The $800 Billion kick in the ass

I have been trying to muster optimism ever since the corporate media spent 2 weeks talking about lipstick.

Now we have to pay out $800 Billion because the great deregulators Phil (kiss my ass you whiners) Gram and John (i was NOT staring at Sarahs who-haw) McCain, thought they knew more about bank regulation than Franklin Roosevelt.

Responsibility must be assigned!

I say we pay a make-up artist to write "McCain took your $800 Billion" on the well shaped leg of one of the participants in "Dancing with the stars".

When the people attend to bread and circuses, you must write the message on the bread.

President Paulson is trying to put together a "coalition of the bankrupt" but Germany and France have told him to cram it.

Chriss Dodd is throwing on the brakes.

McCain inc. complains that the "Liberal Media" is mean

What a predictable pile of shit!

New York Times Bullshit

The singular leader of the "Eastern Establishment" "liberal media" the New York Times, The Paper that started the Iraq War with its front page, stirs up fantasy on abortion, on its front page.

How shocking!

Considering the Energy future

The writers at Earthfamily alpha consider the science of things down the road.

Everything you know is wrong

'Twas the title of an absurdist offering from Firesign Theatre years ago. It is now reality.

O.K tin-eared, echochambered, corporate media mouthpieces.

After shouting "lipstick" for an entire week, fundamentals for another, it time to shout "Elitist"!, as Obama has been labeled by Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild.

WTF

Economics 101

The excellent "Things I've figured out" puts you uppity working class folks in your place.
(warning, this site lacks the same "family values" naughty word filters as this one, but the truth is being told and falsehood is the ultimate obsceanity.)

Holy torture

From the frightening edge of the sociological Grand Canyon; majority of Southern Evangelicals favor torture. Results show variability when the word Crucefiction is substituted.

We are the "fundamentals of the economy"

No Campaign has shown more contempt for "low information voters" than John McCains.

and there is no lower TV IQ to be had than ABC's "Good Morning A$$#@ls".

This Morning John picked this blonde universe to float the latest highjack of fact.

"fundamentals of the economy"= Nurses, Factory Workers, Farmers...( whatever YOU are)

Therefore: when Obama and his supporters Mock the premise of the "fundamentals of the economy being sound"

THEY ARE MOCKING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THEMSELVES

It is the kind of ridiculous retrodefinition of inconvinient (to McCain) facts that might work.

there are 100 video clips of McCain saying "fundamentals of the economy are sound"

the statement is untrue, so we will make the statement true by re definining it

YOU are now a FUNDAMENTAL, just remember that now.........

Sex Ed talking point

"Obama wants to teach kids sex before reading" Getting hit by such a broadside (from your grandmother) could put you a bit off balance.

One page of propaganda dissection to give you the moral framing of a reasoned response.

The design of such outlandish distortions is to exploit gullibility and to piss off the defender (you) so that your brain cant work.

Suggested responses:

John McCain is defending perverts!

Obama supported a bill in the Illinois legislature which called for "Dont talk to stangers" "good touch bad touch" "go get a grown up for help" type education for children.

By opposing this, John McCain lets the perverts win!

UPDATE

Looks like Illinois could have used that program

Johnny we hardly knew ye

I came to know this dark 18th century anti-war anthem my Junior year of High School. It shared the melody of the later, glossed up, less antiwar American version "when Johnny comes marching home" but that was the end of the similarities. It was as if the American version intentionally ignored the exquisite expression of pain and loss of the Irish version, by ending each verse with the triumphant;"...and we'll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.

By contrast, a verse from the elder;

Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo
Where are your legs that used to run
When you went for to carry a gun
To be sure but your dancing days are done
Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye.


Likewise, someone named John has lost his soul in the war on terror
and his family is trying to find were he has gone.

Feed your head

Remember what the doormouse said?

Is this an entrance to another dream.Or the way back to reality.

Democrats need to re-set their gyroscopes, breath deep ,blow up their TV's, drink in the silence.

The republicans have found many suckers for their political ju jitsu.

'The mean liberal media and godless secular humanists are heaping disrespect on Sarah Palin because she is a Christian and a patriot" is the new republican mantra.

