And when Comrade Netanyahu speaks…

Yeah, I know, Animal Farm is supposed to be a dystopia all about the Soviets and can NOT be applied to any other political group… The American Fascist errr… “Republican” yeah, that’s the ticket… Forbid You To Say Otherwise..

I wonder why our friends from the Megaphone don’t just as loudly trumpet anything Israelis other than Likud say?

Like when Comrade Chairman Liebermann compared peace activists to Nazi Collaborators… that gets huge cheers from the Likud Megaphone…

But then a strange thing happens…

On Saturday night Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadia Yosef said that, “Whoever votes for Lieberman gives strength to Satan.”

Shas is a political arm of a religious Fundamentalist sect of Judaism who would make the Pharisees say they should lighten up

But in the book, you know, whenever Comrade Napoleon or Comrade Squealer said anything, there was reverent silence followed immediately by the Sheep chanting “Four Legs Good, two legs Baaaddd”

And when anybody else stood up to speak, especially if it was a Comrade who wasn’t in full agreement with Comrades Napoleon and Squealer, The Likud Megaphone errr The Sheep would start chanting “Four Legs Good, Endless war with Palestine Better!

I know I’m only slightly mixing the metaphors.

Actually it’s clarifying the blurred areas between metaphors.

So that even the Loudest, Blindest Stupidest sheep can see….

Party like it’s 1929!

So this is what some of the Thieves did with our money after Mr Bush and his tame Congress gave it to them…

I would go into a schpiel parodying the Republican Talking Points about how the Pigs really do all the hard work of leadership and thus deserve the Apples and the Milk and to occupy the Farmhouse, use the barley as beer instead of feeding their starving constituents and and and… I’m just too tired right now.

The Squealer Speeches can be found in this lovely book called “Animal Farm”, they were just as much Crap when Orwell wrote it as they are when Bill-o and Rush and Their Legion Of Psychotic Sycophants spew it on us today.

These guys Ran The Entire World into the ground.

Under the ground.

Seriously, their plane hit the ground and buried itself about a hundred feet deep. They float down on Golden Parachutes, observe the wreckage scene, shrug cavalierly and say “Oh well, (Orwell?) Doesn’t seem to be much point trying to save the passengers, but if you give us ANOTHER PLANE… we’ll fly that one better”

Why? Because they “deserve” it.

Notice the “gratuities” tab, just under $3K… on a bill that topped a half million… counting the In Call services, cause them boyz ain’t gonna party without the Paid Poon-tang either.

3K, now that’s Reaganite “Trickle Down” in action there.

Guess we’re supposed to Get The Hell Used To It…

Notice they started the party before the bail-out was announced…

Man, I tell ya whut, those dudes sure can be some OBNOXIOUS bastards when they set their minds to it.

DEAD

Alice and dodo
One in four mammals risks extinction for now, but it will be a much worse forecast 50 years from now. The problem is not too many people, but how those people we actually have organize their economic activity on Planet Earth.

Seas turn to acid as they soak up CO2 The problem is not too many people, it is what the people do to the oceans when organized in a destructive world economy.

Vanishing forest: a northern forest is disappearing at a rapid pace—that spells trouble for billions of animals Do you have an American or Canadian flag waving from your house? Why are you so proud and defensive about all this destruction? Don’t you know what is happening? Stop celebrating this culture, this economy, this spirit of DEAD.

Factory farming leads to ‘Destruction of biodiversity — A tendency towards using single adapted breeds (a mono-culture) in factory farming, both in arable and animal farming, gives uniform product designed for high yields, at the risk of increased susceptibility to disease. The loss of locally adapted breeds reduces the resilience of the agricultural system. The issue is not limited to factory farming and historically the problem is reflected in the rapid adoption of one or two strains of crops across a wide area as seen in the Irish potato famine of 1854 and the Bengal rice famine in 1942.[58] The loss of the gene pool of domesticated animals limits the ability to adapt to future problems. This issue exists in all types of farming practices.’ from wikipedia

The Factory Model simply is not the solution at all to anything, whether it be economic or agricultural production, whether it be the production of ‘services’ or the production of ‘education’. Factories run top down by rich owners is DEAD. Factory buffalo hunting is DEAD. Factory fishing is DEAD. Factory logging is DEAD. Factory mining is DEAD. Factory living in shopping mallandia is DEAD.

Those subversive librarians…
