The real Norman Mailer: bizarre self-impaler..·
The latest from Mailer's a perfect example
of narcissists' egos completely entangled
by faith in the fable
alone they are able
to act with a motive that's morally ample.
A truth that our Founders had wisdom to face:
That leaders might act on a motive that's base,
and so they provided
for power divided
to minimize risks that such problems we'd face.
Another great truth that our Founders perceived:
That freedom needs speech as the first guarantee,
so people who spout
offensiveness out
can hear from their peers it's a double-way street.
A truth that psychiatrists learned long ago:
Celebrities rarely their true faces show,
and often accuse
opponents with views
their subconscious minds are attempting to show.··

April 29, 2003, column by Norman Mailer in which he projects onto Bush,
Blair, et al, his apparent deep-seated feelings of inadequacy (or guilt?) as a

The outrage at thugs who have looted seems inverse to
quantities looted..·
A Fox-News technician and one or two troops
dishonored their peers by attempts to take loot.
However, their stench
is less than the French
for helping Saddam divert oil as his loot.··
··
Isolated looting in Iraq by a Fox News technician and one or two troops warrants anger and
outrage among people generally and especially among the looters' peers whom they dishonored
by their behavior. Why is it, however, that the reports on how the French administering the
"oil for food" program helped Saddam's regime to divert gigantic sums into a
loot-for-Baathists program has inspired little more than token condemnation, if any at all, by the international
media? Could the "good news" in this "bad news" be that people rightly expect better
behavior from Americans than from the French?

Inspired by an April
22, 2003, news report touting Hans Blix's claims that his inspection regime
was "undermined" by Bush. Ostensibly, Blix still suffers the
delusion that the will of Iraqi scientists to tell him the truth was not totally
undermined by threats of torture and death directed toward them and their family
members by Saddam's secret police.

Petroskey, I'm sorry you
said you are "sorry."·
Petroskey for baseball had hit a home-run*
in telling Sarandon and Robbins "Don't come--
Your presence ain't groovey
to honor your movie,
'Bull Durham,'" but now his home-run he's undone.
Responding to Tim in his crybaby state,**
Petroskey in error implies a mistake
was calling it off
by mail without talk,
and thus he's refusing to step-on home-plate.
In "hindsight" he calls it an impolite act
in failing to call before sending the fax
in hopes they'd eschew
contemptible views
as though their mere silence could clean-up their act.
The
right of free speech allows people to choose
to speak on behalf of contemptible views,
but doesn't oblige
that others provide
a platform of honor in spite of their views.
But Robbins' response to Petroskey's "I'm sorry,"
exemplifies why he should not say "I'm sorry,"
'cause Robbins' reply
attempts to belie
that Dale 'stead of Tim should be saying "I'm sorry."···
(Click images to view

Inspired by an April
18, 2003, news report about a letter Petroskey published to say he's
"sorry" for not having called Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon before
issuing his cancellation of the planned Hall of Fame celebration of the 15th
anniversary of Bull Durham. Because Petroskey's letter
expressed regret for not having called Robbins and Sarandon before canceling the
event but not for the decision to cancel it, Robbins characterized it as a
"non-apology apology."
In typical style of a narcissistic celebrity, Robbins
asserted that "Petroskey's actions resulted in a bipartisan, nationwide affirmation of free speech and the First
Amendment," which obviously was not the result. Any alleged
"nationwide affirmation" related to mere manners rather than
"free speech and the First Amendment." Petroskey's
cancellation of the celebration had nothing to do with infringement of free
speech. Instead, it exemplified the exercise of rights of free speech and
free association to express distaste for, and to refuse to accord
the dignity of social acceptability to, such passionate proponents of such
contemptible views.
Just as Petroskey would have been right to withdraw an
invitation to someone who had chosen to make himself a passionate spokesman for
racist views, he was equally right to have withdrawn the invitation to Robbins
and Sarandon in light of their passionate promotion of vitriolic views deemed
highly offensive by an overwhelming majority of sensible Americans. This
was especially so at a time when the risks to American military forces
varied inversely in relation to the Hussein regime's false perception (which had
just recently been reinforced by Peter Arnett***)
that there was a growing (rather than shrinking) anti-war sentiment among
influential Americans (rather than those losing influence and respect) such that
tactics to protract the conflict or increase casualties would lead to a
political solution satisfactory to the Butcher of Baghdad.

