South African president is a pimp daddy

-

Who put the 'afro' in aphrodisiac? I don't know, but South African president Jacob Zuma comes to mind. The old man, 67, has been found to have sired a "love child" with a thirty-nine year old daughter of a family friend. Mr Zuma, a proud Zulu, has been married five times and currently has three wives (wife #3 is a plump thirty-six)----plus a fiancee. Pimp daddy! Go head with yo old bad self! Understandably his critics have blasted him a hypocrite and sex addict.

Hugh Hefner, go chew on your pipe...and plastic pin-ups 

While the president's governing skills and moral guard are questionable, his mojo certainly is not. As the father of nineteen children, Mr Zuma knows

how to get his Zulu on. Just four years ago, the politician faced rape charges (he won acquittal) and publicly confessed to having also screwed a family friend's HIV+ daughter sans condom. It is by now common knowledge that sub-Saharan Africa hosts the world's largest AIDS population.

If Africans don't die first of starvation or guerrilla warfare, then the AIDS disease will get them. It is also now common knowledge not to leave one's daughters around Jacob Zuma.

But President Zuma remains disease-free and footloose. Hugh Hefner, go chew on your pipe...and fake ass, air-brushed plastic blond pin-ups. If I live to be nearly seventy years ancient and lambasted a sex addict, then I'll be goddamn if the preacher leave that out of my eulogy. Booyah!  

Australian Open Champion - Serena Wiliams !!

-
She's done it again----and this time set a historical milestone. Serena Williams won the 2010 Australian Open championships (just like she did last year), making it five Australian Open titles and tying Billie Jean King with a sum of twelve Grand Slam singles championship to her name.

Congratulations Miss Williams!

Obama v. Alito (lost decorum)

-



From a shouted "You lie!" last year to a mouthed equivalent this year, by a Supreme Court Justice, no less, President Obama is left with little delusions about thriving bipartisanship. At this rate, next year they'll probably quietly file out or just sit and listen to their ipods. Odd how the Chamber was stoic during the Monkey's disastrous, biased and lying eight years.

Paranoia causes security scare

- 
In the latest reported airplane scare a young Orthodox Jew's religious equipment sent off suspicion and concern. The boxes he was strapping to himself (phylacteries) appeared to one passenger akin to explosive devices and this alarmed passenger alerted the plane staff who, in turn, alerted the pilot and the plane was promptly diverted to Philadelphia.

Turns out the phylacteries were as innocuous, if not a tad ridiculous, as a birthday party clown. But, hey, who knows in this day-and-age, right? After all, if fingernail clippers, water bottles and pen knives can torpedo a plane out of the sky, why shouldn't undue suspicion be aroused by dynamite looking objects?

This latest scare isn't any less preposterous or more offensive just because the suspect was a Jew.

Mike Krumboltz suggests this episode "clearly highlights the need for more cultural understanding." Really? Sounds to me like Mr Krumboltz is giving this incident an unwarranted anti-Semitic claim. In fact, the entire piece reads tolerantly of this airplane scare. I doubt the same measure of tolerance or "cultural understanding" would be shown were the individual Arab looking or dark skinned. Were Mr Krumboltz to express two cents on the reversed scenario I think it unlikely the man would forgive it as cultural misunderstanding; rather the sentiment would ring along the lines of better-safe-than-sorry. This latest scare isn't any less preposterous or more offensive just because the suspect was a Jew.

If anything the security scare was a result of our heightened climate. Paranoia transforms goblins and threats out of everyone else's appearances and behaviours. The "see something, say something" public announcements are a benign way of encouraging civilian spies (and counterproductive in big cities like NYC or LA where freaks and strange, often mentally sick, behaviour is de rigeur) as if folks wouldn't otherwise report possible danger. 

Paranoia transforms goblins and threats out of everyone else's appearances and behaviours.

Mass paranoia lives by 'better-safe-than-sorry' and 'you-never-know' which, taken for a life creed, amounts to cowardice and moral impotence. A nail file presents no danger to a commercial plane anymore than baby formula but governments and the security industry would have you misthinking differently because, well, hey, you never know.

And you never will know once you stop thinking and abandon common sense. 

Generally speaking, in any sustainable relationship, people will treat you the way you let them.

