More "journalists" ash canned
« on: December 04, 2017, 10:00:56 PM »
This happened in Iowa with folks announcing a basketball game.

Iowa has communities with meat packing facilities that pay crap for wages, so they recruit workers from other nations. Some folks hate it, but they let it happen when IBP (now Tyson) changed the packing industry in the 1970s.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I do like the way the Desmoines Register provided a helpful link to the video so that you can actually listen to what they said, not just take the paper's word for it.... ;/ ;/ ;/

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

The mike is always on, and there's no such thing as "off the record."
