With John Kerry's standard mastery of the English language, he completely insulted our military. But, you must remember, he was only in the military for a fleeting moment and was discharged when he set the World Record for shortest length of time ever needed to receive three (3) Purple Hearts. Having only the chance to actually meet seven (7) other people in the length of time he served, he can only base his opinion on our servicemen and women on his own intelligence, which every single human knows is severely lacking.
But wait, he does know Al Gore and maybe that is who he was basing his opinion on. What about Murtha? And maybe he knows that Hilary tried to join the Marines and he's counting her too. What about Conyers, Rangel, and Cleland? Don't forget Teddy Kennedy, Fritz Hollings, Daschle, Bonior, and Little Dick Gephardt. Let us please not forget all of those "Winter Soldiers" and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War that Kerry served alongside.
Yea, I can see how he would make those comments based on the people he knows that have served.
Smarter people than me comment HERE.
Update: Bean (Lt. USAF, by the way) wants references to his past comments about what he thinks of our military and about his Purple Hearts. She was in college during his run for the Presidency in 2004, so she only knows that he is an absolutely great guy that all of her professors wanted to win. And a veteran to boot!
Here goes...Kerry's statement before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, April 22, 1971.
I would like to talk, representing all those veterans, and say that several months ago in Detroit, we had an investigation at which over 150 honorably discharged and many very highly decorated veterans testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia, not isolated incidents but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command....
They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.
And finally, his Purple Hearts, Kerry received his first injury on December 2, 1968 in the arm on his first day of action. It required no sutures or missed duty.
His second injury was received on February 20, 1969. This injury was received from his tossing a grenade into a pile of rice. No report can be found to substantiate the fact that again no sutures were required and he missed no duty.
Finally, with his third injury, he actually got hurt when a mine exploded near his boat on March 13, 1969. He actually got a Band-Aid to cover this gusher. Again, no missed duty.
He requested a transfer out of Vietnam based on these three "wounds." And to add insult to injury, he STILL has not signed the 180 release form to allow his military records into public domain even after he promised to do just that when he was running for President and violating the Constitution by not stepping down as Senator, by the way.
The National Archives provided the Boston Globe with a Navy "instruction" document that formed the basis for Kerry's request. The instruction, titled 1300.39, says that a Naval officer who requires hospitalization on two separate occasions, or who receives three wounds "regardless of the nature of the wounds," can ask a superior officer to request a reassignment. The instruction makes clear the reassignment is not automatic. It says that the reassignment "will be determined after consideration of his physical classification for duty and on an individual basis."Because Kerry's wounds were not considered serious, his reassignment appears to have been made on an individual basis. Moreover, the instruction makes clear that Kerry could have asked that any reassignment be waived.The bottom line is that Kerry could have remained but he chose to seek an early transfer .
Yea, he bailed on the real Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines.

