HALF-FULL REPORT 04/11/08

The HFR this week salutes Absolut Vodka for its absolute stupidity in running an ad depicting pre-1836 Mexico as a map of  "an ideal Absolut world."

absolut

These Swedish marketing geniuses were inundated with emails like the one I sent, informing them that I shall never, ever, buy a bottle of Absolut for the rest of my life.  I encourage you to make the same vow.

Yet the ad did perform a perverse good deed, reminding Americans of the pathological inferiority complex so many Mexicans have towards the United States, who think we "stole their land," and of the racist pathology of such groups as MEChA and La Raza.

And it provides us with a good opportunity to revisit TTP's original discussions of these pathologies in America's Curse (July 2003) and  Mexican Nazis (May 2005).  They're worth re-reading now.

The good news continues in South Korea.  The triumph this week of newly-elected president Lee Myung-bak's Grand National Party in parliamentary elections cementing Lee's majority control of the government means his plans for overthrowing Kim Jong-il's communist regime and unifying Korea can proceed.

These plans were first revealed a year ago in Regime Change in Korea and updated in the Half-Full Report 02/29/08 (scroll down to the fourth item).  Next week (4/18-19), Mr. Lee will be making a state visit to meet President Bush in the White House and at Camp David.  Nothing of the reunification plan will be disclosed.

But you can expect a headline-making announcement to emerge in the joint Lee-Bush press conference after their meeting.  I'm embargoed from telling you now, but I should be able to a day or so beforehand.  What I can say is that it will be very cool, and will enrage every Democrat rooting for America to lose in a place in the Middle East.

The HFR raises a glass of no-pity to the terrorist-loving Palestinians of Gaza.  On Wednesday (4/09),  Palestinian gunmen snuck into Israel and shot dead two civilian workers at the Nahal Oz fuel terminal supplying all the industrial fuel, gasoline, and diesel for Gaza's 1.5 million folks.

Israel promptly shut down all fuel deliveries to Gaza.  "Human rights advocates," as the media calls them, are naturally up in arms – not about the terrorist murders of innocent Israelis, but the discomfort suffered by the supporters of the terrorism. 

A "total collapse" of Gaza's transportation network and electric power is predicted within a few days.  Couldn't happen soon enough for the HFR.  Actually, it should have happened long ago.  After all, every time there's a Palestinian suicide attack that slaughters Israelis such as at Dimona last February, the ghouls of Gaza dance in the streets in celebration. 

It's way past time for all Israeli fuel, power, food, et al, to be shut off permanently.  Then give Gaza to Egypt.

The HFR raises a glass of schadenfreude to Oprah Winfrey, who has seen her popularity and tv-show ratings take a nose dive since she came out in support of Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.  She publicly endorsed him in May of last year, and her ratings have been heading south ever since. 

What's not discussed in the news stories about her tanking popularity is that the base of her adoring (or rather once-adoring) audience has been white middle-class women.  They've really been turned off by Oprah's swooning for Obambi.  Her losing this critical demographic spells muchas problemas for Obami Hussein in November – almost as much trouble as Mrs. Clinton will give him in October Surprise scandal-disclosures she'll unleash in revenge for taking the nomination away from her.

And the HFR celebrates the unfolding exposure of Obambi as a crook and a lightweight.  His corruption is being revealed via the trial of his mentor and financial backer in Chicago politics, slumlord Tony Rezko.

Rezko was Obambi's political mentor.  His ideological mentor, revealed by my friend Cliff Kincaid, was Frank Marshall Davis (1905-1987), a black poet in Hawaii who was a member of the Communist Party-USA, who passionately hated America and Christianity, and idolized the Soviet Union.

The more one looks past Obambi's smooth rhetoric, the uglier it gets.  And the squishier.  For it's his ballbreaker wife, Michelle, who has the cojones in the family, not him.  More and more now, it's becoming clear:  Obama is a pussy.

He says he'll talk and negotiate and make nicey-nice with any and all enemies of America, including Castro and Ahmadinejad.  But once a ton of criticism is unloaded on Jimmy Carter for going off to talk with the Moslem terrorists of Hamas, all of a sudden he denounces Carter and says he won't talk to such folk.

Or take the horrific violence being perpetrated by the thugs of Robert Mugabe upon the people of Zimbabwe.  If ever there is an opportunity for Obambi to show some backbone, to denounce an African dictatorship and demand democracy replace it, that's Mugabe.

But no, the wimp says nothing.  Instead, he indulges in the Audacity of BS and makes the ludicrous claim that a few pre-pubescent years as a child in Indonesia gives him more foreign policy experience than Hillary or John McCain. 

The candidacy of this corrupt lightweight pussy con-man is unraveling.  If you want to spend a few fun moments checking out the vast array of Obama-cons and lies, click on SlickBarry.

Then for a breath of contrasting fresh air, watch the Augusta Masters on TV – to admire the greatest athlete of our day, Tiger Woods.

And when you do, ask yourself – does it ever even occur to you to think of Tiger's race?  Of course not.  And neither does he.  You think of him as an individual.  And so does he.  When asked what race he is, he laughed and said, "Cablanasian" – for his mother is Asian (Thai or Siamese), while his father is part white/part black.

Tiger has no racial chip on his shoulder, race is irrelevant to him.  That's the way it should be with Obambi – but it's not.  And that's his doom.
