Time To Wake Up America!

2011-10-17T15:09:00.000-05:00

**I first posted this as a comment over at The Widdershins and then thought.."Hell, just post it on your blog also."**

It's Time To Wake Up America!!!!

I do not believe anything will come of this "Occupy Wall Street Movement" unless more people..Democrat…Republican…Independent….So-called Tea partiers etc… ALL come together as one and realize that “Class Warfare” has indeed been declared and has been since Reagan.
This is not to suggest that I do not support these brave Brothers and Sisters...Mothers and fathers...Grandmothers and Grandfathers...I do!

But I also believe unless we come together as one people with a common goal then the "Powers that be" and their "Flying Monkey Brigade" will do anything and everything to ensure we as a people remain ignorant and blind to what is happening all around us!

Sure we had a “brief” period in time when Clinton tried to hold the Barbarians from storming the gates but even the “Big Dawg” was outflanked ( With the scheming help of some in his own party no less )!

Once the “Idiot known as Bush” was “Installed” ( by decree of the “Masters of the Universe” and THEIR “Supreme Court”) it was only a matter of time before the middle class was reduced to poverty and serfdom!

The only way we as a people are ever going to take back or country from the Oligarchy and change the downward trajectory our country has been in since 2000 is to hold the people we elect accountable for the votes they make….the money they take from special interest’ and their slimy ass lobbyist bag men…………

Hold these hypocrites to account for everything they do when the cameras are not on them……………

Hold them accountable for their slithering into dark corners to make deals that benefit their “Masters” as the majority of the people sink further into poverty……

Hold them accountable for EVERYTHING they do…. everything they say that does not jib with why they were elected in the first place….

Hold them accountable for “SELLING THEIR SOULS” to the highest bidder!

Also…

The obscene amount of money and Corporate influence in our elections has caused such a cancer of greed that it is virtually impossible to do the peoples will when those we elect spend 90 percent of their time prostituting themselves for campaign cash!

This has to end!

I have to believe that this movement can and will metastasize into something bigger! I want so badly to see the will of the people overcome the powerful forces arrayed against.
I want so much to believe that one day our media will begin to remember what and who they really are…not the “Corporate Stooges,” “the Meat Puppets” and “Talking Monkey” we see spewing the Corporate lies night after night…Line after line…Day after day!

I want so much to believe that we as a people can prevail but I live in the real world and the only thing these people respect is power and I fear we are headed towards some dangerous times ahead!

Far too many in this country are too divided…too racist..too homophobic…too sexist…too greedy…too IGNORANT to understand what has happened to them and who is responsible for their plight!

Until we “ALL” wake the “EFF” up and realize that we are “ALL” in this sinking boat together and until we start to work as “ONE” to rid ourselves of the “Wolves, the Scavengers and the Roaches” that have preyed on our carcass for far too long….Then we as a “Free” people are doomed to the trash bin that all Empires succumb to in the end!

But I still have hope…despite the forces arrayed against the brothers and sisters that have put their bodies on the line and turned out to “Occupy Wall Street”( not to mention the protests around the country and the world ) I have hope that we can prevail and “Occupy Humanity” and by doing so……Save ourselves!

It's time to decide...

"Do you want to continue to act the part of the sheep and to serve as fool and prey to the Politicians that lie to you......Humiliate you...Steal from you....Laugh at you....Look down on you as they sell you for the scraps off the table of their Corporate Pimps ?"

"Are you you and yours or the people you surround yourselves finally angry enough.....Are you poor enough.....Are you sick enough to finally rise up and say......ENOUGH?"

I am and to you I say.....WAKE UP!

The time is Now!

Occupy WallStreet Protestors Attacked Again By NYPD Goon Squads

2011-10-05T23:30:00.003-05:00

New York's finest just can't help themselves.

On October 5th, protestors were attacked again while the Nations media did their best to ignore what was happening in their own back yard.....

via Huffington Post:

Just before 8 p.m. Wednesday, reportedly at the corner of Broadway and Wall Street, a New York Police Department officer appeared to turn on a throng of activists with the Occupy Wall Street movement, hitting them with a baton. A video posted hours later to YouTube shows the officer wielding the baton with two hands -- like a baseball bat -- as he swings at and strikes the demonstrators. At one point, a woman can be heard shrieking in the background.
The white-shirt cop, most likely a supervisor, had stood next to at least a half-dozen other officers, including other department brass. The video shows the officer appearing to nudge a spectator out of the way, back up and raise his baton. He then gets off three swings before the crowd appears to surge toward him -- digital cameras and video recorders held high.
This may be the first of many videos documenting clashes between the police and Occupy Wall Street. At the end of the video a few in the crowd chant: "The whole world is watching! The whole world is watching!"

It is unclear from the video what provoked the officer's actions, but HuffPost's Matt Sledge, who was at the scene, reports the baton swinging took place after a handful of people had been arrested for attempting to cross a police barricade.
When reached for comment Friday night, a New York Police Department spokesman who refused to be identified said he had heard about the video but had not seen it and therefore could not comment.
Throughout the night, activists had reported via Twitter that the police had resorted to using pepper spray and had made some arrests. A spokesperson for Occupy Wall Street later reported some 20 arrests in total.
Fox 5, the local affiliate in New York, reported that police officers had struck the station's journalists with batons and doused them with pepper spray:

The White Mice strike again!!!!

Tthis what our Politicians ( and the "Meat Monkey's" that fling their verbal shit on what passes for "News" in our Country ) were complaining about when they rose up in righteous indignation at the abuses they saw in Egypt/Tunisia/Syria? Libya being dished out by those Government's goons against their own people?
Did they not rail against the abuses they saw on their Tee Vee screens day in and day out and rush to align themselves with what they claimed was the "Rights of FREE PEOPLES EVERYWHERE" to demand JUSTICE when they, the people, were being oppressed by the powers that had enslaved the for so long?

Did our Government not rush to bomb Libya after it's leader and his police state attacked and brutally crushed his people for demanding FREEDOM from tyranny?

Did our Government not turn it's back on one of it's allies in Egypt's Mubarak when his people rose up and demanded that the boot of oppression be lifted from their necks?

I mean...It was so bad that they just had to send ( CNN's ) Anderson "Pooper" sCooper to be one with his brothers in Egypt did they not?
Why isn't ""Pooper" sCooper hanging out with HIS people down on Wall Street?

So I ask...."Why isn't our Government falling all over themselves to support the People demanding JUSTICE in our own back yard? Where are the speeches, the Air power, the military. The CIA hit squads now that America's own are demanding the same justice folks all over the world are demanding?

Where are our LEADERS?

Corporate Whore Hypocrites! Each and every one of them! No wonder the World despises us. Do as I say...Not as I do!

And then there is this: Here we have one of NYPD's finest bragging to the young man behind the video camera with glee on how his Nightstick: was going to get a work out tonight:

Disgusting piece of pig shit!

By the way: Do you think this would have happened or gone unnoticed had it been a Tea Bagger with a misspelled sign that was attacked by UNION POLICE????

No, somehow I think CNN, Fox and MSNBC would have all been falling all over themselves to report so you could decide!!!!!

Political Hypocrisy Is The Chicago Way

2011-08-24T11:49:00.000-05:00

They don't care if anyone knows they are one and the same anymore.....

Chicago SunTimes

"Two weeks ago, U.S. House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) came to Hinsdale to raise money for Republicans to fight the congressional map drawn under the direction of state Democratic Party chief and Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan.
The very next night, the congressman broke bread with Madigan (D-Chicago) at a fund-raiser for Boehner’s leadership fund at the Lemont home of Chicago Mercantile Exchange Chairman Terry Duffy.
Madigan’s little-known appearance has left partisans in both political camps in a state of disbelief.
It all comes as the wily Illinois House speaker is supposed to be fighting to regain congressional seats lost last year to Republicans who helped Boehner become speaker.
And Boehner, the principle impediment to President Barack Obama’s congressional agenda, is supposed to be leading Republicans against Madigan’s map so they can keep their U.S. House majority and he can remain speaker.
So why was Madigan there?"

**snip**

"Though Madigan was re-elected state party chairman without opposition in 2010, his appearance at the Boehner event on top of his recent string of absences at key Democratic functions has drawn ire from some within his party.
“Going to a fund-raiser for the speaker of the House, who has done nothing to cooperate with the president of the United States, really is unfortunate,” Democratic Party strategist and consultant Kitty Kurth said. “I think that the speaker could strengthen the Democratic Party in Illinois if he showed the same kind of respect and cooperation with other Democrats, including Gov. Quinn.
“I would hope that the chairman of our Democratic Party in Illinois can find some time to attend events with Democrats across the state and support their campaigns,” she continued. “If you want Democrats to show up for you, you need to show up for them.

This is how things are done here in Chicago. The Democrats and the Rethugs are one and the same and anyone who has ever dipped that toe into the cess pool that is Chicago politics knows that there is NO difference between the two.

Chicago was a perfect political breeding ground for Obama. In Chicago politics, one says one thing and then does another. The two parties have such an incestuous relationship that it's become a way of life here.

Although it may not be exclusive to Chicago, Political hypocrisy has been elevated to an art form here.

Just ask Obama!

Hi. I'm Barack Obama and Your Not!

Perry's Texas

2011-08-09T13:14:00.001-05:00

With all the Media's attention placed at the feet of Texas' Governor Rick Perry and his so-called "Christian Values" you would think "SOMEONE" in the lame stream media would tell you what the "Reality" on the ground is for most Texans....

Burnt Orange:

"The biggest gathering in Houston yesterday should tell America all it needs to know about Rick Perry. I'm not talking about the estimated 30,000 individuals who visited Reliant Stadium yesterday for The Response, a event endorsed by religious extremists and known hate-mongers. I'm talking about the 100,000 Texans who waited in line for free school supplies, immunizations, fresh produce, and school uniforms.
The Houston Chronicle reports:
Some families camped out for hours to gain admittance into Houston's first-ever, citywide back-to-school event at George R. Brown Convention Center, where free backpacks, school supplies, uniforms, haircut vouchers, immunizations and fresh produce were provided. Others were turned away.
"It was getting beyond capacity," HISD spokesman Jason Spencer said. "If nothing else, it shows the need."
While our three-term governor was busy self-promoting to evangelical Christians in preparation to announce his bid for President, the actual people he governs were attempting to mitigate the damage he's done to regular working Texas families just trying to get by. While Perry's faithful lined up to break their fast with hot dogs and nachos, his constituents stood in the 90+ degree heat for bags of fruit and vegetables.
Sadly, there weren't enough school supplies available to meet the tremendous need:
Beatrice Jones, who has two children in the Spring school district, arrived about 10:15 a.m. with her daughter and niece, only to find the doors closed and a police officer announcing the event was over. "They were supposed to have school supplies, but all we got was sweating and paid parking," Jones said.
School Superintendent Terry Grier posted a Twitter message Saturday morning that security personnel had estimated the crowd at 100,000. At about 10 a.m., officials made the call to close the doors.
Although planners didn't know how many people would attend, they expected to serve at least 25,000 children, officials said.
Where are the gasping media reports of over 100,000 Texans waiting in the hot sun for school supplies and food? Where are the statistics about how Texas has some of the highest rates nationally of poverty and food insecurity in all of the breathless coverage of Rick Perry's 'Texas Miracle'? Where was the caravan of reporters from news outlets across America, interviewing the victims, rather than the worshipers, of the Perry administration? I suppose it's nice that The Response had an almost four-fold increase in turnout for a day of prayer over the expected 8,000, but it's horrifying that a charitable event for families of Texas schoolchildren should also see such a tremendous increase in turnout.
After all, needy families are about as common in Texas as failed missives to the Almighty are at Reliant Stadium.
Am I crazy and naive to wish that those 30,000 in attendance at Reliant had spent their time yesterday actually clothing the poor, feeding the hungry, or visiting the sick, rather than just praying for the free market to fix it for them?
Because while Rick Perry was ministering to the flock at the football stadium, it sure looks like a whole lot more of the "least of these brothers and sisters" were waiting in line for school supplies yesterday, not waiting in line to sway and pray."

And this is the man the Rethugs are drooling over themselves to run this country?

So much for "Christian Values eh?"

We are in some deep shit in this country folks!

Thanks to Riverdaughter and The Confluence for bringing this to my attention.

I was going to write something to express how utterly outraged I was when I was done reading this but I think I had better not. So instead, I'll post it in it's entirety and hopefully someone more eloquent than I can come up with the words that escape me right now.

Read how YOUR Government bailed out the World's Banks, Corporations and just about everyone else except YOU the American public that is on the hook to pay for it all!!!!!!

Veil of secrecy lifted at the Fed

By Senator Bernie Sanders
July 25, 2011
For over three and a half years, Vermonters and people throughout this country have experienced the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. Millions of Americans, through no fault of their own, have lost their jobs, homes, life savings and ability to send their kids to college. Small businesses have been unable to get the credit they need to expand their businesses, and credit is still extremely tight. Wages as a share of national income are now at the lowest level since the Great Depression with workers who still have jobs working longer hours for lower wages.
Meanwhile, when small business owners and Vermonters were being turned down for loans at private banks, the Federal Reserve provided trillions of dollars in loans at nearly zero interest to the largest financial institutions, major corporations and some of the wealthiest people in the world with virtually no strings attached.
More than two years ago, I asked Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, a few simple questions that I thought the American people had a right to know: Who did the Fed bail out? How much did they receive? What were the terms of this assistance?

Incredibly, the chairman of the Fed refused to answer these fundamental questions about how trillions of taxpayer dollars were being put at risk.

Thanks to an amendment that I included in the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act to audit and investigate the Fed, the American people are finally getting answers to these questions.

A few days ago, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office completed the first independent investigation into the emergency actions taken by the Federal Reserve. As a result of this investigation, we now know that the Federal Reserve provided a jaw-dropping $16 trillion in total financial assistance to some of the largest financial institutions and corporations in the world.

Among the investigation's key findings is that the Fed unilaterally provided trillions of dollars in financial assistance to foreign banks and corporations from South Korea to Scotland. In my view, no agency of the United States government should be allowed to bail out a foreign bank or corporation without the direct approval of Congress and the president.

The GAO also determined that the Fed lacks a comprehensive system to deal with conflicts of interest, despite the serious potential for abuse. In fact, according to the report, the Fed provided conflict-of-interest waivers to employees and private contractors so they could keep investments in the same financial institutions and corporations that were given emergency loans.

For example, the CEO of JP Morgan Chase served on the New York Fed's board of directors at the same time that his bank received more than $390 billion in financial assistance from the Fed. Moreover, JP Morgan Chase served as one of the clearing banks for the Fed's emergency lending programs.

The GAO investigation also revealed that the Fed outsourced virtually all of the operations of its emergency lending programs to private contractors like JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo. The same firms also received trillions of dollars in Fed loans at near-zero interest rates. Altogether some two-thirds of the contracts that the Fed awarded to manage its emergency lending programs were no-bid contracts. Morgan Stanley was given the largest no-bid contract, worth $108.4 million, to help manage the Fed bailout of AIG.

Getting this type of disclosure was not easy. Wall Street and the Federal Reserve fought it every step of the way. But, as difficult as it was to lift the veil of secrecy at the Fed, it will be even harder to reform the Fed so that it is more responsive to the needs of ordinary Vermonters and small business owners. One thing is abundantly clear: Vermonters and people throughout this country deserve a government that works for them, not just the CEOs on Wall Street.

So Much For Those "Small Donors"

2011-07-16T08:24:00.002-05:00

Obama is amassing quite a financial war chest. It was reported recently that the Obama campaign has raised 86 million dollars in the second quarter of the year!

Wow! 86 million dollars!

Obama and his campaign love to claim that "average" folk are what keeps his campaign coffers stuffed to the breaking point with their so-called "small" contributions.The Obama campaign claimed the same back in 2008. "The people" gave all they could and that was the source of all that cash Obama raised...or was it?

Seems Obama and his campaign are trying to get you to believe that instead of the vast majority of these funds coming from Billionaire/Millionaire/Corporate/Wall Street/ Over Seas shady donors, that they are actually coming from Mom and Pop, Elderly, teens, young folk, starving poor and quickly starving middle class folk that just love them some Obama. Love him enough to send, on average...$69.00!!

Bullshit!

And now, at lest, two reporters are questioning that story...

Personal Democracy Forum:

Obama Raises a Whopping $86M, But Not As Grassroots as They Want You To Think

Obama campaign manager Jim Messina has announced that Obama 2012 has raised a whopping $86 million in the second quarter of this year, shattering George W. Bush's prior record of $50 million in a quarter, and way ahead of Obama's fundraising pace four years ago. The official report will be filed with the FEC this Friday, but Messina continued the campaign's tradition of reporting "first" to its grassroots email list via YouTube video. The numbers are impressive, but there's a catch.
Messina emphasizes the grass-roots base of Obama 2012 in the video, rattling off statistic after statistic: 31,000 face-to-face meetings conducted by organizers; 290,000 conversations; 650 local organizing meetings; 60 field offices set up across the country. These are impressive numbers, and further indication of how the Obama team tracks field data.
But when it comes to the hard numbers of campaign finance, Messina tries to pull a fast one on his supposedly grassroots audience when it comes to describing, as he puts it, "who we raised it from." He proudly touts the campaign's 552,462 individual donors who gave more than 680,000 contributions in the second quarter. If you had any doubt that we are living in an age of mass participation in national politics, enabled by the internet's ease of communication, here's more proof. Ninety-eight percent of all those contributions, he notes, were in amounts of $250 or less, with an average donation size of just $69, proof of Obama's roots "small dollar, ordinary people" kind of politics.
There's just one problem with this claim: The $86 million raised by the Obama campaign in this quarter didn't come with an average donation size of $69. That's because, as Messina notes near the video's end, $38 million of that whopping total went to the Democratic National Committee, via the Obama Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee that Obama controls. At OVF fundraisers, a donor can give up to $5,000 to the presidential campaign committee and another $30,800 to the DNC. (Here's an invitation to one that happened recently in Chicago, starring Rahm Emanuel.)
"We can bet," says Michael Malbin of the Campaign Finance Institute, which is working on analyzing the details buried in the campaign's forthcoming 15,000 page report to the FEC, "that most of the party money came from people who maxed out. " He added in an email to me, "Interestingly, by going to people for 30K this calendar year, he can go back again next year for another 30K. It's one of the perqs of incumbency." An analysis by the Center for Responsive Politics of DNC fundraising between January and May 2011 found that the committee raised $11 million from donors contributing more than $30,000 compared with just $3 million raised in that category by the Republican National Committee. Big checks of $10,000 and up were 38% of that haul, compared to just 18% in that category for Republicans.
Multiply 680,000 by $69 and you get about $46.9 million. Messina's appears to want things both ways--a record-breaking money haul AND the appearance of being a campaign "owned" by ordinary people. That may be the case to the extent that you think maxing-out donors from Wall Street, Silicon Valley and Hollywood are "ordinary people."

And then there's this from The Washington Examiner.com

"We did this from the bottom up," Barack Obama's campaign manager, Jim Messina, said in a new video touting the President's fundraising success. Messina and other Democrats are peddling the line that Obama's massive $86 million haul last quarter resulted from mobs of regular Americans cutting small checks. In truth, Obama's campaign is like every other presidential campaign -- mostly funded by wealthy individuals and special interests, many of whom profit from the president's policies.

