I was listening to sean innanity as I wrote the previous post and he's talking about 'penis pumps' and a judge that used one in court. HOW NICE of him to rant about this subject live on the air between 4:30 and 5pm EDT.
Sean is ''a great american'' for this reason?
Actually, I'm GLAD he did that, it just helps prove what ''Junk food conservitism'' is all about.
DISNEY MUST BE SO PROUD OF HIM.
Perhaps I can go to Main Street USA in Disney World and start shouting ''Penis pumps! Get your penis pumps here!!!'' and ''Sean Hannity talks about them on his radio show!!!'' and ''Be 'a great american' and get your 'great american' penis pumps here!!!''.
Now if I did that standing on Main Street USA in Disney World I would be run out of there in less than an hour.
But DISNEY doesn't seem to have a problem with paying pawn innanity to be talking about this live on the air.
This undercuts the message that Rebecca Hagelin is trying to send about our rotted culture. If she gets stars in her eyes over pawn innanity and won't object to him being a so-called ''shock jock'' on the radio from 3-6pm EDT she is just exploiting a market AND NOT trying to provide guidance AWAY from our rotted culture!
Look, THAT is what ''junk food conservitism'' is all about. Principles mean nothing, just push the product to an eager market for it. ''if it sells, sell it'' cold capitalism. Just another market, just another customer to sell a product to. No more, no less. ''As long as the check clears'' is all that matters to such people.
Considering how pawn innanity sells his product as ''a-ok, won't offend anyone, be 'a great american' by listening'', perhaps Disney should play his show LIVE over loudspeakers on Main Street USA in Disney World...

p.s. That would be quite simple for Disney to do, Main Street USA is riddled with GOOD loudspeakers. They use them for audio for the regular parades. Perhaps they should use them to promote pawn innanity as well... posted by YIH @ 5:25 PM on Friday, August 18, 2006  : 

We've all heard by now of this cretin who got himself busted over in Thailand for patronizing child prostitutes.
But first for some ''backstory''; For years Thailand has been embarassed over a rampant child prostitution problem. If it were merely confined to Thai men raping childern the Thai government would continue to ''look the other way''. Thailand is a impoverished country and often the local cops are on the take from the brothels. But the word has spread that if you want kiddy sex, Thailand is the place to go. This has drawn media attention from the West over ''the Thai child prostitution scandal'' as well as attention from Western politicans over what has become known as ''sex tourism''. That's when Western governments criminalized the practice of traveling to third-world countries for the purpose of sex with children.
Obviously, the Thai government is qute embarassed over the persception that they are being known as ''the kiddy sex captial of the world''. So, since the mid 90's Thai cops stage occasional raids seeking ''trophies''; the Western ''child sex tourists''. In order to show the rest of the world that ''they are aggressivly dealing with the problem''. This dirtbag just happend to be a Westerner nabbed in one such raid (fellow Thais don't matter). Essentially Western embassies have let the Thais know that if they catch any of those creeps you can pretty much do whatever you please with him (just avoid killing or tortuing him). In fact, it's quite possible that someone from the US embassy told him in the Bangkok jail ''look buttmunch, we know why you're here and we ain't gonna lift a finger to help you'' so dirtbag realized that in order to avoid the prospect of (literally) rotting in a Thai prison, he had to come up with a reason for Uncle Sam to come to his rescue. And he had to think fast, so what better reason for the US to come get him was to claim he was the killer of JonBenet Ramsey. Especially if he is actually innocent of that crime.
Some have speculated that he ''studied'' the Ramsey case. He really didn't NEED to, in fact it would be like claiming that you or I ''studied'' the michael jackson, OJ or Natalee Holliway cases.
If you want to ''study'' the JonBenet case just click on CNN, FOX or MSNBC right now. In fact, I bet FOX news ''correspondent'' Seweraldo Slimevera is tickled pink right now. This gives him ''a big story'' to (re)exploit. Heck, even without ''this shocking revelation'' the JonBenet story bubbles up on it's own from time to time: Jon Benet Ramsey in Daisy Dukes By Mike S. Adams (take note of the date that was posted: Friday, August 4, 2006; two weeks ago, before this 'tard got himself busted).
It didn't take much brainpower to figure out that claiming to be JonBenet's killer was this jerk's ''get out of (Bangkok) jail and back to the good 'ol USA free card''. And WE the American people will get ''the whole play-by-play'' via the media.
Why do you think I'm writing this? To get on this media bandwagon MYSELF!!! At least I'm being more honest about it than the rest of the media!!!
Personally, I think this moron DIDN'T kill JonBenet. Even if I think he's lower on the food chain than the Seweraldo Slimevera that will play this to the hilt. So we got this unstoppable media circus all over again. I might as well join this media party!!!
I think this pinhead 'got the golden ticket' and he's going to use it for all it's worth.
So despite the fact that I belive he didn't kill JonBenet (but is nevertheless a sicko) he has become an ''insta-celeb'' vying for his proverbial fifteen minutes of (in)fame.
Here's how I think it will play out: He will claim this confession was beaten out of him. I doubt that, but by making this claim gives him both ''victim'' status (useful in court in the future) and the ability to say he ''confessed under duress''. I think he will be ruled out as JonBenet's killer from evidence and testimony by relatives. He FLED the US on child pr0n charges and he will have to face them. But now he can use his new-found media celebrity status to help him.
I now see Savage's point when he calls it ''the government-media complex''. IT IS, and this jerk figured out how to exploit that to his advantage...

