Helloween!

In the Streets on Halloween
The Spirits will Arise
Make your choice, it's Hell or Paradise
Ahhhhhhhhh - It's Halloween ~ Halloween, Helloween

Republicans love Halloween because it's right before election time when they can continue to Trick the Voters of America and enjoy the Treat of funneling Trillions of Dollars to their Corporate Masters who then allow the Republicans to siphon off Billions of American Taxpayer Dollars to themselves, their families and their Cronies.

But, while the Trillions in Treats would be bad enough the Tricks they play in getting Voters riled up at the thought of food stamps and decent medical care for the poor is down right vicious.

Where is the Conservative and Republican Rush to enlist?

I haven't heard about the mad rush by Young Republicans (YR's) or Young Conservatives (YC's) to fill the slots needed by ISAF Commander General Stanley McChrystal to win in Afghanistan. The YC's resistance and fighting here on American Colleges is too important and the YR's are too busy fighting here on the home front against Islamo-Hitler to finish the job Superhero Bush and Ditherless Cheney began 8 years ago. Or maybe all the slots were filled by ethnic minorities while they DeLay'ed and by other Americans in tough financial straits or lacking health coverage?

Well, you can't expect the gutless flabby Chicken Hawk Punk Ass Bitch Republicans to actually fight! They merely goad people on and leave the fighting to be done by others.

Perhaps, secretly, the Chicken Hawks agree with US State Department Official Matthew Hoh (and former Marine) who resigned his position in Zabul Province because of opposition to continuing the Afghan War. Hoh stated in his resignation letter, "I find it specious the reasons we ask for bloodshed and sacrifice form our young men and women in Afghanistan" and "I do not believe any military force has ever been tasked with complex , opaque and Sisyphean mission as the U.S. military has received in Afghanistan." But, Chicken Hawk Punk Ass Bitch Republicans will publicly call for more troops and more war if they think it will help their political aspirations all the while harboring no intention of ever putting their pasty asses in the fire.

Rough stuff excerpted from The Usual Suspect at Rucksack to Backpack: Walk With Me In Hell

To my ungrateful generation,

This world is full of people who demand respect without earning it. That's a commodity that I can no longer afford to give away freely. If I haven't earned someone's respect by now, then I never will, and that's fine. The more I think about it, the more I realize that you have NOT earned mine. Thought you had it for free? I can't believe you're still alive when some of the best men I'll ever know died in someone else's country. As far as I'm concerned, this ain't your land anymore. We earn our keep. You'll always be below me now, not because of what you haven't done, but because of how you conduct yourself despite what you have not done. Don't dare try to cheapen what we go through. Come experience it for yourself.

Roll the dice, take a chance card. Spin the wheel, sit for a spell and let the Russian Roulette begin. Let's do some time in the meat grinder together, THEN you can open your mouth. Until then, you're cattle with an inflated ego and unfounded opinions. Empty, vapid, soulless byproducts of bad TV and shitty rap music.

There's more via the link. But, that's a coarse hard bitten assessment of the hidden costs of war which Punk Ass Bitch Chicken Hawk Republicans conveniently leave out of the ledger of bills due. Hopefully, The Usual Suspect doesn't let his experiences exact too much of a toll on his soul. So I bid him remember those Thespians of Great Renown and their view on (The Bright Side of) Life:

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life... ~ The Bright Side of Life, Monty Python

Operation Yellow Elephant: Not as tough as his name and mouth imply

Racist Limbaugh Hoist by his own Petard

or more likely in the case of that bloated flabby sack of blubber, Hoist by his own Glenn Bec de Corbin.

So, Racist Limbaugh castigated President Obama for a Thesis on the Founding Fathers and the US Constitution. Racist Limbaugh breathlessly called Obama "a little boy" and with righteous indignation Racist Limbaugh declared Obama had "utter disdain" for the Constitution.

Of course, the whole Thesis is false, a made up post by a blogger who so hates(?) President Obama he crafted a fake blog post to show how bad President Obama is...

This doesn't matter to Racist Limbaugh, because even if the whole story is false, he can rightly say I know Obama thinks it.

Racist Limbaugh then went on the offensive and declared his actions were necessary because such falsehoods where attributed to him in his terminated NFL ownership bid. Limbaugh is a classic projectionist. He ascribes his misdeeds to his political opponents because he assumes everyone is as deceitful and untrustworthy as he is...

Racist Rush, everyone knows you are a bloated bigoted racist who would physically whip Obama if he could get away with it. We know that's what you think but not because we are lying scum like you or the Punk Ass Bitches who make up and support the Republican Party but because there exist actual documented quotes in which Limbaugh tried to obscure his racism under the guise of the media is to blame for wanting a black quarterback to do well. (From Think Progress; Stunningly Racist Punk Ass Bitch Republican Steve King can't find anything racist from Limbaugh. And I couldn't find any military service from Steve King, despite King being born in 1949 and the Vietnam War still being fought when he turned 18...)

