2011 Anal-Ocity #1

A new year and a new batch of anal statements coming from people that should know better…..the first one is actually something said back in December of 2010 but the nominees were already being voted on and so we decided to make it the first one of the New year…..

This one is from an opinion writer for the Washington Times, Robert Knight…….he was writing on the possibility of the repeal of DADT……

Mr. Gates himself hinted at the answer: Training (i.e. brainwashing) could begin earlier. Think about that. Troops drawn from America’s heartland will be “trained” to appreciate sodomy – or else. Wonder if they’ll break out those little Maoist dunce caps while they’re at it?

Of course, this is NOT anywhere near the truth or in any way accurate……but when has one of these looney morons from the Right ever let truth and accuracy get in their way?

New Years Predictions For 2011

A new year……back to work…..

I started this, the attempt to predict, a couple of years ago…so far I have been kinda accurate but then some of them were gimmes…..First I will grade how I did for 2010 and then move on to this years predictions….

1–Pakistan will have a crisis and a new government…..close but no cigar

2–Afghan surge will go well at first…so far so good….+

3–Unemployment does not get below 8.5%–sorry this was a gimme….+

4–Immigration and Energy will be the next big congressional confrontations–this one is a toss up…immigration became hot and energy was put on a the back burner…close but no cigar!

5–Top Obama cabinet member will resign–head of the NIB, Romer and Orzag and Summers of the economic team and little dictator Rahm is gone….+

6–Economy will have another scandal–this one is good!  The scandal of insurance companies screwing widows of dead military people…..+

7–Inflation will rise by 3rd quarter….The Fed peed all over this one…..-

8–Israel/Palestine will flair up again–another close one….the attack on the flotilla and the Gaza thingy is still hot…but it will be a close but no cigar!

9–Iran will be the focus of most of the US foreign policy….this was another “gimme”…it seems that Iran will always be a major priority in foreign policy…..+

10-a real third party shows ballot strength—way off dumbass!….-

11-Yemen will become much more volatile–many AQ guys in Yemen and the focus of drone strikes ….many plots come out of Yemen especially bomb plots….. so I give it a….+

Yes, I know these are open for interpretation….my blog…my interpretation…..the score is 6 plus…..3 close and 2 minus…not a bad prediction……

Another year begins and another year of aggravation and lots of coffee…..so here are my predictions for 2011…..

1–unemployment does NOT dip below 9%

2–inflation will be up to 2%

3–Washington remains the same partisan bound group as it has been last year

4–Germany will have a bit of a set back in the economy

5–Economic growth will be 3%

6–Tax cuts will NOT create jobs

7–More major economic problems in Europe (EU)

8–Afghan situation becomes more clouded than before

9–Pakistan will become unstable….

10-Energy and Education will be hot issue for Congress

Nostradamus!  Cayce!  Eat your hearts out!  My crystal balls are bigger than theirs……
