Shitstorm Erupts In Koslamistan

Things just ain't working out for the reality-based community and the Kossies are mad. Harriet Reid's a sellout and they're pissed at Obama. They've been used, tricked, lied to, blah, blah, blah.

Yep, reality is such a bitch.

Reid Caves: Medicare Buy-in, Public Option Pulled from Senate Bill

With Tom Harkin pre-capitulating, telling TMPDC that "There's enough good in this bill that even without those two, we gotta move," even before the Dem caucus met to decide the way forward, the writing was on the wall. Add Rockefeller, who says he'll vote for the bill even without Medicare buy-in, and it's gone.

A number of sources are reporting that the majority capitulated to Lieberman, who was in attendance in the meeting, cuz, you know, he's with us on everything but the war.

Heh. Next thing ya know, the Kooky Kult Kiddyz will figure out that al-Gore's done quite well at lining his pockets from the 'global warming' hoax they've supported so ardently.

Kosling Conspiracy Theory No.___

It should be an interesting weekend.

Modern political coverage is all about storylines, and once created, the media merely reinforces those storylines. And lo and behold, the vast majority of those storylines just so happen to be set by Republicans thanks to their massive media machine.

ROTFLMAO!!!

That's why Kerry -- a war hero -- can suddenly be "anti-troop" when that toady Boehner (who washed out of the navy in eight weeks because of a "bad back") can't possibly be brushing aside the deaths of 4,000 and the injuries of 30,000!

At least the little kommandante is consistent in the manner in which he shows his support of those who serve.

Unmasking Kommandante Markos

TXPoet & JennSierra at Ft. Hard Knox have a wonderful piece on Markos Alberto Moulitsas Zúñiga, known by some as the Grand Ayatollah of the Kooky Kult of Koslam.

(from ABCNews) Markos: I was in the artillery. I was actually a fire direction specialist, which is kind of a headquarters position. You manage the logistical flow of the missile battery…It means that there’s three missile launchers. I was in a track vehicle. I was in charge of making sure that the vehicles were fueled — the launches were fueled, that the troops in the platoon were fed, that there was enough fuel, ammunition, that sort of thing. So making sure all the other details that make a platoon work.

Army of One, personified.

[official job description]

SERIOUSLY: Anyone who has been in the service knows that a Specialist 4th class or PFC is never “in charge” of any thing. Markos likes to use words to inflate his own importance. Although he claims not to be into self promotion, his choice of words betray him and really give insight into his problem. Markos is a short 5’7” and he doesn’t like it. He was a soldier. Officers both commissioned and non-commissioned are “in charge;” the others simply follow orders!

In other words, Private Zúñiga was assigned duties similar to that of a high school kid on his first job at Wienerschnitzel, McDonald's, Burger King or the local Whoop-de-doodle -- he was a gofer.

Or, as some folks would say, all around butt-boy.

Kommandante, YOU GOT MAIL!

You won't be disappointed, read it all.
