Every officer that signed off on this “no evidence” conclusion should be guarding the entrance to a petting zoo for the remainder of their careers. – Anonymous
The big news this week was the death of Margaret Thatcher, and I seem to be one of the few people on the internet who does not have some strong opinion about her one way or the other (she was a politician; ’nuff said). But whether you loved her or hated her, you will probably enjoy the sight of a prime minister quoting Monty Python in today’s first video from Mike Siegel (who also provided “nukes” and “cosplay”). The second video is my all-time favorite comic strip imagined as a “dark, gritty” movie as per current fashion; it and all the links down to the first video were supplied by Radley Balko. Other links between the videos were contributed by Jesse Walker (“new sun”), Luscious Lani (“girl and cat”), Mistress Matisse (“Anonymous”), and Kevin Wilson (“honest fat”).

Despite the success of her dead parrot parody, Mrs Thatcher did not see why the original was funny, nor did she understand why her remarks would be so well received.
I don’t know about all that; all I know is that I find it terribly amusing when chief executives of major nations make references to zany comedy gags of the Mod Era.
She really “didn’t get it”.
My favorite Margaret Thatcher story is the one about the two Iron Maiden album covers. Because she was being called the Iron Lady, they did this album cover:
They weren’t really being political though, just their usual offensive selves, and they got some grief for it. So for their next album cover, they did this:
I don’t know, I like their sense of humor, but I’m childish that way.
Nuclear power has probably taken as many lives as it has “saved”, so no news here.
More junk science like that “golden rice” hoax.
Only in leftist nations my dear.
Nuke power is awesome – as a former nuclear submariner I can attest to that fact. People don’t understand it – because “faux” scientists who are really just anti-Western propagandists bad mouth it all the time.
You can put a nuke reactor … IN MY BACKYARD. I slept snuggled up all nice and tight and warm to one for many years on submarines. I have two kids of my own and testosterone levels that consistently come back on my bloodwork flagged “HIGH”.
Jeff explains to us that the best material for a comedian is true stuff. An example of this is when a man told him, “We swore that if we ever met you, we had to tell you about the time we went to visit my wife’s family for Thanksgiving, and while we were there, her brother got his nipple bitten off by a ______.”beaver. “I said, ‘You have my attention.’ That’s not really something you can walk away from at that point. You’re almost required to say, ‘How did that happen?’ They were happy to tell the story, too. Apparently, the brother and his friend were driving in the truck, a beaver ran out in front of them and they hit it and it landed in the ditch. They decided that they had to get this beaver to take to the taxidermist, ’cause we all know how pretty it looks on a Thanksgiving dining room table holding that turkey up! [imitates stuffed beaver] So he went down into the ditch, found the beaver, picked it up by the tail, and said, ‘Look at it. It ain’t cut up, or bloody, or nothin’!’ And apparently, ‘Nothin’ is the word that brings a beaver back to consciousness. The animal then lurched forward and bit his nipple off. Did not bite it, bit it off. O-F-F, off. That is a new kind of hurt right there. It is so rare that I was at a loss for words; the only reply I could come up with was, ‘I bet that’s the only time in history the headline of the paper could include the words ‘beaver’ and ‘nipple’ and nobody would be offended by it.'”
Thatcher …
Let me tell you the woman was no beauty queen so you can’t accuse me of shining it on here based on he fact that I had fantasies about her. Quite the contrary – she was the anti-thesis of my sexual fantasies.
BUT – what I liked about her was the fact that she was feminine and also hard-nosed. She was a woman … a rare woman … who could do better than just “hold her own” when dealing with the boys using THEIR rules.
She’s the rare exception … yet all these panty-wastes out there feel they have to denigrate her and why?
Because these idiots believe that Margaret Thatcher did not do her part in disassembling Western Civilization’s superiority on this planet. Thatcher didn’t do her part to make Marxism look good by placing chains on Britain’s capitalist machinery.
And in fact – she stood with Ronald Reagan and helped to collapse the Soviet Union – the crown jewel of Marxism.
God Dammit – the woman did NOT do her part to support the Marxist Left so, at the very moment of her retirement from this world – she needs to be completely trashed. That’s really the whole thing behind these hyperventilating condemnations of her.
Her and Reagan were one helluva a team. I’m sorry – I LOVED those days!
You’re awesome!