*snip*

Of the $31.1 million the DNC has raised in contributions this year, almost two-thirds -- $19.3 million -- has come from individuals giving $10,000 or more, according to my analysis of FEC data. So, judging by all available data, rich people cutting big checks are providing an overwhelming majority of Obama's re-election money.
Obama's reliance on rich donors cutting five-figure checks isn't unusual or surprising, but it does clash with the image his campaign puts forward. Messina's web videos, like most of Obama's fundraising emails, push the myth that the campaign is mostly funded by ordinary people cutting $50 checks. It may be true that 98 percent of donations to the Obama campaign were $250 or less, but that's not a very telling statistic.
First, a donor could cut 20 $250 checks to contribute the $5,000 maximum to the campaign. More importantly, Messina never broke down that 98 percent and 2 percent by dollar amount. Maybe half of the campaign's money came from that "richest 2 percent," to adapt an Obama phrase.
Also, Messina was only parsing contributions to Obama for America (where donors are limited to $2,500 for the primary, and $2,500 for the general), and not the contributions to the DNC (where donors can give $30,800 per year), thus skewing the data toward smaller contributions.
This small-dollar donor myth is part of Obama's effort to portray himself as the scourge of special interests. Obama proxies on Wednesday were casting his $86 million haul in the context of "secret" money promised by libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch. The narrative is clear: Obama is the man of the people, while Republicans are the party of Big Business. That's half-right.

Here's something that is sure to make you split a rib laughing:

"We didn't accept one single dollar from Washington lobbyists," Messina also bragged.

* Bold emphasis mine*

Don't hold your breath waiting to see Obama or his Campaign flunkies questioned on this by the "lame Stream media."

Oh well..............................So much for Grandma's "small donation!"

.And Then They Said This.........

2011-07-15T17:43:00.003-05:00

Oh how the Stupid Burns.

Want a good laugh?

Watch this......................

BwaaHaaaHaaa....And they call it a "News Organization?

Steve Doocy and EVERY single person that works for this fake News organization is a freaking JOKE!

Crook and Liars:

"The phone hacking scandal surrounding News Corp is a huge, huge story—except to "Fox and Friends" co-host Steve Doocy.
Doocy and his guest, the colorfully-named Bob Dilenschneider dismissed the hubbub on Friday's show. Doocy said that the media was "piling on" and was ignoring more important issues.
"We've got some serious problems in this country ... and what do they do?" he said. "They talk about this."
Dilenschneider agreed, saying that there has been "too much" coverage of the scandal, and that people should "move on." Doocy said, "I think you're right."
Dilenschneider also said that News Corp has done "all the right things" in its response to the scandal. He then likened News Corp. to companies that have been the victims of hacking, such as Citigroup, American Express and Bank of America. It was an odd analogy, given that News Corp is not a hacking victim, but has actually hacked others."

*Bold emphasis mine*

Doocy proves himself an idiot every time he opens his mouth and his quest is no better. Kinda makes you wonder where they dug this carcass up from to spew the Murdoch bile

I was going to attempt a bit of comedic idiot slapping but decided against it. The video speaks for itself.!

Grover Is Full Of Shit!

2011-07-15T16:50:00.000-05:00

Grover Norquist is full of shit!

"FULL OF SHIT!"

Anyone who takes this repulsive lizard seriously is missing more than a few brain cells.

This creature is utterly disgusting and if you ever had the misfortune of having to had listened to this putrid blob of hyena after-birth, you quickly, and I do mean QUICKLY, realize you are listening to someone that is so utterly full of shit that one doubts if he believes the shit he's slinging!

Below, Pierce Morgan asks this cloven hoofed purveyor of right wing bullshit what percentage of blame should the Re-Thug-Nicans have for the mess our country finds itself in today and as usual, this Republican parasite immediately attempts to blame Obama for the Nations ills.
For Norquist and his ilk to attempt to place the blame all on Obama for the state of our economy, the deficit, the Iraq and Afghanistan wars ( Libya and Pakistani Drone attacks are Obama's baby ) The 'Original Bush Tax cuts ( although why we continue to call them the "Bush Tax Cuts is beyond me. correct me if I am wrong but didn't Obama continue these tax cuts? So...Do they now deserve to be call the Obama Tax Cuts?) shows you just how bat shit crazy these people really are.

Crooks and Liars:

NORQUIST: We need to get away from partisan politics.

MORGAN: Why don't we -- let's put it all in the mix.
NORQUIST: And solve the problem.
MORGAN: Let's put it all in the mix. All in the mix, everything taken into account, percentage of the current crisis down to Republican decisions versus Democrat. Give me a percentage.
NORQUIST: Well, OK, the Republicans have put forward a budget under Ryan cut $6 trillion out of the Obama budget. Obama has accepted none of that so he's 100 percent responsible.
MORGAN: So President Obama is 100 percent responsible for our current financial crisis.
NORQUIST: For the failure -- for the failure to get our -- get out spending down.
MORGAN: Isn't your answer exactly what the problem is? For you to sit there and just look me straight in the eye down this camera and say President Obama is 100 percent responsible for the financial crisis in America, it's obviously complete hogwash.
And that kind of partisan opinion is what is preventing any kind of sensible deal, a strategy being achieved, isn't it?"

Norquist and the creatures that think like him (98 percent of the Repulsive Party ) are what is destroying this country. The stupidity and ignorance of these people is astounding!

Why the media continue to give creatures like Grover a national platform to advance their disinformation that "Gum-mint and taxes" are what ails us and that once we get rid of the "Gum-mint" and turn everything over to the "Free market" all will be well. These people actually believe that the richest 1 percent give a good goddamn about them.

I have news for you folks.............THEY DON'T!!!!!

I am happy someone ( Morgan) finally bitch slapped Norquist and his "Gum-Mint" taxes don't work bullshit! Now what would it take for the rest of the Media would finally wise up and call this creature out on his bullshit?

What She Said

2011-07-14T11:46:00.000-05:00

La-t-da @ The Widdershins:

"I have been looking for words. Deeper than daily news and staged press briefings, sentiment more revealing than head line snippets. And, my mind is tired of analyzing how it all happened or processing the loss of all hope that the Democratic Party will ever again resemble the party of FDR. Social security and medicare ~~are~~ was the Democratic Party. Equal rights was just the fancy window dressing that kept us hanging on. "

Thank you La. You articulated what many of us have been feeling.

Hat tip to Myiq2xu for pulling my coat to this fool!

Stephen Marche is this Obot's name and yesterday he published his "Strawberry Letter 22" explaining his all encompassing love for everything Obama.

Please, allow me to set this up with a bit of "music" as you explore the mind of a deranged Obot:

Stephen Marche:

How Can We Not Love Obama?

"Before the fall brings us down, before the election season begins in earnest with all its nastiness and vulgarity, before the next batch of stupid scandals and gaffes, before Sarah Palin tries to convert her movie into reality and Joe Biden resumes his imitation of an embarrassing uncle and Newt and Callista Gingrich [FIG.1] creep us all out, can we just enjoy Obama for a moment? Before the policy choices have to be weighed and the hard decisions have to be made, can we just take a month or two to contemplate him the way we might contemplate a painting by Vermeer or a guitar lick by the early-seventies Rolling Stones or a Peyton Manning pass or any other astounding, ecstatic human achievement? Because twenty years from now, we're going to look back on this time as a glorious idyll in American politics, with a confident, intelligent, fascinating president riding the surge of his prodigious talents from triumph to triumph. Whatever happens this fall or next, the summer of 2011 is the summer of Obama."

Okay...Now pick yourselves off the floor. There's more:

"Due to the specific nature of his political calculus, possibly not a single person in the United States — not even Obama himself — agrees with all of his policies. But even if you disagree with him, even if you hate him, even if you are his enemy, at this point you must admire him. The turning point came that glorious week in the spring when, in the space of a few days, he released his long-form birth certificate, humiliated Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and assassinated Osama bin Laden. The effortlessness of that political triptych — three linked masterpieces demonstrating his total command over intellectual argument, low comedy, and the spectacle of political violence — was so overwhelmingly impressive that it made political geniuses of the recent past like Reagan and Clinton [FIG.2] seem ham-fisted. Formed in the fire of other people's wars, other people's financial crises, Obama stepped out of Bush's shadow that week, almost three years after taking over the presidency."

**snip**

"We love Obama — even those who claim to despise him — because deep in our hearts and all over our lives, we're the same way — both inside and outside our jobs, our races, our cities, our countries, ourselves. With great artists, often the most irritating feature of their work is the source of their talent. Obama's gift is the same as his curse: He's somehow managed to be like the rest of us, only infinitely more so.

I don't know about you but I'm about ready to bust a bladder here!

I don't know what else to say except that if you care to read the rest of this garbage, follow this link.
It's worth a good laugh!

The Stupid Burns!!!!

2011-07-11T12:46:00.006-05:00

We had a pretty violent storm come through Chicago this morning and power was knocked out for a few hours. So, needless to say, my cable was off while ComEd repaired the antiquated power lines. When the power was finally restored and my television jumped to life, I was greeted with, quite possibly, the absolute worst, sorry ass excuse for television I have ever had the misfortune to lays eyes on!!!!!

The Real Housewives of New York Reunion!!!!!!

I want to jab my eyes out with spoons and ram steel spikes into my ear drums after enduring this nonsense for 2 minutes until my cable box finally allowed me to exorcise these sell absorbed, whiny, pampered, air head, full of shit, spoiled women off my teebee!!!!

How can ANYONE watch that shit??

OMG...The Stupid, It Burns!!!!!!!

These Politicians No Longer Care If You Know That They Despise You!!!!!!

2011-07-07T16:15:00.008-05:00

We all Know that for many a generation, the Re-Thug-Nican Party has not given a good Goddamn about the poor in this country. To hear them describe the poor, they are nothing more than a tick on a dogs ass. A pimple on the ass of humanity. The shit stain on the wealthy overlord's Lilly white underwear!

This is what the rich and their political meat puppets ( be them Democrat or Republican ) have always thought of those they deemed "Below" them.

I have no illusions as to what the "Overlords" of this country would do to those of us that have not. I have no doubt that, if given the opportunity, millions of us would be put into shackles and forced to serve at the whims of the Uber rich and their Multi-National Corporations!

As we sit and wring our hands, watching as our way of life is rapidly being dismantled. As our social safety nets are being torn down by a man many blindly followed as an agent of change ( although 18 million voters knew better, it wasn't enough to keep their votes from being stolen. And...it was done in broad daylight without any fear of repercussion from the masses.) and the politicians ( Be they Democrat or Republican ) who have sold their collective asses to the highest corporate bidder.

These so-called "Elected Officials" no longer care that you know that they despise you!
They no longer hide their disgust at your "Parasitic subsistence" on the Governments corpse!
They no longer hide the utter revulsion they hold for the poor!
They no longer have any "FEAR" of the very people that they pander to so that the votes they need are secured with the one hand as the other wields the blade that slices the very throat of those they just pandered to!
Oh, and they no longer give a shit that you know that they consider the so-called "middle Class" the nations piggy bank and if that Middle Class can not pay in treasure for the folly, the lifestyles and the excesses of the Versailles court, then by God they will squeeze it out in blood!!!!!

Witness a "God Fearing, Bible quoting political prostitute" share, without fear of having his "REAL" constituents tar and feather him, share his thoughts on who should be made to pay and who he believes shouldn't:

Huffington Post:

WASHINGTON -- Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) voted against beginning debate on a measure that would have the Senate declare the rich should share the pain of debt reduction Thursday, a day after arguing that it's the poor and middle class who need to do more.

"I hear how they're so caring for the poor and so forth," Hatch said in remarks on the Senate floor Wednesday, in reference to Democrats. "The poor need jobs! And they also need to share some of the responsibility."

Now I know many of you can read between the lines here. You can hear Hatch's dog whistle. You know where he is going with this attack. By the way...even an ideologue of Hatch's considerable hypocrisy knows that if a person is in absolute poverty, there is NOTHING short of blood that can be squeezed from him/her. So his seeming compassion about not wanting ALL poor folk to pay is utter bullshit!!!!!

It's unbelievable that a politician would publicly argue that the poor need to tighten their belts, shut the fuck up and share responsibility to ensure the rich are not inconvenienced by higher taxes on their stupendous riches!!!!

Once upon a time in America, we the people rose up and demanded better wages. We demanded safer working conditions. Shorter work hours. Fair pay for a fairs days work. Vacation time away from the pits that we toiled in. An end to child labor. Health care. Good roads. Better schools for our children. Safer products. Clean air and clean water to breathe and to drink. Etc...Etc..Etc..

These things were hard fought and hard won. Many lost lives and sacrificed everything in the pursuit of these things.

There was "Once" a party that fought the forces of evil to ensure that the masses would never again be subject to the cruel and inhuman conditions that permeated the so called "Industrial Age."

That party was hijacked by the multi-millionaires yearning for absolute power and ways to enrich themselves further. Both parties have become a haven for the Uber Rich or a stepping stone for those that wish to enter that world. **Cough cough..Obama anyone?**

That party was once a bastion of "Liberal thinking."
Of Progressive ideas meant to further enrich the lives of EVERYONE.
It was a party of women. Of gays/Lesbians.
A party that welcomed the poor.
The immigrant.
Those of and religion, race or creed.
It was once a party that cared for the countries forgotten.
A party of people that cared for it's countries sick and old.
It cared for it's countries young and it didn't matter if they were black or white. Red or yellow. Straight or gay. Man or Woman!

This was once the party I believed in. The party I belonged to. The party of my parents.

The Democratic Party!

So, today I read that the man supposedly elected to bring "Hope and Change!" ( although I nor millions of others were ever fooled by this propaganda bullshit.) We knew what he was and tried to warn those among us not to drink the Kool Aid! Little good that did. We were branded racist and told to either support the "Light Giver" or suffer the pain of not being COOL!

The pandering "Light Bringer" was enshrined on Mount Olympus for all the world to worship and all was well until "Obama the Great" decided to shed his cloak of many colors and reveal who he really was and is!

This Democratic pretender was known to many of us here in Chicago and millions more were hip to his charade from day one. He was gifted the Presidency and became Emperor to a country devastated by two wars that the previous REPUBLICAN administration lied us into.

An economy brought to it's knees by Wall Street's greed and excesses.
A tsunami of jobs being shipped out of our country and the Fat Cats screaming that they need more regulation lest they lose a few million of of their BILLIONS!
And the lose of our civil liberties and the curtailing of our rights by the increasingly militaristic "civilian "Goon Squads" we call the Police.

I could go on and on but I'm afraid no one is listening.

So......Today, I watched a Republican Senator argue for the poor to "Share" more of a responsibility to ensure the sensibilities of his rich corporate masters wouldn't have to endure having to wipe their ass with 50 dollars bills instead of 100s!

And it made me sick to my stomach!

Today I witnessed how a REAL prostitute does business!

A Plank In Their Eye

2011-06-16T07:41:00.007-05:00

Matthew 7:5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.

Hypocrite : [hip-uh-krit]–noun
1.
a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
2.
a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

The above has been on my mind lately as the Media, the so-called Political Elite and every scumbag Politician ( Democrat and Repugnican) cry from the mountain top that the "Weiner must go!"

Let's be clear about something before we go on. What Rep. Weiner did was incredibly stupid but it was not illegal. And yet, what David Vitter did was illegal and no one, not the slimy politicians, the national media nor the moral crusaders are calling for his scalp. More on that "God fearing" piece of pig excrement in a moment.

Rep. Weiner should have known that there were folks out to claim his (or any Democratic ) scalp. He should have known that nothing is safe nowadays and around ever corner and under every pile of dog shit a Breitbart waits to soil your shoes. This is the age we live in. He should have known that the women he was "sexting" would sell their stories once the feeding frenzy began.

The Re-Pug-Nicans are all in a lather pointing their self-righteous fingers at the moral depravity that is Weiner yet in their midst sulk quite a few moral degenerates. John Boehner ( or do you say BONER?) is close to shedding tears at the thought of Rep. Weiner flaunting his " sizable package" to a few more than willing "female" participants. Maybe if he had flashed his "boner" in a "Men's toilet" at an "Airport in Minnesota, Johnny ( by the way..it's pronounced..B.O.N.E.R! Who the hell does Johnny think he's kidding? BOE is not pronounced BAY!) would have excused it. After all, there are Re-Thug-nican closet cases do love them some... eh hmm... "Weiner" do they not?

Case in point...

Mark Foley
U.S. Representative
(September 28, 2006)

The Crime: Sending sexually laced, grammatically challenged instant messages and e-mails to teenaged boys in the Congressional page program for more than 10 years.

The Hypocrisy: Chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children. One of the foremost opponents of child pornography in the Senate.

The Quote: "get a ruler and measure it for me."

Ted Haggard
Leader of the National Association of Evangelicals
(November 2006)

The Crime: Paying male prostitutes for sex and snorting crystal meth.

The Hypocrisy: A powerful force in the evangelical movement, Haggard participated in weekly meetings with President George Bush and top advisers where he gave spiritual advice. He taught that homosexuality was an abomination and actively lobbied against gay rights.

The Quote: "I did not have a homosexual relationship with a man in Denver."

Larry Craig
U.S. Senator
Senate Liaison for Mitt Romney's Presidential Campaign
(June 11, 2007)

The Crime: Soliciting sex from an undercover cop in an airport bathroom

The Hypocrisy: Craig twice voted against adding the words, sexual orientation, to the federal hate crimes law. Craig also voted to give states the right to refuse to recognize gay marriage, a right they already had, but the Senator wanted to really, really prove he didn't like gay people.
The Quote: "I am not gay, I don?t do these kinds of things."

Bob Allen
Member of the Florida House of Representatives
Florida Chairman of John McCain's Presidential Campaign
(July 11, 2007)

The Crime: Offering an undercover cop $20 to allow Allen to blow him in a mens room in a public park. After being arrested, Allen tried to explain that he only offered to blow the cop because the cop was a burly black man and he didn't want to become a statistic.
The Hypocrisy: Allen was one of 21 Florida legislators to sign Gov. Jeb Bush's friend-of-the-court brief supporting the state?s ban on gays adopting children, and he co-sponsored an unsuccessful bill that would have enhanced penalties for offenses involving unnatural and lascivious acts such as indecent exposure.

The Quote: 'I certainly wasn't there to have sex with anybody and certainly wasn't there to exchange money for it."
Glenn Murphy Jr.
National Chairman of the Young Republicans
Chairman of the Clark County Republican Party
(July 28, 2007)

The Crime: Murphy got a fellow Young Republican drunk and then spent the night at his house. The other young man woke up in the middle of the night to find Murphy giving him mouth-to-penis resuscitation. After this incident, a 1998 sexual battery report came to light in which Murphy was alleged to have done the exact same thing.
The Hypocrisy: Murphy was a well-paid political consultant for Republican candidates and often advised them to use gay marriage as a wedge issue to paint their opponents as out of touch with traditional values.

The Quote: ?I was in the Sound of Music in High School.Don't ask. (from his now-defunct Myspace page.)

Anyway......How's that verse go? "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Yeah ...sure. so much for that eh?

Now we come to David (The Shitter ) Vitter. Proud son and diaper wearer from the State of Louisiana.