Rush Limbaugh proves again he's a moron

-

Rush Limbaugh never tires of proving why he is a moron---a hateful, bigoted, beedy brained, fat, reactionary, Obama-hating, asshole moron; because a swell of other smaller and poorer hateful, bigoted, beedy brained, Obama-hating, asshole morons tune into his daily demagoguery thus encouraging this angry windbag.


If his harsh words concerning the disaster in Haiti stung, then so be it. Protested the pig man, “If I said it, I meant to say it, and I do believe that everything is political to this president.”

Evil abounds according to the incomprehensible balance of universal Order and, definitely, the history of Man. The only evil more boundless than racism is stupidity or willful ignorance.

Drug cartels have opened killing season

-
I return to Mexico so often because I like the easy living and weather and language, but its charming primitiveness is fast on its way to returning to barbarism. Already a Third World country known for its poverty, cheap labor, drugs and soccer, Mexico's traditions are itching to re-light a powder keg that will have blood running in the streets and heads poached on sticks...or used by twisted beaners as soccer balls. 

Two weeks into 2010 and drug cartels have made their evil intent clear: We crazy sonsofbitches are here to kill all who interfere. Kill or be killed

No drug trafficking mayhem is evident here in beautiful, touristy, homophilic Puerto Vallarta; but I probably wont be returning next year.

Two weeks into 2010 and drug cartels have made their evil intent clear: We crazy sonsofbitches are here to kill all who interfere. Kill or be killed. Law of the Jungle has no place in any civilized country or society.

Today, sixty-nine---sixty-nine!---murders blotted pig scanners. Sixty-nine murders in one day. Lest you mistake them for simple gun slinging desperados the henchmen are fond of torture and chopping up bodies and discarding the remains in public as gruesome calling cards. Destruction is not removed from creativity. One victim, a word to be applied loosely as nearly all the unfortunates tend to have some connection to the cartels, was a former pig whose face was removed and stitched on to a soccer ball. They do love soccer! 

With "happiness" like this who needs madness?

Poverty is NOT at the root of this diabolical terror. Nor is illiteracy. Loads of places have poor and stupid and unhappy people but they don't reek havoc and terrorism on the country because they're, what?, without. Mexicans like to brag about being, among other things, the happiest people in the world. Some rag like Reader's Digest, which a few years back also purported NYC was the most hospitable American city, gave them such an advancement and they cling to it. With "happiness" like this who needs anger or madness?


Certainly not tourists.

Mexico anticipates revolution...AGAIN

-
As Mexico moves into the new year so, too, does its traditions and one particularly eerie tradition has it that it's time for revolution, baby.


In 1999 we were anxious to party like Prince told us to. But in Mexico they have anxieties to coup like it's 1910...or 1810; either one would fulfill their superstitions. A decade's long overthrow ensued two centuries ago and it was followed by another decade's long regime tussle exactly one century later. Both were ruthless and bloody. President Calderon vows the curse has had its day. However, with drug war violence running at an all time high and inbred superstition running higher still, it is comprehensible why the actualization of this self-fulfilled prophecy has the natives restless. For years I've heard 2010 spoken of glowingly. As if it represented the Second Coming of Christ. Hang the public denials: This.is.wanted. In Mexico it ain't worthwhile change unless it is loud, senseless, and bloody.


Viva revolucion, cabron!

Criminal tracked down by virtual habits

-
Get a load of this hick loser. Alfred Hightower flees an arrest warrant in Indiana three years ago but the Hoosier pigs track him down in Ottawa, Ontario---due to his online gaming habit! If only the drug peddler had a life instead of living via 
World of Warcraft he might still be on the lam in Canuckistan yet to be apprehended via, hopefully, more masculine means than playing a "witches and warlock" Internet game.

Famed Mississippi judge falls hard

-
Judge Bobby DeLaughter will become federal inmate #12930042 within one hour; if not, it will either be because he's a suicide or a fugitive. What a way to commence the new year!


His successful law career and distinguished rise to the bench are earmarked by the long overdue murder conviction of Byron de la Beckwith, the smug racist sonofabitch, who murdered NAACP leader Medgar Evers in the '60s. 

Greed brought down Mr DeLaughter. For all of his scholarship and prestige, he got greedy (bribery), lied about it to the FBI---never lie to them; even if you blow up a whole town or just shoplift a pen you can probably beat the wrap BUT you can't whittle out of being untruthful to the FBI; go to federal prison for selling secrets to Iran or trying to rape the President or yelling, Fire!, in a public place, not for lying to agents---and they nailed his ass.

Finally it's 2010!!

