Puppetry of the Penis and the Religious Right

Oh My God
Puppetry of the Penis
and the outrage of the
Religious Right
An ad was placed in the Weekend Cue Section of the Journal Sentinel and the Religious Right went bonkers. How dare they post an ad for the Puppetry of the Penis called the Re-Erection Tour? I suppose they think that this blasphemy's the Resurrection of Jesus Christ on Sunday. Personally I think their timing is perfect and the Religious Right who by the way are anything but is brilliant. Of course somehow they trying to spin it around to include the Homosexual Agenda, intimating that this is part of our agenda. How stupid can they be? This is a show by heterosexuals primarily for heterosexuals. Leave it to the progressive English to come up with something so totally sacrilegious.

Boys and Girls this is the free advertising they are looking for.
Hooray for the Stupid People
You religious morons
You fell for it Hook Line and Sinker
Way to go (wink)

Here's a link to the You Tube Ad

I dont know about you but I woulden't miss this one for the world.

Obama and his Minister a Theory

Someone is playing dirty politics trying to use the race card to discredit Mr Obama. We know that the Clinton Camp is getting desperate and has been known to use dirty tricks to discredit Mr Obama. One of her associates was fired when the press found out about it.

McCain's camp has been very quiet lately. Too quiet is you ask me. Occam's razor points to the Clinton Camp but it also hints at McCain. In that sense I would eliminate McCain. Either way he has to run against one or the other.

My choice is Clinton. The reason is that the race is way too close. No one is squeaky clean and Obama certainly is no angel. Its just that he is smart and never got himself in any trouble that would cause irreparable harm to his political career.

So why not dig up some fire and brimstone minister and play the race card. Prejudice still runs deep in parts of our country and many African Americans especially older ones still deep down inside harbor anger and even deep seated hatred for the way they were treated during the 50"s and 60's. It is unfortunate that his type of thing still exists, but it does whether we like it or not.

I sincerely hope that the Right Wing Bigot gets caught and prosecuted. This country needs change desperately and Mr Obama may just be the one to do it. The big question still remains, did the minister do it without thinking or did someone pay him off to do it. Only time will tell.

No Price Gouging in '06 Oil Prices. Lies all Lies

How interesting that the FTC should find no profiteering or price gouging on behalf of the Oil Companies or the suppliers so says an article in the Washington Post.
I'll tell you what is actually happening at least from my point of view. The Suppliers and the refineries in the USA are purposely cutting down on the supply of gasoline in order to drive the prices up. the so called demand is purposely not being met driving up prices. Using excuses such as hurricanes and other minor disasters for the reasons for the slow down in production which as a result increases prices. The war in Iraq which has caused nuch hatred for the USA has had an influence on friends of these countries to follow suit restricting or slowing production driving up the price of crude oil.
Yes I agree that part of the problem is demand fueled by our obsession with gas guzzling cars and a lack of incentive to switch to alternative fuels. That and the governments lack of incentive to give tax breaks to farmers growing agricultural products aimed at the bio-fuel market. There is some truth to their argument but the rest is just plain hog wash.

Karl Rove, Adviser to President Bush, to Quit

I know that I haven't written as much as I should have but this is the best news yet. Karl Rove is quitting. Read the headline in the Washington Post here.

How this White Collar Criminal can leave the White House unscathed is beyond me. If it was up to me I'd go after this guy like there was no tomorrow. I certainly would not allow him the opportunity to ever run for any political office again. his days for being the strategist and mouth piece for any politician is at an end and I for one hope it stays that way.

Now what we have to do is drive the rest of the mongrels out of office and clean house, and ultimately dilute Bush's influence to the point that he has absolutely no influence whatsoever. Uncover as much wrongdoing in the Re;publican Party as possible and strengthen the Democratic party so we can have a clear win come the elections in 2008.

I don't know if we would break out the noise makers and throw a party but this is pretty good news to me. What do you think?

U.S. Envoy Offers Grim Prediction on Iraq Pullout

When I first started writing this blog several years ago I indicated that the Iraq War was unwinnable. Several times I indicated that the Iraqi government could not get its act together and was at best apathetic in its attempts to either train or muster any kind of militia in order to counter terrorist attacks. President Bush along with Congress gave Iraq a time line to either get their act together, train troops or get an army together to fight on their own. So far this has not happened. We have sent even more troops over there to assist without any noticeable effect.

Now comes a story from the New York Times Now the Senate wants to conduct another study on the effects of a troop pullout on the country of Iraq. This is incredible. Were all these guys all out for lunch while people like me were screaming from the rooftops telling them that the country is going to implode upon itself with or without our help and they are going to sink into civil war. We have also have been telling them that other neighboring country's will enter Iraq and try to conquer and take over at least some of the country. Nothing we do is going to stop this, I am afraid.

The sooner we pull out the better. Otherwise we are only postponing the inevitable, like it or not. Instead we have a Senate who wants to debate it to death because they are all a bunch of Cowards afraid to stand up to our Bully President.

Personally I hope they Impeach the bastard and get him out of office before he can cause even more damage that he already has. If we do however it is my hope that we have someone with the guts to end this thing once and for all.
Ain't that the truth?

Bush thumbing nose at the Constitution

We have a president who has thumbed his nose at the Constitution ever since he was put into office as the Chief Executive. The Constitution enumerates the powers given to the President which he is to abide by during his term in office. Unfortunately Congress has given him additional powers which were intended to be used sparingly to veto unjust provisions of law enacted by government officials (the House and Congress) that might overstep its authority. It was not designed to circumvent reasonable provisions enacted by Congress. A current article in the Washington Post shows how the President has methodically abused his powers and has asserted that he feels that he is not bound by rules promulgated by the powers that be intended to put the brakes on this abuse of power, which as far as I am concerned borders on impeachment if it continues. Aside from the fact that this has been one of the Worst Presidents to serve in the history of the USA. This abuse of power can not continue. I call for the House and Congress to wither censure or impeach Mr Bush if he continues on this path.