Wikipedia:

In early July 2007, Vitter's phone number was included in a published list of phone records of Pamela Martin and Associates, a company owned and run by Deborah Jeane Palfrey, also known as the "D.C. Madam", convicted by the U.S. government for running a prostitution service. Hustler identified the phone number and contacted Vitter's office to ask about his connection to Palfrey.^[18]^[19] The following day, Vitter issued a written statement
"This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible. Several years ago, I asked for and received forgiveness from God and my wife in confession and marriage counseling. Out of respect for my family, I will keep my discussion of the matter there — with God and them. But I certainly offer my deep and sincere apologies to all I have disappointed and let down in any way.."
The statement containing Vitter's apology said his telephone number was included in phone records dating from his days as a member of the House of Representatives.^[6] Phone records show that Vitter's number was called by Palfrey's service five times, the first on October 12, 1999, and the last on February 27, 2001.^[21] Two calls were placed while House roll call votes were in progress.^[22]^[23]

On July 16, 2007, after a week of self-imposed seclusion, Vitter emerged and called a news conference. Standing next to his wife, Vitter asked the public for forgiveness. Following Vitter's remarks, Wendy Vitter, his wife, spoke. Both refused to answer any questions.^[24]^[25]^[26]

As background, several news outlets reported that in May 1999, Vitter replaced Congressman Bob Livingston after Livingston resigned due to an adultery scandal.^[1]^[27]^[28] Vitter said about Livingston's decision to resign, "It's obviously a tremendous loss for the state. I think Livingston's stepping down makes a very powerful argument that Clinton should resign as well and move beyond this mess", referring to Bill Clinton's Monica Lewinsky scandal.^[29]

Vitter will not face criminal charges due to the statute of limitations.^[30]

Vitter incurred significant legal and public relations expenses in his efforts to avoid giving testimony in the Palfrey trial and to respond to the ethics complaint. Consequently, his attorneys sought permission from the Federal Election Commission to use campaign funds to pay for these expenses.^[31]^[32] The Commission, along partisan lines, couldn't agree whether funds could be used for reimbursing costs related to the Palfrey trial but did allow them to pay for expenses connected to the Ethics Committee complaint.^[33]^[34]^[35]

[edit] Canal Street Madam

On July 10, 2007, Jeanette Maier, the "Canal Street Madam", alleged that Vitter was a customer on more than one occasion in the 1990s, when Maier was identified by federal prosecutors as operating a $300 per hour brothel.^[36] The Times-Picayune reported that "Maier offered no evidence or documents to support her claim."^[37] A polygraph (lie detector) test was arranged for a New Orleans prostitute who claimed Vitter hired her and had sexual intercourse with her. The prostitute passed the test.^[38]

[edit] Reaction

While the Louisiana state Republican Party offered guarded support,^[39] national Republicans offered forgiveness.^[40] The Nation predicted that the Republican Party would be in a "forgiving mood", pointing out if Vitter did step down, then Governor of Louisiana, Kathleen Blanco, a Democrat, would likely appoint a Democrat to take Vitter's place until a special election took place, thus increasing Democratic control over the Senate.^[41]^[42]^[43]

Republican Senator Sam Brownback told Bloomberg Television on October 5, 2007, that Vitter should be censured by the Senate. He said, "I think you could see something like that taking place. If you look at the actual crime itself and the discussion across the country– and as a Republican– this is bad."^[44]

In a similar vein when the Eliot Spitzer prostitution scandal — Spitzer being then governor of New York — hit the headlines, commentators contrasted the end-results: Spitzer resigned while Vitter stayed on.^[45]^[46]^[47] In response, Jeff Crouere, a New Orleans conservative political commentator, called on Vitter to resign, saying he was an ineffective representative and reflected poorly on the state.^[48] Other local political figures differed with Crouere. Democratic political consultant James Carville said the two cases were entirely different: Spitzer's situation developed from an active investigation and as a former prosecutor and governor he had powerful enemies. In contrast, Carville described Vitter as "Louisiana’s junior senator and nobody really knows him or cares that much about him," but concluded that, "if they paid with their own money, I don’t think either one should resign." The Louisiana Republican governor Bobby Jindal said, "Senator Vitter has already addressed this.... The people of New York can deal with the Governor of New York.”^[49] Additionally, one gauge of the scandal's impact — local fundraising — indicated that Vitter has weathered the controversy well: first quarter 2008 finance reports show that he made, according to The Times-Picayune, an "impressive haul".^[50] Another gauge, voter approval, indicates Vitter is, as of June 2008, still popular with Louisiana voters.^[51]

Following the June 2009 admission of Nevada Senator John Ensign that he had an affair with an employee of his Senate office, the Louisiana Democratic Party called on Senator Vitter to resign his leadership position (as a deputy whip) in the Senate, arguing that because Ensign had resigned his position as Republican Policy Committee Chairman of the United States Senate, Vitter should do the same.^[52]

From the Huffington Post there is this...

As Republican calls for the resignation of Democratic New York Rep. Anthony Weiner mount, the party is being forced to confront its own uncomfortable reality: sitting Senator David Vitter of Louisiana.
Vitter was discovered to have regularly used the prostitution service of Deborah Jean Palfrey, also known as the D.C. Madam, after details of an investigation into Palfrey's service were leaked to Hustler magazine.

Vitter admitted to using the Washington, D.C.-based prostitution service in July 2007. Even so, 27 prominent Republicans gave a total of $161,700 to Vitter's 2010 reelection effort.

One of those Republicans was John Cornyn, the head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Cornyn called on Weiner to resign Wednesday. In 2009, he gave Vitter $10,000 and as chair of the NRSC directed another $42,800 to his campaign, according to Federal Election Commission records.

House Speaker John Boehner has yet to weigh in on Weiner, but if he does, he may have to answer questions about the $5,000 he gave to Vitter in 2010. Boehner was one of only three House Republicans to donate to Vitter's campaign.

In July 2007 Vitter admitted, first in a letter and then at a press conference, to have used Palfrey's prostitution service when he served in the House of Representatives from 1999 to 2004. Vitter was also revealed to have scheduled prostitution appointments during House roll call votes. Vitter had previously denied having an affair and paying for prostitutes, citing family problems for his withdrawal from a bid for the Louisiana governorship in 2002.

After the Palfrey revelations, a New Orleans-based prostitute, Wendy Yow, came forward and revealed that Vitter had regularly used her services after he was elected to the House in a special election to replace Rep. Bob Livingston, who retired to become a lobbyist after revealing his own affair.

*snip*

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) stated, "I don't condone his activity. And I think he should resign." Cornyn echoed Cantor's call on Wednesday.
Other lawmakers who may be thinking twice before calling for Weiner's resignation include Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), John Barrasso (R-Wyo), John McCain (R-Ariz.), John Thune (R-S.D.), Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Mike Enzi (R-Wyo), Mike Johanns (R-Neb.), Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), Richard Burr (R-N.C.), Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.), Thad Cochran (R-Miss.), Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), Dave Camp (R-Mich.), Louie Gohmert (R-Texas). Each contributed to Vitter's reelection campaign.

And from Alternet there is this...

There's not enough Boudreaux Buttpaste in the world that can wipe-clean a career like Vitter's-- now better known as The Guy Who Frequents Prostitutes and Asks To Wear a Diaper.
Apparently the whores of New Orleans call him "Vitter the Shitter." And don't even ask about his love child -- who, one can only hope, is kept well-stocked with Pampers.

*snip*

Vitter refuses to resign, of course. He and his wife took the neo-Antoinette position at their recent press conference: "Let them eat shit."
David said God, and His Wife Wendy, were willing to move on -- and so should everyone else. After all, he still has plenty of gay marriages to wreck, and black voters to disenfranchise! Let the man get on with his work!
But his better half upstaged him. Wendy showed up for the cameras in a low-cut leopard print dress and giant hoop earrings, to say she's forgiven Davy for everything and it was time for the press to leave their family alone.

*snip*

In 2000, Vitter was included in a Newhouse News Service story about the strain of congressional careers on families.
His wife, Wendy, was asked by the Newhouse reporter: If her husband were as unfaithful as Livingston or former President Bill Clinton, would she be as forgiving as Hillary Rodham Clinton?
"I'm a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary," Wendy Vitter told Newhouse News. "If he does something like that, I'm walking away with one thing, and it's not alimony, trust me."
"I think fear is a very good motivating factor in a marriage," she added. "Don't put fear down.

So, from what Mrs.Vitter implied, would that mean that Sen. Vitter is now a eunich?

Anyway.....There you have it. The Republicans have amnesia when it comes to their own tawdry indiscretions and lash out with their hypocritical morality when it suits their political interests. The Republican Party, with the help of the Media, are very good at keeping their sexual indiscretions in the closet yet are quick to "Cast Stones" when it suits their purpose.

The hypocrisy is maddening and yet the Democratic party seems intent to destroy one of it's own to appease the Breitbarts of the world!

As far as we know, what Anthony Weiner did was not illegal. They were "consenting" adults willing to pleasure themselves as millions do every day online. Was it smart of him to engage in this type of activity? He had to know that his scalp had a price attached to it. But at the end of the day I believe, as many others do, that the only person he had to answer to was his wife and that would be punishment enough for any man.

So I ask...."You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."

**Update**

Seems the enormous pressure bought to bear on Weiner finally took it's toll. He resigned today.

Lunatic Fringe

2011-04-21T15:13:00.006-05:00

The media love to paint "liberal" groups as aggressive and out of control at their rallies yet you never and I do mean NEVER, see what really happens at a "Tea-Bagger" rally.

Witness as so-called "patriots" spew their racist bullshit yet are not called on it by the "National Media"...

This is the reality on the ground.

These are the people that claim they are being targeted unfairly as "racist" and Unhinged" by the so-called left wing media and the Soros funded "Hit Squads" like Media Matters. Never mind that they are being organized and funded by some of the most powerful Right Wing front groups. The Koch brothers being the one that comes to mind but you can bet they are only the tip of the "Randian Iceberg!"

This so-called "patriot beast" has always had a racist tint to it. It was evident from the very beginning. So, no matter how much they bitch and moan that they ( the Tea Baggers) are being misunderstood and demeaned in the "Liberal Press" ( What a joke that one is ) the sad fact is that no amount of deodorant can sanitize the stench that emanates from this group of bigoted, homophobic and utterly stupid ( yes I called them stupid) people!

This so-called "Citizens Movement" has allowed some of the worst to come out of people. People who had kept their vile thoughts in check now find a ready audience for their hateful beliefs and they have a willing and complicit media more than willing to propagate their insanity!

These sad, deranged, sorry excuses for human beings are useful to the Powers that be. So long as the "Tea Baggers" are attacking their fellow citizens, they are not paying attention to what their "Corporate Masters" are doing to ensure that they, the ignorant, the racist, the utterly sheep like masses are happily being led to financial slaughter!!!

You hear slogans from "Tea Baggers" in "Medicare" funded wheel chairs, with "Medicare" funded oxygen bottles strapped to their "Medicare and SSI funded asses scream how they don't want the Democrats "Socializing their Medicare! Yet these folks are not intellectually competent enough to realize that Medicare IS SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE!!!!!

You hear white folk attack Brown folk for scrubbing toilets, washing dishes, cooking their food, cutting their lawns etc. etc.; yet these are the very folk that refused this type of work in the past because it did not pay a "living wage" and that the work was beneath them! They were okay with someone else shoveling their shit so long as those damn "Mexicans" knew their place!

You hear these "Tea-Bagger" rant and Rave about Obama not being legally fit to hold the Presidency because they claim he was not born in these United States! They claim he is some sort of "Manchurian candidate and therefore he must be removed! ( I personally didn't vote for Obama. Not for the reason I stated but because I did not believe he was capable. He had never shown any courage or conviction as a State Senator and I believed he was a tool for higher interests. Still do!)

What has happened to us as a people when we allow this type of insidious, utterly destructive meme go unchallenged by those we count on to counter this madness?

We as a Nation are in serious trouble if we allow the Homophobes, The Racist, The Misogynist, The utterly Corrupt and the Insane to pollute our political institutions and those we elect to represent "OUR" needs.

As it stands now, our government is run by those that I mentioned above and they are funded by the Corporations and their Wall Street" lap dogs to look after "their" interest. Not yours!

Until we as a Nation decide that we have had enough of the bullshit being force fed us. Until we a a people decide that we are tired of watching all our jobs disappear to China while the Corporate overlords rake in BILLIONS in profits. Until we decide that we as a people need to be able to work to "Afford" those cheaply made products. until we DEMAND that the Tax loop holes and the obscene salaries these Corporations dole out to their CEO's and Wall Street. Until we as a people decide to FIRE each and every politician who sells his or her ass to the highest Corporate bidder. Until we as a people decide to reign in the Monster that is the Military Budget. until we as a people wake the fuck up............

We are at the mercy of "Tea Baggers" and the pimps that own them!

Update:

I found this on Crooks and Liars:

Via Dave Weigel:

On Monday, a South Carolina Democratic consultant named Tyler Jones took a camera down to the Columbia, S.C. Tea Party rally that Michele Bachmann and Nikki Haley both spoke at.

"I interviewed around 25 people total and probably 75 percent of them said they were supporting Donald Trump," says Jones, "and just about every single person is a birther. I took two hours of footage and chopped it down to six minutes of mind-blowing stuff."

There is nothing I could possibly say that isn't said for me with this video. Yikes. That is all.

The ignorance of these people is astounding!!!!!! Here you have older folk that are most likely receiving SSI, Medicare, Medicaid and or Social Security paymenst and they all are willing to abolish it for ideology!
Did you get a load of that older **ehem** Gentleman at the 1:41 marker? He says we spend too much for education in tis country!!1 Looks like he missed out on some of that scratch eh?

I'm sure "Fixed News" is proud of what they have done. They've convinced a whole generation to cut their own financial throats!!!!!!

Bastards!!!!

Permit me to play this in honor of the Tea Bag Nation:

Lunatic Fringe.....We all know your out there!

The Rebellion

2011-04-12T18:38:00.002-05:00

Joseph Cannon has a brilliant idea.....

Cannonfire:

"Okay, new idea: Let's give our pro-Liberal, anti-Obama movement a name which sums up our defiant attitude, a name which tells the world that we don't like what the Democrats have turned into, a name which signals a break with the bipartisan neo-liberal orthodoxy which has ruined this country since Ronald Reagan.

Let's call our rebellion -- THE REBELLION.

Update: As you know, I can never resist slapping together a graphic for these occasions. (Click on the picture for a larger version.) How do you like it?

There's a deeper purpose to this imagery than you may at first notice. The man pictured here is Alexander Hamilton, and he was chosen for a reason.

Y'see, the libertarians have adapted Thomas Jefferson as "their" founding father. (See here for example.) He favored a weak federal government, states' rights, and unregulated enterprise.

I think that we should look toward Alexander Hamilton. Jefferson may have written the Declaration of Independence, but Hamilton was the man who pretty much invented Constitutional democracy. He makes a potent symbol for our cause for at least three reasons:"

Take a walk over to his "place" to read the rest. The link is above.

I am sure brother Cannon wouldn't mind my cutting and pasting from his blog. After all, we are trying to start a movement.

I Don't Want To Sail On This Ship Of Fools!!!!

2011-04-11T18:09:00.005-05:00

I was going to post something about Obama and his enablers but decided against it.

So, I'll just post this.......

We're setting sail
To the place on the map from which no one has ever returned
Torn by the promise of the joker and the fool
By the light of the crosses that bur-urn
Torn by the promise of the women and the lace
And the gold and the cotton and pearls
It's the place where they keep all the darkness you meet
You sail away from the light of the world

Listen baby - you will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
You will pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

Save me, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
Oh-oh-oh, save me, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no
I want to run and hide
Right now - ri-ight now-ow yeah-eah-eah

Avarice and greed are gonna drive you over the endless sea
They will leave you-ou drifting in the shallows
Drowning in the oceans of history-y-y-y
Travellin' the world, you're in search of no good
But I'm sure you're philosophic like I knew you would
Using all the good people for your gallant slaves
As your little boat struggles through the the warning waves

But you will pay, you will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow
You gonna pay tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-wow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow

Save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no
Oh-oh-oh, save me-ee, save me from tomor-orrow
I don't want to sail with this ship of foo-ools, no no no no

Where's it comin' fro-om or where's it goin' to?
It's just a - it's just a ship of foo-oo-oo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ools

Yeah, oh Lord

Couldn't have said it better myself. Sums up what many of us are feeling!

The Science Con

2011-03-22T16:42:00.003-05:00

I had wanted to write a little something about Jay Lehr and the Media's fascination as of late with this disgraced Con man but Joesph Cannon beat me to it. Besides, Cannon is a much better writer than I so I'll just direct you to his site and let the "man" school ya!

Don't know who Jay Lehr is?

Well than, you have not been watching Corporate news lately and if you have then you already know how how desperately the "Masters of the Universe" are trying to convince you that there is no danger of Radiation sickness or Radiation poisoning or that you need not worry about the three eyeballs growing out of the side of your grandchild's cabezza from the damaged Nuclear plants spewing toxic doo doo in Japan! No. According to the Media and their paid trolls, it's all rainbows and tulips over there!

Cannon has a few good post' up directed at the Media's bait and switch and Jay Lehr in particular:

"Lehr went to prison for committing fraud against the government. He was also kicked out of his professional organization."

Watch:

As I said above, Joseph Cannon is a far better writer than I so if you want to know more about who this clown Jay Lehr is, take a stroll over to his site....."Cannonfire." It's worth the trip!

By the way...Wasn't it "Nuclear Fallout" that created this guy.......................?

I bet Jay Lehr and his "Science Mercenaries" would claim the "big guy" isn't a threat to Tokyo either!

Batshit!!!!

2011-01-29T12:54:00.004-06:00

First let me start off by saying I know little of Ayn Rand and that which I do know turns my stomach!
The woman seems to have lead a privileged life in Russia and once here could not suffer her Bourgeois eyes to see that not everyone was born wearing silk undies or had that silver spoon shoved up their lily white butt cheeks!

Anyway,

I don't want to waste too many brain cells on this woman but suffice to say,there seems to be a a sort of "revival" of this hypocrites books, thoughts and or ideology with the "Baggers" and the Batshit crazy wingers as of late.

You have people such as that morally stunted, intellectual midget Glen Beck ( my apologies to those of the "Little" persuasion. ) and those of his same thinking ( or lack thereof ) colleagues such as Sean insHannity, Rush Limpballs, etc etc etc. (I wont name them all. We know the cast of characters and besides, having to spend more than two thoughts on these Batshit Insane mofo's really makes my uneducated, dark skinned head hurt!) are all goo goo gaga over this woman!

Why?

For the sake of this post, I wont post everything I despise about the Hypocrite Rand but I will post this link if you care to muddle your mind with everything Rand.

What I do want to post is this little bit of uh huh I found over on Alternet.....

Ayn Rand believed....

Her books provided wide-ranging parables of "parasites," "looters" and "moochers" using the levers of government to steal the fruits of her heroes' labor. In the real world, however, Rand herself received Social Security payments and Medicare benefits under the name of Ann O'Connor (her husband was Frank O'Connor).

**snip**

“Morally and economically,” wrote Rand in a 1972 newsletter, “the welfare state creates an ever accelerating downward pull.”
Journalist Patia Stephens wrote of Rand:
[She] called altruism a “basic evil” and referred to those who perpetuate the system of taxation and redistribution as “looters” and “moochers.” She wrote in her book “The Virtue of Selfishness” that accepting any government controls is “delivering oneself into gradual enslavement.”
Rand also believed that the scientific consensus on the dangers of tobacco was a hoax. By 1974, the two-pack-a-day smoker, then 69, required surgery for lung cancer. And it was at that moment of vulnerability that she succumbed to the lure of collectivism.

**Snip**

And yet she did this...

“She was coming to a point in her life where she was going to receive the very thing she didn’t like, which was Medicare and Social Security,” Pryor told McConnell. “I remember telling her that this was going to be difficult. For me to do my job she had to recognize that there were exceptions to her theory. So that started our political discussions. From there on – with gusto – we argued all the time.
The initial argument was on greed,” Pryor continued. “She had to see that there was such a thing as greed in this world. Doctors could cost an awful lot more money than books earn, and she could be totally wiped out by medical bills if she didn’t watch it. Since she had worked her entire life, and had paid into Social Security, she had a right to it. She didn’t feel that an individual should take help.”

(emphasis mine)
Oh Hell No!!!

Here this pig of a human is railing against the poor, the weak and those that rely on Government to help put food on the table and make ends meet and so goes and collects the very same thing she is spewing spittle against?

Yes she did!

So, the next time you hear those idiots and moral degenerates over at "Fixed News" or any morally corrupt, Right wing, bat shit crazy Congressman/Senator or any so-called head of the "Tea Bagger" movement spout their bullshit on Corporate media, remember this....

Alternet:

She modeled her heroic characters on one of the most despicable sociopaths of her time. Ames’ conclusion is important for understanding today’s political economy. “Whenever you hear politicians or Tea Partiers dividing up the world between ‘producers’ and ‘collectivism,’” he wrote, “just know that those ideas and words more likely than not are derived from the deranged mind of a serial-killer groupie....And when you see them taking their razor blades to the last remaining programs protecting the middle class from total abject destitution—Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid—and bragging about how they are slashing these programs for ‘moral’ reasons, just remember Rand’s morality and who inspired her.”

(Emphasis mine)

'Nuff said!

I highly recommend you reading the entire article. Here's the link.

