The Meaning Of Is

Leave a reply

Anthony Weiner, Democrat, has just confessed, but before he confessed he tried to do a Bill Clinton by saying the pics could have been him or they could not have been him. It was all dependent on the meaning of the word “is”.

 

Websters: is – to be; combining form of is – equal, homogenous, uniform

 

 

Would be Clintons scorn the norm

When asking what is is

They speak of the combining form

While others think of ‘tis

When Weiner’s asked if picture’s his

He thinks “homogenous”

Combining form of the word “is”

There’s nothing dodginess

Or maybe thinks of “uniform”

Alike in thought or dress

When written out in cuneiform

It could be no or yes

We know for sure one thing is true

If “equal” is what’s meant

Then “is – to be” is meant for you

For him the words are bent

Weinergate

140 Replies

Representative Anthony Weiner, Democrat, who for days has claimed he did not have Twitter with that woman, has now admitted he sent the dirty pictures of himself to that college girl, and others now are jumping in, claiming they too have received unwanted pictures of the goofy looking congressman. 

 

 

I’ve sent some stuff by Twitter

But so what, I’m not a quitter

We all know the women love the stuff I sent

They all love me in my shorts

Showing all including warts

That has now become a Weiner incident

Girls laugh when I do Twitter

But I’ve always loved a titter

And a hearty laugh just makes my day complete

When they see that it’s a Weiner

Then their interest’s that much keener

And so now you know just why it is I Tweet

Arab Spring Has Sprung

Leave a reply

The so-called Arab Street that cheered wildly when Mubarak was forced out by Obama, is now a bit more subdued as they realize the Arab Spring has sprung, and now appears to be teetering at the edge of a cliff. As of this writing Khaddafi is still in power, Assad is murdering his own people for daring to question his right to rule, and even Arabs know that changing one set of dictators for another set is not what they had hoped for. But that’s Obama. Hope and change seems always to morph into No hope and No change.

 

 

The Spring has sprung

The bells have rung

The people have quit cheering

Obama shrugs

He’s out of hugs

He’s no longer endearing

The Arabs see

That such as he

Is just a weak horse gelding

As the collapse

Calls for perhaps

Some riveting or welding

To keep intact

Obama’s pact

To topple all dictators

But now they know

It’s all for show

Obama’s small potaters

The Arab Spring

Was thought to bring

The end of the Israeli

But Obie ain’t

Their patron saint

And sure ain’t no Disraeli

Let ‘Em Eat Cake

Leave a reply

The demonstrations of the Arab Spring are driven in large part by the enormous increase in the price of wheat caused by world wide decreases in the amount of wheat coming to market due to drought and government decisions, like the insane decision by the US government, at the behest of the Kansas Agribusiness giant Archer Daniels Midland and the environmental lobby, to turn corn into gasoline, thereby causing much land that would have been planted in wheat to be planted in corn. And so poor people world wide, and not just in Arab lands, are deprived of bread, their principal source of food.

 

.

If price of wheat now goes sky high

And bread that Arabs make

Now costs so much then they should try

To eat more chocolate cake

Or mayhap try a nice gateau

A cupcake would be nice

A jellyroll or just for show

A strudel filled with spice

It breaks my heart to hear them cry

And tears from me are wrung

To see they can no longer fry

Ataif cakes over dung

 

Ataif are small yeast pancakes dipped in orange blossom syrup and served with clotted cream and garnished with chopped pistachios. Sounds good, just don’t let them fall into the dung fire.

Who Am I?

Leave a reply

The French guy who assaulted the hotel maid in New York is reported to have demanded of the woman, when she resisted him, “Do you know who I am?” You see, he was and is a member of the liberal elite, one of our self styled betters, chosen by birth to rule us, and therefore entitled to whatever he wants, including the young women of the working class.

 

 

I can’t believe that you don’t know

Just who and what I am

I’m the guy who runs the show

On every mini-cam

My face is plastered far and wide

My words on every tongue

With lovely women by my side

We walk with pavements strung

With flower petals and with gold

And diamonds fall like dew

The hoi polloi do as they’re told

And yes I speak to you

So when you say that you don’t know

Just who I am and be

Your statements just enrage me so

You’re you, and I am me

Paki Friends

Leave a reply

Probably the most duplicitous, most untrustworthy ally of all historical time is Pakistan. They hide Osama bin Laden for five years then claim they didn’t know he was living in a big house in the Paki equivalent of West Point.  They are in league with the Taliban and al Qaeda, all the while insisting they are on our side. They recently orchestrated a fake raid on one of their own bases so they could turn over to the Chinese sophisticated equipment on some P-3 Orion anti-submarine planes we gave them, not to mention the helicopter stealth technology they got from the down chopper from the bin Laden raid and also no doubt turned over to the Chinese. Does anyone believe the Chinese gave 50 modern fighter planes to Pakistan for nothing? I didn’t think so. With friends like the Pakis, who needs enemies?