But, the pathetic Right bewailed the MSM and declared they would forever boycott the NFL when Limbaugh was dropped in his bid for ownership of the St. Louis Rams. They beseeched Limbaugh to sue every news organization which used the fabricated quotes. Of course, using falsehoods to castigate your political opponents is wrong and indefensible. But, now that Racist Limbaugh is guilty of such actions there will be ZERO posts on the Punk Ass Bitch Conservative blogs declaring Racist Rush to be wrong. Because the Punk Ass Bitches who make up and support the Republican Party are rank hypocrites who will believe any and all lies about President Obama.

For instance here's my new pal, Bloviating Zeppelin's take on the issue, I therefore give Mr Limbaugh an easy pass. Next.

Bloviating Zeppelin made himself known to me when he chastised me for not having Life Experience. If the type of Life Experience he's talking about leads me to be a rank hypocrite defender of lying racists like he is I'll pass...

Update:
Here is a link to cartoonish buffoon Michael Ledeen's complete dreck of writing on Obama's Thesis, in which he cavalierly demands Maybe instead of fuming about words that Rush Limbaugh never uttered, the paladins of the free press might ask the president about words that he did write. Even more shamelessly the dishonest Ledeen defends his deliberate slander by claiming It worked because it’s plausible. It convinced Ledeen because he is such an unthinking zealot and wanted it to be true he'd believe any lies told about Obama especially the ones Ledeen tells himself.

Read some of the comments from the ragged bunch of Birtherites declaring this proof of Obama's Marxist Islamo-Nazism. The blithering Punk Ass Bitches on the Right had their "minds" made up for them and are willing to believe everything which confirms their blind ignorant hatred of Obama even when it's complete lies of Fox News...

I completely forget that Michael Ledeen has zero credibility or bravery for this doctrinal statement: "Every ten years or so, the United States needs to pick up some small crappy little country and throw it against the wall, just to show the world we mean business." ~ As relayed by flabby mush butt Chicken Hawk Coward Jonah Goldberg, April 23, 2002.

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.

The Girl from Georgia (USSR)

Angel of Death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Sadistic, surgeon of demise
Sadist of the noblest blood ~ Angel of Death, SLAYER

The Republican Party and it's frenzied supporters, the 9/12ers, Birtherites, Teabaggers, Get-a-Job Shouters, have seemingly ingested the novel and film The Boys from Brazil and thus have been transformed into an unrecognizable conglomeration of madmen who scream and yell, talk real tough and make hysterical demonstrations of anger but despite their convictions that President Obama is Islamo-Hitler they lack courage and are thus nothing but Punk Ass Bitches.

Enter the Taitz, The Girl from Georgia (USSR)*. Orly Taitz has convinced the Republican Party that Obama is one of titular characters in the novel and film, a genetic clone of Adolf Hitler.

Watch the battle scene between two greats, Gregory Peck and Laurence Olivier, and Peck's prophetic revelation of Obama's true heritage as the Islamo-Hitler of the 2000s.

But, now watch as Punk Ass Bitch Republican Jean Schmidt tells an angry Birthrite accuser she agrees with her and not with the American courts.

But, while the Party of Ronald Reagan has embraced and championed Taitz, a child of the evil empire; a Soviet Citizen like Orly Taitz would never be taken seriously unless there was a constant stream of invective being leveled against the President. A ceaseless river of false witness which has flowed from the mouths of Fox News. Whether it be one of the Isms; fascism, communism, socialism, marxism or Obama's desire to destroy America or kowtowing to every foreign dictator; no lie is too unbelievable, no slander too ridiculous, no charge too outlandish for Fox News.



So, enamored and beguiled by a godless Communist Soviet Agent, the Punk Ass Bitch Republicans and their brain washed Self-Appointed Chicken Hawk He-Man America Defenders have allowed themselves to made fools of as Taitz paraded ridiculous Kenyan Birth Certificate forgeries and outlandish lawsuits which when tossed out by American judges merely serve to strengthen their resolve and inflame their fanaticism.

*- Orly Taitz is actually from the Moldavian SSR, the other side of the Black Sea but I needed the Georgian SSR for the alliteration.

Update:
Ha ha ha the NBC series Night Court had a premonition about Orly Taitz in the episode The Game Show from 1989. Dan Fielding summed up Orly succinctly 20 years ago, “Well, I have pieced it together, and it seems I was kidnapped and drugged by… Soviet agents."

New Corps Old Corps

'Cause there's nothing at all
Except the space in-between
Finding out what you're called
And repeating your name ~ Ruby, Kaiser Chiefs

There are only two servicemen, killed in Afghanistan, Chicken Hawk War Proponents can name, Pat Tillman and Joshua Bernard.