Chicago Mayoral Candidate and Controversial Preacher Clams: "Minority Contracts Should Only Go To Blacks!"

2010-12-17T12:28:00.001-06:00

There it is.

This kind of talk from someone running for office is nothing new to us here in Chicago. We have become desensitized to this kind of verbal diarrhea emanating from the mouths of those that seek to use race as a political weapon.

So, when the good Reverend Meeks opened his mouth and let fly his racist bullshit on Chicagoland radio, it came as no surprise.
Chicago SunTimes:

Mayoral challenger James Meeks scrambled Thursday to put out a political fire touched off by his suggestion that only African Americans should be eligible for city contracts set aside for minorities and women.

Meeks made the statement on Wednesday during an interview on WVON-AM (1690). It happened during a discussion of why African-American businesses got a 7 percent sliver of Chicago’s $1 billion spending pie through Aug. 31, down from 8 percent a year ago.

“The word ‘minority’ from our standpoint should mean African American. I don’t think women, Asians and Hispanics should be able to use that title,” he said. “That’s why our numbers cannot improve — because we use women, Asians and Hispanics who are not people of color, who are not people who have been discriminated against.”

("Not only is the man a racist...He's a Homophobe to boot!!!! ")

Rev. Meeks does not believe that Hispanics, Women or Asians qualify for "Minority" status. We do not have enough "color" to qualify ( In his estimation ) for these programs because as he put it, we as a people, are not "Dark" enough and therefore have not been discriminated against!!!

Here's a little background on the the good Rev....................

James T. Meeks (born 4 August 1956) is a Democratic member of the Illinois Senate, representing the 15th district since 2003. He is also an active Baptist minister in Chicago and chairs the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus.

(snip)
Meeks serves as the Executive Vice President of the National Rainbow-PUSH Coalition.

In 1998, Meeks led a movement to “dry up” Roseland Community by collecting votes to close 26 liquor stores. He has also created a mentoring program called “It Takes a Village ” which provides support and assistance to pregnant youth and young mothers.

Meeks is also concerned with issues of housing affordability. He sponsored a bill which would make permanent a 2003 Executive Order that established a task force to develop Annual Comprehensive Housing Plans to address critical housing issues. The bill focuses its attention on vulnerable groups, including those at risk of homelessness and low income people with disabilities.

Another bill Meeks has sponsored addresses law enforcement and racial profiling. The bill would allow police departments to apply for grants to purchase cameras for police cars. Meeks believes that cameras in police cars protects everyone involved in a traffic stop, arguing that it provides security for both the driver and the law enforcement officer, and that it may also help reduce instances of racial profiling.

Meeks is the Chairperson of the Housing and Community Affairs Committee and Vice Chairperson of the Commerce and Economic Development Committee. Additionally, he is a member of the Senate Commerce; Appropriations I; Education; Higher Education; and Senate Education Funding Reform Committees.

Meeks voted against the creation of civil unions in Illinois for same-sex couples in December 2010.^[1] In 2006, he called homosexuality an "evil sickness," and is is allied with Americans for Truth, an organization which the Southern Povert y Law Center labeled as a hate group earlier in 2010.^[2]

** emphasis are mine**

The video below is just a sampling of Rev. Meek's sermons...

This man was, at one time, a supporter of Obama and Obama used him to cut radio ads for him back in 2004 wen Obama was running for State Senate. You can listen to the ad here if you care to.

Now. I am in no way implying that Obama is in anyway responsible for what the Rev. Meeks allows to ooze out of his mouth. Obama did what he had to do as a parasite politician trying to survive in Chicago politics. Race is tossed around as weapon and it is used here to such an extent that it does not shock us when a so-called "Man of God" decides to take aim and blast this crap out of his/her mouth. As a matter of fact, it's come to be expected!

But, I find it curious that no-one will question Obama as to why he chose to associate himself with these men when he HAD to know what their views on race were. No one can tell me Obama did not know these men had and would use the race card and that their views on "Whitey" were well known to anyone willing to dig for it.

Anyway....This is not a post about the "great Pretender." This is a post on the Rev. Meeks and what I fear is going to be a long, nasty election to replace the king of Chicago...Richard M Daley.

As I said above....The Reverend Meek's views are well known here. Why anyone is surprised he said what he said is beyond me.

This is who the man is!!!
On a personal note:

Joseph Cannon's "Cannonfire" is back up and running!! Hoorah!!!!

It's good to have you back writing again Joe. You were sorely missed!

and by the way Joe...

Love the graphic!

Man Castrates Teenage Daughters 57 yr. Old Boyfriend

2010-12-14T10:17:00.003-06:00

Found on The Telegraph:

"I saw it as my duty as a father."

German man castrates teenage daughter's 57-year-old boyfriend

An enraged father who disapproved of his daughter's older boyfriend went to his home and castrated him with a bread knife

Helmut Seifert, 47, an ethnic German originally from Russia, was enraged when he heard his 17-year-old daughter was having a relationship with Phillip Genscher, 57.

He went to police in the town of Bielefeld where he lives but officers said they were powerless to intervene.

"The man then recruited two work colleagues at his factory and then went to the house of the victim," said police.

"The man was forced to remove his trousers and, fully conscious, he was castrated. The severed testicles were taken away by the perpetrator."

The man was close to bleeding to death but managed to call police. His life was saved but he remains a eunuch for life.

Seifert pleaded guilty and will be on trial for attempted murder next year. But he has remained silent on who his accomplices were.

He told police: "I received a phone call anonymously that my daughter was involved with a guy 40 years older than her. You said you couldn't stop him - so I did.

"I saw it as my duty as a father."

Yup. That's exactly what I would have done had I been in the same situation.

I know there are some of you out there that view this a barbaric and if you are one of those.....than you do not have children and if you do not have children and you feel sorry for the freak, creep, pedophile motherfucker that got his gogees chopped, than maybe you have some issues that you need help on?

And further more...........

If you do have some psychological imbalance and a tendency to feel sorry for this sick piece of shit, then, maybe......You NEED your balls chopped off!

I don't think I would have stopped there though. I think I would have made the asshole some testicle soup.

Just saying.

Don't Republicans and Tea Baggers Hate Unions?

2010-10-27T16:15:00.005-05:00

If that's the case (and in case you've lived in a cave for the past 30 years) then why are they so quick to call UNIONIZED Police to silence their opponents?

Just asking.....

(***Ouch..You could almost hear the splat when the..ahem..."Big Guy," decided to use his "Large girth" to splatter the guy!**)

Well, sorry to burst that bubble but we haven't been a "free People" for a long time!

Anyway....I realize tat the store owner has a right to refuse service to anyone they deem disruptive, but were these people, and the man being jacked by the police in question, really being disruptive? Or was this a preemptive strike to silence the man?

Either way, Cantor wasted no time using this to bash his opponent:

"This is a pattern with Rick Waugh of disruptive and frankly thuggish behavior," said Cantor spokesman Ray Allen, Jr. "And frankly, he needs to get control of his campaign." The Waugh campaign said it had nothing to do with the incident.

Yeah. Sure your right!

Typical Re-Thug-Nican. Call people out. Disrespect your opponent in public. Cry, bitch and wine that your opponent is dodging the issues and then refuse to debate him. Then when one of your opponents calls you out on your cowardice to debate, what do you do..................................?

Call the "Publicly funded, Gum-mint sanctioned police force!"

Are these not the very people and programs, not to mention...UNION member's... the Tea Baggers and re-Thugs are bitching about?

Funny how they love them some "Gummint"help when it suits them.

Hypocrites!!!

Rand Paul's "Taliban" Attack Woman: Where's The National Outrage?

2010-10-26T16:26:00.003-05:00

Rand Paul's "He-Men" take to stomping on women now?

As the video begins, you see Little Lord Rand emerge from his chariot. Then a group of "so-called men" decide that they need to take out their frustrations on a defenseless woman practicing her Constitutional right to free speech.

Watch as these so-called men rough this poor woman up then toss her to the ground. Then to make matters worse, another so-called man, decides he wants to stomp on her while she is on the ground:

I did a bit more digging and come up with this from NYDaily News:

A young woman thurst into the national spotlight after she was filmed getting her head stomped by a Rand Paul supporter before Monday's Senatorial debate in Kentucky is a Columbia University graduate who for five years called New York City home.

In an interview with the Daily News, Lauren Valle, a 23-year-old MoveOn.org Democrat Jack Conway. activist, recounted the harrowing experience as she tried to approach Paul, a Tea Party favorite, just before his final debate with

"They tried to grab me and chased me around Rand Paul's car," she said of the politician's supporters. "And once I'm in front of the car, they take me down…I remembered someone stomping my head in the ground."

Video of the incident shows Valle tripping after someone ripped a blond wig off her head. She is then wrestled to a curb by one man. After she is placed face down, another man stomps on her shoulder and head.

The men shown in the video have not been identified.

Valle said she instinctively got into the fetal position and covered her head with her hands.

"I think I saved myself from further injury," she said.

Valle said she wasn't wearing the wig to disguise herself, but that she simply enjoys wearing fake hair as artistic expression.

She said she had no interaction with Paul's supporters before the rally, and just wanted to get a photo with Paul holding a sign that said "employee of the month award."

The satirical prize was from Republicorp, a fake business MoveOn created to symbolize what the liberal group says is a cozy relationship between corporate American and the GOP.

Valle was hired by the liberal group for three weeks to work on their Republicorp program in Kentucky.

Before the melee, Alex Giblin, a 24-year-old volunteer with MoveOn, told the Daily News he heard one of Paul's supporters say"We might have to take someone down."

Valle was later taken to a hospital, where doctors told her she suffered from a concussion.

Police have said they are still trying to find the suspected assaulter, who has not yet been identified. Both the Paul and Conway campaigns have condemned the attack.

Valle has a permanent residence in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, and says she's a self-employed contractor who recently finished a project on solar installation. She attended Columbia University, graduating this year with a bachelor's degree in religion.
Valle lived in Hamilton Heights and Bushwick during her stint in New York.

Will she stay in Kentucky? Valle isn't quite sure. She said she's not angry with Paul supporters -- just disappointed.

"I'm just feeling sad not only for last night but for the level of division that exists in this country," she said. "It's a dark moment."

Yeah. Typical Re-Thug-nican piece's of shit!

Attack a woman but bypasses the men in the crowd. Real tough, brave men they must be.
I wonder what their wives ( if they in fact have any ) or their kids must be thinking of their "Brave, heroic fathers?

My guess is that they've seen this movie one time too many times. They have probably been on the receiving end of this themselves many times over. If these men had no problem attacking a woman in public, just imagine what terror they must inflict on the women in their lives when no one is watching and behind closed doors.

We know all to well what (**cough cough** ) "men" like this are capable of!!!!!!!!!

I'm wondering if any of the "Leaders" on the Right, Fox's Ins-Hannity, Beck or her highness Palin herself, condemned the men for their cowardly attack on this defenseless woman or what they plan on doing about it? I take it, (from the article at least, that Paul did condemn this act. **wink wink**yeah sure he did.) But did anyone turn the cowards in? Why has no one come forward and pointed this piece of shit out so he can be ridiculed for the low life, coward, woman beating piece of dog shit that he is?

Don't hold your breath folks. Wont happen.

Nope...No one on the right will come to this woman's defense. No one will come forward and express his shame for what he did. No one will turn that dirt bag in.

After all..............She was only a woman!

**My thanks to La-t-Da and the Widdershins for first bringing this to my attention!**

Adding Insult To Injury

2010-10-18T11:31:00.006-05:00

"The point is that you can never be too greedy." --Donald Trump

Found on Huffington Post..............

There really isn't a need for me to comment on what you've just seen. The video speaks for itself. So for me to add to it would do it injustice. Besides, I don't know enough about the subject to offer my opinion.

But that being said. I will add this small comment as my way of ranting at what i just watched:

"When are YOU going to wake the F@#$ up and demand that this stop? I'm asking Republican, Democrat, Independent, Tea-Whatever or Martian!

You ARE only sheep in a Corporately owned pasture and the Wolves are the Wardens!

Wake Up!

( And another thing:
Every time I post this video, the "Talking Meat Monkeys seem to come out of the woodwork and claim that I am inciting violence.
My point is that enslaved people are desperate people and we all know what desperate people are capable of doing.
So, spare me your Tea-Bagging, Rethugnican, Ann Rand bullshit!)

Are Glen Beck's Rants Inciting The Sheep To Violence?

2010-10-11T13:07:00.003-05:00

"I would have never started watching Fox News if it wasn't for the fact that Beck was on there. And it was the things that he did, it was the things he exposed that blew my mind." - Byron Williams

If you have to think about that then you haven't been paying attention to the news lately.

Glen Beck's whole shtick is incitement!

He thrives on it.

He breathes incitement.

It's the peanut butter to his jelly!

The man has built a career on stoking the sheep's emotions so it comes as no surprise that the same sheep he passionately incites with his bullshit, take up arms and attempt nefarious deeds all in the name of "Beckism!"

Case in point....................

( First reported on by Media Matters and also posted on Crooks and Liars )

Media Matters:

Byron Williams, a 45-year-old ex-felon, exploded onto the national stage in the early morning hours of July 18.

According to a police investigation, Williams opened fire on California Highway Patrol officers who had stopped him on an Oakland freeway for driving erratically. For 12 frantic minutes, Williams traded shots with the police, employing three firearms and a small arsenal of ammunition, including armor-piercing rounds fired from a .308-caliber rifle.
When the smoke cleared, Williams surrendered; the ballistic body armor he was wearing had saved his life. Miraculously, only two of the 10 CHP officers involved in the shootout were injured

In an affidavit, an Oakland police investigator reported that during an interview at the hospital, Williams "stated that his intention was to start a revolution by traveling to San Francisco and killing people of importance at the Tides Foundation and the ACLU."

And who does this man credit for his "going off?"

Why it's......................GLEN BECK!

Media Matters:

In a 2009 report, the Southern Poverty Law Center found that the anti-government militia movement -- which had risen to prominence during the Clinton administration and faded away during the Bush years -- has returned. According to the SPLC, the anti-government resurgence has been buttressed by paranoid rhetoric from public officials like Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and media figures like Fox News' Glenn Beck.

Just last month, Gregory Giusti pleaded guilty to repeatedly threatening House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- including threatening to destroy her California home -- because he was "upset with her passing the health care law." His mother told a local news station that he "frequently gets in with a group of people that have really radical ideas," adding, "I'd say Fox News or all of those that are really radical, and he -- that's where he comes from."

Now, guess who this idiot was listening is claiming he was taking his matching orders from?

Glen Beck!

After the 2008 election, Fox News personalities filled the airwaves with increasingly violent rhetoric and apocalyptic language. On his Fox News show, Beck talked about "put[ting] poison" in Pelosi's wine.

Observers of this most recent act were mystified by one of Byron Williams' reported targets: the Tides Foundation, a low-profile charitable organization known for funding environmentalists, community groups, and other organizations.

Beck, it turned out, had attacked Tides 29 times on his Fox News show in the year-and-a-half leading up to the shooting.

Now, in exclusive interviews and written correspondence with journalist John Hamilton, Williams speaks for himself. He asks Hamilton to be his "media advocate" and repeatedly instructs him to watch specific broadcasts of Beck's show for information on the conspiracy theory that drove him over the edge: an intricate plot involving Barack Obama, philanthropist George Soros, a Brazilian oil company, and the BP disaster.

Williams also points to other media figures -- right-wing propagandist David Horowitz, and Internet conspiracist and repeated Fox News guest Alex Jones -- as key sources of information to inspire his "revolution."
In a separate exchange with Examiner.com's Ed Walsh, Williams sought to defend Beck from "Obama and the liberals," whom he said are afraid of Beck "because he often exposes things that are simply forbidden in news." Williams said that Beck advocates non-violence and that he had already researched the conspiracy theories that informed his alleged plot -- before seeing them "confirm[ed]" on Beck's show.

Similarly, Williams tells Hamilton that "Beck would never say anything about a conspiracy, would never advocate violence. He'll never do anything ... of this nature. But he'll give you every ounce of evidence that you could possibly need."

From the Santa Rita Jail, Williams opens up about the websites he frequented, the broadcasts he listened to, and the "evidence" of "sabotage" he "uncovered" that eventually led him to target Tides.

He asks Hamilton to help "make people realize that corrupt killers are in power, and want re-election!" Williams wants to make sure that the ideas that inspired him aren't "buried" from the public.

"I collect information on corruption," Williams says, "I've been at it for some time."

Beck, in particular, he says, is "like a schoolteacher on TV." Williams tells Hamilton, "You need to go back to June -- June of this year, 2010 -- and look at all his programs from June, and you'll see he's been breaking open some of the most hideous corruption."

Now it's true that Beck has never "directly" called for his sheep to go out and "hunt" them some "Progressive Wabbit" but if you've spent any time listening to the moron that is Beck, you get the message loud and clear!

I fear that we may see many more "Rethugnican Sheep" attempt to put their master's words to deeds and if something is not done to educate the public to the hypocrisy that is "fear mongering, hate speech peddling morons," then we can brace ourselves for many more instances of these so-called "lone wolves" and their penchant for letting bullets fly!

People that defend Beck claim he is just practicing his Constitutional right to free speech. Really?
When does his responsibility for what he says and what his sheep do with what he says finally become dangerous to the community at large?

The man has been given a platform to spew his venom on a National stage and far be it for me to try to silence that moron's right but with that platform comes great responsibility and Beck should be held responsible for the actions his "sheep" take when listening to his nefarious rhetoric!

I believe, as do many many more like me, that it is time Glen Beck and the Party that Bred him to take responsibility for what comes out of their hate filled mouths before something ( Gods forbid ) or someone takes this rhetoric to the only conclusion hate speech leads to...........VIOLENCE!

Bp's New Talking Points?

2010-08-24T14:27:00.002-05:00

Yeah this funny, but want to bet how long it will take before BP and it's Washington lap dogs start trying to convince you that the oil spilled into the Gulf is actually.......Good for you?

Don't believe they can convince the American people that this oil will actually be good for their health? Heck, they are already trying to convince you that the millions of barrels of that crude somehow, and dare I say Magically, Just up and disappeared?

Keep watching. It's only a matter of time before you are told that this oil spill......NEVER HAPPENED!

Dems Considering Cutting Food Stamps To Fund MeeChelle's Pet Project

2010-08-15T17:30:00.002-05:00

And here I thought Democrats were the Party that gave a damn about those less fortunate ( which in today's society means just about everyone ) among us.

The Hill is reporting:

Dems may use food stamp money to pay for Michelle Obama's nutrition initiative

Democrats who reluctantly slashed a food stamp program to fund a state aid bill may have to do so again to pay for a top priority of first lady Michelle Obama.
The House will soon consider an $8 billion child nutrition bill that’s at the center of the first lady’s “Let’s Move” initiative. Before leaving for the summer recess, the Senate passed a smaller version of the legislation that is paid for by trimming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps.
The proposed cuts would come on top of a 13.6 percent food stamp reduction in the $26 billion Medicaid and education state funding bill that President Obama signed this week.
Food stamps have made multiple appearances on the fiscal chopping block because Democrats have few other places to turn to offset the cost of legislation.
Party leaders raided the budget to find off-setting tax increases and spending cuts to pay for their top legislative priorities, including the roughly $900 billion healthcare law. Congressional pay-as-you-go rules require lawmakers to offset all non-emergency spending.
Democrats have turned to the food stamp program because funding increases enacted in the stimulus package last year were already scheduled to phase out over time. The changes proposed in the state aid and nutrition bills would simply cut off that increase early, in March 2014. Because the cuts would not take effect for more than three years, Democratic leaders have voiced the hope that they will be able to stop them in future legislation.

And these people are claiming to be Democrats?

It appears that there is "some" resistance to this but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the spineless to actually stand up to O'Blah Blah or his wife....Mee-Chelle:

But House liberals are balking now, saying that while they swallowed the food stamp cuts to pay for urgent funding for Medicaid and teachers, they will not vote for more cuts in the child nutrition bill. In a letter sent this week to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), 106 House Democrats urged the speaker to take the House version of the child nutrition bill, which does not slash food stamps, rather than the Senate version.
“This is one of the more egregious cases of robbing Peter to pay Paul, and is a vote we do not take lightly,” the lawmakers, led by Reps. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) and Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) said of their vote on the state aid bill

Snip....

