They Are What They Is!!

Confusion reigns in my light deprived mind.....Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly, Bachmann, Palin, Limbaugh, Faux News, CNN and more journalistically deprived voices. There are Communists roving the country, radicals in the White House, a dark force creating socialism, Nazis about, religion promoting Marxist concepts such as social justice, Obama is Hitler, blah, blah, blah. One wonders whether the intention is to create utter confusion, obfuscate legitimate issues or simply to alienate the public completely. Then the teabaggers strike with their brand of gray areas mixing militias, racism and confusing logic with equally clouded minds and misspelled signs.

Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities." -- Voltaire

Ironically, those main voices urging the susceptible masses have their own background flaws:

O'Reilly not only avoided the military draft by fleeing to England, but had to pay out $15 million to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit. He claims a working class backgrounds (father was a CPA and mother a physical therapist-hardly blue collar!), but could afford Marist College and England. Here is the actual 22 page lawsuit filing; read and see what really motivates O'Reilly as well as an interesting website devoted to his lies:

Beck.....drug and alcohol abuser for nearly two decades not only ruining himself, but his marriage as well. Paranoid ramblings not only disdain anything closely related to historical fact, but border on something Joseph Goebbels would be proud of. Beck claims college wasn’t necessary since he learns everything from reading. Check it out:

Hannity...another dilettante belonging to the Joe McCarthy school of truth abandonment. Now he and equally flawed Oliver North are being investigated by the IRS for possible misappropriation of funds from the nonprofit Freedom Concert. Hannity and North created the organization, but very little of the $10 million has gone to help the target group, deceased Veterans' families and disabled GIs. Apparently, Hannity and North enjoyed the good life while continuing to shout out their undying dedication to those injured or killed in war. Of course, Hannity's teabagger love caused his superiors to pull him from a recent gathering where he had decided to broadcast from.

Palin is someone too much has been written about. She has earned $12 million since July espousing conservative "values" which transforms into violence incitement, tax evasion, ethics charges and harassment of her former brother-in-law. Meanwhile her family "values" have been forsaken witnessed by daughter, Willow, breaking into homes with her friends, partying and then arrested by state police. Of course, that "influence" saw only the male revelry makers indicted while Willow and other women were mysteriously left out. Palin has had many family issues, but focuses instead on mediocre cable shows on Fox and the Discovery channel. Both are ratings disasters since she faked interviews with LL Cool J and Toby Keith for Fox; and was an environmental disaster for Alaska. She makes the bucks while her family fades into disenchantment devoid of societal respect for order. 

Limbaugh...another draft evader, convicted drug abuser who used influence not only to avoid military service, but also serious charges for doctor shopping, money laundering, drug purchases and distribution. He mutilates the truth, throws out seditious comments and buffers himself in a sanctimonious sanctification. He needs a life in a cave where whatever goodness possessed can be rediscovered if possible. Another who desires to attain manhood, but is confused.

They are symbolic of a society gone awry; a constituency desiring simple answers to complex questions while milling in a menacing manner egged on by those who manufacture the "big lies" and labels. It would be interesting to compare the criminal records of leading Nazis, whose ideology is thrown out so much to smear, with several of these neocon airheads....

The Statue of Liberty is weeping again........

Whatever

America lost its moral compass somewhere along the line and is having difficulty finding it again. It's not the first time in our short history and unfortunately, won't be the last. Countries are created by human beings and as such grievously err towards some while others applaud. This is the nature of our condition and occasionally a check is needed on the condition of our condition.

Sadly, the Bush Administration corrupted journalistic ethics by not only paying various pundits to echo their opinions, but provided special dispensation to corporate news owners. Fairness was swept aside for volatile content, falsities, video editing out of context and overall, enough to make the hallowed likes of Chet Huntley, Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite turn over in their graves. Sensationalism has replaced journalistic integrity and racism hints have been accepted as valid comments.

Those of us who recall McCarthy and that red baiting era have been sadly reminded by current techniques and accusatory comments. Talking heads who have contributed very little to our society and less in socially redeeming value constantly belittle the basic concepts this nation was founded upon. Waves of mindless radicalism are whipped up in opposition to the most inane topics such as the President speaking to school children as "brainwashing" or "socialistic" health reform undermining this nation. Ironically, while Americans, Iraqis and Afghans are dying, citizens are suffering from corporate run health plans and a myriad of other issues disregarded in lieu of posturing, falsities and name calling.

