Are you looking for the CURRENT VERSION of the Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler?

…or so it would appear (h/t Hot Air):

“Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”

Well d’uh. Quite a few of us have been pointing that out for ages, that electing an utterly inexperienced empty suit to the office of Commander-in-Chief of the world’s strongest nation will inevitably lead to our enemies throwing the book at us, expecting (and most likely receiving) the most pathetic, ineffective, self-destructive response imaginable.

It’s no coincidence that every single megalomaniacal, tyrannical tinpot dictator and terrorist in the world have expressed a strong preference for seeing the Obameinführer in the White House.

We just hadn’t imagined that his Vice Presidential candidate would be making the point for us. Actually, we had. This is Joe “Gaffe-O-Matic” Biden we’re talking about, after all.

So rejoice, Obamabots! If you manage to lie, obfuscate and fraud your way to winning, you’ll be rewarded with one or more enormous international crises within half a year of him taking office.

But wait! There’s MORE:

“And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”

“Our response is going to be immensely unpopular and it will even appear that we’ve lost our minds, so we’re going to need you to keep the faith against your better judgment and do all you can to convince others that we’re right anyway!”

Now, if that’s not a confidence-builder, right there, then we don’t know what one looks like!

“It’s going to look like we’re fucking up royally, but just hang in there, because we’re too damn incompetent to do it without your blind loyalty.”

We feel so — energized! Hope. Change. Unquestioning faith in and loyalty to Der Führer! It still sounds better in the original German, though.

Because I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, ‘Oh my God, why are they there in the polls? Why is the polling so down? Why is this thing so tough?’ We’re gonna have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years.

Tough and immensely unpopular, it would seem. Hey, that’s Biden saying that, not us.

Maybe they really are going to invade Poland?

Amateur hour.

BARELY RELEVANT UPDATE: Or, who knows, maybe it is relevant? We just learned that Ol’ Hairplugs’ middle name is… Robinette? ROBINETTE? Damn, that’s almost funnier than Hussein. We can’t imagine how many beatings that got him back in school, but it would to toward explaining why not everything inside his head seems to be all that firmly attached.

It could have been worse. Twinkletoes, perhaps? But not by much.

    Biden, the gift that keeps on giving….

    From the article:

    “All kidding aside, these guys have left us in a God-awful place,” he then said of the Bush regime, promptly wrapping up his remarks. “We have the ability to straighten it out. It’s gonna take a little bit of time, so I ask you to stay with us. Stay with us.”

    A wee bit of editorializing, is he? As for Senator Biden…well…..Words fail me.

    So the Messiah gets elected, plans on spending another trillion dollars, Iran wipes Isreal off the map, The muzzies take over Europe, Dearbornistan goes up in flames & Jimmy Carter part Duex tells us to put a sweater on burn our money ( whats left of it ) for heat. But don’t Question TEH ONE cause every thing is gonna be just fine. He is our leader.

I wish I would have had a camera with me saturday, I was in East Lansing, Mich. for the Spartan/Buckeye game, and as I was walking around trying to find some place to eat ( I was the bus driver, I didn’t have a ticket) And I seen Actual Hippies in the wild sitting around in a circle, playing guitar, slapping their tamborines, dreadlocks and all singing some stupid anti-war song.

    Yes, 5 live hippies, I was shocked!!!

    Obambi will take the same road that Clinton did with concern to Islamic Terrorism in the 90’s that essentially enboldened the Islamofacists view of the US as a “Paper Tiger”. The never imagined that we would send the wrath of hell raining down on them in Afghanistan after 9/11. Obama is more dangerous then a paper tiger, he is an empty headed empty suit who’s full of empty platitudes. The anti war left has bought and paid for the Obamessiah and he is a puppet controlled by George Soros and Obama himself is befriended by terrorists, criminals, and anti semitic preachers. Do you think for a minute that Obama would lift a finger against a Terrorist attack other then to apologize to the terrorist for whatever it was that pissed them off? (pick from a huge list) :em98:

    I have a son in Afghanistan :em04: right now with an artillery unit. I fear for him with a Commander in Chief that is a huge pussy like Obama. I was hoping he’d make a career out of the military, but with a Code Pinko Prez such as Obama, his best bet would be to finish his hitch and get the fuck out! :em41:

    Iran decides that words just wont do anymore and blatantly attacks Isreal?

