WTF? 


Sharia Law? What is Newty talking about?  Who does he think is trying impose Sharia Law in the US?  Has he been drinking, taking dope or has his last brain cell finally giving out.  


Before we say anything more, let's be absolutely clear.... NO ONE IS TRYING TO IMPOSE SHARIA LAW IN THE US!


If you don't believe that or don't know that, go as fast as you can to the nearest mental health clinic and get some help.


So WTF is Newty doing?  He's doing the same thing that the Nazis did in Germany in the 1930's. He's creating an enemy that doesn't exist by promoting lies.  QED.  Newt has finally shown his true colors, as a liar, as a racist, as being in favor of creating fear in order to promote himself.  


Newt, go to hell!

Why You Should NOT Vote for the GOP - - - EVER!



This is actually a semi-serious list.

10.  The GOP started the recession and also started much of the stimulus spending that conservatives are now complaining about. Personally I like the fact that there was stimulus money, but like the funds for rebuilding Iraq, the GOP mishandled them once again and let the foxes run the henhouse. In Iraq some 10’s of millions of dollars just went poof!

9. The GOP is not an inclusive organization. So unless you are European white or really, really rich (and maybe not then!) you will only be a token to them.

8. The Fringe right is taking over the GOP and you have real nut cases running for high office.  Most of these people are not capable of running their own lives, much less serving in Congress.

7. The GOP takes stands that are not based on the Constitution or reality.  The separation of church and state in the Constitution is pretty clear.  They keep trying to muddy the waters with statements about the US being a Christian country. Sorry religious right, the US has never been a Christian country.  That’s the whole point of separation of church and state.  You don’t get religion dictating law and you don’t get government dictating worship.  STFU, you idiots!

6. They lie.  Then they lie about lying. Then they lie about lying about lying.  Examples abound of GOP leaders saying things that are patently not true.  They say with a straight face knowing full well that it is a lie, and then they say it again.  But six months later when they are asked about it since it has been proven to be false and they were caught out, they deny they ever said it…. Specific Examples:  Anything coming out of John, the orange, Boner or Bitch McConnell’s mouth.

5. This is not your father’s GOP … Nor you mother’s nor even a majority of those people who still think of themselves as Republicans’ GOP.  This is the GOP of the NeoCon cheats and the Tea Party wing-nuts.  Or it belongs to Rush Limpballs. At any rate, the GOP does not belong to you. You are just a dot on their page. And if you’re under 40 and a Republican, then you probably have been left out in the cold by your party, and you need to take it back and stop it from doing really stupid shit.  Either that or you have had a lobotomy and should vote at all.

4. The GOP hasn’t had an original idea since Teddy Roosevelt left to form the Bull Moose Party.  The same economics that Calvin Coolidge and Hoover were pushing that brought us the Great Depression are the same theories and policies that the current crop are pushing… It failed them and it failed during the Bush years as well.

3. Corporations love the GOP because the GOP generally takes care of them by passing legislation that benefits them.  Prime examples are the Bush Tax Cuts for Corporation.  Corporate Tax rates are somewhere around 35%, most which they never pay because of loop holes that allow for all kinds of sweet exclusions and adjustments.  If you wonder why your personal taxes are so high, just look at the fact that corporate tax rates are seemingly so low compared to other countries in the world.  The pattern continues, with other laws past and new ones that the GOP pushes for allowing more off-shoring of jobs with no tax penalties.  Best idea is an Alternative Minimum Tax for corporations. After all, the Supreme Court says that corporations have the same rights as you do, so they should have the same responsibilities too.

2. FOX News not only reports on GOP stuff, they create it as much as they report.  Bill-O, Glenn Beck and others on that Network continue to push the people that Fox Execs want and to ignore or make shit up about the ones they don’t.  All that ACORN stuff was proven to be a total scam where the people filming it all went in and then doctored the results.  Then the woman who told that story on herself at the NAACP meeting getting all that flack for being a racist?  Come on, the people at Fox News are the biggest racists in the country, next to Limpballs, that is. But if they call everyone else one and scream it loud enough there are still people who believe them. Incredible!

