OMG the IMF is SOL

It's been happening in slow motion since last January but it looks like the crash might actually be reaching it's climax. There are those that lament the fact that it can't happen here in the USA but from the start Syriza has been full of shit and trying, in every way possible, to run out on their tab. Repair_Man_Jack over at Red State NAILED it in his Switzerland and Syriza blog post on Jan. 27 (just days after Alex Tsipris started on his odyssey):
"It is then, when the loggerheads occur that all observers will realize that the alliance fueling the contemporary left is flawed at a core philosophical level. Those who possess power already are only willing to be generous with that which belongs to somebody else. Compare Al Gore’s charitable giving to the level of redistribution from other people he proposed in response to Global Warming. The Greeks allied to Alex Tsipris want everything that people who work very hard and save for long years have acquired, but they want to stiff the people they borrow from to acquire this largess. Right now I would not want to be Alex Tsipris and have to go ask a bunch of people like George Soros if they really mean it when they say they love the Common Man."
Now the mean old bankers in Switzerland (happiest country on earth) and Germany are holding fast and there's no one to turn to but Putin - and I'm sure there'll be no strings attached to THAT loan.


Syriza = Syria and warm water ports are important - just ask the Ukrainians.

The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson

She was "sexy", but "too much hard work." I'm a regular Fox & Friends viewer (mostly in protest of the other insipid morning programs like Today and Good Morning America) so over the years I've gotten to know Gretchen Carlson pretty well. Stuck between Steve and Brian she always seemed a prudish scold with an irritating, self-righteous demeanor that I simply put up with because I figured some people in the Fox audience actually liked her persona. It was obvious that Steve and Brian did not, but they were stuck with her like so many talking heads and had to make the best of it - which they did. Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view...

Blue Devils and Yellow Cowards

A few weeks ago Duke lost Coach K’s last game at Camron Indoor Stadium to the schools hated rival, North Carolina University, in an epic grudge match. It was an “ unacceptable ” finale for the maniacal ferret-faced competitor who created the 40 year dynastic Duke hoops program with 1,000+ wins and fists full of ACC and NCAA championships but for Tar Heels everywhere it was a day of retribution. Michael  William Krzyzewski, is a red-blooded All-American college basketball coach of Polish and Ukrainian descent who grew up in Chicago’s famous Ukrainian Village which is (or at least was) culturally very reminiscent of the Rus borderlands. That is to say that young S h-shef-ski   grew up as  far away (psychology) from Dixie as is possible while still living within the borders of the USA. That makes him the perfect choice to represent Duke University and the Yankee overachievers who emigrate to Durham for 4 years of education and networking before moving back to...