    Putin decides … he needs a bit more “consolidation”

    China decides that the Taiwanese are really thier brothers and must be forcibly returned to the motherland.

    So many scenario’s to choose from .. so little time.

    But hey.. Thanks for the “Heads UP” der JR, …. damn it, he’s not even SMART enough to keep Obama’s weakness off the table. Hey Joe you fucking DUMBASS… why dont you just send a letter to ALL our enemies.. that for the first year and a half Obama.. is going to be like a baby learning to walk, so thats the time to take advantage.. WHAT A DUMB MF!

    I know its common knowledge that Bama’s a neophyte but damn .. to speak it? Damn near politically unpardonable…. Well … stupid is as stupid does…..

    @ LC TerribleTroy, Imperial Centurion:

    Lets see.. what will the crisis be ???

    That, of course, is my greatest fear; not so much what The Moose and his Bolsheviks will do domestically, but what is going to happen when the Koranimals and others realize we have a “Peace in Our Time” bubblehead in the Oval Office.

    The push by the Saracens will be immense; Israel WILL find itself in a war on several fronts, funded by the Wahabbis in our “ally” state Saudi Arabia and by Iran, and fought by proxies like the Paleswinians. The Holy Land may even fall, because I don’t see The Moose intervening on Israel’s behalf. And even if he was of a mind to, WE will have our hands full in resurgent areas like Afghanistan and Iraq, where a Tet Offensive style push will come coinciding with the attacks on Israel.

    I see an increase in Islamofascist terrorism worldwide, particularly in areas where Islam is already strong…Malaysia, Indonesia, N. Africa, and Europe. The EUnuchs, of course, will do nothing to defend themselves, and we will not have the resources to aid them.

    Dark times. An Obamoose “presidency” will be a majory victory for the Islamofascists any way you look at it.

    Speaking of a “generated crisis”, I’ve been in touch with my inner conspiracy theorist and he tells me that is a good descriptor of the Freddie/Fannie fuck-up.

    What better time than just before the election to have come to a head a multi-trillion dollar “crisis” that pisses off the majority of the electorate, that you can hang around the sitting president’s, and by proxy his party’s neck’s ???

    Never mind the fact republicans tried to fix it before it got fucked, and it was prevented by the democrats…

    That’s so 2005. We’ve had three whole American Idiot seasons since then to further soften the mush in the skulls of the proles. And since they mostly get their news from outlets in the tank for the Dhims, the ones who bear the blame for this thing can say, “Bush’s Fault” without being bothered with those pesky facts, and the proles just say, “Yeah, Bush’s Fault!! MMMM, Kool-aide… ”

A man that has served in congress for 30 yrs? You presume to know the mind of Joe Biden? What you still fuzzy from a weekend of partying? Nonsense… absolute nonsense….. you wanna come play… bring better logic to the game…

    What Biden said was what he said…. expect a crisis, expect not to like our response, but stick with us, cause we’ll get better at the game. Well you know what? With all the shit we got going on right now both home and abroad.. the last fucking thing we need is a regime change to a radical agenda, with a inexperienced mutt with a “questionable” background.

    Do you have any idea how long it generally takes a new President to get his cabinet up and running much less instating any policy changes?

    *sigh* Yeah, yeah, we get it. “Headway, progress, change!” Cool the hope-jets for a few seconds, though, and ya might stumble across a very important question: In what direction does That One hope to make headway, progress, and change? See, if I were to chop off your head, that would be headway and progress if my purpose is eliminating those who disagree with my views. Change and movement are only good things when the objectives thereof are good. Obama is doing his darnedest to keep people focused on, “I’m gonna change things!”, and not on what changes he wants to make. You disagree, perhaps? Why don’t you ask Joe the plumber? ALL of the persecution he is receiving is a direct result of (unintentionally) tricking Obama into revealing that what.

    Not sure about that, Blackie.

    Russia has had its own problems with Koranimals in Chechnya, and fears funduhmentalist states in the Caucuses—Putin holds no love for Mooselimbs, and he can get what oil he needs from the Caucus region as long as they don’t go Islamic. It is probable that he will have 0% respect for The Moose, but whether or no he is willing to go back to Kruschev-style brinksmanship is another matter.

    And let us not forget that Israel is (thankfully) a nuclear power. I have NO doubt that Israel will use her nukes against an Iranian invasion. Assuming Tehran becomes a glowing crater, Putin could easily influence the process of “regime change” which would inevitably follow, using military and other aid to buy the next leadership in a way the US would be unable (or unwilling) to do.