And 2009 was a wonderful year to me.

Thank ya Jesus

"2012" (movie)

-
I went to see 2012---twice. Am geeked by the subject, the trailer and reviews are smashing, and like watching John Cusack movies. 

The roller coaster of natural disasters had me on the edge of my seat, jumping at supercalafragalistic ex- and implosions and morbidly laughing at bodies meeting their demises. For example, early on there's an anxious elderly motorist who cautions her geriatric passenger, Hold on to those eggs dear, just before plowing head on into the road cum wall. Hope they used coupons.

I have to admit I totally did not catch the Biblical Ark reference after the first viewing, even though in the movie they call the gigantic, megaton nautical "countries" arks. Someone had to point it out to me. Hey, in my defence, qvandoqve bonvs dormitat homervs ("even Homer nods"). Anyway, God said it would be fire next time. So there.

In honour to the year 2012 I've respectfully added a mindful timer to the page. Bon voyage. 

Xmas actually means Christmas

-
For all the controversy Christians, who invariably show themselves to be a least informed demographic on most topics outside of faith, including Jesus Christ, "Xmas" actually does acknowledge Christ and, yes, means Christmas. The abbreviated form, and we're certainly not unaccustomed to abbreviations, dates back centuries when scholars and informed peoples, commonly read things in Latin or Greek. It has nothing to do with retailers.


In Greek the prophet was called Christos. Christos is spelled with the X (chi, pronounced like a hard k) + r (rho) and when these Greek symbols are paired  together the word appears as a modern-day P overlapped with an X 

We've since dropped the
rho letter in lieu of the more pronounced X but, in sum, Xmas is not a diss to Christianity or secularization of the holiday. Xmas is respectful and informed shorthand for Christmas. Tsk, tsk, tsk...leave it to the faithful flock to not know squat. 

How little I regard the war

-

In going through my archives I noticed there was only one entry on the war. Strange, I  thought, seeing as how the Obama Administration (not "we") is engaged in two wars just like his predecessor.

Not all of us have loved ones in the military

Two wars and, yet, I barely register them. I regard them so little that I can't care less about contributing commentary to the fold. So do these wars still matter...for anyone outside of the White House and soldiers' families? Not all of us have loved ones in the military (or private contracting businesses).


In the beginning I believed the Iraq War had merit. In the beginning I believed our forces had virtue and strategy and would win. In the beginning I believed the cause and effects of the fighting would benefit the American people and country, and, naturally, the world. In the beginning I was conscious of the war and the ticker-tape of casualties. Now; now, I'm not conscious of it. Now, the beginning seems so long ago.

Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives.

Driving three sheets to the wind

-

I'd just finished writing about the drunk bitch on the train tracks and was happily on my way out to the beach when I noticed a VW beetle literally on the steps of a neighboring apt building. It looked like a Transformer was caught in the act of walking up the steps before hurriedly reverting to his automobile form. But the incident was zero science fiction and at least 180 proof drunk Mexican. He was unhurt (of course) but, man, if he wasn't three sheets to the wind, then he was five. 

There he swayed, blood-shot eyes and a mess, wondering aloud to the two traffic officials who showed up, Oye what's the big deal?  It looked unbelievable---too good a piece to pass up---so I went back inside, grabbed my netbook and, being the clever boy that I am, pretended to search for an Internet signal all the while snapping shots with its built-in camera of the one-car accident. I live three miles to the sky atop a steep hill and, from the looks of it, drunk Speedy Gonzalez backed out over the stairs. Damn those rear view mirrors and their misleading objects-may-appear-closer-than-they-actually-are warnings. Whoops, up and over goes the beetle!

if he wasn't three sheets to the wind, then he was five

The following was overheard (am not making this up): 
"I have to drive to work," explained the fool in his composed inebriated state.
"But, look," said the officials, pointing to the accident scene, "you can't drive." 

 what in thee #*@!?

FINALLY! Kidnapped son reunited with US father

BREAKING NEWS: True to over-the-top Latino form, the Brazilian family delivered the boy to the American Consulate amid a raucous feeding frenzy of media and onlookers. A more dignified method was doable but, hey, where's the fun and drama in that, right?

Irregardless of the selfish, stressful, and needless ploy---cry for us Brazil! The evil American is taking...uh...his son---nine-year old Sean entered the consulate several minutes before the court deadline.

At long last he is now with his father and they are on a plane back to America.

