Haitians Invade! Force Americans To Drink Sewage!!

and after monster burgers
Kenny Solomon, survivalist, monster burger enthusiast, internet troll, witticist par excellence, and one of the smartest guys at Red State, has been given posting rights at Gateway Dumbshit. Solomon is allowed to post there when Hoft is in the basement flagellating himself with barbed wire and a rusty set of rosary beads to save the blastocysts and can’t be bothered to fire up his eMachine eTower and have it dial into NetZero.
Well, Solomon has been surfing the net again and uncovered a terrifying piece of news which he logs into Gateway Dumbshit to share:
Question: Any idea how many flights from Haiti arrive in Miami on a daily basis?
…At least seven. Each day.Question: Do you know why I’m asking the question ?
…Didn’t think so.
Wait, wait, Kenny, ask me! I know the answer!! Is it because the Haitians are coming to rape our white women, practice voodoo in our schools and churches, collect welfare, and overrun our emergency rooms? Amirite or what?
Sadly, no.
Read this from the Sun-Sentinel:
Florida’s health department is asking doctors statewide to be prepared for possible cholera cases here as Haiti grapples with the dual calamities of Tropical Storm Tomas and a waterborne outbreak that has sickened 4,649 and killed 305 on the island.
“We can expect that some travelers returning from Haiti may become symptomatic with cholera en route to, or shortly after arrival in Florida,” the letter warns.
It can take anywhere from five hours to five days after exposure for a person to develop the symptoms.
Lovely.
So how does Kenny propose to handle this potential onslaught of diseased black people? Carpet-bomb the island and kill every man, woman and child on it? No, Kenny, a compassionate conservative if there ever was one, takes a more restrained approach:
Hey, I’ve a novel idea….. Stop me if you’ve heard something like it before. NOTHING… NOTHING comes into Florida from Haiti as of this second until the CHOLERA outbreak is gone.
No returning aid workers. No orphans. No nothing!
Not surprisingly, Kenny saw the word “cholera” and wet his pants because it sounds really, really bad. Like, say, the “Black Death” or “Hydrogen Dioxide Poisoning” or the “African Rhinovirus.”
Courtesy of Sadly, No!’s top secret investigative tool code-named Google, let’s see what the Mayo Clinic has to say about CHOLERA
When humans ingest cholera bacteria, they may not become sick themselves, but they still excrete the bacteria in their stool and can pass cholera disease to others through the fecal-oral route. This mainly occurs when human feces contaminate food or water supplies, both of which can serve as ideal breeding grounds for the cholera bacteria. Because more than a million cholera bacteria – approximately the amount you’d find in a glass of contaminated water – are needed to cause illness, cholera usually isn’t transmitted through casual person-to-person contact.
In other words unless you let a Haitian take a poop in your glass and then you drink it afterwards, you are about as likely to get cholera from a Haitian as Kenny is to figure out finally that you have to unwrap Pop Tarts before you put them in the toaster.
In other words unless you let a Haitian take a poop in your glass and then you drink it afterwards
Well, be honest. I could see Kenny doing that.
Damn, Pere, you’re fast.
“unless you let a Haitian take a poop in your glass and then you drink it afterwards”
Hey, let’s leave Kenny’s sex life out of this.
BTW, cholera isn’t exactly the Black Death. It’s fairly easy to treat if you have access to a supply of clean water – as we presumably have in Florida, unless water processing is one of those useless Big Gummint things that the Teabaggers have decided we don’t need to spend money on.

