In 2011

[skyrider 0]

In 2011, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address are scheduled on the same day.

It's an ironic juxtaposition of events; one event involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of limited intelligence for prognostication . . . while the other involves a groundhog.

Not only is this an OLD joke, it's actually about George W. Bush who actually did give his 2005 speech on February 2, 2005. The joke was actually first mentioned by the folks over at Air America.

The date for the 2011 speech has not yet been set.

I love how idiots recycle jokes and don't understand where they come from.

see he didn't specifically say that you were an idiot, so it clearly can't be considered a PA.

Actually I've traded PMs with quade about the definition of a PA, and he's much more sensible about it than the hard & fast rules seem to be.

all in fun...

It is important to realize that a personal attack is any attack (slurs, insults, denigrations, implications about their mothers, etc) or threat against another poster. Any such attack is not permitted here. This is true even if you are absolutely, 100% sure that the poster is stupid, or ignorant, or childish, or an ass. It doesn't matter if you think it is true or not, or even if you can prove they are an ass. You can't post such messages here. If you feel it is important to post such things, unmoderated forums like rec.skydiving do not have any such restrictions.

Clever insults that attempt to get around the above (i.e. "I like rabbits" "anyone who likes rabbits and posts here is an idiot") will result in the same sort of bans/locks/thread deletions that a personal attack will.

Recycling lame ass shit from the Fringe Right Blogosphere that you follow so closely to then regurgitate here for your fellow travellers ... is not original. The usual suspects have been trotting out this crap for the entire 7 years almost 8 that I have been here.

There is no mistake which group you have and continue to support... and you can think I hate that group but there is some serious self delusion in your perception on that one. I for one find GREAT entertainment in those of you who have been fooled so completely and utterly so many times

Fact is, Mike, it IS old and recycled, it makes no sense this year until the date has been set, and it's not really very funny the 2nd Nth time around.

NO ...you really do need to keep up Mikeeeee and as they continued to lose support among all but their most feverish and fervent supporters like you with your oh so many oak leaf clusters on that Defense of the Great Bush Medal you earned over and over... It became impossible for them to do.) I bet that was dissapointing to the Bush Boys in the West Wing). BUT do you really doubt they would not have if there had been a major terrorist attack in this country.

Tommy Franks: Martial Law Will Replace Constitution After Next Terror Attack



Newsmax

Gen. Tommy Franks says that if the United States is hit with a weapon of mass destruction that inflicts large casualties, the Constitution will likely be discarded in favor of a military form of government.

Franks, who successfully led the U.S. military operation to liberate Iraq, expressed his worries in an extensive interview he gave to the men’s lifestyle magazine Cigar Aficionado.

In the magazine’s December edition, the former commander of the military’s Central Command warned that if terrorists succeeded in using a weapon of mass destruction (WMD) against the U.S. or one of our allies, it would likely have catastrophic consequences for our cherished republican form of government.

Discussing the hypothetical dangers posed to the U.S. in the wake of Sept. 11, Franks said that “the worst thing that could happen” is if terrorists acquire and then use a biological, chemical or nuclear weapon that inflicts heavy casualties.

If that happens, Franks said, “... the Western world, the free world, loses what it cherishes most, and that is freedom and liberty we’ve seen for a couple of hundred years in this grand experiment that we call democracy.”

Franks then offered “in a practical sense” what he thinks would happen in the aftermath of such an attack.

“It means the potential of a weapon of mass destruction and a terrorist, massive, casualty-producing event somewhere in the Western world – it may be in the United States of America – that causes our population to question our own Constitution and to begin to militarize our country in order to avoid a repeat of another mass, casualty-producing event. Which in fact, then begins to unravel the fabric of our Constitution. Two steps, very, very important.”

Franks didn’t speculate about how soon such an event might take place.

Already, critics of the U.S. Patriot Act, rushed through Congress in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks, have argued that the law aims to curtail civil liberties and sets a dangerous precedent.

But Franks’ scenario goes much further. He is the first high-ranking official to openly speculate that the Constitution could be scrapped in favor of a military form of government.

You know, I did notice that, not that I've ever posted any articles from newsmax, but, hey, why inject the truth into one of your little diatribes and break the string?

But, you know, there's nothing in Frank's interview where he states that martial law would be imposed. I guess you must have gotten that from your fellow travelers at rense, abovetopsecret, prisonplanet, dkos, democraticunderground, politicalravings, infowars, cannabis.com, chemtrailcentral...

Here's another tidbit from the interview, though:
"CA: What is your opinion of President Bush as the commander in chief? And how do you think history will judge him?

Gen. Franks: Well, that's really a good question. I'm still apolitical. I want to preface what I say. Military people, a lot of times, are given credit for being ultraconservative and all of that, but they don't announce party alliance and do all that sort of stuff. And so we call ourselves apolitical. Actually, I carry that into civilian life. I'm not a Democrat. I'm not Republican. I'm not an independent. And the reason I'm telling you that is because I'm going to give you my answer to the question you asked, but I would not want people to say, "OK, well, here we have a political hack. Someone with ambition, who has now left the military, and that." I think George W. Bush is about the best in terms of a commander in chief. I'd say that for a number of reasons. Let me give them to you in sort of ascending order.

I count him a friend, because I've spent a lot of time with him and I like his style. I like his style of leadership. I respect him as commander in chief because he asks questions of his military. Honest questions. Hard questions. And he expects answers. And I appreciate and respect his balance in that he receives information, he processes the information intellectually, he discusses it with those around him, and then he makes a decision. And my experience with President Bush has been, once he has made a decision, he stays with it. Those are all very positive characteristics in the eyes of a military man. One wants a commander—let alone the commander in chief—one wants a commander to be decisive. One wants a commander to be intellectually gifted so that, if a subordinate comes in and says, "Boss, I don't know. I think there's a problem here," the boss [will] say, "OK, tell me about it." And then, listen to him, make a decision and execute the decision. Well, as a senior military guy, to have a commander in chief who operates that way is just the best. I wouldn't know another way to describe it. It's just the best."

I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Wouldn't you love to know his REAL feeling of his commander in chief the Great Decider and his Secretary of Defense after they savaged the upper ranks of the military in search of those who would actually tell them what they wanted to hear.

I sense a disparity in his answer and what his real feelings might be.

Then again.. He was still there ... perhaps THAT fact speaks louder to his ability to actually be political and tell the boss what he really wanted to hear.