The Start of Football Season
As all sports fans are aware, football season starts right after the conclusion of the World Series. Bring on the football, but first let's discuss the Series.
Okay, we all know that the Designated Hitter is gay. That makes all American League teams and their fans gay by default. However, I kinda like the A's, so I'm only partially gay. The main reason that I like the A's is, well, because I like folks such as Billy Beane that overcome obstacles and persevere. HERE's an article that I penned discussing the things that are important to remember regarding payroll.
So, Detroit and St. Louis were pretty evenly matched for payroll. Detroit was heavily favored because my Cards kinda limped into the Playoffs and the Series. Boy, were the odds makers wrong. Detroit couldn't have choked more if they were Greg Norman playing at Augusta with Nick Faldo on his ass.
And on to the MVP. David Eckstein? You have to be kidding me. This guy is flat out BAD at baseball. I am sure that you will hear crazy stories from La Russa, Jim Rome, and every sports writer about how this is the toughest guy to ever wear a uniform, but he isn't. Let's look at the numbers for just the Series and see if we can figure out how this guy won the MVP.
Here's what he did in the Playoffs up until Game Four of the Series. .185/.290/.259, 1 XBH. For you uneducated in the realm of statistics in baseball, that represents Batting Average / On Base Percentage / Slugging with ONE extra base hit and his numbers tell you that he sucks to monumental proportions. Not only does he blow at the plate, he is at best a mediocre fielder. His throws to first from shortstop routinely have to be cut off by the pitcher. Read THIS from Ken Tremendous. I laughed my ass off. People in the know HATE Eckstein.
Okay, who is the R E A L MVP? Good question. The answer? Just damn near anyone else. I say Scott Rolen first, with Jim Edmonds in second, Yadier Molina third, everyone else fourth, Eckstein fifth ahead of only Encarnacion (who produced a new level of suck for the Series). Just look at the Box Scores and tell me how Eckstein wins MVP?
Now, about the ratings. Yes, this was the lowest ranked Series ever for viewing public, but remember, the only sporting event that outranks this series is the Super Bowl. This year's Series pulled in a 10.1 average share which means something or another. The NBA Championship only pulled an 8, World Cup Championship a 7.4, and the hockey championship a lowly 2.1.
I have produced one of my patented graphics to prove my point, but this most expensive Blogger software will not allow me to upload right now. Keep coming back and it will appear soon, baby. Dammit, straight to Hell.
UPDATE: Blogger will not let me upload my graphics, so we will post the stats here. I know these are just BA stats, but they tell the whole damn story. Rolen played all games better than Eckstein. ALL GAMES BETTER.
Game 1
Eckstein .000
Rolen .500
Game 2
Eckstein .000
Rolen .500
Game 3
Eckstein .154
Rolen .417
Game 4
Eckstein .333 (He actually reached on two errors, but they were scored as hits anyway.)
Rolen .438
Game 5
Eckstein .364 (Again, reached on an error, but actually got an RBI and hit scored.)
Rolen .421

A Two Dogs Beatdown
While commuting to work this morning, the local sports radio talent was talking about Rush Limbaugh making fun of Marty McFly. It's very, very easy to make fun of a three foot tall fifty year old man, but not because of his Parkinson's Disease. Michael J. Fox is having a rough go at life right now, but Fox is dreadfully wrong in his comments trying to get MORE government spending for embryonic stem cell research. All we need now is someone to suggest more spending on breast cancer research, AIDS research, or maybe condom research.
HERE's my take on the issue from May of 2005. Damn, I am so far ahead of my time it's unreal. Oh, and I do not listen to Rush anymore, not since about 1995. He isn't funny to me anymore and there are too many commercials. Just saying. Not to mention, he hates Black people, or so I've heard from Black people that have never listened to his program, Bean.
Dammit, read the article that I linked above, Gomer. The BLUE or ORANGE one......

Domestic Violence
From a read of the Jackson Free Press today, I have learned some surprising statistics concerning domestic violence. See if these stats seem feasible to you. No offense, but they seem incredible to me.
1. One in four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime.
2. For homicides in which the victim to offender relationship could be identified, 100% of female homicide victims were murdered by someone they knew in 2003.
3. Only 24% of rape or sexual assault is reported.
4. 40% of gay and bisexual men will experience abuse at the hands of an intimate partner.
5. Fathers who batter the mothers of their children are twice as likely to seek sole custody of their children.
Okay, domestic violence is bad. But to tell me stuff like 100% of murder victims knew their killer is absolutely false and you know it is. You simply cannot make those types of irresponsible statements without hurting your argument. Twenty-five percent of women are going to get the beat-down from their significant other? Damn, the odds are against you ladies, better start looking toward the fairer sex. Or does that mean gay and lesbian folks too?
Only 24% of rapes are reported? Come on, they were not reported, have you got video or something? Did you only interview women at the shelter? Is this study done by Lancet or something?
Forty percent of gay dudes are abused? Try closer to 100% and then tell me the true percentile of gay to straight men. I'm guessing that a whopping 2-4% of the male population is gay. That means a whopping 2-4% of men are abused. I'm not saying that is good, I'm saying that it is not an epidemic where new legislation is needed.
And the last thing about the abusers trying to get their kids is hinky. Why kick your wife's ass and then try to get the kids? Do you think that any judge is going to go for that? Do you simply want to look like an idiot?
Now, I could be completely off-base here, but you tell me if these stats sound right to you and if they help or hurt the debate.