Because he's the perfect example of ''a junk food conservitive''. Whenever I look at his site I think ''His patriotism may be BROAD but is sure isn't DEEP''.
Like too much of talk radio, ''all show and no go''. And to defend their opinions it becomes ''If you disagree with me you are NOT ''a good american''.
My opinion is john kerry hawkins operates his site as a way to not have to say ''would you like fries with that''? to make a living:

He has no principles. HE FAILS THE PROSTITUTION TEST.
The prostitution test has become an old joke:
Man walks up to a woman in a bar and asks her; ''Would you sleep with me for a million dollars''?
She says; ''For a million dollars, I will''.
Man says; "Will you sleep with me for $50?''.
She slaps his face and says; ''What kind of girl do you think I am?''
Man says; ''We already established THAT, now we are discussing the price''.

From Diana West, someone who actually is ''reality-based'':

I'm all for looking on the bright side, but this is ridiculous. Commenting on the largest demonstration in favor of Hezbollah's war on Israel — a demonstration that took place in American-liberated Baghdad — Condoleezza Rice John Kerry Hawkins had this to say to NBC's Tim Russert: "That people would go out and demonstrate and say what they feel is one sign that perhaps Iraq is one place in the Middle East where people are exercising their right to free speech." Come again? Hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Shi'ites, calling "Death to Israel" and "Death to America," voice their support for a terrorist organization that hides behind human shields in Lebanon as it rains rockets down on cities in Israel, and the secretary of state praises freedom of speech in Iraq? It's enough to make a happy face weep. But Miss Rice John Kerry Hawkins beams on, diplomatically speaking, Pollyanna on the Potomac.
A more realistic approach would wipe the smile off anyone's assessment. But our foreign policy is increasingly driven by a sanguine un-reality. Oh, for an administration official who could respond to this intractable situation with an unabashedly unpleasant analysis.
"Yes, Tim," my dream secretary of state would say. "What you see in these pro-Hezbollah protests is the unfettered expression of the people of the Republic of Iraq. I wish I could say this was limited to a vocal minority, but we're seeing this same sentiment expressed across sectarian lines, in the now-free press, even in back channel communications. Why, Iraq's parliament came together unanimously — a democratic first — to condemn Israel, never mentioning Hezbollah. And why should it? Iraqi officials have refused to condemn the Iranian proxy as a terrorist group."
That might leave the host speechless — but just momentarily before he'd ask: "So what are we doing there?"
"Well, Tim,"she would respond, "the president is currently working on a major address — the most important address of his second term, I would imagine — to prepare the American people for entry into what we like to think of as the post-PC world. What I mean by that is, American efforts to extend the pacifying, enriching and ennobling benefits of democratic liberty to the Muslim Middle East have bumped up against our own erroneous teachings of political correctness.
