Or “why does the Republican Party keep acting like Captain Luis Manuel Pinho?”
Translation: “Are you willing to die to save the life of a whale?”
So which Captain do we see in the Establishment Republican wing of the Party?
I have to admit that I’ve been watching this “reality show” for quite some time. Whether or not you want to save whales, or even the politics of the thing, I watch if for no other reason to see if the Japanese were finally going to go” all ninja” on these self-righteous bullies whose morality allow them to attempt to or actually destroy other peoples’ private property to advance their agenda. Not, too, that they are far to easy to call themselves “Victims!” when the bullied retaliate (must have taken lessons from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton; that white boy Paul Watson can’t jump but can learn Democrat political theory). Anyways, for his antics over the years Watson is now in the legal dinghy in a roiling see – Ninth Circuit has ruled against Sea Shepherd USA and Interpol has warrants out for him.
Thus “sidelined”, a “non-entity,” but with the addition of a new ship (irony: a former Japanese whaler) that allowed two new Captains to step up “for the mission”:
- Captain Luis Manuel Pinho – a history of being a commercial captain, in charge of M/V Sam Simon (purchase monies given by the Simpson’s Exec producer, Sam Simon)
- Captain Peter Hammarstedt – a 29 year old (a save the whaler since 14), in charge of M/V Bob Barker (purchase monies given by game show host Bob Barker)
Let’s apply this to the current Republican Civil War – which kind of Captain do we really want?