The article lists a staggering list of offences that are occurring. We can not allow these things to continue. We must take action Now. We must send a clear message that this type of action will no longer be tolerated and may lead to impeachment if it continues.

U.S. Arming Sunnis What are they thinking?

From a Washington Post article. You got it. What are they thinking? Giving arms to the Sunnis to fight old Al Qaeda allies. Now let me get this straight. They were allies once now they are not. This war is really confusing. One group hates the other and are at civil war with each other and we are hoping that they will stop fighting and form a Democracy which as our wonderful leader Mr Bush (who I'm sure is absolutely clueless) thinks will stabalize the country once again. Now the military is providing arms to one side to fight the other. What are they thinking? Or are they? Oh yeah let us not forget they tested this and it worked in one little area of the country and although it is risky, it just might work elsewhere. Did somebody slip LSD in the drinking water? We have the military who have no clue as to what to do to get the country which is steadily colapsing in upon itself back to some form of normalcy, whatever that is?

I think we eventually have to face the fact that what we are doing isn't working. Not only that it is making everything worse. Nothing we have done has been the least successful. I hate to say it but this is an unwinable war and the sooner we realize it the better. Giving weapons to the enemy is stupid and counterproductive to say the least. What we really need to do is to stop what we are doing and start packing and get out. That is the only logical thing to do.
Ain't that the truth?

A Longer Stay In Iraq? Who are you kidding?

An article in the Washington Post envisions a longer stay in Iraq, perhaps it suggests several more years or longer. Who are they trying to kid ? Granted given the amount of military equipment in Iraq now, it will take a substantial amount of time to extricate us from the country. Toward the end of the article one of the Generals said "We had previously 'transitioned' ourselves into irrelevance, and the whole thing was going to hell in a handbasket," a senior official commented in an e-mail. I find that astonishing that it took them this long to figure that out. Incredible.
First of all we do not have to fight their battles. That is obviously useless given that they can't or won't fight themselves. The Iraqi effort has been half-hearted at best. What we should do is pull out of the northern cities and move as much equipment toward the Kuwait border as possible. Something I would call a strategic retreat until all the equipment is close to the border, then we can concentrate on bringing everyone and everything home.
No matter what we do the country is falling into chaos. All of our efforts have failed to stabilize any part of the country, so why waste any more time than we have to? That makes sense to me. What do you think?

More discontent with Congress

The Washington post has reported that Americans are not only unhappy with President Bush handling of Iraq but also with the way the Democrats have been handling the pressure from the White House and the Republicans. It seems to me and a lot of others that they have consistently caved in to pressure from Bush and from his zealot Republican cadre in both the Senate and House.
"Deep public skepticism about Iraq, concerns about the Democrats and Bush, and near-record-high gasoline prices appear to have combined to sour the overall mood in the country. In the new poll, 73 percent of Americans said the country is pretty seriously on the wrong track, while 25 percent said things are going in the right direction."
I've said it time and time again, the sooner Bush is out of office the better. I really can't believe that the Democrats can be so cowardly with the Bully tactics that the Bush administration is foisting on us. Come on Guys, for Pete's sake get some backbone and stand up to them.

THE CONSPIRACY ON GAS PRICES
I personally believe that there is a conspiracy going on with the oil cartel and those supplying the gasoline that runs our cars. Whether you believe it or not the oil producers and refiners are manipulating the prices. They are purposely slowing down production in order to raise prices. Along with that they are using lame excuses such as some inconsequential natural disaster to blame the slowdown on. I don't believe that for one second and neither should you. Another thing I have noticed is the rise in the gas prices on the weekend and lowering by midweek. It happens EVERY week. They then sneak the price up a penny or two once in a while steadily rising the price to barely tolerable levels.
I think what the American people need is Government regulation NOW! Granted we don't have infinite supplies, but we don't need to gouged at the pump either.
Hey am I right or what? Give us your opinion.

Justices rule that EPA can rule of Green House Gasses

Both the Washington Post and the New York Times reported that the Supreme Court in a 5 to 4 ruling that the EPA can rule about harmful gasses such as carbon dioxide emitted by vehicles and factories and power plants. If it says that if it can't, they must come up with a viable scientific reason not to.
How any body can be so stupid is beyond me. This is what I call the Ostrich effect that if you bury your head in the sand and ignore the glaring signs that trouble is brewing, perhaps it will go away. NOT. Increasingly more and more cars are being sold and driven instead of public transportation or car pooling which will lessen the problem. Face it we are lazy and we are getting fatter because of it. We take the easy way out instead of the healthy way and hoofing it or using alternative transportation.
Why not bikes? They are relatively safe. Are great for exercise and don't use gasoline therefore not producing green house gasses. Besides how many fatalities have your heard about involving bicycles have you heard recently? And how about Drunk Drivers? Make them ride bikes. That will solve a lot of problems too.
Back to the point, this is a prime example of Big Business and Greed influencing government agencies in order to make a buck. It is a prime example of the uncaring attitude of our current administration about the future of mankind. We must come to the realization that our Earth is fragile and if we are not careful it may be the end of civilization as we know it. If we are not careful and reverse the trends now, it may be too late.
Ain't that the truth?
