The Party of Lincoln no more Republicans call for Secession

700,000 Americans have signed on-line "Secession" petitions. Numerous right-wing blogs are projecting their dark murder fantasies in comment pages everywhere.

They've been so snugly ensconced in their Alternate Conservative Reality that when it is crushed by the American People the reaction is fury and violence.

The night of Barack Obama's decisive victory students from the University of Mississippi took to the streets blocking streets, throwing rocks, hitting cars, shouting racist slurs and burning Obama campaign signs until the police broke up the riot.

Over at Vox Popoli the sad loss of unearned White Entitlement struck Vox particularly hard, 

But it appears the symbolism of white Americans being deprived of their choice of president by an alliance of aliens... 
This is just what immigrants do if they are allowed to invade in sufficient numbers. 

Unearned White Entitlement and Privilege are a deep foundational aspect of conservative thinking. 

But, before any conservative drone attempts to claim that a bigoted Right-Wing blogger doesn't represent Manistream Conservative thought Presidential and Vice Presidential losers Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan took to the "Liberal" Media to complain that "gifts" to the "Urban voters" caused them to lose.

Maine GOP Chairman Charlie Webster alleged voter fraud,

"In some parts of rural Maine, there were dozens, dozens of black people who came in and voted on Election Day."

Blacks! Voting! Fraud!!! The dreaded other is stealing the country out from under the Real Americans! You have no choice but to rise up and...

Sean Hannity the Voice of Conservatism airs the bigoted voice of Texas Secessionist Daniel Miller on his Faux News program to complain that the "Union has fundamentally changed" and for people like Miller and Hannity doesn't represent the principles "envisioned" by the Founders. Which must mean the racist pro-slavery ideas and absorbtion of Texas' Debt by the United States.

But, not to be overshadowed by their Republican Guard Dogs and Faux News sycophants the Rich Successionists began throwing petulant tantrums over President Obama's re-election.

"If I leave the prices the same, but say on the menu that there is a 5 percent surcharge for Obamacare, customers have two choices. They can either pay it and tip 15 or 20 percent, or if they really feel so inclined, they can reduce the amount of tip they give to the server, who is the primary beneficiary of Obamacare," John Metz told The Huffington Post. "Although it may sound terrible that I'm doing this, it's the only alternative. I've got to pass the cost on to the consumer."

John Metz is the franchisor of Hurricane Grill and Wings, which has 48 locations, five of which are corporate owned, and president and owner of RREMC Restaurants, which runs approximately 40 Denny's and several Dairy Queen locations. He planned to use the 5 percent surcharge tactic in all his restaurants starting in January 2014, when Obamacare is fully implemented.

There it is. The Rich can never have enough. The Rich are never satiated. The Rich will never pay their fair share. Instead the want the burden borne by the backs of the Middle Class. This is what Republicans mean when they always talk of "broadening the base". They mean to pass on all the costs of government onto the Middle Class until their backs are broken and Corporate Serfdom and Wage Slavery rule the land.

Papa John's CEO John Schnatter is in a massive snit about how much he is put upon by having to help provide healthcare coverage via Obamacare for his employees. He doesn't support his employees getting better quality healthcare coverage because it's bad for his profit margins. So, he's decided to add 14 cents to the price of his pizzas in order to pass the cost onto consumers. I throughly applaud this decision.

Price yourself out of the market and then pack it in and set off to your Randian Paradise. Have fun tending and harvesting the wheat for your crust, raising and slaughtering pigs for the pepperoni and growing the tomatoes for your sauce so you can make your soggy cardboard pizza in the wilderness. I'm not sure how you'll get the High Fructose Corn Syrup to make your sauce palatable though...

Go Galt already! You provide nothing spectacular to the American Experience. I guarantee some enterprising young American, such as Wisconsin based Ian's Pizza will fill the market with a better quality product 

Just go. Get out of my country. It's not yours any more. The Era of unearned privilege is over.

Mitt Romney has a Plan for 100% Employment in America

It's called Slavery.

"We need jobs, lots of jobs," Mitt Romney. Yes but what kind of jobs Mitt?

"In Tampa, Mitt Romney didn't offer one idea that would create good-paying, sustainable jobs for the middle class," Ben LaBolt said in a statement.

Ben, that's because Mitt Romney's jobs plan isn't designed to help the Middle Class it is geared towards driving down Americans wages, standard of living and benefits and institute his Neo-Feudalist Dream State.

