Maggie's balls (figuratively).

Posted by: CoolCzech at January 23, 2009 10:35 PM (iafWn)

24 All this stuff about closing GITMO is not going to amount to much, I think.  They'll close it sometime, maybe, and they can't just release the really bad ones.  Same for the "torture" last used in 2003.  They will "stop" this, except maybe for extraordinary people.  Didn't Bush do this already?  We don't capture that many anymore in any event.

This is more food for the nutroots, it is just not that important.

Now calling Fatah before Israel, or demanding open borders with Gaza, are symbolic too, but not likely more nutroot food.  It looks like the Democrats are falling back on their one tool for the Middle East - jam stuff down Israel's throat. 

The problem with narcissists is not that they are stupid or unable, they often have impressive capabilities as does Obama.  The problem with narcissists is that they often don't listen to subordinates who dissagree with them, or accept criticism well.

As a consultant for many years, I found the best CEO's would suck up all the advice and information they could get, and then accept or reject it on logic and evidence.  The narcissists already had all the answers - not cooincidentally they were the worst CEO's.  Nobody has all the answers.

Reagan had a thirst for information and ideas.  For thirty years before he became President he read all he could find.  In office, he was a sponge.

So, after a first meeting with military advisors, Obama orders withdrawal plans for Iraq to be redrafted and accelerated.  This sounds less like accepting advice it seems to me, than ordering a new direction.  That is his right of course, but one without much input from the military.

So it went yesterday in a meeting with Republicans who wanted to impart advice on the immediacy of impact on bailout matters.  They left without much except Obama's conclusion: "I won."

Already Obama has shown a pattern of overreaction to criticism.  This could be simply an indication of a man unaccustomed to it, but I worry that it falls in the pattern that would indicate that we have a raging narcissist on our hands.

27 We're in better shape than we thought with Obama. I was looking at his attack on Rush Limbaugh today (covered by drudge) combined with his beyond egocentric "I won" declaration of why Republicans need not be consulted in any manner. I believe we've got the best of combinations as Obama is both:

1) Tactical, not strategic. When you're the top dog, you don't go scrap with lesser dogs. Nordstroms doesn't compare itself to Sally's Dress Barn. McDonalds rarely mentions Burger King and never touches any lesser competitor. Yet Obama seeks a scrap with a talk-show political commentator? The President of the USA disparages a radio host? And did Obama not learn from Harry Reid's mistake? Obama clearly has zero strategic capacity. He is the street agitator from Chicago, and anything else is just play-acting. This will be tremendously fun to exploit.

2) He think's he's God. At least Clinton didn't deceive and delude himself. He let smart people advise him. He knew better than to pretend he was better than anyone else at everything. Obama thinks he's the Ubermensch.

The combination of these two dynamics is going to give us a president worse than Carter. Carter was a fool, tactical, petty and bitter while pretending to be a good humble man. But at least he wasn't a prick who wouldn't listen to others and thought he was the Messiah. We need to exploit every opportunity to create devisiveness between Obama and Reid/Pelosi, and give him as much conflict as possible. He won't handle it well and his responses will be strategically unsound.

The most telling image I have seen of The One (May His Skittles Never get Wet) is one where his Grandmother, facing away from the camera, is giving him a very loving hug. He is looking at the camera and does not look like he is returning the love. He looks distracted.

33 re Obama's narcissism.

All very true, and the contrast with Reagan struck me, too. Paraphrasing here, can't remember the exact words, but it was something like "I'm not up here tonight because I think I've got all the ideas; I'm here because I think you do." Reagan campaigning.

As for Obama, I'm expecting his "malaise" speech in 2010. I'm guessing it will be "cynicism" that he bitches about.

Posted by: arhooley at January 23, 2009 11:02 PM (4QyHt)

34 31 - Narcissists are pretty easy to demolish as long as you can separate them from their power base. 24's comments were insightful.

We need to give this guy full offense and provide it early and consistent. Most narcissists I've dealt with can only sustain a defense for so long. They're not used to being challenged. Indeed, Obama has been glowing in total positive attention for more than two years. He's to the point of believing his destiny. We need to shatter that immediately and make him feel isolated.

As long as he feels safe and unchallenged, he is one of the greatest dangers our nation faces. Too many controls have been stripped and the current economic meltdown makes that even worse. We have a news media that would join whatever cause he advocates. We need to make him play defense, to which he'll soon retreat. Let him go lecture to Europe for four years and be a figurehead. But the only way that happens is if we confront him full-on now. From the initial reactions of the Republicans in Congress, I'm encouraged (shockingly). The last thing they should do is embrace fool McCain's "let's get along and be bipartisan, helping our dear leader" idiocy. Politics is war, so let's bring it to them.

