03/13/2005: "It Takes a Village to Raise a Village Idiot."

Since last week was The International Week of the Woman, I've decided
that I'll devote this week to the The Most Annoying Women in America

For as often as I rank full stop on Michelle Malkin (practically on a daily
basis), you might think that I consider her to be The Most Annoying Woman
in America. Actually, I consider Malkin to be The Second Most
Annoying Woman in America. Being "number two" (in every sense of the term)
seems to make the pungent Pacific Islander go the extra mile to get on my
nerves: and that's why I write about her so often. To be honest, if M&M
slacked off on her commitment to be a complete asshole for a day or two,
she'd dropped to the number three spot on my list of The Most Annoying
Women in America and Anne Lamott would find herself promoted to runner-up
status.

Try as she might, Malkintent will most likely never hold the title of The
Most Annoying Woman in America. That moniker belongs to a woman who can
grate on my nerves by just going about her daily business: Senator Hillary
Rodham Clinton.

Over the years, I've become convinced that Hillary starts each day by
asking, "what can I do to piss Rodney Anonymous off today?" Case-in-point:
a few days ago I opened the paper and learned that Hillary is worried about
sex and violence in entertainment and thinks that something should
be done. That something is a proposed $90 million study of media's effect
on children. "It is a little frustrating when we have this data that
demonstrates there is a clear public health connection between exposure to
[fictional] violence and increased aggression that we have been as a
society unable to come up with any adequate public health response,"
Clinton said (out her ass).

There are three things wrong with Senator Clinton's campaign against all
things naughty. Can you guess what they are? The first is, of course that
it's a blatantly transparent attempted to appeal to mouth-breathing,
Jeebuz-fearing, book-burning middle-Americans. Has Hillary been smoking
weed laced with embalming fluid? Doesn't she know that there is
nothing that she can do, including being photographed receiving an
official endorsement from God, to make Iowa corn farmers like her? Despite
never have done a single liberal thing in her public life (other
than naming her daughter after the hotel where Sid Vicious killed Nancy
Spungent and a weak attempt at pushing for National Health Care), the
average Midwestern dirt-scratcher considers Hillary to be somewhere to the
left of Che Guevara - and they always will.

The second thing wrong with Hillary's plan to purify the airwaves is that
the data she referred to - the data that clearly demonstrates "public
health connection between exposure to [fictional] violence and increased
aggression" - is incredibly flawed. Shit Luther, even if there was concrete
evidence of a link between violent entertainment and real life violence,
quid ergo? What are you going to do about it? Pass a law forbidding people
from seeing the kind of movies that they want to see? Make teenagers turn
in their copies of Halo 2 for Ecco the Dolphin?

Violence in the Media was the topic on Friday's Radio Times.
Predictably, some wimpweed called in to cry about the fact that "there are
no movies out there in which conflict is resolved through discussion
instead of violence." OK, Louie B. Majorasshole, why don't you and your
organic pals pull your lifesavings together and finance a movie in which
Vin Diesel tracks down the punks who killed his family and, one-by-one,
talks them into turning themselves in the cops. Then see if anybody
pays $6.50 to sit through it. And while your at it, tell your girlfriend
to shave her legs and armpits.

Look, I realize that, in a couple of months,100,000 times as many people
will line up to see Jamie Foxx in "that talking lama movie than will ever
view The Saddest Music in the World. The vast majority of people are
morons. I've known that for about thirty-five years now. But you don't see
me trying to pass laws banning plotlines that would insult the intelligence
of a baboon with ADD.

The third thing is that, unlike Malkin who is so delusional that she
actually believes the bullshit that falls out her own mouth, Hillary
must know that this war against fun is the biggest load of horseshit to
grace her ears since Bill, standing beside her at the alter, said,
"forsaking all others."

Somewhere, perhaps deep-down inside, Hillary must be aware that ridding the
planet of all violent entertainment would not just involve canceling The
Sopranos, but also banning community theater productions of
MacBeth (OK, maybe I could get behind that) and setting the Bayeux
Tapestry ablaze. Nothing can convince me that, at least on some level,
Hillary isn't aware that eight hours of compulsory, daily, Grand Theft Auto
playing wouldn't have damaged Chelsea one-tenth as much as discovering her
father had inserted a cigar into the cavernous vagina of a fat intern.