On marriage. More criticism (Mexico's sham play)

-

Mexico has legalized same-sex marriage. And?


My lack of faith in marriage hardly needs further encouragement but this "historical" sham by our Third World neighbor is further proof that marriage is whatever the hell you think constitutes it. As the legislature pats itself on the back for some supposed advancement in civil rights let's give a one-handed clap and ask, And?

Now that Juan and Jose can cement their love---where? in a Catholic church?---and sneer at America for being backwards what real progress has Mexico made on any real front? 


It is still common practice for prosecutors to punish rapists by obligating them to marry their victims. What a bright idea! Forget earning cents to the peso, women are downright simply second-class citizens; the reality is cruder for indigenous people---whom Mexicans slander as "Indians"---as a whole. Sexual harassment hasn't even reached the debate of being politically incorrect. Nearly all indoor jobs go to femenino applicants while masculino applicants with zero education work outdoor jobs. Jane clean, Tarzan swing. The largely unsolved 400+ female homicides since 1993 in Ciudad Juarez is still hopefully under investigation (click here).

this "historical" sham by our Third World neighbor is further proof that marriage is whatever the hell you think constitutes it

If the country has any child labor laws you certainly can't tell. For those children that aren't working, they are likely begging. Pity and charity are nurtured at the tit and from the cradle.


The education system, like the court system and driving regulations, is incomprehensible to a foreigner. I know citizens who have no education and the social graces to prove it, and then those who perpetually re-enroll in universidad armed with a vocabulary loyal to freshman year and, yet, there is not a chasm of difference betwixt their worldview or economic or social standings. They say school is mandatory but I see school-age children during all hours of the day, night and late night.  


Corruption goes hand in hand with promotion.
Drug cartels are fierce and ruthless and, chillingly, in some cases, celebrated and respected by the people as Robin Hoods. Mexico's witness protection program doesn't trouble itself with new identities and practically lists the addresses of participants. Coyotes, human traffickers, are actually looked upon as good, viable options as opposed to, say, education, discipline, honest living. Bribery, like racism, is rationalized.

Birth deformities and old people beg in the streets like displaced circus geeks

Guadalajara's professional soccer team Club Chivas, for one, bars non-Mexicans from joining its organization even if the athlete has dual citizenship. Only 100% Mexicans can play on their roster. People in Guadalajara think they're not racist---but they are. The government prohibits non "100%" Mexicans from running for many political offices irregardless if one is now third generation citizen. Apparently a chink shall never become a real beaner and don't you forget it, muchacho! In fact I've NEVER seen a Asian person working outside of an Asian store; never behind a bank teller's window, or in a Burger King, or a gas station or a Cineplex or a supermarket anywhere I have travelled in the country. Guatemalans are not welcomed.


There is no welfare system of which to speak. Birth deformities, accident survivors, and old people beg in the streets like displaced circus geeks, giving drunkards and lazy ass indigenous mothers competition. (Btw, don't give money to those little old poor women sitting on the sidewalk. It only encourages their dishonesty and lack of dignity. I know for a fact they wouldn't work if you offered them something to do. Fuck 'em.) 

A chink shall never become a real beaner and don't you forget it, muchacho!

Ecologically, recycling is still a fad. Automobile pollution is just another one of those things that can't be helped---like solving kidnappings or crime, in general. And, last among the least, the well memorized advisory: DON'T DRINK THE WATER.   

But, wow, now Juan and Carlos can giggle and introduce the other as his husband. Progress.

Kidnapped son to be returned to U.S. father...FOR REAL

-


 BREAKING NEWS: Brazil Supreme Court Chief Justice Gilmar Mendes has ordered the spiteful Brazilian family to (get real and) rightfully hand over the nine-year old child to his American father, ending what was expected to be another two months wait. Mr Goldman, the father, has waged this legal fight for five years and, so, is not taking anything for granted until he has his son in his arms back home in New Jersey.

The step-father, himself an attorney from a prominent lawyer family, and the lot just don't get it. The mother committed a serious breach of international agreement and, as far as I'm concerned, nothing short of a crime in transporting the child to a foreign land and cutting off access to his biological parent. The maternal grandmother penned a letter to President Lula de Silva in which she stressed:

Our moral foundation values the mother's role. In the absence of the mother, the raising should be done by the grandmother. That's how it's done in Brazil, from north to south, regardless of race, religion or social class. It's natural that foreigners, with a different foundation, would not understand these authentically Brazilian feelings.