Our troops would be

When Bill to the Conference Board tangoed

he first seemed to claim
that Bush deserves blame
for trying too hard to be Rambo.
But Conference Board members were stunned
when Bill said our prospects are glum

domestic and foreign
opponents can not "hold two guns."
When asked how he'd differ from Dubya,
"The world knows I am," proclaimed Bubba,
"avant garde and bold--
two guns I could hold
instead of just one like the Dubya."
"If that," replied Bush, "he deems vital,
we're diff'rent by more than a trifle.

I never have done,
I'm expert in holding two rifles."

Tim Robbins has said many outrageously offensive things, but
among the things he's done I found the most offensive was his behavior at a
London anti-war rally I witnessed on C-SPAN. Not only did he attribute to
mere motives for "profit" the plans for use of force to disarm Saddam
Hussein, he joined hands and raised arms with the Mayor of London immediately
after the Mayor characterized America's war on terror as a "racist"
war and characterized Bush as "the most racist President in American
history." (Ostensibly, he agrees with Belafonte
that Colin Powell, Condi Rice and Rod Paige aren't really "black" or
are merely "house slaves.") Such irresponsible statements and
behavior merely reinforce hate-speech so prevalent in the Arab press, which
still contends the CIA and the Mossad flew the airliners into the Towers and the
Pentagon.
Yet in speaking before the National Press Club today, Robbins
seems amazed that people such as I find his behavior so offensive that we would
rather walk through broken glass than have one more penny of our money ever find
its way into his pocket. It's a free country and people such as Robbins
are free to make asses of themselves and as well as being free to whine like
babies when people with better sense express their utter contempt for them and
choose to have nothing further to do with them.
His whining about Petroskey's cancellation of the Baseball
Hall of Fame "celebration" of the 15th anniversary of Bull
Durham and his other complaints about being so harshly criticized for his
anti-war demagoguery manifest his fundamental lack of understanding of the right
of free speech. (He seems to think "free speech" is an
"entitlement" rather than a right-- a distinction apparently beyond
his intellectual capacity.) It's irrelevant whether Robbins had planned to
make political statements (or even promised not to do so) at the Hall of Fame
event. To have allowed him onto the platform would have been a form of
speech by the Hall of Fame. Given the spectacle he's made of himself, his
mere presence would have been a form of speech-- an embarrassment to the Hall of
Fame and a source of disgust to most of its supporters. If those who have
entrusted such judgmental decisions to Petroskey find the judgment he exercised
on their behalf to have been offensive, they can fire him. I'm sure they
won't.
One who has made a public spectacle of himself by willfully
and repeatedly exhibiting contemptible behavior does not have a
"right" to appear on anybody else's platform because the very act of
allowing such appearance accords tacit dignity to the one who has achieved
well-deserved notoriety for contemptible behavior. I have no doubt that if
Robbins were to have recently begun passionately endorsing segregationist
policies rather than trashing America's motives in Iraq, Petroskey would have
made the same decision. Both kinds of behavior are fundamentally
offensive, in my opinion, to the vast majority of people whom the Baseball Hall
of Fame seeks to serve.
Pete Rose merely gambled on Baseball-- he's banned from
baseball. Jimmy the Greek merely made offensive statements that slavery
had somehow contributed to the athletic skills of blacks-- he was immediately
fired. Another baseball official, whose name I can't recall, lost his job
years ago after making what some interpreted as racially patronizing statements
to Ted Koppel on Nightline in an interview in which the official's very purpose
in being a guest on Nightline was to honor and laud Jackie Robinson as a pioneer
against racism.
In my opinion, Robbins is lower than pond scum and a crybaby
to boot. That's why I, and I think many other Americans, will consciously
strive to avoid even mere pennies of our money ever again finding their way into
the pockets of Robbins, Sarandon, Martin Sheen, Mike Farrell, Janeane Garofalo,
Ed Asner, and a host of other entertainers suffering delusions of importance and
intellectual acuity. To metaphorically paraphrase an old cliche:
"Those who live by the free market, die by the free market." --Jim

