"Taxi of Jedaya"

It's all explained now. The protesters in Libya are not only under the influence of Bin Laden but 'al qaeda' is handing out some sort of hallucinogenic drug called the 'taxi of jedaya.' So says Gaddafi.

The first thing we hear is him talking about drugs that have been given to protesters to cause them to turn against the regime. He says there are no protesters over 20. These "kids" have been given a specific drug called the "taxi of jedaya" that makes them feel high and they start misbehaving.






We laugh but this is no more crazy than what we hear daily from our own leaders and media.

Obama on Libya: “the suffering and bloodshed” as “outrageous,” “These actions violate international norms and every standard of common decency.”

Not much different than U.S. intervention in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq, eh Barry.

Hillary Clinton on the Iran protests: "Off the streets, the regime's leaders have targeted human rights defenders and political activists, and authorities have recently rounded up ex-government officials and their families; former members of parliament; clerics and their children; student leaders and their professors; as well as journalists and bloggers." Clinton's statement said the United States "remains deeply concerned by the persecution of Iranian citizens at the hand of their government."

No word of a Clinton apology to Ray McGovern.

U.S. official on drone attacks in Pakistan: "There hasn't been a single non-combatant casualty since last summer. And it's ridiculous to think that you can't go after lower-ranking terrorists who, among other things, are targeting American forces in Afghanistan -- not to mention our homeland."

Rahm Emaneul's election and the Hollywood connection: Little bro {Ari Emanuel} was instrumental in raising a nice portion of Rahm's reported $12 million war chest, which dwarfed the competition

One of my favorite (printable) Rahm quotations is his observation that the talk in his home when he was growing up led him to believe that the Democratic Party "was one of the 10 lost tribes of the Jewish faith."

The Sunstein/Vermeule article: The authors contend that conspiracy theorists suffer from “cognitive blunders” and “crippled epistemology”. Using psycho-philosophic parlance they are saying those failing to accept the official story of the 9/11 Commission, leading members of which admitted it was “set up to fail”, cannot think straight.

Raymond Davis saga: US warns of moving International Court: US officials have indirectly warned that their country could approach the International Court of Justice (ICJ), if the spat over their ‘consular employee’ Raymond Davis, is not resolved in accordance with the Vienna Convention. US diplomatic officials on Wednesday continued to insist that Davis was a member of the ‘technical and administrative staff’ of their mission in Pakistan and hence immune from criminal prosecution.

Alleged dolls and baby carriage terrorist arrested in Texas: A young college student from Saudi Arabia studying chemical engineering in Texas purchased explosive chemicals over the Internet as part of a plan to hide bomb materials inside dolls and baby carriages to blow up dams, nuclear plants or the Dallas home of former President George W. Bush, the Justice Department said Thursday.

You get the picture.

Now where can I hail that "taxi?" High and misbehaving ... sounds interesting.
