Manolo

The musings of an out-of-touch and embittered old man:
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/bill-clinton-trump-hillary-loss-232803

President-elect Donald Trump “doesn’t know much,” former President Bill Clinton told a local newspaper earlier this month, but “one thing he does know is how to get angry, white men to vote for him.”

  Fair comment Manolo. They still don’t get it. Like it had nothing to do with they had no economic message, nothing to help those deplorable angry white men, who used to be the party’s base! They didn’t even visit them in Wisconsin. They just abused them and wondered why they didn’t turn out and vote for them?
  
  Perhaps the white working man wanted a more aspirational message than you are deplorable, we are going to close down all coal jobs, my opponent is a horrible person and vote for me because I’m entitled and I’m a woman.

    Scott , should we be concerned that Trump’s pick as National Security advisor Michael Flynn is heavily into conspiracy theories including the Clintons are into Pedophile sex rings and Obama waged a secret war on the Catholic church ?

      Should we be concerned about Michael Flynn as security advisor? Well yes we should be concerned if we are Muslim sympathisers who want to keep NZ safe for the followers of Muhammad.
      But if we are normal people who want to keep our country safe from Islamic terrorists and believe in western democracy well we will probably feel safer in our beds at night.

      “Political correctness forbids us to denounce radicalized Islamists, and our political opinion and academic elites dismiss out of hand the very idea of waging war against them. No wonder we’re losing. They’ve gotten a free ride.”
      Lt. General Michael T Flynn (The Field of Fight)

One can only smile with the logic of a left-tard.

Barley Sober writes ‘Perhaps the party’s gun shy after being thumped in the neighbouring Mt Roskill seat just a few weeks back.’

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11769892

How does labour think their aspirations would be described if there was a by-election in Helensville, East Coast Bays, etc.

The victor does not always write the history, we have the msm who will write anything for a dollar and so I imagine any pieces by them in such a hypothetical by-election would be about a valiant defeat, struggle against oppression, close call, sigh . . . .

The babble only gets worse; I could not bring myself to continue reading this from about where King chimes in with ‘The easiest solution really is for Bill English to do everyone a favour. For tens of thousands of Kiwis a change of government can’t come soon enough . . . . . ‘

      What’s changed is that Key is no longer the PM, so Soper doesn’t have to be his natural enemy. That’s the way Soper and others in the MSM seem to view it anyway.

  I reckon National should have found a larger than life character candidate – bloke of course, and have him and John Key wandering around Mount Albert having random barbecues in the lead up to the bielection. I’m not sure it would work but J.K would probably enjoy it and Little, Jacinda and co would lose their marbles and show their real personalities.

      And, being Mt Albert and not Mt Roskill, the sausages wouldn’t have to be halal meat!
      
      Although,once again being Mt Albert, with the gentrification meaning that all the inhabitants will be fashionably gluten intolerant resulting in sausages that taste like something Linda McCartney once served up.

Bit of a stoush on “Neighbourly” – it seems several residents of the same street have received anonymous letters saying “keep your cats out of your neighbours’ gardens, or you might not see them again”. Some of the recipients say they’ve taken the letters to the police.

Questions for the lawyers. Has a crime been committed at this point? And would a homeowner be within his legal rights to kill (humanely) a cat that’s in his garden?

  It depends on the circumstances. If, for example, the letters are warning you about the fact that your Chinese neighbours might be wanting the cats for culinary purposes, then the Race Relations Act will come into play. If it is a threat from your neighbours about what they will do to your cat if it strays onto their property, as opposed to someone else’s cat, and you are Chinese, then it is also a matter for the Race Relations Act. If your cat is Siamese or Burmese or has a name that sounds like it might belong to one, and has taken over a garden in your area, then Phil Twyford might be the one to call. If, on the other hand, there is a cat in your garden without your consent, then rather than kill it, humanely or otherwise, you should serve it with a trespass notice. Bernie Monk should be able to help you with the wording.

  s307 Crimes Act: It’s a crime if done ‘without lawful justification or excuse’.
  