When Romney says "We deserve better", or when Romney wants "America to succeed", the We and the America he speaks to are his Plutocratic Successionist Sociopaths and the American Era of Robber Barons and Wage Slavery.

Gina Rinehart of Australia, a Billionairess Who Built her fortune all by herself swinging a pickaxe and smelting ores into ingots of precious metals, beomaned that Australia was going the way of Europe and America;

"The evidence is inarguable that Australia is becoming too expensive and too uncompetitive to do export-oriented business," Rinehart told the Sydney Mining Club in a rare public appearance. A video of her address was posted on the club's website.

"Africans want to work, and its workers are willing to work for less than $2 per day," she said in the video. "Such statistics make me worry for this country's future.

"We are becoming a high-cost and high-risk nation for investment."

That is why their are No Jobs in America. Just like Rinehart, Mitt Romney, Paul Singer, The Koch Brothers aren't going to pay American workers a high salary, provide dental coverage, daycare, sick leave, maternity leave when they can simply move their interests to some Wage Slavery hellhole where the worker is paid pennies-a-day.

And now Mitt Romney wants to reverse the off-shore and bring the Wage Slavery back to America.

Of all the Right-Wing lies of this election cycle the We Built This! has to be the most shameless and sad. America succeeds because we work together. But Mitt Romney is a Successionist. He's made his Hundreds of Millions betting against America and undercutting Us.

The idea that millions of Americans would voluntarily vote away their rights and benefits and then cheer as they are stolen by Mitt Romney and quietly off-shored into his Cayman Islands dummy Corporations is just awful.

But, no matter what they call it, for they change the names every so often, Trickle-Down, Supply Side, or today's Austerity the goal is always the same: A revived Feudalist Economy in which the Capitalists have the Capital and the Poor have Poverty.

Mitt Romney and the Rich "Successionists"

The Romney's are Revolting! Mitt Romney has no Loyalty to the United States. This goes beyond him flying the standard of the Cayman Islands on his personal yacht. Willard Mitt Romney and the cadre of disgusting Plutocrats with whom he associates have no Loyalty to the United States, either.

"You have to have skin in the game. I’m not saying how much people should do. But we should all be part of the system.” - Stephen Schwarzman

What Schwarzman means is the poor need to pay taxes while the rich do not.

 Schwarzman is one of the most vocal Plutocrats who is hoping that Right-Wing dupes and conservative bigots will elect Mitt Romney and cement their stranglehold on the Nation. He, like the disgusting Successionists benefit from the Byzantine Tax Code the Republicans have enshrined. His tax rate is lower than Romney's 13%.

 Not only does the Plutocracy benefit from the "carried interest rule" by shifting their compensation to capital gains they don't pay the 6.2 percent Social Security tax or the 1.45 percent Medicare, since these regressive taxes disproportionately impact the Poor and Middle Class, as they apply only to wages and salaries.

 Thus, when President Obama proclaimed the Buffett Rule for taxing the obscene stolen wealth of Plutocrats, Stephen Schwarzman said, “It’s like when Hitler invaded Poland in 1939. It’s a war.” And he's Right. Mitt Romney and the 1% are engaged in Class War. The Plutocracy doesn't want to end the Government Spending. They just want to end Government spending on Poor folks.

 The Era of Noblesse oblige is over. The American worker is no one special to Mitt Romney, Schwarzman, the Koch Brothers, Kenneth C. Griffin, Paul Singer or Paul Ryan. The United States has no special allure for them.

While Paul Ryan was being treated to a $700 dollar Pinot Noir dinner date from $20 Billion dollar Hedge Fund "Manager" Clifford S. Asness, a American peasant had the gall to approach the Sagacious Deficit Guru and his Plutocratic Lordship. Asness, who correctly did not want to have his hands sullied with touching a poor person, declared, "Fuck Her"!

 The 1% is comprised of Sociopaths. They can not recognize the emotional states of other people. Nor do they care. The 1% aren't making anything, let alone "Creating Jobs".

They profit by crooked book keeping, legerdemain, mathematical equations, numbers games, and shifting billions of electronic digits from one account into another and then proclaim themselves hard-working capitalists. They are gamblers, thieves, poltroons and Vultures. They specialize in grifting.