Perhaps the thing that a find most annoying about Senator Hillary Rodham
Clinton is the feeling that I would truly like the real Hillary
Clinton. You know, the Hillary Clinton who's in favor of abortion, Gay
marriage, and funding works of art that depict Jesus Christ in a ménage a
tois with Anne Frank and Louis Gossett, Jr.

In her clumsily ghost-written book, Paula Jones quoted Bill Clinton as
saying of his wife, "She's eaten more pussy than I have." That's the real
Hillary Clinton - The Hillary Clinto who could have my vote.

The Hildabeast is one cun(t)ning character. She's reinvented herself more times than Madonna. This latest move has seen her ratings go up among Republic(k)ans in NY state.
If I were running against her I would relay a piece of footage I saw of her. She was addressing a forum and discussed raising taxes. She said, "We are going to take from you for the common good."
Well Luther the math of politics says when A takes from B for the good of C, A is the scoundrel.

Al Gore won New York by 1.5 million votes in 2000 and Hillary won her seat by 500K. She was running against a last minute stand-in because Giuliani had developed prostate cancer.

This is just another example of where the liberal cause has sunk. Howard Dean put it best when he said that there was something pathetic about the Democratic party when the progressive candidate is a small state governor ambivalent about gun control and the death penaly whose major claim to fame is balanced budgets.

I was slightly nauseated a few weeks ago to see Howard, in a debate with the appallingly fecidinous Richard Perle, agreeing that a boost phase anti-missile system was a sound investment. Perle has been shilling this sort of nonsense since before the Reagan administration. His real source of income is "consulting" for the firms that build these million dollar systems that are always obviated by hundred dollar countermeasures before they are ever deployed.

on Tuesday, March 15th, Nigel Tailwind said

How can you say something
is "always obviated" when the system has not been put into the field? How many times (name them) has it happened?Anti missile technology is going to exist. Just a matter of when.

on Tuesday, March 15th, ts said

It can be obviated by flying a passenger airplane into a building, or by driving a rental truck filled with fertilizer into a parking lot.

on Tuesday, March 15th, SirAtededge said

Sticking to the purely anti-missile arena, the Spartan ground-based interceptor and any number of proposed space-based kill vehicles were confounded by the simple expedient of exploding the spent stages of the booster rockets. The "smart rocks" and "Brilliant Pebbles" could be coaxed out of their garages by infra-red flashes.

In the current day, the 30 one billion dollar a throw missiles Bush is putting into Alaska can be suckered out by a decoy built on some long-ago amortized Scud class missile. This puts us in the admirable position of getting in a spending contest with North Korea and losing.

The usual suspects are also hawking the airborne laser, which is based on a concept that a 747 can wallow within 50 miles of the missile launch point. This implies that you have complete air superiority, and conventional missiles can handle the job, so the system is once again pointless. The 50 miles is a very optimistic distance, although of course much more is promised. Also, again to cheap countermeasures, nobody has mentioned that if the missile skin was polished, or painted with some optically dense materiel that would put greater demands on the laser.

TS brings up a great point, that if indeed we are worried about terrorists or rogue nations, it is preposterous to presume that they would pick the ballistic missile as a delivery system, as it is the most complex, costly, and conspicuous of their options.

Right...until one lands in Seattle; then we'll cry "why don't we have a defense system"!

If you get brain cancer, don't fret too much about not having worn a foil hat. It would not have helped. Foil hats were actually a joke all along.

If you think the North Koreans can out spend the USA you're drinking your own bong water. You ever see a satellite picture of NK at night. They must be saving the money up to outspend the US.

on Tuesday, March 15th, Grundy Sherwood said

As SirAtededge said, North Korea would be able to outspend us because we would be spending a billion dollars per missle, while they would be buying old Russian missles on the black market for 10 grand a piece to use as decoys. It doesn't take a mathematician to see who's going to run out of money first (although Kim Jong Il might have to cut back on the Courvoisier). This administration is spending a lot of our tax dollars on something that a) is extremely unlikely to ever work (has it so far?), b) will never be needed, unless c) there are some nations we plan on bombing ourselves.

on Wednesday, March 16th, Nigel Tailwind said

When I hear economic figures such as old Russial missiles for $10K
a pop your credibility suffers enormously. And yes it has worked. Give me an email and I'll send you some pretty large files to look at. Will never be needed? Plenty of dead GIs from GW1 would disagree.
It's going to happen. Get over it.

on Wednesday, March 16th, SirAtededge said

They might not even have to spend the 10K, since they probably already have a number of missiles lying around from their days as the front-line cold war state.