“It’s very sad. I think it’s just illustrating what dire straits our federal government budget is in,” said Sheila Zedlewski, director of the Urban Institute’s Income and Benefits Center. “It’s unprecedented to raid one safety net program to feed another.”

So let me get this straight...

Mrs. Obama is more concerned about children eating their "veggies" than, lets say, them eating anything at all? Because from where I sit, if you cut funding in the Food Stamp program, there wont be much money to buy anything to eat much less worrying about eating their Arugula!!!!!

I don't know why this surprises me. Michelle Obama was known for her work helping a certain Chicago University turn it's back on the poor patients seeking medical attention at it's emergency room!

It used to be that the Democratic Party cared about the poor. If you didn't know by now this should tell you all you need to know about today;s so-called democratic Party!

Now go eat your veggies!

Update: Pop Goes The Weasel.

2010-08-13T13:21:00.003-05:00

If you read the story I posted last night you will see that there are some fanatical, rabid, repulsive, racist, no good, slimy Wing Nut, Batshit crazy populating today's modern GOP.

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R.) Texas is the poster boy for "Xenophobic Right's Jihad" against people of color.

I wont bother you with links pointing to what this asshole is spewing but I will show you what the face of today's GOP looks like and it's not pretty!

Again....Notice how "shit for brains" refuses to answer Cooper when he is asked "Where's the proof?" This is a common tactic they ( Democrats use it also but not to such effect ) use to deflect attention away from their Batshittery and onto the interviewer. He who screams the loudest usually wins in these situations. I am sorry to say it has worked fine for them until now. finally someone calls this Wingnut racist out and exposes him for what he is..."Full Of Shit!!!"

I gotta hand it to Cooper. Although I am no fan of his, he did go after this Loon and showed the world what the true face of today's GOP really looks like behind all that pasty makeup.

These people have gone off the freaking deep end. Instead of trying to fix the many problems we have with our immigration policy, we get fear tactics, racism, and utter bullshit from the Repulsive right and their Xenophobic mouth pieces.

As I said in the piece below, We are now at a point tipping point in this country where things can and in some instances are, getting violent and many people are now in fear of where this can lead.

What I can assure you is that if this is not ramped down, if this type of xenophobic, us against the dark unwashed masses, isn't starved of oxygen and the purveyors of this filth are not outed and shamed for their bigotry, then I fear we are heading into an era the likes we have not seen since the sixties. And make no mistake, there are elements both pro and con that will are itching for a fight!

This madness has got top stop!

By the way...Where is Mr. Hope and Change while all this is going on?

As I said above......POP GOES THE WEASEL!!!!!

GOP Batshittery Ramped Up A Notch

2010-08-12T15:07:00.006-05:00

We have been treated to a steady stream of verbal diarrhea emanating from the mouths ofthe GOP lately.

Yeah yeah, I know...."What else is new?

But this latest attempt at pandering to the "Racist" element in our society is not only upsetting to witness, it is very very dangerous if left unchecked and unchallenged!

The latest rally cry to the "Batshit Clown Posse" (Today's GOP )

is that terrorist are coming to this country with their women so that said women can have their babies, at tax payer expense, then they go home and indoctrinate this baby in the finer ways of blowing shit up!

I had thought I had heard all there was to hear from the "Repulsive Right and their Lunatic lap dogs." I had wondered just how far and to what lengths these sorry ass excuses for human beings would go to pander to that element in our society that feels that those of color and those less fortunate then themselves are what ails this country.

I was wrong. Boy was I wrong in thinking I heard it all.

I found this over at Crooks and Liars . As I listened to this "wingnut" spew her racist venom on CNN (and let's call it what it really is folks...RACISM! Racism to the rotten core. ) I found myself wondering. "Just how far the xenophobic rabbit hole these people were prepared to go."

Well. it seems there is no length of depravity that these people will not stoop to

wards to gin up some votes.

Watch:

This is the sad state we now find ourselves in this county.

Here is the latest person to add her voice to the " Grand Order of Pandering Republican Racist Spewing Hatred and Xenophobic Batshittery !" Let me introduce you to Debbie Riddle (R) Texas State Representative. And let me assure you. After watching her performance of CNN, there is no doubt in my mind this whack job believes this shit she is saying. She has a bright future within the "Wingnut and Batshittery" department of the GOP.

Here's a bit of the exchange she had with CNN's Anderson Cooper:

Rep. Riddle insisted that the conspiracy theory put out there by Rep. Gohmert is a real threat and claimed as Gohmert did that her sources were "ex-FBI agents". When questioned for any proof of her claims, Rep. Riddle didn't take to kindly to Cooper's tepid questioning.
COOPER:
Representative Riddle, you told my producer that pregnant women are coming here as tourists, having babies, and then going back home -- quote -- "with the nefarious purpose of turning them into little terrorists, who will then come back to the U.S. and do us harm." You said it's part of an organized terrorist element and could cost us lives.
Where did you hear that?
DEBBIE RIDDLE (R), TEXAS STATE REPRESENTATIVE: That is information that is coming to my office from former FBI officials.
COOPER: What former FBI officials -- I mean, what evidence is there of some sort of long-term plot to have American babies born here and then become terrorists -- raised as terrorists overseas and then come back here?
RIDDLE: Well, at this point, I don't have the hard evidence right here in front of me. However, this is something that is being talked about by various members of Congress. This is being looked into. This is an issue with not only folks coming across our southern border, with what is called anchor babies, and coming over for the entitlement programs and for that sort of thing, but I think that this is a lot more sinister issue. All of these issues, we need to look at, because this is a critical, critical issue for all of the American --American public.
COOPER: But you have no actual evidence?
RIDDLE: Other than that coming from former FBI folks.
COOPER: Can you tell us who these former FBI folks are, and what evidence they have or what evidence they have shown you?
RIDDLE: At this point, I'm not going to reveal that.
COOPER: I mean, if this is a real threat to the security of the United States, why wouldn't current FBI people be worried about it as well? I mean, why wouldn't this actually be...
RIDDLE: You know what? That's a really good question,because right now we have serious current threat that the government seems to be ignoring,and ignoring on our southern border. Quite honestly...
(CROSSTALK)
COOPER: But -- but they haven't told you any actual evidence, right? So, some former FBI -- you say some former FBI agents have talked to your office. Have they given your office actual facts or proof?
RIDDLE: That information, we are still gathering.
But the point that I think you are trying to make is about folks coming over here, having their babies when they are not here legally, or they might have overstayed their visa, whether they are coming from south of the border or whether they're coming from Middle Eastern countries. We must protect and make sure the safety and security of the people of Texas and the folks of this country is secure. That's the number-one job of every elected official. And, quite frankly, it is altogether possible to make a dirty bomb, stick it in a suitcase, walk it across our southern border, and take it to downtown Houston or any other city, and blow it up, and kill a million or more folks.Yet, why isn't the government taking that seriously? So, you're questioning me on details of this. And that's -- those -- they're fair questions. And we can deal with that now or we can deal with it at a later time. But that issue with dirty bombs that can be walked across our porous border that our president refuses to protect and secure...
COOPER: OK.
RIDDLE: ... could -- could endanger people today.
COOPER: Right. Well, I mean, border security is certainly.
..
RIDDLE: That's the question.
COOPER: Border security is certainly an issue, and it's a good topic. It's not the topic, though -- I mean, you have made statements about these basically terror babies that are being raised overseas to be brought back here. I'm just asking for proof.
You say you're still gathering it from unnamed former FBI people.
RIDDLE: Well, actually, I -- when your folks called me in the preliminary, that was part of the conversation. They did not tell me that you were going to grill me for this specific information that I was not ready to give to you tonight. They did not tell me that, sir.
COOPER: OK. OK.
Well, if you do have follow-up information, we would love to get it.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
COOPER: And we will
continue to follow up with her office

Notice how, when pressed for proof of what this proud daughter of Texas is spewing, she gives the generic...Well , at this point. I don't have the hard evidence right here in front of me." Or the ever convenient, "At this point I'm not going to reveal that."

Really?

That's because your full of shit and you don't have a shred of proof to back up the crap your spewing!

On a side note.

Is it me or does she not look as if she could use a little more "Fiber" in her diet? Or maybe even one of those "Colon cleanses," Industrial strength. She just appears a tad bit wound too tight or Constipated. But then again, every single GOP'er I've ever watched seems to be a bit wound too tight. That is unless they are rubbing toes in a bathroom stall, Texting little boys, chasing prostitutes, or just plain old getting caught dipping where they shouldn't have been.

Anyway.....

When is someone finally going to call thee people out on their nonsense?

This is dangerous if left unchallenged and the more these people are allowed to spew this racist nonsense through the media the more they will find a willing audience that is receptive to this bullshit!

That is the sad state we find our selves in. Our country has become an Us against Them camp and when that happens, and all the names and conspiracy theories have run their course, the next step always leads to violence against those that cannot defends themselves. The only problem I see with that is that this time, there will be a push back and things could get very very ugly if not brought down a notch.

Looks like this is shaping up to be one hell of an election cycle. Hold on to those tin hats folks, it's going to get ugly!!!!!!

If you'd like to read the rest of this story, you can go HERE.

As the Great rock poet's Pink Floyd once said.....

"Bus stop rat bag, ha ha, charade you are
You fucked up old hag, ha ha, charade you are
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hat pin
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry."

Yeah...Today's GOP.... An odd collecting of f@#*ed up Pigs each and every one of them!

Ha Ha Charade you are!

Enjoy the Floyd!

Saint Sarah, Her Pink Elephants and The Jesus Brigade

2010-07-08T12:39:00.008-05:00

I have been over due for a rant for some time now, so if you'll indulge me........Here I go!

"St. Sarah The Despicable" is now threatening us all with an "Army of Pink Elephants!"

( I feel like showering after watching that shit!)

First they called themselves...."Tea Baggers!" For those of you who have been living under a rock these past, say 40 years or so, this is what a "Tea Bagger" is....

Wikipedia:

"To tea bag is a slang term for the act of a man placing his scrotum in the mouth of a sexual partner. The practice resembles dipping a tea bag into a cup of tea when it is done in a repeated in-and-out motion. As a form of non-penetrative sex, it can be done for its own enjoyment or as foreplay before other activities, such as oral sex."

( RD: By the way. If you click on the link above, there is a pretty good "Illustration" for those "Tea Baggers" who still don't understand why they are the butt ( Pun intended) of many a joke.)

Now, apparently Tea Bagger's answer to "Mother Teresa" has her an army of "Pink Elephants!"

Whoa!

Now for those of you who have been crawling under those stones I alluded to above, this is what is meant when one references......"Pink Elephants!"

Wikipedia:

"Seeing pink elephants" is a euphemism for drunken hallucination, caused by alcoholic hallucinosis or delirium tremens. (Emphasis mine)The first recorded use of the term is by Jack London in 1913, who describes one sort of alcoholic in the autobiographical John Barleycorn as "the man whom we all know, stupid, unimaginative, whose brain is bitten numbly by numb maggots; who walks generously with wide-spread, tentative legs, falls frequently in the gutter, and who sees, in the extremity of his ecstasy, blue mice and pink elephants.
( me again...does that sound a tad bit like a modern Republican, Tea Bagger to you? Thought so....carry on)
He is the type that gives rise to the jokes in the funny papers."^[1] London may have derived his metaphor from the 1890s saying "being followed by pink giraffes".^[2]

In Action Comics #7 (December 1938), in a story in which Superman lifts an elephant over his head while performing at the circus, a drunk in the crowd exclaims, "I don't mind seeing pink elephants, but (-hic-) this is too much!"^[3]

A reference to pink elephants occurs in the 1941 Disney animated film Dumbo. Dumbo, having taken a drink of water from a bucket spiked with champagne, begins to hallucinate singing and dancing "Pink Elephants on Parade".

In chapter 18 of Raymond Chandler's 1943 novel The Lady in the Lake, a character refers to a doctor "who ran around all night with a case of loaded hypodermic needles, keeping the fast set from having pink elephants for breakfast."

The association between pink elephants and alcohol is reflected in the name of various alcoholic drinks. The "Pink Elephant" cocktail, made with vodka, grenadine, galliano and orange juice,^[4]^[5] is referenced in the chorus of the Madonna song 'Dear Jessie', which starts with the phrase "Pink elephants and lemonade". The Strong Bad Email episode nightlife features the fictitious "Pink Elephant Pants" drink.^[6] The Huyghe Brewery in Melle, Belgium features a pink elephant on the label of its Delirium Tremens beer and as a mouse cursor on its website.^[7]

Pink elephants do exist: Albino elephants can be pink.^[8]

2008 Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has used the phrase "pink elephants" to refer to anti-abortion Republican women such as herself and Carly Fiorina, who is a candidate for the 2010 Republican nomination for the California Senate seat currently held by Barbara Boxer. ^[9]

Seems to me Freud would have had a field day analyzing Saint Sarah and her Army of Radical Rethugnican, Ghost whispering ( Those that claim Jesus as their PERSONAL friend and Savior) Bible thumping, Tea Bagging Buffoons!

Saint Sarah of the Despicable Palin is the gift that keeps on giving!

By the way since I am on the subject of myths and Ghost Whisperers.......

Have you ever encountered someone, a bit dirty, smelling like piss and needing a bath badly having a conversation with himself/herself ( If you live in a big city as I do, you see these people on every street corner.) and that same person claims that he/she is speaking to a GOD?

Why is it that we encounter someone like that we tend to recoil in horror as our senses are bombarded by the sight and smell of the offending person and justify our disgust by calling that person crazy and as a society insist that that person be taken away and medicated.
Not only to benefit him/herself but to protect society (so we claim ) But also to remove that offensive animal from our sight as to not remind us of how fragile our minds truly are.

Yet..... we calmly accept that slick haired preacher on TV ( you know the one. The guy with the southern drawl, The wife wife too much mascara on and those hideous eyelashes, The guy living in a muti-million dollar mansion, who hates anything or anyone gay yet has a gay lover as a masseuse) claim that GOD told HIM that if YOU do not send HIM ( The Preacher ) 10 million dollars by midnight tomorrow, GOD will kill HIM in front of a nationally televised audience and each and every one of YOU will be held responsible and will NOT got to the promised land of milk and honey!

Here's just one example of the many rat fucks out there ( and we all know who you are ) claiming a personal relationship with someone who has been dead for over 2 thousand years!!!!!!!

There's an awful lot of money in the dead messiah racket!

We calmly accept that these people, with their globs of mascara and three thousand dollar suit's can just con a shit load of sheeple out of their life savings all in the name of a so-called GOD and no one bats an eye?

Sorry, but if that's what it means to have religion, I want no part of the hypocrisy.

I have a problem with those that come knocking at my door to "Witness" to me about the supposed glory of their so-called compassionate God yet when I ask them why they wont help those that are less fortunate among us, they just stare at me as if I've asked them to swallow dog shit!

Yes, they claim to give to charities but it all comes with a catch. "Embrace the Jesus or starve Motherfucker!"

Which brings me to Saint Sarah and her "Christian" cohorts.

These people are dangerous because they believe that a ghost speaks to them and it is that belief that can, more often than not, lead people to commit some of the vilest act against one another.

Just look at what history has to tell us about religion. The Popes were and still are, some of the RICHEST MEN on the planet. Televangelist whores are among some of the richest in the United States. Our politicians take their marching orders from some of these "Jesus peddlers" and their rabid followers are used as the shock troops to silence any opposition.

Now, I am not condemning each and every person of faith. I am sure there are a handful who live by the book they preach out of but I haven't found one yet.

So whenever someone comes to me offering to "Save" me in the name of Jesus, I'll continue to insist that the only one I need "Saving" from are the idiots insisting I fork over what little money ( and my immortal soul ) I do have because the voices in "their" heads tell me so!

I'd rather give it to someone society condemns as crazy than give it to someone who hears the same voices and believes in the same myth and yet, society would deem me crazy if I were to question their belief in those voices.

No wonder we are so fucked up!

White People For Rent In China

2010-06-30T17:57:00.002-05:00

Now I've heard everything:

Huffington Post:

White People For Rent In China

To some, it's known as "White Guy Window Dressing." Others call it "The Token White Guy Gig" or even a "Face Job."

These are terms used to describe a recently established practice employed by Chinese firms, who are willing to pay high prices for fair-skinned expatriates to act as faux employees and white-collar business partners -- all in an effort to impress other area businesses.

According to a blitz of news reports, the practice works as a complex, if bogus, promotional tool. To the Chinese public, the number of foreigners a company has is believed to have a direct correlation to its level of prestige, money and authority -- which, in turn, increases their chances of securing additional business. In an increasingly globalized Chinese workforce, an office's "diversity," real or not, makes it seem more international.

The practice, sources say, is rooted in the Chinese concept of "face," or the positive public expression of one's identity. As such, the "Token White Guy Gigs" are usually secured by Caucasian expats, including actors and English teachers, all hungry for work. Once "hired," many of the expats say they aren't given much instruction other than to sit and appear as though they understand as little Chinese as possible. Yet if the opportunity for a public event such as a party arose, they were given the red-carpet treatment, including cocktails
and police escorts.

While it may sound like nice work if you can get it, most Chinese employment experts believe it will be little more than a passing fad.

I wonder if there is a market for a 6'1" Apache/ Mexican in China?

And The Oil Spilled On!

2010-06-27T08:28:00.004-05:00

(This is an older video of the oil spewing but from what I've seen to date. Nothing has changed other than the failed prophylactic that is supposedly capping this disaster!)

Think about this the next time you open your tap to quench your thirst.
Think about this the next time you order that clam chowder or sit down for a fish dinner.
Think about this next time you fill the tank in your car to drive a half mile for a can of tuna.

And...

By all means, think about this the next time you hear the Repugnican ( and yes...Dimocratic ) Oil Whores defend Big Oil!

And to add insult to injury...

Now there are dangerous levels of Toxic Gases being recorded inland:

We can put a man on the moon.
We can manufacture artificial hearts.
We can build bombs that can vaporize a fly on a Taliban's tea cup.

And yet....

We can not find a way to stop this SHIT from fouling our Oceans?

If this is the state of our so called supremacy as a species, then we are truly FUCKED and we don't deserve to evolve.

But as Saint Sarah Palin of the Tea Bagger Brigade would have you believe...."We'll always have Jesus!" He'll save us!

Sure. And I bet Willow believes in the Easter Bunny also!

Another Example Of A Republican Hypocrite!

2010-06-25T12:31:00.002-05:00

My God! Do these people really listen to themselves?

I am sick of listening to these "Douche bag, Repugnican hypocrites" bitch and moan about hand outs only to find out that "THEY" are some of the biggest recipients of GOVERNMENT MONEY! ( or dare I say......HAND OUTS!!!!)

Here is the latest "scum sucking, piece of Repugnican shit" bitching about "Democratic Parasites" yet is living high on the Government tit.....

(HT Young Turks )

Now this from Think Progress:

Missouri farmer David Jungerman has raised the hackles of local residents with a politically-charged sign he’s placed on his “45-foot-long, semi-truck box trailer” on his farm. The trailer reads: “Are you a Producer or Parasite Democrats – Party of the Parasites.” Now, the Kansas City Star reveals that Jungerman has been the recipient of over a million dollars of federal farm subsidies since 1995:
The Raytown farmer who posted a sign on a semi-truck trailer accusing Democrats of being the “Party of Parasites” received more than $1 million in federal crop subsidies since 1995. [...]

After a story about Jungerman’s trailer ran in Sunday’s Star, however, some readers called him a hypocrite for criticizing others for getting government help while taking government subsidies paid for by taxpayers.

Jungerman said he put up the sign to protest people who pay no taxes, but, “Always have their hand out for whatever the government will give them” in social programs.