There is a major scandal brewing in Washington, D.C., which will impact not only the media, but the entire nation. The origins are in a deposition by a whistle blower named Sibel Edmonds whose former CIA positions gave her unlimited information sources. She has already illustrated corruption among numerous former Senators, nuclear information sales to black markets and evidence of wrongdoing in the highest levels. Commensurately, torture and other acts are still dividing the nation while religious leaders remain silent. Talking heads tout the validity of torture, downplay any hit of Republican wrongdoing and solemnly believe in pushing it all under the table.

Wake up, America!! 60,000 of us died in Vietnam along with 3,000,000 of their citizens for a mistake it took years to admit. Now, young Americans are dying again for another mistake in Iraq that Bush politicians used lies to drag us into. The likes of Beck, O'Reilly, Hannity and Coulter, among others, have not given much to this nation yet feel their message is vital to its survival. Their desire is not consensus, but increased ratings based upon inane statements and rash sensationalism. Talk of socialism or communism is not prefaced by definition, but instead hurled without regard at the President, his staff and appointees.

Its enough to make you sick....

Sarah Palin Resignation News Conference

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Honorable Sarah Palin will address us in her capacity as Governor of the Great State of Alaska for the last time. She has seen her last Russian plane; the last view of Russia from her kitchen; and still has the Bridge to Nowhere. The Governor now speaketh:

Palin: Hi, everyone, I love you and know you love me even though my popularity ratings have nose dived into the Bering Sea. Sad, and just when I needed more per diem, Arctic Cat jackets, PACs and legal defense funds.

Okie, dokey, the problem here is not me; never me, but the media. Our brave soldiers are fighting in Kuwait just so the media can talk about my family. Its an outrage and I am personally mind sick over it!

I know there are 15 months left in my administration since I counted them last night while reading my seven figure book contract. Wow, a hockey mom writing a book and so far I have 252 blank pages. It's a start! Just so much to say about what is needed in this country to make me richer, hire enough attorneys to stay out of jail and maintain some kind of presence.

The Media is bad. Katie Couric, Charles Gibson and the rest asked me questions I wasn't prepared for and probably never will be. It was disgusting to sit there and have to think about what publications I read or my qualifications for vice-president. I read a lot, sometimes even more and really enjoy book pictures. Told them what a VP does, but too illiterate to understand. They should be ashamed as I am.

I will continue to further my agenda which is ever changing and promote good Americanism when it happens. Good Americanism is defined as whatever gives me more power, more account money and the ability to say things that don't make sense to dumb Americans. Its that simple and now I can do it with a seven figure book deal. $150,000 in two months for clothes was a spit in the old bucket!!

The silly ethics charges still plague me and recently I failed to respond to one about my legal defense fund. You know, there are some great sales out there and THEY claim I used the money wrongfully. Now, by law, I have to appear to defend myself. Don't they know I am the Governor Emeritus and don't have to do diddly. The Great Dick Cheney is in the same boat, but he sent his daughter out to defend his lawlessness. I can't do that since mine don't know what to defend and frankly, neither do I. Its a tough world for a hockey mom out of work and no pension.

It was all these cowpie bloggers that made me decide to resign, but a new saying went in the book: pulling a Palin. I really haven't quit that much, but perhaps a lot, but in a minor sense. Frankly, I resent calls to see my notarized high school diploma. Just another media trick to humiliate my Family, but it is difficult to recall which high school I quit. I went to four colleges and must have graduated from one. As of this moment, this hockey mom is a private citizen and will campaign for just about anyone if the price is right.

I am for good old American capitalism! Capitalism and not this silly socialism Obama stands for. Socialism is defined as anything that resembles My Space, FaceBook or Twitter without a profit. Twitter carries my message, but not far enough. People, I need a platform, preferably with a seven figure salary, to convey the message of the Republican party, the Alaska Independence Movement, oops, never mind, and other options which grant me stipends, contractual endoments, et. al.