  When exactly someone has ‘lawful justification or excuse’ is uncertain but I doubt it would include harm to a neighbour’s cat than enters your garden.

  Oooo and I was only looking at a YouTube vid the other day of some guy, who didn’t factor into account security cameras, doing the glutes-on-copier thing and falling THROUGH the contraption…
  
  I remember the day back in the early 90s when our office got its first colour copier, ha – an expensive machine at the time – and the boss telling us the new house rules.
  
  ONE person (not me, sniff) was randomly selected and she (as it turned out) was allowed to copy her head.
  
  Then the boss pointed out the new security cams about the joint, ha.
  
  Never ever photocopied anything private of mine…
  
  Even though, sniff, I have been assured often enough that the bits in question are QUITE cute…

Been watching the bewildered Democrat/Liebor Party losers in USA ,who still cant believe that crooked Hillary got her arse kicked by Donald Trump. Three reasons why it happened. Those who watched it happen, those who made it happen, and those who wondered what happened. Big Donald is now creaming the Electoral College votes,even though, there is still an army of bewildered losers protesting in the streets,only in America.

  I remember in the weeks leading up to the election you spent the whole time bitching about how awful Clinton is because she said she didn’t want murderous terrorists like Hamas to form the Palestinean government. For some reason the ultra-conservative Catholic and probable closeted homosexual Fletch felt the same way. Strange bedfellows indeed when Marxists like yourself and a bible basher like Fletch can both support Islamic extremists.
  
  Now it seems you’ve decided Clinton wasn’t so bad after all?

  ‘Clintons margin of victory in California where she got 4.3 million more votes than Trump.In recent years, California has been turning into what amounts to a one-party state. Between 2008 and 2016, the number of Californian’s who registered as Democrats climbed by 1.1 million, while the number of registered Republicans dropped by almost 400,000.
  What’s more, many Republicans in the state had nobody to vote for in November.
  There were two Democrats — and zero Republicans — running to replace Sen. Barbara Boxer. There were no Republicans on the ballot for House seats in nine of California’s congressional districts.
  At the state level, six districts had no Republicans running for the state senate, and 16 districts had no Republicans running for state assembly seats.
  Plus, since Republicans knew Clinton was going to win the state — and its entire 55 electoral votes — casting a ballot for Trump was virtually meaningless, since no matter what her margin of victory, Clinton was getting all 55 votes.’
  
  So Republicans didn’t bother voting- that or most of them have left for Texas!

      Then come back to us all with a short 500 word essay explaining why the nationwide popular vote in the US Presidential election system is of no import. Explain why it is a red herring, irrelevant and a crunch for whinging, whining, left wing, keyboard social justice warriors who want to change the rules of the game they signed up to….. when they lose…

More Western madness.

A Danish woman, ethnically Kurdish, who fought with the Kurds against ISIS, has been arrested and faces prison since she has returned to Denmark. Meanwhile, the Scandinavian country runs a scheme to re-integrate returning ISIS terrorists.

I saw a copy of an NZME paper this morning over coffee.
What are we to expect a full page article called “Closing the Gap” from none other than the failed UK Labour MP Bryan Gould. Was that not a Lange/Clark rhetoric ?
I understand he now has a regular entertainment page each week.
He was a failure in the UK and was a failure at the Clark arranged sinecure at the so called Margaret Wilson University – Waikato.
A right pair of failures – and they get some mugs to pay for their trash.
No wonder nobody will give Gould a job – why would you bother with the 1960’s man.

        He apparently addressed the Ambassador in Russian, before using Arabic. He is Turkish. Go figure.

        As in Stephiestan, Arabic is a common second language in Turkey, thanks largely of course, to Arabic’s use in the Islamic religion.