Trying to defend himself, Jungerman told the press, “That’s just my money coming back to me. I pay a lot in taxes. I’m not a parasite.” He also said that the sign is aimed at national Democrats, not local Democrats, many of whom are “are old-fashioned Harry Truman Democrats,” who Jungerman says are “more conservative than many Republicans.” For the record, Harry Truman campaigned on establishing a single-payer health care system and famously vetoed tax cuts, making him much more progressive than many of today’s Democrats.

Don't you just love how these "Repugnant Republican Slugs" revel in their glee at the average man/woman/ family's misfortune at having to endure the humiliation of being out of work and not being able to provide for their families while this "Government subsidy taking, Parasitic piece of Repugnican shit has pocketed over ONE MILLION DOLLARS since 1995?

There's a saying...."There's a special place in hell for animals like this!" But somehow I don't think even Satan would allow this Piece of shit to foul Hell with his presence!

Some Of Today's Repugnicans Are A Bit Nostalgic For The "Good Old Days!"

2010-05-23T10:13:00.005-05:00

The other day on "Fixed News," Libertarian pseudo journalist John Stossel came to the defense of Rand Paul's idiotic stance on the Civil Rights Act of 1964.....

Think Progress:

The conservative media largely stayed silent on Paul’s incendiary position until after he backtracked in a statement declaring that he “will not support any efforts to repeal the Civil Rights Act of 1964″ and an interview with Laura Ingraham in which he said that he would have voted for the law. Fox News, which hosted Paul at least 21 times since last May, didn’t feature a segment on the controversy until this afternoon when Megyn Kelly hosted libertarian John Stossel, who said that he’s “in total agreement” with Paul:

KELLY: He is getting excoriated for suggesting that the Civil Rights Act — what he said was, look, it’s got ten parts essentially. I favor nine. It’s the last part that mandated no discrimination in places of public accommodation that I have a problem with because you should let businesses decide for themselves, you know, whether they’re going to be racist or not racist because once the government gets involved it’s a slippery slope. Do you agree that?
STOSSEL: Totally. I’m in total agreement with Rand Paul. You can call it public accommodation, and it is, but it’s a private business and if a private business wants to say we don’t want any blonde anchorwomen or mustached guys, it ought to be their right.

To her credit, Kelly challenged Stossel aggressively, saying that it was “necessary” to bar private businesses from discriminating in order to guarantee equal rights. But Stossel persisted, saying that he would repeal the section of the Civil Rights Act that covers private businesses:

STOSSEL: And I would go further than he was willing to go, as he just issued the statement and say it’s time now to repeal that part of the law.
KELLY: What?
STOSSEL: Because private businesses ought to get to discriminate. And I won’t ever go to a place that’s racist. And I will tell everybody else not to and I’ll speak against them, but it should be there right to be racist.

I do believe Stossel is due for another one of these.....

I just love watching Stossel get the "taste" slapped out of his mouth. By the way, notice how fast he ran away?

Typical Repugnican!

Ah yes. It seems today's "Repugnicans" are a bit too nostalgic for the "good old days".....

( To be fair, the Southern wing of the Democratic Party had many members that belong to the so-called "Invisible Kingdom! Their hands are by no means free of stain. It was after all the Southern Democratic Party along with their southern Republican counterparts that fought tooth and nail to block the Civil rights Act of 1964)

And that ladies and gentlemen should make you pay attention to who it is these "Repugnicans" really are!

( I should note that not all "Repugs' should be painted with the same brush but I sure would love to hear from some of those that do not prescribe to the "insane" faction of their party. )

Now That's What I Call..."Grabbing The Bull By The Horns!"

2010-05-22T19:32:00.007-05:00

Bullfighting. I despise this sport!

Anything that has to do with murdering an animal for the sheer pleasure of a crowd does not sit well with me. It ranks up there with dog fighting and cock fighting! All are barbaric!

That being said, I was more than pleased to finally see one of these 800 lb Bulls finally get some payback....

(If you care to see the close up shots of this, you can click here. )

Serves this dip wad right! maybe now he will know what it feels like to be "Speared" with one of those swords he loves to jab into defenseless animals!

Too bad they had to put this bull down. I would have loved to see it shove that horn in Rush Limpball's mouth!

"This Is BP's Rules!:

2010-05-20T15:16:00.003-05:00

As if we didn't already know "WHO" actually owns our government!

By the way, remember when T.Boone Pickens was all over "TeeVee" stumping for "Energy alternatives?"

Seems Mr. Picken thinks too much is being made out of this "little" spill:

Pickens:

"I think way too much is being made of the oil...that's coming out there in the gulf. All of that will get cleaned up and we'll be back to normal. The world hasn't changed because of this blowout."

Say what?

Tell that to all the people that have been effected by this spill. Their livelihoods destroyed for many many years to come.

Tell that to those that have to clean this oil from their beaches, their water etc.

Tell that to the marine animals that call the ocean home!

Tell that to the future generations that will be born with these chemicals in their bodies and the future health ramifications that entails!

Keep telling yourself Mr. Pickens, that too much is being made of this "little" oil spill!

Whatever helps you sleep at night asshole!

Call It What It Really Is.....RACISM!

2010-05-20T12:29:00.003-05:00

As someone who can trace his ancestry, in this country, back a few hundred years I find all this talk of being "Illegal" somewhat perplexing!

As most of my readers know, I am of Apache and Mexican heritage. My people have been walking the southwest long before the first Spanish Conquistador ( and dare I say...Illegal Immigrant ) first stepped foot on North American soil!

We all know what happened next. The flood gates were opened and a tsunami of ILLEGAL immigrants flooded this land. This country is populated by Illegal Immigrants! I do not recall any the native peoples giving visa's to the millions of "Wetbacks" that flooded into this country on ships!

( How do you think the Native People felt when they saw the swarm of illegals rushing THEIR shores? Remember, yesterday's "wetback" is today's racist nativist!)

As for what's happening in Arizona, what many in this country do not realize (or they conveniently choose to ignore ) is that Arizona, Texas, Nevada, California, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, New Mexico were all part of Mexico until ceded in treaty to these United States!

Wikipedia...The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo:

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (Tratado de Guadalupe Hidalgo in Spanish) is the peace treaty, largely dictated by the United States (U.S.)^[1]^[2] to the interim militarily occupied Mexico, that ended the Mexican-American War Mexican Cession of 1.36 million km² (525,000 square miles) to the United States in exchange for US$15 million (equivalent to $380 million today) in compensation for war-related damage to Mexican property.^[3] From the standpoint of Mexico, the treaty included an additional 1,007,935 km² (389,166 sq mi) as Mexico had never recognized the Republic of Texas nor its annexation by the U.S., and Mexico lost 55% of its pre-war territory.^[4] government of a (1846–1848). From the standpoint of the U.S., the treaty provided for the

The treaty also ensured safety of existing property rights of Mexican citizens in the transferred territories. Despite assurances to the contrary, property rights of Mexican citizens were often not honored by the U.S. in accordance with modifications to and interpretations of the treaty.^[5]^[6]^[7] The U.S. also agreed to take over US$3.25 million (equivalent to $81.4 million today) in debts Mexico owed to American citizens.

In Mexico, this is referred to as the The North American Intervention (La Intervención Norteamericana). Mexico had claimed the area in question for about 25 years since the finalization of its independence from the Spanish Empire in 1821 following the Mexican War of Independence. The Spanish Empire had conquered part of the area from the Native American tribes over the preceding three centuries, but there remained powerful and independent indigenous peoples within the northern regions.

There were approximately 80,000 Mexicans in the areas of California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas during this period and they made up about 20% of the population.^[8]

The treaty took its name from what is now the suburb of Mexico City where it was signed on 2 February 1848.
The cession that the treaty facilitated included parts of the modern-day U.S. states of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and Wyoming, as well as the whole of California, Nevada, Utah, and, depending on one's point of view, Texas. The remaining parts of what are today the states of Arizona and New Mexico were later peacefully ceded under the 1853 Gadsden Purchase, in which the U.S. paid an additional US$10 million (equivalent to $260 million today)

This is how the United States took what is now the Southwestern half of this country. Mexico won it from Spain and the United States from Mexico.

Now I am in now way suggesting that this land be given back to Mexico. I am a citizen of this country as were my forefathers before me. What I am saying is that Mexicans have ALWAYS been here and they always will be here. But we need to remember how we got here and how these politicians ( On both sides of the isle ) have used this issue to stoke up the fears that lurk in every persons soul.

We have much to learn from each others cultures. This country was founded on immigrants ( or so they tell me ) coming here from other parts of the world and displacing my Native American brethren. ( That's a different rant for another day. ) So why the backlash against the Mexicans?

JOBS!

Now that the Politicians and their Corporate overlords have literally raped our economy and shipped what little jobs we once had overseas, we are fighting for the scraps that are left over. The jobs NO-ONE WANTED to do before are the jobs EVERYONE wants now and who better to attack then the Mexican day laborers that clean your friggin toilets, cut your goddamn grass, buss your table and wash your dishes. Pick your vegetable and fruit. Take care of your goddamn rich kids and cook your rich meals!

You didn't want these jobs before. You were ABOVE that type of work. How times have changed!

And second....The so-called "War on Drugs!"

(I wont get into that here. That's a story that takes more time to tell. I will try to get into it at a later date.)

As we are now witnessing,, people that are unemployed and have their fears stoked by unscrupulous Politicians turn to the one thing that always follows a depressed work force...ANGER! ...And where there's anger, hatred and ignorance usually follow!

It is true that we have a terrible immigration policy and something needs to be done about it but to single out a race of people is wrong! How would the people of European ancestry feel if they were asked to show their papers? I would love to see the reaction if one of my Apache brothers/sisters were to walk up and ask someone of the "lighter complexion" for "THEIR PAPERS!"

You see where I am going with this?

Now we have this Idiot actively trying to deny children born here ( to illegal immigrants today, to every person of dark skin tomorrow ) their citizenship....

This is not going to end well. I hope and pray a solution can be found before this turns ugly. I am sure it has already and hasn't been reported but this has the potential to tear our country apart if not addressed as adults.

If we allow this ugliness to spread, there is no telling how far these racist ( Make no mistake, racism is at the root of this law ) Nativist, Tea Bagging, "GOD FEARING" people will go towards splitting our nation apart.

BP Disaster: There Are Many People To Blame But Will We Hold Them Responsible?

2010-05-17T15:21:00.008-05:00

BP claims it's Trans Oceans fault. Trans Ocean claims it's Halliburton's fault.

Watch:

I say it's the fault of each and every one of us that consumes the product being stripped out of the Earth. We have allowed these companies to survive without any REAL over site. We have allowed these companies to use their vast wealthy to "buy" our country out from under us!

We have allowed these Corporate Vampires to buy and sell the very politicians we entrusted to watch out for not only our personal interest' but also that of our Earths!

We have allowed this to happen so that we can jump into our cars and drive a half mile instead of using the two appendages we were given at birth!

Next time you see a "News" flash pertaining to this spill ( not to mention the countless other atrocities being committed against Mother Earth just so that we can have that new Laptop, plastic bag or any other superficial piece of shit this society claims we absolutely need ) ask yourselves this....."What good are any of these so-called "Must haves" if you have no damn PLANET left to live on?"

(by the way...I am also guilty of falling for the corporate hype..It took this spill to open my eyes to my own "comfort greed!")

I for one will NEVER use BP again! I pray that one day we can finally tell these "Oil whores" to take their product and shove it up their collective asses! I realize our world relies on oil to make it's gears run but if we can send a satellite to Mars, why can't we find a way to ween ourselves off of the Oil teet?

Just asking.

And just in case you havent realized how MASSIVE this oil slick is and it's deadly consequences, take a peek at this.....

People! That is OIL being pumped into the Gulf at a frightening rate!

And then there is this.....

And now, it is being reported that there is a MASSIVE plume of oil UNDERWATER:

New York Times:

Scientists are finding enormous oil plumes in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico, including one as large as 10 miles long, 3 miles wide and 300 feet thick in spots. The discovery is fresh evidence that the leak from the broken undersea well could be substantially worse than estimates that the government and BP have given.

There’s a shocking amount of oil in the deep water, relative to what you see in the surface water,” said Samantha Joye, a researcher at the University of Georgia who is involved in one of the first scientific missions to gather details about what is happening in the gulf. “There’s a tremendous amount of oil in multiple layers, three or four or five layers deep in the water column.”
The plumes are depleting the oxygen dissolved in the gulf, worrying scientists, who fear that the oxygen level could eventually fall so low as to kill off much of the sea life near the plumes.
Dr. Joye said the oxygen had already dropped 30 percent near some of the plumes in the month that the broken oil well had been flowing. “If you keep those kinds of rates up, you could draw the oxygen down to very low levels that are dangerous to animals in a couple of months,” she said Saturday. “That is alarming.”
The plumes were discovered by scientists from several universities working aboard the research vessel Pelican, which sailed from Cocodrie, La., on May 3 and has gathered extensive samples and information about the disaster in the gulf.
Scientists studying video of the gushing oil well have tentatively calculated that it could be flowing at a rate of 25,000 to 80,000 barrels of oil a day. The latter figure would be 3.4 million gallons a day. But the government, working from satellite images of the ocean surface, has calculated a flow rate of only 5,000 barrels a day.
BP has resisted entreaties from scientists that they be allowed to use sophisticated instruments at the ocean floor that would give a far more accurate picture of how much oil is really gushing from the well.

How do they propose to clean THAT up?

This is going to be felt of generations to come and just the thought of all the marine life that we are going to lose is mind boggling. Not to mention the economic devastation that those in the path of this oil will endure! By the way, if you believe that this will not effect you beacuse you do not live near the Gulf of Mexico, think again!

This spill is going to affect each and every living being on Planet Earth!

Despicable: Cat nailed to A Tree

2010-04-09T13:41:00.002-05:00

What kind of person would "nail" a cat to a tree?

Watch:

I hope they find the bastard responsible for this!

There's a special place in Hades for those that get their kicks out of torturing helpless animals!

Sentenced To Death In Saudi Arabia For Witchcraft

2010-04-05T22:48:00.004-05:00

Just in case you forgot how barbaric Saudi law is, I bring you this....

Watch:

This man is going to be beheaded for "Sorcery and Witchcraft!" By the way, did you dig what his brother said..

"Ali Sabbat is my brother and I know him. If I believed he was an infidel, I would have told Saudi Arabia that it was okay to execute him, but he is a Muslim."

Gee thanks for the support bro!

So much for family loyalties.

Savages!

Hypocritical Waters

2010-04-05T12:51:00.003-05:00

Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Maxine Maxine Maxine!

You ( Maxine Waters ) have been in politics long enough to know that when you open your mouth, there usually is a camera close by.

When you decided to open that large mouth of yours on MSNBC ( Which by the way is the propaganda peanut butter to Obama's jelly ) and accuse the "Tea Baggers" of some "vile" rhetoric, you seem to have forgotten your "vile rhetoric" not so long ago!

Watch:

I believe we all have a right to say what we feel. I believe that we should express ourselves in a peaceful yet forceful manner to insure that the "whores" in Washington realize that they work for us and not the Corporations that have pumped billions into their pockets! And I want to be clear, I am not a fan of this "TeaBagger" movement. Anything that reeks of Republican involvement has a way of making me puke!

Let's be honest here for a moment. The Tea Baggers are doing what we should be doing! Making our voices heard and as Maxine Waters said so "eloquently" in the video above..."Put some starch in our elected officials spines!"

I believe these "Tea Baggers" have the Washington whore house running scared! They know that as long as this Corporate sponsored movement ( and if you think for one minute that this is somehow a grass roots phenomenon, you have your head up your backside! It may have started out that way, but it isn't that way now!) is dangerous to their political well being. They know that this so-called movement has the potential to overwhelm them in voter fury. That is why they have made it a point to ridicule these people and this corporate funded movement. I personally believe this will backfire on those that take this movement lightly.

I also believe that the "creators" of this movement ( The Republican astro turfers ) will come to regret giving birth to this unruly child of theirs. This so-called "movement" will come to bite the hand of it's corporate master! This is one dog that is refusing to wear it's masters collar!

They ( the Republican party ) nurtured, feed and egged this beast on and as always happens when you create a Frankenstein, they will rue the day they set it loose.

It's already terrorizing it's master in his own home so to speak!

But enough of "Tea Baggers" and collars.

Let us get back to the hypocrite known as Maxine Waters.

She went on television and accused the "Tea baggers" of something she herself has done and feign shock and outrage over it!

Maxine....I understand you sometimes forget what emits from your corporately owned mouth but did you think there were no tape of you doing that which you accused others of doing?

The hypocrisy of these "Washington whores" is amazing! But as long as they have a friend in the media willing to over look that hypocrisy, they will continue to spew their bullshit and treat you like the sheep they believe you are!

The Insanity Of The Right

2010-03-25T18:06:00.002-05:00

I am no fan of Bart Stupak.

No, I am not a fan of someone who decides he and only he knows best how a woman should treat her body.

What a woman decides to do with HER body is not for ANY MAN to decide. It's not for some mythical, supernatural being to decide and it is not the Republicans right to push their warped sense of morality on the rest of us.

That being said, I bet some of the people you will hear below call themselves "God Fearing!" I would also bet it safe to say that the people who called Mr. Stupak and wished him ill were Church going Christians!

Listen to the voice of the Republican hate machine......

Watch CBS News Videos Online

This country is in some deep deep doo-doo and if we don not find some way to heal this dark rift that has torn our country apart, sooner or later some wacko will take matters into his/her hands and violence will ensure.

I hope we never get to that point but as long as there are bastards like these walking the streets, I fear it's only a matter of time!

Despicable Tea Party Scumbags

2010-03-20T01:57:00.003-05:00

Have you seen this video?

Is this what we have come to?

Watching the video above is disturbing.

What disturbed me even more was that no one came to this man's aid as he was ridiculed for the crime of having Parkinson's. Each and everyone of the people that stood by and laughed as these scumbags humiliated this man should be ashamed of themselves for impersonating a human being!

There is something wrong with us as a Nation when we allow something like this to happen and not one person, present at the time and witnessing this disgusting behavior, calls it what it is...DISGUSTING!

These people have no soul!
They have no morals nor do they have a heart.

There is a evil, dark, hateful spirit roaming our country today and it's called "The Tea Party Movement!"

What you witnessed above is truly despicable and my deepest desire is for both of these men to get a bit of Cosmic Justice for their actions on that bright sunny day.

I bet these men also call themselves "Christians." If that is the case, I would love to be there when they have to answer for their actions to their Creator.

Until then, they better hope their employer does not decide to outsource their jobs to India and that they don't end up "Begging" for help to pay those "Medical bills!"

Now that would be something I would pay to see!

Remember This?

HYPOCRITES!!!!!!!!

Sen. Bunning To Unemployed: "Tough Shit!"

2010-03-01T12:27:00.006-06:00

I posted a small story the other day ( you can view it below ) on Republican Sen. Jim Bunning's (R-KY ) filibuster to a bill that would have extended unemployment benefits to 400.000 Americans that rely on those checks to survive.

He not only blocked the "spineless" Democrats from passing this bill, he also had the stones to complain that he had missed his "Basketball" game to ensure the "little people" were put in their place!

The nerve of those peons!

Which brings me to something I read today.........

It seems Bunning has a message for those of you who were hoping the government would extend those unemployed benefits.....

By way of The Confluence:

Republican Sen. Jim Bunning (R-KY) on Thursday night expressed his opposition to renewing unemployment benefits on the Senate floor with an unusually harsh message for its backers: “Tough shit.”

There's a special place in Hell for douche bags like this.

Jabba The Mutt ( Rush Limbaugh ) Is At It Again

2010-02-28T14:57:00.020-06:00

The fat bag of Satan's filth thought it would be cute to make fun of a woman ( who was so financially desperate and could not afford to see a dentist ) for using her deceased sisters false teeth.

