What a martinet.


Um, a "martinet," Gracie? *Hang on, you don't actually mean to say "martian" or
"maraschino" or "canard a l'orange" or something, do you...?


Here Junior, let me help you out, or more correctly


let the Wiki help you out


Maybe you ought to Wiki up something for yourself, there, Daffy...

"In English, the term martinet is usually used not in reference to the
whip itself, but rather him who would use it, a person who demands
strict adherence to set rules, especially such a person in the
military. This sense of the word reputedly comes from the name of Jean
Martinet, Inspector General of the army of Louis XIV and thus would be
etymologically only by accident related to the earlier sense.
In an extended sense, a martinet is any person for whom a strict
adherence to rules and etiquette is paramount: martinets often use
etiquette and other rules as an excuse to trump ethics, to the point
that etiquette loses its ethical ground. The Ugandan dictator Idi Amin
was famously described as a "strutting martinet" by Time in 1977.[1] "


As I said, I don't watch Hannity, but I did occasionally watch Hannity and
Colmes, and I must say, the first time I saw it, I thought, "Boy, that Hannity
guy is _EXACTLY_ like a white Idi Amin"...his exaggerated military bearing and
repeated citing of "Robert's Rules of Order" and "Emily Post," even to
off-camera personnel, did seem a bit odd and excessive...

HTH,
R
....OTOH, maybe it was just all the festoonery on Hannity's Gilbert and Sullivan
inspired uniform...he is the very model of a modern Ugandan dictator...

Ah ha!!!!
Now I know for sure we got you Boo****s on the run.
You can tell when they start to turn on their heroes, like Rick here
just did on one of the their main mentors, Mr. Martinet Hannity, the
whackjob, Mr. Boo**** Leader Maximo of the Boo****skies, Mr FOX,
Ruperts favorite Boot Licker Hannahosuckmaster, and all round
****ant.

Up to this point his resolve was solid and Der Plan was underway.
Possibly under the very leadership of the secretive, Senor Rick.

#1, Send in the BeanMan, let him get under their skin with his
mindless troweling on of **** made up in the mind of head Druguser in
Chief, Limpback and his gang, The Anal Warts.

#2. Then along come Rick, smoking jacket and all, Deconstructionista,
master of disaster in the reasoning and logic areana, true believer in
every act of Bush and Cheney, loyal in spite of it all, unshakable in
the defense of incompetence, unmoved by continous acts of Bush
stupidity and out of control spending, . . . along come Rick with the
daily made up ****y harassment of the Obama Prez, from day one. What
unquestioning loyalty. Better than Rin Tinny Tin.

#3 And the Rice a Roni? The Anal Warts!!!!!!!!! Those wild and crazy
guys, those silly ass biters, . . . from California to the
Massachusetts Highlands. . . sing it Mz Laura, those Fox and Rush
stalled warts, well you fill in the rest.

But like Raygun's mind in his second term, the plan is not working.
The people have a memory. They remember all too well how the Boo****s
wanted to steal their Social Security accounts. They remember who in
the Bush Whitehouse betrayed US CIA agents to cover up Presidential
lies, They know who signed the blank checks to the banks. They know
about the stolen money that should have been used to help our soldiers
get Bin Ladin.

Dear Rick Keenardo,
You should have seen Hannity/FOX today. Right at the end of his piece
on "Today's Themes for Boo**** America Haters" he laid it all out.

He said, "A special dart goes out today for Boo****ers who up till now
have with slavish, unquestioning loyalty, mouthed lavish hate on
anyone trying to clean up the crap our team has pulled on the American
people, BUT WHO are LOSING FAITH with the principles of screw-the-
people, and cheat-the-troops-for-a-dollar, and so-you-thought-
your-401k-was safe-from-us.

"These principles are our Bible and don't you forget it." He went on
to say. . . "if you cannot keep up the Boo****er attacks on Obama
every day your privileges will be revoked. No more legacy admissions,
cancellation of off shore bank accounts, no more no-bid contracts, no
more fake "Made in the USA" labels. And that's just the start."

That is scary stuff. What with the resupply of Duck loads that Cheney
just got, no one would blame you if you backed off of the "hate
America" Boo**** team. Even Nascar has seen some cutbacks.

Hell, I'm a longtime Democrat, and I don't believe much of the above(or the
snipped part). The US public has the long-term memory, collectively, of a
hamster. I will gladly wait to be proven wrong, but doubt I'll see that.....

Ah yes, the hamster keenardo again. While America slept the Boo****s
ate most of the hamsters, and it was Boo****s that sold the rest into
bondage. You want proof? You want proof? We don need no stinkin proof.
We got de motion.

Yet none, not one hamster bowed before King or Queen, Emporer or Duke
of Earl. As I walk thru this Kingdom no one can stop the Duke of Earl.
No one.