I’m sure we can rely on the same corporations that keep putting poison in children’s toys to keep our water clean…
BLART BLART WATER IS A RESOURCE AND WE MUST ALLOW THE ANGELS OF CORPORATE AMERICA TO MANAGE IT FOR US THEY ARE SUCH RESPONSIBLE ADULTS PUT HERE BY GOD TO LEAD US ARGLE BARGLE
The stupidity of the wingnuts is one thing, but their nutty hubris in expressing their stupidity is what makes them so, so, so fucking entertaining.
Your references to medical experts mean nothing. Kenny knows that the Haitians invented magical fecalism. They will kill us all with it.
SCAT, you pooping Haitians!
Being the smartest guy at Red State is kind of like being the world’s largest gnat, except even less impressive.
SKREEEE! There are about 6 cases of cholera annually in the US of fuckin A, but the CDC doesn’t tell us WHO they ARE! It could be ANYONE! I say national lockdown NOW!
BTW, cholera isn’t exactly the Black Death. It’s fairly easy to treat if you have access to a supply of clean water
And an ample supply of antibiotics. Unlike the plague, cholera usually doesn’t kill you directly, but rather you die of dehydration and malnurishment from the diarrhea and vomiting.
Oh fer fucks sake. This asshole’s mindset hasn’t changed a bit since Ryan White.
Kenny knows that the Haitians invented magical fecalism.
Haitians are the
JewsNazis of Magical Fecalism.Ha ha, laugh it up libs. But if decades of video game playing has taught me anything, it’s that Cholera is a deadly disease (almost as bad as Dysentry) that can kill even the bravest and stoutest farmer pioneers.

I don’t have time to look this up, but I’m fairly sure I remember a Carl Hiaasen column, from years ago, about how Jeb Bush was going to let untreated sewage spill into Florida wetlands and possibly contaminate drinking water because it would be easier on developers.
Note for Tintin,
You mean dihydrogen monoxide poisioning, right?
Ugh, first dysentry instead of dysentery and now poisioning. Poisioning is what you get when you put an electrical charge on peas in France.

Most poisons have their lethality measured by their LD50’s. DHMO is different, it has an LD100. For lab mice it’s two inches.
Maybe if he’s so afraid of disease he should move to Madagascar. If they haven’t already shut down their port.
I appreciate that correlation isn’t causation, but consider this – 100% of people with Stage 4 cancer have, at some point in their lives, been exposed to DHMO. That’s not 99.5% rounded up, it’s one hundred fricking per cent! As in ALL OF THEM!!!one!
Silly Tintin; African rhinovirus can be easily cured with an African rhinoplasty.
Cholera makes you shit your brains out. Luckily, Kenny Solomon has none.
American are currently suffering a epidemic plague of hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and other ailments related to obesity and a sedentary lifestyle. The entire country should be quarentined from the rest of the world until the conditions that cause this have been eliminated.

The local conservative blogger writes regular columns praising the crap you eat at McDonald’s. They really are dedicated to killing themselves to piss off the libruls…
In Haiti the richest one percent own more than half the wealth and neoliberal economics is the order of the day.
It should be Exhibit A against teabaggerism and US imperialism but it’s much easier to blame it on the darkies and their stubborn insistence on freeing themselves so early on from the benevolent white man’s guidance.
Kenny probably thinks you can get syphilis from eating bad tacos. At least, that’s what his wife told him.
In Haiti the richest one percent own more than half the wealth and neoliberal economics is the order of the day.
More than that; if I recall, the local insurgencies that helped oust Aristide in 2004 were essentially astroturfed by the U.S. and other powers. It’s what the politically incorrect call “neocolonialism” at its friggin’ finest.
It should be Exhibit A against teabaggerism and US imperialism but it’s much easier to blame it on the darkies and their stubborn insistence on freeing themselves so early on from the benevolent white man’s guidance.
Exhibit A indeed, but there aren’t enough letters in the alphabet for all the exhibits in the third world of why free-market fundamentalism doesn’t work. Lucky that unthinking nationalism provides the explanation they need; those ignorant rubes just aren’t doing it right. “Liberty is only for a moral people,” after all.
(Ironically, that’s exactly the same argument that some patronizing Marxists made after the end of the Cold War – that communism had only failed in Russia, China and elsewhere because the silly people hadn’t done it right).

