Commentary from 8/11 thru 8/12

Sunday August 28, 2011

Listening to the up dates about Hurricane Irene and hearing about the damage and unfortunately some fatalities it seems like the State and local governments that are getting hit are doing a good job dealing with  it all.  This Storm has affected about 30 million people. I am sitting at my kitchen table writing and listening to the reports and genuinely concerned that this storm has some real potential for catastrophic consequences.  Fortunately it hasn’t been as bad as it could have been or even as bad as predicted.  One thing I am very grateful for is that over the next couple of days I won’t hear our fearless leader say Great job Brownie”.

Note:  For those that need to be reminded that George Dubya Bush was an idiot, this was
his contribution to the moral of the City of New Orleans and the Nation having been dragged away from his vacation to deal with the situation about 24-to 48 hours after hurricane Katrina had devastated New Orleans and also the Mississippi Coastal area.  Unfortunately for  America this was not the worst of Bush and only one of many brilliant moves. As a foot note Dick Chaney was still nowhere to be seen.

I was listening to CNBC in the morning and heard an interesting comment that “all storms are political”.  Some of you may remember a former Chicago Mayor named Mike Balandic  who got  bit on his ass by a snow storm back in the 70s.  Anyway I wondered how the Republicans might make some political hay out of this.  I am picking on the Republicans because Democrats are too stupid to take any kind of advantage of this.  If their political lives depended on it they couldn’t put a horse and hay together an make horse shit.  Somehow they manage to make a lot of Bull Shit but all politicians do that it’s in their genes.  Anyhoo,  I figure if I was a good Republican and could connect the dots I should be able to turn this storm into an advantage because I never let truth common sense or morality stand in the way of getting my ass reelected.  Here’s how I think it should go.   We just had a big storm hit the east coast and cause a load of damage, job creating damage in that roofs need to be fixed ect.  The logic here might  be “our religious right base has been praying and praying for something bad to happen to New York because they legalized Gay Marriage.  However for political reasons we can’t just come out and use that as a reason there are more more jobs.

I can hear the statement now “Since we republicans have taken control of the house in 2011 thousands of jobs have been created in NY alone because we know that America needs jobs and we know how to create them and that’s by cutting spending and lowering taxes ( on our filthy rich campaign contributors.) The jobs will just keep on coming. So you know what to do in Nov 2012, vote Republican."
A mike was accidentally left on and a muffled conversation was over heard between to GOP party bosses"I think were gonna need some more hurricanes floods and tornadoes so we can keep the jobs commin.  Get on the holey Joe hot-line and tell those assholes to start prayin."

Good ol Michelle Bachman, like herpes she’s the gift that keeps on giving.

She was splattered all over the news going off on a rant in Sarasota Fl saying
In so many words that God sent an earthquake and a hurricane to wake America up and so we would get our finances in order.  OOOOOOOk,  So I thought, what if God just happened to be listening to MSNBC news and saw this bull shit.  Maybe God doesn’t like getting blamed for everything.

God is ticked off because he’s fed up with being blamed for stuff he didn’t do by idiots that he supposedly gave intelligence too.  He needs to vent his anger and decides to sound off to his buddy Elvis.  Why Elvis?  Why Not?

GOD:   I’m really getting tired of getting blamed for all the fricken crap that goes on down on earth.  Shit, Some asshole makes up some bull shit story about a damn flood that I allegedly sent and all the sudden I’m labeled a vindictive prick. Next thing you know I destroy cities send plagues start wars, there’s no end to this bull shit.

Elvis:    “YOU Aint nothing but a Hound Dog”    Just kiddin lord ya know I love ya right?

GOD:    That’s ok ol buddy, I just needed to vent, thanks for listening.

Elvis;    Maybe you should just  kind of find a way to tell the folks how it all really works and that mother nature is in charge of earth and if they keep messin- wid- er, She’s gonna get real pissed and get real ugly.

