Carnival season kicks off in Venice, Nice and Viareggio:
A float depicting US President Barack Obama with his hat topped off by a man dressed as Osama Bin Laden, and entitled Barack-Adabra and the Great Circus of the Fleas, is seen at the Carnival parade in Viareggio, Italy [AP]
Don’t worry …they REALLY smacked Silvio around:
A huge paper mache float depicting Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi entitled Rexpubblica is seen at the Viareggio Carnival [EPA]
At least Obby got to keep his skin.

Another Libya site: http://revolution2.moonfruit.com/
hmmm perhaps some ‘barrier cream’ is in order for those boyos ….to keep their urine from eating their flesh…might I suggest A & D barrier cream? ….oh and let me go call up the A & D folks to get my BIG PHARMA KICKBACK … fuck em all but 6, shove your kickback up your fuckin ass!
from the moonfruit site:
rest in peace, dearests …………………(and FUCK’EM ALL BUT 6!)
oh… Ban Ki Moon is “outraged” and Hillary is “alarmed”. She demands it stop. Wight away now ….
Obslob is incommunicado for Pretzel Day. I think Euros ar worried that Qaddafi will unleash a mass of immigrants into boats. And not much else….
😆
We can be so proud! Of somebody ELSE!!
;0( ……
Earlier they said that Egypt had drawn back their mil from the border and had two field hospitals set up…
and now:
From the LibyaFeb17 site….
CNN’s Ben Wedeman was reporting from Libya earlier.
At least Obamalama didn’t go to Vail with his family for the weekend. So, there’s that.
She is into perfectly raked surfaces. Or so I gather.
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi appears on state TV
Pic of him with an umbrella. Bullet-proof?
Sure. That sounds plausible…
ahhhh …but nonetheless, ..obombster and mickey ….are still likely walled off, in their own “snow” drift ….. don’t even want to know who else accompanies [sic (and sick)] them in that snowed in fortress,…. the image of shrub and condi, in leather, in the same room (let alone a foursome or more (poppy and babs, not quite up to the activity ..voyeuring in the corner …. let alone BIll and Hill, et al …and all the “MUST BE READ TO BE RELEVANT BLAWWWGHERS ……..et al …..), still creeps me out ………
need I say? – ewwwwwwwwwwww ….nasty!
so sad, too bad …..;0( …:0)
what a perfectly ripe mango ….. ;0)
… executive director of the combative National Nurses Association, RoseAnn DeMoro …
I think ObSlob should worry.
One of the pieces I read at CPunch, think it was a new one this am, said there is no commentary, no interest in Obama nor any other national leader at the WI protests. NO signs asking “Where is Foundling” (snicker).
Randi Weingarten, who flew in and out, apparently urged the locals to make any and all concessions. Exactly what DeMoro nd the nurses were told here 6+ years ago. I suspect by Stern and whoever else.
Petraeus : Afghans Could Have Burned Their Own Children
To Make U.S. Bombings Look Bad.
a stage in the unravelling.
Life Coach Barry better get Petraeus state side. (As if Obama has any say in it ….)
oh wow… that was in the Washington Post.
Stuff IS unravelling.
call me old fashioned , but where’s the stake and the silver bullet for that nasty mother fucker, he may have lit his own offspring on fire, but, that is quite another subject.
Well, he’s all set for a presidential run!
:0) …. ;0(
I guess, you can only bomb the shit out of a country for so long before they go stark raving mad.
Kerry, Fresh from his failed mission to secure the release – not of a U.S. diplomatic corps employee, but of a Blackwater subcontractor is besieged by antiwar activists and other angry constituents at a meetup in Massachussets.
well they hanged La Kerry, in effigy iirc, in Pakistan.
Things can only get better!!
One result of the Guardian, which catnip posted, calling out Davis as CIA is that EVERYONE is now using it.
Yum.
😆
I think Obster has a headache. 😆
Oh its a LOSER ALLLL the way around.
Embassy employee..CIA..Blackwater.
Also really did wonders for Kerry’s Leftisher street-cred LOL.
Lose / Lose! Kinda Like Win / Win,
except for the totally LOSING aspect of it.
Lose Lose Lose LOSE LOSE that FUTURE!
