Mexico Calls US Stumbling Block to Green Reform

Here's a thought.

1. Go to Mexico City.

2. Take a deep breath.

3. When you stop coughing, take a deep drink of STFU to clear your throat.

The Twin Towers Hit Back

The USS New York, LPD-21, docks in Lower Manhattan Nov. 1st prior to its formal commissioning on the 7th.

The US Navy's newest warship designed for counterterror and amphibious operations bears 7.5 tons of steel from the Twin Towers in its bow.

It is the fifth in a new class of warship - designed for missions that include special operations against terrorists. It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft.

Steel from the World Trade Center was melted down in a foundry in Amite, LA to cast the ship's bow section. When it was poured into the molds on Sept 9, 2003, 'those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence,' recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there. 'It was a spiritual moment for everybody there.'

Junior Chavers, foundry operations manager, said that when the trade center steel first arrived, he touched it with his hand and the 'hair on my neck stood up.' 'It had a big meaning to it for all of us,' he said 'They knocked us down.They can't keep us down.We're going to be back.'
The ship's motto? 'Never Forget'


Now if only we could put some of that steel in our President's spine.

You're Not in Chicago Anymore, Barry...

...and maybe one day you'll realize that.

So Obama rolls into Copenhagen with his posse and hos entourage, Michelle, Oprah and Valerie Jarrett, frontin' like some ACORN rentamob marching into a Chicago S&L to demand free mortgages for people they know will never be able to repay them, thinking he could mau-mau the IOC into slipping Chicago the gig... but it never occurred to him that he didn't bring enough iron onto their turf and they weren't gonna play the bitch to his disrespect.

He couldn't intimidate the Teapartyers.

He couldn't intimidate the Townhall protestesters.

He DAMN sure couldn't intimidate Iran, NK, the Taliban, or Israel...

He can't even intimidate tiny little Honduras.

Think he'll figure out the hole in his strategy anytime soon?

UPDATE: My suave, nuanced and sophisticated theory confirmed. Obama didn't respect, and he didn't represent anyone but himself. Chicago got thrown under the vanity bus.

This would be a good time to remind everyone, particularly half-literate progressives and journalists, that the "ugly American" in Graham Greene's novel was the "superior" Ivy Leaguer, while the grubby dirty-handed yank from the flyover states got on with getting on.

Obama Olympic Bid Goes Up In Smoke!

President who's gonna save us from Ahmedinajad's nukes can't even intimidate Denmark...

Chicago Burned Again! Thanks, Barry!

Wonderful, wonderful Cooooopenhagen...

Self-Selecting Predators List a Hit with Public!

"This is a great day," said one mother of four, who spoke only on condition that TBL never tell anyone in the entertainment industry where to find her children. "It used to be we always wondered which entertainment celebrities were disgusting child predators. Now they're lining up to tell us which of them shouldn't be left alone with our children. This is both a relief in terms of our kids' safety and a real timesaver when selecting our entertainment options in the future."
