Now That Letterman Apologized, What Next?

After David Letterman apologized for his remarks directed at Gov. Sarah Palin's daughters, she did the classy thing and accepted the apology.

The Alaska governor, in a statement issued Tuesday, said the apology was accepted "on behalf of all young women, like my daughters, who hope men who `joke' about public displays of sexual exploitation of girls will soon evolve."

Fair enough. But I assert that a three other points need to be made, especially on how to handle liberals and the media (BIRM).

First off, when a Conservative and their supporters rally, refuse to give up and go away, and use the tactics of Alinsky, sometimes the liberal bullies will buckle. They are not used to us punching back, and they don't know what to do when it does happen.Yeah, the loss of advertising undoubtedly forced CBS and Letterman to revisit this situation, but they did, and they would have blown it off had pressure not been put on the people who call the shots.

Secondly, accept the fact that "comedians" such as Letterman and Jon Stewart are essentially a de-facto wing of the Obama Spin Machine, and treat them as campaign flacks. In fact, their reach and impact is more profound, since way too many people have their opinions shaped by these idiots than they do from "traditional" news anchors. Jim Treacher and Andrew Breitbart are correct that we should fight them and not allow them to retreat behind the "clown nose on, clown nose off" game that they have used for too long to beat on us. As such, we should refuse to just laugh off malicious assaults that sound as though they were written on Obama Campaign Literature and not cue cards for a stand up routine. Again, fighting back in an organized fashion will bear fruit. 

Finally, the media cheerleaders for these assclowns should not be immune from criticism. They have enabled comedians to shape opinion by letting them become news in their own right (Remember Jon Stewart taking on CNBC, and how it became top of the hour news on many "serious" shows?) . They should be pressured into accepting responsibility for their words and deeds, especially since they cannot hide behind a "comedian" defense. Hell, if MediaMatters and KOS can force a media hack into an apology, why can't we?  Admittedly, this is a tougher nut to crack, since the MSM will be asked to report on and self police itself, but the same organized tactics that were used against Letterman can and should be used whenever Jeffrey Toobin steps over the line. Who knows? Maybe it will work there as well.

Anyway, job well done to all who fought back. Remember this feeling, and how victory tastes, and be greedy for more.

PA to have Official State Rifle?

The Pennsylvania Long Rifle, as if there was any doubt.  Here's a demo of one being loaded and fired. 

They're pretty damned accurate for such an old rifle, a skilled rifleman could shoot them accurately out to 250+ yards.  We totally need an official state rifle.

You know what I haven't blathered about in ages

Shoes. Behold! My new stompy boots! (or well my new stompy boots in my head)



Louboutin's of course.  Let me put it this way, if you can pull off wearing those (and just those koff), I'm fairly certain you won't be paying the $2,000 for them yourself.  Just.  Sayin'.

35 Years Ago Tonight

The greatest baseball promotion ever took place.

The ugliness escalated when Cleveland's Leron Lee hit a line drive into the stomach of Rangers pitcher Ferguson Jenkins, after which Jenkins dropped to the ground. The fans in the upper deck of Municipal Stadium cheered, then chanted "Hit 'em again! Hit 'em again! Harder! Harder!"

As the game progressed, more fans ran onto the field and caused problems. Ranger Mike Hargrove (who would manage the Indians and lead them to the World Series 21 years later) was pelted with hot dogs and spit, and at one point was nearly struck with an empty gallon jug of Thunderbird.

Weapons Pr0n, Screeching Sound Edition

I can tell this guy has been around women before.

Sound (ahem) implausible? Look at the picture at right of test subjects getting the LRAD treatment. And take it from me: today at the Mock Riot, Scott Stuckey from American Technology Corp dialed the LRAD down to one of its lowest settings and swept it past me. It was like having a hundred nagging girlfriends in my brain screaming at me. Very unpleasant.
