TWISTER UNSPUN
Popular Mechanics, which last year debunked 9/11 conspiracies, now debunks Katrina myths.
but then, Aljazerra as recently as January argued ... well you know, see http://www.aljazeera.com/cgi-bin/conspiracy_theory/fullstory.asp?id=287
Posted by WeekByWeek on 2006 02 16 at 04:31 AM • permalinkThe ‘so-called’ ‘Popular Mechanics’ magazine is the propaganda wing of King George Bu$h II’s imperialist war mongering oil devouring hate machine cabal thingy.
Goebells would be proud!Posted by Lucky Nutsacks on 2006 02 16 at 04:34 AM • permalink#3 is on to something.
Where do Mechanics work? They work at Halliburton. Who controls Halliburton? Dick Cheney controls Halliburton. Is Dick Cheney Popular? Popular enough to be elected VP of the United States. Thus, Dick Cheney wrote this article for Popular Mechanics.
Posted by perfectsense on 2006 02 16 at 05:08 AM • permalinkTHe Katrina disaster was not planned by George Bush but by the extended arm of the Zionist cabal. Even from his hospital bed, Sharon is able to control such manoevres with ease to gain valuable Israli export contracts
Got that one Leunig for your next cartoon inspiration?
No charge as per my Jan 1 posting re the mining disaster!A zionist butterfly flapped its wings in the Amazon….
Or was it a duck???
Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2006 02 16 at 06:21 AM • permalinkIf we’re going to gin up a conspiracy theory involving Popular Mechanics we really need to work the Rosicrucians into it somewhere.
Posted by Paul Zrimsek on 2006 02 16 at 08:47 AM • permalinkNo, no, Paul (#11), wrong genre. The Knights of the Rose Cross don’t build hutches or change their own oil—they have minions for that. Tool companies: Skil, Black&Decker;, and the rest of the cabal. Can you imagine how many 24-volt drill motors and handy portable workbenches must have been sold to the people fixing up after Katrina? Gotcher motive right there.
Denuding entire rain forests of rare tropical woods (the source, no doubt, of cures for everything from chlamydia to sandal-bunions, sacrificed forever) to build gun cabinets, for no real purpose except to sell the tools to make them with, makes Mr. Cheney smile. The tool-tips columns make wonderful places for disseminating the latest word from on high, suitably encoded.
Rotarians, perhaps. Rosicrucians have other, less plebian venues.
Regards,
RicTim: now that’s what I call a “quality link”. The article is the best I’ve seen on the subject; I particularly like the juxtaposition of “myths” and “facts”.
#4: A brilliant deduction; however, even if Cheney did write it, it doesn’t mean it isn’t true. He has a great reputation as a
straight-shooterretailer of hard facts.Which fact the Rosicrucians and their White House allies have apparently succeeded in hushing up. Aha!
Posted by Paul Zrimsek on 2006 02 16 at 01:30 PM • permalinkIt’s really very reassuring to be here in the Blair cocoon, so cosy and safe. Nobody wants to believe that America is in the hands of a cabal of venal, deceitful and, most of all, incompetent dipshits, and here, suffused in the balm of Mr Blair’s soothing banalities, we can, for a moment, just wish it all away.
Keep up the good work.
“Popular Mechanics” has 16 letters.
“George Walker Bush” has 16 letters.
SEE???
Posted by Jim Treacher on 2006 02 16 at 02:19 PM • permalinkWait, my research just dug up more facts:
16 + 16 = 32
3 + 2 = 55? As in 5 points on a… Pentagon? Nice try, chickenhawks!

Why yes, we are strangely reluctant to believe in the hallucinations of a drooling moron. Go figure. But you go right ahead and believe whatever you want, loady.

People of your type used to attack Winston Churchill as a warmonger when he began warning Britain of danger before WW2. Then he was accused of being incompetent whenever there were reverses in that 5 year battle to the death with evil. But in the end the lies and exaggerations of the critics were probably little more than a nuisance.
Deranged attacks on Bush which began in earnest after the war with the Islamists began, now cover everything from hurricane relief efforts to trying to listen in on terrorists phone conversations.
Just to remind you, the true conspirators flew planes without warning into buildings full of ordinary people. Yet you choose to believe in a make believe “cabal” in America.
How did you come to be so deluded?
Damn, but that is one fine afteraction report Popular Mechanics did! I’m passing it on to other folks as well. Thanks for the link, Tim!

wronwright, did you leave the keys in the Tardis again? Loadedog thinks it’s 1978 (or possibly 1992), and the Democrats are in power.
Posted by The_Real_JeffS on 2006 02 16 at 03:23 PM • permalinkAnd how doggish of him: he just trots by, messes in the yard, and trots off again.
C’mon, don’t tempt him into posting one of his boring, deluded (and not to mention looooong) monologues in which he repeatedly refers to himself in the plural.
Admittedly, the phrase “dropping a load” becomes a lot more, erm, plastic whenever this dog comes around, so you might be on to something.
I actually encourage trolls, particularly on a Friday.
The smell of moonbat makes the claws of RWDBs bigger, while RWDBs help to perpetuate the victimhood of the trolls. It works for all of us, don’t you see, Loaded Dog?
Oh and Loadie, what are you wearing?