GOD;   What the hell, I gave them intelligence and left clues they’re supposed to figure this shit out on their own so they can evolve into superior beings.

Elvis:  I love ya Lord but I think some how you know some of those folks are going to take advantage and abuse the system.  Kinda like I abused drugs alcohol and doughnuts.

GOD;   Yah, that's kinda how you got here isn't it?  Sorry pal, that was a cheap shot. don't worry, I have their names and I have a real big surprise for those assholes.

Elvis;   Thank ya vury much.

At that moment God’s personal assistant George Carlin  breaks in yelling “God,”  “God” did you hear what that dick head Pat Robertson just said?  “Did Ya. Huh?”

GOD;  ( irritated & being sarcastic.) NOOOOOOO enlighten me.  And by the way you did your time in purgatory for not believing in me so you don’t have to keep trying to kiss my ass, yer in, ok?  Besides, nobody likes a Snitch.  But what the hell, what did he say now?

Elvis has left the room,  God thanks George Carlin and politely asked  him to leave,  and is now alone with is thoughts.

GOD:  (thinking)  That’s the last time I go to a primitive planet and try to create a superior race in my own image.  Next time I have a science project  for my Omnipotence 301 class I’m going to keep it simple and just stick with Neanderthals.    I should have listened to Zeus and realized it was a bad idea. Oh well off to the Holladeck for some R&R.

Comment:  I don't  really know what GOD thinks or if Elvis is in heaven Or where George Carlin went but if there is  justice common sense and reason in the universe maybe it went down just like that.  There sure as hell ain't no common sense or reason down here.

Let me know what you think.






August 30, 2011

I just caught the news flash that funds for the victims of Hurricane Irene may have some long delays in badly needed assistance.  Apparently our disaster relief coffers are real low because of the record breaking amount  of crap piss an mayhem  that mother nature has unloaded on us, so the fucking Baggers are going to hold up the works until the costs are covered by budget cuts else where.  That’s like if a your house is burning down and the fire dept. can’t show up until it has found a way to offset the cost of excess water usage do to an unexpected number of fires and cover the overtime for the firefighters.  This is beyond idiotic it’s evil and inhuman.  I have a suggestion that will help.  For all the Tea baggers that want to cut something, cut your damn throats and donate your salaries to the disaster relief.   This Teabagger bullshit isn’t even funny it’s sick.

Rush Limbaugh has it on good authority that President Obama’s bus tour was a fake and the president was flown everywhere.  First of all I get real suspicious when Rush begins any statement with  “ I have it on Good Authority”.  That usually means he made the crap up.  Now if he would have backed up the statement with some verifiable facts like, I personally checked and Air force one was not in it’s parking space during the bus tour or I   searched the bus and the president was not on it, I was able to just walk on and no secrete service guy even tried to stop me, then I might buy into his bull crap.  As it is it’s just another Bull Crap Sandwich fed to the dopes on the Wing Nut right.

News clip

“Already, Perry communications director Ray Sullivan was reported as saying that the book is not meant to reflect Perry's current views on Social Security…” — even though "Fed Up" was published just last year.

COMMENT:  So either his book is bull crap, or he can’t make up his mind or he is a liar.  Which of these will make him a good president.  He wrote this shit a year ago, give me a break.

News clip

“While skewering the program might help Perry with tea party supporters, it could cost him with elderly voters in Florida and other important states were he to win the nomination, said GOP strategist Ford O'Connell.”

Note, maybe some new red state laws can require testing of Alzheimer’s for anyone over 55 at leased 30 days prior to an election date.  Or outlaw the wearing of Depends in  a polling place.  That ought to off set any loss of  the seniors Vote.