"For generations now, Americans have been taught that all peoples are the same, all cultures are the same, all religions are the same — hard-wired to live by the same self-evident truths. Our experience in Iraq, our experience with Islam, if you will, tells us, in fact, that we are not all the same. We do not all want the same things out of governments, our cultures or our religions. This is something our experience in Iraq has finally taught us. There are vast differences between Islam and the West, differences that are not the mission of the United States military, or in the interest of the United States to bridge."
My dream secretary would continue: "Whether posterity judges us kindly and calls ours a noble experiment in Iraq, Tim, the bottom line here and now is that we're not getting results. I mean, how do you expect to fight a war on terror for, or alongside, terrorist sympathizers? It can't be done. And the war on terror is the president's primary concern. As a result, you will see the mission of American troops changing as they leave the streets of Iraq's cities to be redeployed to strongholds in Kurdistan — and beyond."
"Where?"
"Let's just say we'll be talking much more about Iran and Syria in the coming weeks, and their roles in sponsoring terrorism and nuclear blackmail." Poof.
Alas, Coleridge-like, I find my vision of chat-show Xanadu has gone black. On the real-life program, Miss Rice John Kerry Hawkins went on to offer a typically reality-challenged solution for Lebanon: Her His idea — the U.S. idea — is "to flow the authority of the Lebanese government and Lebanese forces with the help of international forces" into Hezbollah-controlled areas. Just keep smiling, and never mind that all too much of the Lebanese government, the Lebanese forces, not to mention the Lebanese people are rootin'-tootin' Hezbollah boosters.
But wait, what's that voice in my head? "Given the Free World's stake in the destruction of Hezbollah's terrorist forces," my dream secretary is saying, "the president will be calling on our friends in the international community to offer Israel our shared gratitude and unified support for taking on this common enemy."
Poof again.

SO WHEN ARE WE GOING TO START IGNORING LIBERALS LIKE JOHN KERRY HAWKINS when they say ''nation building, that's how we'll win'' and start saying ''ENEMY DEFEATING, THAT is how TO ACTUALLY BEGIN to fight against our enemies''... posted by YIH @ 5:00 PM on Monday, August 14, 2006  : 

On a chat room I visit regularly, I tossed out as a general comment ''When a muslim attempts (or is succsessful) in getting an explosive device on board an airliner hidden in a ''body cavity''...''
I posted that to see if anyone would comment on it. No one bit.
A potent bomb and remote-activated detonator could be made small enough to be inserted into the human body. We all know what will come next don't we?
What cops and corrections officers call ''body cavity searchs'' before air travel.
That's right, Grandma is going to have to be humiliated in the name of ''security''. And of course, mr. abdul mohammed and his wife aiesha mohammed won't have to go through this treatment. No, No, No, of course not.
Something I saw on Malkin's blog that absolutely floored me: What's wrong with this picture?

