  Heheheheh.

  I like it.

• 2 antodav // Dec 29, 2006 at 7:54 pm

  Just what exactly is this feud between Rosie and the Donald about, anyway? I haven’t cared enough to pay any attention to it.

  Another home run. The Great Santini better wake up, we got music to the words now. (I am sure the Great One could do it also)

  Basic math: 0 + 0 = 0

  1 rich moonbat + 1 richer moonbat =very rich moonbats

  How does one choose a side to root for here ?

  I’m so confused …

• 6 CalGirl // Dec 29, 2006 at 10:30 pm

  One doesn’t…one merely shakes one’s head and wonders about the state of the world.

• 7 The Great Santini // Dec 29, 2006 at 10:33 pm

  Mu-wah…mu-wah…mu-wah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha [gasping for breath]…ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha [tears blurring 'puter screen]-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha [spitting up on keyboard]….Bravo, Scott, parodista extraordinaire!!!

  Your skewering of these two catfighting poofs-with acoustic guitar, raspy Diamondesque bass baritone, and You-Tubeâ„¢ antics, no less-ranks as a song parody classic. I needed a good belly-laugh, especially at the expense of these two mopes, to obey my Mom’s instructions to me to get on with life after she went to be with the Lord. You came through…mu-wah…mu-wah…mu-wah-hah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha….Playin’ it again and again.

  Nice touch, Scott. Cacklin’ Rosie, eh?

  Oh, Saddam has been hanged. Liberals continue saying he was a bad man but America and Coalition forces were wrong deposing him. Brace for the weeping and gnashing of teeth by the Donks who will bray how his trial wasn’t “fair”.

• 9 conserve-a-tips // Dec 29, 2006 at 10:51 pm

  Scott, we cackled with Rosie and the Donald as we were ‘drivin’ along just singin’ the song, side by side.’ You gave us a really good laugh for really looooonnnng trip. Still driving. It has been 16 hours now since we left, but the rain is pouring down and is slowing us down. We are about 45 minutes from home. mBeat to a bloody pulp. The little dog is too. Poor thing. She is
  asleep on my lap in front of the laptop.

  Darthmeister, I read that his lawyers petitioned the court to stay the execution. Rather ironic, huh, since these liberals are the ones saying that we have no right to interfere in their government.

  Ms Rightwing, Ink, you sound more chipper. I hope that you are feeling better.

• 10 conserve-a-tips // Dec 29, 2006 at 10:52 pm

  I apologize for the typos but the road is really bumpy. Sorry.

• 11 Darthmeister // Dec 29, 2006 at 11:01 pm

  c-a-t, may the good Lord extend travel mercies your way tonight.

  It’s started already. This from the Wizard of Kos himself at DailyKos:

  An appeals court upheld the death penalty on Tuesday and the government rushed through the procedures to hang him by the end of the year and before the Eid al-Adha holiday that starts on Saturday, coinciding with the haj pilgrimage to Mecca.

  What! He doesn’t get fourteen appeals spread out over seventeen years? Bwahahahahaha. And it will only get better as the weekend wears on.

• 12 SeaDog // Dec 29, 2006 at 11:30 pm

  I’m sick of this Trump & Rosie thing. Because of them, I haven’t heard one word about Brad & what’s-her-name & their illegitimate kids, or Tom & what’s-her-name & their illegitimate kids, or any of the other items which are so important to the most “advanced” society in history. Sadhaim’s hanging, Kim’s ideosyncracies, Iran’s nuclear weapons, Syria’s exporting of terrorists, and the like are only second-page material. I need to hear what experts like Streisand, Baldwin, and Robbins have to say about things. Inquiring minds want to know!

• 13 chrisp // Dec 29, 2006 at 11:47 pm

  Wow. Scott can sing and play guitar too? I feel more and more untalented every day.

  And anyone kicking (figuratively speaking, of course) Rosie in the butt gets my vote any day.

• 14 conserve-a-tips // Dec 30, 2006 at 12:05 am

  Thanks muchly, Darthmeister. We just rolled into the homefront and boy does mother earth feel good standing still, albeit quite soggy. Man, what a trip. I think that we are getting too old to do this straight through thing. Two days from now on. You should have seen the dog..the miniature long-haired dachshund…She was lying across my lap with her head dangling limply toward the floor. She was zonked.

  Looking forward to all of the left wing kooky statements that are bound to proliferate this weekend as a result of Iraq’s government acting like a sovereign government.

• 15 Ghoti // Dec 30, 2006 at 12:15 am

  Sorry to go off topic, but I wanted to extend my thanks to Jameson and others who offered prayers for my friend, Gary Weaver. Gary is no longer in pain, having passed away at 9:17 Central time tonight. We (his Air Force buddies) had dinner at Cracker Barrel in Nashville last night with Gary and his wife, following which he wanted a hug from each of us rather than the usual handshake. He was the greatest pianist I’ve ever heard, was extremely intelligent, and most importantly, was a friend and inspiration to many people throughout the Southeast. He will be sorely missed.

  Again, the prayers were/are much appreciated.

