112. 1103 Cleared to engage




Controller: I told them our mission is to protect major centers and we’re goin’ to take you and drag you down to Pittsburgh, and do this, because I got a tanker comin’ now. But, ah, I just want to give them an ROE because it’s gonna’ be auto-ops once he’s down there. So I want to make sure I got clear concise words to him before he leaves. Granted they only got four turrets of guns



[Background] Unknown: If they don’t, ah, if they do not, don’t respond to divert to hand signals and divert procedures and are headed toward a major area then you are cleared to engage.



Controller: Wilco.



Controller: Cobra and Apex, this is Huntress.



Cobra One: Huntress.



Huntress: Okay, there is still a bit of traffic airborne, they’re not all completely down, I imagine it’s all low south of you, if you’ll hold two loops before the tanker gets, ah, Oh, shit, I need a check list.



Cobra One: Cobra Onecopies



Controller: OK, I have ah ROE instructions, are you ready to copy?



Cobra One. Stand by, Huntress.



Cobra One: This is, ah, Cobra One, go ahead.



Controller: Ok the, OK the direction ah protectin’ the major centers, when you’re overhead the major center, be it Pittsburgh in this case, you’re, you have intercept authority on any traffic in the area. And if, if the traffic does not respond to, ah, hand signals, divert procedures, anything like that, and they continue to press in a threatening manner towards the major center, you’re cleared to engage.



Cobra One: Cobra copies.



113. New type of war



Unknown: This is a new type of war, that’s what it is.



114. 0911 National terrorist day



Surveillance Tech 1: Is today like a national terrorist day or something that we missed out on?



Surveillance Tech 2: Actually, ah, this is a day (indistinct) for a long time.

VA Secretary Visits Bethel

and Kwigillingok, to honor surviving members of the Alaska Territorial Guard.
In Bethel, at the City Office, Secretary Shihseki, hosted on his visit to Alaska by Senator Mark Begich held a listening session.
Not a big crowd, in fact the Vets there were outnumbered by VA and Senate staffers, but we certainly had the Secretary's attention.
The local VFW was well represented and questions included how to bring more village Vets into the VA system, especially since, as Buck Bukowski said, if a Veteran ISN'T collecting VA benefits, and they go tot he local hospital for services, then the cost comes off the top of IHS funding for the health provider.
Shinseki agreed and encouraged maximum enrollment in the VA - "Our budget is numbers driven," he pointed out.
I spoke up for Coast Guard LORAN Veterans and Navy guys stationed at Navy Radio Transmitting Facilities who, like Coasties, may have been exposed to dangerous levels of Xray energy from the final amplifier tubes in the transmitters we tended with such loving care. Shinseki promised to "get smart" on the issue.

MISSED OPPORTUNITY
It was pointed out to the Secretary and Senator that since the Alaska National Guard out here is now part of a Texas (yes, THAT Texas) airborne unit, and is being deployed to Afghanistan later this year, that the loss of a humvee full of Yup'ik soldiers could have a devastating effect on a single village.
Shinseki, General Shinseki agreed that while that is the risk of deploying Guard units, also said, "I don't see a solution."
Begich didn't respond.
I wanted to say...wait for it...
END THE WAR!

see her pee'ers nonplussed over tweets

The fanboys and fangirls at the see her pee website are in full damage control trying to calm the passengers of the good ship lollipop as things continue to spin out of control for the woman who was supposed to live in juneau but now owns a mansion in arizona.
Sure, a LOT of Alaskans move to arizona. Nothing new there.
I just hope she invites her nickel and dime supporters (who, as one pundit put it, cut back on the grocery budget to send her more money) to an all you can eat buffet with cactus juice on tap.
She won't. It's gonna cost a max donation to get through the gate.

He Shoots, He Scores

Why?

Petraeus Apologizes for Deaths of 9 Afghan Boys

“As soon as we heard about the attack on the village’s children, all the village men rushed to the mountains to find out what really happened,” said Ashabuddin, a shopkeeper from Manogai, a nearby village, whose nephew Khalid was among those killed.

“Finally we found the dead bodies. Some of the dead bodies were really badly chopped up by the rockets,” he said. “The head of a child was missing. Others were missing limbs.”