but but but McRIB!!! woot.
personally haven’t eaten anything from McDonald’s for over 13 years; not about to start now. That’s how I ended up working at Wal-Mart, y’know – just stopping in for a bicycle inner tube and next thing I know it’s 5 1/2 years later and I’m all “What the merdre happened?”
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November
“The local conservative blogger writes regular columns praising the crap you eat at McDonald’s. They really are dedicated to killing themselves to piss off the libruls…”
Nobody can tell us how much salt to put on our food !!! — I read that somewhere yesterday.
The obvious thing is, if you buy processed food that’s already loaded with salt, where can you go? Nowhere but up. Regulating sodium content would actually make it much easier for wingnuts to choose how much salt to eat. McDonalds already self-regulates: they know exactly how much salt etc. to add in order to sell a few more burgers. The fries are some sort of space-age goo before they’re fried. Some folks would rather die than salt their own food, I guess.
The local conservative blogger writes regular columns praising the crap you eat at McDonald’s. They really are dedicated to killing themselves to piss off the libruls…
Full disclosure; this decadent gringo endorses McDonald’s unreservedly, along with all the crap it serves. I’ve been developing a taste for Burger King too lately, but I think the burgers are still better at McDonald’s. Not sure about the fries yet.
I’m looking forward to Typhoid Kenny’s book Ressentiment in the Time of Cholera.
I’ve learned many things from video games, including that red potions heal you and blue ones give you stamina. Also, courtesy of Mass Effect, that making a female version of the protagonist and then having her make out with a blue chick is really, really hot (something that Mass Effect 2 seems to have forgotten, Kelly notwithstanding).
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November
‘V for Vendetta’ reminds me too much of what is happening nowadays. Well, except for the mask-wearing guy who saves the day.
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November
Have we had any conservatives use that as a rallying cry yet, as they did last year?
Oh, they won the House? Nevermind.

Is there a website for donations?
I’m thinking this is bad news for the Human Centipede.
Well, luckily, I paid my water purification tax this year so I’ve got nothing to worry about.
Right?
Is there a website for donations?
Seems that something tied in with the Double Down would be appropriate. I’d rather not give them money but give them the things they really need.
SCAT, you pooping Haitians!
Redeep de ployjoy – oo bob areebop oo bop shebam!
The Haitians have perfected Pooping Voodoo Dolls. We are well and truly fucked!
Hey, here’s a suggestion for Kenny. ESAD.
Cab Calloway was a Pooping Haitian?

No, they were his backup band.
I’ve learned many things from video games
Per Bioshock, the ability to shoot bees out of your left hand is amusing, but less useful than a shotgun. Also, Ayn Rand sucks donkey dick.