 When asked what the difference between Hedge Fund Speculation and Gambling is Kenneth C. Griffin responded,

"I think there's a huge difference. Gambling is entertainment. Financial markets, what one often refers to as speculation, is really the force by which we move capital to the best and highest use."

The Rich don't believe in America. Wherever they can move "their" Capital to best benefit them is where they call home. Like Eduardo Saverin renouncing his Citizenship or Mitt Romney moving all his holdings into the Cayman Islands and Switzerland, the 1% hold themselves above any Nation-State. To Mitt Romney and the Rich Successionists Governments exist to keep their Filthy Lucre safe and their Workers in line.

Obama The Great

Obama the Great
His name struck fear into chicken hawk hearts of repub-licans
Obama the Great
Became a God amongst mortal men ~ Obama the Great, Somewhere In Time, Iron Maiden

President Obama is just like President Nixon. It's the latest slander on Obama promulgated by the pathetic Right.

Except you see Nixon resigned in disgrace, whereas Obama will go down as perhaps the GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER.

After having inherited the disgusting mess Bush/Cheney left the country in, when (or if) Obama is able to extricate the US from the Phony Wars on Terrorism for Profit and reigns in the Corporate Raiders of the American Economy who had Bush splay the American people out in front of them for repeated violations, in accordance with the Ronald Reagan Piss Down Your Back And Tell You It's Raining economic doctrine, and when Obama ensures the forgotten segment of American society have access to humane medical treatment and aren't cosigned to death by the Republicans Party; Obama will be accorded Top 3 status in the history of America.

But, further enhancing his legacy is the fact that perhaps only one other President had to deal with repeated death threats, not only from ignorant bigots, but in Obama's case from the leaders of the Pro Human Pain and Suffering Chicken Hawk Punk Ass Bitch Republican Party.

Punk Ass Bitch Republicans are actively inciting their followers the 9/12ers, Birtherites, Teabaggers, Get-a-Job Shouters, the "suddenly" fiscally conservatives to Insurrection and the assassination of Obama. Of course, being the cowards that they are, R. Limbaugh, Dick Cheney, Liz Cheney, Sean Hannity, Paul Broun, Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann and the rest of the flabby assed Punk Ass Bitches would claim they had no idea their constant vitriol, cries of Hitler, death panels, revolution and outright falsehoods and lies directed at Obama had anything to do with the attempted murder they hope and pray happens to Obama.

Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?

The brainwashed mentally unbalanced Right Wing Extremist Terrorists and their Leaders in the Republican Party have declared President Obama to be the Enemy. As such everything The ObamaHitler does is Evil and part of his Islamo- Nazi-Socialist plan of Indoctrination and America Destruction.

The President ObamaHitler wishes to address America's School Children? Watch Out! It's Marxist Propaganda! He'll beguile the American Children with his Dark Arts, a clear gaze, non-blood shot eyes and unstumbled speech will surely cause the Youth of America to turn on their parents and strangle them to death with the American Flag while flushing their AR-15's down the toilet.

Just listen to poor white mother Shanneen Barron fear the day the Obama will come into her children's lives and turn them into godless communists! Next Obama might have the temerity to look at her and her children!

Here's another typical ignorant mentally unbalanced Right Wing Extremist: Obama builds shadow organizations with socialists, terrorists and anti-Americans all with known history of subversion, and how in the world did they ever get by FBI screenings? Yes, John King from Gurnee how did they get by FBI screenings? Surely, Sean Hannity knows better than the FBI?

Ridiculous. The Right Wing Extremists declared they would not negotiate they are intractable and they want their country back. The ignorant Rage, the fear-monging, the put grandma to death rhetoric has moved a small vocal mentally unbalanced section of the American people into the position to Choose War and oppose Health Care. To be Pro-Torture and Anti-Stay-in-School...

However, perhaps Obama should not read anything to school kids, doesn't anyone else recall what happened the last time a President read* to School children?

*- I take that back I forgot Tipsey Canoe can't read...



Addendum
Of course, it is noteworthy Obama's short one time speech will surely turn America's Youth into Marxists immediately, but the hours of Sean Inshannity and R. Limbaugh declaring Obama to be evil aids the Terrorists and literally wants to destroy America have no influence and couldn't possibly be to blame for the Right Wing Extremist Terrorists who want to murder every Liberal in America, attack Holocaust Museums and ambush and assassinate Police Officers...