How creditable are Labour and Annette King when calling Bill English gutless and running scared.Well Annette might like to look at who chose to leave Parliament and a sinking Labour ship,not Bill Enlish or National no it was two ex Leaders of your Party that created By Elections so maybe those words should be attributed to your selfish self serving MP’s that that caused this situation leading to a By Election.National are the Government and they call the shots of when a By Election or General Election will take place not Labour or the Union.For your word about Bill English being gutless I myself think it is clever Politic’s to take the air out of Labour’s sails and does not give them time or a platform to crow about policy or the result. This also makes Labour spend precious dollar that their Party does not have,also how can you criticize a Government that has several current MP’s leaving or asked to retire but none pulling the plug to cause a By Election something that you and your Leader seem to forget. This will no doubt be another reason you will lose the next General Election because you always seem to want to play the player instead of playing the ball.

  Are you suggesting that Shearer is gutless for taking up a position with the UN in South Sudan?
  Are you suggesting that Goff is gutless for standing for Mayor of Auckland? Of course he could have done both jobs. There is precedent as I recall.

Plenty of bones to gnaw on today, guys and gals.

Rodney Hide’s mate, Hendo – Christchurch property developer David Henderson, will be free from bankruptcy in a few weeks.

Henderson, who’s recovered from bankruptcy before, will be keen to get back into business, but he might have trouble exercising what the judge called his “significant entrepreneurial skills” under conditions imposed on him.

  TOP DEFINITION
  try-hard
  A person who puts a large amount of effort into achieving a certain image, or counter-image, to the point where it is obviously contrived. Rather than achieving an image through genuine personality, the try-hard consciously attempts to fit a certain style through deliberate imitation, forced style, or scripted behavior. That is to say, he/she is trying hard to create an image.

With Wellington City Council announcing another 80 buildings to be re-examined, i hope all the Chase buildings are included in this list. When they were being built I remember someone telling me that they were designed to last for about 15 years and because there was so much building activity going on in the city at the time there weren’t enough building inspectors to check and see how they were cutting corners. One building had gaps between the external bricks which were filled up later with more mortar

  Too right cas.
  The means by which Chase acquired the land was ‘dubious’
  Mysterious fires etc. Straight out of the mafia playbook.
  They glued together some crap ‘buildings’ .
  
  The building cost prices were so sharp contractors and their subcontractors had to cut corners and use substitute material in order to gain margin. =Progressive weakening.
  
  I worked in 1990 in a Chase Corpse building where the lift repair guy was there nearly every day. This should be the strongest part of the building. The repair guy said the shaft was crooked so the lift would never be right. I always took the stairs to the 4th floor This was in Symonds St, Auckland.
  Stick with pre 1975 buildings.
  
  Commercial and residential building has been so poor as compounded by leaking buildings. Allowing a broke down ginga to be Minister of Building and Construction is not exactly progress.
  Dr Fuddy Smith has presided over shonky concrete, dodgy steel etc.
  Smith is a classic case of what any Green Govt would be like: Huffing and puffing, moralising, and vacillating while **it happens.
  >>What is the Difference between Nick Smith and the Green party?
  Smith is red on the outside and green on the inside.
  Green party are green of the outside and rabid RED on the inside.
  
  It never ends…. The Ed Ministry alleges Carter Holt’s cladding sheets and systems used in 880 school buildings were inherently defective.
  It has estimated the cost of fixing leaky schools to $1.1 billion to $1.3 billion, and in 2013 launched a legal action against a number of cladding manufacturers…
  
  Are we really first world in building or kindred spirits with Bangladesh?

  This will be soon be denounced as ‘fake news’ by Merkel, and those who have reported it sent to jail for five years. All and any reports of any negative aspects of the ‘Enrichment’ are henceforth deemed to be ‘fake news’, and will be punished in accordance with our recent legislation, whose purpose is to outlaw all news that has not been given our sanction as being ‘official’, or ‘acceptable’ news (code for ‘official fake news’).

    As several of you have noted, this writer (i.e., moi) is on the verge of a milestone: yes, I’m about to become a “made guy” by posting up my ONE THOUSANDTH MESSAGE on Mr Farrar’s renowned organ.
    
    To mark the occasion, I’ve decided to compose a playscript dramatising the rather pathetic relationship of a few rather pathetic, and nasty to boot, creatures from one of our sister blogs. (No, I’m not going to say any more—you’ll have to wait and see.)
    
