Did the 'Surge' Work?

Another debate has come and gone between Obama and McCain, with Obama clearly the most presidential, and exuding the temperament, knowledge, and maturity, that is necessary for the highest office in the land. This is in contrast to the tired old discredited lies that McCain and his VP, Palin, continue to spout.

One inane point that McCain and his surrogate Palin keeps trying to make and shame Obama into saying, is that the 'surge' initiated by Bush in Iraq, worked. They keep trying to make that point to infer that the Iraq debacle is such a resounding success.

Everyone with half a brain knows that at $10 billion per month, with no end in sight, the occupation in Iraq has been a resounding failure, and trying to rejoice over a 'surge', is like trying to put lipstick on a pig.

The idea of a successful 'surge' is extraordinarily laughable when you consider that to this day, any American official down to the ordinary congressperson who is visiting Iraq, must sneak in under cover of darkness without any prior announcement, to ensure their safe landing there. The MSM dutifully spins this reality by calling it a "surprise visit" - in fact every visit has been and must continue to be a 'surprise'.

In the future, a so-called 'surge' could only be said to be successful, when an American official can announce that they are going to Iraq on a specific day and time, and expect to be able to arrive there safely without fear of being shot down - that will be the evidence that the 'surge', has in fact, worked.

Until then, Obama should rightfully refuse to give any credit nor credence to the notion of a successful 'surge', because it is a lie that is proven by everyone travelling to Iraq - they still have to sneak in and make it a 'surprise' visit.

The Simpson Verdict

Tonight, as I watched the reading of the Simpson verdict - guilty on all counts, and watched the silly, simple, stupid look on his face, I thought that any sane black person who was fortunate enough to be acquitted of killing a white woman and white man in America, would never, ever, allow himself to be caught up in another criminal proceeding again.

Clearly OJ is not sane, and maybe should be pitied for his insanity, but I don't even feel any sympathy for him, sane or insane - he's just too stupid for words. In my view, being stupid is far worst than being insane. I have no sympathy for stupid black men, particularly those made stupid by voluntarily consorting with skanky, slutty white women as he loved to do.

Now in prison, he'll have plenty of time to reflect on the blood shed by thousands of black men, who were butchered and lynched for merely being accused of looking or whistling at a white woman. To think that he would ignore this sad history of savagery against black men, and forge ahead anyway, cavorting with these hos' as if no one had died and paid the ultimate sacrifice before him, and thinking he was celebrity enough to get away with it, let him rot in jail whether he is actually guilty of these latest crimes or not.

Clearly, he is at least guilty of allowing himself to be infected with the disease of wanting a white woman, and given the history of this country, that in my view, is reason enough to be involuntarily quarantined and thrown under the jailhouse forever.

Also, it's no accident that thirteen years later to the day, he was convicted after his prior acquittal in 'the murder trial of the century'. "What the man giveth, can always be taken away" has never been truer. You got played OJ...

...good riddance!....