Random fact about voodoo dolls; they’re not actually Haitian, or African, or any kind of black originally. The superstition comes from the British Isles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poppet), and came here with the colonists. A few slaves, when they found out their masters believe it, decided to be smartasses and leave dolls lying around to scare the bejeezus out of them, and thus the association of voodoo dolls with black religion was born.
“Stupid is as stupid does;” the “E Pluribus Unum” of Christian fundamentalism even then.
You mean to tell me that white supremacist sympathizer Jim Hoft hangs out with…a white supremacist? Wowzers!
The Cholera Survivalist:
Double xtra-large white jump suit with elastic cuffs, pair of latex gloves, and 3 pairs of socks and 2 rolls of duct tape.
I’m thinking $49.99 plus $15 S/H.
The Cholera Survivalist Elan:
The above PLUS a space-age polymer helmet and Anti-UV/glare reducing eye protection.
69.99 plus $15 S/H.
Actuall cost? About 4 bucks each at 1000 units.
Free Market Bitches!!
Per Bioshock, the ability to shoot bees out of your left hand is amusing, but less useful than a shotgun.
How about carryingh a dog with bees in its mouth and when the dog barks it shoots bees?
The only vidoe games I ever learned anything from was the Liesure Suit Larry series.
“They really are dedicated to killing themselves to piss off the libruls…”
Unfortunately they can’t even do that right. It’s taking much too long, I’d like to offer them my services to achieve their goal of their total extinction. I don’t charge much and I would work overtime on the project until it’s completion or your money back!
I have drunk but one cup to-night, and that was
craftily qualified too, and, behold, what innovation
it makes here: I am unfortunate in the infirmity,
and dare not task my weakness with any more.
If I can fasten but one cup upon him,
With that which he hath drunk to-night already,
He’ll be as full of quarrel and offence
As my young mistress’ dog.
Kenny Solomon and Jim Hoft together at Gateway Dumbshit: two quarrels, one coop
I imagine the scenario running through his head as he read that article was something along the lines of 28 Days Later with black zombies.
“Per Bioshock, the ability to shoot bees out of your left hand is amusing, but less useful than a shotgun. Also, Ayn Rand sucks donkey dick.”
Is that an easter egg in Bioshock? ‘Cause I would buy that game just to see it.
Is that an easter egg in Bioshock?
No, it’s one of the gene-splicing upgrades you can buy. Most people go for the ability to shoot flames out of your hand, or levitate items, but I saw the bees in the vending machine and just had to buy them.
The reasons to play the game are (a) it’s absolutely beautiful and (b) the entire plot revolves around how ugly life would be if a Randian paradise actually existed.
One of Olbermann’s writers may be getting ideas from the Sadlynauts. He signed off last night with “it’s two days since the Republicans gained control of the house. Mr Boehner where are the jobs?”
Oh wait…you meant is Ayn fallating a donkey an easter egg…Sadly, No.
one of the smartest guys at Red State
Talk about damning with faint praise…
What I learned from video games is that it is all to easy to be killed by a Grue.
“too”, too.
In other words unless you let a Haitian take a poop in your glass and then you drink it afterwards
Tintin, you’re being grossly unfair.
Well, gross, at any rate. See, this is how the Red Staters persuaded Gateway Pundit to let l’il Kenny post over there!
OT, but I have to say that this week has been refreshingly free of gloating trolls.
Oh sure, Troofus showed his ass briefly, but where’s the fake Coach Urban Meyer badoodle-doodling about Super Sarah, the Power Palin? Where’s Iris? Where’s non-fake Gary Ruppert?
Ok, even if I jinxed all of you with this post, that still won’t discount a mostly troll-free week.
Does the Administration even have the legal authority to halt commercial flights from a country because of Cholera?
Cholera isn’t in the Constitution!
Cholera is theft.
Cholera isn’t in the Constitution!
The wingnuts sure seem to think their right to spew their diarhea all over the blogosphere is protected by the Constitution.
Gastroenteric infections are theft!
Damn You T&U.
Does the Administration even have the legal authority to halt commercial flights from a country because of Cholera?
I don’t think the government can ban flights, per se, but it can ban Americans from flying there, which would limit the number of flights to effectively zero (take Cuba. You and I can’t fly there, but a limited number of charter flights are permitted into and out of Miami to accomodate foreign tourists).
Hey, let’s leave Kenny’s sex life out of this.
Two Haitians, one glass?

C’mon Nym! This is SO obvious. An absolute no brainer. (Perfect for teabaggers.) This is without a doubt a Constitutional mandate to spend a gazillion dollars on defense to promote the welfare of our generals. DUH!!!