Joshua Bernard was the Marine whose tragic death was seen by Americans safely ensconced in their homes, office buildings and EIB Studios because the Associated Press callously defied Bernard's fathers' request to not show the photographs of his death.

But, while the Pro Human Pain and Suffering Punk Ass Bitch Republicans and Conservatives became enraged at the showing of this Marines' death it was typically for the wrong reasons. To Punk Ass Bitch Rightwingers Bernard's death is necessary because once Bernard is dead flabby crap filled REMFpublicans can besmirch his name by co-opting him.

"So the words about noble deaths and sacred blood and honor and such are all put into dead lips by grave robbers and fakes who have no right to speak for the dead."

Well, Marine Corps 1st Sgt John Bernard (retired), the father of Joshua Bernard and perhaps the only man who can speak for him wants a change in the RoE (Rules of Engagement) in the Afghan AO before more Marines and Soldiers, used as police officers and nation-builders, are killed.

The new RoE were put into affect by General McChrystal back in July when he took over the ISAF AO. His RoE calls for breaking off of contact with the enemy when said engagement threatens civilian Afghans and limits to the use of close air support (CAS) and indirect fire (arty).

Back then Never-Ending War Supporters and Punk Ass Bitch Rightwingers were skeptical of McChrystal's plan to try and limit civilian deaths. However, when McChrystal went public in his request for more forces in theater anti-Obama blogs, like Professor of Life supported McChrystal as if his word about the Afghan AO was inspired by Douglas MacArthur.

The Punk Ass Bitches of the Right would no doubt attack 1st Sgt Bernard if they could because all they care about is opposing Obama and anyone who gets in the way of the Righteous Anti-Obama War is against them. So, most likely, if any flabby Chicken Hawk Fox News Chicken Hawk becomes aware they will attempt to co-opt and use 1st Sgt Bernard to attack Obama.

The price we are paying for the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are not just measured in the tragic death of Americans, like Joshua Bernard, or the money stolen by Xe and other Military Industrial Complex Corporations but in the millions of small hidden fees extracted by warfare on the bodies, minds and souls of the survivors.

Trash Can I Stan

But now -- why, we have got into a mess, a quagmire from which each fresh step renders the difficulty of extrication immensely greater. I'm sure I wish I could see what we were getting out of it, and all it means to us as a nation. ~ Mark Twain, Returning Home, New York World, London, 10/6/1900

Any deployment of Combat Troops also includes the follow on support troops, news sites broke a story about the additional 13,000 troops Obama approved for deployment to Afghanistan corollary to the 21,000 Troop increase in March. But, this is not an Obama Apology post.

I'd like to know what War proponents think we are achieving by continuing to occupy the area and increasing the number of US service members in the Afghanistan AO. The Unites States is now in the position to defend Hamid Karzai, called disdainfully the Mayor of Kabul because of the limited scope of his authority, and his corrupt government.

Karzai's August election will only be accepted by some of the powerful Afghan Warlords if they are allowed to have a stake in the new government. This will include giving power to the likes of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar who was responsible for the fighting which destroyed Kabul (and divided the country allowing the Taliban to move in) and possibly assisted Bin Laden in escaping from Tora Bora into Pakistan when Bush purposefully allowed Bin Laden to escape rather than let Delta kill/capture him.

More importantly the US Troops are going to be occupying, policing and nation building in Afghanistan for years. And Counter Insurgencies have a nasty habit of being decades long struggles of alternating low and medium conflict.

From The NATO Afghanistan 2009 Report: Decades of conflict, a nearly non-existent national infrastructure, high levels of illiteracy, endemic poverty and chronic underdevelopment place Afghanistan 174th out of 178 countries on the UN Human Development Index. The Bonn Process provided for a Constitution,an elected President and Parliament and the beginnings of a functioning government. In early 2006, the Afghan Government and the International Community came together in London to develop a strategy for Afghanistan’s recovery. The result was the ANDS which aims to create and develop effective national, provincial and district government institutions capable of delivering basic services. It is a long-term and challenging task that has produced mixed results so far.

The question is: Is it worth it for the US to send more and more men into the AO and have those men return in flag draped coffins?

Getting and Letting (Getting In, Getting Bin Laden, Getting Out, Letting the "Afghans" figure out the rest) would seem to have been a better choice. That plan may have failed and Afghanistan could have turned into another Somalia, or the Taliban could have reclaimed power or Gulbuddin Hekmatyar and Burhanuddin Rabbani could have restarted their battle for Kabul or Heroin Drug Lords could have turned the nation into a new Golden Triangle Drug Empire or any number of terrible futures could have happened.

