There's a failsafe in the rainmaker/faith healer scam that lets the thief off the ol' hook so that either way he gets paid. If the sufferer is healed, even if say, he was "laid hands on" on the 6th day of a 7 day cold and was much better the next day, like that, then the scamster wins. Takes the money and splits. If the sufferer dies, or just doesn't get better, the sufferer himself is to blame for not having enough faith. Scamster still gets paid. Same with the rainmaking game, you get paid if you "make" rain or if the "doubters in the audience prevented it". So what happens when you get more than you expected? There's a pretty widespread tropical storm in the Gulf right now, hitting Lousy Anna with a projected two feet of rainfall. All the low pressure is drawing high pressure down from the north and west in a pretty snappy cold front. At noon Dallas time the temperature was 86. That's a full 20 degrees lower than they were getting all summer. All measurements non-metric, though, because Americans have sabotaged the Public Education in many ways including rejection of the Metric System as being "socialism". They still depend on it without once knowing what the freak they're using to keep their cars running, their computers computing, their phones phoning, even the barbecue grills are designed by people using Metric then converting back to SAE. But the cooler weather and even, dare I say RAIN, while good for Texas and Texans, doesn't match the exact specifications Perry's preposterous pirate partners proposed. Seems that God, in answering the prayers literally, has effectively shut down 60% of the petroleum extraction operations in the Gulf. How? By causing worries that Katrina might repeat. It wasn't the hurricane which did the worst damage, it was (at the time) 25 YEARS of Republican neglect of the levees which collapsed under the extra weight from the extra water. Seems the oil "recovery" (as though Exxon-Mobil, BP, Shell, Texaco etc merely misplaced the oil under the ocean the way they misplaced "THEIR" oil under the sands of Iraq) requires on-shore coordination that, withdrawn in an evacuation, cuts production more drastically than any moratorium could have. So what are the Lying Thief Bastards at the "Americans For Prosperity" going to blame the next gas price spike on? They're making a pretense of piety so they can't very well blame God. Are they going to say that President Obama has full control over the weather? If he were that powerful, and unstoppable, how could they really rally votes and most important (they are thieves, remember) donations for their cause? They can't blame SUVs and other luxury "status symbols" for people who have no Status and Penis Extensions for people who have tiny di..... No, they have to blame somebody who isn't putting money in their greedy bloody hands. One person in a car made for eight, multiplied millions of times every day, that couldn't possibly upset the ol' Supply and Demand equation

Vote for Me, or Pogo gets it between the eyes…
In another episode of the RNC deliberately throwing the 2012 elections, Bush administrations pointing fingers at each other over the Katrina non-handling. Instead of blaming everybody but themselves. Rick GoodHair told the VFW that he would send more Working Class people into harms way with pre-emptive strikes against anybody who is profiled as MAYBE becoming a terrorist threat sometime in the vague future. AND, Bachmann came out in favor of drilling for oil in the Everglades. So it's not exactly Okefenokee, the place where Pogo lived. Through the medium of a cartoon of course.
War costs many times what Pentagon reported, Surprise.
We've been told, you know, that the total spending on the Wars Of Conquest in the Bananastans was "only" a Trillion dollars. For those who don't visualize numbers very well, that's a million times a million. Using the largest standard bill in U.S. Currency, the $100, it would take a suitcase to hold a million dollars, and it would weigh just over 22 pounds, ten kilograms. (Each bill weighs a gram, 10,000 bills... hey, people in the drug trade know that, it's easier to weigh a million dollars than count it. That shit from Scarface where they had a counting machine, pure fiction. Dope dealers use their scales for more than just weighing out the product.) Other estimates are 3.7 trillion. That's substantially more. Then there's more realistic estimates that range from 5 Trillion up to 8 Tera-bux. That would be from estimating the costs + "over-runs" like syphoning off a few million suitcases full of Benjamins, of construction projects given with no-bid contracts to companies like Halliburton, which has a lot of connections to the Bush Family and the former President of Vice, Richard "dickless" Cheney. But they wouldn't rip us off, no, not possible. I could barely type that snark-asm without becoming violently ill. "The debt crisis has been a game changer in terms of defense spending," said Laura Peterson, a national security analyst at Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan budget watchdog. "It used to be that asking how much the wars cost was unpatriotic. The attitude going into the war is you spend whatever you cost. Now maybe asking is more patriotic." How was that funded without raising taxes? Bonds. Bonds which pay 10% annually. Which means the interest is going to exactly match the principal this coming quarter. So that makes the cost to the taxpayers exactly twice what it would have cost with a pay-as-you-go system. Because the Rich Bitches like CheneyBush aren't going to let the American People get out of our obligation to line their pockets. And they're not going to tax their Rich Bitch Buddies either, they've already made that point clear. Instead they're going to blame the poorest people, those of us who control less than 1% of the total wealth, for their own little Oopsie moment, and tax us accordingly. Cut Momma's Social Security. Slash pay and benefits so we'll have less raw income with which to pay more money than all of us collectively won't see in several lifetimes of Minimum Slavery. Those of us "Lucky Duckies" who don't make enough money to pay income tax. It seems that every time Class Warfare rears its ugly head, the guns are pointed at the Working class and away from the Parasite Class. It's worth noting that within a year the first use of a machine gun (different from a Gatling gun) by the United States Army was against U.S. civilians at the Ludlow Massacre, and IWW organizer Joe Hill was blown away at Salt Lake City by a firing squad.
BP can’t find skilled workers. DUH!