Like Rumsfeld, Victoria
Clark can parry what misses the mark.·
To questions displaying naivety,
it's tempting to answer with levity,
but more on the mark
Victoria Clark
responds with contemptuous brevity.
Naivety spoken with pride
in tone that was equally snide,
a question emoted,
"What possible motive
al Sadi could have to now lie?"*
·
Succinctly Victoria Clark
did parry such feeble en garde
by wryly delighting
in simply reciting
the fact that "old habits die hard."···
·
Inspired by Victoria Clark's response to a patently naive question today at the
Pentagon press briefing. As the predicate for an obtuse question, the
reporter asserted that since Amir al Sadi (*Hussein's
"science" advisor who surrendered to Marines in Baghdad yesterday)
could expect to be treated as a "hero" if he were to disclose the
locations of weapons of mass destruction, he would have "no motive" to
deny such weapons exist unless such denial were to be true. Then he asked
how could the U.S. still claim such weapons exist. I wonder if this
reporter ever learned that many Nazi leaders at the Nuremberg trials denied
culpability by claiming that other Nazi leaders had concealed the Holocaust from
them, while others began with such denials as bargaining tactics in efforts to
induce promises of leniency in exchange for information. --Jim

From Blix more
pronouncements to show
he's really Inspector Blixeau.·
That Pentagon "planning" for "war" had
begun
before the "inspections" by Blix had begun
was cited by Blix
as proof "war" was picked
as end-game before Blix's work had begun.
Naivety rather than knowledge he shows
with statements revealing how little he knows,
'cause prudence demands
contingency plans
designed just in case there's an order to "Go."
If "thinkers" like Blix were in charge of our
freedom
they'd never have "war-plans" 'til after
they need 'em.
Too late they would see
such planning to be
too little, too late for protecting our freedom.
Naive accusations by Blix merely show
how little he knows what inspectors should know
and buttress my theory
of needs to be leery
of Blix 'cause he's really Inspector Blixeau.*····
·
Inspired by an April
12, 2003, news report of an interview of Hans Blix by Spanish news
media. According to the report, Blix said Iraq was paying a "a very high price in terms of human lives and the destruction of a
country when the threat of banned weapons could have been contained by UN
inspections." With stunning naivety, he also said: "There is evidence that this war was planned well in advance. Sometimes this raises doubts about their attitude to the [weapons] inspections."
The article says "the 74-year Swedish diplomat made clear that he believes he was misled by President
Bush." It further says, "In a scathing attack on Britain and the US, Mr. Blix accused them of planning the war
'well in advance' and of 'fabricating' evidence against Iraq to justify their campaign.
Thank goodness people who think like Blix are not in charge of defending our

Iraqi delusions and
Lib'ral illusions.·
We thought that the spokesman in Baghdad was best
equipped to deny what is clear to the rest,
but learned who is best
when Nancy professed
"To topple that statue we could have
spent less." *·

Pelosi said she doesn't regret her "no" vote against use of force to topple
Saddam Hussein, and on the day the Iraqis toppled Saddam's statue in the center
of Baghdad, she proved she is even more skilled than was "Baghdad Bob"
in denying reality. Pelosi said, "We could have brought that statue down for a lot less."

Petroskey's home-run:
An error undone.·
A Hall of Fame error has now been undone:
By telling Sarandon and Robbins "Don't come--
You're presence ain't groovey
to honor your movie,
Bull Durham," the error's become a
home-run.