WTW - Quick! Bleach for my Eyes!
Holy Mary, Mother of G_d! This here is Lynne Stewart, the super far Left-Wing Attorney that just got sentenced to damn near house arrest for smuggling directions/information out of prison for Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman who is serving multiple life sentences for threatening to blow stuff up in Manhattan.Should she be put to death for her crimes? Probably, but damn, imagine looking in the mirror and seeing this every morning. That would be the most cruel and unusual punishment ever in the history of the damn world. Holy crap, I think that I need a brain brush to get this picture outta my damn mind.
I'll be back shortly, I'm going to order five hundred cases of Viagra and maybe just maybe I'll be able to perform again at some point. Or not.

Anatrim the Wonder Drug!
I have become addicted to Microsoft Paint, the wonder program that increases productivity. And it produces some more useless crap for the blog.
Spew Inducing Quote of the Day!
I just noticed on the top of G-Mail there was a "Quote of the Day." Today's was from Oprah Winfrey and I searched some of her other quotes. This one almost made me sick to my stomach and I was starving beforehand.
I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.
Check it: Oprah Winfrey was born and reared in Kosciusko, MS. The closest "ghetto" is in Memphis, TN, about three hours away from Oprah's hometown.
Another gem from the STUPENDOUS brain that is Oprah:
Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.
Boy, I certainly hope my queen fails at something, I wouldn't want her to not be great! What part of greatness is produced by failure? And no one can even spell failure without U, Oprah.

Hooray for MSN Post #11
It means that he gets a foot right up his *ss. I swear that you can go anywhere on my blog and you will never find anything that refers to "a white man calling a black man a boy." At least I don't think you will. Aw Hell, let me know if you do. Look in the archives under the month of Blackuary. Yea, okay, I probably did say something about it.

More October Sports
Since there is no baseball today, I decided to look at the stats for the legitimate Heisman winner from last year so I can be ready when football season starts after the Series. I have watched Norwood since he was at Brandon High School and I can tell you from actual observation, he makes Reggie Bush look like a punk. Not that Bush isn't really a punk, he just doesn't look like it. And do you honestly think that Bush would have even been a starter in the SEC?Anyhoo, if you are a fantasy football participant and you do not pick Jerious from this season on, you deserve to lose every year.
And believe it or not, Norwood never got hurt at Mississippi State. That in itself is reason to give him the Heisman from last year.

October Baseball
I am typing this in the midst of quite possibly the worst first inning that Chris Carpenter has had all year, so bear with me. Gamecast don't fail me now.
Update: And the Cards advance for the third straight year!
Let's talk about money, because that is what everyone thinks about when they think about baseball. Only the Playoff teams, mind you. (And there are 30 teams)
From ChicagoSports.com:
1. N.Y. Yankees—$198,662,180 (Lost to Tigers in 4)
5. New York Mets—$100,901,085 (Beat Dodgers in 3, play Cards on Wednesday)
6. Los Angeles Dodgers—$99,176,950 (Lost to Mets in 3)
11. St. Louis—$88,441,218 (Beat Padres in 4, play Mets on Wednesday)
14. Detroit—$82,302,069 (Beat Yankees in 4, play A's Tuesday)
17. San Diego—$69,725,179 Lost in 4 to Cards)
19. Minnesota—$63,810,048 (Lost in 3 to A's)
21. Oakland—$62,322,054 (Beat Twins in 3, play Tigers Tuesday)
So far, I am looking at this and thinking to myself that there is no correlation in money spent and wins in the playoffs, much less the regular season. Could there be some kind of magical thing that dictates who wins and who loses?
According to the Tigers/Yankees series, you have to spend 59% less on your team to advance. The Mets/Dodgers series was pretty much a toss-up, around 100 million. The cardinals had to spend 1.26 times more than the Padres to win, and the A's/Twins was another toss-up, around 62 or 63 million.
The fun begins with the Championship Series. We have two teams in each League that spent quite differently. Let's hope that both of the smaller (poorer) market teams beat the larger (richer) market teams and then we can assume that rich teams can't win and we can quit all of this nonsense about revenue sharing and such.
Moneyball, Baby!