As part of the international cabal sabotaging public education, workers rights, environmental and workplace safety, and making sure the Courts are fully privatized and thus Not Going To Ever Grant Equal Protection Under The Law. Oh, that's right, we, the workers, who control less than a fifth of the wealth of the world, are allowed to buy judges too. Mighty gracious of them to "give" us such a right. The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike from begging, stealing bread and sleeping under bridges. So they'll treat our skills as just another commodity, one which we were supposed to take money away from paying our rent, medical care and other bills to buy that commodity so we could sell THAT, too, at a price far below what it cost us to produce it. Palin and Bachmann and the rest of the TeaPubliKlan Party chose to be somewhat higher paid slaves (whores, actually) for the Oil Lobby. And make the claim that they have the authority to sell US to their whore-masters. And our children and grandchildren. It's not any consolation but they sold their own kids and grandkids to their corporate masters too. Soylent Green Is PEOPLE!
Lyndon Le Douche promises to save the world, with international support
OK so the guy gets a little crazy sounding when he starts talking messianic. No, that's not true... he gets a Whole Lot Crazy sounding. Crazy as a shithouse rat and probably dangerous. He claims now that he can overthrow the government not only of the United States but also every nation in the European Union. This was the guy who promised to, if elected, build a Mars colony with the money he would save by privatizing social security. That was in 1984. He also advertises himself as a "leading economist" but, here's the thing, if he's leading something, anything, and has such superhuman powers that he can overthrow an election in which the winner got 70 million votes and LaRouche got less than a half a percent in the 6 states in which he did best in 1984. 0.4% to be exact. If he's got that much power that he can overthrow the U.S. and the E.U., why didn't he do something to fix things earlier, like, for instance, when George Bush started two very bank-breaking wars-for-profit 10 years ago? He's got the TeaBags interested, but they're racist morons like himself anyway.
Geronimo and a Senate Committee on Stereotypes
Pursuant to the Operation Geronimo now shrouded in a cloud of "No, we aren't going to give you any evidence beyond our word" maneuver? Well, no. The committee hearing is on Racial Stereotyping as applied to American Indians and they HAD first dibs on naming rights, after the Chiricahua Apache and St Jerome (in Spanish it's Geronimo) of course, but definitely somewhere further up the line than the Navy SEALS assassination squad/highly organized lynching. At the time Geronimo was arrested on essentially Terrorism charges, not much was known about Apache sepulture, either rituals or where the graves went. But instead of burying him in Arizona, Mexico, New Mexico or Colorado, in an Apache ceremony, they buried him at Ft Sill OK. In the Apache (Prisoner Of War) section of the base cemetery. There's a couple of new legends come about, that the skull of the Skull and Bones society was his. Wouldn't surprise me at all. Folks who get a giggle from handling parts of dead humans would get an extra thrill from robbing an army Cemetery and the racist factor would make it even sweeter for them. There's an extra legend that representatives from some of the larger Apache Tribes, Chricahua, Mescalero, Jicarillo and White Mountain, re-buried him in a secret location. Which, really, at the time of his death, Apache rituals for burial were actually secret, and I've had no desire whatsoever to disrespect their customs by "digging around" asking rude questions. But from somewhere the now familiar refrain of "we don't want his followers making a shrine of his grave" was pulled out and he was buried in Ft Sill instead of New Mexico. There was a lawsuit against the United States Army and the Skull and Bones society filed in 2009 and dismissed LAST YEAR, seeking the return of the skull and bones so they could be returned to be reburied in New Mexico. On the 99th anniversary of Geronimo's death a group of 20 of the warrior's decendants sued the U.S. government, Skull and Bones and Yale in an attempt to rebury their ancestor's bones near his birthplace. In 2010 Judge Richard Roberts granted a Justice Department motion to dismiss the suit. Geronimo's relatives, he said, failed to establish that the government waived its right not to be sued. Roberts also dismissed the lawsuit against Skull and Bones and Yale, saying the plaintiffs cited a law that applies only to Native American cultural items excavated or discovered after 1990. Meaning. if you're Rich enough and have enough ties to the Officially Unofficial American Aristocracy, you can do with the bones of any Mere Peasant whatever the fuck you want. A Bush-appointed probably-skull-and-bones member, so-called "Justice" said so. The so-called "Justice Department" didn't want to investigate or prosecute the desecration of Indian graves, what a SURPRISE that was. Bunch of Racist Pricks. Maybe somebody should find out where Judge Roberts Momma is buried, dig her nasty mouldered ass out of the ground and chop THAT up, see how HE and the other Racist Pricks like THAT? I
Rule of law & American Exceptionalism
The extrem(ist)e lack of the first puts any claim of the latter as the very essence of arrogant falsehood. We're told that America, and ONLY America, actually deserves to run the entire world because we're better than them. What's that sound? Damn, I just heard every Right Wing Jingoist my-country-right-or-wrong, Love-it-or-leave-it, we're-fighting-for-your-freedom-of-speech-so-you-better-shut-your-cake-hole-or-we'll-shut-it-for-you "patriotic" TeaTard Racist closing his mind. They just snapped their minds shut simultaneously. with a deafening roar. Consider the case of one Luis Posada Carriles For those of our readers unfamiliar with the Castellano (Spanish) naming scheme, Carriles was his mother's maiden name. His surname is Posada. A terrorist paid by the U.S. Regime over decades to murder, to overthrow Democracy wherever it reared its lovely head. His CIA "handler" was one Donald Gregg, an American Coward who paid public money, without public oversight and, like fellow Terrorist