Nukes and Scrotums

Posted on 15:54 by Unknown
Department of Energy agents can drive our nukes around while intoxicated, but the only way to keep America safe is for some TSA dude to fondle my nutsack before I catch a flight.

It all makes perfect sense now.

Hunting Bin Laden With A Sword

Posted on 16:37 by Unknown
Hunting Osama Bin Laden with the 101st Airborne and the 10th Mountain Division didn't turn out so well, so why are we harshing the mellow of a 52- year-old American dude with a handgun and a sword?

I Love The Smell of Terror Smell in the Morning

Posted on 08:02 by Unknown
The Poor Man Institute has some keen advice for those who are demagoging after the recent Times Square attempted fireworks demonstration:

Can I make a tactical suggestion?  If you find the Center for Advanced Study in Terror Arts and Sciences where Mr. Shazad received the technical training which led him to build a “bomb” out of bottle rockets and Miracle-Gro, and then gave him the operational training such that he was somehow incapable of setting fire to fucking gasoline, please do not do anything which would lead to any disruption of classes.  I’ll give you a moment to let that sink in.  If anything, the US government should be making sure they have the best facilities and most attractive campus for training people how to fail six different ways at terrorizing anyone.

We shouldn't be afraid of these nitwits. Terrorism only works if fear changes your way of life.

We should be curled up on the floor, giggling. That's how you win the war on terror.

Times Square Bomber Ineptitude

Posted on 06:02 by Unknown
I've been scratching my head since Monday, wondering why it is that people are screaming about Miranda rights, Pakistani connections, and the rest.

The bomber dude used non-explosive fertilizer, fireworks, and an alarm clock that could have come from the local Duane Reade. He paid cash for the Pathfinder, left the VIN number on the engine block, and his cell phone was tracked from the skies as he made his way to the airport.

Like the underwear bomber, he failed spectacularly, and was captured not with torture, wiretaps, or trampling on the Constitution, but due to old-fashioned detective work.

He wasn't very good at this. New Yorkers should feel relieved. The rest of us need to move on.


We should all be reading The Incompetent Ninja.