Finally, being Governor of this Great State has been a blast. Doing absolutely nothing for months while lining up deals is one of the greatest enjoyments of life. Working at home, collecting the big per diem bucks, flying the kids on the state dole, spending more time out of state promoting myself rather than assisting with Alaskans home fuel crisis and finally, convincing the Republican big wigs I am a viable candidate for higher office is stressful. Hockey moms know how to handle this and I will always keep an eye on Putin over there who poses a threat to our way of life.

Nuff said....I am out of here, got to see my lawyers, bitch about Tina Fey though she provided good publicity (SNL paid good bucks), handle some ethics problems and make sure my ex-brother-in-law has some more issues. No questions since my hair can't take it. My kids will be along soon and you can ask them. This is Sarah Palin saying you won't have me to kick around any more and neither will I.

The Media sucks...now I have said it. Folks, don't believe anything they say about me, Todd, my Family or money I allegedly took under the table. or contractors who built our house for free. I have mouths to feed, wolves to shoot from helicopters and sponsors willing to pay for my mind...not much, but enough. Remember, American Capitalism is the best in the world and I, Sarah Palin, believe in attaining as much capital as possible. I'm gone, but have to remember what high school I attended....hmmmmmmm.

Wait, one more thing!! There is a rumor out there about Todd and I divorcing. Not true since he owes me too much and my religion forbids it, I think...will have to check with witch doctor. The despicable, uncouth National Enquirer is quoting 4 people as saying I had an affair with my husband's former business partner, Brad Hanson whom Todd divorced shortly thereafter for some reason. They even claim possession of a notarized statement, but whoopy do! I don't even know what an affair is much less engage in one. Would I dare do this after my daughter had a child out of wedlock and then after that scoundrel father of her baby, Levi, went about the country saying we knew he was doing the horizontal tango with her in our own house. Nein, nadda, nix, not so.! We don't even know what goes on in our own house much less someone having sex with our daughter...geeeeesssssshhhh. Okay, no affair, honest, no affair, I was Wasilla Mayor and much too busy building the Bridge to Nowhere, our free, oops, our house, making deals and driving the city into $23 million debt. Out of here again....Bye Alaska...why no response back? Why no cheers? Damn liberals!!!

If Dreams Could Come True

Each of us possess dreams and fantasies which nfluence our daily lives. Here are some of mine:

1. George W. Bush Jr. is sentenced to live in an African-American neighborhood; followed by Hispanic; then Native American, etc. He experiences a transformation, hires a ghost author, and authors a book entitled: "I Was A Druggie In The ANG."

2. Dick Cheney travels to North Korea where he tortures snow drifts, watches people starve due to a truly totalitarian society craved and seldom appears on television.

3. O’Reilly goes to the Vatican where he proudly brags to the Pope about his sexual harassment suit costing $15 million to settle; and deflates when Pope waves it off as small potatoes.

4. Hannity enlists in the Marines, fights in Afghanistan and develops some honor. He later starts a chicken farm in Illinois, but is busted for using steroids to hype roosters. Old habits die hard.

5. Glenn Beck...transplant him to Montana where he can spout civil insurrection all day long, join a militia and live out his life in a closet along the river of no return.

6. Ann Coulter joins a convent and lives cloistered by walls blanketing her spouting hatred thus precluding book sales at any cost.

7. Michelle Malkin develops writers’ block and lip syncs to Ashley Simpson lip syncing all day long.

8. Michael Savage journeys back to Europe, is kidnapped by nudists, transported to Bornholm and joins a colony after admitting he has a small mind and member to match.

9. Rush Limbaugh admits he was arrested for male pandering in Pittsburgh, avoided the draft due to all those "guys" and daddy's influence, took oxycontin repeatedly to develop a stiffy thinking it was Viagra, gets a thrill knowing a whole lot of Republicans listen religiously to him though his past includes job firings, money laundering, drug abuse, doctor swapping, etc., that Repubs normally criticize Democrats for not doing more to arrest; and eventually ends up in a delusional house of ill repute selling venereal disease information to the willing.

10. Rep. Michelle Bachman, MN, spends her career after losing the election lecturing loons in northern Minnesota on all the Washington evils, revising history and pointing out the inane in illogicality.