I suggest bringing a circle in, because that’s what you’ll need to interpret the logic.
DAMN U, T&U!!!
I figured “DO NOT WANT” was warning enough. In fact, I was worried that no one would click the link and share in my misery.
“Promote the general welfare” clearly means “cut taxes for the wealthy.” Handy Tea Party Constitution translator:
form a more perfect union means “cut taxes for the wealthy.”
provide for the common defense means “cut taxes for the wealthy.”
secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity means “no messicans or coloreds.”
When I heard that Haiti was suffering from an epidemic of cholera, a trivially preventable, trivially treatable disease–literally the first fucking thing Western medicine learned how to fix–I felt an overwhelming sense of shame and disgrace on behalf of the entire human race, because how could we let this happen?
But, as I should have learned by now, Hell has no bottom floor, because this guy Solomon just made it worse.
I don’t think the government can ban flights, per se, but it can ban Americans from flying there, which would limit the number of flights to effectively zero (take Cuba. You and I can’t fly there, but a limited number of charter flights are permitted into and out of Miami to accomodate foreign tourists).
I’m glad you brought that up, because it was on my mind. Why do wingnuts accept the BIG FEDERAL BAD GOVERNMENT WOLF telling them where they can go when they leave the country?
As a Canuckistani, I’ve been to Cuba twice, and I kind of like having a country in the Caribbean where I’m nearly guaranteed not to have to deal with obnoxious American tourists but really, the whole premise of the government of a free society banning its citizens from going to another country is amazing.

Look, I’m willing to give the West a break on this one: Haiti is such a poor nation to begin with, and while we are mainly responsible for this, to expect us to fix the infrastructure within 8 months in time to prevent cholera is a bit optimistic.
That said, Solomon really lacks the wisdom of, um, Solomon.

DO NOT WANT means your own individual choice is being exercised. DO NOT CLICK is the warning you should have posted.
Actor, I’ve heard that one before.
If the Federal government MUST do certain things, and something is NOT EXPRESSLY STATED in the constitution as a duty of Federal Government
The problem is that by this logic, any government department that wasn’t expressly authorized by the Constitution is unconstitutional. The Constitution allows for a Navy and Army, but says nothing about an Air Force, therefore the Air Force is unconstitutional. The Constitution doesn’t say anything about intelligence agencies, certainly not on the bloated scale we have now, therefore the CIA is unconstitutional. The Constitution doesn’t say anything about a nationwide investigative service, therefore the FBI is unconstitutional.
The really shitty thing is that I don’t even follow RSMcCain. Some Media Matters dude re-tweeted that shit. Soros-funded motherfuckers.
Re: Promote the general welfare. It’s akin to how wingnuts hate the Declaration of Independence and just never think about it. Didn’t happen.

Not sure I follow. Was the concern that Cuba would just imprison any American who stepped ashore? Pretty sure that’s not a concern today, yet wingnuts wanted Michael Moore prosecuted for going to Cuba in his movie.

That whole bit about “all men are created equal” plus about half the charges against King George would apply to George Bush. And things like this:
the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Which implies We the People can tax the motherfucking rich as much as we want and they can thank us and ask for seconds.
Mostly I think it’s the equality thing that bugs them.
Not. Fast. Enough.
I’m barely mildly annoyed, guys. Step it up a few notches.
To be fair, they didn’t do it right. Not that it necessarily would have worked if they had, but hey. It’s interesting that the backers of failed ideologies seem to resort to the same sort of excuses regardless of the ideological bent. “Conservatism cannot fail, it can only be failed.” and whatnot.
Yeah, but that’s different. That’s the private sector mandating your existence, which is always good, as opposed to the government trying to keep companies from preying on people. When the government does that, it’s always bad, see?
It just occurred to me that Gape Hatriot’s (thx whoever that was) “pigs against PETA” mindset is actually standard Republican fare. He’s no more absurd and vile for supporting the right and being gay than, say, anybody with children who doesn’t want them to die young of cancer or war. I mean, at this point, any coal miner, industrial worker or resident of an area where they’re fracking for gas has a much more immediate and real existential threat from Republicans than Mr. Carroll. Yet still, they vote for them, and clap louder every time a new sausage recipe is announced even though they’re the damned sausage.