By invoking the dead GIs from GW1, you're conflating point defense systems like Patriot with the Star Wars class stuff that I consider to be such a rip-off. The big difference is that by the time a Patriot has to engage a target, there's no question that you have a genuine target. These other systems fail because it is very cheap and easy to overwhelm them with false targets.

Prior to Reagan's fruitless Star Wars fantasies, Carter and Harold Brown, who had military scientific backgrounds, proposed what was essentially a Patriot strapped onto the bottom of a large fast climbing fighter like a Phantom or an F-15. That had a chance to work so it was immediately discarded.

The closest this current system has come to working involved putting a homing beacon in the nose of the target missile.

on Wednesday, March 16th, Grundy Sherwood said

Exactly! The only "successful" test was so rigged as to be ludicrous. The last test was slightly more realistic and it failed miserably. It doesn't work, it hasn't worked, and it never will work.

And I don't think you want to bring up the Gulf War and, presumably, the Patriot missles (even though that has nothing to do with the topic of Star Wars, which is quite clearly what we are talking about). There are plenty of GIs dead because of scuds that made it through, or even from Patriot missles that misfired.

And, no, a nuclear war is never going to happen unless our crazy chimp in office starts it.

on Wednesday, March 16th, Nigel Tailwind said

It has worked. I have pictures. I'll agree the testing has not gone well but there has been a knowckdown. I heard someone on the program say "People say this is like hitting a bullet with a bullet. It's not. It's like hitting a bullet with a supercomputer".

on Wednesday, March 16th, Grundy Sherwood said

You have pictures of what? A missle holding a map showing exactly where another missle will be at exactly what time, and that other missle with a giant bullseye painted on it, holding a sign saying "Here I am! Come blow me up!"

I try my best not to watch the news reports in our area,but i've started watching the news reportings that's in our area,....

That probably doesn't make sense, but really, I mean I watch the news in a different light, and whenever the news starts to be very active, 'five murdered today in al qaeada threats', 'micheal jackson faints on way to trial' 'martha stuart cut her toenails', then it makes me stop and think 'i guess today the u.s. government is doing something shitty in our name, and they need to smokescreen the news media with this crap.'

the sad part is, I don't really care anymore about the serious part, about what is being done in the name of the United States of America by our Commanding Leader and representative, Mr. George W. Bush Jr.

(Two burning bushes holding up the commandments. The world works in funny ways)

that last bit was an abstract thought, but my point of this reply is, we've become complacent, almost accepting this garbage, because it seems like there's nothing we can do about it. But I disagree, with every cigarette butt that i fold up and put in my pants instead of throwing out into the street, and with every can I carry with me instead of lobbing it into a lake.

Wow, I sound like a hippy -.-

the only difference between punks and hippies is the drugs and the speed of the music, bpm wise.

I never understood why hippies and punks don't get along.

We're all in this together now :D Don't hat us, ourselves, or yourself, hate 'THEM!' aaargh... I'm ranting... this place makes me want to type thoughts,. It's pure symposium. Vive Les Rodney!

on Wednesday, March 16th, SirAtededge said

Don't hate the playa, hate the game of pushing billions down a rat-hole of historically dubious technical merit based on the idea that Kim Jong Il and the entire North Korean high command has turned suicidal and committed themselves to the idea that their whole goal is to land one bomb on US territory via ICBM even though they know that a Trident submarine sitting outside the Sea of Japan will vaporize everything out to the Chinese border.

I have pictures from the seeker. I have pictures of the approach to target. I have pictures of impact. I have pictures of aftermath. I'm curious. How old are you guys?

on Thursday, March 17th, SirAtededge said

I'm 43 and I've been following ABM stuff since I was 13 and found a book on them in a dumpster behind the library. I can thoroughly understand your enthusiasm for an interception having been achieved, but even you must admit it was a rigged test.

The Spartan system, however, finessed the issue of not being able to do a pin-point intercept by using a 5-megaton warhead. Since this is supposed to be a "limited" system to address a small strike from a rogue nation, WHICH IS SO RIDICULOUS ON SO MANY LEVELS, the argument against the Spartan about repeated use in the same window falls away and we could have achieved the same benefit for far less than 30 bill. Except of course, the 30 bill is the whole point.

Thanks for the age info. I didn't want to waste my time debating a 16 year old.
I'm 48. Been working missile programs for the last 17 years. Worked THAAD. It wasn't rigged. Gimme an e-mail I'll send
you the photos. Of ot were rigged there would be a lot less failures.