11. Sen. John McCain returns to Hanoi to pick up copies of the 50 films, verified by Rep. Bob Dornan, taken of him with his “special” nurse while he supposedly being tortured, but while there relapses into giving radio broadcasts and narrating propaganda films again that don't exist.

12. Dick Morris, already convicted of using a prostitute, decides his foot fetish can be done legally. Enrolls in a School of Podiatry and specializes in bunions to satisfy his obsession.

13. Mark Sanford and John Ensign found the School For The Heavenly Sanctification of Extramarital Relations and Economic Gain on C Street, Washington D.C. Special consultant is Jeff "Bootsy" Gannon and Alberto "Help Me Find Honor" Gonzales.

14. Lou Dobbs is fired from his broadcasting position and settles in Leadville, Colorado, where he addresses beautiful stands of trees each morning on the birther question, illegal immigration and his need for more brain cell regeneration.

15. H. Gordon Liddy, renown Watergate felon and former disbarred Boy Scout, discovers his mustache has transferred to his posterior and remains confused remainder of his life.

Toodles

The nature of our politicians has become increasingly hard to understand. On one hand, the usual talk of patriotism, adhering to citizen's wishes, blah, blah, is there; on the other is, as Freud would say, the dark side. It has become increasing difficult to comprehend elected officials who knowingly accept violation of any law, but it occurs with frequency.

This is not meant to include those elected Congress officials who are arrested by the FBI, etc., for molesting Pages, cocaine running, etc., but rather the sublime acceptance, for example, of the Bush Administration molding any law to their devious wishes. What is about our nature that creates acceptance of unlawful spying on citizens, torture, illegal arrests and holding of minors under the Patriot Act?

More difficult to understand is how proclaimed Christians can describe themselves as such and accept torture. These miracles of mass confusion loudly protest Miss California "losing" due to her proclaiming the sanctity of heterosexual marriage, but remain oddly silent on Abu Ghraib, societal torture acceptance and overall corruption within the past administration. This is an indication of the anthropomorphizing of Christianity to the extent adherents are being driven away in masses thanks to the political schenangigans of Pat Robertson, Franklin Graham, James Dobson and the late Jerry Falwell. Their desire to force societal acceptance of Christianity as the dominant religion has resulted in Americans shying away from their autocratic utterances and prejudicial remarks. Oddly, they seem to forget much in the name of the dollar bill.

The USA is at the moral crossroads and must decide whether to continue hypocritical darkness or renewal with full morality.

The Magic Leaf Parties

Once upon a time in the Land of Oz, brain cell deprived talking heads decided to propagandize the masses by claiming the recently elected Munchkin president was leading them to communism, no socialism, no fascism., no way!! Utter Glen, the more vocal of the fascist chargers, spend long and hard hours trying to convince everyone of the dangers he saw during the day, in his sleep and visions confronting him at night if his meds weren't taken.. Bile Bill could only claim Utter Glen was right and of course, saw the same problems, but in a different light since a recent civil suit resulted in a $15 million payout to a sexually harassed female munchkin. Surreptitious Sean was distraught since he could not think of other ways to twist facts, figures and his own mind to gain more ratings than Bile Bill, ooops, to convince Ozians the peril they were being confronted with.

Thus the Three Pedants were pitched an idea emanating from more powerful beings, the dread Rich Right Wingers, who desired to oust the Great Munchkin President from the Oz Wizard House It was decided to drink more and then challenge the masses to a giant party where the disaffected could feel better through the magic of chemistry and of course, the hallowed Pedants' words. The theme was argued and argued; finally the dread Rich Right Wingers decided it would be called The Magic Leafs Parties after a historical incident years ago where Munchins threw dandelions at the wizard in protest after Dorothy and the Three Amigos revealed the truth about the All Mighty. The Three Pedants were overjoyed and could see their ratings going sky high, but what if the Munchkins masses started thinking. It was agreed this would not occur since most Munchkins had a two week retention rate according to Bile Bill and all smile with glee.

