Truth To Power

America is at that awkward stage: It’s too late to work within the system, but too soon to shoot the bastards: Claire Wolfe

Rudie Can’t Fail

How you get a rude and a reckless?
Don’t you be so crude and a feckless
You been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can’t fail

Rudie Can’t Fail, The Clash London Calling

A rudie, or rude boy, is defined in Jamaican/reggae culture thus:

RUDE BOY: a criminal, a hard hearted person, a tough guy

That pretty much sums up Mr. “Noun, Verb and 911″ in a nutshell.

rudy

Thankfully, this Rudy did fail, ending one of the creepier presidential bids in our lifetime. Rarely has a man so unfit for public office attempted a run, and hopefully he’ll crawl back into the shadows, pimping himself out on speaking tours and sitting on a few boards, where he won’t be able to cause too many deaths.

Because if he had won, we’d be singing a different tune I suspect:

What are we gonna do now?
Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
‘Cause they’re working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we’re working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech
To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men
To be young believers

Can ya tell I picked this up yesterday?

    Dear Sirs:

    I assure you that a President. Guiliani would clamp down on many things. However, while wholly unsuitable as President, he is what troubled cities need in a Mayor and would be a boon to such locales as Baltimore, Memphis, Detroit and Mobile. Though the city intellectuals farcically yearn for the pre-Rudy days (http://www.flickr.com/photos/boojee/2193966244/), the Rudy era and the soon-to-end the Mike era, will be looked upon as tremendously civilizing. Thank you for your time and assistance.

    Sean Hannity’s panties are in a knot over the prospect of McCain being the party’s choice. Seems he has lost an ass in which to insert his head without losing his face.