 

 

The Paki hand it doth extend

The smiling face declares a friend

But hidden dark behind the back

The knife, the symbol of the Pak

The hidden knife, the toothy grin

The blank eyes wonder who will win

They do not fear the US might

They know our anger will be slight

And so they play the double game

And take our money all the same

Foggy Bottom

27 Replies

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is maneuvering to make the State Department the top dog in the Obama administration, replacing the Department of Defense in all things related to foreign policy. If she is successful, and she already has the willing acceptance of Obama and Valerie Jarrett, then no longer will the foreign policy of the United States be guided in any part by the strategic military interests of the United States. Foggy Bottom will have full and final say, and we know where that will lead. The State Department is full of career Arabists, who hate Israel and side with the Palestinians. And of course State believes that giving money to our enemies will make them love us.

 

 

Obama says when things be boggy

He hands it off to those at Foggy

And when he’s by the gonads got ‘em

That’s when he calls in those at Bottom

The problem is those Foggy people

Think piling money in a heap’ll

Cure the ills of those who hate us

And make them want to kiss and date us

Arab Spring

2 Replies

The so-called Arab Spring is in full swing, with demonstrators taking the streets to demand freedom, and the Obama administration actively pushing dictators friendly to the United States under the bus while cozying up to and kissing the behinds of Arab dictators in Iran and Syria who want us dead. Obama believes, and wishes heartily, that this time, with his help, those loathsome Jews and that loathsome little state of Israel will be eradicated from the face of the earth.

 

 

The Arab Spring

Will surely bring

Good fortune to Obama

Dictators dead

And in their stead

Adherents of Osama

But we can tell

That all is well

The Arabs love us all now

At Muezzin call

They’ll put us all

Up against the wall now

The Arab Spring

Will surely bring

Good fortune to Obama

As in Wright’s pews

Shouts “Kill the Jews!”

Bring smiles to O and Mama

A Day In The Middle East

3 Replies

The Arab strategy is to make themselves so annoying that people will just give them what they want. This works only so far. At some point the elephant stomps on the ants biting his ankles. At the moment the muslims appear to be winning, Obama has just sided with the Palestinians by demanding that Israel commit suicide, but that won’t last. Ultimately, Iran will get the bomb, something will explode somewhere, and that will be the end of the Arabs for another thousand years. They aspire to return to the glories of the seventh century, and they will do so, though perhaps not so gloriously as they had hoped.

 

 

The dawning paints the night sky pink

With rose and amber hue

The red sun rising o’er the hills

Brings Israel in view

The dusty plain, the watered fields

The cities washed with light

The Arabs watching ‘cross the fence

Claim it is theirs by right

The rising sun climbs in the sky

As centrifuges spin

The Arabs talk in whispers ‘bout

The day they’ll loose the djinn

As sunset draws the curtain low

Obama chooses sides

And as the sky turns dusk from blue

The man on pale horse rides

The sun is down, the day has fled

And darkness rules the land

As man-made intermittent suns

Make glass from Arab sand

Double Standard

4 Replies

To the mainstream media, there is a difference between Democrats and Republicans so vast that it requires different standards of reporting. In the case of sexual misconduct the media treats the story differently depending upon the party affiliation of the miscreant. Barney Frank’s live-in boyfriend ran a homosexual whore house out of Barney’s house, but the press just smiled. And we are all aware of the peccadilloes of the Kennedys, Bill Clinton and many others of a Democratic persuasion whose activities were covered by the press with a wink and a nod. But let a Republican slip off the reservation once, we never hear the end of it..

 

 

Bill Clinton was a scalawag

A charming, roguish imp

He lined the women ‘gainst the wall

And left them feeling limp

And JFK we will recall

Had White House full of whores

And laughed as we all chuckled at

His claim they’re just on tours

Now Lucy Mercer lived upstairs

But no one did object

The press protected FDR

By being circumspect

And everyone just shook their heads

And laughed and said that’s cool

When Wilbur Mills and Fanne Foxe

Jumped in the Tidal Pool

John Edwards, we all know that song

Ted Kennedy as well

The press would always look away

No story there to tell

Yet should a GOP guy try

The very self same thing

The headlines and the anchor screams

Would make the welkin ring
