- Wikileaks uploaded terrifying footage from an Apache Helicopter-Zeppelin’s War Crimes Cam, which is about as commendable as a “college kid posting an upskirt video on YouTube.” There are upskirt videos on YouTube? [RedState]

If Doughy Pantload knows anything, it’s Burger King.
Armed anarchists marching down Main Street because they luv the Constitution? I may stay at home that day.
Oh boy, another “these are the only five sites I have bookmarked” roundup. FLUSH
Nothing like walking around brandishing a weapon to prove how mainstream you are. And planning a pro-gun rally on the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing is sheer genius.
Well, I’m glad one of the RedState troglodytes is still beating the “treason” drum for anyone that doesn’t believe that America shouldn’t be engaging in indiscriminate killing of Muslims, for no other reason than that they are Muslim.
Mmm, breasts; oh wait, there was more?
So two of the “jokes” about the Burger King in the link from the Corner boil down to “Hur hur, Obama gives long, intelligent answers to questions!” as if it was a negative. It’s always fun to see them wignuts admit that not only are they stupid, but they are somehow proud of it.
Redstate is just really anger inducing. Not only do they blame the people who revealed atrocities, the column claims that reporters who don’t just produce pro-war propaganda are enemy combatants who deserve to be killed. Fuck yourself with a power drill, “strieff”.
[re=549807]chascates[/re]: I read that and the first thing I thought was, why not just wear a T-shirt that says “Arrest Me, I’m a Terrorist”.
They can’t possibly believe that this is a good idea.
I dunno there Jonah the Whale. I have my doubts about this King you speak of. His Whoppers suck ass and give me major gas.
The Weekly Substandard fails to notice that Barry is a lefty.
As for Matt. OMG, I love boobs, too! But we diverge on the whole milk thing.
“Crispy critters, eh?”
Man, way to stay class, RedStaters.
[re=549807]chascates[/re]: Some of the teabagger types have already expressed scary sympathy for unsuccessful domestic terrorists, so embracing McVeigh himself full on is the next logical step.
They might just say it’s not about Oklahoma City, though; they’re just showing support for the gun-hoarding, child-raping apocalyptic cult that was unfairly persecuted by the government for simply breaking a shitload of federal laws.
What do you get if you cross an octopus with a Michigan Militia person? Death.
Wow — once again, RedState gives callous, casual, sneering barbarity a bad name.
[re=549820]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: Erm, that would be “classy.” And that goes double for you, Jo-Glo.
Fajitas? The Michigan Militia and the Hutaree are eating FAJITAS together? What’s the matter, boys, hot dogs not good enough for ya? Why do you hate Murika so much?
Meanwhile the Vatican reports that accusations that the Pope covered up the actions of pedophile priests is merely anti-Catholic ‘hate’.
WTF?
Did we suddenly slip into Bizarro World?
[re=549829]GOPCrusher[/re]: It comes from the same, evil place as the claims that revealing American war crimes is anti-American hatred; apparently, acknowledging evil acts by a country or organization means you hate them.
Red State is posting up-skirt videos? Riley you need to post down plumber’s crack videos so we can stay abreast with the competition.
How would you like to be the cop that is assigned to the Militia Parade?
Or
Hey kids wanna have some fun? Just throw a pack of firecrackers into that group of funny dressed guys marching down the street.
Sigh, we are turning into a 3rd world nation.
teabaggers and other militant fantasists please study the helicopter gunship video and take note. cross-reference please with recent developments in the old northwest, and an earlier incident on the high seas involving teenaged pirates and an american ship’s captain. an accurate conclusion to draw from these several events would be that if the american government seriously comes after your (often fat) ass, no amount of constitutional misinterpretation and atavistic racist hatred is going to save said (fat and sorry) ass.
Mistigmalitia. Because you’ve got to put it in before you take it out.
Jeeze, Ken Cuccinelli, the Capo di Neanderthali, is speaking to a bunch of those pointy-hatted idiots in Richmond on 4/12. It’ll be a couple hundred armed autocratic Pharisees whining about how much they love Jesus and the Constitution. You should be able to feel the cognitive dissonance all the way out to Frog Level, VA.
So here’s my proposal. We get the same guys flying the gunship in 2007 to fly over the Militia Parade.
[re=549828]Lono65[/re]: Eating fajitas and talking bout how to get rid all teh messicans.
[re=549849]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: “Just throw a pack of firecrackers into that group of funny dressed guys marching down the street.”
That is so tempting it actually worries me.
In all honesty, I have to say that Jonah Goldberg is an inspiration to me. My goal is to never end up like that sad sack who’s hero is Burger King.
Well, I just read off of another blog spot that I frequent, a teabagger post that insists that any teabagger violence is a direct result of goading by Democrats, that Nancy Pelosi walked directly through the health care protest on the way to the Capitol building, in the hopes of provoking an act of violence.
Yes, we have descended into Bizarro World.
Thank you noble intern for not posting that K-Lo/Jonah mashup pic.
[re=549829]GOPCrusher[/re]: While I personally find Catholic dogma to be hateful, it’s the child fucking that really bothers me. Oh, and covering up for it and moving the perps to new territories so they can repeat. There’s no punishment severe enough for the priests who did it (some of whom may now be cardinals or even pope by now) nor for the organization that knew about it, did nothing to stop it, and in fact, ensured it continued.
