TC the Terrible

The ultimate white trash homey looks like he’s going to fight for his right to get paid .  K-Fed is suing Brit to get custody of the kiddies, and cash.  Of course he wants the cash.  And personally I think he deserves to get paid.  After all, he worked his ass off to get one of the hottest looking performers in the music business to go to be with him, and eventually marry him.  Take one look at Kevin and tell me that was an easy thing to do. Then she spends practically the whole damn marriage knocked up.  All that work and he ends up with fat Brittney. 

Justin Timberlake got the hot babe fresh from the boob job and didn’t have to marry her.  His career went through the roof.  K-Fed was left with the sloppy seconds.  Who can blame him for wanting the cash?  I mean dude got dumped via text message.  He’s got to do something to get back at her.

No, I don’t think so. But I do think that it is the wrong word for describing the soon-to-be-former Secretary of Defense. Scapegoats are people that get blamed for the mistakes of others. While it was W’s call to take down Saddam and by proxy take over Iraq he’s not the one that was making the decisions on how to actually fight the war. Those were made by Rumsfeld. He’s taking the fall for his own mistakes. That’s called justice, not scapegoating.

The war itself isn’t going away anytime soon. No one realistically expects that to happen, no matter how good that speech sounded on the campaign trail. The Iraqis understand we can’t walk away from them with out creating a new South Vietnam and I doubt our national psyche could stand that. The dismissal of the SEC DEF should not be a sign that W is ready to cave in to the new party in power. This is only an adjustment of how to do business, nothing more or less.

Iraq deserves a chance to live a life that is at least a level or two freer than has been the case for the past couple of decades. The Middle East needs several democratic nations to take hold and thrive. If we are going to be the world’s police force then it was up to us to give them that chance.

We should have been more honest with ourselves about why we were doing it and what it would take to finish the job. But really, does the Army being at war in Iraq even effect your personal world? And since most of you would have to answer no to that question, why did so many elections get won/lost because of it?

Rummy made an ass-load of mistakes in how to run the war. Right from the start he was busy screwing the damned thing up by not listening to the experts on his staff. I do think that he was the right guy when he first took office to make some changes in the Pentagon. There are too many levels of bureaucracy and too many people living off of the government tit in that building. From the start he wanted to streamline things and kill off some sacred cows. Those were good ideas and the nation would have been better off in the long run if he had had the chance to implement them. He was the wrong guy to run a war.

Let’s all agree to that and move on. The guys in digital camouflage deserve that from us.

Ok, here’s the deal.  If a person that has five kids is talking to another person that has five kids and you have ZERO kids — stay the fuck out of the conversation.  Your opinions on child rearing are not valid because you have no experience to draw from.  I don’t care what self-help book you read the jacket of, you simply are out of your league.  And when I tell you this, don’t get pissed off and tell me I’m ignorant.  It only shows how small and petty you really are.
