Larry Phillips legislative aide, Leah Zoppi, emailed me to thank me for my earlier post, but also to correct a factual error:
Thanks for your post about Larry’s decision to support Councilmember Drago as a caretaker for the 8th District seat. However, I need to let you know it contains a factual inaccuracy. The decision would not have reverted to Governor Gregoire. That’s only the case for partisan positions, not non partisan positions as voters made the County Council. There is NO tiebreaker currently in place for filling County Council vacancies. Which means, if the Council remained deadlocked on the issue of filling this vacancies, the Council would have remained 4-4, with neither side having a majority and District 8 residents having no representative. This would have impacted the Council conducting business like reorg and passing legislation, and it would have left the people in District 8 with no one to turn to for advocacy on their behalf.
My bad.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Sounds to me like the Legislature needs to amend the law to allow the Governor to fill vacant nonpartisan county offices if the local legislative body fails to act within a certain amount of time. Otherwise, you could get a partisan deadlock over filling a nonpartisan vacancy, like the one we just saw with our highly partisan nonpartisan county council.

Rabbit @ 1:
That legislation will be in the hopper the first day of session, introduced by Rep. Scott White (D-46), and not only did Phillips know this before he had his aide tell less than the whole truth to Goldy, Goldy also knew it before his uninformed post, because I referred to it in an e-mail that I copied to Goldy.
I know this is true, Rabbit, because unlike you, and unlike Goldy, I actually talk to the people who are involved. All Phillips had to do was wait for this to happen. Gossett, Ferguson, and Patterson had no problem with it, because they knew this was coming, and neither did Executive Constantine, Senator McDermott, or the voters of the 8th Council District, because they all know this is coming.
Goldy wrote a dumb post to begin with, and an even dumber mea culpa, because he is L-A-Z-Y. You wrote two dumb comments because you are uninformed.

In a previous thread, ArtFart wondered how I could stoop to buying stock in a company like KBR, and Jason Osgood wondered why I refer to our whaling friends as “Japs.” The answer is:
Wingnut Christianity.
You see, although I’m a nativist at heart, I was raised in a Republican town and a wingnut church, and was indoctrinated in their system. And, man, do they ever have a system! Here’s how it works:
You’re already forgiven. Not only for all the shit you’ve done in the past, but also for all the shit you’re gonna do in the future.
Their explanation goes like this. There was a guy named Jesus Christ who assumed responsibility for all your sins, which is a lot like a rich uncle offering to pay your monthly credit card bills. When some Roman guys killed Mr. Christ, that canceled the IOUs you racked up in God’s ledger. So, you’re off the hook!
My sins are nothing compared to the raping, murdering, warmongering, stealing, and child molesting our wingnut friends have been up to. But not only have they been forgiven for all that, they’ve also been forgiven for everything they do between now and Judgment Day!
Well, I figured I went to their church, I could do that, too, so I went; and now I have my own “Get Out Of Hell Free” card! So, I don’t have to be perfect. I can get away with behaving like a Republican.
So I do.

