smittyoneeach's Journal: OK, joke's on me

I have no business being surprised that the usual /. suspects are
as sheepish on how stupid the Iran deal is
as they are sheepish on Planned Parenthood
as they are sheepish on anthropogenic global warming
as they are sheepish on pretty much everything else.
Sweet lambs!

Stupid is as stupid does? Bottom's up!

What written law backs up all this angst?

Maybe you need some more time at the beach, away from the TV and newspapers. The kids will love it. The water's not too cold. Wouldn't this be the best time of year? You are reasonably close, right? Within a couple of hours? What's the matter with you? Don't be such a cheapskate!

Butterfield is the eponym for "The Butterfield Effect", used to refer to a person who "makes a statement that is ludicrous on its face, yet it reveals what the speaker truly believes"

"What written law backs up all this angst?"

That's the point. The written law has become unjust.

I can go along with that. But I would rather see the public conduct the mutiny, not the state itself, or the military. Servant's gotta serve...
