Swedish hostage taker retires

Little Green Footballs article on Sweden inviting HAMAS. 

The Swedish bank robber responsible for the term “stockholm syndrome” turned himself in today. Swedish Authorities let him go so he can collect his pension when he retires soon…

 Meanwhile Sapo (Swedish FBI) searches for the accomplices of a man who burned an Iraqi polling place.

and finally a grenade is found near a sandbox.

 

Martyr

The Martyrs the MSM doesn’t show.  The booming economy the MSM doesn’t show at Gateway Pundit.

Also Germany creates new methods to achieve citizenship, one component of which is that you must learn German. The MSM isn’t going to tell you this either, since Germany is one of the countries at the forefront of the multi-cultural movement.

This guy sounds like he belongs on the 9th circuit court of appeals.

 

Priorities

While lawmakers should be enabling refinery builds, oil drilling, nuclear plants, trans-continental high speed rail, border security, an end to judicial filibustering, Genocide in Darfur, or any one of hundreds of other things that actually concern Americans, Christopher Smith is worried about prostitution in Germany… argggggggggggg.

Here’s an excellent article from Brussels Journal that speaks for itself so well, it’s a must read.

 Above all, at home and abroad, the “concerned” want “diplomacy” to be let to do the job. Regrettably, diplomacy depends on credibility and that is a derivate of the bayonets that back it up.

 

NSA Spying? Worry more about Google, Yahoo, and Cisco

To all of you tinfoil-hat wearing liberals worried about Bush and the NSA, here’s where your focus should be instead. 

For those who support freedom of internet reporting, here’s an interesting site:

Pseudo-Hillary gets Recalled…

 

Commander in Chef………. canceled.

And in more interesting news, try to picture how they got this guy out of the stall…

 And in the things get weirder everyday category…. I will cop to the fact that I have paid real, hard currency dollars for virtual things in an imaginary world…. what’s strange is the turn this has taken….. See the articles in Wired, AP, and Business Week…. Continue reading “Pseudo-Hillary gets Recalled…”

More NYT near-traitorous idiocy

The New York Times has found another congressional leaker for the world socialist cause. See the article here. Yes, all the parts of this are declassified, I read them myself in some science rags, however the pieces assembled and the methods proposed are not declassified I would bet. Continue reading “More NYT near-traitorous idiocy”

Moussaoui Gets Life

Mouissaoui gets life -the jury here probably had in the back of their mind “but if we kill him as he wants then that’s another martyr for Islam….” That’s fear talking.

 Moussaoui Gets Life

Although we wanted death. This shows me that in subtle ways the terrorists methods are changing us — the jury here probably had in the back of their mind “but if we kill him as he wants then that’s another martyr for Islam….” That’s fear talking.

On the way home, a local radio talk show host, Jerry Agar, broadcast my thoughts pretty well…. He paraphrased a quote that General Norman Schwarzkoff had given to a reporter who asked “What do you do if someone attacks who wants to die?”

 Stormin Norman replied something to the effect of

     “You help him get there as fast as you can.”

All jacked up…

Is a term peculiar to Kansas and Missouri maybe… I don’t know, someone tell me if you hear it in other regions. Anyway, my last post was all jacked-up — the Link to the Chavez article is now fixed. Hey, if you see something screwed up like that, it is ok to leave a comment and let me know btw.

The etymology of “Jacked-up” was explained to me by someone when I first moved here, if someone has a better one please let me know, they could have been pulling my leg. 

Supposedly the the term comes from “jack-leg” which was a confederate soldier returning from the civil war to Missouri, called that for the stripe on their pant legs or type of pants they wore. These guys were the cheap labor in Kansas, since the economy in Missouri wasn’t exactly booming at the time. If you used a “jack-leg” contractor, then the work was supposedly inferior, thus the term “all jacked-up”.

Update:

I received an email with an alternate etymology for “all jacked up” — it refers to being in a bad state from too many JD and cokes. There’s even a song that’s supportive of this theory.