[re=549849]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: Yup. The Legions are abroad in the empire which is crumbling from within. Time to bring the Legions home before it’s too late. Barbarians are forming within the gates and never really needed to break through them.
[re=549852]slappypaddy[/re]: “teenage pirates . . . .”
You’ve got to be kidding. Are we recycling EVERY argument and event from the Vietnam War, e.g., the tried and true “Just Kids In Black Pajamas” saw?
And how are “teenage pirates” different than Real, ARRRG, JimBO!-type Pirates?
I recognize that Republicans are stupid. But occasionally a LIE-Brul will say something of such Mind-Numbling Dumbness that one starts to long for the intellectual insights of George Herbert Walker Bush.
Or not.
(You know, I bet those teenage Somali pirates weren’t anywhere near as cute as Johnny “Capt. Jack and Not Dead Yet Sparrow!” Depp. But then, are buttpirates subject to summary execution under maritime law?
Ahoy, Matey!)
[re=549883]Neilist[/re]: could you try that again and make sense this time? just for giggles.
[re=549888]slappypaddy[/re]: I guess he doesn’t really believe they were teenagers. He wants to see their birth certificates.
[re=549869]El Pinche[/re]: That should be easy enough. Just don’t sniff glue.
I have no problem laughing at something aimed at liberals if the joke is good, but that Burger King thing is quite lame.
[re=549817]ManchuCandidate[/re]: I bet Jonah could fit at least two Whoppers in his ass.
“about as commendable as a college kid posting an upskirt video on YouTube”
They forgot to compare Wikileaks to the Holocaust. It worked great for the Vatican, didn’t it.
[re=549867]comicbookguy[/re]:
Am I a bad person for having such thoughts?
I can’t dribble with any hand. I’m a disappointment to my skin colour. But I’m not president of America, so it’s ok if I can use my hands for other fun things, right?
[re=549895]Mahousu[/re]: Well, only if they are teenage pirates from Kenya.
Also, if they hold said birth certificates right in front of their chests, we’ll be able to see how close the SEALs can group those shots.
(I suppose that I will have to start referring the “boys” in “Band of Brothers” as “teenage parachute infantry.”
Oh, and the “boys” of Charlie Company, Americal Division as “teenage mutant Vietnamese civilian murdering troopers”?
[re=549861]WIDTAP[/re]: You know, under the rules of engagement for Iraq, any group of armed men walking around are a legitimate target. Even more so if some of ‘em have cameras. Call in the AC-130s & light ‘em up!
Also, we have to kill journalists over there so we won’t have to fight them over here.
[re=549888]slappypaddy[/re]: That ship has sailed, sunk, been salvaged, and then had the salvage boat blown up.
Maybe, it would be too simple and honorable if the Papists just threw out all the child-diddlers and their enablers and turned over all their records of child-diddling to the law.
Oh, we weren’t talking about Catholic child-rape? Sorry.
[re=549954]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: Am I a bad guy to ask that if you do, please post video of the results?
Gosh. How lame-o with the uToob link Riley. Even the freaking NYT posted the WikiLeaks link.
[re=549849]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: bet the cops I know would love it. They love guns and death and stuff. Come to think of it most of the cops probably ARE milita, on their off time.
Today’s Al Queda… We want to take the “stigma” out of the word “terrorist”.
There are upskirt videos on YouTube?
And Riley Waggaman was never heard from again.
Why is it that the only time Jonah Goldberg seems even slightly sane, he is talking about fatty food.
It’s like the need to pay attention to anything Goldberg writes can be determined by the amount of drool on the copy.
[re=549972]DoktorZoom[/re]: I’ve watched that video several times, and I can only spot one (1) gun. If the camera crew was following protocol, that gunman would be their bodyguard. Everybody else was unarmed. The chopper crew lied to Bushmaster.
Also, I believe that the usual courtesy of war requires shooting to stop to allow all combatants to remove their wounded from the field of battle – a tradition that goes back to before the Iliad, so those boys in the chopper were just plain kill-crazy, IMHO.
The Michigan militia will take the stigma out of the word militia just like the teabaggers did with their nom de plume.
[re=549807]chascates[/re]:
Did you see this part?
“Gun right advocates are planning rallies on the 15th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing around the country, with even Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) slated to speak at one of the events.”
All you folks in Northern Virginia, you have to find a way to better balance out the rest of that damn state. Otherwise, we’re going to have to string barbed wire across the American Legion, Wilson, and Route 301 bridges and put in check points to keep you all on your side of the River.
Your attorney general is speaking at a gun rally on the 15th anniversay of OK City. Think about that.
[re=550115]Terry[/re]:
Well, turns out the new Governor of Virginia has declared April to be Confederate History Month.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/06/AR2010040604416.html?hpid=topnews&sid=ST2010040604979
I’m off to order barbed wire down at the farm supply store.
[re=550055]Beanball[/re]: Yep. I had my husband watch the full-length (40 minutes plus) version of that video. He’s former infantry, was in Desert Storm, active duty, drove Bradleys, yadda yadda.
He didn’t say anything until the Apache guys decided to use the 30 mm cannon on the people removing the wounded. That’s when he shook his head and said “well, that’s fucked up.” (Yeah, he’s profound.) But he went on to say very much what you said–they sounded like a bunch of kill-happy kids.
I don’t even have anything snarky to say about that video. It just made me incredibly sad.