Let alone contract-killer Davis: a minor distinction, he was mil before, but now in quite the delicious pickle, straight up charged with murder in Pakistan. With US Intel and the Pols going out of their way now to distance themselves from his inadvertant Blackwater ass. Or something like that. I wonder if he’s prepared to die for “plausible reliability”. I wonder if he has considered the unlikelihood of the ISI sheltering him now. Or the piss poor probability – and here’s a real Hero Sandwich – > of some low profit margin rescue operation even being thought about now by his buddies given the seller’s market for mercenary services in North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
Al Jazeera, live on the web, no problem whatsoever in telling it like it is wrt Obama “no where to be seen today” and Hillary “too little too late”
Had a clip from former UK FM Owen saying the UN Security Council should be called into emergency session “immediately, tonight” and Impose a no fly zone over Libya immediately. This was in a piece noting the international community – and the U.S. – clearly has the ability to enforce such a resolution given military resources based in Italy.
Ah yes our military bases:
Endorsed by Obama as a safeguard for peace…
AJ E did announce the UN Sec Council will meet…tomorrow night. :roll 🙄
Cue our latest Ricepuffy, Susan.
and Impose a no fly zone over Libya immediately.
yes because there are rumors (so far only that) that Italy dispatched two fighter planes to Libya, to fight FOR Qaddafi.
I slept most of the afternoon. This whole thing makes me want to jump out of my skin.
What the hell is wrong with humankind. Why? Over and over again.
Lifted this from L’Orange:
What will it take to put you in a car TODAY? (unspoken: little lady)
“I will put on a comfortable pair of shoes and I will walk on that picket line with you as president of the United States.”
😆 His shoes being made overseas of course,
cuz he ain’t wearin no bobos playin basketball. LOL.
And Kinda like wifey’s $540 dollar pair of “sneakers” .
By Lanvin
WHICH she wore – wait for it –
to a FOOD BANK. 😆
what’s moe they were UGLEEEE, as I recall.
Can you imagine if Laura B had done [been so stupid as to have done] such a thing.
Marcat @”And you know the US is just in total freak out. No matter what!”
Wondering who is going to be left standing to fuel the global war machine. i.e. your IDEX link.
oh there will always be arms dealers…. and makers. And war mongers.
I was thinking about the oil. Who will be holding the spigots when all the dust settles.
well SF has the current distinction of the highest price in the country (not just the state) for gas car fuel. 3.69 and I saw 3.93 for super unleaded or whatever the more expensive is…
The same segment said SUVs are still selling… LOL but it will slow when regular is at $4
Somebody will control it.
Al Jazeera programme Blood and Lust
raises the essential question of the how US military medicine is used as a force multiplier.
Has two medics featured that are… just lost IMO.
And footage of an attempted resuscitation of an Afghan National army KIA… yet no reason for the US Mil heroic measures dance: Anyone with medical training, let alone a field medic who watches it would know the guy had already bled out , was cleaned up and thoroughly field dressed for the footage to proceed from the landing zone.
A whole lot of ” This job, Our Job..” ETC.
The ethical questions raised by the reporter met with little but dismay and recital that US Military medicine is “there for the Afghans, too”… 🙄
It is so not going to go well when these vets come home. If they ever do..
Dominos!
Dun~ dunteDun~ DunteDundunDundun Dun.
Wherein the Brown Suit of Reform has not lost its sheen from that storied campaign.
The story accompanying the pic is a delightful hoot, with Hilarious falling all over herself –
oh what a scream!
Oh my, what an awful earthquake in New Zealand.
I think that death rate is going to rise, too many reports of numbers of people “trapped” in buildings…
Moving right along……….. Libyan envoy to India resigns…….
and the Iranian warships entered Suez Canal a few hours ago.
This is so classic.
So……… is that a fighter jet in your pocket Mr Cameron or are you excited at the sales prospects…
Ghadaffi on the tele again.
From RENOVATION Square. 😉
Really freaking out, too –
Where are the Drywall Guys!
Where are They NOW??!!??
Something like that…
with a reference to “greasy rats and cats” thrown in
AND an “offer to die as a martyr”.
Fuckin remodeling. It’s rough, dude.
Location of Libyan Oil Fields.
A majority in the East, over Egypt way…
Which he has already (Whoopsie) lost, so says FT and other sources..
He’s still goin on on the tube BTW, he was talking of opposition bombs falling on the Oil Fields.