Thus, the Rich Right Wing began spending millions to sponsor Magic Leaf Parties all over Oz for the masses to complain about balderdash and low taxes. Flux News Network quickly forsook any remaining semblance of objectivity and initiated hyping the events as a way for the Munchkins to express their anger. Commercials, talk shows, and even the Wicked Witch pitched in to support the events. The Three Pedants agreed it would be a solid message to the Munchkin President of their anger and despair.....hopefully causing him to fail. Of course, never once did they consider the failure of the president also meant the failure of Oz....but who cares when ratings are involved?

Alas and Alack, the magic day came and went. The Magic Leaf party went down in flames due to the violent ramblings of a few who Flux News chose to show on the air. As in the past presidential election, the Republwicans could not resist making inflammatory statements and the vocal weird inflamed minority spouted very extreme balderdash in return. The Republwican candidates, both supported by the Wicked Witch, did not disclaim the violent statements and were branded. Thus, the Magic Leaf parties suffered the same fate in addition to displaying a short memory span where balderdash and low taxes originated. In fact, one speaker was booed when he placed direct responsibility on the prior president, Boy In A Bubble Bush, for these problems. Of course, this was true, but no one wanted to hear the truth particularly Flux News.

Flux News attempted to create the best spin, but to no avail. The Magic Leaf parties were disasters leaving the Three Pedants holding the bags. Of course, they could blame the president before Bubble Boy, Wee Willie, for the problems, but that was a time reach. Therefore, the best solution was simply to shout of the great liberal Munchkin plot to destroy the people's message. Of course, an argument ensued over what that message was, who was going to pay some of money back, how the ratings would fall and did anyone have anything to drink.

Noticeably absent during all of these deliberations and event was noted extremist, Dilletante Wush Limburger, who was busy searching for his brain. He was very upset the Scarecrow had beaten him to the punch and daily berated him for his political tendencies. It was sad, but Wush was on a woll and could not be stopped, unless more Magic Pills were needed.

Thus it went in the Land of Oz where neocons and Republwicans blend into one and really can't be differentiated from; not even when the vocal violent minority open their mouths and spout insanity. The Three Pedants like this and blame the Munchkin President for their uttering. Most prefer the Three Pedants just go away referably back to their comfortable lifestyle so far removed from current problems most Ozians are experiencing. Wush, meanwhile, is still searching for his brain, but word has it only one can be dispensed by the Wizard. Poor Wush, he just has to rough it.

Bubble Bursting

Here we are in the year 2009 and the Bush ghost still haunts us. Americans have lost confidence in our large financial institutions and rightfully so since these corporations prefer the dollar over common sense. AIG would rather pay $200 million in bonuses from taxpayer bailout money than save their own corporation. It doesn't take a genius to figure out the Bush influenced financial world is the source of its own demise and obviously their own worst enemy.

Meanwhile, thousands are losing their homes, possessions and ending up homeless. Tent cities are springing up outside of major cities similar to the Great Depression in our past. The definite lack of concern towards these people displayed by major corporations is pathetic. CitiBank and other credit card companies bailed out by taxpayer funds showed their empathy by raising interest rates. The message is simple as given by CNBC messenger Ron Santelli, these people are losers who lost their homes so why give a break. Fantastic Christian values from American corporations showing the best of business darwinism. Meanwhile, no one has really answered who will pick up the pieces; Americans are footing the bill, but who steps forward and puts it all back together again.

Business and journalism ethics have to change to win back confidence of the American public. The flagrant violation of ethics in both professions has caused many to pause and wonder why they are being subjected to such financial and intellectual abuse. The Bill O'Reilly predator tactics, Glenn Beck's doomsaying, and Rush Limbaugh's normal arrogant rantings have cast doubt in the minds of Americans who now wonder what the truth is. Apparently, the Right is angry over losing power and is now intent on retaliating not only on the new President, but all wrong thinking citizens as well.

Overall, it is pathetic! Americans need to pull together to overcome the depression, yet Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter, O'Reilly, etc. want the opposite. They preach the values of despair and gloom while enjoying massive salaries through questionable broadcast tactics. Citizens need to see through this and focus on what is best for all of us.

The bottom line is survival. We need to remember it was 8 years of their thinking that caused this mess and it's not something to be proud of.
