    Boeing CEO says job transfers will strengthen company

    Boeing chief executive Jim McNerney acknowledged Wednesday that planned transfers of thousands of engineering jobs out of the Puget Sound region are “controversial” but insisted that the moves will “strengthen our company, strengthen our engineering capability.”

    Now THAT’S some real, high-quality bullshit right there. You’ve got to pay LOTS and LOTS of money to get that kind of unmitigated crap.

    Fuck McDonnell-Boeing.

    Requiem for a Dreamliner?

    by James Surowiecki

    Here’s the money-shot:

    …The Dreamliner was supposed to become famous for its revolutionary design. Instead, it’s become an object lesson in how not to build an airplane.

    To understand why, you need to go back to 1997, when Boeing merged with McDonnell Douglas. Technically, Boeing bought McDonnell Douglas. But, as Richard Aboulafia, a noted industry analyst with the Teal Group, told me, “McDonnell Douglas in effect acquired Boeing with Boeing’s money.” McDonnell Douglas executives became key players in the new company, and the McDonnell Douglas culture, averse to risk and obsessed with cost-cutting, weakened Boeing’s historical commitment to making big investments in new products. Aboulafia says, “After the merger, there was a real battle over the future of the company, between the engineers and the finance and sales guys.” The nerds may have been running the show in Silicon Valley, but at Boeing they were increasingly marginalized by the bean counters.

    Under these conditions, getting the company to commit to a major project like the Dreamliner took some doing. “Some of the board of directors would rather have spent money on a walk-in humidor for shareholders than on a new plane,” Aboulafia says.

    Assholes.

    Fuck McDonnell-Boeing.

    In Missouri, GOP legislators are trying to impeach the Democratic governor for ordering the state revenue department to accept joint federal income tax returns from gay couples who were legally married in other states. They claim this violates an amendment to the state constitution that bans same-sex marriages.

    Meanwhile, investigators say a West Texas fertilizer plant explosion that killed 14 people and leveled the surrounding neighborhood was preventable and the company did not have a required sprinkler system in place.

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: Regulation? We don’t need no frickin’ regulation! If government got off the backs of businesses, everything would be fine.

    Meanwhile in real news…

    A spokesperson instead released the following statement: “When carrying breast milk through security checkpoints it is treated in the same manner as liquid medication.”

    Obummer’s idiot TSA agents wouldn’t even look at their own regulations. Hypocrites. Just like their leader… Obummer… they don’t need to follow laws or regulations!

    The TSA is a good example of what happens when overbearing management writes up employees for every petty deviation from “the book” including untied shoelaces and needing to piss before their break time.

    Meanwhile in real news…

    The senator readily referred to the Bundys and their supporters as “domestic terrorists,” but the current administration is reticent about applying the same term to Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who admitted to slaughtering more than a dozen people in 2009 at Fort Hood in Texas. What does this tell us about our government and its perceptions and alignments?

    …
    and
    …

    The fact that the ranchers were well armed and willing to literally fight for their rights probably tempered the enthusiasm of the federal forces to engage in further aggression. It was clear from the body language and from some of the reported verbal responses of the government forces that they were not prepared to engage in lethal combat with fellow Americans.

    Well said Dr. Carson!

  13. 13

    Yeah like Obama personally supervises TSA agents …

    Same argument you libtards made against GW Bush in 200X (name the year and the “offense”) anytime guvmint employees did something stooooooooooopid!

    Meanwhile in real news…

    GMA news reader Dan Abrams explained, “Special authorities are creating a special crime-fighting unit in Chicago after a shocking spike in street violence.” [MP3 audio here.] He noted that among the victims were “six children and two more teenagers overnight.” On Today, Willie Geist explained that five children were shot in a park on Easter Sunday. Even though CBS allowed no time for tragic news out of Chicago, the network’s morning show devoted four minutes to a possible maple syrup shortage.

    And who runs Chicago? Rahmbo Deadfish Emanuel! Obummer’s ex-chief of staph!

    @12 It’s safe to say the federal agents, unlike these yahoos, didn’t want a bloodbath. At some point, though, the government has to deal with armed insurrections one way or another. Sovereignty is all about having an army and being willing to use it when someone else takes over your land and asserts they, not you, are running things there. This isn’t much different from Russian thugs seizing government buildings in Ukraine. If the Ukrainian government doesn’t evict them, then Ukraine isn’t a country and doesn’t have a government. This isn’t going to turn out well for the Bundy militia. Uncle Sam has jets, bombs, napalm, cluster bombs, tanks, artillery, paratroopers, and Marines. Bundy has about a thousand guys with handguns, shotguns, rifles, and surplus store cammies and flak jackets.

    VA Health Care Scandal

    “At least 40 U.S. veterans died waiting for appointments at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care system, many of whom were placed on a secret waiting list [that] was part of an elaborate scheme designed by Veterans Affairs managers in Phoenix who were trying to hide that 1,400 to 1,600 sick veterans were forced to wait months to see a doctor, according to a recently retired top VA doctor and several high-level sources.”

