What a dumbass.

Uh, under what law is refusing to launch nuclear weapons grounds for impeachment?

― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 18:53 (seventeen years ago)

the law that says the only form of retaliation to a nuclear attack is another nuclear attack.

I think this would be the basis of a very terrible novel.

― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 18:57 (seventeen years ago)

Questions best left for bloggers and terrible novelists, I think.

― sussing out the Slick Hustler (I DIED), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 18:58 (seventeen years ago)

I mean, I wouldn't put it past the American public to cry out for impeachment over something that wasn't illegal, but STILL

― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:00 (seventeen years ago)

if we did get hit with nukes, the American people would be crying out for aloe to soothe their burning skin, not crying out for impeachment

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:01 (seventeen years ago)

This is stupid for many reasons, but one of them is that you don't need to nuke people to beat the shit out of them.

― Your heartbeat soun like sasquatch feet (polyphonic), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:02 (seventeen years ago)

other reasons: NK wouldn't gain anything by nuking Seoul, NK and/or Iran can't reach US territory with nukes

― Wrinkles, I'll See You On the Other Side (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:03 (seventeen years ago)

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:04 (seventeen years ago)

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:04 (seventeen years ago)

― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:04 (seventeen years ago)

― da croupier, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:09 (seventeen years ago)

the makers just weren't prescient enough to make Denzel the president instead of a damn good cop

― da croupier, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:10 (seventeen years ago)

yes but this will be a "what if iran. . ." movie starring bruce willis and LA not NYC

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:10 (seventeen years ago)

hey bruce look out behind you!

― da croupier, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:11 (seventeen years ago)

― Obama seems to have the views of a 21-year-old Hispanic girl (HI DERE), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:11 (seventeen years ago)

this should be a subplot, so the movie can be called Kamchatka!

Some will weigh it...
And others avoid it...
but heroes...

Risk.

guyz there's a whole other lexicon of lame rightwing blog slang. "splodey-dopes" "tranzis" "dfh's" etc. "nork" is hella old

― Swat Valley High (goole), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 19:41 (seventeen years ago)

okay, what's a splodey dope?

24 [John J. Miller]
The show should start calling itself 16, so it can quit before the season goes sour, as it always seems to do. Things we've learned in the last few weeks: The real terrorists aren't foreign haters of America but U.S. defense contractors, stem cells offer the hope of miracle cures for biological-weapon attacks, and when Jack Bauer seeks deathbed counsel he calls a Muslim imam.

Nothing sweeter than reading NRO be disappointed about 24's liberal bias.

― Mordy, Tuesday, May 19, 2009 7:12 AM (1 week ago) Bookmark

Those stem cells would have been from an adult, fwiw. granted Kim Bauer is pretty brain dead but she still qualifies.

"splodey-dopes" are suicide bombers, or muslims in general. 02, 03, great times, man

― Swat Valley High (goole), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:05 (seventeen years ago)

hoo boy hadnt heard that one before yikes

― anal jaguar dudes (jjjusten), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:08 (seventeen years ago)

holy shit; way to infantilize sociopathic murderers there

― im drunk so no forks (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:12 (seventeen years ago)

to be fair (ha) it was never that widespread

Krikorian:

Deferring to people's own pronunciation of their names should obviously be our first inclination, but there ought to be limits. Putting the emphasis on the final syllable of Sotomayor is unnatural in English (which is why the president stopped doing it after the first time at his press conference), unlike my correspondent's simple preference for a monophthong over a diphthong, and insisting on an unnatural pronunciation is something we shouldn't be giving in to.

Never surrender!

Must be real quiet over in the anti-immigration think tanks these days.

― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:42 (seventeen years ago)

frankly I'm surprised no one's accused her of being an illegal immigrant herself

― Wrinkles, I'll See You On the Other Side (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:42 (seventeen years ago)

surely Bachmann or Coulter could "rise" to the task

She eats chili con carne with her left hand. It's enough.

― Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:44 (seventeen years ago)

Anyway. from a cursory glance at a couple of opinions she really does look like an expert in boring technical stuff -- the sort of justice who in the 1890's would have specialized in maritime law. In other words, she looks like she scrupulously adheres to precedents.

― Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:45 (seventeen years ago)

(but this belongs in the other thread; they do overlap)

― Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 27 May 2009 20:46 (seventeen years ago)

isn't this, like, every appellate judge ever?
