Dreams of My Daisy Cutter

Wow, I've been traveling ... doing justice, stamping notary seals and such. I never seem to sleep well away from home. A lot of times I end up falling asleep watching the news and leaving the TV on. Such is life.

Last night, I had a crazy dream. It was actually quite scary; in truth, it was a nightmare. It's been a long time since I woke up with the midnight dew.

But on this occasion, I saw on the TV that dictators were all over New York. Where was the military?! Castro praised our president. The Iranian bomb-thrower-in-chief was allowed to speak. Then our president apologized some more, and he attacked Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Then more lunatics took the podium at the U.N.. I know crazy things have happened through the years at the U.N., but this was surreal. Other countries were walking out. But we just stayed. I couldn't believe it. This couldn't be real. Thank God I was dreaming. It seemed as though it would never end.

The most amazing part was that this lunatic dictator -- who incredibly was a spitting image of a stoned Shemp Howard -- took the podium and began praising our president, calling him "our son" and all. He went on and on. It was scary, and when I woke I was sweating. The TV was on, replaying the night's cable shows. It was all too real.

At least the last one looked like my favorite Stooge of all time.



At times, we have to take solace in small things.

Thank God that was only a dream, though.

You might think that jimson weed somehow pollinated your squash plants, DC, but it ain't so.

The non-stop side show is real, which is to say, as real as anything unleashed by the left can be real.

This episode is the International Mazola Party that Obama will have with himself on a big tarp; then the smelly denizens of the Security Council will jump in.

Seriously, the goons of the world were just snickering into their sleeves as Obama prattled on, then calculated their advantage to having a pantywaist POTUS on their side.

I recall my salad days when Curly snuck into Kruschev's seat at the UN, banged his shoe on the desk, and threatened the USA with mock threats of "We'll moider 'em...Moider 'em."

Khadhafi looks like a blend of Cantinflas, Randall Cobb, and Penny Marshall.

Cantinflas? Passepartout?

What do you think of this article Congressman:

Schock Releases Report Contradicting State Department on Honduras
Schock offers plan for compromise resolution of the standoff.


Washington, Sep 24 -

Congressman Aaron Schock (R-IL) today released a report written by the Library of Congress which concludes that the removal of former Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was legal and Constitutional.

“The bottom line is one of the most basic foundations of the world community is the rule of law,” said Schock. “The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service concluded that the removal of former President Zelaya was Constitutional, and we must respect that. It’s unconscionable that our Administration would attempt to force Honduras to violate its own Constitution by cutting off foreign aid.”

Schock is offering a compromise to resolve the situation by:

1. Resuming US aid, international aid and ending the VISA sanctions.

2. Cooperating with the Honduran government by sending normal election observers to ensure the fairness of the regularly scheduled November election and recognizing the legitimacy of that election, so long as it is conducted in a fair and accurate manner.

3. While the Library of Congress report found the removal from power of former President Zelaya legal and constitutional, they also found Zelaya’s removal from the country to be explicitly unconstitutional. Schock is calling for the Honduran government to allow Zelaya out of the Brazilian Embassy, recognize that his punishment for what led to his removal from power IS his removal from power, drop plans to prosecute him and issue a general amnesty for everyone involved in his removal from power. As a private citizen, Zelaya would have the right to campaign for his choice in the upcoming presidential election. However if he resorts to the incitement of violence, or advocates the violent overthrow of the Honduran government, then he should be arrested and put on trial as the government would do with any other citizen.

The report was written by Norma C. Gutierrez, a Senior Foreign Law Specialist in Central America. Among its conclusions is that: "The Supreme Court of Honduras has constitutional and statutory authority to hear cases against the President of the Republic and many other high officers of the State, to adjudicate and enforce judgments, and to request the assistance of the public forces to enforce its rulings."

There are chances of Congress support the American government suit Michelleti and push Obama to end the sanctions and recognition of the government and elections in Honduras ?????

Paladin said...

"Shemp" - Lol! He's a dead ringer :)

I hadn't seen a picture of Whatshisname from Libya for a while - looks like someone left him in a hot car and he melted a bit.

I have to call into question your preference of Stooge, however.

The time for debate is over. Let us be perfectly clear; Curly is by far the superior Stooge. Followed by Larry, then Moe, then Shemp -

And what of Joe, you may wonder?.. He is evil and must be eliminated from consideration.

Teresa said...

This guy's a nut. Maybe he ought to join ACORN? This guy is definitely a lunatic. Ain't it just wonderful he praised Obama? And, stressed that Obama is a Muslim? I think we should request the proof from looney tunes that Obama is a Muslim.

Stenio,

Eu não acho que vai haver qualquer apoio a um Honduras livre. Neste ponto, Obama tem uma visão política marxista. O Partido Republicano só faz essas propostas para estabelecer os pontos de vista do Direito, mas não há poder, e não há voz no governo. Honduras não tem amigos em Washington. Obama e sua gangue Zelaya quer de volta no poder.

Dime-a-dozen.

Surely they invite this guy for the laughs.

I was quite happy to hear he wasn't able to set up his tent. Hopefully, motel 6 was the only vacancy.

Well, I kinda agree with Nickie. When we were fostering orphan cats, we had a litter who we named. Moe, Larry, and Curley Sue. No Shemp, No Curley Joe. I think that says it all.

Sorry Nickie,
Moe,Larry,Curly,Shemp,Joe,and Curly Joe.

I appreciate the Italians coming in here and hijacking the thread and speaking Latin. But enough about Nickie.

Seriously, it is ON! You put Shemp 4th?!! That is wrong. Based on the Tailor Episode (where he knocked out all the mobsters while on the rack) and the Three-Story Santa Episode alone, Shemp wins ... but narrowly, over Curly.