News clips

"Any candidate, who displays general election weakness, because his radical views scared seniors, independents, or soccer moms, would be disqualified in the GOP nomination process. A vote for such a candidate in a primary would be seen as a vote for Obama in the general."
In "Fed Up!" he writes, "If you don't support the death penalty and citizens packing a pistol, don't come to Texas. If you don't like medicinal marijuana and gay marriage, don't move to California." Elaborating in July about New York's decision to allow same-sex marriage, he said, "that's New York, and that's their business, and that's fine with me."
Perry has since clarified that he's against gay marriage anywhere, and last month signed a pledge that, if elected, he would back a constitutional amendment defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman, which would preclude a state's choice.

Comment:  Do you see anything fucked up here?  Perry is more than happy to Stand up and tell it like he sees it until it gets inconvenient then he changes his stand.  This asshole has no stand except to promote what ever get’s Rick Perry Elected.  The ultimate dirt bag politician.
News clip

"I think probably the best display, the best concrete evidence that I'm really not running for president is this book," Perry said, "because when you read this book, you're going to see me talking about issues that for someone running for public office, it's kind of been the third rail if you will."
Comment:  The GOP candidates are now starting to go after each other.  This is going to be like the “Cheshire cats” only instead of the one with the longest tail winning the one with the “longest nose will probably win”.


Notes on the religious right


-         If the majority of the rank and file religious right are functional illiterates that means that most of them can’t even read the bible and are being manipulated by the leaders and false prophets of the tel-evangelists and others who are in turn used by the conservative right.
-         If the religious right has a profound impact on who governs our country then we are  trusting our freedom to people who believe the Flintstones is a natural history documentary.




Is a sin to think Michele Bachman  is A hot Milf? Sick minds want to know.



"When you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. In praying, don't use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. Therefore don't be like them, for your Father knows.”
Christian bible     Matthew 6:5-14

It really pisses off the evangelicals when a socialist, commie liberal pagan like me brings this one up. It exposes a big flaw in their character in that they just love to use the crap that suites their  plan but ignore the stuff that turns out to be a little inconvenient but it’s there non the less.  Of course I do understand that they are almost always preaching to the choir so to speak. That choir is made up of vulnerable, barely literate people of weak intellect who are susceptible to being told what to believe.

Since Texas Governor Rick Perry entered the GOP presidential nomination race with a grand standing ass kissing shameless pandering to the absolute batshit craziest idiots on the religious right he’s now fair game. And I will continue to inject my venom into his sorry ass on this blog until he is either defeated or get’s elected President.  In which case I am going become a born again Christian and only write flattering stuff about him cause he scares the crap out of me and I don’t want to die in Guantanamo. 


Not really, like I always say “no guts no silver star.”  And no, I didn’t get awarded a Silver Star, Bronze Star nor have I received a Star on the Walk of Hollywood.  The last time I was awarded a star of any kind was when I peed in the potty instead of the bed for a whole week strait, which was one of my very early success stories. I was about three or four at the time. Roomer had it that Rick Perry still pisses the rack.  Ok that’s a cheap shot and there’s no evidence of Perry’s ever peeing or anything else human.  Damn it another cheap shot, this crap is habit forming.  I always had kind of an addictive personality. 

Note: In reference to the use of the biblical passage from Mathew , I am not making lite of the words of Jesus Christ , I find much of his teaching very profound.  We have a hatred of HYPOCRITES in common,  beyond that I don’t measure up at all. It just pisses me off that these “hypocrite” evangelical assholes dis the real teachings of Jesus yet draw him like a Gun when it’s convenient and profitable. If it doesn’t piss you off and you’re a true Christian, it sure as hell should.


Here’s something the great Historian and Congress wing nut  Michele Bachman probably doesn’t want to hear.

"The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty."