Um, hello to Third World: that's sexist bullshit.
But, hey, you'll always have Carnaval!

On marriage. A brief criticism

-
Goes the old joke: Marriage is a sacred institution - (cheeky pause for effect) - And who wants to be in a institution, right? Hahaha, oh Burt you're a gas!If marriage was ever questioned before - and it has been -- then its meaning(?) in the present is even more questionable. Amid shamefully high divorce statistics - granted on shamelessly stupid bases like "irreconcilable differences" which, I thought, were already covered in the avowed for-better-or-worse part of the nuptials -- and irrational acquiescence to homosexual howling for, what, tolerance? acceptance? or, ironically, normalcy? the thing I grew up knowing as marriage is dissolving into a whatever.


 

Outside of title and/or financial assets I cannot comprehend why so many people are so damn eager to enter into a marriage

One part of me dislikes this. I disdain senseless upheavals of order and sensibilities along with false revolutions and their charlatans be they catchy slogans (Be all you can be...in the US Army) or misunderstood "hip" icons (Che Guevara) irregardless of my subscription to the societal norm or regime, whichever the case may be. Men have no business "marrying" - yes, I use quotation marks - other men (and, of course, the same applies to dykes).

Another part of me cares terribly little in as much I, personally, don't see marriage an attractive venture. Outside of gaining title and/or financial assets I cannot comprehend why so many people are so damn eager, homosexuals especially, to enter into a marriage. The stigma of "living in sin" or co-habitation is hardly existent, enough suckers have already bailed, id est divorced, to clue in would-be suckers to beware, monogamy, though dime-book romantic, is unappealing and contra Nature, a total societal construct if ever there was one; consequently, adultery is highly stigmatized and heavily punished by divorce courts, independence gives way to conformity in a way that leaves many people vexed and justifying their miserable existences to bands of others whom they are obligated to sustain (unless, that is, they esteem their existence via the unskilled act of reproducing), it is expensive financially and emotionally.

A life well lived beats a life long lived

 Studies indicate that married men, on average, live longer than bachelors but, then, isn't that really largely a question of companionship rather than legally binding marriage? I think a life well lived beats a life long lived. Besides, husbands uncommonly outlive their wives. Death for them, like P.O.W.'s, perhaps, may be a sensible and desirable get-out-of-jail-free card.

All this brings me to the latest affront on marriage: a Japanese man has wed his computer. A young Japanese was so committed to his favorite video game that he - swear to God, am not making this up - that he "married" the virtual character before some forty well-wishers or as I regard them, other morons. They met on the video simulation game, Love Plus.

Admittedly, the video game character is controllable and does have big tits but she...is...a...virtual...character. Not real. More unreal than the biggest silicone titties or nip/tuck job known to Man. As far removed from reality as Neverland; Or the thing I grew up knowing as marriage.

One of the major mistakes people make is that they think manners are only the expression of happy ideas. There's a whole range of behavior that can be expressed in a mannerly way. That's what civilization is all about---doing it in a mannerly and not an antagonistic way. One of the places we went wrong was the naturalistic Rousseauean movement of the Sixties in which people said, "Why can't you just say what's on your mind?" In civilization there have to be some restraints. If we followed every impulse, we'd be killing one another.

Monica Lewinsky back in the news

-
Will this bitch just not go away? This woman should try to preserve some dignity, not that any self-respecting man whose mother or sisters are still breathing would marry her, so that some measure of compassion is felt upon reading her obituary.

A tell-all book, Miss Lewinsky? The former president is a Democratic powerhouse and global megastar for democracy and fundraising. His wife is Secretary of State. We have a black president. A country singer is rocking MTV. Much has changed in eleven years but not enough to forget your skanky accomplishments. Really, just...go...away.

Kidnapped son NOT returned to U.S. father

-
BREAKING NEWS: Brazil Supreme Court put the kabosh on American David Goldman reclaiming custody of his abducted son, Sean. Sean is nearly ten years old and has dual citizenship (USA and Brazil) and, according to the latest appeal, is old enough to exert the right to speak for himself in the courts. This means U.S. authorities cannot hand him over to his father today nor in time for Christmas; the earliest window for such a reunion will be in February when Justices return from holiday recess. Bummer.

Kidnapped son to be returned to U.S. father

-When a parent runs off with a child so the other parent cannot have access to the child that is what is universally known as kidnapping---even when the mother does it the act is still kidnapping.