United 93
I have finally dropped out of the top four hundred on TTLB Ecosystem and I promised myself that once that milestone occurred I would return to blogging in earnest. So here's my first post after the fall from grace.
I watched United 93 this past weekend at Bean's place. She refused to watch it. I wish that I had. It took me a whole week to calm down to the point where I was not typing profanity every two words. Well, I still am, but I edit them out as I go along. Remember, this is a family-friendly blog. Hell, some of my friend's mothers read this junk!
HERE's the Wikipedia article on Flight 93. It shows the crash site and other things. And it makes me want to become violent.
On to the movie review.
IT WAS THE FAULT OF OUR MILITARY THAT INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE KILLED!?!?!?! Shocked me, but I thought some of those kissy face Muslims did this. I am so stupid. This is from the movie's end explanantion, so when the movie is over, DO NOT watch the blurbs. You will lose your lunch and want to cuss. More than usual.
Anyhoo, I stayed entertained through out the whole flick. It was mainly because of the raging homosexual terrorists, though. Ross, Chandler, Joey, and another guy from the coffee shop highjacked Flight 93. It was weird the way they just kept looking at each other and the sexual tension was oozing, I do mean oozing, from their pores. Think beach volleyball and you will get the entire gist of these guys. This movie made Brokeback Mountain look like Top Gun! Alright, that is not a very good analogy, but you get my point.
I was glad that the movie didn't make the heroes that saved the target of Flight 93 look like complete crybabies. Granted, the film makers did everything in their power to show that these innocent folks were scared silly, but for the most part, they did show their heroics. That beating a terrorist's head in with a fire extinguisher almost made me jump for joy. Man, I hope that really happened and if it didn't, can we go down to Gitmo and reenact that part, P-L-E-A-S-E?
The terrorists appeared just like terrorists should, like a bunch of panty-wearing booty-boys. No wonder Muslim men do not put on uniforms and try to fight like real men, they are too busy trying to keep everyone from knowing that they simply do not like women. But, then again, neither did Mohammed. I digress.
This movie made me remember all too well, the emotions that I had on that September morning. Not that I had forgotten, but this picked the scab off. I think that the timing was right for me to be reminded and I hope that you watch this before the elections roll around this year. It might make for an interesting outcome.
Oh, and before a bunch of folks start e-mailing me that Islam is the "Religion of Peace," find an article or two about some such Imam condemning the attacks and send me the link. That way, you might not look so stupid in your defenses of said religion.
And MORE from the "Religion of Peace!"

IT WAS THE FAULT OF OUR MILITARY THAT INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE KILLED!?!?!?! Shocked me, but I thought some of those kissy face Muslims did this. I am so stupid. This is from the movie's end explanantion, so when the movie is over, DO NOT watch the blurbs. You will lose your lunch and want to cuss. More than usual.
Anyhoo, I stayed entertained through out the whole flick. It was mainly because of the raging homosexual terrorists, though. Ross, Chandler, Joey, and another guy from the coffee shop highjacked Flight 93. It was weird the way they just kept looking at each other and the sexual tension was oozing, I do mean oozing, from their pores. Think beach volleyball and you will get the entire gist of these guys. This movie made Brokeback Mountain look like Top Gun! Alright, that is not a very good analogy, but you get my point.
I was glad that the movie didn't make the heroes that saved the target of Flight 93 look like complete crybabies. Granted, the film makers did everything in their power to show that these innocent folks were scared silly, but for the most part, they did show their heroics. That beating a terrorist's head in with a fire extinguisher almost made me jump for joy. Man, I hope that really happened and if it didn't, can we go down to Gitmo and reenact that part, P-L-E-A-S-E?
The terrorists appeared just like terrorists should, like a bunch of panty-wearing booty-boys. No wonder Muslim men do not put on uniforms and try to fight like real men, they are too busy trying to keep everyone from knowing that they simply do not like women. But, then again, neither did Mohammed. I digress.
This movie made me remember all too well, the emotions that I had on that September morning. Not that I had forgotten, but this picked the scab off. I think that the timing was right for me to be reminded and I hope that you watch this before the elections roll around this year. It might make for an interesting outcome.
Oh, and before a bunch of folks start e-mailing me that Islam is the "Religion of Peace," find an article or two about some such Imam condemning the attacks and send me the link. That way, you might not look so stupid in your defenses of said religion.
And MORE from the "Religion of Peace!"