    Since this looks like being such a momentous occasion, I’ve decided to throw open the door of opportunity to my Kiwiblog friends and colleagues who may want to get involved. Our friend “Keeping Stock” has suggested I attach another juvenile picture, so yes, I will do just that. Thanks for the idea, KS.
    
    Another pal, “Awww C-mon” makes several requests:
    
    I am going to put $5 on it being a sonnet, a beautifully written piece declaring love and affection for Judith Collins,
    
    Okay, there’ll be a sonnet in it. Or at least someone trying to compose one. To Judith Collins. Got it!
    
    Musical backing western style, weeping steel guitars and wailing banjo’s.
    
    Love that stuff. It’s going in too!

  ‘Washington electors vote for Powell, Faith Spotted Eagle
  Per Fox News’ Robert Shaffer
  Hillary Clinton has only received 8 of the 12 electoral votes in Washington State. The unfaithful electors voted for former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell, while one voted for Faith Spotted Eagle — a native American activist.
  This makes the current tally:
  256 Trump
  143 Clinton
  
  3 Powell
  1 Faith Spotted Eagle
  Washington Secretary of State Kim Wyman said she will work with the state attorney general and charge four unfaithful electors with a violation of Washington state civil law. The fine is up to $1000.’

A hit in a “prayer” room, Zurich, Switzerland there seems like it is violence in a “mosque”, 3 shot.

Would it be those Swiss citizens with legal guns?.

So the odds are; Christians? Bhuddists? lone wolf? or the as so often muslims are victims, looks like that and as per usual, is it by other very faithfull “muslims?” emulating their perfect leader, Mohammad.

    Of course not to forget that many other muslims may have cause, and even a duty to deal with apostates, like a true follower, looking at Mohammad’s actions and words.

The symbolism of the Bus massacre makes me indescribably angry. Rosy cheeked, blonde, German families out in the midwinter cold celebrating their millenia old traditions when some subhuman third world psychopath, who has absolutely no business being among such good people, kills and mutilates dozens of them out of blind hatred.

Just watch the cucking commence. This has nothing to with Islam. The killer was mentally ill. He wasn’t a real Muslim. The real thing we have to fear is a rise in Islamophobia. I see the BBC are questioning wheth it is terrorism or just an accident. As common as this shit now is, I am incandescent with rage over this one.

It’s not even getting the full breaking news wall to wall coverage. They’re going to try to memory hole this one as quickly as possible….

Look over there – a white supremacist racist!

  Sorry, but it is actually true that we do not yet have proof that this was an Islamic terrorist attack. The BBC would be wrong to report it as such, before they have confirmation.
  
  Certainly, it looks like a deliberate act rather than an accident – the BBC quote eyewitnesses to that effect. Certainly, it looks like Islamic terror – and the BBC acknowledges this, by linking it to attacks by Islamic militants in Germany and to the similar event in France in July.
  
  What more do you actually want the BBC to say, before we have confirmation of the identify of the driver?

Our multiculturalist can now swallow this big rat:
http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/electoral-college-vote-seals-trump-white-house-victory-n698026

The Electoral College formalized Donald Trump’s election victory on Monday despite protests around the country to encourage GOP electors to abandon the Republican.

The president-elect easily racked up the 270 electoral votes needed to send him to the White House. Interest in the normally mundane voting process spiked this year as opposition to Trump continues to fester, fueled by Clinton’s success in capturing more than 2.6 million more votes than her Republican opponent.

  At least he would not be worried about being in a Christmas market crowd, so probably out shopping for presents. After all that has never happened in NZ.
  
  He could be seeking true peace, being in a “prayer room” like in Zurich?
  
  Or is summer heat getting to him so putting out fires, like in a church on Crete, appreciating the new graffiti art work on the wall.
  
  Or going to an art gallery like the Russian ambassador, as he would have many like minded friends

Religious tolerance of diversity – the Muslim version

Run a truck through a Christmas Market in Berlin – 9 people die of cultural enrichment.

More great Xmas advertising to support the Greens plea to increase the influx of carries of the Islam death cult – a Pakistani (sorry Das Welt – FU it wasn’t a Chechin as you so desperately hoped).