A Pilgrims Progress

State Secrets My Ass

Once again the Federal Government invokes State Secrets to cover up incompetency and idiocy, not to mention spending a lot of Our Tax Dollars.

The damage control follies have begun

As a prominent Alaskan blogger expresses her deep disappointment that anyone would even dream of pirating the book she helped write, before it hits the presses, the seeherpee'ers are calling the Frank Bailey tell some stuff manuscript hilarious.
Anyone want to hear how I made her cry one time?

Parse the piss out of this

And don't forget that dear old T(g)odd was a United Steelworkers Shop Steward on the Slope, so he learned head busting and thuggery from the best of the Union Bosses his (ex?) Old Lady so fondly speaks of in her fwitterbook thinger.
Union Brothers and Sisters, indeed.
Notice the plethora of links in an otherwise off-the-cuff post...when did twwwstlij learn HTML?

I always said I wanted a Mutual Fund made up of defense contractors

Apparently some in the Department of Defense agree!
If this story doesn't make you want to puke, I don't know what will.

LEAKED! The Safari Club Speech

From unidentified sources, we have received a copy of at least parts of the speech twwwstlij will deliver to that All-American organization, Safari Club International at their upcoming gun show.

"Thank you, Larry for that wonderful introduction. I especially appreciated your kind words about my daughters, and I want to share that one of the common phrases around our household- in fact my wonderful Dad Chuck first coined it many years ago when I was a small girl, and now Todd has taken it to heart, and its so good to hear you say it so often, git 'er done. Yes, its a favorite saying that is very meaningful to my family. Appreciate your patriotism, Larry. Dontcha love your freedom? So many of you here tonight. Carrying guns. Love it. Thank you, really.
During the private reception so many of you, so gracious, glad I made it. Yes, Todd is here. Todd, stand up. So pleased he could too be here tonight. He loves guns almost as much as I do.
You are such a wonderful crowd, reminded of an old saying, guns don't kill animals, hunters kill animals. And we are all hunters aren't we. Hunting is good, built America, noone more patriotic than the American Hunter, carrying his gun, dog along too lookin' for that food, that food for his family, to feed them and make them strong. And maybe, just maybe he might see a threat to his family or his community and what does he do? He uses his God given gun to protect them. Dog baying, coon treed, how American, that wonderful hunter doing his best for the country he calls home.
Now some of you know me. Yes, thank you, as you might know I was running in the Presidential Election a couple years ago. Thank you, God Bless You. And I ran, yesy I ran because I couldn't stand the thought of that sort of person trying to lead our country - and we all know which way this country is being led - and I knew that was how it would be and I wish, and I know you do too, that the election had turned out different.
Hunting is all about prizes, just like elections, and I repsect the wide range of prizes you give for catching famous animals and I just want you to know that of God opens that door for me I will be trying to catch a famous anmial myself in a couple of years.
I wonder of there is a Boone and Crockett prize for apes? 'Cuz I am gonna bag us one, for everyone, the biggest one I can find in a couple of years.
I can hear the coon dogs baying tonight, and it just gives me chills to think that I will be on that hunt.
You hunters have a lot to be proud of and I am proud to be one of you. I am sure you watched me shoot that caribou in Alaska. Have any of 'ya been to Alaska? Thank you, thank you, its a beautiful State and I hope more of you will get there soon. As Governor I did everything I could to help keep down the populations of wolfs and bears who as you know eat much more moose than people ever will, so more of you can come up to our beautiful State to hunt and fish. Believe me I saw plenty of bears when I was fishin' on my TV show. Aren't they magnificent creatures? And so warm when you walk on them as rugs on a cold winters day, too. Thank you. God Bless you.
I am just so glad to be here at your gun show, I just wish I had more time to spend there.
You hunters, your club, when you go on your hunts to places like the country of Africa, you do more for those people there than any foreign aid the government might send to them, When you go to Africa, you help Africans in their own country which is good, and President Obama needs to understand that the Second Amendment and your right to carry guns and to use them as you see fit does more for the African People than he ever will. Thank you. Thank you. Really appreciate it.

