Holy Leapin' Lizards*
[Read the article: Finding Obama guilty of insufficient devotion to Israel]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]If you go down to the woods tonight
You're in for a big surprise
. . . .
Waxing nostaligia this day.
I don't mind being called a 'nazi' by the likes of e. e. sugarman simply because anyone who isn't e. e. sugarman is . . . well, a nazi. No problem there. And I don't mind being called anything by Electro-lux because, well, it's coming from Electro-lux (like the proverbial broken watch, he may be right twice a day -- but that would be giving him too much credit). Besides, when one resides in the midst of a howling anti-semite pack, the insult gets absorbed by everybody . . . l'etat est moi? But the meanest, most shooterist, most bush-league handle is to be labeled a 'salonista'. This hearkens back to the day when people really thought Ronnie Reagan was the bee's knees, and that dirty mofos in camo who murdered people because they were 'commies' were good folks -- right up there with their brothers-in-arms from the Revolutionary War. Salonista always reminds me of ****nik. You know, attach a 'nik' to anything and you have a goateed daddy-o beret-wearing guy who chain-smoked and hung around with skinny blonde leotard wearing chicks. And all this pre-Starbuck's. So, as the Pretzledent once proclaimed (how many deaths ago??), bring 'em on . . .
*I believe Holy Leapin' Lizards was from a character in Playboy, but I was probably the only guy in the world who just looked at the pictures. Never read a word.

Yep, that'd be me . .

[Read more letters about this article: Here]e.e. sugarman writes: @totallyblase -- aren't you the guy who used to leave the moment i hove into view?"
hove?? Yep, that'd be me. especially when you'd do about 10 pages of writing to yourself -- all uncapitalized. You were / are the proverbial guy that shits in the punchbowl.
"congratulations on your forbearance! anyway, it's time for ME to leave"
Good, see ya.
"i share the computer with my kids."
Jaysus dave, you have kids?? What?? Trying to oubreed the coacroach Palestinians?? You know, those lower-order baby-making machines??And hey, what's with the one computer?? Tightwad.
"i just basically wanted to support electro he seemed in a lonely fight"
Like a lot of bent people, he'll also die alone and unloved. Plus, guys like that don't like to share their spankings.
"i wanted to tell WinSmith that someone liked his analysis."
WinSmith?? I'm impressed -- you used capital letters!! See you really do know how to use that feature on the keyboard. Says a whole lot about your character . . .
"and i wanted to give my impression of Obama (a very positive one)."
Now you have me thinking . . . . a positive impression (as he pours himself another stiff shot of Old Poofter)?? Anyway, I'll let you have the last word.
"that's it. and to all a good night."

You may not have noticed, but people don't grow up anymore. We just get older, it seems. And there's the rub.
George Carlin (a leetle bit older than me) explains it all if you have an hour -- "You Are All Diseased" http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5897849765437265993

We Never Sleep . .
[Read the article: Finding Obama guilty of insufficient devotion to Israel]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Wasn't that what Pinkertons used to say?? And hey, weren't they the BlackH20 of their day?? Paid for hire goons? I do digress. I'm still shaking that anyone, especially someone who is an American citizen would have the chutzpah to question someone's loyalty to a foreign nation . . . . Jaysus, where are we living? On the moon?
goodcelery presumes: "I assume totallyblase hit the hay. I will to after this, but not with tatallyblaze... (~)"
Like your friendly neighbourhood NSA snoop, whom I assume is monitoring this even as we type, I never sleep . . .

Judy Miller & The Hackettes
[Read the article: "Actual journalists" as government spokespeople]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It's bad enuff that these pundits-by-the-number, or penny-a-word-panderers even get press, but do we have to waste our time talking about them?? Sheesh. Tom Friedman. Joe Klein. David Frum. Holly Martins. Donald Kaufman. Who cares? A rose is a rose by any other name. A hack is a hack. What IS scary is that there is an audience out there that these mofos can pander to. Sir, yes Sir.

Do You Say Hi To Your Neighbor??
[Read the article: "Actual journalists" as government spokespeople]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Which just goes to show our (American) belief in rightiousness is really strictly defined by our needs."
I'm not sure if 'righteousness' isn't just a mask for vindictiveness. The need to lash out & hurt something. Retribution. Americans (not all, of course) can be a vindictive people -- the urge to get back at someone. Payback time. "I'll get you if it's the last tihing I ever do, you SOB . . . ". Isn't torture a form of this? Taking it out on someone, even if they are helpless? The need to humiliate, to turn the screws, to dominate, to kick the guy when he's down? Look at our leaders -- Dubya ( http://www.snopes.com/politics/bush/rugby.asp ) at least he ain't smirking. Dick (The Fudd) Cheney(canned hunting, anyone?). But you know is really really really scary about this isn't the fact that our leaders condone this stuff, and that morons like Joke Klein & Rush Limbaugh sluff it off as much ado about nothing. The scary thing is that there are people out there who will actually do this to other people. And they could be living next door to you. How'd you like it to know that your next door neighbor had the same conscience as an insect?? Scary.

Did I Put It There Celery??
[Read the article: California's marriage ruling -- what it means and what it doesn't mean]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]celery penned this dilly of a header: "Electro Spam Bot vacuum cleaners", and the proverbial light bulb clicked inside my head. I placed that seee there. I caused that linkage when I dubbed Electro-Robot 'Electro-Lux after the famed Brit hoover of days of yore . . .
I apologize for that. Hope that any problem amongst the synapses, firing randomly or not, are not caused by moi . . .