Inspired by
an April
9, 2003, report that Dale Petroskey, President of the Baseball Hall of Fame,
canceled a 15th-year-anniversary "celebration" of the baseball movie,
"Bull Durham," at which Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, who starred in
the movie, were scheduled to appear. In canceling the event, Petroskey
cited the Hall of Fame's unwillingness to host an event that could provide a
platform for Sarandon and Robbins to express their hostility toward our military
action in Iraq. Laughably, Robbins' indignant response criticized
Petroskey for using his "position at the Hall of Fame to make a political
statement." Exemplifying his utter lack of understanding of the
fundamental notions of free speech, Robbins further characterized the Hall of
Fame's refusal to serve as a platform for Robbins' and Sarandon's political
views as somehow "dishonor[ing] 'patriotism' and 'freedom.'" --Jim

Iraq will take freedom,

today, freed from fear of Saddam Hussein, jubilantly helping an American
tank-recovery vehicle pull-down the statue of Saddam Hussein in the center of
Baghdad.

Assume, arguendo, Saddam
was not in the bunker we bombed.
To dampen your furor,
remember der Fuhrer
survived some assassins with bombs.
But he whose dominion extends
to only the bunker he's in
will end his dominion
as part of the remnants
of whatever bunker he's in.··
·
If the intelligence information leading to our bombing of the bunker beneath the
restaurant yesterday was accurate, we were right to announce what we did.
If the information was merely a ruse manipulated by Saddam in an effort to cover
his plans to be elsewhere, we were right to announce what we did so he would
believe his ruse was successful.

Michael Kelly and David Bloom.·
For service to freedom both Kelly and Bloom
are now and forever with honor entombed
in hearts of the free
for helping us see
the freedoms delivered from liberty's womb
··
·
Michael Kelly and David Bloom exemplified the free press at its best as the
extreme opposite of the typically propagandistic, hate-mongering
"media" in most of the countries in the Middle East. Kelly's and
Bloom's willingness to risk death to serve the highest goal of a free press--
i.e., to combat propaganda with the truth-- played a vital role in
enabling us, and future generations, to appreciate the tectonic changes in favor
of freedom and against tyranny and terror that will flow from Operation Iraqi
Freedom. --Jim

A picture of Saddam Hussein? Or stand-in for Saddam--Whose Shame?.·
On Baghdad TV was it Saddam Hussein?
Or who's been a stand-in for Saddam? Whose Shame?
Our experts at PoliSat.Com

To solve today's mystery about whether the "Saddam Hussein" appearing
today on Baghdad TV was the real Saddam Hussein or was instead his most-trusted
stand-in, we put our experts to work using highly classified image-analysis
techniques to create the computer-generated animation at the left to answer this
question. --Jim

A role in the world for which France is so itchy

pompously lecturing the US with the French view that Operation Iraqi Freedom is
"morally wrong." I don't think we need moral advice from the
Neo-Vichy French. --Jim

Contrast Private Lynch with "stars" and the French.·
Perceiving themselves as noblesse oblige
enlight'ning us fools on what's best for peace,
the Hollywood Left
of standards bereft
thinks absence of warfare's the meaning of peace.
The Hollywood Left, like the French,
view peace as a mean to an end,
but unlike the French
our heroes like Lynch*
·
know freedom's a mean to peace as an end.·
·
·*·By
referring to "heroes like Lynch," I'm honoring PFC Jesse Lynch, the
female prisoner of war just rescued from Saddam's regime. As a native of
Palestine, West Virginia, a community as opposite as one can be from the opulent
communities inhabited by the intellectually vacuous Hollywood Left, she, and her
community, represent the best of America-- i.e., an un-cosmopolitan yet highly
sophisticated and intuitive appreciation that "peace" without freedom
is tyranny and that peace is an end to which freedom is a mean rather than
vice-versa. --Jim