Roger Rabbit spews:
“We regret our error” seems like a good headline to post this one under.
Rick Rescorla was born in Cornwall, England, in 1939. A natural athlete, he participated in boxing and set a school record in shot put. At age 18, he enlisted in the British Army’s parachute regiment, and served in Cyprus and Rhodesia. After military service, he joined the London police force and was a “bobby” for a while. But tiring of this, he moved to the United States and lived in a YMCA until he could enlist in the U.S. Army. This was in 1963. Volunteering for airborne training and officer candidate school, Rescorla went to Vietnam as an officer with the 7th Cav, where he participated in the Battle of LZ X-Ray and won a Silver Star for bravery. Lt. Col. Hal Moore called him “the best platoon leader I ever saw.”
After military service, Rescorla went to Oklahoma, where he earned bachelor’s, master’s, and law degrees, then went into the banking business. The S & L scandals of the 1980s prompted him to leave banking and go to work for Dean Witter Reynolds in New York City, which eventually merged with Morgan Stanley.
In 1992, Rescorla warned the Port Authority, which owned the World Trade Center, that terrorists might try to attack the pillars in the basement parking garage with a truck bomb, but was ignored. When the 1993 attack occurred, Rescorla helped evacuate the building — and was the last man out.
After Dean Witter merged with Morgan Stanley in 1997, Rescorla became Morgan Stanley’s headquarters security chief. He recommended the company move its headquarters out of the World Trade Center, but his advice was rejected. Rescorla then trained Morgan Stanley’s senior staff in evacuation procedures, conducting practice drills every 3 months.
Rescorla was supposed to be on vacation on September 11, 2001, preparing for his stepdaughter’s upcoming wedding in Tuscany. Instead, he was on duty that day covering a subordinate’s shift so the other man could go on vacation.
When the first plane struck the North Tower, Rescorla ignored building officials’ advice to stay put and began the orderly evacuation of Morgan Stanley’s 2,700 employees from 20 floors of the South Tower and another 1,000 employees from Building 5. Directing the evacuation with a bullhorn, Rescorla told the evacuees to ” … be proud to be an American … everyone will be talking about you tomorrow,” and sang “God Bless America” and “Men of Harlech,” a Cornish marching song.
By the time the second plane hit the South Tower, nearly all of Morgan Stanley’s employees had been evacuated, plus Rescorla assisted in the evacuation of many others. Morgan Stanley lost only 2 employees in the attack, besides Rick Rescorla and three assistants who accompanied him back into the building before it collapsed.
Rescorla is known to have reached the 72nd floor, and was last seen at the 10th floor, ascending upwards. His remains were never found.
The words of “Men of Harlech” go,
Men of Cornwall stop your dreaming;
Can’t you see their spearpoints gleaming?
See their warriors’ pennants streaming
To this battlefield.
Men of Cornwall stand ye steady;
It cannot be ever said ye
for the battle were not ready;
Stand and never yield!
This comment is posted in memory of a man who stood at LZ X-Ray and stood again at the World Trade Center, and never yielded.

@22 Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t see you standing there. I was busy posting. I hope I haven’t kept you waiting long. Now … do you want something?
Roger Rabbit spews:
My reason for posting the Rescorla comment in the “We regret our error” may fly over the heads of our wingnut friends, so I’ll explain it. Obviously, this is a reference to the fact the “powers that be” should have listened to Rescorla when he warned them about the possibility of a bomb attack in the parking garage; and, equally obviously — with the clarity of hindsight — Morgan Stanley’s bosses should have listened to him when he urged them to relocate from the building. But they didn’t. Luckily, Rescorla took matters into his own hands, doing what he could to ensure the safety of Morgan Stanley’s 3,700 employees in the World Trade Center. That was enough to save nearly all of them. Rescorla was one of only 6 Morgan Stanley employees lost in the attack. But, my God, what a loss. Yes, I’m sure they regret their error now. Hindsight always brings clarity.

On Christmas Day 1969, while walking point for his squad, Army Spec. John Baca decided not to shoot an NVA soldier he spotted sitting on top of a bunker, his AK-47 out of reach. Instead, he yelled at the man in Vietnamese to surrender.
I suppose some people would call him a “pussy” for not shooting the guy, and others might even call him a “traitor” for returning to Vietnam after the war to help build a medical clinic in a village near Hanoi. (One of the Vietnamese workers on the project was the former NVA soldier he didn’t kill in 1969.) After the war, Baca became an activist, working on Vietnam veteran and homeless issues; others might sarcastically label him a “do-gooder.”