By that logic, the Louisiana Purchase was Unconstitushul, as was the rest of the Westward land-grab. Give it back!
That’s quite an assumption you’re making there.
By that logic, the Louisiana Purchase was Unconstitushul, as was the rest of the Westward land-grab. Give it back!
At the time, I think, Jefferson actually wasn’t sure if that was constitutional or not, since the Constitution didn’t say anything about annexing land. The rationale for why it was OK was that the Constitution did give him the power to make treaties, so signing a treaty with Napoleon about the land purchase was constitutional.
Even back then, the Founders themselves were looking through loopholes in their own text in order to do things they thought would be good for the country. “Living document…”

The fact is, lots of Amellicans go to Cuba for fun. I don’t know if it’s still going on but some years ago several American friends informed me that they were going to go have fun in Havana. Again. I had hoped to join them but other duties prevailed. They flew to Toronto and boarded a flight for Cuba. Cuban immigration looked at their passports and said “woops, better not stamp these! Enjoy your stay!”
I think Olbermann is smiling about this. Looks like a set-up to show the difference between MSNBC and FoxRNC.
If only that tweet had been by Meghan McCain instead of RS McCain.

The government can’t build roads? Building roads for the purpose of mail delivery is one of the fucking enumerated powers, numbnuts.
They flew to Toronto and boarded a flight for Cuba. Cuban immigration looked at their passports and said “woops, better not stamp these! Enjoy your stay!”
They can no longer do this, however. It used to be Americans could charter flights out of Canada or Mexico and go to Cuba (some of those were allowed out of Miami, but generally, you had to fly to Mexico). They’d have to hand their cash (yes, cash) over to the tour operator in advance.
Now, unless it’s a humanitarian effort (or you have some bizarre family connection, if I recall) Americans are barred from Cuba, full stop.
I’m going in the next few years, but I have to do it on a European passport and basically have to fly to Canada and then back down to Cuba.
Actually the Cubans don’t stamp Canadian passports either, they stamp a tourist visa thingy. They play the game smartly.
Still, in principle it’s illegal for American citizens to travel to cuba under normal circumstances, and I’m just surprised that this is so rarely remarked on.
I totally see T&U doing this
I! W? N?
Well now I’m convinced.
Please say that’s a humourous parody.
That’s a good analysis but this morning while listening to NPR I had a different impression. The whingnutz _want_ to be afraid. They’ll ignore any and all reality that would violate their deep seated need to be afraid of something.
Rick “Great Hair!” Perry, while complaining about government interference with the usual litany of GOVERNMENT TYRANNY! said Washington wants to tell us how much salt we can put on our food. That’s the way they see it when in fact, that whole bruha has nothing to do with how much salt YOU put on your food. I rather appreciate the effort to prevent someone from selling me addictive poison and calling it food. I much prefer the FREEDOM to salt my food THE WAY I WANT IT.
Didn’t you read the article? Just because they said “general welfare” doesn’t mean they meant general welfare. Geez. You act like words have actual meanings. *snort*
Please say that’s a humourous parody.
Sadly, no. Though I wish it was, I don’t think it is.
I much prefer the FREEDOM to salt my food THE WAY I WANT IT.
You miss the essential point: if Government does it, it’s BAD. If industry does it, it’s GOOD.
Plz do not overthink this. You’ll sprain your thinker.

THINK FOR YOURSELVES, PEOPLE!
The Perry rant about “telling me how much salt to put in my food” was one of the more intriguing parts of that speech.
Think about it: these people are so easily led and so sheepish that, rather than pick up a salt shaker and salt to taste (and if you think about it, why does McDonald’s have to add any salt at all?), they want the corporation to tell them how much salt to eat.
But not the government.
Weird, man.

Re: Obama’s trip, when the WSJ calls bullshit on your idiocy, it’s bullshit.
Of course, Drudge will still run with it in bold until they run the nevermind in small print.
Obama’s spin team issued a non-denial denial that the facts we mentioned are “just not true”.
Sounds like a denial denial to me. Where’s the non part?

