Hunny, I’m Home!
By Wyatt Earp | June 22, 2008
It’s been a banner week for Barack Obama. Let’s see, first he threw women in headscarves under the bus. Actually, it is more correct to say that he put them in the back of the bus – he must have learned that from his racist white grandmother. Then, he created an “original” campaign logo which looks eerily similar to the Presidential Seal. Then, he threw the media under the bus when they caught him flip-flopping on his public financing program. Then, he claimed that the GOP is trying to scare voters away from the black man – apparently, that is the half of Obama that he is identifying with today.
Of course, none of this compares to this week’s truly laughable comments from Obama’s presumed National Security Advisor, Richard Danzig. His comments are my topic for this week’s FSM article. Here’s a sample:
Children’s stories. They lift up dampened spirits and create flights of fancy for both the young and the young at heart. Everyone needs an escape from reality once in a while, even the most powerful men and women in the free world.
Of course, it is expected that these movers and shakers would take a trip to Fantasy Island when they were in the privacy of their own homes. To think that potential members of a possible Presidential administration would turn to a children’s book to make policy decisions is about as wise as giving Dennis Kucinich our nuclear launch codes. So, imagine the surprise the nation (and the world) received when seeing this story from the Telegraph:
Richard Danzig, who served as Navy Secretary under President Clinton and is tipped to become National Security Adviser in an Obama White House, told a major foreign policy conference in Washington that the future of U.S. strategy in the war on terrorism should follow a lesson from the pages of Winnie the Pooh, which can be shortened to: if it is causing you too much pain, try something else.
Mr. Danzig told the Centre for New American Security: “Winnie the Pooh seems to me to be a fundamental text on national security.”
Winnie the Pooh? Really? All this time idiots and dolts like Washington, Lincoln, and Roosevelt wasted their lives reading Thomas Paine’s Common Sense and Sun Tzu’s The Art of War? If only Barack Obama had been born earlier, he could have steered these mediocre men to true greatness. Imagine the impact that Pooh Diplomacy would have on our nation:

Hey Wyatt nice new diggs. The page displays much better now. I wanted to stop by and leave a comment last week but all the sudden I got busy dealing with a power outage and all that.
Anyway, as I have indicated before I am employed by a certain service that provides transportation in an out of the once great city of Phillydelphia. I hear a lot of talk about Obama and he’s going to clean up what 8 years of George Bush did to the country. I ask why would he do that? He’s just another lying white politician out for himself. That pretty much puts an end to the discussion. Works every time.

Jen – Thanks for the kind words. Jim from bRight & Early did most of the work, I just put in the words – and really, who reads them?
“Once great city.” Yeah, in the 1700′s.

(Gettin’ fancy-schmancy with your new site, aren’t we.)
BO’s presidential seal reminds me of John “‘Fraude Kerry’s jumping the gun by painting his airplane with the word PRESIDENT. Not FOR PRESIDENT mind you. Just PRESIDENT. And this was before Edwards was on board.

How on earth could a reasoning person bring up “lessons from the pages of Pooh” as a national security strategy while being looked at for the head of the NSA?!?!
Obama is a freak magnet. Freaks, loonies, criminals and terrorists surround him.

Kitty – Well, he assumed he was going to win. Just like Al Gore. Heh.
Thanks for the kind words! I really like how the site has turned out. Not a finished product yet – I may still tinker with the layout and rewrite the “About” page, but I am very happy.
Admiral – Even if he thought it was a good idea, why would he tell the media about it? I think shooting scofflaws is a good idea, but I don’t tell anyone that.
Oh, wait . . . Dang.

What these appeasers really need to read is the book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.
The key lesson is: if you give a mouse a cookie, he’s gonna want a glass of milk. Then he’s gonna want a napkin. Then he’s gonna want a place to take a nap. Etc.
If you give him the first thing, he’s going to want everything else in succession.

Your best one, yet, IMHO.

Dr. Seuss would be a good place to start.”Horton Hears A Who” can be mildly modified into “Horton Hears Iranian Bombers Overhead,”
Actually, Theodor Seuss Geisel was no slouch when it came to supporting the US during World War II.