September 6th 2011

New Polls are out and President Obama has hit a new low in job approval at about 44%,  no surprise there.  He has been if not weak in his leadership at best naive .  He has been strategically incompetent in that he let his Liberal Base run his  program and it back fired. Now he’s in a hole that may be to deep to get out of.  The only thing he will have going for him is the probability that the GOP will run an extreme right wing  prick against him, and enough of the independent and moderate vote will vote Democrat.  The real problem is still congress at 22% approval.  I wonder who the idiots are in that 22% group.  I would consider voting for a Republican if and only if it’s Huntsman or Romney,  both are currently loosing to Rick Perry.  I despise Rick the prick, if he is the GOP  candidate I will do something that I didn’t do last time and that’s Vote for Obama.  Better a decent man who’s somewhat lame than a total dirt bag like Perry.  Unfortunately I see no real change in Congress.  Mark my words,  if Perry wins and congress goes majority GOP America will never recover, democracy as we have known it  will cease to exist and the once great United States of American will forever become Holey America Inc. and on a world scale will sink into total mediocrity.  


I have a great idea that will save America money and eliminate the problems with campaign finance.  Since Corporate and special interest groups can pour as much money into a campaign as they wish, why not cut out the Bull Shit election altogether and simply auction the office of President.  Take the funds from the auction and use it to fund things like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.  If we did this every two years we would  produce hundreds of billions of dollars in Government income that could be spent for the benefit of the people.  Eliminate congress altogether because they’re useless and replace them with a group of educated and wise thinkers that could advise the president.  What the hell if the Corporations own America anyway, make them pay for it. I’ll bet they wouldn’t waste money like the Government does.   I know this has some holes in it but is it really any more fouled up than what passes for government now?   Think about it because that’s where we are headed right now.  We are about to become the Late Great United States of America and morph into “Holey America Inc.”


I have a question for some of my more conservative friends. Yes I have conservative friends.  The question is this,  why does disagreeing with a conservative view point or pointing out something that America did that was  not so good make you an un-American, puke liberal commie pinko socialist, Islamic loving traitor.  I also notice that the biggest mouths in the bullshit patriot business never served one minute in the military,  heroes  like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Glen Beck  Dick Chaney among others.  I was no hero but I showed up, and I at leased shot at some communists,  can’t say I hit any of them but I at least scared the shit out of em.  The only shooting the Bull Shit Patriots have ever done is shoot off their mouths.  I didn’t include conservative pundit Anne Coulter in that group because she has a disadvantage of being a female and is welcome but not expected to stand up and fight.  Although I believe she has more balls than those three I   mentioned combined.  Her sadistic demeanor would have made her and excellent. Marine.  


Sept 10th

I was reading the usual political headlines this morning one in particular was kind of profound.  “Democrats are worried about Obama’s reelection.  What a bunch of morons. They had a big majority  and went down a rabbit hole dancing and laughing and had no clue that the troll was not dead he was just pissed off.  The Republithugs engineered one of the best bull shit smear campaigns I have ever witnessed and all but derailed an ill advised health care reform bill.  The Party of NO NADS then proceeded to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and get their asses kicked by a bunch of far right extremists  called the Tea Party. 

An intelligent thinking person might think it would be a good idea  to vote for another person for president.  I agree,  but with a big question., vote for who?  This is a sorry group of GOP candidates.

I was watching the cable political  news on MSNBC and caught an interesting statement by what appeared to be a neutral political  analysis concerning why  a bill to assist homeowners to lower their interest rates and lower payments should pass.  The logic in this is that  this would in theory lower the number of foreclosures and at leased help  speed up a market recovery.  Improving the housing market would in effect improve the economy.

The mindless wing nut tea bagger right has no interest in seeing a bill like this pass.  Their logic is it’s just another bail out and will benefit those who were financially reckless in buying their homes.

The truth is that this is not the real reason the Repuibithugs and their tea bagger toadies
would never allow this to occur.  The real reason is that they do not want to see any economic improvement because that will increase the odds that President Obama to be reelected.

The Republithugs know damn good and well that a large majority of the people who need this assistance are people who lost their jobs or are now under employed.  The logical solution is to set standards based on the circumstances’ of the home owner at the time of the purchase of the home, eliminate second homes, investment properties .  This is freeking simple but congress is made up of politicians with ulterior motives other than helping the American people.