But what we, The US, and ISAF forces are doing now is defending an Administration, labelled by General McChrystal full of "rampant government corruption", who warns that the additional Troops he wants may not stem the Taliban's resurgence. And then it's only a short step to when the locals begin to see Karzai's government as illegitimate, the Guerilla forces as legitimate and our forces as Occupiers.

Of course, the Warfare Proponents who exert massive control over the US Government want continued war and continued transfer of wealth to their coffers. And they don't care about dead Marines and the decades long angst of everyday pains which come home when those who live.

Columbus Day Health Scare

The Republicans (and Democrat traitors) have their Corporate Insurance Masters orders to provide the American People with the same level of Health Care Columbus provided the Arawak upon landing in the Caribbeen, i.e. slavery and death. And like Columbus, Republicans make official declarations (about Health Care) which are complete lies.

Columbus's report to the Court in Madrid was extravagant. Because of Columbus's exaggerated report and promises, his second expedition was given seventeen ships and more than twelve hundred men. The aim was clear: slaves and gold.
[T]hey ordered all persons fourteen years or older to collect a certain quantity of gold every three months.
When it became clear that there was no gold left, the Indians were taken as slave labor on huge estates, known later as encomiendas. They were worked at a ferocious pace, and died by the thousands. ~ From Howard Zinn's work, A People's History of the United States

Insurance Compaines don't provide coverage. They will take your premiums but if you actually need to use their "coverage" the first thing the company will do is deny your claims and if that doesn't work for them, Insurance Companies simply drop you.

From a Washington Times story: Guardian Life Insurance Co. executive called high-cost patients such as Mr. Pearl "dogs" that the company could "get rid of." Legally barred from discriminating against individuals who submit large claims, the New York-based insurer simply canceled lines of coverage altogether. Guardian, a 150-year-old mutual company, reported profits of $437 million last year, a 50 percent increase over $292 million in 2007.

Insurance Companies make money by pretending to provide you coverage but if you are actually sick or become sick they will drop your insurance. Republicans delight in Americans working themselves to death in pursuit of Corporate profits and then being denied care. Its what the Republicans are striving to achieve for their masters. Republicans delight in hating you and watching you die.

Having been stationed at Swamp Lejeune North Carolina, one of the things I learned about was the quality of the ground water. Camp Lejeune (that's a US Marine Corps base for the Chicken Hawks out there) has had decades worth of chemicals leach into the ground and metals from ammo launched into the hinterland from various weapon systems. Because of that the groundwater was contaminated, and one of the effects has been a spike of Male Marines, who were stationed at Lejeune from the 1960's through the 1980's getting Breast Cancer. Male Breast Cancer is rare, extremely rare.

But, while these Marines get coverage from the VA (a government run option), Insurance companies would view this as a "pre-existing" condition and would deny them coverage. America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) blames Veterans for rising prices, just like the Republican Party and The Bush Administration:

The AHIP study shows that nearly half of this apparent increase in Medicare expenditures can be explained by controlling for the use of services received through the Veterans Administration (VA) or at military facilities.

AHIP and Republicans want Veterans to die because as David S. Chu the Pentagon's Undersecretary of Personal and Readiness, under President George W. Bush, said, "The amounts have gotten to the point where they are hurtful. They are taking away from the nation's ability to defend itself."

Like gangsters and criminals, AHIP the national association representing nearly 1,300 member companies providing health insurance coverage to more than 200 million Americans, brazenly threatened Congress and the American people that they will simply raise prices if any real Health Care Reform occurs.

Eventually, if Republicans are allowed to, they will help Health "Insurance" Companies simply take your money and disavow every disease as a pre-consisting condition and allow all Americans to die.

Toyota, Republicans favorite Cars

Real Americans love Chevys and Fords, Punk Ass Bitch Republicans love Toyotas and other foreign cars. Why? Because they hate American Workers. Republicans want American Workers to work hard while young and when you get old die quickly. That's what Republicans want for Americans to work themselves to death. This is why Republicans are always against Unions and have been fighting against Health Care all of 2009.

Unions, like the UAW, and a more fair Health Care helps Americans, Republicans are against everything which helps extend the lives of the poor and middle class in America. Foreign Auto Makers, especially with automotive plants in the South are allowed to pay cut throat capitalism wages and disbar unions while receiving US Government Subsidies and tax incentives to treat American workers unfairly.

Republican Richard Shelby of Alabama ensured Mercedes -Benz received $253 Million USC, Honda $158 Million USC and Hyundai $234 million USC tax breaks for building plants in in his state, Republican scum Bob Cooker gave Volkswagon $577 million USC for a factory in Tennessee and "Mississippi paid $284 million for a new Toyota plant; Kia got $324 million from Georgia. Texas had to fork over only $133 million for Toyota's Tundra plant in San Antonio, while Tennessee gave $197.6 million so Nissan would move its American headquarters to Nashville."