NOW he’s reciting a list of crimes that will be met with the death penalty and stops himself to say he will not blame the young people tho. And resuming the de4ath Penalty litany now..Back to the rats and cats theme now…
It’s Reefer Madness!!
LIVE from RENOVATION Square!
I laughed so hard when you first described things like that. 😀 😉
::
LOL – > Ghaddafi just said – and this is almost an exact translation, too – The Libyan People could, ya know, just go and take the oil for themselves.
Sort of a Help Yourself Situation now…
Like a drive through?
Yes, still live from Renovation Square, where I have been protesting to get my own damn toilet now for 3 months.
Various signs my cat wears:
Don’t Dust on Me!
Meow Means NOW!
Reno Guys = Hitler!
“Almost Done”, My Ass!
oh very good!
“Cat on Strike”.
“Mama wants a litter box”
“Occupation Forces Need to Leave”
😆
I’ll be whipping those up for him.
Need to work on getting him to walk two-legged. Able to hold a sign, not just wear a sign.
Is there any ETA for toilet install? Any at all?
Is there any ETA for toilet install? Any at all?
2011 (?)
getting him to walk two-legged.
He’s at war with the Shop-Vac. The Shop-Vac is winning. It’s like one huge dust-sucking drone that attacks at random.
from what I read, the tribe in charge of the oil fields has threatned to stop it all, because of the attacks from Qaddafi against the people.
He has close to nothing left I imagine.
Can’t wait to see what comes of this…
That’s ok, saudis saying they’ll make up the difference for the War Inc.
No fuel. No wars.
we don’t get much from the ME. Other than rigging the oil markets (and I don’t care anymore, frankly, so many years of it – – and boom and bust)…. we get most from the Dutch, from Canada, from Venezuela, Mexico, etc.
JAPAN will be suffering if Libya shuts down the oil, but not us so much.
And Oil goes up anyway. The game is endless.
it is just so stunning…
… and not like things have slowed in other countries, either….
cut to Obby in Cleveland.
That back drop of “Winning the Future” is old already.
And too monotone.
That back drop of “Winning the Future” is old already.
Ship it off to Gaddafi. Shorten it to “WTF?”.
That back drop of “Winning the Future” is old already.
Not that much of a difference from Muammar’s pitch now..Except maybe for the length. Ghaddafi has already burnt out one translator on AJ-E but he’s still going.
AJ briefly interupted to say they are not sure if this Libyan State TV feed is actually live or pre-recorded…
It’s obvious that SOMEBODY has had way too much caffeine.
I’m just sayin’…
Ghaddafi did note Bangazi has been taken over..
really in some weird Anchorman in the FuhrerBunker zone now. Reading other media accounts as they come in..
AJE has cut away…
some weird Anchorman in the FuhrerBunker zone now
really
Oh I can relate. 😉
The irony is not lost on me. LOL.
hahahahah Lindorff has an update on Davis/Pakistan/not EVEN CIA but a contractor….
http://counterpunch.org/lindorff02222011.html
So………. How’s that big ”change” vote working?
AND Lindorff posts he may still be active SF, more than anything else.
Onward….
… as it dribbles out that at least two of the American Xtian bible dispensers died AFTER US forces boarded the yacht.
Davis.
With the Pols Kerry , Obby and Hill defending corporate assassins.
Were not they ALL against outsourcing jobs overseas?
And What about the werkin man?
They really need to get a Union in there, sort out the work rules, etc. No day-time murders over the lunch hour etc. No moonlighting off base without taking your pager and bogus papers.
Oh and they really need to get a better hat rack for the locker room: that jockitch vector between the DI and CIA, SOCOM and Eric Princes Amway Franchise: Xe aka Blackwater.
LET US RECALL That THATmultiple I.D. Crew: Prince’s Blackwater/ Xe are the same “folks” that Obama and Cons not only settled all outstanding legal action, but reinstated them and , with the charade of Obama announcing Iraq was Mission Accomplished 2.0, Obby simultaneoulsy proceeded to DOUBLE their murderous windfall free-for-all.
And make no mistake about it, just handed them a “have at” with the drone joy sticks.
NYT –
Yeh some Big Change – O.
He’s a War Criminal.
And his supporters are despicable.
::
All 4 U.S. Good-Lifers were killed on that prirated yacht off Oman..
At least we are spared the chest-pounding presser from Obby and Company when they shot and killed those young kids trying to surrender another boat last year.