Calm down, she's not in any harm, NOT missing. Her mother was seeking a passort for her.
The British Passport Office rejected her application because (insert haughty British accent here) "that the exposed skin might be considered offensive in a muslim country."
Now let me get this straight, we've sent 130,000+ of our best and brightest to a muslim country ''to bring freedom'' to a people that don't want and openly reject freedom, and use elections to vote in their favorite muslim thugs but meanwhile WE have to give up our freedoms and dignity to ''avoid offending muslims''.
What is a better use of 130,000+ troops:
Trying to do the impossible overseas (to ''westernize'' a muslim country)
Or using them to pick up HAMAS/CAIR and clean out Dearborn MI and send those muslims back to their muslim hell-holes where they belong?
You tell me which use of our Military PROTECTS AMERICA and which use of our Military squanders finite resources INSTEAD OF PROTECTING AMERICA.
Face it folks, with or without our involvement, Iraq is going to turn into ''sunnistan'', ''shi'itestan'' and ''kurdistan''. It WILL be bloody but that is NOT our problem.
OUR problem is clinging TO THE PIPE DREAM that somehow, somehow, that if we ''just stay the course'' (just like the captain of the Titantic) we can somehow, somehow, create a unified, ''westernized'', muslim country called Iraq. If that is how ''victory'' is defined then 130,000+ OF OUR GREAT-GRANDCHILDERN will still be trying to create a unified, ''westernized'' muslim country called Iraq DECADES from now.
Did we achive victory in Iraq? YES, when president bush was standing under that ''Mission Accomplished'' banner the mission WAS accomplished. Then LIBERALS TACKED ON A ''transform Iraq'' mission THAT CANNOT BE accomplished. EVER. EVER.
I can here it now; (in whining voice) ''But what if Iraq turns into a threat to us again''?
Another application of ''Shock and Awe'', but done correctly, NO FANTASIES of ''liberating their people'' or ''rebuilding their country'' should take care of THAT problem.
''The purpose of the Military is not to be an international meals-on-wheels, the purpose of the Military is to kill people and break things''. The Military IS THE WAR CORPS, NOT THE PEACE CORPS!!!
The correct use of our Military is GO IN, HIT HARD, HIT FAST, AND LEAVE. Rinse and repeat as nessessary.
The incorrect use of our Military is go in, fight a (as Paul Harvey dubbed it) ''a pulled-punches war'' trying ''to win the hearts and minds of their people'' and ''rebuild their country''.
What we have been doing in Iraq since ''Mission Accomplished'' IS A UN-style ''peace-keeping'' operation!!! Does THAT sound ''conservitive'' to you?
If you want to ''support the troops'' then make it CLEAR that you DON'T support UN-style ''peace-keeping'' operations!!!
BTW, we need to replace 130,000+ of our finest with cindy sheehan. Let her and her fellow so-called ''peace activists'' create ''Iraq the Model''. Either they will get a lesson in harsh reality or they will be killed. I don't see a downside to that... posted by YIH @ 8:52 AM on  : 

From time to time I've involved myself in the debate ''Is Ann Coulter a good representive of conservitivism today?''. Lawrence Auster has said ''No, not at all''. Rick Darby's opinion was ''Lawrence, you are reading too much into the cover shot for Godless''.
Initially, I sided with Darby on this. But then I came across a video clip of Coulter that supports Mr. Auster's opinion of her.
I had let the matter go until now. I am a fan of what is known in America as Anime (a.k.a. ''Japanimation''). Like any art form, some of it is excellent, but most of it is garbage. Among fans of this genre of artwork there is a lexicon of terms. The one I will introduce here is ''Fan Service''.
The best explanation of that term for non-fans of Anime is the TV show ''Dukes of Hazzard'':
Think of ''Daisy Duke'': What was the point of most of her appearances on the show? To help tell the story in a particular episode? No, usually not;

The point of most of her appearances is quite obvious. Fans of Anime refer to this as ''Fan Service''.
Which brings me to Ann Coulter, even Auster admits her writing is decent even if the public image of her often is not (in fact, it can be downright ugly at times).
What Ann Coulter is doing in her media appearances to promote her book is tried and true 'cheesecake' . In my opinion the easiest way to NOT be thought of as ''just a blond bimbo'' is to stop presenting yourself as if you are one.
Coulter has chosen to build herself up as ''the smart bimbo''. She knows she has a fan base that likes her primarily for her looks and she mistakenly thinks that those who think of her as ''a conservitive pinup girl'' will take what she writes seriously. In other words, what she does is ''Fan Service''.
In radio interveiws she portrays herself as serious. In photo shoots/TV appearances she portrays herself as a model. Not only is that unessessary, it undermines whatever serious message she has. A good example of that can be seen here... posted by YIH @ 9:21 PM on Saturday, August 12, 2006  : 

''Our forces will remain in Iraq as long as the Iraqis want us there''; President Bush.