Only a few days after the Greens virtue-signalled about increasing our refugee intake in the light of Aleppo – they show once again why their disconnect from Planet Earth is psychotically dangerous. Sadly, National’s jump to the Left this week means they’ll probably up the refugee quota before the election.

  These PC Leftists behave like the ruling British in colonial India.
  
  Come India’s peak hot weather unpleasantness, the colonialists’ families packed up and moved to the cool and beautiful holiday resorts in the mountains.
  
  The seasonal desertion of our lead TV media-ocrities leaves the news desks in the unchecked control of still-further-Leftists who usually get to play only at weekends.
  
  Just watch the blatant further-Left shift in TVNZ news over the holidays.
  
  While their chardonnay socialist seniors chatter, sip, and dip at the beaches and lakes, the Second String shapes the news broadcasts.
  
  On Radio Labour, meanwhile, whole programmes are axed and replaced by jibberers, pop music and talkback. This is at what ought to be a time of high demand for radio listeners.

    I think it is the political and Hollywood elites who lack objectivity. They just can’t stand the idea of Trump being president. It goes against everything they believe with every fibre of their being.

Toeing or not the PC line:
http://www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-world/national/article121851543.html

Trump’s 2015 holiday card said “Merry Christmas + Happy Holidays,” according to Yahoo. Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner is Jewish, and his daughter Ivanka converted to Judiasm before marrying Kushner. Both are influential advisers of the president-elect.

President Barack Obama’s holiday greeting card never said “Merry Christmas,” according to the Washington Times, which reports this year’s version said “Happy holidays” and said “we wish you and your loved ones a joyous holiday season and wonderful new year.”

Merkel should be ousted immediately:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4049442/Terror-attack-fears-lorry-ploughs-Christmas-market-Berlin-leaving-two-people-dead.html

A refugee is thought to have been behind the wheel of a 25-tonne articulated lorry which mowed down and killed 12 people – and injured 48 others – as it sped at 40mph through a busy Christmas market in Berlin.

The vehicle laden with steel cargo mounted the pavement at 7pm, before tearing through stalls and shoppers on Breitscheidplatz Square, outside the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in the German capital’s main shopping area.

The man at the wheel – who according to German newspaper Berliner used different aliases, was of Afghan heritage and had arrived in Germany in February – fled the scene before being arrested at a nearby zoo.

Police confirmed the original driver, who was transporting steel beams from Poland to Germany, was a Polish national who was found dead in the lorry’s cabin. It is thought he was hijacked.

Germany’s interior minister, Thomas de Maizière, said: “I do not want to use the word the terrorism yet. But many things point in that direction.”

Will it never end? Not even God can save us ….

“A NATIVITY scene has been ‘banned’ in case it offends one of the FOUR Muslims living in a Belgian town. Town chiefs allegedly refused to include a traditional festive display in Holsbeek, Belgium over fears it could upset a member of the minuscule Muslim population.
Traditionally locals put a Christmas tree and a model of baby Jesus in a manger in the centre of the town.
But locals were outraged after politicians decided it would offend.

President-Elect Trump dares to speak the truth:

“Our hearts and prayers are with the loved ones of the victims of today’s horrifying terror attack in Berlin. Innocent civilians were murdered in the streets as they prepared to celebrate the Christmas holiday.

Isis and other Islamist terrorists continually slaughter Christians in their communities and places of worship as part of their global jihad.

These terrorists and their regional and worldwide networks must be eradicated from the face of the earth, a mission we will carry out with all freedom-loving partners.”

  Obama’s Nice attack comments:
  
  ‘On behalf of the American people, I condemn in the strongest terms what appears to be a horrific terrorist attack in Nice, France, which killed and wounded dozens of innocent civilians. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and other loved ones of those killed, and we wish a full recovery for the many wounded. I have directed my team to be in touch with French officials, and we have offered any assistance that they may need to investigate this attack and bring those responsible to justice. We stand in solidarity and partnership with France, our oldest ally, as they respond to and recover from this attack.
  
