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.
How's that song go? Don't cry for meeee Braziiiil....

AP honors Serena Williams Female Athlete 2009

All right!! Serena is so deserving of the honor. She was, hands down, the only standout athlete in 2009 to say nothing of the sport of tennis, alone.

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

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.

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.
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.
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.

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.

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.

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

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 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 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.
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.

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