Far East Cynic

And while we are on the subject……

Of Mark Steyn-a completely useless man. Here's another point of view that highlights my steadfast belief that Mark Steyn should just go fuck himself: “Had we rolled out something that was very smooth and disciplined and linear, they would have graded it well, even if it was a disastrous policy.

True to form

I hate Mark Steyn. He is once again proving himself to be the worthless piece of shit that he is. Over at the National Review, the resident loony bin of the crazed zealots in America, Steyn is crying because he did not get his "splendid little war".

I want 2000 back.

Yes, today is the anniversary of 9-11. Today will be filled with eloquent memorials, so I will not try to repeat them. All I know is I wish the day had, never, ever, happened. You don't know how I hate the fact that this date is forever fixed in the

Worth two hours of your time.

Contrary to popular belief in America, there is something more important in the world than whether Ben Affleck will play Batman or Miley Cyrus' performance at the video awards. This 2+ hour video from C-span is worth your time. Yesterday was a bad day for David Cameron-but it was a great

Oh Happy Day!

It seems the Navy is on a roll correcting Uncle Vern's mistakes. This really pleases me. In 2003, The f*cking P-3 mafia-after 4 long years of lies and deception, took over not just their own staff-but that of our own hardworking wing staff of aviators and logisticians. I'll spare you the