Never mind that this could have been his mother that was in this situation. ( Does he even have one of those? Mother that is?) Never mind that maybe some of his disgusting listeners may have identified with this woman's plight ( then again...maybe not! If they had any conscious whatsoever, they wouldn't be listening, and getting their enjoyment from, listening to this living example of jock itch) ...No. Pig scrotum thought it just peachy to make fun of a poor woman and her desperation at having to use her dead sister's false teeth because she couldn't afford to pay the dentist!

Listen:

This sack of Conservative pus, or as I refer to him: "Jabba the Republican Mutt," the obese ( pill popping. cigar chomping, never met a meal he didn't like, impotent, Viagra taking, decrepit sack of dog spooge, corporate man-whore, son of a sack of Re-pugnican diarrhea also known as Rush Limbaugh) pig scrotum took delight in ridiculing this woman's misfortune! This pig got a kick out of telling this poor woman that, In pig boy's own words....... "that's what applesauce was for."

Media Matters:

LIMBAUGH: You know I'm getting so many people -- this Louise Slaughter comment on the dentures? I'm getting so many people -- this is big. I mean, that gets a one-time mention for a laugh, but there are people out there that think this is huge because it's so stupid. I mean, for example, well, what's wrong with using a dead person's teeth? Aren't the Democrats big into recycling? Save the planet? And so what? So if you don't have any teeth, so what? What's applesauce for? Isn't that why they make applesauce?

This pig has the audacity to blame Obama for this poor woman having to use her dead sisters false teeth!!!!!!!! ( Look.... I'm no fan of "Teh Precious" and truth be told, BOTH party's are equally guilty of allowing the American people to fall to such levels , but come on "Piggy Piggy!" We're in these rough financial sea's because assholes like you piloted the ship! )

Re-pugnican ideology at it's best: Cruel and heartless!

Why anyone would believe, let alone vote for, these animals is beyond me. All they do is vote against their interest every-time they fall for this Re-pugnican bullshit! I realize there are some sick people in the world but come on people! To rail against those programs aimed at the less fortunate among us, (It's not only the poor now-a-days. The middle class has now become the new poor in this country)

These Re-pugnican millionaires don't give a shit about you and me! They don't give a rat's ass if you live or die only that you continue to send their Politicians money, vote for them and listen to assholes like Beck and Limbaugh! You that tune in to their shows, have created these monsters! And like the monsters that they are, they care not one little bit about who they step on so long as the money keeps rolling in!

When a man called in to say that he could not afford the 6 thousand dollars he would have to cough up for breaking his wrist, Limbaugh ( with the crumbs from his "Pig's head and gut sandwich" dripping down his drug addicted fat triple chin ) incredibly told his caller:

"Well, you shouldn't have broken your wrist."

Media Matters:

Better hope you don't lose those millions "Pig Boy!" But then again, I would love seeing your fat ass sucking apple's through a straw!

Sen Bunning: Screw The Unemployed I Just Missed M y Basketball Game!

2010-02-27T14:38:00.004-06:00

Well those were not his "Exact" words but it is what he was insinuating.
Watch:

Repulsive Repugnican Sen. Bunning:

"I have missed the Kentucky/South Carolina game that started at 9 o'clock, and uh, it's the only redeeming chance we had to beat S.Carolina since their the only team that has beat Kentucky this year."

So let me get this straight.....There is a bill being discussed to extend unemployment benefits for an estimated 400.000 unemployed Americans and if this bill is not passed, these people will not receive any benefits because this shit-for-brains Senator has been objecting to everything that has been proposed to extend said benefits?

Unfreakingbelievable!

This so-called representative of the people is more concerned that he missed his beloved basketball game than he is about the people he supposedly is representing!

These people ( The Political Whores and their Corporate Pimps ) have long given up the "I work for the people " charade. They no longer give a damn that you know they are selling their political asses to the highest bidders and that you do not have any say in what happens in this country.

Your vote ( did it ever? ) no longer matters. Unless of course you have a few million to spare on these Washington prostitutes!

So, while this Repugnican douche bag whines about missing his basketball game, his Republican constituents can go on worrying about paying the rent/mortgage, feeding their families, paying their utility bills, car note, doctor bills, gas for their cars...etc.

But by all means......Please don't bother Sen. Bunning with your "Trivial" problems....."He has a Basketball game to watch!"

Moving on.....

Found on Crooks and Liars:

Nancy Pelosi reminds"Teh Precious"of his support for the "Public Option." and also calls out the "Repugnicans for their lies during the "Health Care" summit......

Pelosi:

“Thank you very much, Mr. President. As one who has abided by the three and a half minute, I’m going to take a few seconds more now in closing to extend thanks to Mr. President for bringing us together, for your great leadership and without it, we would not be so very close to affordability, accountability for the insurance companies, and accessibility for so many more Americans to improve their health care, to lower their cost.

“Mr. President, I hearken back to that meeting a year ago. At that time, Senator Grassley questioned you about the public option and you said: ‘The public option is one way to keep the insurance companies honest and to increase competition.’ If you have a better way, put it on the table. Well, I bring that up, because we have come such a long way — we’re talking about how close we are on this, how far apart we are in here ( **emphasis mine** )

“But as a representative of the House of Representatives, I want you to know that we were there that day in support of a public option which would save $120 billion, keep the insurance companies honest, and increase competition. We've come a long way to agreeing to a Republican idea. The exchanges — Senator Enzi has been a leader in that, Senator Snowe along with Senator Durbin had legislation to that effect and bipartisan, because insurance companies opposed the public option. They couldn't take the competition.

“We have in our bill market-oriented encouragement to the private sector initiatives. I think that the insurance industry left to its own devices has behaved shamefully, and we must act on behalf of the American people. We have lived on their playing field all this time. It's time for the insurance companies to exist on the playing field of the American people.
“I believe I have news for some of my colleagues, because we have very much more in common. Senator Coburn, you had so many positive suggestions, which I didn't hear much else of, but from you we did. And I think you'd be pleased to know that after much debate in our house, we came up with value, not volume. Others have called it quality, not quantity in terms of utilization, overutilization. Senator McCain when you talk about fraud — we're talking about addressing regional disparities in terms of compensation and health care.
“So we have addressed many of these new issues in the bill. I think it's really important to note, though, and I want the record to show, because two statements were made here that are not factual in relationship to these bills. My colleague, Leader Boehner, the law of the land is there is no public funding of abortion, and there is no public funding of abortion in these bills and I don't want our listeners or viewers to get the wrong impression from what you said. Mr. Camp, you said that the Medicare cuts in this bill cut benefits for seniors. They do not. They do not. So I want the record to show just in those two cases, we may have differences of opinion and approach and evaluation of the value of different things, but certain things are facts about our bills that I cannot let the opposite view stand when they are stated.
“Yes, it's hard to do this. The misrepresentation campaign that is going on about these bills, it's a wonder anybody would support them, as Mr. Waxman said. But the fact is, as the President said, many of these provisions on their own are largely supported by the American people. So this will take courage to do. Social Security was hard. Medicare was hard. Health care reform for all Americans — insurance reform is hard — but we will get it done.
“And as we leave this debate, I think that many of the differences that we have are complicated and they are legitimate. They are differences of opinion about the role of government and the rest. But I think it's really clear on one point that the American people understand very clearly, they understand that there should be an end to discrimination on the basis of pre-existing conditions. The proposals we have put forth end discrimination on the basis of pre-existing conditions, the Republican bill does not.
“With that, Mr. President, I thank you again for the opportunity to discuss the differences and to try to find some common ground on this.”

I commend her for having more balls then the so-called men in the room. She reminded "Teh Precious" that he supported the Public Option" before he didn't ( he claims he still does but we know better ) and in doing so, rubs his face in his hypocrisy. ( Notice how Oblah-Blah started writing down on his note pad when Pelosi stuck the knife in. If I were her I'd watch my political back. Or...maybe he was just doing what he has always done....doodle while the grown ups talk )

Anyway, I am happy she reminded Oblah-Blah of his hypocrisy and I loved it when she verbally slapped these two Repugnican bullshitters for their obvious lies

She has a long way to go before she ever gets my trust again but this is a start.

Pigs: Three Different Ones

2010-02-26T15:18:00.003-06:00

This is for those of you who may have just arrived back to Mother Earth from your " Carnival Cruise" trip to Alpha Centari ( either that or you've been in a coma for the last 30 years ) and do not understand why many Liberal, ( people like me ) Progressive, (The Kool-Aid sipping, Hopium smoking, Magic Unicorn riding, Sexist/Misogynist wing of the Democratic Party ) and just about any intelligent person with a conscious, absolutely despises the "Repugnican Party.

I present the following....

(**note** Listen to what he says around the 2:45 mark of the video)

This "Turd Blossom" has no problem advocating that hospital's toss people out of their emergency rooms on on their ass to save......MONEY!

This despicable, "Corporate Water Carrier" and sub-human lump of "Conservative Repugnican Pig Shit" is the lowest form of creature walking the planet!

In case you missed what he said...

The Hill:

Emergency rooms should be able to turn patients away to cut costs, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R-Minn.) said last night

Appearing on Fox News's "On the Record with Greta Van Sustren" last night, Pawlenty said the federal law that mandates ER treatment should be repealed.

"Well, for one thing you could do is change the federal law so that not every ER is required to treat everybody who comes in the door, even if they have a minor condition," Pawlenty said. "They should be -- if you have a minor condition, instead of being at the really expensive ER, you should be at the primary care clinic."

(emphasis mine)

Supporters of the federal law would content that many people go to ERs precisely because they do not have the insurance to pay for a primary care physician.

Van Susteren was also skeptical about Pawlenty's proposal, pointing out that it's difficult to tell what's a minor condition without treating it.

VAN SUSTEREN: OK. OK. But you come in with chest pains, and like, you get horrible chest pains. Now, it could be indigestion, which is minor, or it could be heart, which isn't minor. So then...

PAWLENTY: You have to do a little triage. That's for sure.

VAN SUSTEREN: Right. I mean, so the problem is, it's got -- I mean, there really is sort of -- it's not that easy.

Got that!

If this Repugnican has his way and you find yourselves in an Emergency room because you lack the funds to see a doctor, you can and will be DENIED treatment and toss out on your ass!

And don't think the Repugnicans are the only ones guilty of this....

SunTimes:

August 23, 2008

BY TIM NOVAK AND CHRIS FUSCO Staff Reporters
U. of C. shunning poor patients?
Sen. Barack Obama's wife and three close advisers have been involved with a program at the University of Chicago Medical Center that steers patients who don't have private insurance -- primarily poor, black people -- to other health care facilities.
(**Emphasis mine**)
Michelle Obama -- currently on unpaid leave from her $317,000-a-year job as a vice president of the prestigious hospital -- helped create the program, which aims to find neighborhood doctors for low-income people who were flooding the emergency room for basic treatment. Hospital officials say such patients hinder their ability to focus on more critically ill patients in need of specialized care, such as cancer treatment and organ transplants.

And, guess who had his dirty little mitts deep in this program...........?

Obama's top political strategist, David Axelrod, co-owns the firm, ASK Public Strategies, that was hired by the hospital last year to sell the program -- called the Urban Health Initiative -- to the community as a better alternative for poor patients. ( **emphasis mine** ) Obama's wife and Valerie Jarrett, an Obama friend and adviser who chairs the medical center's board, backed the Axelrod firm's hiring, hospital officials said.

So, it seems ( as if we didn't already know this ) that both the Repugnicans and the Dimocrates have some nasty on their hands when it comes to screwing the poor and middle class!

And then there's this idiot....

Crooks and Liars:

Bob Marshall is the Virginia Republican legislator who recently made a name for himself by claiming that God punishes women who have abortions by giving them disabled children.
Now we have footage of the guy who introduced Marshall at last week’s anti-Planned Parenthood press conference in Richmond, and it ain’t pretty.
Rev. Joe Ellison – with Marshall at his back – vouched for Pat Robertson and said that God punished Haitians with an earthquake because they practice voodoo. Then he introduced Marshall as a "warrior who will fight for our cause." Two minutes later, Marshall made his infamous remarks about God punishing women who have abortions. Here's Ellison, in the video above:
"From a spiritual standpoint, we think the Dr. Robertson was on target about Haiti, in the past, with voodoo. And we believe in the Bible that the practice of voodoo is a sin, and what caused the nation to suffer. Those who read the Bible and study the history know that what Dr. Robertson said was the truth."
Does Marshall stand behind Ellison and his remarks on Haiti? He would no doubt say no. After all, he is running away from his own remarks and lashing out at the student-run Capital News Service, which broke the story and ran circles around veteran statehouse reporters.

Who the hell is Bob Marshall you ask?

I'm glad you asked.....This is "Who" Bob Marshall is........

When a group of religious-right poobahs unveiled their effort in Virginia last week to attack Planned Parenthood and its funding, one of them -- a Republican legislator named Bob Marshal, as Josh at RightWingWatch reported -- declared that God punished women who've had abortions by giving them disabled children later:
“The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion with handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the first born of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children,” said Marshall, a Republican.
“In the Old Testament, the first born of every being, animal and man, was dedicated to the Lord. There’s a special punishment Christians would suggest.”

Again we have another "Repugnican Douche Bag" opening his mouth and reaffirming why many of us have come to believe the "Repugnicans" and their crazy, foaming at the mouth "Tea Bagging" ( I'm with Joseph Cannon on this. If you don't like the term.....Not My Problem!) allies, not to mention the "Rabid, "Religious Right" and their army of morally perfect, magic underwear wearing, savior obsessed, homophobic (The very same that believe you can get the Gay cooties from breathing the same air, drinking the same water, or just by touching one of these morally corrupt gay/ lesbian degenerates ) "Corporate funded Christian Hypocrites" ( These folks profess to follow the example of Jesus, yet will not offer a slice of bread to a hungry child!) are nothing more than the by product of all the shit humanity has excreted throughout history!

And then we have this lump of discarded after-birth deciding to pollute the air we breath with this foul, verbal diarrhea.....

And they wonder why we believe these people evolved from the shit pile of humanity!

In the words of the Great Pink Floyd:

Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are.
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are.
And when your hand is on your heart,
You're nearly a good laugh,
Almost a joker,
With your head down in the pig bin,
Saying "Keep on digging."
Pig stain on your fat chin.
What do you hope to find.
When you're down in the pig mine.
You're nearly a laugh,
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry

Try to have a great weekend!

Conservative Homophobe Booed For Condeming CPAC For Inviting Gay Organization

2010-02-20T00:44:00.000-06:00

Why any self respecting Gay or Lesbian would ever want to be associated with a party that allows animals like this as a member is beyond me.....

One has to wonder why this "fine upstanding specimen of Christianity" has such hatred for Gay or Lesbians? Could it be that maybe, just maybe, he is hiding something in his "Repugnican closet?"

Isn't that the MO of these "Closeted Repugnicans?" They attack with a vengeance those they so closely identify with.

All one has to do is Google the names of some prominent Repugnicans ( those that screamed the loudest their homophobe rants ) and one will see that in reality, they were practicing some form of self hate!

And they call themselves........"Christians?"

A Lesson In Whoop Ass!

2010-02-18T14:35:00.000-06:00

This is what happens when a punk decides to attack a 67 year old man on a public bus!

After this fine upstanding punk got his ass beat by a senior citizen, he then steals the older man's groceries and then asks if someone can please call an "Ambulamps!"

Serves this punk right!

If I were him, I would go hide in that shit hole he crawled out of!

(***Note: It now seems that this punk claimed he was 50 years old and that there was a racial element to all of this. Was it the Older "White man" that started this or the taunts of "Pinky" or beat his white ass?" It also seems that the younger man was being egged on by a female companion who was taping the incident. Either way, there seems to have been some racial animosity to this episode and that in itself is disturbing***)

The Gravy Train Cometh: The Real Audacity Of Hope!

2010-02-18T13:43:00.000-06:00

While you and yours are buried under a mountain of debt....

While you and yours are struggling to put food on your table and agonizing how to keep the lights and gas on...

While you and yours are finding it next to impossible to find employment...

While you and yours are losing your homes because you can't pay the mortgage and your medical bills have you in bankruptcy court, Michelle Obama is living it up on the tax payer teat!

I was sent this via E-Mail today and needless to say, it was an eye popper!

This is how First Lady Michelle ( let them eat cake ) Obama is living on YOUR "Public Service" dime....

"In my own life in my own small way, I have tried to give back to this country that has given me so much," she said. "See, that's why I left a job at a big law firm for a career in public service, "...
Michelle Obama

No, Michele Obama does not get paid to serve as the First Lady and she doesn't perform any official duties. But this hasn't deterred her from hiring an unprecedented number of staffers to cater to her every whim and to satisfy her every request in the midst of the Great Recession.

Just think, Mary Lincoln was taken to task for purchasing china for the White House during the Civil War. And Mamie Eisenhower had to shell out the salary for her personal secretary from her husband's salary.

Total Personal Staff members for other first ladies paid by taxpayers:

Mamie Eisenhower: One-- paid for personally out of President's salary.
Jackie Kennedy: One
Roseline Carter: One
Barbara Bush: One
Hilary Clinton: Three
Laura Bush: One
Michele Obama: Twenty-two

How things have changed! If you're one of the tens of millions of Americans facing certain destitution, earning less than subsistence wages stocking the shelves at Wal-Mart or serving up McDonald cheeseburgers,prepare to scream and then come to realize that the benefit package for these servants of Ms Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by YOU, John Q. Public:

Michele Obama's personal staff:

One.. $172,200 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
Two.. $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady)
Three.. $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Special Assistant to the President and White House Social Secretary for Mrs. Obama)
Four.. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to the President
and Director of Communications for the First Lady)
Five.. $100,000 - Winter, Melissa (Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
Six.. $90,000 Medina , David S. (Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
Seven.. $84,000 - Lilyveld, Catherine M. (Director and Press Secretary to the First Lady)
Eight.. $75,000 - Starkey, Frances M. (Director of Scheduling and Advance for the First Lady)
Nine.. $70,000 - Sanders, Trooper (Deputy Director of Policy and Project for the First Lady)
Ten.. $65,000 - Burnough, Erinn (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
Eleven.. $64,000 - Reinstein, Joseph B.(Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
Twelve.. $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Deputy Director of Scheduling and Events Coordinator For The First Lady)
Thirteen.. $60,000 Fitz, Alan O.(Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director
for the First Lady)
Fourteen.. $57,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
Fifteen... $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady)
Sixteen... $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady)
Seventeen. .$45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady)
Eighteen.. $43,000 - Tubman, Samanth a (Deputy Associate Director, Social Office)
Nineteen.. $40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (Executive Assistant to the Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
Twenty.. $36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M. (Staff Assistant to the Social Secretary)
Twenty-One.$35,000 - Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant)
Twenty-Two.$35,000 - Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady)
(total $1,591,200 in annual salaries)

There has NEVER been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Lady's social life.

One wonders why she needs so much help, at taxpayer expense.
Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49, and "First Hairstylist" Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom traveled aboard Air Force One to Europe .

Pretty freaking sick eh?

More Stupidity From Breitbart's Followers

2010-02-16T21:07:00.000-06:00

Anyone who has ever read through Breitbart's comment section already knows that he attracts some of the most despicable piles of human shit masquerading as human beings.

First the video.....

911 Audio: MI Woman Calls 911 Reporting Fake Robbery
by burghnews

Now the comments from some of Breitbart's loyal readers....

demdicks February 16th, 2010 - 9:25 am

I say throw the book at her and ANY woman who falsifies assault, rape charges. Anything that disrupts an innocent man’s life in such a heinous way should be dealt with SEVERELY!!! Women, you know damn well you’ve been getting away with this crap for decades since the “women’s movement” started. A woman who files a false rape charge should face no less than what the man falsely accused male would have faced if wrongly convicted.

That said, it is NOT a get out of jail free card for the minorities who DO commit these kind of crimes on a daily basis, why do you think some of these accusations seem to be able to stick? Some stereotypes exist for a good reason. Just like the clarion call for “moderate” Muslims to raise their voices against the extremists among them, it is also incumbent on the naacp and la raza to not just blindly defend “their own” and announce if the evidence IS there, don’t look to us for a defense because of your skin color. Minorities also have a responsibility to castigate their own when they do harm and not just provide a blanket defense.