George Bush Gregg was recently honored in Colorado Springs. Seems the local "conservatives" can't get enough of Babykilling Freaks. (They're hosting Sarah Palin later this month) So, Colorado Springs and El Paso County show a lot of solidarity with Terrorists like Gregg, and his "asset" Posada. El Paso County Texas too, where the Republican prosecutor, in a show trial, charged this mass murdering TERRORIST with "lying to immigration officials" a charge compared to charging Hitler with Disorderly Conduct and then dropping the charges. I spent more time in the El Paso County Jail for talking back to the PIGS. Guess if I actually were a murderer or something they would have simply welcomed me to their club. Pigs are like that. Fellow CIA "assets" handled by Gregg and his friends Rumsfeld, George HW Bush, (before and AFTER he became President in charge of Vice and subsequently Commander in Thief) Ollie North, Richard Secord, a rogues gallery indeed... But the "assets" list included, until they became too much of an embarrassment, Saddam Hussein, The Medellin Cartel, and Panama Puppet Manuel Noriega. Their current assets include Nouri al Maliki, Satrap of Baghdad, Mauricio Funes, of the Satrapy El Salvador, Felipe Calderon, Puppet Dictator of Mexico, Eden Pastora, Babykilling Contra leader, Ricardo Martinelli Panamian Sock-puppet, and the list grows longer. Human rights slaughtered right along with the humans who claimed them. Posada was just one of many, and was charged, and acquitted, in the same El Paso County Texas Kangaroo Court system which acquits cops of murder routinely, and enables the same PIGS to beat, imprison on false charges (automatic conviction in their courts on those charges) and KILL people for the crimes of talking back or wearing a brown skin. It's true what they say, Thieves of a Feather, Cowards Run in Packs, and the Counties of El Paso Texas and El Paso Colorado glorify, fund, and enable Terrorist BITCHES like Posada and Gregg and Bush and Palin. Have a nice babykilling.
Santorum defends Murderous, anti-Christian Crusaders
But first, since the top twenty searches on Google return this: Santorum 1. The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. 2. Senator Rick Santorum. He said today that the Crusades have such a bad image because the American Left has formed a conspiracy to taint their image. Never heard of this book that predates the American Left by about a century and a half by one Father Charles Chiniquy of Montreal "50 years in the 'church' of Rome". Taking on, among other things, the Crusades. Surely Santorum, a Catholic, would have known that his Far Right John-Birch-Ronald Reagan-Nixon-McCarthyism Lunatic Fringe brethren used that book, and others, to demonize his own Church when JFK was running for president? How he can stand to be on the same stage with them is a ridiculous act of political buffoonery. claro que hay Tios Tomasitos en cada grupo. look it up, the language is Spanish. But first, for the search engines:Santorum 1. The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. 2. Senator Rick Santorum.. But as to the Crusaders, they're far more an embarassment to Christianity and Western Civilization than anything the Left Wing ever said about them. The Childrens Crusades immortalized in The Pied Piper of Hameln. There's Richard Couer de Leon with his slaughter of prisoners of war, Jews and CHRISTIANS in Jerusalem and Akra. The facts that the Crusaders killed not only more Christians than they did Muslims, they also killed more Christians than Muslims did. The fact that the Caliphate in Jerusalem had, prior to the Crusades and even AFTER the Crusades allowed Christian churches and Jewish Synagogues not only in Jerusalem, but also Teheran, and Baghdad, and Istanbul, and Egypt, and the oldest Christian Church in the world in India... in the Muslim part... And After the Crusades as well. maybe Santorum 1. The frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex. 2. Senator Rick Santorum. doesn't read his own Church Dogma about the continued unbroken lineage at the Church of the Nativity, smack in the Muslim Quarter of Bethlehem. Hmmmm. or perhaps the notion that if the Muslim Caliphate HADN'T permitted churches and synagogues in the Holy Land then where did the Christians and Jews slaughtered by Richard Lion-Heart come from? Santorum is a punk-ass bitch at best, and an embarassment to Christianity in general, and by his selling out to the Anti-Catholic lunatics, an embarassment to Catholics. Just like the Crusaders themselves. His assertions that they spread "Western Culture and Freedom" in the Muslim World WHAT "culture"? What freedom in a feudal society where everybody under the king of any land was the property of that King? www.spreadingsantorum.com The "Crusaders" comic books put out by Chick Christian Publications toward the end of their run had a couple of comix called Miguel, about a modern version of Chiniquy, a Spaniard Priest, who also denounced the Catholic Church and... used the Crusades as an Example.

Warmonger Hillary says “Taliban made wrong choice”…Wikileaks disproved it
Part of the reason she wants Herod to serve up John Baptists errr Julians head on a silver charger. She was at the Asia Conference, telling the Taliban they must Bow before Her Imperial Majesty, or else... and that in 2001 they had made a "Wrong Choice" by "defying the international community and refusing to hand over al Qa'eda". She was Lying Through Her Teeth in other words. Wikileaks merely confirmed what the Bush and now Obama administrations have been denying for 9 years, the Taliban HAD offered to deliver Osama bin Laden to an international tribunal at the Hague. Just not hand him over to the U.S. Lynch Mob "justice" Department where, according to Ms Hillary and George Bush he would have gotten a Fair Kangaroo Court Trial before being lynched. Why did the "Justice" and State(Sponsored Terrorism) Departments not want a real trial, (instead of a secret tribunal, or bin Laden shot in the head while handcuffed errr... "commiting suicide rather than face justice") with evidence that wouldn't have come from Torture Victims, in 2001? The offer was made and has been confirmed, why does Ms Clinton continue to lie? Could it be that Hillary Clinton, like George Bush, has interests in the Oil Industry which is the ONLY beneficiary to the wars based on their massive conspiracy theory?