The caption reads:

Ripping an American flag, thousands of Iraqi Shiites gather in a mass demonstration against Israel's bombing of Lebanon, Friday, Aug. 4, 2006, in the Sadr City area of Baghdad, Iraq. Over 200,000 Shiites filled the streets of the Shiite dominated Sadr City slum to attend a rally in support of Lebanon after Friday prayers. (AP Photo / Hadi Mizban)

''We are winning their hearts and minds''. Uh, I don't think so. I think ''the iraqi people'' have made their opinion QUITE CLEAR!!!
Where did this pic come from? This news article: Iraqi Shiites Chant 'Death to Israel'.
The first paragraph says it all:

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Hundreds of thousands of Shiites chanting "Death to Israel" and "Death to America" marched through the streets of Baghdad's biggest Shiite district Friday in a show of support for Hezbollah militants battling Israeli troops in Lebanon.

It's time to admit it; our ''mission in Iraq'' IS FINISHED. IT'S OVER. WE ARE DONE.
From Jihad Watch:

"When my children ask me why their dad is over in Iraq and he can't be here with us. I want to give them an educated honest answer. I have found that history is the most logical answer and the only truth I can find on this subject. Then I ran out of answers and all I could say was 'I don't know anymore.' I believed all the propaganda. But I figured that I would set forth the effort to get to know the Jihad and the Koran to have some logic as to where these radical people where coming from. To tell you the truth I was hoping to find that I was wrong and being some what of a bigot." -- a query by an army wife, at Jihad Watch

OK folks, what do we tell this lady? The only answer remaining is: ''Your husband is in Iraq because President Bush will not order Donald Rumsfield to bring him home''.
Back to the most important quote:

THE PRESIDENT: My fellow citizens, at this hour, American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people and to defend the world from grave danger.

Disarming Iraq? We have accomplished that to the best of our ability.
Freeing it's people? From the dictatorship of saddam hussein is something we can (and did) accomplish. But from the dictatorship of islam? That is impossible.
Defending the world from grave danger? Only the looniest of the right can claim that Iraq NOW presents to the world ''grave danger''.
The quote from Jihad Watch is part of a larger article entitled:
Fitzgerald: Why are we in Iraq?
Why ARE we still there? We CAN'T make ''Iraq the model'', we were foolish to think we could.
It's humilitating to admit ''we got scammed''. But I'll say it: WE GOT SCAMMED.
What was the scam? The idea that by removing the dictatorship of saddam hussein, Iraq was ready, willing AND ABLE to ''westernize'': We actually belived that by removing the dictatorship of saddam hussein Iraq would join ''our world''. WE ACTUALLY THOUGHT we could ''heal'' Iraq.
It is time to face reality; No matter what we do, we CANNOT ''cure'' Iraq, or 'crime'.
IT IS LIBERALISM that says ''But We can do it!!! We just have to TRY harder!!!''.
We USED to think child molesters can be somehow ''cured of their problem''. We now know that there IS NO ''cure'' for them.
We now understand that childern MUST BE PROTECTED from child molesters.
That is how we now must deal with Iraq as well. Give up THE LIBERAL IDEA that we can ''cure'' Iraq of islam, and deal with reality.
135,000+ Americans in Iraq? WHY? The whole point of having a Military IS TO DEFEND US from our enemies. This is not happening right now. Also from Jihad Watch:"I'm a Muslim American, I'm angry with Israel.".
There is NO SUCH THING as ''a muslim american''. If we keep playing ''Lets Pretend'' that such things as the tooth fairy, leprechuans, ''muslim-americans'' and unicorns ACTUALLY EXSIST, America has lost this war... posted by YIH @ 3:08 AM on Saturday, August 05, 2006  :