Dave, Tn February 16th, 2010 - 9:53 am

Backed in a corner by hard evidence, Fox admitted to lying about the robbery in an attempt to cover up a crime she was committing—stealing money from the very post office she said was robbed.

She confessed that after stealing from the post office for nearly a year, she realized it was almost impossible to continue covering up the thefts.

That’s when she decided she’d fake the robbery and cast herself as a victim. <—-Liberal mindset ================================================ Just another union protected government employee doing what they do best. Maybe she's one of the ones that's behind on paying income taxes to the tune of 3.1 billion.

CommonSense February 16th, 2010 - 10:57 am

What are some facts?
1. She worked at a Post Office – Union Employee
2. This was in the Detroit area – Big Obama and Democrat stronghold

I blame Liberals and Union workers – NOT WHITE PEOPLE! Just one more reason to question ones self if you have been a Democrat or Union worker. Your party and Union leaders lie to you and instill bigotry against white people and America in general.

Would she have been forgiven if she said the person was light skinned a talked with a negro dialect when he wanted to?

(** Note**Emphasis mine)

So I suppose it was Obama's fault this woman decided to implicate a person of color to cover up her crime?

I suppose it was the Democratic party and their Liberal wing that should be blamed for this woman's stupidity?

I suppose it is the fault of the Unions that this person is such a scumbag?

Well...

Just another day at the cesspool that is Breitbart TV!

Where's The Outrage?

2010-02-12T13:34:00.000-06:00

Why doesn't this surprise me......

Cnet News:

On Friday, the first federal appeals court to consider the topic will hear oral arguments (PDF) in a case that could establish new standards for locating wireless devices.

In that case, the Obama administration has argued that warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no "reasonable expectation of privacy" in their--or at least their cell phones'--whereabouts. U.S. Department of Justice lawyers say that "a customer's Fourth Amendment rights are not violated when the phone company reveals to the government its own records" that show where a mobile device placed and received calls.

Those claims have alarmed the ACLU and other civil liberties groups, which have opposed the Justice Department's request and plan to tell the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia that Americans' privacy deserves more protection and judicial oversight than what the administration has proposed.

Pretty scary stuff eh?

Where's the out cry from the "Kool-Aid" brigade?

All we hear is this....

.....coming from the Obamanation!

Can't say this enough..."You have been Hoodwinked, Bamboozled, Led astray!

What say you?

Is The Hamilton Project Obama's Sugar Daddy?

2010-02-08T19:00:00.000-06:00

Found this at The Real News Network.

Corrente also has a piece on their site regarding this. I would love to read Joseph Cannon's thoughts on this.

For those of you that still insist Obama is not, was not and never will be a tool of the Corporate Right, I suggest you watch this video and by all means...GOOGLE IT!

The information is all there for you to see if only you took the blinders off, stopped drinking Messiah Juice and leave the leave "Hopium" Smoking to those that know how to control their high! ( toke toke...pass! )

Here's a little something something many zombie O'bots either failed to notice, refuse to acknowledge or just plain didn't give a shit about, It concerns Obama's ties to Corporate Wall Street and the money he received from them starting way back in 2007.

( Take a keen listen to what Cohen has to say about Obama starting around the 04:45 mark. )

Jeff Cohen:

"This is amazing. This group ( Cohen is speaking of The Brooking Institutes Hamilton Project here ) is set up for budget deficits International Trade, taking on the Teachers unions and they have their founding meeting in April of 2006 and only one Senator shows up to speak at this founding meeting and that's a very new Senator Barack Obama from Illinois, who's only been in Washington a little over a year. ( emphasis mine of course )

So for alot of us who were tracking Obama in 2007, of course he got alot of 25 and 30 dollar donations from people that really wanted change they could believe in but in 2007 before he was a front runner, he was out fundraising all the other candidates from Wall Street and it was something I've never been quite able to figure out.

There were Presidential candidates from the state of New York Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton and Obama was out fundraising them from Wall Street early in 07.

Hmm...Tell us something we don't already know Mr. Cohen.

Cohen goes on to add this and for me, it explains who was and is really pulling the Obama puppet strings....

Cohen:

"Obama was getting this money before he was a front runner."

Seems like someone had an agenda and used a boat load of green backs to insure that agenda was put into effect! ( As if we didn't already know that! )

So much for the myth of those 5 dollar donations coming from "Millions" of Zombie O'Bots!

What say you?

Honor Killings: A Disgusting Stain On The Diaper Of Humanity

2010-02-07T15:48:00.000-06:00

I found this over at The Confluence and being a father of two beautiful young women, I was not only disgusted but furious enough to want to dispense some justice ( as I saw fit ) to those responsible for this.

( My thanks to LittleIsis and the fantastic writers at The Confluence for bringing this to our attention.)

The story below will not only shock most of you but it will also make your blood boil in anger. I know it did mine.

This sad and disturbing story was reported by The Guardian.com.uk....

Turkish girl, 16, buried alive for talking to boys

Turkish police have recovered the body of a 16-year-old girl they say was buried alive by relatives in an "honour" killing carried out as punishment for talking to boys.
The girl, who has been identified only by the initials MM, was found in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-metre hole dug under a chicken pen outside her home in Kahta, in the south-eastern province of Adiyaman.
Police made the discovery in December after a tip-off from an informant, the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet reported on its website.
The girl had previously been reported missing.
The informant told the police she had been killed following a family "council" meeting.
Her father and grandfather are said to have been arrested and held in custody pending trial. It is unclear whether they have been charged. The girl's mother was arrested but was later released.
Media reports said the father had told relatives he was unhappy that his daughter – one of nine children – had male friends. The grandfather is said to have beaten her for having relations with the opposite sex.
A postmortem examination revealed large amounts of soil in her lungs and stomach, indicating that she had been alive and conscious while being buried. Her body showed no signs of bruising.
The discovery will reopen the emotive debate in Turkey about "honour" killings, which are particularly prevalent in the impoverished south-east.
Official figures have indicated that more than 200 such killings take place each year, accounting for around half of all murders in Turkey.

This "animal" needs to be skinned alive for his heinous act of cowardice! This sorry excuse of a man, this animal should not have the luxury of sitting in a jail cell. He and the other animals that helped in this crime deserve nothing less than the same consideration they gave this innocent young woman. Anything short of castration would be, in my view, too lenient!

My idea of justice for this "Murdered" young woman would be to skin the bastard's alive and leave them to rot in a ditch full of human waste! Seems they would feel right at home swimming in the filth that they oozed from!

Why they are still breathing is beyond me.

I know I sound like a "Mad man" by suggesting that these two be tortured for their crime. I say to those that may think that I am going a bit too "Postal" about this......Put yourself in that poor child's predicament. Try to imagine what was going through this young woman's mind as the man she called father, the man that she trusted to protect her from all the "monster's" that roam this world, the man that held her, kissed her tears away, the man she trusted to teach her right from wrong, turned out to be the one she had to fear the most!

I am a father of two beautiful women. I cannot, for the life of me, understand how a father, much less a family, can sit in a "Council" and decide to "Murder" their child simply for speaking to boys!

I just can't wrap my head around this!

The practice of honor killings is rampant in many countries. Millions of women around the world suffer at the hands of those that impose their idea of morality on the weakest among us and it needs to stop TODAY!

Where is the media reporting on this? Where is the outcry from the world about honor killings? Why are we as a society so willing to turn our backs on the women who nurture us, feed us, teach us, soothe our pains. Why are we so willing to close our eyes to the murder, rape and disrespect to those we call Mother, Grandmother, Aunt, Sister and wife?

These were not men that committed this despicable act. These were cowards. They were ignorant sacks of shit who believed that simply because they have an appendage protruding from between their legs, had the right to impose a death sentence on a young woman for the crime of "Talking to boys!"

( The animal in the middle of the picture to the right is the piece of shit who tortured and murdered his little girl. This is what afterbirth looks like if not disposed of properly!)

These are not human beings. They are the afterbirth of humanity that slithered to the ground and wallowed in the shit of humanity only to sprout as fully formed "monsters." These so-called men are the pus festering in the wound that is our so-called civilized society ( I bet if you look deep enough, religious upbringing had a part in this ) and they need to be washed away with whatever antiseptic ( bullets preferably) will rid the human race of this infection!

Until we as a "Human Race" decide to rid ourselves of this pox, can we really call ourselves....."Civilized?"

Need I say more?

Racism Is Alive And Florishing

2010-02-05T13:32:00.000-06:00

Some people really need to take their medication on a regular basis.

What your about to see is horrific and the people who participated in this attack need to be arrested and jailed for this savage attack.

I don't want to give the impression that the attack on this innocent man wasn't horrible in itself, it is and was but for my purpose it's the comments that proceed this video that I want to draw your attention to.

And.....If you care to wallow in the shit that is a BriebartTV, you can read the idiotic comments posted following the video.

( You really shouldn't subject yourselves to that cruelty though. It can leave a deep psychological scar that may require intense therapy.)

Watch....

Although a sane person would never suggest for a minute that the election of Obama or his policies had anything to do with the vicious attack on this city worker, some ( obviously wing nuts and racist douche bags ) are suggesting that is the case!

Here's but one of the many comments found on Briebart's web page pertaining to this video clip.......

bill norris February 3rd, 2010 - 5:00 pm

"Looks like a bunch of blacks did it.
After all, thats the way they are.
Too bad that guy didn’t have a gun"

Yup! He went there!

So, let me get this straight....A mob of "Black" kids attacks a "White" man and Bill wants us to know that..."That's the way they all are?"

So Bill, how do you explain this......

So by your logic then I should assume that all "White" folks are this way also?

I'm sorry sparky but I would never draw such a conclusion and nothing can ever make me believe that this is the case. Racism comes in all flavors and to attach this to one race or the other is insanity. If I were to allow myself to think as you do then what is the point of living? I would have to shut myself up in a cave somewhere and shun all of humanity!

You ( Bill ) and those that think like you are nothing more than the afterbirth of humanity! You are a shit stain on the diaper of mankind! People like you are the reason this country is in the screwed up shape it is in. You are ignorant of those that are different from you and you fear that which you don't understand. As that Gasbag on MSNBC would say ( Keith Ogremann ) "You sir are a coward!"

You obviously are in need of professional help. I suggest you find a good shrink and seek some counseling for what ails you.

Obviously you are in desperate need of some strong medication. Might I suggest Lithium?

As for trying to attach this heinous crime on Obama's being the President, Wow...I really don't have words to describe the stupidity of that!

Although I am not one of those that imbibed of the weed that is "hopium ( as one can clearly surmise by reading my blog ) and I have been a outspoken critic of everything that reeks of the Obamanation, this is taking it a bit too far.....

"typical behavior. Didn’t have to see the video to know who was doing it"
......
"Ghetto brats. They all obviously have bright futures and parents who care."
........
"This appears to be the Obama Youth Corp out on patrol.

I believe their motto is “Hell No! We Won’t Work! Hell No! We Won’t Work!”, and their charter is
to “Stomp out Work, Workers, and anything Work related”.

And for this they will receive “OBAMA MONEY”.

The criteria to become a member of the Obama Youth Corp is “You must be black, you must be poor and you must be lazy”.

Obviously, from this video, there are plenty of applicants that have meet and surpassed the criteria for membership.

“Hope and Change” as arrived. Thank you Barry."

And last but not least, there is this from a fine upstanding Racist......

Last Chip February 4th, 2010 - 10:45 am

"Rome is falling, and we all look the other way for fear of being called a racist for stating the truth. Inner city black youths by large, will always be pack running low intelligent, violent savages and a drain on society. Because we expect and demand nothing more form them, the jessy jackson types are content to let them remain that way, because stupid people are easy to control. What a sad waste."

Yup. Somehow this attack is all Obama's fault!

Yes these teens were ( by all accounts and from what the video clearly shows ) African Americans and they all need to be brought to justice for this attack but to suggest that this is
how "All" African Americans are is not only despicable, it is dangerous!

So it seems in the eyes of these people, this attack can be laid at the feet of Obama. Never mind that violence like this is perpetrated by people of all colrs, to the people above only "Black Folk" are savages!

Briebart and his ilk should be held accountable for allowing this trash to be published on their site. We all know that if the shoe were on the other foot, the "Wacky Wing Nut's" on the right would waste no time in calling for the heads of any "Liberal" blog that allowed these rants to be published!

Anyway.......

As I said at the top of this entry,

"Some people really should take their medication on a daily basis!"

Obama Can't Help Himself

2010-01-31T13:49:00.000-06:00

Obama can't help himself.

The other day, in a speech to Republicans ( When he was defending his flip flop on "public hearings for the Health Care debate. You know the one's he prostituted himself to the voters by claiming they would be held on C-Span ) Obama actually let these words escape his lips....

Obama:

"The truth of the matter is if you look at the course of the year, overwhelmingly the majority of it actually was on C=Span because it was taking place in Congressional hearings in which you guys were participating."

Say what?

So this is the new meme coming from this sorry ass Administration now? That the hearings and subsequent debates were televised so quit your bitchin?

Really?

I don't recall seeing the Lobbyist, the CEO's and the people for and against the Health Care scam anywhere on C-Span.

Did you?

Now here I will let the Bullshit artist himself speak for himself....

He is now actually claiming that the Health Care Debate he promised would take place on C-Span while running around the world pandering for votes, actually DID take place on said network!

Can you believe the stones on this man?

Kinda makes one ask..."Does Obama suffer from a "Personality Disorder?"

Is Obama a Narcissist, a Pathological Liar, a Mythomaniac, a Compulsive Liar, a Sociopath Social Climber?

Personally I believe he is all of the above but here's a list of the above and their definitions and see if you spot anything that describes O'Blah Blah.

WikiAnswers:

Identifying a Pathological Liar:

Pathological liars, or "mythomaniacs," may be suffering from histrionic personality disorder or narcissistic personality disorder. The following comments basically reflect a pathological liar who has the characteristics of histrionic personality disorder.

Some characteristics:

1. Exaggerates things that are ridiculous.
2. One-upping. Whatever you do, this person can do it better. You will never top them in their own mind, because they have a concerted need to be better than everyone else. This also applies to being right. If you try to confront an individual like this, no matter how lovingly and well-intentioned you might be - this will probably not be effective. It's threatening their fantasy of themselves, so they would rather argue with you and bring out the sharp knives than admit that there's anything wrong with them.
3. They "construct" a reality around themselves. They don't value the truth, especially if they don't see it as hurting anyone. If you call them on a lie and they are backed into a corner, they will act very defensively and say ugly things (most likely but depends on personality), but they may eventually start to act like, "Well, what's the difference? You're making a big deal out of nothing!" (again, to refocus the conversation to your wrongdoing instead of theirs).
4. Because these people don't value honesty, a lot of times they will not value loyalty. So watch what you tell them. They will not only tell others, but they will embellish to make you look worse. Their loyalty is fleeting, and because they are insecure people, they will find solace in confiding to whomever is in their favor at the moment.
5. They may be somewhat of a hypochondriac. This can come in especially useful when caught in a lie, for example, they can claim that they have been sick, or that there's some mysteriously "illness" that has them all stressed out. It's another excuse tool for their behavior.
6. Obviously, they will contradict what they say. This will become very clear over time. They usually aren't smart enough to keep track of so many lies (who would be?).
Another WikiAnswers Contributor adds:

They lie about even the smallest things. For example, saying "I brushed my teeth today," when they didn't.
They add exaggerations to every sentence.
They change their story all the time.
They act very defensively when you question their statements.
They believe what they say is true, when everyone else knows it isn't.

An alternate 'checklist':

Lies when it is very easy to tell the truth.
Lies to get sympathy, to look better, to save their butt, etc.
Fools people at first but once they get to know him, no one believes anything they ever say.
May have a personality disorder.
Extremely manipulative.
Has been caught in lies repeatedly.
Never fesses up to the lies.
Is a legend in their own mind.

How do you know if someone is a sociopath?

Answer:

Here is a list of ways to identify a sociopath. This list is from "Profile of a Sociopath". Is is a pretty good list of sociopathic indicators.
Glibness/Superficial Charm
Manipulative and Conning
Grandiose Sense of Self
Pathological Lying
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
Shallow Emotions
Incapacity for Love
Need for Stimulation
Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
Authoritarian
Secretive
Paranoid
Only rarely in difficulty with the law, but seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired
Conventional appearance
Goal of enslavement of their victim(s)
Exercises despotic control over every aspect of the victim's life
Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and therefore needs their victim's affirmation (respect, gratitude and love)
Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
Incapable of real human attachment to another
Unable to feel remorse or guilt
Narcissism, grandiosity (self-importance not based on achievements)
May state readily that their goal is to rule the world

(Obviously, in order to be a sociopath a person doesn't have to exhibit anything like all the above. Usually, the lack of a conscience, the manipulation of others, dishonesty and the inability to love and/or have lasting and profound personal relations and cruelty are key symptoms and often much more revealing than having been in trouble with the courts).

How do you know if someone is a narcissist?

Answer:

I think it is someone who is is self absorbed. They are impressed with themselves. They have a difficult time with other people when they are successful in life. They want to have the focus on them. I think it is especially an effort for them to take the focus off of themselves in order to help others. If they do help others it has to be gratifying to them or they feel put out and the person can FEEL their negative energy. I feel for any kind hearted person who has to deal with them. Their presence is toxic! Be glad you can see and probably feel the sick energy they display. You know it is their illness.

What is mythomania?

Answer:

Mythomania is lying or exaggerating to an abnormal extent.

Does the person who has mythomania know that they have it or no?

Answer:

The best answer I could find to this question is this, "it is questionable whether it is always a conscious act and whether pathological liars have control over their lies." So it looks like the experts are not even sure.

And finally my personal favorite and one that I believe describes O'Blah Blah to a tee...

What is a sociopath social climber?

Answer:

The term "sociopath social climber" sounds a statement condemning the actions of someone considered to be getting socially "above themselves" at the expense of others and "fair play" (sincerity, truth, honesty, integrity and so on).
However, a "sociopath" in the medical sense of the word is a person who has been diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder (and is therefore an "antisocial", "sociopathic" or "psychopathic" personality), according to the diagnostic criteria.
The word is often used to describe people who are harmful or damanging to others (and not necessarily diagnosed with a mental health disorder).
"Sociopathic" personalities are people without a conscience: they lie, cheat, exploit, con, use and abuse others CONSISTENTLY.
The sociopathic personality is narcissistic and is extremely self centered, self absorbed, self serving and can be utterly ruthless in pursuit of their wants, needs, goals etc. At the extreme end of the continuum, these people are capable of anything (murder etc).
"Social climber" is a value judgment, I guess. And it's not a particularly nice one from my egalitarian point of view as it smacks of passing judgment on another for getting "above their station" in life socially in terms of CLASS.

Now ask yourselves, "Do any of the above describe a "certain someone" occupying the White House? To be fair, this describes EVERYONE in Washington and every damn politician today. It's not only Obama that is afflicted with these traits. But what really flips my bippy is that the Bots that worship at the temple Obama refuse to acknowledge what any sane person can see...

Obama is Full Of Shit!

SC Lt. Governor Says: "Don't Feed The Poor. They Breed!"

I was going to write a piece on this but decided to let this Republican ( and dare I say..Christian ) speak for himself!

And to think...this man was once on WELFARE ( or so he claims ) himself!

The right has always attacked the poor as "leaches" and bottom feeders. We have become accustomed to the Republican hate machine churning this nonsense out. They have used the poor as their whipping boy for many a year so nothing this bastard says bothers me.

But....

What shocked me is the lack of outrage at what this animal had to say. Not one Liberal blogger, not one "Progressive site, Not ONE came to the defense of the poor!

Not one called this asshole out on his RACIST... ( yeah I said it ) RACIST remarks!

Why is there no call for this man's ass on a platter?

WHY?

Although it has always been the case with the Republicans and their hate machine, it is now apparent that Politicians in general have no fear of the people they so easily pander to. Why should they?

We all know who really owns them!