1. If you vote for a Republican in the next election and are not a really rich white guy, then you are voting against your best interests.  You cannot expect any progress, social, economic or in any way to happen if you have more Republicans in Congress.  All you can expect is more “No” and nothing getting passed ever again. Because the GOP are big babies and bad losers.  If they can’t have their way, they are pick up the ball and go home.  Babies!!! Just look at John McCain.  At one point in his career, somewhere around 1995 or 2000, he was someone who actually did work both sides of the aisle. Not now, not today, and looks like not ever again.  If the GOP won't work with the opposition, then the GOP needs to go home and go to bed and let the Adults get to work.   QED

Listen and Learn.... Vote for Your Interests, Not the Rhetoric

Looks like the GOP leaders of the last 15 years, you know the NeoCons are finally understanding what it is that they have loosed upon the American people.  They have paved the way for the really radical elements of the right to emerge as the front runners for their party.  Now, don’t get me wrong, most of the positions that these fringe candidates hold are those that the NeoCons hold as well.  The difference is that the NeoCons don’t believe that you can get elected on those stances.  They don’t want to bare their conservative souls to the American People and let us actually see what they stand for.

So you see Karl (sig heil) Rove out there saying he supports the GOP Candidate, but that she really has said some crazy stuff, or Al Demoto calling down a Rep from his state making racial slurs on Fox News.  The message to these guys they are trying to get out is “Hey, we agree, but you have tone it back a bit or the voters won’t like it and you won’t be elected.”  Just another example of dishonesty by this GOP.  It truly isn’t your Father’s GOP, nor my father’s either.  It’s the guys who grew up thinking that it’s OK to cheat as long as you don’t get caught, that cheating on tests in school just meant you didn’t have to study much, freeing yourself for more important things like partying or that they were the chosen ones and they can get away with anything they want.  You know who these guys are. Some of them are in jail because even without regulation they still managed to break the law and others were disgraced in office, and some are the whack jobs on the GOP side of the ballot.

Really listen to what these guys are saying.  John Boehner and Mitch McConnell can’t support keeping the Bush Tax Cuts if they don’t include the tax rates for those earning over $250k?  what they are really saying is that unless my buds on the Boards of Directors get to pay themselves exorbitant salaries and benefits without having to pay a fair tax, then nobody gets a tax cut.  I.e. we only care about the rich.  When they say we can’t afford to continue with unemployment benefits, what they really mean is we want to give that money to our corporate friends and you all can eat off food stamps and live in cardboard boxes.  And the list goes on. Listen and think and you can’t help but see the hypocrisy and lies that these guys are feeding you.

Beck, of punditry renown;
 Wore a wig and big shoes whenever in town;
He’s not much of thinker;
More like a tinker;
And certainly looks like a clown!

If right means correct I amend,
That left must mean much better,  then,
The right is mistaken
And the left is left achin’
For the best for the rest of us men.

What’s good for big business they say
Is what’s good for you too, today,
While business gets rich,
You all can just bitch,

Rumors and Lies



Hey, the right wingers aren’t ashamed of the BS and lies that they put out; like the whole Birther thing and buying the Insurance Industries lies about healthcare; that I decided that I could do the same thing. So here goes….

Glenn Beckerwood is proof positive that Alzheimer’s can affect even some people in their twenties… fortunately, they won’t remember who he is or what he says for long.

Ken Lay-itonme, you remember him, Shape shifted into Sarah Palin.  Sarah’s husband, used to dead fish, never noticed and the real Sarah is now a momma grizzly-cicle in a snow drift somewhere in the Great White North.

Rush Limp-ah unable to contain his enthusiasm for the under-aged has tried everything from drugs to marriage to control his urges. Drugs got him in hot water with the Feds, will marriage do him any better?  Computer says, “No!”

Non-Reverend Terry (loco) Jones, pastor of that Florida Cult and classmate of Rush Limp-ah has decided that burning the Q’oran isn’t enough and plans to burn Moscow, since God told him that godless Russians of the Soviet Days built the place on Mosques… it’s in the name, you know?

John Boner is not orange, he is just so electric that his visage on your TV is affected whenever he is caught on camera.  As Speaker of the House he has promised to be bi-partisan, having become great friends with Elton John, a relative maybe.