    Wait for it, Puddy’s going to blame Obama, as if POTUS personally oversees every federal facility and supervises every manager in every federal agency.

    Oh IDIOT Wabbit, you forget, in your old aged senility, every time something went wrong under GW Bush y’all blamed GW Bush for it. It’s very simple… Obummer gets the glory on HA DUMMOCRETINS, butt never gets the blame. Hypocrites! Puddy sees it correctly!

    Ahhh the crazed clueless cretin@22 makes an appearance…

    Once again nuthin useful was said! Sure is sad such DUMMOCRETIN idiots visit this blog! It seems he’s this stoooooooooooooopid in real life!

    Oh no another rich DUMMOCRETIN in an alleged Ponzi Scheme? How come you don’t hear about rich conservatives like the Koch Brothers in alleged Ponzi Schemes? Because they have ethics that’s why!!! They employ tens of thousands of people! Why do money managers do? Oh wait… that’s the type OWS Racist Fraggy hates, unless of course they are DUMMOCRETIN!

    Remember this DUMMOCRETIN jackASS spoke at the 2012 DUMMOCRETIN convention!

  27. 27

    Seems the Politicususa fools don’t get it. Well they are DUMMOCRETINS so that explains 99% of their lunacy.

    Scary land Deal Reid is using his guvmint twitter account to attack private citizens. Ted Cruz and Rand Paul are attacking present or past guvmint employees. Big difference. Of course rujax favrit web site is populated by idiots who don’t comprehend this!

    Meanwhile in other news… Heard this yesterday on the radio driving in the Midwest to the job site. That’s Obummer’s IRS!

    The report reveals that the Internal Revenue Service gave a total of $1 million in bonuses to 1,150 workers who owed back taxes between October 201o and December 2012. The IRS paid out an additional $1.8 million in bonuses to workers facing other kinds of disciplinary problems over the same period, including improper use of government credit cards, drug use, threats of violence and unemployment-benefits fraud, according to the Associated Press.

    Amazing how Obummer’s IRS handles things!

    In a somewhat similar vein, one of OkCupid’s questions reads as follows: “Would you strongly prefer to go out with someone of your own skin color/racial background?” I was struck by the not inconsiderable number of people who answered “yes”—including some people I know “in real life,” many of whom are hilariously self-righteous about their enlightened political views. – PuddyEmphasis

    Well what do you expect from DUMMOCRETINS…? Do as I say not as I do always comes to the forefront!

    OkCupid… the website of political correctness. Brendan Eich comes to mind!

    Meanwhile over at SCOTUS… Sotomayor went nuts. Remember this from the Daily Beast? Now tie it together with PMSNBC on other libtard media response to Sotomayor on the case… You need great grades to get into the great schools. Why are inner city children not getting great grades? Because the AFT and NEA only care about getting DUMMOCRETINS erected and not about the children. Great grades to get into great schools start in the classroom. When you teach to the lowest common denominator your get the lowest common grades because DUMMOCRETINS don’t want children to “feel bad”. When they don’t get promoted at the job because Johnny can’t add they’ll feel really bad! You HA DUMMOCRETINS wanna see the AFT president’s speech about politics over children again? Or just ask the crazed clueless cretin for a PuddyReplay!

    Inner city schools suck and DUMMOCRETINS like Sotomayor want to make it right by judicial fiat and force instead of making inner city DUMMOCRETINS more accountable to how they waste American taxpayer $$$ in schools. How much does WA DC spend on the average student and what are their test scores again?

    Seems the media is having another GWBush gravitas moment! Who writes these “talking points”?

  32. 32

    Meanwhile in real news… The more you learn about Scary Land Deal Reid the more you despise this DUMMOCRETIN! The kind of DUMMOCRETIN OWS Racist Fraggy should despise. Instead he’s cheered!

    Looks like Puddy has indigestion again and has been vomiting in this thread overnight. You can always recognize his vomit because it has a uniquely putrid odor.

    @23 No, I only blamed Gee-Dub for stuff he personally authorized, like starting unnecessary wars on phony pretexts fabricated from lies, torturing people and lying about it, and spying on law-abiding American citizens and lying about it, plus I criticized his general incompetence (he fucked up everything he touched).

    @32 Still defending armed insurrectionists who threaten law enforcement officers with guns, and use women and children as human shields? No surprise there; that’s your lameass speed.

    Interesting, the places most interested in interracial dating are more likely in the south.

    According to the Pew Research Center survey, black men are two times more likely to marry someone of another race or ethnicity than Black women, though the opposite is true among Asian women and men.

    Laura Noble, 46, a black woman who lives in Virginia, the 8th state on InterracialDating.com’s list.

    “I think that many conservatives are stereotypically misrepresented in their interest of other races, and their geographic location may be more racially homogeneous, therefore if they want to date outside their race, they need to do it online.”