House Republicans are pandering to their Tea Bagger minions out of fear of  loosing their seats to a more conservative dirt bag in the next election cycle.  Staying in office is more important than doing the right thing.

Now what I see is the NO NADs Dimocraps  doing what should have been done months if not a year ago by putting forward bills that will create jobs.  At this point this is too little to late.  

WAKE  THE HELL UP AND SMELL THE BULL SHIT.  Our two party system does not work because career politicians’  don’t have an incentive to do anything other than what ever it takes to stay in office.  Although I consider the liberal Democrats lame and stupid I ave a deep dislike for what passes for a conservative these days.  

11-7-11  4:19 PM est

Dr. Murry is found guilty  of Manslaughter in the case of the death of Wacko Jacko. So now the world is safe for weirdo’s and idiots once more.  Who the fuck cares. The Book will be titled Idiot Doctor kills Idiot.

It’s no wonder that Democrats are getting their asses kicked.  They’re not a party that sticks together.  Many members, mostly ones up for reelection, are balking at the new proposed jobs bill.  President Obama has lost his grip on any leadership of his party, they are now rats leaving a sinking ship.  It’s hard to spring the political trap that  the president has laid for the GOP if your own party members refuse to fight with you.  Now instead of setting up the Republithugs they are again handing them a path to victory by allowing them to slip the noose.  These moron Democrats are all that stand between us and what may be the end of Democracy as we know it. ,

I think I have stated more than once that I was a registered republican for 28 years and to this day kind of miss the conservatism that leaned toward common sense, civility and would seek compromise for the better good.  I didn't leave the party it left me.  From time to time I will drop a quote from some conservative political activest who is a known GOP infiltrator and who has changed the GOP into the vile ugly institution that is is now. below is where you can find a long list of some of the kind of dirtbags that have taken over the Republican party and disguised  themselves as conservatives.

"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."
"Not all Muslims may be terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims."
"Being nice to people is, in fact, one of the incidental tenets of Christianity, as opposed to other religions whose tenets are more along the lines of 'kill everyone who doesn't smell bad and doesn't answer to the name Mohammed'"

I just saw a anti Romney political ad that exploited the tragic death of a man’s wife due to lack of insurance because Bain Capitol had caused the family to loose income and their health insurance.   Trust me I am no Mitt Romney supporter but this went to far.  It is a shining reminder of how fucked up the Citizens United decision was and how it has exponentially made the political campaign process even more foul than it was before.  The problem with these super pac ads is there is no accountability therefore no consequences to putting out pure bull shit and calling it truth.  Both sides are guilty as sin but in defense of the candidates they have little control of what hits the air waves except to deal with it as it comes along.  In this case the White house should have at leased called it  what it is, a crock of shit.  Decisions made by CEO’s have adverse effects on people every day,  it’s part of doing business,  it’s part of life in a capitalistic society.  The  Ad that a GOP super pac is running that claims that Obama is trying to kill the work clause in the welfare reform laws is also bull shit.  The difference between the two is the

Anti Romney ad about the lady dying is essentially all true,  the only problem is it’s a big reach to blame Romney specifically.  The anti Obama ad concerning the welfare reform act is material that comes from altered context and is a fucking lie plain and simple, and that’s probably the big difference between the two campaigns.  The bottom line is that these super pacs and all the unaccountable money that’s pouring into them is making our political process even more corrupt.  Wouldn’t it be nice if all this dirty political money was going to something useful like creating jobs, rebuilding infrastructure, or researching alternative fuels.   We need all of these things but the ones that control the wealth want to spend it to manipulate government to their own ends.  They’re all guilty,  no one’s clean and it will only get worse.  The average voter in America is not much more that a part of a sheep herd moving along with what ever flock it happens to be in.   We might as well auction off all the political offices and use the money to pay down the debt. At leased something positive would come out of this cesspool we call elections.
