Cover Him Over Before He Stinks, Boys

What a no good very bad day looks like

Well, the Qaddafster is dead and now he is to be buried after he`d been hanging out in a meat locker for a week for people to have their photos taken with him and his son. I can only wonder if any of the visitors of Moammar`s body removed any souveneirs, you know, fingers or toes, or whatever goes.  It was like a Libyan version of Ripley's Believe it or Not where people had to show their friends that they hung out with the dictator while he was in repose--permanently. It is no great loss that Qadaffy didn't duck when someone put a gun to his head and blew away his hopes and dreams. I do not even mourn the loss of his idiot son who laid in permanent repose beside his dad. But I wonder what thoughts skipped gleefully through the minds of the little boys and girls I saw in line to see him, take a deep last whiff of his decomposing body, and snap a "cool" photo of him.


Soldiers do what they have to do when in combat. They shoot to kill and they don't ask the enemy to drop their weapons and come quietly. No, they kill in order to keep from being killed. But when human beings kill and this causes other human beings to party over it, I just wonder who these people are who are entertained by it.

Back or butt--you decide

Please do not think for one moment that I mourn this bastard of society. I am glad he's dead and I don't even think the person who pulled the trigger should have to stand trial. I wonder how many people realize how vain Ghaddafi was--he had a facelift with skin from his back--or was it his butt?

I'm just saying.

It's a Sharia Autumn

Gadaffi opening his fan mail

The world is better off without, however you spell, Gaddafi. But we don't know who is going to take over in Libya and the devil is in the details--the devil being Islamic extremism.  When they grabbed Qaddafi they did not scream, "Democracy! Democracy!" No, they screamed, "Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar!"  If you don't know that this means "God is great," (referring to Allah, not Jesus or the Father), then you might be a liberal or living in a cave in Peru. 

"There are no gays in Iran"

We see how democracy in an Islamic nation is different than democracy in the West. Islam has sharia law, or Islamic law, and with sharia the differences in human rights are staggering. Women, in particular, are worth half of what men are when it comes to inheritance, testifying in court, and even what they may wear. Countries like Saudi Arabia, do not allow women to drive automobiles or leave their home without a chaperone. Democracy in an Islamic nation means that if a Muslim leaves his or her religion, a stoning to death is the punishment. Gays and lesbians are also stoned to death, if they are discovered, and churches that exist in these countries are not allowed to be repaired, and are often burned to the ground just because Muslims can. Jews are referred to as pigs and apes in the Islamic "Holy Book" and they are treated brutally by Muslims, often killed simply for being Jewish. This is democracy in Islam; this is sharia.

This brings us to the question about Iraq. Pulling our troops from Iraq before the end of the year is seen by many war strategists as dangerous. The gains we've made are clearly reversible and those who have died there may have died for nothing. Obama is likely using the retreatof our troops for political gain and has even aligned himself with Bush, regarding the "pullout," to score points on both sides of the aisle. Obama bragged how he has kept his promise to the American people, as if his keeping promises was ever important to him, as he has shown with issues like "transparency" and "avoiding devisiveness" for example. 

"I'm so cute, I even make me sick"

Liberals see no connection between our leaving Iraq, and Iran stepping in and dominating them. Now, with the death of Gadhafi, it lends credence to Obama's claim that we are not retreating from Iraq, but simply getting our boys home in time for the holidays (Hannukah notwithstanding).  This is Obama's "leading from behind" modus operandi, which he pretends is a strategy. It is a reflection of his personality--remember how small and insignificant he looked in the "War Room" with Clinton and Biden looking more involved. If Biden can look more important than Obama, the Democrats are in big trouble come next year.  But make no mistake about it--we are retreating from Iraq pretending it's a "mission accomplished" like Bush mistakenly made. Luckily for Obama the mainstream media will make him look good, like they made Bush look bad.

Libya's Head--Shot Dead in the Head

Sort of like a death photo

Gaddafi is dead, a bullet to his head and photos of him are all over the news. I wonder why it is okay for the American press to show the gruesome photos of Gaddafi, but not Osama bin Laden. It makes me think that Obama took all the credit for bin Laden, but was worried the Islamists would have sought revenge for killing the scumbag, so he had to show respect for the "sensitivities" of the Islamic nation of insensitive terrorists. 

Gaddafi (CNN spells it as 'Gadhafi', but they also spell Obama as 'God' so choose the spelling you think is most accurate ) is another story. Obama was slow to do anything to help the rebels in their fight against the Libyan leader at the outset, and the credit should go to France and England for their swift reaction to the Libyan rebellion while Obama was playinng golf and Michele was flying to her African vacation.  As I write this, it is about 1:30 PM and Obama is scheduled to speak in the Rose Garden (Obama calls it his "Weed Garden") about Gaddafi in a half hour. I anticipate that he will manipulate reality and take credit--he isn't afraid of Libya, he's afraid of Islamists. 

Osama bin Hurtin'

As you probably know, in 1988, Gaddafi ordered the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 that killed Americans, 35 of them Syracuse University students, and many others over Lockerbie, Scotland. He was a very bad man. This dictator had been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, a disorder most easily diagnosed by clinicians when they feel animosity for their client and wonder why.  His disorder does not excuse him for what he had done and it is a good thing that he is dead. But Obama had nothing to do with it and his administration has allowed the death photos, even a video, to be aired today, but nothing at all on Osama. Perhaps it's because there is only a one letter difference to their names.


So my next paragraph will deal with the Obama speech. We are now only 5 minutes away from his brave new world words.

Done. The speech lasted about 6 minutes and did not mention France or England's role in their initial support, but gave credit to Americans. Obama called on Libyans to "secure their dangerous weapons," which has to do with those thousands of SAMs that were stolen, and he called for fair and free elections, and to treat their prisoners with compassion. He said that we did all this without having to put American boots on the ground, which I guess excuses him for not going to congress to request permission to do this. But had Obama made an earlier move, many more lives would have probably been saved.

You're next, GOP

Somehow I expect the Democrats make this a mighty victory for Obama, but that would be stretching the truth--a specialty of the liberals who don't need facts to make factual statements.

Wait!!! I just got word on Fox News that it was a US drone that hit the convoy and made Gaddafi flee into the sewer pipe where he was captured and later 'capped'. So Obama did it after all--I am so freaking surprised. I don't care if Obama is a socialist-Marxist corporatist or whatever. I don't care if he wants to be king of America for life. I am just so proud that my brave president had the audacity of hope to believe that we, as Americans, can defeat the forces of evil and endure.  Just kidding.

Jay Carney spoke at a press conference. His hair was neat and he wore a pastel purple tie, and a clean white shirt. He sounded tired and said nothing new or interesting--"Libya is in a far better place now," and yadda yadda yadda.