Bush/Blair have a fall guy!
Iraqi Defector gave defective evidence deliberately, US/UK Defective Detectives failed to notice. See? The Bush, Blair and other governments who launched the blatantly profit-driven war weren't actually Lying to us in any way, oh, no... They were Misled by a bad ol' Iraqi. That makes all better, they weren't dishonest, just stupid. Dig that thar hole a little deeper boys... you'll dig your way out eventually... lying cowardly profit-hungry chickenshit pukes... LONDON (Reuters) – An Iraqi defector made up claims that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction to help topple his government, Britain's Guardian newspaper reported on Wednesday. The defector, Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, said in an interview with the Guardian that he had fabricated claims of mobile biological weapons and clandestine factories made to German intelligence officials throughout 2000. Former U.S. President George W. Bush and other high U.S. officials cited the threat posed by Iraqi biological weapons as justification for the U.S.-led invasion in 2003. No such weapons were found and years of political and sectarian bloodshed followed In Iraq, resulting in more than 100,000 mostly civilian deaths. "Maybe I was right, maybe I was not right," Janabi, codenamed "Curveball" by U.S. and German intelligence officials, told the newspaper. "I had a problem with the Saddam regime," he said. "I wanted to get rid of him and now I had this chance." The information from Janabi formed the basis of a 2003 speech by former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell before the United Nations Security Council. The Guardian said Janabi had told a German official about mobile bioweapons trucks during 2000. The German secret service, the BND, which had identified Janabi as a Baghdad-based chemical engineer, approached him in March of that year and again in 2002 looking for inside information about Iraq. "They gave me this chance. I had the chance to fabricate something to topple the regime," Janabi said. "Believe me, there was no other way to bring about freedom to Iraq. There were no other possibilities." (Writing by Karolina Tagaris, editing by Chris Wilson) So in other words, they based their claims on the word of one man who had a hateful grudge against Saddam Hussein. Now, if they'd found one of Saddam's FRIENDS to testify against him that would have been enough evidence to launch an investigation. The Bush/Blair doctrine was that "if there's a 1% chance" they had a duty to launch the war, and destroy the economy of every country involved and kick the props out from under the rest of the global economy as well. How about THIS? Since a lot of the Leaders of the "externally induced coup" claim to be fundamentalist Christians or Zionist Jews or even Muslims, (Saudis, Jordan, Mubarak-the-ex-satrap-of-Egypt, Turkey...) why not do what Jewish/Christian/Sharia law commands, and judge the accusers by the same standards they used to make their judgments? A lot of people, even non-religious, know the saying, or at least part of it, "Judge not, lest ye also be judged..." and the rest of it "for by the same measure with which ye judge shalt thou
Bush on the lam from Switzerland!
Cancelled a planned appearance for fear of being arrested for Torture and other heinous crimes. Too bad the CSPD and prosecutor don't have the BALLS to file similar charges against the Über-VerBrecher and instead are giving him a Medal for being such an upstanding Christian Hero. Like Vlad Dracula. I wonder if they're going to serve Peasant under glass or merely fried Baby Nuggets? He's said to be extremely partial to baby roasted in Napalm or White Phosphorus ...
If “Security Firm” HBGary knows “high command” of Anonymous…
Why then weren't they contracted by the U.S. Dept of (in)Justice to find the sender of the email on the White House LAN, who gave Pooter Libby the information to help the BushTards punish Valerie Plame Wilson for not backing up their LIES about WMDs? Wouldn't the Capital Murders of 7000+ U.S. soldiers committed by the CheneyBush Kartel stir patriotic interest on the part of ANY of them? One of the Bush Lies was that they HAD initiated a thorough investigation into the Plame leak, but couldn't find anything. Yet Disney and other entertainment outlets can find not only the ORIGIN of a file transfer, but also the computer receiving the data, or so they claim on all of the billions of IP addresses on the Internet, but they can't find one person sending an email from a specific computer, at a specific time, from the White House which has a camera trained on every door, especially in a time of "heightened security"? On an extremely limited Local Area Network. Since WHEN? Isn't HBGary one of the firms contracted by not only the Dept of (in)Justice but also Homeland (in)Security and the Department of Remote Controlled Assassinations "Defense"? Why do I suspect that the alleged hack attack on their website by "anonymous" is a Marinus van der Lubbe type of setup to convict without trial the persons HBGary and their whoremasters at DoJ and DoD had already targeted? This is sick. On a day when the British are considering taking the first steps toward an Extraordinary Rendition to Guantanamo Torture Center of Wikileaks founder Assange, and BBC is reporting the "hack" against HBGary as though it's an established fact, Beating the ol' War Drum against Freedom, once more...