Posted by stuartfullerton on 2006 02 16 at 05:46 PM • permalinkWHAT SECRET, EXTRALEGAL POWERS DOES THIS VICE-PRESIDENT POSSESS?
The ancients called it The Unitary Executive.
God-like powers will be yours when you master the secret of the Unitary Executive. The Roveicrucians (not a religion) are an age-old brotherhood of oil-industry cronies. Write today for a FREE COPY of their book, The State Secrets of the Ages.
Posted by Paul Zrimsek on 2006 02 16 at 05:56 PM • permalinkThe female journalist was attacked for being ‘sexually provocative’ for not wearing a head scarf at the demonstration organised by the Peoples Education Research and Support Group in Konya (He-Da-Der) and entitled ‘Loyalty to the Prophet’.
Good God. Sexually provocative? Those people need to get out more.
Damnation, where did our trolls go? - I just wanted to be friends.
#38 and #39 - I expect we will hear our feminist lefty female journalists from the west come out in solidarity against this barbarism, won’t we?
I am holding my breath as of - now…
Posted by Margos Maid on 2006 02 16 at 07:58 PM • permalinkCan we have a miutes silence for the passing of Margos Maid, cruely taken as an indirect victim of hair rays.
When will popular mechanics investigate these cruel rays??
Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2006 02 16 at 08:11 PM • permalinkThe link is much appreciated Tim. Can any of the US resident posters tell me what happened to Ray Nagin, BTW? Is he still mayor? Is he back on his medication yet? I heard a rumour that he was caught in the back room of City Hall sniffing black helicopter wax, but I’m sure that’s just a vicious lie.
Posted by SwinishCapitalist on 2006 02 16 at 08:17 PM • permalinkSwinishCapitalist
Yes, Nagin is still mayor.
Mayor: New Orleans will seek aid from other nations…FreeRepublic
Margos Maid…Ummmm, breathe please.
RebeccaH…I think their problem is, is they get out to much…way to much.
The Left seems to gravitate to totalitarian things, much like moths to a outside night light.
El Cid - UNbelievable! Begging letters to China and Libya too, no doubt.

Wow. Tell me anyone on the planet that wouldn’t like a send off like that.
“C’mon Aussie C’mon” sung - at length - by a packed house, with banners, placards etc. The Chardonnay Set will never set foot there again (he he).
Posted by Stop Continental Drift! on 2006 02 16 at 11:01 PM • permalink... and to ice the cake, it will send every leftoid and Howard Hater completly nuts when they read / hear about it.
Did anyone see Paul Keating there, or was he polishing his clocks?
Posted by Stop Continental Drift! on 2006 02 16 at 11:06 PM • permalinkO/T - The Aussie ‘Muslims Village Forums’ posters are outraged by the Abu Ghraib photos but seem pretty happy with ‘Juba, the legendary sniper of Iraq’, who’s responsible for the deaths of multiple U.S servicemen.
And these are the so called ‘moderate muslims’ of Australia?Posted by Lucky Nutsacks on 2006 02 16 at 11:16 PM • permalinkIt’s a good article, but I wonder about this bit:
Bumbling by top disaster-management officials fueled a perception of general inaction, one that was compounded by impassioned news anchors.
I’m curious to know exactly what was “bumbled”—who, specifically, was supposed to do what that didn’t happen? I’ve heard some examples given at the State and local levels, but has anyone actually compiled a list of who failed to do what, and backed ut up with public documents?
Posted by John Nowak on 2006 02 16 at 11:23 PM • permalinkMeanwhile back at the ranch:
A group of Israelis have announced their own antisemitic cartoon competition. http://www.boomka.org
“We will show the world we can do the best, sharpest,most offensive Jew hating cartoons ever published. No Iranian will beat us on our home turf.”
Entries should be sent here .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
Competition closes 5 March 2006 and is open to “Jew creators only”.
#56 - Ant Lowenstein should enter. I think he qualifies as a Jew.
Posted by Lucky Nutsacks on 2006 02 17 at 12:45 AM • permalinkOT czechs get it…
A group of activists plan to hold a demonstration outside the Iranian
embassy in Prague on Friday. The group says it will be protesting, in
the name of free speech, against the diplomatic note sent by the
Iranian government to the Czech foreign ministry after one of the
prophet Mohammed caricatures was re-printed - for illustration purposes
- in two Czech newspapers.#59
Oooh, more of that please.

Posted by The Thin Man Returns on 2006 02 17 at 03:37 AM • permalinkActually, the bit about the floodwalls is dead wrong. While they were driven 17’ into the ground as per design spec, the design was flawed. Due to the soil conditions, they needed to be 3-4 times deeper.
Posted by Cybrludite on 2006 02 17 at 09:47 AM • permalinkAnd you have sources to back that up, I assume?