The latest big incident to involve international courts is the saga between David Goldman of New Jersey and his former wife who is Brazilian. The bitch flew down with their son to her native country in 2004 on the pretext of a vacation, then she divorced Mr Goldman and has since refused to return or cooperate with the father in any manner. As a mother she feels entitled to essentially abduct the son because, as so many morons believe, fathers don't really have inherent bonds with their offspring and can't love them as a mother can.

After years of legal wrangling and senseless drama a Brazilian court has finally ruled in favor of Mr Goldman and ordered the boy be taken to the American Consulate by Friday, December 18th to be then returned to his father in America.

Fathers do have inherent rights and must press harder for them. Culturally we are hesitant to acknowledge that papa bears have hearts as well as wallets. We saw practically the same fall-out with little Elian Gonzalez whose mother stole him away from their native Cuba to take advantage of America's Wet foot, dry foot policy, leaving Mr Gonzalez in the dark. Despite conservative media and John McCain's patriotic bullshit opposition Elian Gonzalez was rightly reunited with his father in Cuba; and it remained the right thing for the U.S. government to do in spite of Fidel Castro milking the spectacle for all it was worth.

Shop less, share more

There's a growing voice of Christianity making the rounds this season called the Advent Conspiracy, Christians who are, supposedly shockingly, discouraging consumerism. I fail to see what is in the least shocking or conspiratorial about this.

Shop less, share---give---more is ALWAYS what I've been reminded to do, being taught early on that Jesus is the reason for the season. (Rhyming makes learning easier.) Yes, we received presents---lots of them!---and toured mall displays, sometimes the Museum of Science & Industry's Trees Around the World exhibit, along with driving around neighborhoods shamelessly wishing aloud, "I wished our house looked like that" or "Whoa look at the lights on that tree!" So what.

Stop running yourselves in debt on the pretext of celebrating Christmas

Although we always got gifts it was always slightly doubtful that we would; there remained the threat of adhering strictly to a churchy Christmas: hymns, Christmas play, and rounds of dinner. Sanctified but square...like Catholics. In retrospect I realize our parents were bluffing (I think) but as a child the prospect appeared anything but. And there was, naturally, no way to argue against the holy spirit of the holidays. Unlike beastly children today we knew it was incorrect to expect, as if our little asses were entitled, to receive more than a bag of fruit and nuts and socks or underwear. Swear to God.

Therefore, when I read in the Times article how the Advent Conspiracy founders, which, to be clear, have nothing to do with Seventh Day Adventists, resolved to embark on "a radical experiment" in which "they urged congregants to spend less on presents for friends and family, and to consider donating some of the money they saved as a result" I thought to myself, Radical? Huh? Radical is installing a menorah or goddamn Buddha piggy bank in a Christian house of worship, including those comically lame store-front churches. I don't shop from car trunks, visit alley way doctors or worship in what used to be porn cinemas or laundry mats. Tacky.

The Advent Conspiracy is launching the right message but there is nothing radical about it: Stop running yourselves in debt on the pretext of celebrating Christmas. Rather than fuss and bah-humbug the absences of "Merry Christmas" and Nativity displays be a stalwart follower or more altruistic human being and donate monies to charities and poor peoples. It would be a wiser and definitely more Christian use of one's pay checks than the greed, lust, envy vices perpetrated by retailers.

So if retailers report that consumerism was down this season, fine. What good is a Sony Playstation if the light bill ain't paid.

Most people if given less than half an opportunity will still gladly make fools of themselves. If within range of a camera they will proudly record it. Stupidity for posterity, I suppose.

Limbaugh dropped & Taitz dismissed

-
Two Obama-hating clowns got smacked down today: big, fat racist idiot, Rush Limbaugh and bitter, delusional racist Orly Taitz.

Pigman Limbaugh was dropped---dropped like a bag of poison oak---from the group seeking to buy the St Louis Rams football team. While his fans fired off emails of support his friends gave him the boot because, unlike fans who have nothing to do with the man except rant their white men's burdens and encourage his rantings, his friends are about business and having Mr Limbaugh in the group was detrimental to business. As a blind supporter of failed businessman Geo. W. am sure Mr Limbaugh can appreciate a rational move, e.g. dropping his fat ass, made by businessmen who actually aim to make a profit from a lucrative investment.

Said the leader of the bidding group Dave Checketts:

It has become clear that his (Limbaugh's) involvement in our group has become a complication and a distraction to our intentions.