Cameron vows Racial Cultural purity for Britain
Says he doesn't have anything against Islam, just "radical" Islam, meaning, Muslims who don't bow down before his Naturally Superior White Culture. He also, as prime minister to ROYALTY, and incidentally the same Royal Family that used to hunt his ancestors, just for sport, babbles much about Democracy and respect for other cultures. Which he says is somehow the hallmark of the British Empire. There was, earlier, a parade honoring what the Irish call Bloody Sunday, when Mr Cameron's Loving and Caring and ever-so-respectful Queen ordered her storm-troopers to fire on a crowd in Derry, in January 1972. * John (Jackie) Duddy (17). Shot in the chest in the car park of Rossville flats. Four witnesses stated Duddy was unarmed and running away from the paratroopers when he was killed. Three of them saw a soldier take deliberate aim at the youth as he ran. He is the uncle of the Irish boxer John Duddy. * Patrick Joseph Doherty (31). Shot from behind while attempting to crawl to safety in the forecourt of Rossville flats. Doherty was the subject of a series of photographs, taken before and after he died by French journalist Gilles Peress. Despite testimony from "Soldier F" that he had fired at a man holding and firing a pistol, Widgery acknowledged that the photographs showed Doherty was unarmed, and that forensic tests on his hands for gunshot residue proved negative. * Bernard McGuigan (41). Shot in the back of the head when he went to help Patrick Doherty. He had been waving a white handkerchief at the soldiers to indicate his peaceful intentions. * Hugh Pious Gilmour (17). Shot through his right elbow, the bullet then entering his chest as he ran from the paratroopers on Rossville Street. Widgery acknowledged that a photograph taken seconds after Gilmour was hit corroborated witness reports that he was unarmed, and that tests for gunshot residue were negative "Widgery" refers to the first investigation, which in spite of all these inconsistencies, cleared the British Stormtroopers of any wrongdoing. * Kevin McElhinney (17). Shot from behind while attempting to crawl to safety at the front entrance of the Rossville Flats. Two witnesses stated McElhinney was unarmed. * Michael Gerald Kelly (17). Shot in the stomach while standing near the rubble barricade in front of Rossville Flats. Widgery accepted that Kelly was unarmed. * John Pius Young (17). Shot in the head while standing at the rubble barricade. Two witnesses stated Young was unarmed. * William Noel Nash (19). Shot in the chest near the barricade. Witnesses stated Nash was unarmed and going to the aid of another when killed. * Michael M. McDaid (20). Shot in the face at the barricade as he was walking away from the paratroopers. The trajectory of the bullet indicated he could have been killed by soldiers positioned on the
Mad-ministration scared now…
Tunisia, Lebanon, now Cairo. They're said to be the lynchpins in "Middle East Peace" meaning Pox Americana. Somehow ONLY the U.S. is capable of determning peace terms WTF? Maybe there IS a huge disconnect in perception here in America. (Ok, "maybe" is just being polite) but going around conquering nations isn't exactly a stabilizing mechanism. Setting up puppet dictators in those conquered nations, conquered either through overt war like in Iraq and Afghanistan and Greece and South Korea, or through Diplomacy coupled with assassinations. That won't lead to peace either. There was a saying in the Military "Peace, through superior firepower" well, that's not peace, that's conquest. You can only force people to do your will for a limited time. Sooner or later, usually sooner, it comes roaring back and bites you square on your arse. Now Obama and Mrs Clinton are treading a fine line, do we overtly back the demonstrators, in the hopes that they'll be nice to our Slaverymongers Ambassadors of goodwill and freedom, or back Mubarak in the off chance that he'll be able to suppress this rebellion (doing it on behalf of his Washington UberMeisters) and "We" would have to make nice to him. All to keep up a maintainable position in VietRaquiStan. Synonymous terms: Fat chance, slim chance, not a snowball's chance in Hell.
Russian Airport reaction: From the reactionaries.
Which in their customary thought processes, comes out as confusion. For a long while they've been vacillating, our Dearest Redneck Leaders that is. They praise the Putin-Medvedev-KGB response to the theatre hostage situation, where they killed civilians to get at the terrorists, then a school with the same methods, same results... In response to REAL Caucasians who formerly had, until being rolled over by the Russians under the Tsars and kept a part of Russia under the Soviets and still are, much like the much booed Soviet takeover in Afghanistan which mirrors the Current NATO takeover, Where "our" current enemies were THEIR enemies... they had been sovereign nations. Then the Right Wing Reactionaries condemn the Russian government for being simultaneously too lenient and too hard-line. WTF? How Hard-Core Repressive Does One Have To Be To Satisfy These Jackasses? This attack occurred in the waiting area where people were queued up waiting to be poked, prodded, stripped, x-rayed and fondled by the Russian equivalent of TSA. So what next, what levels of "security" will suffice? a buffer zone around the buffer zone? Having to hire extra uniformed thugs to staff the new protocol and the buffer zones that will expand ever outward around them? A perpetually replicating concentric circle, what happens when the borders of the safety zone collide with the borders of other safety zones, do the uniformed thugs declare inter-agency war on each other? All that extra staffing, they'll need to hire extra Security Screen personnel to do background checks on the New Hires. And of course constantly monitor them. Spies to keep track of the other spies. If I were to write a computer program that does the same thing it would take all the space in each infected computer in a matter of hours. Trillions of bytes of replicated, duplicated effort. And this in the post-Capitalist economy wherein Ponzi Capitalism crashed and burned. Again. Perhaps in its final death throes. You on the Capitalist side of the argument, you can't afford the security measures that would make your stolen gold and stolen oil safe. You don't have enough money and guess what? Your usual method of securing extra capital, Conquest? ain't going to work either because you've already stolen all the money in the world. There's nothing left for you to steal. Now for the REALLY sad part. Remember World War One? Well, unless you're about a hundred and twenty years old you probably don't. But World War One was BEFORE there were any socialist economies active. All the belligerent parties were Capitalists who banked in the same system. And they ran into essentially the same problem, all the resources were locked into either your own account, or those of competing corporations nations. No new capital to sustain the unsustainable. Money borrowed from people who had in turn borrowed. No principal left, just an upward spiral of increasing interest. What are Bloated Capitalist Big-pigs to do in such a scenario? Exactly what they did in 1914, mobilize their hordes of Peasants to march off and slaughter
Iran had ‘preconditions’ for nuclear talks, Great Powers miffed..