  On this Bastille Day, we are reminded of the extraordinary resilience and democratic values that have made France an inspiration to the entire world, and we know that the character of the French Republic will endure long after this devastating and tragic loss of life’.
  
  Gypsies may have as well done this.

Killary goes mental. I wonder what she’s doing now, now that phase 1 of the coup attempt didn’t work out, either?

Hillary Clinton’s post election celebration plans included hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of fireworks, live performances by various celebrities, such as Cher, who came believing that Hillary was going to win the election, a five-hundred-thousand-dollar special effect glass ceiling that she would break through in a dramatic display once she walked out on stage at her H.Q., among millions of dollars worth of other celebratory preparations, all paid for by the Clinton Foundation in full.

The most notable damage was located deep in the VIP room of the Clinton camp. A custom 150 inch ultra HD TV, a gift from the Saudi Arabian government, was found with a broken screen. The damage was caused by a $950,000 bottle of champagne that was believed to have been thrown at the screen by the former presidential candidate some time during the election.

Early in the morning, the custodial staff were greeted by flipped-over tables as the floors were covered with expensive food, drinks, and appetizers. Broken champagne flutes and gilded silverware were also seen scattered around the would-be party room.

The most telling sign of a massive meltdown was the cake. The pastry that had once proudly displayed the presidential seal, was violently flung against the walls in chunks. A broken topper from the cake in the shape of the white house was discovered lodged firmly into the drywall near the dessert table. – See more at: http://www.rense.com/general96/CNNreportHillary.htm#sthash.PNuz7jyF.dpuf

      Who knows, but seeing as rense.com has an entire section on Pizzagate and a statement that Pizzagate is a “giant leap forward for investigative journalism” I would tend to believe it wasn’t because she was hurling million dollar champers around the room.

  If you think such a story is believable you’d want to verify the facts
  It could be fake news or just propaganda
  Maybe a self proclaimed expert on propaganda would know that you can’t believe something just because it is on the internet
  So how would you check the veracity of such a story
  You couldn’t trust someone who was actually there because they would just lie. Wouldn’t they.
  Maybe you could check to see if $950,000 a bottle champagne actually exists
  So what happens when you google it?

Taxes and “social justice”. Europe down the tubes:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/dec/20/portugal-homes-with-sea-views-face-higher-tax-to-improve-fiscal-outlook

People buying a home in Portugal that has unspoilt sea views or faces the sun may be hit by a 20% increase in property tax, under fiercely contested fiscal changes which became law on Monday. Those with a place overlooking a cemetery or water treatment plant may enjoy a tax reduction of up to 10%.

The percentage increase or fall is at the discretion of the local council, which applies the levy, as part of changes pushed through by the Socialist government.

“It’s based on social justice,” says party spokesman Joao Galamba. “People object when someone living in a basement and someone living on the top floor with a great view each have to pay exactly the same tax.”

  “doing the job the courts and police won’t.”
  
  We don’t know what this case is so to ignore that but to discuss the point you raise: what might be helpful is taking the same approach criminal profilers and intelligence analysts take. Profilers build up personas which people more or less fit. Intel analysts build a picture from seemingly unrelated parts. By combining those two skill sets on coming up with types of people and situations to look for, it wouldn’t be that hard to identify these people through police and welfare worker resources.
  
  Lots of people would say that’s Orwellian which of course it is. But is it wrong to use it in this way? If so, why?

    Because of old bogeyman & catchphrase of the leftists Reid…..’eugenics’….because this is what it’s all about. Unemployable, dumb, no-hopers breeding flat out in response to a society that rewards them for the behaviour.
    
    We don’t want a country full of kids with defective personalities because their mothers spent their pregnancies whacked out on meth or alcohol. We don’t need the offspring of solo mothers who breed for cash. We don’t need the huge expense of sorting out kids from revolving door relationships.
    
    But we get them because we’re too bloody scared of the do gooders, the “journalists” & social engineers who are ready & willing to slaughter those who object.

  Albright: Trump fits the mold of Russia’s ‘useful idiot’
  
  Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright chided Donald Trump on Monday, saying the Republican nominee has become Vladimir Putin’s patsy.
  
  “There is a great term the Soviets used to use: ‘somebody being a useful idiot,’” Albright told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell. “I think that Trump falls into that category of people that are manipulated also by the Russians and the Russians are trying to interfere in our democracy because they don’t have one themselves…”

    So you agree with Albright when she said a million Iraqi child deaths were “worth it” stephie? Of course you do, after all, you just quoted her, which by your own standards means you now agree with every single thing she ever said or did.
    
    Only scum could believe a million child deaths are “worth it” stephie. Only vile, satanic scum could ever say something like that.
    
    Yet here you are, approvingly quoting her. Which means, as I say, by your very own standards which you use against others all the time, you must agree with what she said. So it was worth it, was it?

        Reid , thats right not 1 million as you claimed . Shortly after had this to say ,
        ‘
        “ Little effort was made to explain Saddam’s culpability, his misuse of Iraqi resources, or the fact that we were not embargoing medicine or food. I was exasperated that our TV was showing what amounted to Iraqi propaganda…I must have been crazy; I should have answered the question by reframing it and pointing out the inherent flaws in the premise behind it. Saddam Hussein could have prevented any child from suffering simply by meeting his obligations. Instead, I said the following: ‘I think this is a very hard choice, but the price, we think, the price is worth it.’ As soon as I had spoken, I wished for the power to freeze time and take back those words. My reply had been a terrible mistake, hasty, clumsy, and wrong. Nothing matters more than the lives of innocent people. I had fallen into a trap and said something that I simply did not mean. That is no one’s fault but my own.”

Of course you could change your tactics and I’ll test you for awhile to see if you do, but if you keep doing what you do, I will bring up this bookmarked conversation and nail you to the wall, using your own evil petard.

  Looking at the Spectator comments section it appears there are some bitter and twisted socialist Poms. I have encountered a few of those entrenched types when I belonged to a union. I suppose living in tiny rooms on housing estates eventually dulls the section of the brain that produces happiness.

    Stephie X says of Trump, who I hadn’t mentioned in my post:
    
    I don’t think Trump has quite grasped the fact that China is one of his country’s biggest bankers.
    
    Japan is now the biggest holder of US debt securities.
    
    But, coming from the Islamosphere, Stephie X, you mightn’t grasp the truth of this saying: You owe the bank ten thousand dollars, you’ve got a problem. You owe the bank ten million, the bank’s got the problem.
    
    What would the biggest foreign debtor do to get their money back? Seize Hawaii or California? Good luck to them with that.

Even the ultra PC BBC bows to the terrorism theory:
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-38375555

German police are investigating a “probable terrorist attack” after a man ploughed a lorry into a Christmas market in the heart of Berlin, killing 12 people and injuring 48.

They have detained the driver, who security sources reportedly say is an Afghan or Pakistani asylum seeker.

    Stephie asks “so”?
    
    The Greens want to open NZ’s doors to more refugees. Admitting terrorists like this is part of the risk they would expose us to.
    
    We don’t want more Muslims in New Zealand.

        Stephie X: “We” are New Zealanders.
        
        On the other hand, Stephies, I’m not sure what you all are, but I strongly suspect some of you are foreigners who travel on foreign passports.
        
        On whose behalf does the Stephie Islamic troll team purport to speak? Stephiestan? Islam?

OK sillyboy, seems that the ‘driver’ wasn’t the first driver, who was an innocent Polish driver going about his business. He was dead in the passenger seat while the ‘driver’ who hijacked his truck conducted his mayhem. Get it?

        It just keeps happening stephie.
        
        And happening and happening and happening. It’s sad and appalling yet strangely fascinating all at the same time stephie.

Interesting that there has been no coverage at all from DPF today on the unspeakable horrors from Germany with women & children slaughtered at the ancient Christmas Markets – a place where one, even in today’s mental asylum of a world, should be able to be safe in as a place of sanctity.

Perhaps he’s saving it for tomorrow?

Angela Merkel is facing a backlash after 12 people were killed when an attacker ploughed through innocent revellers at a Christmas market in a truck.
