I’m Gonna Run This Post Up the Flagpole and See Who Salutes It

Make No Mistake About It. You Can Take It To The Bank.

Make no mistake, whether we’ve reached a tipping point or  just playing politics, not fearing the optics of thinking outside the box at the crossroads of their last ditch effort, there is always plenty of blame to go around in the searing indictment of the favorite Washington parlor game that turns a blind eye on a potent symbol… the game-changer, which dons the mantle of a hotly contested feeding frenzy.

Needless to say, it remains to be seen in the 24-hour news cycle of the digital age, whether at first glance, the woefully inadequate, byzantine rules that burst onto the scene will allow the punditocracy to breathe a sigh of relief or will force it to vicariously probe the powers that be for the American people. But those rules double-down with strange bedfellows in the wake of keen observers of the tongue-wagging, well-heeled who meet with an ignominious end in the final analysis at the end of the day when, for all intents and purposes, cooler heads prevail at the inflection point of no return that is sometime shrouded in secrecy…

Who is the author of this word salad?

  1. That hurt my already exhausted brain caused by an insanely action packed and stressful, over meetinged, over emailed, over texted, over instant-messaged, traffic jammed, train ride to and from New Joisey in one day, pick up the sister-in-law at the airport, car broke down, boss beat-down (am I coming down with the flu?) week….

  2. That is an example of some smart-ass kid submitting an essay for one of the standardized tests. Half of my readers would have given it a failing score and the other half would have run up to me to declare that they have the best written paper they have ever seen. Fortunately, this kind of essay only showed up maybe once per project, if that.

    So, what we had to do was print the paper, sit down with highlighters and wade through it to determine: 1. What was the student trying to say 2. Did the student stay on topic 3. Did it meet the requirement of the test (informative, persuasive, explanatory, etc) 4. Did the student use the proper words to convey their meaning.

    Since I’m not being paid, I’m not even going to start to score this! But just so you know, most of the papers I ever scored that looked like this usually received an average score. The smart students that tried this usually tripped themselves up somewhere. The failing students wouldn’t even try this.

  3. someone who loves, that is to say, without prejudicial over, or undertones, relying solely on judgements of initial analysis, without coming exactly to a biased conclusion, an overuse of commas?

  4. Reminds me of this:
    “My accomplishments as Secretary of State? Well, I’m glad you asked! My proudest accomplishment in which I take the most pride, mostly because of the opposition it faced early on, you know… the remnants of prior situations and mind sets that were too narrowly focused in a manner whereby they may have overlooked the bigger picture and we didn’t do that and I’m proud of that. Very proud. I would say that’s a major accomplishment.”

  5. I sent this in to Fur because I think it is a perfect mockery of the mindless and meaningless BS thrown at us all day every day by the “press” and the pols. It was no small task to put this together so well. It is a testament to the sarcastic frilliance of the lovely Diogenes Sarcastica of DMF News. Thanks for posting it Fur!

    You nailed it, Uncle Al – and Jimmy.

  6. Rockwell made some of the best portable yank routers and yuk rooters.

    Southern Yellow pine grows a fuzz after routing. To minimize sanding and profile loss. . .after routing wipe the cut with a moist towel. . .let evaporate. . .repeat until fuzz becomes noticable. . .when dry make another pass with the router to clean up the profile.
