Ever wonder what a “moderate-extremist” could be?
Now Tubularsock, knows what ‘moderate” means.
And Tubularsock knows what “extremist” means.
And Tubularsock knows what “give me a break!” means.
Really? A “moderate-extremist”.
Now, that has to be one fucked up person!
Do you think that a “moderate-extremist” would be the one to cut off only three-quarters of your head?
Do you think that a “moderate-extremist” only massacres half of a village?
Do you think that a “moderate-extremist” is ONLY a moderate so he can get more weapons and be able to sell them to the EXTREMISTS for a profit?
That is called (in economic terms) the Middle-Man.
You see Congress loves the free enterprise system. So they voted for the middle man and why not? Congress plays to the middle for votes and then returns to the self-serving people they are. NO party excepted!
Now Tubularsock is not expecting any change in this “moderate-extremist” bull-shit but it is being brought to your attention as one of the many pearls of unexamined bull shit that is just sitting everywhere until you don’t even realize that it saturates your consciousness.
It’ is like “the jobless recovery” and “humanitarian-bombing” ………. sure ….
Kind of like bombing for peace or the debt relief that our noble, savage leaders love to proffer. I’ve also heard the term extreme moderates. Nothing moderate about their extremism. I really like the graphic, Tubular. Like birds on a barbed wire are we.

Let’s bomb some carpets, shall we?

Great idea 47! The only issue we’d have is the thread count. If the thread count was high we’d need bunker-busters. Yet if the carpet was purchased at WalMart with a 20% off coupon we’d only need a grenade. See how complex the government has become. Thank you for your comment.

To quote Frank Zappa, “Politics is the entertainment branch of industry.” The fucked up assholes who come up with this bullshit are paid extremely well for their services.

Tubularsock, Thanks for this wonderful image — one I may never get out of my head now. I’m generally opposed to capital punishment, but I could be persuaded to make an exception for people who so brutally abuse our language and insult our intelligence in this way. – Linda

Well wolfess, when you are cutting off “heads” no telling where all of it will land! Now, will Tubularsock step up to the plate and even discuss the “other-head”?
Oh, why not. Under the circumstances Tubularsock feels it may not be such a good idea to ask ISIS to be giving head. It may be way better to head for the hills! Just say’n.