Good old Orly got her birther ass handed to her by Judge Clay Land who got tired of her numerous conspiratorial suits against the President's citizenship. Undaunted by her initial dismissal Dr Taitz kept on filing suit after suit with the aim of exposing our President as a non-American illegal alien. Not only was the case thrown out this time and called "frivolous" but she was fined $20,000 with the hope that it might encourage her to get a life.

Or as Judge Land wrote:

[using the Court] as a platform for a political agenda disconnected from any legitimate legal cause of action.

Damn, that's gotta smart. But, of course, this only means one thing to these Republican nutters: more incentive to hate our black president!!

What's in Limbaugh's luggage??

!!COVER GIRL, INDEED!!

Republicans: Racist & Retarded

-
The Republican Party has shown itself in the past two weeks to be so blindly racist and retarded that they will root against the United States of America just for spite. They really hate having a Negro as commander in chief. Remember, one of the first admissions of GOP bitterness came from, to borrow Senator Al Franken's book title, big, fat idiot Rush Limbaugh who publicly declared, "I hope Obama fails."

Wm. F. Buckley, Jr, Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater would have nothing to do with these hate-mongers.

Conservatives, who cast their lot with the Republican Party as if bound by an obligatory umbilical cord, express resentment and paranoia at EVERY thing the President does. When he addresses schoolchildren the conservatives cry, Brainwashing! When he confers with our allies the accusation is 'elitism'; when with our enemies, a sell-out. The go-it-alone cowboy diplomacy of W. gained us nothing but, hey, progress and cooperation are overrated.

Republicans want no loyalty paid to the President. (Un-American?) They want no civility paid to the President. (Disrespectful?) They lust for President Obama's---America's---failure just so they can squeal with retarded glee, We told ya so! And by extension, That's what ya git fer ilecking a smarty blacky! This is today's GOP; Wm. F. Buckley, Jr, Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater would have nothing to do with these hate-mongers.

Thankfully, these people (some prefer to call themselves birthers) do not travel abroad and, so, their willful anti-Americanism and hatred stays at home, sparing other peoples 1) a face to finally associate with a Bush voter and 2) the embarrassment of asking, Are you really American?

President Obama v. the Fear

President Obama awarded Nobel Peace Prize

-
I was travelling on the autobahn this afternoon when the radio announced that President Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize. Not understanding German I doubted the driver translated correctly; but when I reached Berlin I rushed online and read the news: President Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize.

Holy cow!

His detractors celebrated his failed campaign for us to host 2016 Summer Olympics---talk about "un-American"!---but let's see: Olympics host...Nobel Peace Prize...? Naw, there is no comparing the two. And the President didn't even campaign for this one!

2002 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Jimmy Carter applauded the Committee for making a "bold statement of international support for his [Obama's] vision and commitment." Al Gore, 2007 Nobel Peace Prize winner, echoed the accolades and support.

Eat that Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck.

here is a list of Peace Prize winners since 1980

APA is pro-gay

-
The American Psychological Association (APA) now declares at least one form of therapy to be bogus: gay-to-straight counseling. They've yet to come clean on the other 1002 expensive, useless, intrusive batteries administered by equally expensive, spuriously useless, utterly intrusive psychologists. But this bias towards gayness is amazing.

Of all human behaviours and misbehaviours the APA would have us believe that, above all, sexual behaviour cannot be manipulated? Gay-to-straight therapy is not just about a homosexual person working towards functioning heterosexuality; it is, in sum, about sexual orientation. If a same-sex orientation cannot be helped, changed, altered, redirected then where does this leave sexual offenders?

By declaring worthless and bigoted any therapy which aims homosexuals towards normal opposite-sex behaviour, the pro-gay APA, in effect, repudiates all psychological treatments for healthy sexual behaviour.

I do not accept this foolishness because it discredits will power, volition, ambition, re-education. It means pedophiles cannot turn away from pedophilia; adulterers cannot refrain from adultry; rapists cannot resist raping; incestmongers cannot refrain from incest; chronic masturbators cannot keep their hands off themselves; animal molesters cannot turn away from bestiality; porn addicts cannot keep from porn; sadists cannot enjoy sex without inflicting pain, and masochists cannot enjoy the same without receiving pain; and arsonists who get off from arsony are hopeless fire bugs.

