Bluff, Bullshit and Rhetoric.

I thought AOPA had called for full steam; damn the guns and were gearing up for a full frontal attack. Perhaps there is a cunning plan:-

Before the dance begins, it is usual for the orchestra to play a couple of introductory bars; perhaps that is what we are hearing. It is to be hoped that the boys don’t get bashful and the ladies go all coy; that would spoil the fun of the thing. It’s almost like a brawl – you are either in it to win it; or you need a taxi. I reckon Morgan has kicked off a dust up; and, like it or like it not, the gauntlet has been picked up. You can only depend on bluff and bluster for so long. Real fighters don’t do much in the way of ‘rhetoric’ – they get it done as fast as possible. CASA is, despite the bad press, a serious heavyweight contender and victorious veteran of many serious punch-ups; get tangled up with ‘em you’ll find out, fairly smartly, that hair pulling and bitch slapping don’t matter a hoot. It’s a slugfest: and, if you believe bringing a knife to a gun fight is a silly idea; then you must consider your options carefully. Taking on CASA as a publicity stunt is one thing, although not recommended for long term well being. You have to mean it and you need facts to back up your call; even then, you’ll need a sponsor, a support network, a shed load of the green stuff and a good medical team in the wings.

Taking on CASA with a bowl of rice pudding is like try to shove a wet noodle up a Tigers posterior orifice –

Toot – toot. - (Well, I'm over it - ain't I).