Obviously we need a show trial to investigate the Obama regime for perpetrating these ongoing deadly missile attacks that are indiscriminately and unlawfully killing civilians, as well as the conditions at Guantanamo that are so bad that they have driven the prisoners to such desperation that they are risking their lives in a hunger strike, as well as the Obama regime's support for establishing a program of eavesdropping on Americans without warrants.

Congressman Conyers, where are you?  He was just here a minute ago talking about a show trial for the Bush administration.  Hello?  Congressman Conyers, where did you go?  Hello?  Hey Chris Matthews, where did Conyers go?  Chris?  Hey Chris!  Where'd you go?  Geez, they were here a minute ago.

40 You are right HH. 

The normal state of the narcissist is one in which they believe they have overwhelming capability, belong in the company of the elite and are destined to achieve greatness.

In some cases, even the existence of other views is enough to cause stress. The narcissist cannot be wrong, or fail, so the critics must be attacked and neutralized.

One can already pick this up with Obama's sarcasm and derision of Rush, Sean and Fox News. He has already gone much farther than other Democrats with this.  The real stress though will come with the first real criticism from the NYT or Washington Post.

Today he can dismiss his critics as "right wing crackpots", but if criticism becomes more general, it will shake him to his very core.

46 Robert, t and Dave C:  So what's the next move? I talk to Rep. Steve King (R...nearly libertarian, Iowa) periodically and he's probably able to sustain some offense. Poor guy had to apologize for his joke about one of the terrorists dying and discovering the 72 virgins were Helen Thomas.

But outside of people like him willing to play hardball, I don't have a sense for where the party leadership is on fighting for their life (and their country's). I see the same factor daily at a global financial company that has some serious issues we need to address, but the upper level execs don't believe in black swans. "Hey, we haven't been hit yet, so we're immune" thoughts give them comfort until the big one hits. Is the Rep. party still in that denial stage? When I got McCain's email, I almost switched my registration that day. That loser needs to be cast aside as a sunk cost.

I'm eager to hear from someone here how we play full-out offense and engage others to do so. It's the right solution for Obama, as a true narcissist can't handle the shattering of his pretend reality. Once the unicorns are recognized as nothing more than old, ugly mules, he'll retreat. He'll spend his time trying to find peace for Hamas and other fools errands. Is there anyone out there that's organized and capable of this fight?

Posted by: HatlessHessian at January 24, 2009 12:02 AM (3/V8w)

47 Dave C.

I'm not sure I know.  I do know that narcissists have a hard time coming to terms with failure or even perceived failure.  They cannot fail, so when faced with it there is an internal contradiction and often rage results.

Example:  A high executive lost a huge company account.  He started throwing office chairs against a wall, breaking them.  The next day, all the women quit.

Others have been known to enter a temporary trance-like depressive state.

There are different shapes and degrees, we need an expert.

". . .give this guy full offense and provide it early and consistent."

and

"He's to the point of believing his destiny. We need to shatter that immediately and make him feel isolated."

Mostly agreed, bur the problem is that Obama has not yet done anything. He needs time to reveal his plans and policies in a publicly clear and unmistakable way.

I think the bailout is an excellent vehicle for exposing his inability and lack of judgement. Recall that he had several low-stress years to spend $150million, with Ayres as his mentor, and has exactly nothing to show for it. No improvements, no success of any kind.

Get the bailout large enough, with too many of the wrong people getting money (and preferably a few getting bonuses), and the bailout will be revealed as a fraud.

Iraq is another opportunity. We should leave as our generals recommend, leaving behind a strong Iraq. There is a high probability that Iran will subvert the current Iraqi regime, and possibly even absorb parts of Iraq. If we’ve left too soon (or perhaps even on schedule) and enough time has expired, this isn’t our problem (it will be an Arab-Iranian problem), and we should not go back in until both sides have spent some serious money and blood trying to sort things out. Bush was successful and had the right policies, the failure will reflect on Obama.

This sort of approach allows Congress to defend against bad policies, while forcing Obama to make decisions / create good solutions and take action, two things to which he’s not accustomed, and probably not very capable.

Don't know from narcissism but I do know Obama is conflicted about his blackness/whiteness. His race heredity has been, and will be, with him for the rest of his life. From my perspective, this man has always wondered exactly "who" he is. He matriculates fine amongst his white worshippers, but in the back of his mind is Rev. Jeremiah's "don't trust whitey" indoctrination.

Bouncing back and forth between his white and black brethren will ultimately be his undoing.

Unfortunately that doesn't bode well for anyone of any race, in this nation.

'Don't know from narcissism but I do know Obama is conflicted about his blackness/whiteness.'

You can tell it from his own writings. He is deeply psychologically disturbed. He hates his white mother, she abandoned him. But the only thing black about him is his skin color.

