Pyrrhic

This is either about history or stuff that already happened. Anyway Pyrrhic had a son called Custard, Custard Pyrrhic, who fought the Sue at a little big house and lost.

So just remember when you get on your high horse like General Custard Pyrrhic, you may get your punkin carved. Or something.

Custard’s Last Stand was really selling frozen yogurt?

d Watching Hillary speak (Hillaryspeak?), I noticed that her body language seemed nervous-balled fists, restless hands close to her body, darting eyes, etc-she is the suicidal sacrifice-you can almost smell the flopsweat...

If the current debacle in Libya
Is an example of Obama’s bunch
Toying with consulate protection
Then they are all out to lunch

Americans dead, a building torched
But a video will get the blame
We’re tired of the Pyrrhic victories-
Hillary, thank you just the same

It looks like Hillary is going down
Without the power Bill gave her-
And like Haldeman in Nixon’s reign
There’s no one left to save her

Nice poem. You’re forgiven for the triple post—FreeRepublic has been acting up. I could barely get on in the last few minutes. I switched browsers from Internet Explorer to Mozilla, and it seemed to work much better.

That’s good to hear. I heard her in the car so had no visuals and she sounded almost offhand and cavalier in the way she spoke of the attack.

Thank you!

Sorry-the thing just keeps showing up again without even hitting “post”-I’ll try switching to Mozilla, but there are major gremlins here, and have been for some time...

I'll take even a Pyrrhic victory if it means we no longer have Mr. Soak-the-Rich prying into our lives...

Nawwww...It was the boyts against the gurts and the boyts said, “Yo gurt! Yo! Yo! Can’t keep me ona string like that.”

And Old Mellow Yellow ended up with egg in his face (it was egg custard).

More Hysterical History.

I’ll give Hillary credit for trying to be offhand and dismissive, but her hands, face, and stance said nothing to see here, folks-just move along...

I saw something scroll by on the news thingee on my homepage screen that said sunscreen recalled when users were lit on fire, or some such-it made me laugh because I’m sure some not-very-smart move was involved. The label of my tanning oil says keep away from open flame...

Just living in the White House and studying with Saul Alinsky, hater of America, did not qualify Hillary to run for president or be appointed to any federal job.

She just announced the other day that ANYBODY can become a diplomat (thanks to electronic media) just hit SEND!