Rhod, were you talking about Sassafras? Thinking re: Stooges and all.

And Paladin, the "hot car" comment is priceless. LOL. I can't stop laughing about that. It has taken me to the Pink Panther scene where Clousseau's fake nose starts to melt. Thanks for the laughs.

And "The Stooge who is not Worthy to be Called a Stooge", that would be O-Jay, we are not allowed to speak his name. Guy made me want to punch him every time he was on. We can agree on that, Paladin.

Woodie, you put Shemp after Larry?! You might as well have typed: "I am officially senile." I am horrified. I thought this was a learned blog audience.

Curly Joe? He was not even a D-I Stooge. Why even rank him?

Shemp behind Porcupine, my butt. I am pissed.

Charles Manson said complimentary things about President Reagan. The premise of your column is without merit Mr. Goomba.


President Obama is striving to provide leadership in the framework of nations working together. Not the bullying "You're with us or against us mentality."
That only sowed resentment and hatred. We have plenty of bombs in the arsenal. If one of the nations President Obama and Secratary Clinton hand the olive branch to pisses on it, we can always say we tried diplomacy.


Open your eyes and minds. Whether it be neighborhood, office, or international politics, the game has to be played out.

I just noticed.. he appears to be wearing my Grandmother's Pillow Shams.

Truth, I've discovered, through the years, that certain individuals seem to possess a bearing or aura of leadership. I can't quantify it.

Obama does not have it, and it makes his apologies and deference before a gaggle of international meat-packing glitterati seem pitiful and weak.

Successful nations foster resentments and hatreds. It goes with the territory.

Stooges, never liked them much. If I had to choose one of them I'd like to have dinner with, I'd choose...


Well...


Ah! I really can't even go that far.

As for DC, these are dark times. This walking nightmare is only made bearable by the shared experience with buddies like you. Now, which of you all would I prefer to have dinner with? EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU! Except truth, of course. I prefer to avoid food fights.

Rhod said...

Goomba secretly likes the Ritz Brothers.

Rhod said...

DC is related to the Ritz Brothers.

Rhod said...

Opie doesn't like the Stooges - no woman does - but Opie swoons over the Ritz Brothers.

How about Denny's, Opie? DC told me had a coupon. He's not cheap, he's just reasonable.

Anonymous said...

The Ritz Brothers always seemed to lack the quiet dignity of the Stooges.

If anything, I preferred Olson & Johnson.

DC will enjoy the opening 30 seconds.

Rhod said...

Just watched it. Some of it gave me flashbacks.

I always wondered where my mother got the pattern for that satin devil costume she made for Hallwe'en 1952. Now I know.

Rhod, the correct spelling is S-A-T-A-N.

Rhod said...

Really? Come to think of it, Mom smelled like sulfur and she had a funny accent. I thought she said "satin".

Are you sure it was a dream? It very well could have been a vision Nostradamus style. All hail Comrade Obama!

I swear, I am losing it here. Humorless Truth got loose and started lecturing and then Paladin just rolled right by him and got off that "pillow shams" blast at Gaddhafi. I am laughing so hard I am crying.

That was outstanding. Paladin ... deep bow. Standing O. A tear of laughter and joy down my face for you, my friend.

Just as a rule of thumb, DC, limit the pre-nap meal to 6 Steak-Ums.

Opie,

When I get to Colliefornia later this year (God willing, and assuming I can get a passport), let's do just that.

Truth, you are amazing. Laugh at yourself, lad. Come on, you are winning (allegedly). Your guy is in the WH. It's not so bad. You miss the point. All the world's most maniacal dictators love our president (or is he "their son"). It was like a bad dream. Come to think of it .... never mind, it's not funny, you humorless twit.

And Anonymous ... you run your mouth with trash like that and I will speak to the authorities about getting you banned.

I watched the intro to that clip, Nick. It's a terrible waste of a comedic genius to have him just open like that. So sad.

Ritz brothers? I never heard of them, but hey, you need some youth around here to keep you old farts honest.

Teresa said...

TRUTH101,
So, you want to give terrorists a chance? America gave peace a chance. It didn't work. You do remember Sept. 11, 2001 when about 3000 innocent lives were lost? Or have you forgotten?

Pres.Carter climbed up on Brezhnev, gave him a two sided check kissy. I remember the look on Brezhnev's face.
The next thing we saw was our people taken hostage, by Komine, and this Iran Pres. Then there was a thing called an election, when the people called for some real diplomacy. Reagan's mere presence had the release of our people.
And then there was a little goodnite kiss Reagan tried to give Gaddafi. Gaddafi has not slept in the same house since. Now that was real diplomacy. Real Truth knows someone like Manson will always submit to real goodness.

Rhod said...

Leftie logic is always fascinating.

DC's conflation of Qadaffi's approval with Obama's UN policy statements is invalid because Charles Manson found something to like in Ronald Reagan. Dazzling intellecy.

This comparison is...deranged. Any schoolchild could find the flaws, but not Truth101.

It posits that Reagan was participating in an assembly of celebrity murderers who, by his policies of measured neutrality on celebrity murderers, made life easier for celebrity murderer Charles Manson.

Sophist101 can't see the difference in the essential relationship between Obama and Qadaffi and Reagan and Manson.

If he could, he wouldn't be a lefty.

heh, good post. It's amazing that the only compliments that BO is getting are from dictators, murderers, psychotics, and oppressors. No wonder the left is so proud.

Anonymous said...

You're right, Fuzz. What a great way to put it. For them, it's like watching your kid graduate from college. All of the people they have admired for hating George Bush -- Ahmadinejad, Chavez, Castro, etc. -- love Obama and praise him.

It's probably pretty emotional for them to see dreams come true like this.