Republicans use the power of the Government and these tax "breaks" to break and destroy the UAW which doesn't vote for Punk Ass Bitch Republicans.

But, this also means that sacrifices have to be made this year the Republican Party and their Punk Ass Bitch Conservative fanatics decided General Motors was to be allowed to wither and die. Ostensibly, the Punks on the Right declared because GM made inferior products and held aloft Worldwide #1 Car Maker Toyota as the paragon of True Car Making Genius.

And Toyota Mythical Awesomeness is falling apart. All makes and models of Toyotas are being recalled for a variety of reasons.

Late 90's and early 00's Toyota Tundras and Tacomas are failing apart from rust and corrosion.

Dealing with rusted pickup frames and the subsequent fallout is nothing new for the Japanese automaker. About 1.4 million Tacomas were involved in rust-related defects that caused the automaker to make concessions last year to customers. That year, Toyota agreed to buy back Tacoma pickups from 1995 to 2000 with frames rusted so badly that they were beyond repair.

More frighteningly than your vehicle failing apart around you from Rust is the floor mat accelerator sticking problem, where pedals become trapped under floor mats, causing vehicles to continue to speed up after drivers lifted their foot off the pedal. Toyota issued a recall for the following 4 million models:

• 2007 – 2010 Camry
• 2005 – 2010 Avalon
• 2004 – 2009 Prius
• 2005 – 2010 Tacoma
• 2007 – 2010 Tundra

Defects like the floor mat/accelerator issue or rust problem "could" be excused as planning or poor oversight concerning the manufacturing process.

But, completely inexcusable would be the deliberate destruction and concealment of evidence and obstruction of justice by Toyota into the rollover deaths, which

Dimitrios Biller, a former Toyota corporate lawyer involved in the rollover cases, contends in his lawsuit that the Japanese automaker's executives "made every effort" to quash investigations from 2004 through 2007. Biller alleges Toyota TM destroyed data.

And of course, Toyota lost $1.7 Billion in 2008 and lost $6.9 Billion(!!!) in the first quarter of 2009.

Yet a Toyota Avalon was the vehicle Republican Punk Ass Bitch and Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney longingly pinned for when he penned his magnificent Op-Ed Let Detroit Go Bankrupt, writing:

Ford, for example, needs to cut $2,000 worth of features and quality out of its Taurus to compete with Toyota’s Avalon. Of course the Avalon feels like a better product

Romney further blamed the American worker for not dying quickly enough for Romney's tastes,

First, their huge disadvantage in costs relative to foreign brands must be eliminated. That means new labor agreements to align pay and benefits to match those of workers at competitors like BMW, Honda, Nissan and Toyota. Furthermore, retiree benefits must be reduced.

Romney wants American workers to make less and die quickly after they have used up their youth. And he hopes for the destruction of Detroit and the elimination of jobs and retiree benefits. Of course, Romney's worked for Government and never had to worry about where his paycheck or benefits are coming from or their elimination.

Punk Ass Bitch Republicans and Conservatives like and protect Foreign Auto Makers because they hate Americans and want you to die.

Update:
I forgot to include the famous Who Could Ask For Anything More Toyota Ad Campaign. That sentiment is precisely the Republican Party mantra and intent for the poor and middle class. The Republican Elite and Corporatist Establishment, "cannot survive without the obedience and loyalty of millions of people who are given small rewards to keep the system going". How dare the poor and middle class, who have been given so much Trickle Down wealth demand more, be content with the "small rewards" from the Republican table.

Bill O'Reilly Science is Fascism!

Professor Richard Dawkins, "If a Particular Scientific Theory doesn't work do some better Science...

Bill O'Reilly, "NO!!!"



Professor Dawkins' reaction (at 4:11) to Bill O'Reilly declaration Science is Fascism will make you laugh. I guarantee it.

But, in O'Reilly's defense since Creationists have proved Biology and Evolution, a specific scientific field, are Nazism, a specific Fascist Ideology, it is a logical syllogistic conclusion then that Science, in general, is Fascism, in general.

White jesus makes me sad...

Obama: End the Wars and Earn Your Prize

While Obama hasn't done anything as cool as invent Dynamite, Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

I hope the Award is earned by Obama and he pulls us out of Afghanistan and Iraq. If Obama is able to extricate us from both of Bush's Wars of Money Transfer he'd have go down as the greatest president. Because despite the rhetoric of the Right the goal of Bush's Wars has always been transferring Trillions of Dollars into the coffers of those who profit on Death and Destruction and who Control the Federal Government.

I always felt The Strategy of Getting (Getting In, Getting Bin Laden, Getting Out) would have been a better choice.

I'm optimistic but only cautiously so... I hope Obama is strong enough to get us out of the Wars, in which, Bush and his Controllers treated Soldiers as RISK gameboard pieces. Little wooden tokens easily placed on the map and easily removed when killed.