    Whatever you want to call Putin, “stupid” isn’t one of them. He’s a smart player, and has demonstrated a deep grasp of realpolitik in his actions so far. I may be wrong, but I tend to doubt that he will be foolish enough to back an Iranian assault on Israel in any but an “aid package” kind of way.

    Indeed! Besides, there is more oil under Siberia that is still untapped than the entire Middle East has and will ever have. Were Russia more free and capitalist, they could have flooded Europe, America and the rest of the world with oil, leaving Hajis to hug their goats in despair.
    The US needs to use the Russians’ hatred for Koranimals. Russia borders on the fuckers. Also, former Soviet Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are friendly toward the US and have let US troops use their bases in the very recent past.

    I’ve got an antry for the office foreign misadventure pool. And nobody’s covered this particular number yet.
    If you’re been reading the other sites and have looked at Corsi’s book, you are aware that Kenya has a special attraction for That One. And he has taken a shine to his cousin Raila Odinga (oops. Can I say it like that? :em01: ) And remember the recent crisis in Kenya, when Raila Odinga lost an election and led his fellow Luo tribesmen out on a riot spree costing about a thousand Kenyans. Until That One intervened in negotiations with the Kenyan government to force the new president to give Odinga a consolation prize of Prime Minister. There have been a number of other veiled hints and references to That One’s interest in Kenya, and his belief that Americia must do more for Africa. And you can guess where that might portend. Get us out of the Middle East, out of Europe, and pehaps Asia, and focus our military resources on doing good things in Africa. Particularly for the Luo people in Kenya? What if disturbances conveniently break out in Kenya and are met by the Kenyan Army trying to suppress arson and violence? At that point, That One sends the US militry in to invade Kenya and make war against the 85 persent or so of the populace who are Kikuyus. The Kikuyus resist and it turns into a bloody shambles. (Remember this is the country where the Mau Mau acquired notoriety). That One establishes hsi cousin in control and backs him with force. Since the Luo are a minority tribe, that will be invoked as a sympathy point. Liberals will feel oh so proud of themselves and adventurous as they dispatch other families’ kids off to fight in the jungles. As always with irregular warfare, bordres will be ignored, and we can get ourselves involved in Tanzania, and more directly in Sudan. Darfur has a lot of clout with Hollywierdos who needn’t actually go there. And Somalia, Ethiopia, and other exotic places are also close. We can find lots of stone age minority people to bring over here as refugees, and many new and hitherto unknown tropic diseases. And everyone will think the venture is a big mistake, till Obama Bin Biden, scolds us into realizing it is not a mistake but a noble humanitarian venture. And anyone who makes sarcastic comments abotu Pick Up the White Man’s Burden will be accused fo hate crime.

  39. LC TerribleTroy, Imperial Centurion Comment by LC TerribleTroy, Imperial Centurion UNITED STATES

    Well in respect of another attack on US soil… it has always been a matter of when not if. You know one of the benefits of warring in the ME is that it keeps the little boogers occupied (they dont have to travel so far) and allows US to attrite the harrabi’s faster than they can create. Especially the leadership. But the simple fact of the matter is that Obama WILL begin to systematically dismantle some of the safeguards that have been put into place that have helped keep us safe. So, with that said, of course there is a more likelyhood of attack on our land. And lets just hope its just something that goes BOOM and thats it… right now… I am more fearful of BIO / Dirty RAD device. BIO most of all.

He also knows that when a new guy takes over in D.C., all of the world’s smarter minds, particularly those with an evil bent, will be tripping over each other to test that new guy, particularly when the new guy is a blithering moron and an utter toddler in a ring full of black belts.

    So what Robinette the Hairplug is basically saying without really saying it is “listen, guys, we’re going to be taken for a ride when we move our dumb arses into the big chair AND we’re going to fuck up royally when it comes to dealing with it because neither of us will know what the fuck to do. So please don’t hate us, just hang in there and support us anyway, m’kay?”

    I’m with you on that. It’s been too long and I’m getting too old to remember why we set ‘Circle X-Ray’ but that’s the hardest to combat and nearly impossible to anticipate until you got ‘inbound’. As to the ME, I still get teary knowing that our servicemen/women are there sayin’ “Here! Here! Not over there.” while I sit here tippity-tappin’ on the keyboard. G*d bless them.