The term isn't "Can't Win for Losing," it's "Can't Win for QUITTING"

Oh Iowa, Ye hardly know her

and you really don't want to.

We'd like to thank the generous contributors

of In-Kind Services to the Campaign

Whose voice do YOU hear inside your head?

I just hear my CIA controller.
Other people hear Glenn Beck.

She demonstrates her immense skill in crisis communications

telling the tingly-legged Hannity that although reporters were calling her and T(g)odd within hours of the Tuscon shootings, she didn't feel it was appropriate to comment until they had "all the information. We didn't have all the evidence."
Well 'cmon. If you wanted to look like any sort of a leader you would have said you were shocked like all Americans were by the tragedy that is unfolding in Tuscon, that the prayers of you and your family, and indeed all Americans go out to the victims and their loved ones, and that you have full faith in the ability of law enforcement and the criminal justice system to do its work.
Thats all.
Would have shut a lot of people up, since any reporters calling you in all likelihood would have prefaced your comments with a "we asked xxx for her reaction..."

twwwstlij's "become radioactive" in some circles - Maybe even in Wassilla?

Hannity says.
And she talks about Martin Luther King, Jr.
But, prescience?
She quotes Dr. King, "A lie cannot live."
Then she says, essentially, ...And i believe that its not just going to be providence that tells what the truth is. We have to do our part...
Gonna 'fess up, are ya?

First eyebrow raised-

"We hear this talk" about civility

"I know it isn't about me personally"

hahahahaha
Bet Hannity bought THAT whopper hook, line, and sinker.
Actually, it IS about you, personally.

She admits they are "crosshairs"

telling Rupert Murdoch's buttboy Sean "Cutiepie" Hannity tonight that they were "crosshairs targeting" certain districts.
Funny, she didn't use the "S" word (surveyor) that I could hear.

REPEAT AFTER ME

People with guns kill people, with guns.

She also liked Obama's Energy Plan

It seems that twwwstlij thought highly enough about thinking logically and compassionately about our own ends that she signed a Proclamation (wswstblij)(when she was supposed to be living in juneau) as reported HERE.

This counts as torture under the Geneva Conventions

Float Coats save lives!

And white float coats make North Slope whalers look good.

The drumbeats begin

From deep in the jungle of Alaska's last wild-er-ness, the Matanuska Valley, the tribal ritual of cannibalism, carried out by the light of the soon to be seen full moon is in preparation.
Seldom viewed by the general public, in fact NEVER documented by the erstwhile National Geographic, long-time friend of the pre-pubescent boy until savages around the world took to wearing American Eagle t-shirts, the soon promised takedown of twwwstlij by parties yet named by them who knows should put to rest, once and for all, the messianic status of the Matanuska Maniac.
Stay tuned.

Have I shouted out to.....

the estimable Dirk Diggler yet?
If you haven't made the acquaintance, now is as good as any.

Yup, she shoulda kept her mouth shut

I read both speeches. You can find them easily enough.
Why an ex-Governor would make a self-serving speech on the day of a Memorial Service is beyond me.
Oh, wait, she's twwwstlij. Thats why she made her "speech."
The President's speech was pretty good and proves, once and for all, that her fanboys can't read. Just look at their presumptuous rantings on the see her pee website.
What a joke they are. Half of them can't spell and the other half pick on them about it.

Good call by Alaska's new Attorney General

America: Your Last Memory In A Terrorist Country!

If there's no flag in the constitution then the flag in the film is unknown.
There's no flag in the constitution.
Therefore, the flag in the film is unknown.
Burn every new and old flag that you see.
Burn your flag!
I bet you can imagine this in your mind with a faster speed.
Watch this protest in reverse!
Ask the local police; "What's your illegal activity on duty?".
If you protest the government then there's a new government from protesting.
There's not a new government from protesting.
Thus, you aren't protesting the government.
There's something important in this video: There's no communication to anyone in this location.
You shouldn't be afraid of the stars.
There's a new bird on my right shoulder. The beak is two feet and lime green. The rarest bird on earth, there's no feathers, but small grey scales all over the body. It's with one large red eye with a light blue iris. The bird feet are the same as a woodpecker. This new bird and there's only one, the gender is not female or male. The wings of this bird are beautiful; 3 feet wide with the shape of a bald eagle that you could die for. If you can see this bird then you will understand. You think this bird is able to chat about a government?
I want you to imagine a comet or meteoroid coming through the atmosphere.
On the other hand, welcome yourself to the desert: Maybe your ability to protest is from the brainwash of the current government structure