But, besides the cost in dollars and more heart-wrenchingly in lives, it's the millions of little pains and evils which accompany the survivors home and are suffered by their families. Because that's the true cost of wars; the suicides, the divorces, the arguing, the fights, the drinking, the drugs, the small crimes the shattered dreams, the pain...

Update:
Remember how the hatred for Obama isn't based on Race? Well, yes it is: Flabby Chicken Hawk Coward Jonah Goldberg asks if Kayne West could attend the ceremony.

Erick Erickson of Red State, who would rather disband Police Forces* than allow them to Unionize, declares the Noble Prize has an affirmative action quota.

*- This needs expanding. About 130 Macon Georgia Police Officers want to unionize. For such temerity, Erickson stated: I’m thinking I’ll have the City Attorney draft me legislation to dissolve the police department and contract with the Sheriff to provide public safety services. Erick Erickson hates people and wants them to die. In that regard he is a typical Right Winger Punk Ass Bitch.

Dylan Ratigan Steals From My Blog

Last September I wrote:

What we have is a lousy kleptocracy were members of the government collude with industry and work hand in hand in order to ensure Socialism for them and cut-throat Capitalism for the rest of the plebeians, Profits are Privatised and Losses are Socialized.

Well, while that's true, the Corporate Powers are the stronger members of the Kleptocracy and dictate orders to their marionettes in Government. The Punk Ass Bitch Republican Party take their orders and carry them out faithfully.

Any way MSNBC New Guy, Dylan Ratigan highlights (video at Crooks and Liars) how Corporate Communists (his phrase) have control over Washington and use their position to Socialize their losses and Privatize their Profits. Ratigan states, "a system that takes resources from the citizenry and redistributes it to a tiny elite."

Right Wing Punk Ass Bitches like to claim the Free Market and Corporations would produce excellent products if left alone from the evil Government's interference. Well, it's not true. if left alone without Government Regulations, persons at various levels in Corporations will get away with whatever they can and would passively or actively allow Americans to die from the creation of their products; By doing shit like this:

BP acknowledged that for the last six years its Whiting refinery violated federal pollution limits on benzene.

Federal regulators say BP PLC violated the Clean Air Act by making modifications at its Indiana oil refinery along Lake Michigan to process Canadian crude without the proper permit. The EPA said in November the modifications caused "significant increases" in sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, particulate matter and carbon monoxide emitted from the refinery.

And at the top CEO's, who get Billions from the Government, lobby to undermine and de-teeth legislation designed to curb their voracious appetite for profit over people.

Afghanistan = A Bag of Smushed Assholes

“If I knew exactly what the mission was, probably so, but I don’t.” ~ Sergeant Christopher Hughes when asked if the mission was worthwhile.

Bush handed Obama a shit-filled leaky plastic bag of a mismangled war in Afghanistan. Deaths have been on the rise the past two years, including the cold blooded murder of two American Soldiers by an Afghan National Police Officer.

With COIN and most guerrilla wars the campaign remains at a low simmer for years with the occasional flare up. The Insurgents only real goal is to remain alive. They do not have to conduct any operations and the occasional successful attack on the occupying force is enough to bolster their recruitment or morale while trying to provoke the occupiers into a poor heavy handed response. Insurgencies end when the occupier leaves or begins colonization of the region.

If an occupier does colonize an area the attempt can become a mass migration and displacement (The Magyars into European Hungarian plain, the Normans into Sicily, The Europeans into the Americas, The English into Australia),
Or succeed for a few years or centuries (The Berbers into Spain, the French into Indochina, the Chinese into Tibet, The English in India) and then become reversed and the conquerors leave behind a sizable minority.

Most of the recent extended 4GW conflicts of the post-world war 2 world stem from repeated colonization attempts, e.g. Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and The Balkans.

Afghanistan has always been a crossroads of empire and warfare, especially the last 30 years; following the failed Soviet attempts at subjugation of the region, the Warlord battles of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, Burhanuddin Rabbani, Abdul Dostum, the Taliban gained control and waged campaigns against the ethnic minorites of Tajik, Uzbek and Hazara in the country, until the US and Coalition forces invaded in response to the Terror Attacks of 9/11.

Any way, 8 years later, I don't know what the mission in Afghanistan is today and the Troops in Country don't know either. I don't think Obama knows either. It's not as if we're trying to diminsh the ridiculous growth of poppies flooding the world with Heroin, but, we have set up a Government, which conducts Bush-esque fair democratic elections, killed thousands of Al Qaeda terrorists, Taliban supporters and innocents, and brought back corporations to the region and revitalized infrastructure during the 7+ years we and ISAF occupied the area. Sooooo, now why are we staying? And what would be the point in adding 50,000 more troops as General McChrystal requests?