Rachel had some interesting insights on this last night
OT but I finally finished reading the transcript of that Supreme Court violent video game thing. You know, the one I brought up earlier because of the Sotomayor-Scalia-Kagan threesome? Well I’ve got news – apparently the thing is a facial challenge.

DKW sells smelly mangoes by the sea shore…

Yes, but they were so overinflated that I could safely eat around them….

I’d not been to Druge’s site for some time. It reads like the freakin’ Weekly World News anymore. He really should advertise that he’ll print anything that may or may not be true, so long as it sounds sensationalist.
Less brain bleachy OT. Remember that thing on Tuesday? And the whole silver lining being that Democratic losses were so disproportionately Blue Dog. And how, despite a rightwards realignment of the House, the Democratic caucus has gone lefty-left-left?
Steny’s getting squeezed. This is really weird. It’s kinda counter-intuitive. I mean, midterms are kinda like primaries in that it’s the base that turns out. Prepping for 2012 by shifting away from the centre is not what I expected from the Democrats.
But that’s a good thing. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m actually surprised in the positive direction by this. Granted, the Dems still have plenty of time to capitulate on all sorts of stuff – but it looks like House Dems haven’t given up the game.
And, strangely for me, on the original topic, do you suppose that our pal Solomon would like to block flights from Nigeria as well? There was an outbreak of cholera there as well, if memory serves, of roughly the same numbers.
I think Gen. Perez was referring to America. I suspect those Coptics et al don’t live here, right?
There are minorities who get hurt in Muslim countries, therefore it’s OK to hurt our Muslim minority cause they deserve it. Of course, by that logic, Ayn Rand, Goddamn Russkie by birth, should have been locked up for life to make her pay for the crimes of the communists.
And I love the inevitable list of Islam’s evil commandments. Do they really want to compare notes? And yes, Jesus the savior did in fact command that those who didn’t believe in him should be brought before him and slain. In fact, there’s not a single one of the Koran’s sins that doesn’t also figure in the Bible – often worse, if memory serves.
do you suppose that our pal Solomon would like to block flights from Nigeria as well?
More than that, he’d like to send all the Nigers back there.
You know, just in case.
Oh, yes;
Their concern for Christian minorities living in the Middle East is touching. One wonders, then, why their only reaction to the ethnic cleansing of Christians in the parts of it they control – e.g. Iraq – was never met with any response other than sitting on their asses and twiddling their thumbs (under Bush as well, yes).
Of course,
by that logic,Ayn Rand,Goddamn Russkie by birth,should have been locked up for life to make her pay fortheher crimesof the communists.against reason and good taste.Just thought I’d turn your hypothetical into something I could support.

The U.S. can then declare itself the world’s largest open air prison. There is a cost for perfect safety.
Did not know that – that she was a Russkie.
That explains a lot. Maybe it even changes my view of her a little in the direction of pity – living under commies is never fun. What a shame she turned that resentment into something ugly.
Well, it’s a good start, but have you seen how many of THOSE PEOPLE there are in prison? The walls are at best a necessary condition, but clearly not sufficient.

I suppose if you’re exposed to communism in it’s bastardized Soviet form, and you see what a tragic failure it was, the only possible answer is the exact and total opposite, in every possible way.
Nah. They need to either kill or deport all the swarthy folks, too.
And probably the Catholics.
And the socialist Swedes.
Can’t have any Jews hanging around either.
The Italians are a bit shifty as well.

Ayn Rand’s “father was educated as a chemist and became a successful pharmacist, eventually owning his own pharmacy and the building in which it was located. His success allowed the family to employ a cook, maid, nurse, and governess.”
Which all went away with the revolution. Didn’t those dirty Reds know that having servants is a right?
“On one occasion, when a school assignment called for her to write about the joys of childhood, she instead wrote what she later recalled as “a scathing denunciation” of childhood as inferior to the intellectual capacity of adults.”
Childhood is theft!!
“I suppose if you’re exposed to communism in it’s bastardized Soviet form, and you see what a tragic failure it was”
Communism can never fail, it can only be failed. Where have I heard that before?