Paul Krugman is way out of line

and full of shit.
"Conscience of a Liberal" indeed.
He suggests an awful lot of influence on the part of twwwstlij and until we hear what this kid with big high school hair and an apparent belief in mind control has to say - lets hope they don't kill him, silently, like they did to the Oklahoma City bomber - lets lose the political overtones.
Look at his youtube channel (linked previously) and tell me what his politics are.
If he had shot up a school, or a grocery store full of just customers, or anywhere else, it would have been a blip on the news with no political ascriptions whatsoever. They guy gives every indication of being a nut, lets find out for sure, and back off the blame game.
ON THE OTHER HAND, I AM waiting to hear twwwstlij remark on the "Second Amendment Remedy" theme and express her proscription of violence towards anyone.
Wake me up when she does.

I just can't resist

For your entertainment, the Both Barrels Editorial Board (BBEB) will be offering up our "Pick 'O the Day" from twwwstlij's fanboy website.
Todays topic was short and sweet:
twwwstlij Reportedly Passes on Second Season for twwwstlij's Alaska
Briefly reporting the obvious, that advertisers have abandoned the hack, well known journo site Entertainment Weekly spreads the holiday cheer and, in fine fettle, the fanboys respond.
My fave of the evening? This spot of wisdom from illegalpointofview:
"She has a country to save sorry TLC
Run (REDACTED) Run"
(Please note, redaction made by the BBEB in the interests of National Security. Or, as they used to say on Dragnet, "names have been changed to protect the innocent."

John Boner is pathetic and deserves whatever he gets in the next two years

"It was good times in America for a while. A man could wait for his local congressman to get caught diddling a 16-year-old, make a run for his seat, and then spend the next 20 years getting hustled around the world on golf junkets and showered with campaign checks and apartments and corporate-jet flights, and nobody would utter so much as a peep of protest. Congress was an easy job for any man with a nice fairway stroke, a limited moral compass and a keen sense of bureaucratic loyalty; it was half an acting job and half clerical work, taking orders from industry captains and selling the resultant giveaway bills to your voters as principled blows for Adam Smith, the flag and the free-enterprise system. Back when America was still a feared international bully that was flush with borrowed Saudi and Chinese cash and could stand to blow a few hundred extra billion in public funds every year on budget-padding deals — back in the Bush years — John Boehner was the perfect candidate for congressional leadership, a lifetime company man who didn't give a shit about most Americans but could shed tears on national television on behalf of Jamie Dimon's bottom line.

Things are different now. America is so broke, there's no longer really any money in the Treasury to give away — the job of overseeing corporate handouts that used to belong to the leaders of Congress has now moved to the Federal Reserve, which itself is so broke that it has to invent dollars out of thin air before it can give them away to influential billionaires. This leaves congressional leaders with nothing to do but their ostensible jobs — i.e., fixing the country's actual problems — and few of the current leaders have any experience with that, Boehner being a prime example. The new speaker represents an increasingly endangered class of Beltway jobholders who know how to raise money and get elected, but not much beyond that. He now finds himself the party's last line of defense against millions of angry voters who, for the first time in recent memory, are at least attempting to watch what Congress is up to. The tee times are over."


Matt Taibbi: The Crying Shame of John Boehner

I must confess

no, it isn't hookers hahahahaha.
but I do spend far too much time on twwwstlij's fanboy website. Its hilarious.
There is a small group of Pee-bots that seem to not only worship her and her spiked heels, but would step in front of a bullet (or a pissed off massage therapist?) for her.
I suppose I could gin up a "best of" post but just for openers, you owe it to yourself to follow this "open thread" through all its iterations. I promise, cheap amusement.

Me and Todd have something in common!

We both have made her cry!
All I did was ask her a question.
All HE did was...

twwwstlij says AMERICAN IDOL is America at its best!

Really?