"You can always hear the people who are willing to sacrifice somebody else's life. They're plenty loud and they talk all the time"... Uber-Patriots Sean Hannity and R. Limbaugh are attacking Obama on his strategy in Afghanistan. They demand to know his plans, they demand he listen to General McChrystal! The pure unmitigated gall, the lack of compunction of these Chicken Hawks is what I've come to expect from the cowardly Punk Ass Bitches of the Right.

There was never a word against Bush's utter colossal failures, gross negligence and incompetence in fucking over America, Afghanistan and Iraq. His failures were points of pride for these Toxic Pukes. They spent the entire time attacking Democrats and adhering to the IOKIYAR mantra. Obama has no idea what to do with the Afghan War but to his credit is taking time to meet with Advisors and analyze the Bag of Smushed Assholes he inherited from Bush. But to the Punk Ass Bitch Conservatives and REMFpublicans Obama's to blame for not immediately doubling down and supporting the mantra of War Today, War Tomorrow, War Forever!

Republican Special Pleading or IOKIYAR

I saw the Steppenwolf Production Fake about the discovery of Piltdown Man and the uncovering of the Hoax. I won't divulge the details of the play it advances a theory previously propounded and expanded by Steppenwolf Ensemble member Eric Simonson.

The over arching story contains episodes in 1914 and 1953 and plays them as Duality, the actors have dual roles and the themes of loss of loved family members to Wars and scientific theories and tests are explored. An amusing and sly allusion to god as an old man in the sky with a beard while a portrait of an elder bearded Charles Darwin hung above the stage was nice. The play was well done by Simonson and the acting was generally good. The only minor quibble being the strange vaguely Spanish-esque Inigo Montoya accent affected by the understudy who stepped in to portray French priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.

However, the key to the Piltdown Man Hoax was the Special Pleading many people engaged in during it's four decade debacle. Despite the ignorant claims of creationists, Piltdown Man was never accepted by the entire scientific community as a proper fossil. Those who did accept it as a missing evolutionary link did so despite evidence to the contrary and by using Special Pleading.

Which brings me to the State of the Nation. The Last 8 years were a Debacle of a sham presidency run by incompetent boob and warped and cowardly old man. It left the US with two wars, neither won despite protestations to the contrary, and an economic nightmare built upon the edifice of a crumbled infrastructure. However, now that Obama has stepped into the role of President howls of rage have been directed at him as though he was in office on 9/11/01 and the 7+ years which followed.

What has happened, of course, is the Punk Ass Bitch REMFpublicans and their conservative birtherite teabagging followers are no longer in power over the Federal Government. Every action condemned under Bush as undercutting the office of president and the country is now acceptable for use against Obama.

For instance, the mantra was Supporting the Troops=Supporting the President, but the Punk Ass Bitches on the Right won't support Obama if he decides enough is enough in Afghanistan.

Rallies in which Leftists displayed signs equating Bush with Hitler and Nazi imagery were used were labelled insane, treasonous and aided the Terrorists. Now:

Obama is a Socialist.
Obama is a Communist.
Obama is a Nazi.

Obama is The Joker
Obama is Mao
Obama is Hitler.

Obama wants to kill Babies.
Obama wants to kill Old People.
Obama wants to kill you.

And these slanders are acceptable. Additionally it is necessary to bring weapons to Rallies against Obama and allude to murdering him via the Thomas Jefferson The Tree of Liberty quote.

You see these instances of pure hypocrisy are okay in the minds of the Punk Ass Bitch Right because they unabashedly believe in Special Pleading or Its Okay If You're A Republican aka IOKIYAR.

Those above instances cover the general mood of the Punk Ass Bitch Right, the REMFpublican Party and their conservative birtherite teabagging followers. But

In June, Congressman Mark Kirk went to China and told some unnamed Chinese Government Bureaucrat, "the budget numbers that the US government had put forward should not be believed."

Yet when Nacny Pelosi visited Syria during the Bush Administration, Sean Inshannity declared, while backed by The Skinny Blonde Harpy Who Shall Not Be Named, Pelosi was "attacking the president" and "She looked ridiculous. She's acting ridiculous." Other Fox Shows hyped the visit as undercutting the President.

Of course, when a Republican goes abroad under a Democratic President to "undermine" the government well it's okay. IOKIYAR

Republican Governor Mark Sanford, as a Congressman at the time, opined, “I think it would be much better for the country and for him personally [to resign]."

Now both these scum buckets have had affairs. Sanford coldly abandoned his wife and sons over Father's Day to met his paramour.