And his dad, who also abandoned him. He never knew his dad. He spent most of his life searching for a father figure. The only thing he has from him is his skin color.

He has success, but his skin color sets him apart. He is of color, but his mannerisms, his upbringing, his intelligence and everything else sets him apart from that.

It is not going to be good.

I read an article in GQ or some other gay magazine about a guy who repairs "Real Dolls" in Davis, CA.  Perhaps that is where Pelosi goes to get repairs and maintenance on a regular basis.  It is just a short drive donw I-80 from her home district, and from what I read the guy works wonders with plastic and silicone.

I know how frustrated they must feel!  It's 4 days now, and my gas tank is still half empty.  If I had a mortgage payment, that would probably not be made either.

At this rate I may become sceptical if the "Messiah."

70 Such treatment of non-uniformed, stateless terrorists. I wonder if they would trade places with any other prisoners of war, at any time, in any place, in the history of the world.

We're finished as a nation. We're now France, but without the proud spine. Despite the various historical inaccuracies or flaws of the film, this whole thing puts me in mind of a scene in "Cromwell" with Richard Harris. Just before he prorogues Parliament and becomes Lord Protector, he declared before the decadent House, "An immovable Parliament is as obnoxious as an immovable King." Seems to me we have both, today. But we won't turn out as well as Cromwell's England... and that's saying something.

Indeed, Mr. Orwell.  We don't conduct warfare any longer.  We now practice "lawfare."  Rich assholes from Harvard and Yale take the side of our enemy at every turn.  To think that scumbags who should not be given ANY protection by the Geneva Convention are treated so well while our own soldiers who have been captured in the GWOT have been beheded makes me freaking sick.

Posted by: PDizzle at January 24, 2009 03:24 AM (5DhtJ)

72 I wouldn't mind so much the lawfare aspect of it were it evenly applied. And I do understand the desire to minimize the awesome power of the state and to protect civil liberties. I am, after all, a conservative, and these are issues at the heart of conservativism.

But the fact is, the attempt to endow our enemies with the civil liberties of our citizens is unprecedented in human history. And quite obviously ill advised. I'm reminded that Tom Clancy wrote Patriot Games in 1987 and referenced that one goal of a terrorist was to use its civilized institutions against itself to lead to its own destruction. The man is prescient in more ways than most recognize when it comes to terrorism.

I just found out the governor of my state has volunteered to receive prisoners from Gitmo. State legislators from both parties are going to fight this.

The president would be dissmissed for a fool, were he not so dangerous. It's all not in my latest blogpost, "Diane Lane Is Smokin' Hot".

WASHINGTON – Diplomacy now trumps defense as the main instrument of American foreign policy.

At least that is the intent that President Barack Obama and his change-minded secretary of state, Hillary Rodham Clinton, spelled out on their first days. They made clear that the military will be a prominent — but no longer dominant — tool for achieving U.S. goals abroad.


According to the AP firing missiles into homes is diplomacy over defense. All praise the prince of world peace.

82 According to the AP firing missiles into homes is diplomacy over defense. All praise the prince of world peace.

This is probably what the Obama administration will be doing: pretty much the same things as the Bush administration, all the while claming they're "putting diplomacy first."

They forbid waterboarding, with an exception clause for "certain, narrowly-defined, extreme cases" -- which is exactly the Bush policy.

And let's see if GTMO is really closed at the end of a year. My guess is that as the one year deadline gets closer, Obama will start to backpedal.

Posted by: OregonMuse at January 24, 2009 12:59 PM (XUV9W)

83 And if they all die of their hunger strikes that would pretty much make closing Gitmo or trying them moot. Not that there's anything wrong with two hundred thirty terrorists becoming room temperature.

87 #14 Bush Derangement Syndrome is a mild feeling of malaise compared to the TDS felt by British lefties. To this day, they publish books like "Could We Have Stopped Margaret Thatcher?"

88 NEW YORK – In 1973, a young terrorist named Khalid Duhham Al-Jawary entered the United States and quickly began plotting an audacious attack in New York City.

The audacity of terrorism?

He built three powerful bombs — bombs powerful enough to kill, maim and destroy — and put them in rental cars scattered around town, near Israeli targets.
In less than a month, the 63-year-old Al-Jawary is expected to be released. He will likely be deported; where to is anybody's guess. The shadowy figure had so many aliases it's almost impossible to know which country is his true homeland.

But an Associated Press investigation — based on recently declassified documents, extensive court records, CIA investigative notes and interviews with former intelligence officials — reveals publicly for the first time Al-Jawary's deep involvement in terrorism beyond the plot that led to his conviction.

Now the AP (All Pinkos) is doing investigations into terrorists. What's next? North Korea is not a socialist utopia.
