What exactly is a restraining order?



I received something strange today.  Somebody came to my house and handed me some legal papers.

It came from someone claiming to be Marianne Williamson's lawyer. The letter demanded that I stop sending "lewd photos" to Marianne.

But I never did such a thing.

What is this about? A prank?

Jim Libertarian Burns told me Marianne would be my First Lady.

Someone has some explaining to do.

Mount Rushmore for Functional Fillmore Frugal movement

The Mount Rushmore of the Functional Fillmore Frugal movement would have:

Millard Fillmore -great president and leader of the native American Party, the Functional Fillmore Frugal movement of the 19th century

John Lennon - culturally significant singer whose libertarian themed songs influenced the Functional Fillmore Frugal movement more than anyone else

Jim Libertarian Burns - great Libertarian leader who continues his work beyond the grave as an adviser to the Functional Fillmore Frugal movement

Newt Gingrich - great Speaker of the House responsible for the prosperity of the 90s due to balanced budgets and welfare reform, best possible presidential candidate to promote the Functional Fillmore Frugal movement

Newt Gingrich: No Strategy is Better Than Bad Strategy

Originally published at CNN.com.

No Strategy is Better than Bad Strategy

When President Barack Obama said recently that "we don't have a strategy yet" to defeat the Islamic State -- also known as ISIS or ISIL -- many people were scandalized. Columnists attacked him for what they said was his admission of a deep failure. His own staff had to run around defending and explaining what he said. It was seen as a terrible blunder.

Maybe it was. Or maybe it wasn't.

The truth is that 13 years after the September 11 attacks, the United States does not have an effective strategy for dealing with radical Islamists and their deep commitment to waging war against us and against our civilization.

Much like the man who has a hammer and therefore assumes every problem is a nail, our bureaucracies have tried for 13 years to redefine the problem into something they are comfortable dealing with.

Two long, bitter wars -- Afghanistan is now the longest war in American history, four years longer than the American Revolution and almost three times the length of American participation in World War II -- have not made America and its allies safer.

The emergence of the Islamic State, as the terror group calls itself, is a further reminder that the analysis and predictions of the intelligence community, the military and the State Department have often been just plain wrong.

Islamic State controls vast regions in two countries and has substantial military equipment. It is not just a new problem in nation-state relations. Whether to engage it inside Iraq or Syria is not the key question.

Instead, the most important aspect about Islamic State is that it is a vector for attracting, training and preparing foreign terrorists from all over the world.

Islamic State comprises 10,000 potential terrorists from more than 50 countries. Estimates vary widely on how many Americans have gone Syria to join ISIS and other extremist groups. Some officials say dozens have gone; House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers says "hundreds." At least one of them, from Minneapolis, was recently killed.

More than 500 potential terrorists are believed to have traveled from Great Britain to join ISIS. It's believed that the two American journalists were beheaded by the same man, and experts believe he is from England.

British Prime Minister David Cameron has begun to recognize the depth and power of the terrorism crisis. He is proposing a series of major legal changes in Britain to eliminate would-be terrorists from British life. There will be even more draconian laws proposed in the near future if this conflict escalates.

We are facing a new kind of crisis in the rise of radical Islamists who spread their ideology worldwide through the Internet and through human networking. It is a global phenomenon and the analytical models and strategic patterns that have worked with nation-states will simply fail when applied to the Islamic State and its fellow terrorists in Hamas, Boko Haram, Libyan militants, Yemeni jihadis or any other group.

We need a new analysis with new language and new strategies that relate to defeating a viral system that spreads across national boundaries.

We're better off with a president who doesn't have a good strategy and knows he doesn't than with a president who has a bad strategy but thinks he has a good one. For most of his administration, the president was firmly in the latter category, so his recent epiphany marks an improvement.

If there is a silver lining in President Obama's disastrous foreign policy, it has been in awakening Americans and perhaps even the President himself to the need for a profound rethinking of our approach to radical Islamism.

Your Friend,
Newt

Open Thread for September 2014

Discuss anything you want. Unlike IPR, the Functional Fillmore Frugal blog won't censor you. Have at it.

Thank you Jill Pyeatt

I am thankful to Jill Pyeatt of IPR for posting part one of my treatise. I am now thankful to her for posting an article linking to the Functional Fillmore Frugal blog.

Thank you.

I am upset that she lumped my website with the website of Paulie's Nazi alter ego Vernon, but I'll take it.

As Mr Jagger said,  "You can't always get what you want."

Cyberpig starts blog as Nazi alter ego

Cyberpig Paulie Frankel started a new blog under his Nazi alter ego Vernon.  This was done to continue trolling as Vernon after his IP address gets blocked on IPR.

Paulie is on record supporting the block of Vernon's IP on IPR. This seemed to be an indication he was retiring the character. We now see how he can have his cake and eat it too.

On the website he makes outrageous claims referring to himself as a child molester and calling his friend Andy Jones the inspiration for the 40 year old virgin.

The Fappening disgusts me

Naked pornographic images of celebrities were released Sunday. I looked at some of them. I was disgusted. 

I was disgusted, not by the hackers, but by the sluts that took the images of themselves. These sluts got what they deserved for being stupid enough to take photos of themselves and believe the public wouldn't see.

Prominent among the sluts was the overweight model Kate Upton. She showed all parts of her body and even showed photos of her boyfriend's penis, balls, and semen splatter on her back. 

Maybe now the boyfriend will stop wasting his seed on this dumb slut. The boyfriends of the other sluts should do the same. 

Proper women do not engage in such deviance.