The un-happy homo is happy but he just fails to realize it

The Association, with its history of whimsical rationalizations and moot diagnoses, confuse happy with healthy and popular with progress, and this comes to the delight of gay-rights activism. Queer activist, Wayne Besen despises groups like Exodus International, which counsels homosexuals away from faggotyness.

"Ex-gay therapy is a profound travesty that has led to pointless tragedies," cheered Mr Besen, "and we are pleased that the APA has addressed this psychological scourge.

Many buggers, like Mr Besen, Boy George, and Merchant Lucas, are in flamboyant bliss (happy) but that does not mean the glad activity is 1) okay or healthy and 2) okay or healthy for everyone else. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that many practicing homosexuals or homosexually curious persons are not happy with themselves. They want to change and have done so. They want to be straight. They want to be ex-gay. Too bad, according to the APA (and folks like Mr Besen). The un-happy homo is happy but he just fails to realize it. Put another way, Go wallow in your cum-dumping, Tom of Finland and boy-love misery until you get loud and proud.

Two snaps and a bag of chips, Dorothy!

This means a man is what he is and he cannot change, let alone hope, to be any thing different. His track is laid for him and his destiny is sealed. Well. If that's the nail in the coffin, then what further need have we for psychologists?

UPDATE: Exodus International apologizes and shuts down.

Organized religion is a business

-
Organized religion is a business like any other by which I mean it's aim is to make money to perpetuate itself. Some would even call it a scam for its oceanic clause: buy in now and receive riches beyond your imagination when you die. So it is a bit perplexing that homosexuals, characterized by their love beliefs in sodomy, instant gratification, casual hook-ups, cruising, want acceptance from churches; but, then, they so want to be accepted.

And acceptance is a-coming.

Days ago the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America voted overwhelmingly to permit openly homosexuals to serve as clergymen(and women). Not just members but actual pulpit leaders. Gone are the days where one reserved his same-sex urges in deference to his holy faith. The one caveat is this: said sodomites must be in "committed relationships." Presumably because committed relationship means love. Love. Oh if only the world would pipe down and heed the love calls of gays and hippies, it would be a much better, safer, happier place albeit full of head lice and drama queens. Either the 4.7million member business, uh, Protestant denomination doesn't realize many homosexual couples welcome threesomes or will find a way to justify this form of "committed relationship" along church doctrine.

At any rate, this new acceptance will, no doubt, entice open homosexuals back to the coffers, uh, congregation. Gay-friendly means more green. Cha-ching! Let he,she, he-she, and butch dike who hath much disposable income giiiiiiiive to the Lawd!

Going back to Indiana

-
Since Michael Jackson's death his hometown, Gary, Indiana, has garnered more attention outside of the daily police blotter. There's always been stifled debate about turning the Jackson 5 home on 2300 Jackson Street into a proper tourist attraction but too, too many mice and no balls means the cat never gets her bell necklace.
More than anything else, local resentment of the family's fame and success killed the trip to the historical registry...and we all know Gary knows killing. Even the city's historical society skims over the Rock&Roll Hall of Famers.

But now da Mayor Pink Panther is all abluster about turning the Jackson house into a point of interest. Beating his cuff links to the punch, though, are two entrepreneurial women from Chicago experienced in guided tours who have started the "King of Pop Hometown Tour," a four-hour long bus tour from Chicago through Gary.

Hmmm, now why didn't someone from G.I.! or Lake County think of this...?

"Death to Obama" and militia nuts

-
As if President Obama, the first black president of the USA, doesn't have enough to worry about upon inheriting an economic recession, quagmire wars, and stuck-on-Bush ring-wing haters perpetuating division in the "United States of America," now the President---and the nation---has to register the scope of blatant hatred from some extremely vocal whites and Republicans.

Maybe these haters are not such a "minority." They certainly are not silent. But, more importantly, they certainly are not the majority! Birthers, Rush Limbaugh, militia enthusiasts which are cropping up in the country like illegal immigrants' extended family members, and bitter ass white citizens all hate our President.

They can't stand that Barack Hussein Obama is their president! In fact, they feel bold enough to protest with loaded guns and billboard death threats that actually declare "Death to Obama" (see above image).Whoa!

Anywho, that fool with the death threat sign has now been arrested by Secret Service and so of course neo-conservatives, of all people, are shouting comparisons to KGB and Nazi Germany. Poor losers, petty minds, bitter hearts. My, my, my is this what they mean about the South rising again?