  Not a lot of posting here today. What would the marriage be like if Donald and Rosie got married?

  Probably not much like the piece I recently wrote on marriage. Rosie would have an apolectic fit over the idea of a good marriage.

  THOUGHTS ON MARRIAGE, IN CASE YOU WANTED TO KNOW. BY:FRED SINCLAIR, HEIRBORN RANGER

  Deut. 24:5 “When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken”.

  I’ve wondered what was so horrible about marriage back then - that she needed a year to be cheered up? Then I got to thinking about today’s marriages and what has passed down all these thousands of years. In that day and age (and in Muslim countries even today) women were property. A father had sole ownership of his wife and daughters, he was responsible to put an adequate roof over their head, feed them, clothe them and get the daughters married off to someone else. Women’s libbers, feminists and liberals in general didn’t like the traditional marriage vows - so they rewrote them to suit themselves. The wording “Wilt thou have this man to love, honor and obey…..etc., etc.” So they changed it to read “love honor and cherish….”

  But even they couldn’t evade the property angle, even though today its mainly ceremonial. The father was turning over and entrusting to another man the responsibilities of his daughter’s care, food, clothing and shelter. For as long as they both shall live (he didn’t want her back). Today an almost universal question is asked as part of the marriage ceremony. “Who gives this woman in marriage? Almost always it’s her father, or in his absence an Uncle, brother or other male relative (but it’s always a male who hands her over - always!) who is literally transferring property to another man.

  With today’s divorce rate at over 50% I’d be willing to bet a sizable amount (if I were a betting man - which I’m not) that the vast majority of those divorces used “and cherish” instead of “and obey” in their marriage vows, most men today have been so tutored into the feminist viewpoint that they really don’t know how to be ahead of the household. Try getting a definition of “Headship” from today’s husbands and you’ll likely get a blank stare and a “Duh, gee I dunno”. Try getting married in an Amish, Mormon or fundamentalist Christian wedding with “and cherish” in the service and you’ll encounter a major problem. The “and obey” is an acknowledgment on the part of the bride that she accepts the groom as the leader in their marriage, the spiritual leader in the worship of God but not a demonic despot or tyrant whose every little whim must be obeyed. If he should ever tell her to do something outside of Scripture it would then be her duty to obey God, rather than man.

  On the man’s part he is to treat his wife as he treats his own body. Never harms or hurts it, bathes it, shaves it’s face, gets it’s hair cut, buys nice clothes for it to wear, buys good food for it to eat, works out regularly to keep it trim and in good condition. doesn’t overindulge in either food or drink eschews illegal substances and above all loves and treats her as Christ did for His bride, the Church. Even to the point of gladly giving his life for her.

  Not just in dying for her - there’s that too of course, but dying to self in putting her first in all things. Making no decisions without much consideration and prayer as to how the decision will affect her. Not that he bows and kowtows to her every whim either. He’s got to have enough spine to do whatever is in her best interest, even is she doesn’t readily see it or necessarily agree, as Christ does for His church at times. Even if it means putting her needs first with tickets to the ball game he’s wished for all year, and he learns she wants to go for a picnic in the park. “Well, what a great idea! I wish I’d thought of it!” and no matter what the stupid tickets cost, she will never, ever learn that they existed. Because he is laying down his life, wants, needs and desires for hers.

  I wish I had known all of this that I’ve learned over the years back when I was married. If I had, I’d still be married today, but I was dumb (unlearned) at the time and did not really know how to be a good husband.

  I should have known as I grew up since my father lived all that I have written - but then perhaps I was too close to the tree to see the forrest.

  Ghoti: my sincere condolences to you, your friend and his family.

• 18 gafisher // Dec 30, 2006 at 8:04 am

  Ghoti, my sympathies to those who stood by your friend in this life; we were not created to die and the loss of a friend is just cause to grieve over the consequences of Adam’s sin and ours. The Second Adam gives us hope; may your friend’s widow find that hope expressed through you and others who loved her husband, and may she know that Hope who never fails.

• 19 Fred Sinclair // Dec 30, 2006 at 8:21 am

  Ghoti - sorry to hear of your friends passing - My prayers go up for his wife and friends that they will find peace in knowing that as a Christian he really has been “promoted to Glory” as my family has always believed. I was 11+ years in the Air Force and I too have very close friends who also have been promoted. At age 69, my promotion can come at any time, and if the Lord wishes, I’m ready to go. I am touched by his desire for a hug rather than a handshake. Sounds like he had some really close friends and that’s more than many can say.

  Condolences to you Ghoti.

• 21 Ghoti // Dec 30, 2006 at 12:05 pm

  Thanks to all of you. My daily visits to ScrappleFace are always a blessing, as the wonderful “friends” here always find the right words.

  May Glod bless each and every one of you.

• 22 Ghoti // Dec 30, 2006 at 12:08 pm

  My keyboard is messed up, and I certainly would never misspell His name intentionally

  May GOD bless each and every one of you.

  Maestro Ott, your seemingly endless wealth of talents never fail to amaze me!