    @ Interpretive Clog Dancer:

    What? Admittedly, Im not the brightest bulb on this tree…. (I even went back and read your posts just to make sure) but if you think Im dumb enough to believe “that was your point” ……. dont insult me. ….

    I mean how the fuck do you get from Biden saying .. we’re going to face a CRISIS and you’re not going to like how we handle it. …..to “Dont expect miracles but we’re going to be making headway……. What the FUCK Over? You know what? I do expect miracles from the fucking POTUS of the United States . I expect the leader of the most fucking powerful nation on the face of the planet to HAVE HIS SHIT TOGETHER FROM THE FUCKING WORD GO! As in a COMPLETE GRASP of ALL OF OUR ENEMIES AND THIER MOTIVATIONS. I CERTAINLY DONT EXPECT PRE-EXCUSES. FUCK THAT DEFEATIST BULLSHIT. BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT? IF WE”RE NOT SAFE, WE CANT PRODUCE, AND IF WE CANT PRODUCE OUR ECONOMY STAYS FUCKED UP.

    OK, now I remember. it was NBC and I’m not even sure the material condition was X-ray (maybe Yoke). It’s still something the sandcrabs got no way to wrap their brains around and I’m not even sure I could here on shore duty.

    As to the POTUS having his shit together, If all he does is say “This far! No farther!” and stands by it, I’m with him.

    What better time than just before the election to have come to a head a multi-trillion dollar “crisis” that pisses off the majority of the electorate, that you can hang around the sitting president’s, and by proxy his party’s neck’s ???

    You mean the crisis that Schmucky Schumer the camera whore initiated by his “Open Letter” to IndyMac?

    Nahhhh, ignore that. Forget that I said anything. That’s just my inner conspiracy theorist spitballin. Nothing to see here, move along.

    Wil, ya beat me to it.

    This whole crisis was either the most incompetent stupidity on the part of the dems or was an outright setup.

    The fact that chucky set it off in that fashion pushes me in the setup direction. I think the dems knew damn well that the subprime market was gonna crash and they waited until they were sure chucky’s little stunt would have the avalanche effect that it did and walla!!! A Republican financial disaster just before the election. I’ll bet you barney, chucky, pelosi, et. al. Just about crapped when they took a majority in 06. They were probably like “Shit!!!! Now we may get part of the blame for this!! Oh well, we’ll just have to make sure we scream louder than the Repubs about how it was thier fault and we won’t have ANY investigatory committees. We’ll just continue to scream that it was all the Republicans!!!”

  58. LC Rurik Comment by LC Rurik UNITED STATES

    This morning Ed lasky has a long article about the role of hedge funds in the crash which suggests, among other things that Georg Soros might not have been completely uninvollved. You may want also to click on a number of links in the article. From day one I’ve been convinced that this operation ultimately will lead back to Soros. And of course Shmucky Schumer was the assigned trigger man. Notice how unusually quiet The Schmuck has been since the crash?

    “And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him.

    And I will not give comfort or help to the Big Red Turd.

    To the people that are truly suffering, I offer prayers and money.

    To the Democrats Communists, I offer nothing but derision.

    I suffered through 3 years of Kennedy, 5 years of Johnson, 4 years of Carter and 8 years of Clinton.

    They have all had no balls, and only a lust for power.

    And every foreign policy move they made was wrong.

    And you want me to trust “teh One”?

    Go. Fuck. Yourselves.

    The US needs to use the Russians’ hatred for Koranimals. Russia borders on the fuckers. Also, former Soviet Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are friendly toward the US and have let US troops use their bases in the very recent past. WTF, US allied itself with Stalin, for fuck’s sake, to fight the Nazis… He was a lot worse than Putin.

    Amen. The United States needs to learn to see Komrade Putin as an ally in the ongoing war against the Koranimals. Whatever Putin’s faults (most of which stem from being former Committee for State Security, with all that that entails), he WILL NOT allow the former Soviet “Republics” which border Russia to go Islamic…especially those you mentioned above.

    I think that if Putin had been in charge in the early days of the Chechen War, it would have been fought differently and much more effectively. Yeltsin deserves credit for many things, but he was incompetent as hell militarily…he didn’t have the guts to do what needed to be done. Putin does.

    I do hope, however, that Putin does not continue his “Re-Sovietization” of Russia, politically. Economically I think he will not, and I don’t think he’ll persecute the Russian Church they way the Soviets did, but politically…well, we’ll see.