Times of Troubles

"Crime is crime is crime. It is not political." ~ Margaret Thatcher.

I highlight the above quote, not because I agree with the Thatcher, but because she was a stalwart friend and stood shoulder to shoulder with Saint Ronnie. Ronnie was the champion of the plutocrats and laid the rock solid foundation of the Economic Collapse of Tipsy Canoe with his Piss Down Your Back Voodoo Economics and is the reference for all Republicans today.

Thatcher's comments were made so the British government could allow Irish Resisters to starve to death in prison. Prisoners who were captured during The Troubles, a period of open warfare in Ireland.

2 Time Iraqi War Veteran Chuck Norris has announced thousands of cell groups will be united around the country in solidarity over the concerns for our nation. But Norris, Tea-bagging protesters and a youtube video by a "Marine" do not make a strong or popular movement. But even though I hope these are just the fringe elements, Frank Schaeffer highlights the comments by Norris may not just be some weird aberrations.

Norris is a champion Car-ate expert, but he and others are given a platform by those who would disavow any call to arms out one side of their mouth while engaging in the most vile and inflammatory rhetoric which hopes to bring about a visceral reaction amongst those whom they hate, control and abuse (the poor) but wish to use in order to keep the other half of the poor in check and divided.

Republicans are working for failure. Obama must fail so they may rule. Of course, the counter by the group has been Well you Democrats wanted Bush to fail, too! Nee Ner Nee Ner Nee Ner! As Dave Neiwert notes about Failure:

It would be one thing if Republicans were simply warning that Obama's stimulus plans were doomed to failure. We'd understand that. It certainly would mirror how we felt about the Iraq war: we believed it was a doomed enterprise that would not only cost far more in human lives than anything that might possibly be gained from it, but would actually worsen the conditions for terrorism it purportedly meant to combat. We recognized that Bush's rosy scenarios might come to pass, but we doubted it deeply -- and said so, and rightly.

And as Mahablog notes in When Failure is an Option: The Right "do not... see a difference between expressing the opinion that X is a bad idea and wanting X to fail."

From 09/12/2001 to 01/19/2009 disagreeing with the President was wrong-headed at best and at worst emboldened our enemies. However, dissent and the threat of civil war are now the highest form of patriotism. Before we had the simple conjectures to browbeat those who were against the destructive policies of Tipsy Canoe;

Supporting the Troops = Supporting the Mission = Supporting the President,
Not Supporting the President = Not Supporting the Troops + Treason.

Now supporting Obama is aiding the descent of America into a Islamo-Marxist Communist Dictatorship. And all sorts of things become acceptable to defeat that threat, especially when Republican Senator David Vitter calls the Obama government a "Dictaorship".

And so the election of Obama has given new vigor to an old enemy. The False Patriots standing up to denounce the excesses of the government. These men came to the forefront during the Clinton presidency and decryed all things government especially the Executive Branch. To them the government was coming for you and the revolution was at hand.

But, when a Republican "won", by a 5-4 vote, the White House, the rhetoric slowed, the furor subsided, the anger abated. The Southern Poverty Law Center noted by the Summer of 2001 there were 194 anti government Patriot groups a drop from the high of 858 in 1996. Why? Why did freedom lovers sit back when Tipsy Canoe and his Aides were crafting powers to curb laws, supressing the consitution, using the government to bilk Trillions, starting wars and keeping US safe, except for the whole 9/11 thing...

Well, the anger is back. Anger which began prior to Obama even taking office and which bubbled over by the Toxic Commentators declaring Obama equals the End of America. Recall how this was exacerbated when Republican VP candidate Sarah Hot and Palin and McCain spokeswoman Nancy Pfoentauer declared some parts of America are Real and "Pro"-America. The "Pro"-tectors of Eric Rudolph, who blew up women and abortion clinics, and found refugee amongst the Patriots in the Appalachians.

And now the Revolution is once again nigh.

But, the history of the English Occupation of Ireland and The Troubles is an apt comparison and should provide a blueprint for Norris, The Birthers and all the False Patriots of the consequences of their toxic rhetoric. Do they really want the bitter fruits which shall arise from planting the seeds of revolution? A militarized police force, captured persons being allowed to starve to death in prison, occupation by the military, outright street warfare, car bombs, indiscriminate shootings, a Kent State or a Waco or an Oklahoma City Bombing every month or worse in American cities?

