Feminism ID Crisis

People Actually Upset That Kermit the Frog’s New ‘Girlfriend’ Is Thin

“Well, apparently Kermit can’t get enough of women like his ex – as long as they’re younger and thinner than her and less successful than him (but still work at ABC, so he can rub her in Miss Piggy’s face),” Megan Carpentier, the U.S. opinion editor for The Guardian, wrote in a piece titled “Kermit the Frog’s New Girlfriend Is Younger, Thinner — and Blander.” Carpentier explained that while “Miss Piggy is a beloved feminist icon,” Denise is a representation of the “audience of the 1980s,” one “filled with fear of powerful women” who “understand and supported men’s urge to date their exes’ younger, dumber Plasticine lookalikes.”

Does anyone actually remember Miss Piggy? Manipulative, controlling, throwing a temper tantrum every time she didn't get her way, physically beating kermit on a daily basis. Tell me more about how she's a feminist icon. 

I don't know which part is worse: the kneejerk outrage, the fact that they don't know what they're talking about, or that we're having a discussion about muppet personalities.

The BBC has released a list of books found at the Bin Ladin compound in Pakistan where the man killed by U.S. Delta Force soldiers. All of these books on the list were discovered in ebook form, and the article implies that all the books were in English.

This list if bursting with WTFs. Among the strangeness includes

>Arabic Calligraphy Workshop by Fayeq S Oweiss 

>New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11 by David Ray Griffin (Yep, Bin Ladin had a book on his hard drive written by Truthers) 

>Grappler's Guide to Sports Nutrition by John Berardi and Michael Fry 

>Bloodlines of the Illuminati by Fritz Springmeier 

>Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Eustace Mullins 

>something about Project MKULTRA 

>scans of select pages from the Children's Guiness Book of World Records 
Sadly, the article does not specify which pages

>The Secret Teachings of All Ages by Manly Hall (1928) 

And are you ready for a falcon punch to the family jewels of irony?

>a guide to the video game, Delta Force Extreme 2

Bin Laden was obssesed with Conspiracy theorist in general, and 9/11 truth in particular?
Why? Because 9/11 was an inside job, and they blamed it on him.
He never claimed that he did 9/11, unlike what most terrorist do.
It's clear as daylight.


Bin Laden actually mentions a lot of these authors in his videos.
The CIA could have made up this list just by going through all the authors he name-drops in his dispatch videos. That's one thing to consider. The other thing is that this should come as no surprise. Required viewing:

Thanks for the links, Anon.

Okay, even if Bin Ladin was framed for 9/11 (and I am not ready to agree to that), then why the hairy heck did he have these items?

>>Profiles of bishops in the Church of England 

>>Arabic Grammar Manual 

>>Time, part of an article on a dive of America Online’s stock 

>>Bloodlines of the Illuminati by Fritz Springmeier 

>>An instructional guide to silk screening 

I understand that computers can gather lots of unread documents over the years, but this is ridiculous. Highly literate guys whose first language is Arabic do not keep Arabic grammar guides -- it isn't even that complicated of a language grammatically. And then there is Bloodlines of the Illuminati whose presence defies attempt at explanation. That's not even a compatible conspiracy theory with The New Pearl Harbor.

Here is the bottom line: Even if we cut out a couple of pieces which do not fit, there is still no pattern to it all.

When you have to spend 10 years living in seclusion, you get to a lot of Reading. Then, consider you're part of a militant sect of a religion that considers fantasy and sci-fi books forbidden.

It is funny to see how muslim extremists have adopted conspiracy theories invented by christian fundamentalists.

my cat says you're funny. Hello funny guy. you must be very funny. Do you consider yourself funny or does anyone from your surroundings say that you are funny? I bet you hear you're funny all the time.

This guy is funny, guys. I bet my balls on it. In fact, i put my balls on funny stuff, so I should put my balls on this guy's face. That's funny. That would be very funny. right.

It's not about who's right, It's about who's left

Bin Laden was killed by Seal Team Six, not Delta.

>Highly literate guys whose first language is Arabic do not keep Arabic grammar guides 

True, but I don't think it was probably to brush up on his grammar. Many of the books he had were focused on areas that might reveal strategic areas of vulnerability for his adversaries (primarily the US). I believe Bin Laden hoped the book could help him identify patterns (strange word choice, overly proper grammar, etc.) that a person who learned Arabic as an extra language might make. If Bin Laden could pass down his observations via courier to trusted officials lower on Al Qaeda's chain of command, he could help his organization more readily identify foreign spies.

I don't know, man
In the 9/16/01 video he makes it very clear that he is denying involvement
But in the 10/29/04 and 5/23/06 videos he says almost the exact opposite
I think Bin Laden was just a class A manipulator who was interested in conspiracy theories as yet another way of sowing doubt and dissent