Actually Baroness Ashton and other "diplomats" said they were "disappointed". Baroness Ashton led a delegation from France, Germany, Russia, the UK, US and China, at the two-day talks. The international team had proposed a new version of a plan to keep Iranian enrichment within civilian-grade levels by having it send uranium abroad to be processed. But Western diplomatic sources have spoken of anger and frustration over Iran's behavior at the talks. But of course... Arrogantly demanding that one's own nation be accorded the same Sovereign Rights as any other is a privilege accorded to the Great Powers. "Simply EVERYBODY knows THAT, Dah-link" So the Baroness is pissed. GOOD. The Royals got snubbed by Peasants. GOOD. Apparently, unilateral demands should only come from the Empire. Only, since World War One they've shied away from being called that. One of the reasons for the British Crown starting the war was the same with King George V as it was with Elizabeth II, Iranian oil for the Empire. And Iraqi. Only it was under Turkish control at the time, and had to be taken away from Turkish control by force of arms. Arms carried in the arms of Peasants who had to be conscripted or cajoled into doing Their Masters' bidding. So they invented a lie, of course. Happens all the time in Diplomatic Circles, as Wikileaks has recently revealed. Just like Gueen Bess 2 cheerily signing on to the BushBlairCheneyCo. lies about WMDs both in Iraq and Iran, King George V jumped at a chance to pit "his" Imperial Army against those of his cousins in a gigantic game of Risk where the pawns actually scream, bleed and die when gassed, shot or bombed. By telling the Suckers errr "Loyal Subjects Patriots that they, as subjects and property of an Emperor, were to fight Imperialism. "That small nations would have the same rights as the the Great Powers." What a crock of Lying Pig Shit. The Emperors made out like the murdering bandits they were then and still are today. The peasants filled millions of graves. Same as always.
As long as they have their Priorities straight
"Justice" Department drops charges against CIA Torture Freaks for destroying evidence, as in the Videos they took of their coward comrades exercising power over helpless people. Cop Porn in other words. I bet George W and Cheney have copies though, for the above mentioned reason. Meanwhile the REAL hero, Bradley Manning, rots in a Military Brig where the MPs, like True PIGS everywhere, are probably beating him on a daily basis, while he's bound and helpless of course. Torturers and their supporters are such cowards.
9/11 of course. What did you expect?
Thanks to Friend Tony for pointing out that people who don't believe the Official Story of 9/11 is actually valid, are so stupid that we don't merit being read, listened to or answered. This makes somewhere around a hundred times he's made this comment, after listening to or reading them. I guess it should be pointed out AGAIN some of the many reasons why the Official Story needs some serious questioning. One is the cult like nature of the Resistance Movement Against Questioning The Official High Priests Of 9/11. Such as the Congressionally appointed commission which was stacked top to bottom with people who reaped enormous profit from touting the official story. War Contractors top the list. Political Hacks whose only chance to survive is by groveling to the War Contractors and taking the bribes offered by said Daddy Warbucks types. Hacks like Bush, and Palin, and Daddy Warbucks types who are ALSO Political Hacks. Cheney, North, Rupert Murdoch and his cast and crew of Paid Professional Liars, which now includes Sarah Palin. Then there are people who have only one purpose, one drive to continue life... Hatred. People like Pamela Geller. There's some crossover with the War Contractors and Political Hacks on that score as well, Michelle Malkin leaps to mind. The biggest thing about any and all of these people who either demand that we not question Their Sacred 9/11 Gospel of Hate, lest they brand us as Non-Americans. Which, you know, when enough of the Anti-American Terrorists like the re-branded Ku Klux Klowns of the Tea Party catch somebody whom they've declared to be "Not a REAL American" out alone and helpless, extra heavy on the helpless, they can get really vicious. Killing Vicious. Alternated with mocking anybody who questions them or points out their dangerous behavior problems, like Murder, Arson, Aggravated Assault... those type of things, must be "stupid" or "Crazy" or some other version of "not able to think rationally nor intelligently". And all this from people who either consistently Lie about just anything they open their cake-holes to spew, deliberately and with full knowledge that they're lying, or the Disciples of their 9/11 Official Story Cult, apparently some of them unable to tell that the most blatant lies are in fact lies,... but most of them too Morally Chickenshit, lacking the courage to face those Lies and call them Lies. The proponents of the 9/11 Official Gospel also told us that there were Training Camps in Afghanistan, camps which, after almost 9 years of continuous occupation by United States and allied armies, have never actually been found. The million pounds of Nerve Gas supposedly in Iraq. Supposedly moved around an urban population center, Baghdad, by underpaid, underfed, undereducated, undertrained and badly demoralized Teenage Conscripts who had no training in handling Nerve gas, often only a half-hour ahead of U.N. Weapons Inspectors... without one single accident. The United States, which has more stockpiled Nuclear, Biological and Chemical weapons than the rest of the world combined, stores "our" Nerve Gas in climate
News sources, MSM and the mouths of horses…