As usual, puddinghead didn’t do any research, and is full of shit; and once again, Roger Rabbit has to clean up poodle’s factual mess.
This incident occurred at America West’s terminal in Phoenix Sky Harbor on January 11, 2002. TSA did not yet exist. Screeners, at that time, were airline or airport employees.
There was no “whackamole agent,” TSA or otherwise. Foss was detained by a group of “eight or nine or ten” security personnel. There was no policeman involved, either.
Foss couldn’t go through the metal detector because he had a pacemaker, so he was patted down, which is SOP in such cases. Foss didn’t customarily wear his medal, and wasn’t wearing it in the airport. It was in a pocket. The only reason he had it with him, he later said, was because he planned to give a speech at West Point.
In addition to the medal, Foss also had a keychain with a dummy bullet and a small knife in his pockets.
The security men made Foss take off his shoes and belt, and detained him for 45 minutes while they discussed what to do about these objects. The medal was considered a potential security threat because it resembled a martial arts weapon of the sort seen in movies. There’s no indication they considered Foss a threat. In all likelihood, they were covering their asses — if they let this stuff through and some higher up questioned it, their jobs might be on the line. They made Foss mail the keychain and pocketknife home but let him take the medal on the plane.
Foss either knew, or should have known, the dummy bullet and knife would cause problems at the security checkpoint. But the fact no one in a group of eight to ten security men recognized his Medal of Honor for what it was is sad. As Foss said, this isn’t about respect for him, it’s about respect for the medal.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@49 continued — To understand this, you need to understand the living MOH recipients — there are currently 92 of them — are without exception modest men. To a man, they downplay their own deeds and redirect your attention to countless fellow soldiers who never received recognition. The medal, to them, represents those men more than themselves. When they ask for respect of the medal, it is not respect for themselves they seek, but for the fallen who cannot speak.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@47 Well, that old guy on I-90 got a salute from me. First I climbed up on his tail to read the license plate (he was doing only 50), then I moved to the left lane and pulled up even with his side window, then I honked and when he looked at me I snapped him my sharpest military salute. Then I pulled ahead and left him behind me.

Hey Douchebag Steve,
If Herr Goebbels Dumb Bunny is in uniform when Puddy walks through the airport Puddy will thank him for his service.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@48 You can’t earn a Medal of Honor. It’s pretty arbitrary. Lots of people who deserve it never get it. Everything has to fall in place — there must be surviving witnesses, the commanding officer has to initiate it, the paperwork can’t get mislaid, etc.
Although the review process normally takes at least two or three years, in the case of my unit’s Medal of Honor recipient, I knew within hours of the battle that he was being nominated for it, because they brought the survivors in to battalion headquarters to prepare their written witness statements.
The military was relatively generous with awards during Vietnam; a total of 246 were awarded in the course of that war, compared to 464 for World War 2, which had 10 times as many casualties. In all wars, the majority are posthumous awards.
In Vietnam, you were practically guaranteed a Medal of Honor for getting killed by throwing yourself on a grenade to protect your buddies. In addition, two guys who did that and survived received it (the aforementioned Mr. Baca is one of them).
Since Vietnam, there have been 8 Medals of Honor awarded, all of them posthumously — 2 for the “Blackhawk Down” incident in Somalia, and 6 in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Bush administration was much more penurious with awards at all levels during the Iraq fighting.
In fact, during Vietnam, there were widespread feelings that all the medals were copiously awarded and thereby cheapened. I think this is questionable. America suffered 58,000 combat deaths in Vietnam. Some of the fighting there was extremely vicious. In my opinion, it wasn’t out of line to hand out Silver Stars and DSCs for the actions for which they were awarded. Anyone who thinks medals for valor were easy to come by, at the grunt level at least, wasn’t there. There may have been some abuse of awards to officers merely for the purpose of advancing their careers.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Most or all states issue special license plates to Medal of Honor recipients. Washington’s is robin’s egg blue with a circular field of white stars and the words “Medal of Honor” in white to the left of the plate and a single-digit license number on the right side of the plate. In other states, it’s different. Each state has its own design.

Where did Puddy say that Queen Steve? Putting words under Puddys hand Puddy didn’t write again. Golly Steve, you whined like a stuck BEEEE-YOTCH when you accused Puddy of doing that.
Read the dossier on Mohammed Atta. He was here illegally fool! In fact according to the INS, three of the 19 hijackers were here illegally on expired visas. Two were able to obtain valid visas despite being on U.S. intelligence agency watch lists. Now who was preznit then Steve?
Steven Emerson was the Executive Director, Terrorism Newswire, Inc., 26 Jan 2002 House Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, Subcommittee on Immigration and Claim, Congressional Hearing, met with Congress on their International terrorism and immigration policy meeting.
“An absence of a vigilant media has allowed terrorists to anchor themselves and operate here.” Well we know what bent the media has… Libtardo bent.
We found out through the 9/11 Commission foreign consular officers did not have access to FBI criminal databases since 1993. Now after the 1993 WTC bombing we were promised this would be fixed. The commission determined the 1993 World Trade Center bombings revealed those terrorists had used our poor immigration screening procedures and our broken visa system. They exploited it to the max. The system wasn’t fixed Steve. They got in.
See ya Steve.