Rx
for the tail spin is as follows:

1) Never mention Sarah Palins name (she is a halucination)
2)only mention John McCain and George Bush
3) Remind people that one year ago John McCain called conservative Christians "agents of intollerance"
4)Remind people that John McCain was for the "tax break for the rich" AFTER he was against it (take that existential twist John Kerry!)
5)Remind people that John McCain is secular humanist who is useing Sarah Palin as a fig leaf (yuck) to decieve the good righteous Cristian people of the U.S.A.
6) read this

Fighting Foreign Terrorists since 1492

Being the good readers that you are, you have seen, I'm sure, the poster bearing that caption, along with a picture of 4 Native Americans with rifles.

The Shawnee, Lenape, Susquehannock and Nanticoke were so efectively removed from Pennsylvania that there are no reservations or federally recognized tribes left. But from Wisconsin west, The original inhabitants of this land, speak out on how the "Europeans" are running the place.

put your mouse ears on

over heard a couple of republicans doing the "was'nt the liberal media mean to sara palin" routine, "Charlie Gibson tried to make her look bad but our girl hung tough!"

This, obviously pissed me off at several levels, the greatest of which was the assumption that Charlie Gibson possessed the arguementitive acumen to give any one a hard time. I felt like screaming "Charlie Gibson could not give a turnip a tough time" but being as Gibson had not risen through the ranks of the anointed in time to interview Reagan, there is no direct proof.

I need not remind you that the only media team to do such a shitty job running a presidential debate, that they were booed by the studio audience on live television, were Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopolos.

Here is a five min. proof of why ABC deserves Boycott just as much as Fox

Say you want a revolution?

Obama looked great on the "9/11 Presidential forum"
Get yer ass to a campaign office, get some registration forms and a street list and sign some people up to vote.
Historically, revolutions meant shooting people, violence and all sorts of icky stuff.
We are at the point where we can overthrow these A$$w!p#s with paper and a pen.
So.....what the hell are you waiting for?????????????????????????


Give Crooks and Liars a hit to look at this great image



And while we cry in our beer over our present plight, listen to Gore Vidals description of how citizens of the Soviet Union survived total censorship along with a totalitarian police state and still were better informed than we.

Get off your ass and jam!!!!!

Glimmers of hope

Arm yourselves with factors inconvienient to the Republican/Corporate complex


Veterans:

McCain supported the private contractors who turned Walter Reed Army Hospital in to a hellhole.


McCain turned his back on the Jim Webb GI bill when the corporatists told him it cost too much


There are many others,(check the link) but Disabled American Veterans rated thus:



AZ U.S. Senate Sr John McCain Republican 20

AZ U.S. Senate Jr Jon Kyl Republican 60

DE U.S. Senate Sr Joseph Biden Democratic 75

IL U.S. Senate Jr Barack Obama Democratic 80

Fecal Volume

The McCain camp has inked the waters like an octopus with the Palin pick.
The media knows as much about her as we do, so they are giving her wall to wall coverage in order to show how informative they are.

Specific knock downs of the baloney she has been selling will be soon seen here.

I have been searching for a political metaphor to illustrate the good governors volumenous output and the quality thereof.

This may soon be forthcomming being as my pit bull (W/O lipstick) has eaten half a bottle of stool softener

Remember;
Jesus was a community organizer
Pontius Pilot was a governor

Sarahcuda 101

First off, a thousand thanks to Matt, the former producer of the former Lynn Cullen Show for attempting to rescue the last 9 hours of old bigmouth Clair on the radio. It seems the powers that be had the IT guy pull the plug on the podcast page early so that no one (including me) got a chance to download the last 3 days, I met up with Matt who will try to yank the missing programs from the bowels of data central at Mon$ytalk1360. Please pray for his success and read his blog (link down there to the left). Matt Reports Lynn to be "hitting the button" with every station in town that does talk, problem is, that aint so many stations. So those of you with bright ideas about internet radio,LP FM an' that, keep those cards and letters comming!

Also, one of Matt's corespondents, Amy, Lived in the town where Sarahcuda was mayor and has written detailed critique.

It seems that although Palin is stepping into the role of Dick Cheney, to Wasilla, she was George Bush, stirring up trouble, running up deficits. Check it out:
