OccupyAfghanistan vets Jeremy and Brittany Westmoreland attracted Patriot Shop teabag Jim Kross to their vow to destroy our local occupy. I'd like to say as little as possible about this lamentable development, except to document today's escalation. 31329

Tea Partying with the Freak Brothers
Whew! These Occupy posts are far more difficult to pry from myself than their predecessors; the hands-on mechanics of putting the earlier stuff into practice in the present world, amongst the isolated pools of individuated consciousness we humans represent, each with his or her own vision of the whole, has been at the very least disorienting. I've lately revived an old motto i swiped from the good people at Oat Willie's down in Austin, Texas: Onward Through the Fog! How odd is it that i've recently connected with some folks that hark back to that place in ways that are deeply surreal. Oat Willie's and Fat Freddie will seem to be completely out of place in this bit, in which i mean to address the notion of cooperation amongst disparate factions, but not permanently i hope. By the end of this post, i hope to connect Occupy, The Tea Party, disparate passions, and yes, Hippies. It will be necessary to engage in some relatively surreal thinking. 29814
I’m still glad the bastard is in HELL where he belongs…
But today they erected a million point five dollar statue of Ronald Satan Reagan at a Washington DC Airport. Still with that famous shit-eating grin he used to talk down to people whose livelihoods he was cutting off and people like my wife Martha, whose very lives he was cutting off. He was a murdering coward son of a Whore and a donkey. A liar and a thief on the level of George Bush and the chickenshit General William Jackson Palmer who the City of Colorado Springs chooses to honor with a bronze Idol right in the middle of the intersection of Platte and Nevada. All the so-called "Christian" leaders of this town flock to worship at the feet of idols, including the Colorado Springs Christian School, and further compound their idolatry by making idols of Thieves, Liars and Murderers like Palmer, Bush, Winfield Scott, Chivington... and Reagan. I hope he had lucid moments during his long death from Alzheimers where he remembered, perhaps for hours at a time, that he had once stolen and murdered his way into the most powerful position on Earth... and then realize that he was DYING. It's too bad he died from Alzheimers rather than a
The Stark truth about race in Texas.
Of course, now the Land Commissioner is putting through using his State Agency an official OK for issuing license plates with the confederate Hate Flag for a group called Sons Of Confederate Veterans. A group for which I qualify but I would never darken their doorway because I believ Know For A FACT that they're celebrating a four-year long continuous 9/11 Terror Attack against Americans, for the purpose of the "states right" to use state funds and state police and state militia to enforce the perpetual denial of every human right to Americans based on the color of their skin. They're a front group for the Klan in other words. But that's not the whole story nor where I got the title for this post. I had a neighbor in Polytechnic Heights, a neighborhood in Ft Worth. Her name was Mrs Stark. Age 98. One early morning, I wasn't there, I was in Oklahoma at Job Corps learning to cook.... she was struck by the Poly Rapist. Who was actually more than one person. Struck repeatedly with a hammer then raped, then laft to die. For all that, she lived another week or so in intensive care. The attackers were
You get your weather forecast at the grocery store DUH!
My Grandpa, 27 year veteran of the Army, was also a staunch Democrat mostly because of Roosevelt and his emergency actions to stop the Depression from destroying America. As bad as it was, it could have gone worse. I know a lot of our (ahem)"conservative" readers, those who drew the assignment of trolling the weblog today, are screaming at their monitors right now just from that. Now, don't y'all worry none, boys, you'll get more to holler about presently. He was in the Civilian Conservation Corps, the ones who at public expense did the necessary work to keep the Heartland from turning into a desert, and cleaned up other little "mistakes" visited on the ecosystem by Mechanized American Mercantilism. That's my nouveau mot du jour. Grandpa was assigned on a dairy farm. With a bunch of others, one of whom was from some city and had apparently never become acquainted with farm life. And who complained about caring for, cleaning and milking the cows. Since cattle lay belly down to sleep at night, often in their own feces, you can't just lead Bossy to the barn, slap a bucket under her and starting pulling teats. Hell to the No Sir. You have to
Shocking USAToday headline: Most supercommittee members have ties to lobbyists
Say it ain't so, Joe. The USAToday chain actually crawling up to the bar and saying what everybody knew since the SuperCommittee was announced at the end of July? In other news Might-Makes-Right Wing former favorite (Hey, the RNC paid his back due child support, alimony and property taxes) Samuel Wurzlbach, the Fake Joe Fake Plumber, famous for lying, is running for congress. His former sponsor in crime, Sarah Palin, announced that she won't run for president. Said "family considerations come first" which is a new concern for her. Probably has a lot to do with the majority of supporters of her running on either the Republican or Tea Party tickets were Democrats. All in all a productive news day.
Capital = Job creation, as explained by CenturyLink formerly Qwest formerly SW Bell
and somewhere in there a brief fantasy relationship with Yahoo as an internet service provider and a general screwing to the taxpayers of the City of Irving and Dallas county being thrown in... but I once more digress. CenturyLink "absorbed" Qwest's facilities, employees and corporate debts in a process called merger where all duplicated or "redundant" jobs on both sides of the merger were downsized. Meaning XXX number of real people lost their tech and service sector jobs. That's the way it looks on any prospectus of any merged corporations, in order to convince people to invest more capital in those corporations. In reality the jobs created would be debt collectors and repossession crews and foreclosure agents. BUT that's what they tell the Money People. Those of us who are in the Peasant Majority are told that we should welcome CenturyLink along with the massive tax breaks given on top of the ones they already enjoyed PLUS extras for "Job Creation" in our communities... we're told that these massive layoffs is somehow an opportunity for those "downsized" out of having a living wage job to get a job with a company who has just laid off about 20 percent of their workforce
36 Gigabucks in fraud? Dig harder or dig in another place…
Cause there's a much more massive gap between what was reported to us as the cost of the war as late as oh. let me see... Last Week, where the cost of the War on An Amorphous Emotion Peopled By Shadowy Dark Skinned People In Far Corners of The Empire was "set" at being somewhere more than a Trillion dollars.... and the amount that doesn't seem to be accounted for. Which is estimated at between 5 and 8 trillion. How does 8 Trillion anything just up and piss-a-deer? I published an analogy of what a trillion dead mosquitoes would look like in one place, it would be a hill of mosquito meat about as tall as the Capitol Dome. Perhaps one reason the money is "unaccounted" is because the accountants work for the Thieves. Such as one Richard Cheney, who recently as in a couple of days ago did another interview on NBC. Regarding him being not responsible for the massacre of the poor known as the "response to Hurricane Katrina". Irresponsible? yes. NOT responsible? Hell to the no. His company, Halliburton, from which he didn't divest at all when he became the President of Vice, took the greatest share of the funds sent
Things to De-Celebrate this National Hate Week
Which is a smack to the back of the head to all those who told us in 1984 that the Police State setup from the BOOK of the same name couldn't possibly happen in America because it was all about Socialist Dystopia and nobody, no not ever, could set up a CAPITALIST dictatorship. God, they're stupid. But here's what the post 9/11 "patriotism" has gotten us. Eight years of a moron for president, an evil moron but a moron. His crew of more intelligent evil people used the occasion to make it unpatriotic to question their plans to deregulate American industries. We've seen a 9/11 worth of dead Americans every single month due to denial of Health Care. We've seen pollution that al Qa'eda could only hope to inflict on any one small town, done daily and across the nation. We've seen our national surplus turned upside down, and many multiples of the amount of that surplus in debt, due to the Wars started by the aforementioned Moron in response to 9/11. The badly misnamed USA PATRIOT Act is being invoked against Julian Assange and Wikileaks in response to their telling the TRUTH about 9/11 and the aforementioned wars, the moron
An 83% Payroll Tax, on the Workers and paid directly to the Corporations
That's what I paid and, everybody who works for a "Slave Market" minimum wage Labor Contractor Service such as Labor Ready, Apprentice, Manpower, Kelly... The "tax" is paid to a Non-Governmental Organization, and is paid before the Worker gets his check. I base the 83% figure on the fact that the workers are paid only 1/6th of what the Parasite Corporation gets for his "product". Under the various manifestations of the "Right To Get Screwed At Work" law, the workers aren't allowed to negotiate wages, working conditions, pensions or Insurance through the use of Collective Bargaining. We're supposed, instead, to go hat-in-hand and beg the employer for a slight fraction more of what is actually owed us. On an individual basis and, under the RTW law, the employer can cut your wages just as quickly as he "gives" them to you. They can take 5 times what we get, producing absolutely NOTHING themselves. We're not allowed to do what the Corporate Masters do, insist on a profit for our product. Nor, according to the laws as interpreted by their Tame Supreme Court, are we even allowed to break even. You can't go to King Soopers or Safeway and buy a $3
Rick GoodHair, latest actor in the insane RNC puppet show
Aside from the constant pain in my destroyed feet ankle and left knee being a minute by minute reminder of the "Texas Miracle" economic program... There's the fact that the Reddest of the Red States are net debtors to the Federal Government they claim to despise. Corporate Warfare Welfare being the worst offender but also the massive amount of people who are eligible for food stamps (such as it is) AFDC and utilities assistance even though they're working two jobs at slave wages. Keep the workers broke, in debt, and if they're broken on the job, like myself, we're told that we should have squeezed insurance money and "down time" money out of the wage which isn't enough to pay our bills. 26377
OMG the Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph agrees Obama is a Tar-Baby
YES OF COURSE my surprised is feigned, but not my embarrassment. How in the world does a newspaper of not insignificant distribution (okay, readership perhaps) not restrain itself from supporting a bigoted remark like Congressman Lamborn's? Whether the racism was inadvertent or idiotic, at best the comparison of America's black president to a "Tar-Baby" could have been remarked upon, if one didn't want to condemn it, but the Colorado Springs Gazette chose to support its Tea-Party libertarian by belittling criticism that the reference to the Uncle Remus stereotype was racist. In historic perspective it recalls the days when Colorado newspapers endorsed lynchings, and later the Klan. In essence that's not ancient history. People no further away than Denver can dismiss Lamborn as typical of Pikes Peak mouth-breathers, and the Gazette editorial page confirms them. Indignation doesn't begin to touch it.
Tea Party revolutionaries support establishment here and in Mexico
Amazing that the same hate groups who want to start an "Ass-tro turf" Corporate funded "revolution" to maintain the corporate status quo (isn't a revolution supposed to overthrow the Establishment?) are providing the guns to both sides in the current Mexican revolution. 25879
Wikileaks- US State Dept ties Haitian aid to acceptance of wage slavery
When the outgoing Haitian Govt insisted on the whopping huge $5 a DAY minimum wage instead of the three dollars a day being offered by the Corporate-owned U.S.A.I.D., their pet sellouts at State Dept, which has been trying to put a stranglehold on who does or does not do business with Haiti since, like, Forever, endorsed a U.S.A.I.D. report that Haiti wasn't as badly harmed by the earthquake and thus, the Haitian people owe the aid money back. Welcome to the Global Plantation. I wonders, yes I does, how much Gov Scott Walker, Rep Paul Ryan, Gov LePage of Maine, Rick GoodHair of Texas, The Chambers of Commerce, and their Local Anti-worker ToolsTrained Monkeys like Paige, Patchsi, Janis Heuberger, Jeff Crank, Malkin, Tancredo, and the entire City Council, the Mayor and County Commissioners have in their own personal stock portfolios on this? Slavery by low wage and high debt IS their main way of doing business. How about it, anti-Union anti-Working Class PUNKS? Sound off on how morally superior and righteous you are in defense of Slavery.
A mother’s day message for the RepubliKlan
I mean, aside from your party lock step voting to cancel Medicare and Social Security for your own mommas as well as ours... nice to see your penchant for Human Sacrifice is still strong, except of course that you're not going to actually sacrifice YOURSELVES. But you know how y'all like to say, especially the Libertarian faction and TeaPotties? That you might not agree with what we say but you'll fight to the death to defend our right to say it? So, when Lauren Valle was stomped down for criticizing your hero Rand Paul, by three of his Koward Kentucky Komrades, with hundreds of other KKK disciples of "liberty" standing around to make sure nobody interrupted their sick sadistic fun and Rand Paul himself, nobly of course refusing to either "fight to the death" or even tell his chickenshit disciples to stop? Yeah, that one. And of course Sarah Palin telling the people not to sit down and not to shut up while she was having the Police arrest people and violently drag them from her rally because they didn't sit down or shut up? Of course y'all didn't even do anything to protest that, did you? I can understand that you're
Sarah Palin and the Republican Lie of “sacrifice”
Since she makes so much political hay over having sacrificed "her own" son to the Military Establishment, maybe she should have a short tutorial on the word Sacrifice. First, stolen goods, stolen money and humans aren't viewed as Clean for the Temple. Just like Caiphas couldn't spend the thirty shekels, because it was the price of blood. Sarah Palin could not in any way OWN her son. He's another separate human being. Not a possession. He might consider himself a sacrifice (he'd be wrong) but it would be HIS blood offering, not hers. Also he doesn't seem to be dying for the atonement of anybody's sin, if he DOES get his fascist face blown through the back of his skull it'll be because he's in a foreign country enslaving the people, taking their land and oil in the name of the corporations for whom Momma Grizzly does her whorin'. and one of them would get in a good shot while defending his country against Young Sgt Palin. Not anything similar to a sacrifice. 23771
Shit I learned in school
...because, really, I DO believe there's a deliberate sabotage of Public Education being done simply by handing a "liberal" program over to be administered by "conservatives". In 7th grade in Texas you're taught Texas History. Some of it would be almost unrecognizable from a Yankee point of view. For instance, we were taught that the Civil War wasn't about slavery, it was about State's Rights. State's Rights to spend civic money and exercise military and police powers to enforce slavery. We were also told, and I have reason to believe that it's gotten worse, we were told that the Slaves were well treated, given decent food and housing, and Medical Care. Happy Days on de ol' Plantation wif all de Darkies singin' and happy and de Massa jes' lubbin all of dem! O, de sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home it's summer and the darkies are gay... You smile and laugh and sing because the Massah would beat you and maybe have you killed if you indicated any dissatisfaction with the arrangement. It's that simple. The Slaves were all Happy and Content and Well Treated... so why do the Corporate Slaveholders of the Modern Plantation, the ones who advance this bald-face lie about how good
1/2 million in London in Pre-wedding drama
Demonstrating against cuts which force austerity on the poorest... but not on the richest. They've already (the protesters) once gotten their hands on Charles' car with him and lovely bride Camel-face errr his lovely camel Camilla, errr never mind over cutting education. Sound familiar? What that demonstrated was that the police tactic of "kettling" didn't work. Not if it's strategically outmaneuvered, instead of ONE or only several larger demonstrations, have a whole bunch of demonstrations all around the "kettle". Kettle the police in other words. While planning for his son's wedding. A huge Taxpayer Subsidized affair blatantly stating "Ha-Ha, we're rich, you're not, suck on it you Silly Peasants!" much like our own Self-Anointed Royals here in Colorado Springs. (Hi, Princess Lisa!) or Scott Walker in Wisconsin or the Emperor Brothers Koch. They attempted a "Let them eat cake" maneuver saying how the poor, wretched starving Royals had to "tighten their budget as well" for instance the newly created Princess will have to ride in a Previously Owned Rolls Royce! A, Qu'elle Horreur!!! Imagine the shame of the Royals being seing in public in a Used Car!!??? I personally believe Prince William will look quite handsome at the guillotine or, for the
Scott Walker, Koch-Licker Supreme, strikes again
In a measure not just skirting state constitution, but directly contravening it, the Anti-Workers Rights law was published Friday. Not even bothering anymore to hide their vicious agenda to deprive workers of freedom. The only "right" workers will have is to work. At whatever wage the Big Pig Parasite Class decides is enough for them to survive on, even if it's far less than what it costs US to produce our labor. The Greedy-ass Rich Bitch corporate overlords would refuse to make less than a 20% annual profit, yet WE, the workers who put the money in THEIR pockets to begin with, are not allowed to decide what a fair profit for OUR labor, OUR product, would be. Nor even to decide for ourselves what "breaking even" would be, THEIR thieving Corporate Accountants and Corporate Attorneys will tell us and if we object, what? The traditional method for them to punish workers for being so "uppity" as to think of ourselves as Human Beings with rights, is to order THEIR Pigs to arrest us and THEIR so-called "justice" system to Imprison us, forcing US to work for THEIR corporations without any pay. If we object any further, they have THEIR Torture-freak "corrections" officers
So Apparently Mrs Palin really isn’t a hunter…
Meaning that she LIED about being Momma Grizzly as easily as she lied about being a "fiscal conservative". The root word in "conservative" is "conserve" and the reason her being a liar is so relevant is that she'll be HERE next month promoting other lying-ass Republican "conservatives" who conserve absolutely nothing. Steve Bach, for instance, Sally and Lisa the Princess Twins, Doug Bruce. This is third hand, from politcususaDOTcom, because some of the more so-called conservative respondents to our comments are too damned lazy to follow a link. It's a recurrent problem and printed in its entirety, same reason. ?It's part of the pattern of dishonesty that defines the entire right wing. This morning, Malia Litman (owner of MaliaLitman’s “A Rebuttal to the Rogue” blog) alerted PoliticusUSA that she had uncovered a rather large lie Sarah Palin has been peddling to the American public. 23540
Two years ago they said the dude was murdered
To silence him, of course. Now the Murdoch-owned (maybe just affiliated) tabloid The Globe reports that "Obama's gay lover tries to commit suicide". Call the Pope! it's a Miracle! Man dead for two years tries to commit suicide! Other headlines in this bizarre series, "Oprah Gay!" "Obama has affair with Oprah!" "Michelle has affair with Oprah!" "Michelle tells Oprah: Stay away from MY man!" 23483
Right Wing “lone wolf” murderers
Their Whoremasters like Sarah Palin and the rest of the DumFox crew still refuse to admit that they urge people to KILL (they have to have other people do it because they're too frightened to murder people themselves). Usually it's male wannabee hitmen like Jared Loughner, Jim Adkisson, von Brunn, Scott Roeder, Tim McVeigh, Terry Nichols, Erik Rudolf, Local Retard Gary Faulkner and the occasional physically female like Babykiller Shawna Forde, and they have a few other things in common. They're usually part of local cults, not exactly "lone wolf" like the Right Wing Hate Media claim. They usually go after people they consider weaklings. And they perceive their Fox News Whoremasters to be speaking literally when they rant and rave and foam at the mouth about a "War" against any form of Non-Fox Thought. Like Sarah Palin urging her demented Disciple Jared Loughner to murder 6 people in Tucson. Lou Dobbs urging Shawna Forde and her crew to Murder (yet another) nine year old American Child. If Gary Faulkner had succeeded in killing some Pakistan citizens, most likely including children, in his Rambo-inspired fantasy quest to take out the ALREADY DEAD Osama bin Laden, who among the Hate-Mongers would
Lisa Czeladtko Kills Babies!
So do all the real estate industry Sucks who support her and her Kid Killing Komrades like the developers of that Toxic Waste Dump directly across 24W /slash/Cimarron street, where they're building quarter-to-half million dollar McMansions on TOXIC WASTE. Which is releasing even more of the toxins which are buried there into Fountain Creek. Extrneme, says you? Not so, says me. Those toxic chemicals like Mercury, Cyanide, Arsenic, Copper Sulfate, Lead Sulfate, Chrome Oxide, other poisons which are a result of the Oil, Gas, Coal, Metal extractions induustries supported by, and supporting the candidacy of BABYKILLERS LIKE PRINCESS BARBIE Czeladtko and substantially more than half of the candidates running for Mayor or City Council in less than a month. These are the people who sold their own souls and the lives of everybody else, including and especially the children, to the Corporate Monsters. Yet they run their campaigns on the outright LIES of "morality, decency, family values" and other so-called "conservative" garbage. The "conservatives" conserve nothing but their own Fascist power structure. They should be ashamed but, tragically, they're not. Instead of blaming their "conservative" values of dumping toxic chemicals into the waters, they blamed a tiny minority, the Homeless PEOPLE, for bacteria in the creeks,
Princess Lisa, “conservative” spends city funds threatening opposition.
Princess Lisa sent this Email, cc'ed to Dennis Hisey, Amy Lathen and Sallie Clark, her TeaBag Terrorist accomplices, and to the Fascist Sheriff and Police Chief: I assume these are copyright violations. Ed, I am forwarding this on to Chief Meyers of the Colorado police department and El Paso County's Sheriff Maketa. Your videos are inappropriate, threatening, include sexual content, promote violence and hate, you have written defamatory statements against elected officials, and are probably violating copyright laws. I will ask for appropriate instruction to go through the formal process to keep you away from me. 23314
Ballot Caging and the real difference between D and R
The R's don't want people to vote. More people politically active, means they lose. Very simple. 23307