Same basic principle as people circa World War Two – Russian and other – getting raped by Nazism and embracing Soviet communism, even under Stalin, as a result.
I feel some pity for people like her – but very little. Solzhenitsyn came from the same background as her, that didn’t turn him into a sociopath.
“On one occasion, when a school assignment called for her to write about the joys of childhood, she instead wrote what she later recalled as “a scathing denunciation” of childhood as inferior to the intellectual capacity of adults.”

And speaking of Rand…

In fairness, this asshole is probably stupid enough to let a Haitian take a dump in his glass of water, then drink it, so he probably has a right to be concerned.
But you really have to be fucking stupid to think that cholera is transmitted by anything other than contaminated drinking water and poor sanitation.

There were cigarettes on the cake instead of candles.
Her 12th birthday, she hired William Edward Hickman as a magician.

cholera usually doesn’t kill you directly, but rather you die of dehydration and malnurishment from the diarrhea and vomiting.
You need Brawndo. It’s got electrolytes.
People who attended rapidly tired of her prediliction for three-hour monologues on the meaning of freedom.

Afghanistan has had numerous outbreaks of cholera since we started “helping out,” should the soldiers be kept from coming home? Another way to extend their service beyond what they originally signed up for…
… When the republicans have finished building a thirteen foot high fence on the northern and southern borders …
They will never finish the job; they may never start. See, they don’t do working-type-work, and they wo’t pay fair wages to Americans to build anything; they hire illegals.
But nowadays they won’t hire illegals, so -who will do the work?
The party hats were made from subpoenas that were later served on the guests.
I knew there was a reason why I couldn’t get too worked up about Olbermann’s suspension.

Holy crap, when Bill Kristol is advocating Olbermann should be reinstated my world is turned upside down!
Solzhenitsyn was a profoundly courageous man, a hell of a writer and a truly historic figure in that he played an important role in exposing the shame of Stalinism. But after he was exiled, I got pretty tired of hearing how I and my fellow decadent countrymen were doomed to destruction at the hands of the rapacious USSR. When he went back to Russia after Communism fell, I wasn’t sorry to see him go.

It’s pretty obvious to me that Mr. Solomon likes to hang out in airport mens’ rooms and give rimjobs, and he just wants the US Gov’ts trade and tourism regulations to work around this kink for his safety.
I have for some time hoped a serious journal or show would emerge, titled “Fecal Matters.” People are producing relevant scholarship and opinion, but they must take themselves too seriously. Get over it. If engineers who build skyscrapers can call themselves “erection specialists,” you can call your journal “Fecal Matters.”

There’s a joke this reminds me of. It’s not very good, but I feel obligated to repeat it.
Guy goes to prison. First week there, late during lights-out, he hears random guys hollering “Number 12!” and every time the entire cellblock would explode in laughter. “Number 8”, more laughter. After a while, the new fish asks his cellmate, “Hey, man, what’s with the numbers and laughing?”
“Well,” says the cellmate, “We’ve all been in here so long, we already know all of each other’s jokes. So, whenever one of us feels like telling a joke, we just yell out it’s number.” And to prove his point, the cellmate hollers, “Number 7!” and the entire cellblock just roars. The new fish ponders this.
About a week later, the new fish feels confident enough to tell a joke. So he hikes up his drawers, walks to the cell door and hollers “Number 7!” Stone silence. He yells “Number 12!” and again, nothing but silence.
He asks his cellmate what’s the deal. “Well, son, some people just can’t tell a joke.”
Y’all remind me of that joke.

Pope complains about the treatment of Catholicism in Spain. But even better, the man actually criticizes it as a trend that goes back to the 1930s.
I suspect that if the last “just war” the Church had endorsed hadn’t been Franco’s fascist revolution, which led to a dictatorship lasting all the way through the 1970s and every bit as brutal as the commie dictatorships in the east, the Church’s image would be a lot better.