See, we constantly get told, on this site and any other site that opposes the wars and the occupations and such, that we're listening to the "Liberal Mainstream Media". Huh? The most frequently criticized "Liberal" media are as rabid a War-mongering Mob as Fox, they're just more polite about it. Sometimes more polite about it. The bullshit with the "Ground Zero Mosque" is being whipped up by the MSM CORPORATE whores just as much as the FOX corporate whores. With an insidious difference, they'll use weasel words rather than coming right out and saying "Hate Muslims! Hate Islam! The REAL 'Obsession' is our Hatred for all things Middle East!" like FOX does. Same with the Wounded Warrior bullshit the Pentagon tries to fill a swimming pool with, and then dump us in. The fault of causing all those wounds and deaths isn't in the Anti-War movement, it's in those who twist their own words to make it appear just, and righteous, to CONTINUE the wars and start others. Why would they do that? Money. What did you think, that the Corporate Press would cut the throats of their Pigs who lay the Golden Turds? Of course they won't. People who were recently in the Military Establishment have a little bit of an excuse. Not much but some. It's called Stockholm Syndrome. "Jonah, from whose rectal orifice did you pull that one?" but, straight from the Horses' Mouths is more like it. Stockholms is well documented because the United States Military uses it to defend against confessions made by U.S. POWs. In every non-declared war in my lifetime, the only POWs treated as such by the U.S. military were those held prisoner by the people the U.S. soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines attacked, in their own countries, without a declaration of war. Like McCain. VietMinh "cong" soldiers were handed over to the Saigon Govt troops for torture and execution, not as POWs, but as criminals. Fairly typical, Bush demanded that any American soldiers taken prisoner by the resistance groups in the nations of Iraq and Afghanistan be "treated humanely under the terms of the Geneva and Hague Conventions" while denying any such treatment to the prisoners captured and tortured and killed by OUR soldiers. So here's how Stockholm's works. It's a principle of Pavlovian Conditioning. Like when Dr Pavlov trained his dogs to slobber every time he rang a bell. In the Chinese prison camps during the Korean War, the SAME techniques used to train those dogs, and to train the U.S. soldiers and really those of every established military in the world, were called "brainwashing". Who says so? The U.S. Army When we write of War Crimes committed by the U.S. Army, our sources certainly aren't the Tame Media. They're the often conflicting reports issued by the Army and... from the soldiers themselves. The recently discharged soldiers, well, they're still hopped up on the Industrial Strength Koolaid administered by the Army. In-their-face confrontations against the lies they were told so often is a good therapy for that. It
More Cheney heart(less) Surgery… so remember the rule
Dance first, THEN piss...(mustn't get our shoes all wet and stinky) He hasn't, alas, made the journey yet. He is however having more surgeries, mostly because he's stupid and arrogant and won't follow medical advice. Like not getting drunk while using his pacemaker. It's worth notice that he received care unavailable to any other American who, unlike him, hasn't got a trillion dollars in stolen money stashed in his corporate coffers. Americans of his age and outrageously stupid health-maintenance habits. His money only borrowed extra time to add up more points against his Immortal Soul taking the old "up" elevator. People who have to depend on either Corporate Health "care" or Medicare/Medicaid/CHAMPVA/TriCare would be refused such treatment if they behave as stupidly as he does. Or, and much more importantly, if they just don't happen to be in a position of political power or extreme (stolen) wealth, thus the Corporate Medical Establishment doesn't consider their lives to be worth saving. Something Mr Cheney "heart"ily endorses. His lawyer-friend, the one from that infamous incident where they were both so drunk that Cheney couldn't tell the difference between a 200 pound Corrupt Texas Lawyer and a 2 pound bird... (Cheney says "Duck!" and his accomplice jumps up and says "Where?") might take the ferry-ride across Styx on the same trip. One can only hope, mostly because it would be amusing to think of Cheney trying to get his lawyer to plea-bargain for him. My hope, in the off chance that there is no Hell awaiting him, is that he takes a few days to die. And in as much pain as any of the Torture Victims whose "enhanced interrogation" sessions he and Bush watched as porn.
WOOT! Kissinger War-Crimes evidence coming out!
This one a communication FROM his Royal Satanic Lowness to the puppet leadership of the Chilean Massacres in 1976. That would be in the final year of the Noble Reign of King Gerald of Ford. You remember how Bush the Elder and Bush The Chimp accused Iraq of hiding WMDs and War Criminals... and we on the Left (the ones who are still accused of being Wrong and of course Stupid because we questioned their fake assumptions) published a map of the one country on earth which has more of each class of WMD than the rest of the world combined and also harbors more war criminals than the rest of the world combined? with the headline "We Found 'em!" ...it's a map of the United States... Henry Kissinger is only one of many. But he's a HUGE fish. Pals around with Terrorists like Secord, North and Poindexter, who after betraying America and Americans in their pursuit of Empire have been given Government Jobs (and pardons for their treason) North works for the Ministry of Propaganda as a so-called "journalist" on DumFox Snooze with a show called "war stories". Shielded from prosecution by Executive Order from the "freedom" loving George Bush jr. (the Chimpleton) Reagan, Ford and Nixon are in Hell fellating Saddam Hussein. Nobody wants to extradite them though. That leaves the biggest Despotic Mass Murder in recent history to be Kissinger.