As the incident was being uncovered, as it were, Erick Erickson, of the Punk Ass Butch site RedState angrily declared to Democrats on June 24thWe Police Our Own and You Do Not Get To Judge. However, emails from Erickson indicated Erickson wanted to help cover up the affair. Erickson related the following: “If he wants something more personal for the blog to push back, I’m happy to help." “I wasn’t trying to be a reporter. I wanted to curtail the story.” IOKIYAR

Proven Punk Ass Bitch John Ensign, cheated with the wife of a 'close friend'. Ensign demanded Bill Clinton resign for his affair, "The honorable thing for him to do is to resign and not put the country through this." Ensign won't resign

Emails indicate the affair was known about back in 2008 by the National Republican Senatorial Committee, which of course, did nothing. And then Ensign's mommy and daddy gave the former campaign staffer $96,000 as a 'gift'. But of course, as Nevada Republican Chairwoman Sue Lowden said "This is a personal matter." IOKIYAR

Resignation for Democrats and IOKIYAR.

The Punk Ass Bitch REMFpublicans and their conservative birtherite teabagging followers are hypocrites.

Evolution of the Bible and Creation of Origin of Species

The mob, having heard Christ, turned against him, and applauded his crucifixion. What it yearned for was the old comfortable balderdash under a new and gaudy name. The result was a code of doctrines so discordant and so nonsensical that no two men since, examining it at length, have ever agreed upon its precise meaning.

~ H. L. Mencken, Notes on Democracy

Conservapedia hath begun the de-liberalization of the bible; stating Liberal bias has become the single biggest distortion in modern Bible translations.

It's an evolving 10 step process starting with Framework against Liberal Bias and ending with Prefer Conciseness over Liberal Wordiness.

It's an admission from Conservapedia of their desire to have a different set of "facts" from which to believe in, a further insulation of mind, an ossification of their belief system.

But, the perhaps unthought implication which escapes the anti-liberal hate foam sloshing 'round the brains of the Conservapediacs is that the bible is not actually the perfect word of god. So where does it's authority come from?

Similarly, Ray 'Banana' Comfort and Kirk 'Croc-a-Duck' Cameron have created a new and improved Special Edition of Origin of the Species in which Darwin's ties to Hitler, ignorance of DNA and the axiom evolution=racism are explored, through the addition of a special introduction. Comfort and Cameron will distribute the 50,000 altered texts on 11/22/09 at dozens of universities.

On the plus side, fortunately, and despite British fear of invasion and reconquest by the religious fanatics who fled across the pond to America, the Darwin film Creation finally got a US distributor. So Americans can perhaps think of Charles Darwin in human terms (he was a human being with a family and passions, thoughts, torments) and not view Darwin through the christian fanatics prism of Ultimate Evil!

The fervent need to change ideas to fit one's own prejudices is strong in humanity. It's a human failing that once you come upon an idea or belief it is very hard to shake that belief and contrary evidence often serves to reinforce the belief. Unfortunately, the petulant ignorant religious fanatics who ignore and distort evidence don't go gently into that good night and would rather burn down The Library of Alexandria than allow knowledge to exist when it does not conform to the bible or koran...

Quit Attacking Chicago

Fuck man, I know you flabby assed Republican Punk Ass Bitches hate Obama and need him to fail in order to regain power and control over the Government so you can continue to use the Federal Power to funnel Trillions to your families and cronies but quit it with the short hand of "when I mean corrupt I say Chicago".

Chicago politics is corruption just like every other city and area in the United States.

Personally, I'd rather not get the Olympics here but if we do maybe we can finally upgrade the El and get that damn 100 year old Kinzie Street Railroad Bridge down from the open position over the River...

Update:
Chicago lost the 2016 Olympic Bid and the Punk Ass Bitch Right Wing Republican Party of Chicken Hawk Traitors cheer because Obama "lost". More Cheers for Obama's Loss from 3xTime Medal of Honor winner Bill Kristol's Weekly Standard...

Republicans and their Ilk hate America and the majority of the American People. The really hate you. Republicans want Americans to work themselves to death. They want you to use up the flower of your youth in Industry or the Military and die quickly when you become sick, old and tired. They support Profit over People at all times and fight all attempts to stop the Corporate Ownership and Slavery over the poor and middle class.

Republicans hate you, fight to profit on your death, work to have you die overseas and ensure you don't get medical coverage at home. Republicans want you to die.

Here's Chicago Public Radio story showing how Republicans hate people and support the Corporate Kleptocracy by allowing Corporations to profit on your death:

Until the 1980s, companies could take out life-insurance policies only on key personnel. Then many states started allowing employer-owned insurance on rank-and-file workers. That coverage became known in business circles as janitors insurance or even dead-peasants insurance.
Rep. Luis Gutiérrez (D-Chicago) is raising a red flag. He chairs the U.S. House Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit. Gutiérrez introduced a bill that would ban employer-owned life insurance unless the worker earns at least a million dollars a year from the company. He presented the legislation Wednesday on the House floor.