These are of course all lies and I deny the truth of any of them…. Funny,though.

I'm Tired and I'm Not Going to Take It Any More!

I am tired of the greedy, the insensitive and the completely self-centered people who seem to have invaded the world lately. Most of them are conservatives.  May of them are fools and work against their own best interests believing they will hit the lottery some day and become rich so that they aren’t willing to make corporations pay a fair share of the tax burden.  They listen to people Newt Gingrich whose only agenda is keeping Newty in the public eye.  He has no political standing in his own party, so he’s down to just being a noisy irritant for the rest of us.  Newt, STFU! You had your Political apex, screwed up and are now passé. Dude, get a clue and go hide under your rock again.

It’s interesting how I start off ranting about fools and conservatives and always seem to come around to the Newster. Ah well.  Anyway, as I started to say, I’m tired of the greedy and insensitive.  What I’m looking for is for corporations, now looked upon as people per the Supreme Court to step up and accept some of the blame for the crap that is going on now.  Corporations are money machines with only one reason to exist… to make money.  But what if there were a kinder, gentler corporation? One that understood that just making its stock holders richer is not enough.  That they are indeed part of this society that we call America.  That despite the corporate purpose of making as much money as fast as possible, that they are indeed responsible to the society within which they operate.  Responsible for paying taxes, for instance.  At least paying the taxes that they owe and not pushing for breaks, exceptions and loopholes.  Might they actually recognize that without the people working there is no market for their services and products?  Might they understand that when they put all their money into the pockets of the executives and little into the pockets of their other employees that there is no trickle down, only hoarding and spending on things for the purpose of spending.  Perhaps with the minimum wage we should go back to the 50’s when there essentially was a maximum wage and earnings on anything over $3 MM per year were taxed at such a high rate that most senior execs knew that it was to their benefit to keep their personal incomes limited.  All of which freed money for the corporations to hire workers, invest in technology and research and drive a thriving economy. The Trickle Down theorists have been proven wrong for some time now. Perhaps is time to try the bubble up theory, where you invest more in those who earn the least and who are most likely to spend the money, thus fueling the economy.  Maybe it’s time for those who have plenty to figure out that they have enough and allow the money they are hoarding to work for everyone.  When only the rich get richer you wind up with feudalism and monopolies, not democracy and capitalistic health.

You know you’re really stupid when….


You know you’re really stupid when:
·        You believe anything that Newt Gingrich says.  Everything out of that man’s mouth is self-serving BS.
·         You agree with Mr. Orange Boehner that giving rich guys more money is going to put it in your pocket.
·         You think that Universal Health Care is the worst thing that could happen to you. No, getting cancer without healthcare would be much, much worse.
·        You think that allowing wall street to use your Social Security is a good idea.  Yeah, like they’ve done a great job with your investments lately. But hey, you want to give your money away, here’s a bag you can put your gold jewelry in and send it to us. We promise that we might send you some cash back.
·       Think that Social Security is about to go broke.  It’s solvent through 2045 or so, unless you let the Wall Street thieves steal it. Of course, you really expect to be a millionaire by the time you retire anyway, and won’t get any anyway, so why should you pay into it now?
·        You vote for any Republican running for office in this next election… Vote for your benefit, not the rich and not the corporations. And that means not voting for any Republican.
·        If you still listen to Rush Limbaugh and think he has any sense of humor at all.  Grow up! Rush is not humorous, just cruel, often racists and he wants you to believe whatever will benefit him and the really rich guys who back him and most of the GOP (Kochs and others).
·        If you’re a libertarian… Smoking pot and thinking like a Republican won’t get you any girls.
·       Think Glenn Beck is sane.  What is the matter with you anyway? We already know what’s wrong with him!
·         If you think Sarah Palin would make a good anything.  Ms Cheerleader hasn’t had an original thought in her life and is dangerously uninformed and misinformed and is not qualified to hold any office at any level.
·         If you think that Christians are the only people who have God’s ear.  Everyone does, even Jesus taught that, you cretin!
·        If you  haven’t left the GOP yet and become an independent while you wait for the radical fringe in the GOP to shrivel up and die from lack of a soul.