Silly Palin praises fallen Medal of Honor marine, but fails to note a couple things
One is that the actions he was taking, along with his comrades, when he won the medal, were War Crimes. The use of Military Force to compel people to obey his Terrorist Government. Civilian People. Making War against CIVILIANS. The other thing Mrs Palin neglected to mention is that neither she nor her Accomplices in the Bush and now Obama administration, and their Oil Company puppetmasters, gave two shits more about the life of the Marine or any of his 6000+ fellow soldiers who were slaughtered in the act of their commissions of War Crimes, than she or her Accomplices care about the Civilians who were either enslaved or Murdered at their command. She makes money from every soldier who dies, and every one of their victims who dies or is imprisoned as well. If her OWN son gets his stupid head blown off, she'll make money from that as well, AND use his death to make herself "look good". Typical Warmongering Money-worshipper. The Dollar Bill is their god. They even call it "The Almighty". It only makes it that much more blasphemous when they go to church and pretend that the atrocities they commit are done for Jesus or any other name of Jehovah.
Rebuilding the Temple of The Almighty Dollar… the WTC… capital as “god”
So they chose one that "gives the bird" to Heaven. Nice Choice! If you believe that Money is the god of America, and that the Twin Towers were its Most Holy Temple. I heard a preacher once describe the 9/11 as being an attack against the basic tenets of Christianity ...except, Jesus spoke against capitalism. And the first church at Jerusalem was a commune. And, yes, it DOES look like four curled knuckles with an outstretched middle finger. OOOOOOOO.... I bet that makes bin Laden shake in his sandals! But my thought was, since the place is literally a grave to begin with, why not just pour a concrete slab 4 stories high and have the names of the Known Dead written on it as a tombstone? Maybe write the names of the thousands of Americans and Hundreds of Thousands of Afghans and Iraqis and Pakistanis etc etc etc that were slaughtered in an orgy of Hate, which funneled the treasury of the United States into the pockets of Bush and Cheney, who were extremely likely suspects in the destruction of the Towers in the first place. They made out like, well, the despicable Sneak Thief Cowards that they truly are. Does anybody else find it intriguing that there were no high-level Finance or Trade ministers actually in the buildings at the time, on a Tuesday morning in the late summer? Or how about the Pentagon, top heavy with Colonels and Generals, (naval Captains and Admirals...) but not a single general dies in the attack? Or the fourth plane, supposedly going after the White House, when George coWard Bush had let it be known a couple of weeks in advance that he wasn't going to be there? By the way, if they're looking to insult folks from the Arabian peninsula, the "sign of the fig" would be more appropriate. But the ones who want to "wave the bloody shirt" to keep the BushWarz going (and putting more money into the pockets of the Corporate Elite) wouldn't recognize that anyway.
America Wins! Tea Party LOSES!
One of their congressional whiners, from Michigan: "The American people know you can't reduce health care costs by spending $1 trillion or raising taxes by more than one-half trillion dollars. The American people know that you cannot cut Medicare by over one-half trillion dollars without hurting seniors," said Rep. Dave Camp, R-Mich. (as though the lying hypocrite ever gave two shits about seniors or the deficit) "And, the American people know that you can't create an entirely new government entitlement program without exploding spending and the deficit." (unlike the current over ten trillion deficit with more to come from an "entitlement program" for the Oil and Coal corporations and the War Industry billioniares) You see, the Daddy WarBucks DeathMongers and their partners in the Oil Industry, they're entitled to take any oil resources in any country they want, tax free (on their part) and the American People are obligated not only to do their fighting for them, we have to pay for their Wars of Conquest as well. As for their so-called concern for "Seniors" their party has sucked Medicare and Social Security funds dry to fund THEIR War. They've repeatedly robbed Social Security trust funds for the past three decades and campaigned not only against any increases in health care to the older Americans who rely on it, but against the very institution of Medicare in the first place. Rush Limbaugh vowed two weeks ago that he would leave the country if it passed... Wow, you think for once he'll keep his word? Bye, Rush, nice seeing you(r back as you're leaving) and don't you worry none, if them thare Costa Rican Peasants ever rebel against you and your equally Fat Retarded Friends, you know you can always count on your Dittoheads to come and fight for you, just like you and your Fat-ass retarded brother did in Vietna... ooops... Never Mind. When left for the ChickenHawks to do anything like that, you're screwed.
You know how the Tea-baggers claim to give 3/4 of a Deceased Rat’s Rectum about Seniors?
Turns out one of their controllers, the Bush Administration pricks who are angling to get back into full power, meaning, first place at the trough, have been issuing bonds against Social Security surplus funds to finance Bush's (Cheney and Rove actually) Global War On The American Bank Account, without a squeak of pretended outrage from the Tea-Baggers. More proof that their agenda has more to do on the "Astroturf Roots" level with outrage that a Black man is President than anything substantial. Tea Party "patriots", are you listening? You're being played like a finely tuned harmonica on so many levels by the Rich Bitches who will discard your stupid collective arse as quickly as they discarded the disabled and other poor and now, the Older PEOPLE you stupid bastards claim to care so much about. While you're out there with your signs tonight, in Colorado, in Washington, screaming about how those of us who aren't Rich simply DESERVE to die, the Rich Bitch Corporations who are funding and organizing your "grass roots" movement are raping America one public trust at a time. Congratulations, your Corporate Masters have bought you. And by extension hope to buy the rest of us as well, for the small price of Everything We and You actually had. That's right, Stupid Tea Party, you're selling yourself for worse than nothing, you're actually PAYING for your chains of Slavery.
