#1 I know what he means. I have a Zen-like balance thingy going on, myownself.

On one side of the razor blade is the knowledge that, sooner or later, we will have to begin throwing IslamoScreed out of America, as well as "moderating" it in the shithole dictatorships which sponsor, aid, and / or abet terrorism, Islam and the "ists" by another name. It's merely acknowledging what the Muzzies, themselves, say when they think we're not listening or that no translation is available. It's there in their "perfect" books for all to see and understand, but even more telling, the perfect confirmation is there for those not willingly blinded, it's their behavior across the globe. Where there's shit, well there's likely Islam. For the sophisticated "I live in the grey zone, and I'm damned proud of it!" fuckwits: Islam is the enemy of freedom. And damned proud of it, too.

On the other is the knowledge that, sooner or later, we will have to begin offering compulsory wirehead connections to our native apologists, facilitators, and supporters of terrorism. You know who I mean? Perhaps this will make it clearer: The "I just can't bring myself to say: It's Them! It's the Fucking Muzzies! They want to bring down Western Civilization and erect a Global Caliphate, cuz that's precisely what their ideology (not religion) exists for." crowd. Cowardice, the inability to adjust one's personally preferred view to match reality is, well, it's just butt-ugly. But far worse is the obvious fact that it's goddamned dangerous, too. I think of it as the Immoderate Stupidity Watch. Plug in, bliss out, STFU. A new Timmy Leary kind of thingy.

- Your Friend in Zen

Hmmm, Islam and The Ists - catchy band name.

#5 In the words of that great political philosopher Arthur Fonzarelli - "exactamundo!" The Eurotrash, especially, have been on my personal excremental roster ever since the time right after 9/11 when they invoked Article 5 of the NATO Charter (the "attack on one = an attack on all" clause), then hemmed and hawed about whether or not that really meant they were going to help us militarily. Overrun with radical Muslims? Don't cry to us, guys...just make sure you cut down those shade trees on the Champs Elysees. I understand the Arabs prefer to march in the hot sun.

The Germans getting a little too in touch with certain martial/nationalistic traditions? Sorry, guys, we're sitting that one out, too. The quislings in our press corps whip up enough shit whenever ONE troopie gets sent more than 3 miles off our shores, and we're just not in the mood to listen to their caterwauling over 15 million or so getting sent into harm's way. Just politely ask the Krauts to put some scrubbers in the smokestacks this time around. Can't have our oh-so-sensitive European betters violating Kyoto standards now, can we?

Or maybe it'll be the Russians getting an appetite for more beachfront with western or southern exposures. Well, we have a little message for Vlad...go for the gusto, compadre. Just do everyone a favor and don't put up those ugly freaking cinderblock buildings on the Cote d'Azur, okay? If you need some development help, call Directory Assistance for NYC and just ask them to connect you with "The Donald". They'll know who you're talking about. Best of luck with the new property, Vlad...but ya need to remember just two little words and we'll get along fine. You listening? Okay - "Monroe Doctrine".Oh, and Europe? Don't complain. Lots of opportunities in serving your conquerors. Christ only knows, you've had enough practice over the years.
