The Razor

Just discovered some excellent Photoshop satire at the Panopticist:

Genius. Pure Genius.

North Korea is readying to test a missile that can hit the West Coast.
It says that it’s not bound to a missile testing moratorium in this article.

I think that it’s a perfect time to test America’s ABM capabilities and try to shoot the thing down.

If we miss, we’ll lose some diplomatic face in exchange for data from a real-life situation. But if we blow the thing up… Kim’s nukes won’t be seen as such a threat and we’ll look even tougher.

It’s a risk worth taking if I were Bush.

“Well, many’s the long night I’ve dreamed of cheese—toasted, mostly . . . ”

I just FTP’d up the home page, so be sure to visit therazor.org/saddam2008/ for the latest.

Note:
This is a parody site designed by a man who believes that, given the chance, he would have the moral duty to put a bullet in the brain of Saddam. In the 1980’s I wrote letters as part of Amnesty International campaign against his regime. I protested when he invaded Kuwait in 1990, and later wrote critically of the Bush I administration for allowing this man to stay in power.

This man is evil and responsible for killing more Muslims than any Jew or American, living or dead.

After reading yet another comment from a moral relativist that Iraq was “better with Saddam in power”, I came up with this idea.
More to come…

Update:

I hate to admit it, but I like Instapundit and use it like a “frontpage” for the Blogosphere. Reynolds is a pretty astute observer with centerist politics like my own. He’s also popular and recently published a book – two things which I’ve tried and failed at. So I’ll admit my jealousy up front.

It’s been an especially tough week when every post of his has been about his new book Army of Davids.

Click here to view entire image and see why I think that Reynold’s has gone a little bit overboard promoting his book this week.

No surprise really.
Look at the people in this photograph carefully.
The only thing that would pacify this crowd would be a truckload of American visas.

Also, where are the women?

UPDATE:

Also, where are the women?

Once again the MSM has played the propagandist for Islamic extremists by censoring reality.
Here is the original, unedited version of the above photograph – a Razor Exclusive!

What liberal media?
This liberal media…

That took 2 hours of Photoshop, but it was worth every minute.

My first reaction? So f***ing what. The bastion of elitism that clothes its anti-semitism and anarcho-fascism while masquerading as the champion of the oppressed will now be open to military recruiters. According to the dean, it was a difficult decision because of the military’s policy of “don’t ask, don’t tell” regarding gays. However the threat of losing $350 million in federal aid was an even bigger one, so the dean bit the proverbial bullet and decided to let the mean old military-industrial complex have at its multicultural youth elite.

Let me state that I flat out don’t like the “Don’t ask – don’t tell policy”. I’ve known gays, and I’ve known soldiers, and I’ve also known gay soldiers. I am also a student of military history, and know that homosexuality didn’t keep the Spartans from savaging the Greeks, nor the Japanese Samurai from whipping the tails of the invading Mongol horde. However it’s hard for me to argue with military men who were lobbing grenades in Da Nang while I was stateside watching Scooby-Doo, so I’ll leave them to decide the issue for themselves. If the military brass isn’t happy with gays in its ranks, who am I to argue them.

That said, does the military even want a bunch of Harvard fops? Since Harvard has become one of the few places in the country where an avowed racist can get a decent paycheck, and the admissions motto of the place has become “whites and Asians need NOT apply thank you”, Harvard isn’t necessarily brimming with multiethnic Marine Corps talent. Imagine the scene: Colonel: “Lieutenant, take your squadron and pacify that bunker on that hill.” Lieutenant: “But sir, you are a white man, member of the establishment, and my men and womyn are oppressed minorities who share a common bond of victimization with our brothers and sisters in that bunker. Perhaps we should hear their grievances out at a UN sponsored conference instead.”

Harvard has swung so far to the extreme left that it has become embarrassingly easy to make fun of. A recent survey done by Harvard researchers discovered that high achieving kids won most of the scholarship money set aside for merit scholarships. They defined the fact that smart kids who do well get rewarded for their work as a problem. Their solution? I’m not kidding: redefine ‘merit’. Perhaps we should also redefine Harvard tuition, or better yet, redefine the spending priorities of our government to shift the $350 million from Harvard to the average community college where it will do a lot more for our communities. And while we’re at it, maybe we’ll get Harvard to throw open its doors and admit anyone who can breathe, thereby redefining the term ‘elite’? I couldn’t in good conscience hire a recent Harvard grad and don’t know anyone else who could. Send me one of those merit scholarship winners…

Anyway, I’ve taken it upon myself to design some recruitment posters for the sorry-assed recruiters who are going to be given the Harvard gig. Special thanks to www.somethingawful.com for inspiration.

Gratuitous photo of North Korean Leader Kim jong-il.

The headline pretty much says it all: Summer time isn’t really a time for news junkies – either the consumers, the producers or both. Think about it; a year ago we were obsessing over Gary Condit and the missing Chandra Levy. Today we are worrying about what should be done to “help” the stockmarket (we say: aside from expensing stock options, nothing. It’s called a business cycle folks! Just like we learned in Econ 101 while rolling joints in the back of class. Governments should stay out of markets: when they don’t it’s called socialism!)

Looking over the site, it’s clear that the Summer folder has been thin – and that’s not for lack of effort on our part. While you sleep we craft the finest logical daisy-cutters for you, to be deployed against the pesky appeasement and relativist minded whenever and wherever you find them. But our brains are mush, that’s the conclusion that we have reached.

Chances are, so is yours. While the Democrats try to resuscitate their populist argument with the demise of Worldcom, we military strategists are left with what, Rummy’s decision to protect Karzai with American troops so that an Afghani doesn’t cap his ass? Sharon’s smackdown on the territories keeps the psychotic death cult of Palestinian society at bay. Even the latest attack in Kashmir failed to incite India to glass over Islamabad; two days after the attack it was impossible to find it even mentioned on the web.

Meanwhile here in the USA we’ve got the 20th Hijacker making the American Legal System look like a well-starched baby-sitter. His statements make the Unabomber sound as coherent as Winston Churchill. Which is better than Tom Ridge is looking at the moment. Even those of us who hate John Ashcroft miss his Darth Vader persona when talking about the detainees at Guantanamo.

Speaking of lost souls… We’ve already said our piece on John Walker Lindh – may he rot in hell – and feel less than inspired when contemplating anything that doesn’t involve the California-Taliban with anything but a date with Death.

So what do we do, except see Steve Irwin’s Crocodile Hunter (Steve likes the A-10 Warthog so we know he’s one of us), read Salon’s Sex Issue, and wait for our boys and girls in the Forces to move enough material within striking distance of Baghdad?

We can look forward to the Fall, which should bring us Survivor 5 as well as Gulf War 2: The Sequel, the first anniversary of September 11 (a day which should be considered for holiday status), new West Wing episodes and of course, the mid-term elections.

So let your brains dribble out of your ears, and bear with us while we try to come up with content for you in between frisbee throws and visits to our friends over at the Voice of the Commonwealth. The news is slow – just like it was last year – but it’s not going to be slow for long…