But, the most terrible and most poisonous result coming from a call for armed resistance and open fighting would be the destruction of the Ideal The Founding Fathers crafted, a peaceful transition of power. Which once lost might never be found again.

Center-Right Chrisitian Nation

The election of Barack Obama has caused the Folks at Fox News and elsewhere to declare America is a Center Right country. It is utter nonsense to apply such a vacuous generalization to individuals. No two individuals hold the exact same political beliefs. The pernicious genius of the current structure is it has shoe-horned individuals into one of two camps. Often causing people to swallow hard and vote "for the lesser of two evils".

Similarly since a very high percentage of Americans identify themselves as christian, America is often referred to as a "christian" nation. I suppose if one lumps the First Baptists, Catholics, Mormons, Methodists, Armenian Orthodoxy and all the other branches together it could be considered true. The problem is no two individuals hold the same religious beliefs but for the sake of civil society and friendships they often, but not always, overlook scripitura disagreements.

Well, The Founding Fathers were not christians. They were deists. (100%)

My own mind is my own church. ~ Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason.

Nor were they politically right.

They founded the United States as a Feudal Oligarchy controlled mainly by the landed interests. It did incorporate the Platonic ideas of meritocracy that occasionally in the merchant class and very rarely in the fields were the lower classes toiled would be found a man of talent who could rise into the quasi-aristocracy.

James Madison recognized America was founded where, "the rights of persons were subjected to those of property. The poor were sacrificed to the rich."

Madison and others since they were well versed in the classics, also understood Aristole's warning:

Aristocracy degenerates into oligarchy, when the few, who are rich, govern the state as best suits the interests of their avarice and ambition; and a republic degenerates into a democracy when the mass who are poor, make the gratification of their own passions the only rule of their administration.

James Madison fully expected class struggle between rich and poor. And the history of America is testament to this struggle. The last 8 years have been a phase of utter dominance by the plutocracy.

I love to read Dailykos and FreeRepublic

because when someone breaks with political orthodoxy they are subjected to the Shame Circle.

This is what it must have been like to be a member of a religious community over the last 2000 years. If you dare flex your brain, think and possibly disagree with the entrenched power and accepted dogma the group surrounds you and ridicules you. No wonder it's taking so long for man to break free of the shackles of religion and enhanced tribalism (a.k.a. nationalism).

Donald Trump says Bush is bad and should have been impeached. And even though Trump endorses McCain, the supermericans at FreeRepublic must punish him for his heretical views on Our Glorious Bush who singlehanded defeated Terrorism forever! Trump must be brought back into the fold on W. He must be insulted personally, he must be insulted on physical appearance.

Christopher Hitches, a pro-Iraq War, decided anti-islamic to the extreme gentleman who champions reason and hates religion dares to point out Sarah Tall and Palin has no clothes and is roundly chastised. He is a drunk! We hate him! Boo!

Laura Ingraham one of the ideological descendants of Phyllis Schlafly declares "She can't believe" Hitchens would break from the Orthodoxy and vote for Obama!

This isn't a right or left thing it's a power and conformity issue. Both sides know they have listened to the true prophets and the other side has listened to false ones. One doesn't dare differ.

However, I guess it's comforting No Congressman has declared there should be trials for those who dare to stand up. I mean it's not like those people who hold different views are Anti-American or something....

I agree with Sean Hannity

Everyone with bizarre radical religious backing should be excluded from the office of President of the United States.

Jon Hagee wants a Nuclear "showdown" with Iran, Hagee knows god's mind he knows all about god's political positions on US immigration and our foreign policy with Israel. And he's deduced from years of "study" the Catholic Church is the Great Whore of Babylon.

And recall If you don't Vote for McCain, You'll Suffer A Hurricane

And McCain's "Spiritual Guide" was Rod Parsley until McCain had to disassociate himself when Parsely stated America was "founded with the intention of seeing this false religion (islam) destroyed".

And then there's Sarah Tall and Palin. Her Witch Doctor and the Wasilla Armageddon of God... Of course, it's not like Sarah Palin is"palling around" with Secessionists*...

Oh wait... I never hear Sean-o talk about these incidents! Why oh Why?

I deplore this game. But, why does Hannity attack Obama about Jeremiah Wright? I don't know...

*- the secession thing is a +plus+ for Palin. I'd be happy if she was to go back to Alaska and declare their independence from the US.
