rush limbaugh wants to watch amateur porn?

no seriously, rush limpaw said what?... apparently rush limbaugh used his radio pulpit to call a woman who had the audacity to testify before congress a slut, yes he called her a slut... is that libel or slander?... howard stern said nappy head and what an uproar that caused... but rush didn't stop there, he went on to and demand she video tape herself having sex post them online so he and everyone can watch...

what kind of sleezebag is that guy?...

but then, he never had even a touch of class which is why they threw him off television years ago... he panders to the base hatred and ignorance in humanity and unfortunately, he proves there is still much of it out there and sadly, they seem to identify themselves as republicans... i would think republicans with any intelligence would not stand for such ignorance and personal insult, but then, perhaps that is the true nature defining republicans... i hope that can be proven wrong as they do make up about half of the usa...

These are the companies that pay Rush to insult women and pander for porn. If you give these comapnies money, then you are paying Rush too:

I know I will be avoiding these companies, meaningless as that might be to them... freedom of speech is one thing, but I don't have to pay for a prejudiced porn freak's fetishes to be broadcast nationally... no wonder the USA is becoming a laughing stock and losing respect in this world, why should the world respect us when we don't respect ourselves or each other...

u.s. politics

philosophically there is a difference between the parties, but actions override philosophy and ideals and the actions of the u.s. government over the past thirty years have been hawkish, aggressive, greedy, and bent on world-domination... sheepskin does not change the wolf... we elect politicians, but business interests control them regardless of party affiliation... especially at the top... until we unite against the real enemy, greed and the fear-mongering and divisive finger-pointing that distracts from the greed, we will, just as many empires have before us, continue as a nation down the path of self-destruction from within...

truly meaningless complaint

if you are a taxpayer in the usa, you owe $119,913 to private banks and other countries... rich bankers in this country and others living in obscene luxury by are milking you dry while you struggle to pay your bills and taxes...

and children, what are children learning?... it is ok to go into debt for a few times your annual income and have nothing to show for it?...

anybody want to loan me $119,913 today?

the last resort

the eagles said it so well more than thirty years ago and we did not pay attention because, after all, they said it so well...

we satisfy our endless needs
and justify our bloody deeds
in the name of destiny
and in the name of god



maybe the most meaningless complaint of all... it is challenging to be aware i am part of a species so determined on committing suicide, knowing there are voices pointing this out, watching people ignore and continue destroying themselves and each other... the path to extinction if so obvious and yet, we steadfastly remain devoted to staying the course...

free oil for everyone

free oil for everyone

The 'simple solutions' like hay and straw and other products look great in a small bowl or laboratory, but don't be naive, there's no strainer big enough to scoop millions of tons of soaked straw and hay out of the gulf and even if we somehow had that much hay and straw and a three hundred mile strainer, there's not enough ships in the navy to drag that much weight out of the water... the simple solution was to act swiftly and responsibly, but that was not in BP's interest... and don't look at the government, come on, did you forget katrina and new orleans already?...

government is condemned for over-regulating industry when they do anything before a disaster and then condemned for not cleaning up the mess industry makes after a disaster... responsibility is on the businessmen, their greed did this - and you and me - our dependency on luxuries, oil, and our lifestyles did this... we demand more oil, more energy, more consumer goods, and we don't want to see the costs to the planet nor the risks to ourselves in our blind attempt to have it all...

many people still do not want to see, as the flagging of videos on youtube demonstrates... but the only thing keeping our heads in the sand will do is get us covered in oil, or kicked in our up-in-the-air butts... great nations fall when the people stop caring enough to take responsibility and do the right thing... that's history, and we are living it... and we can only hope enough of us wake up in time to realize what we need to do to save ourselves...

political complaints (they are sadly too easy)

this is why politicians, especially old ingrained politicians, scare me

...

and sometimes leave me speechless... it is not just republicans, though the old republicans do say some of the scariest things and seem to have their heads somewhere so out of touch with actual life that, well, of course the planet will recover, and if humans continue, the planet will make humans extict just like the dinosaurs and every other species that lost touch with natural life and the planet...

that's not a disaster, right, human extinction?...

not for the planet.

who is Don Young, Rep. Alaska?...

not just insensitive and out of touch, but criminal...

invest $40,000 in a politician, get $10,000,000 plus in return

corruption?

The investor was reportedly Daniel Aronoff, son of Arnold Aronoff, who, in 1979, was sentenced to two years in prison after pleading guilty to mail fraud in a scheme to sell Florida swampland at an inflated price. His son found another way, politics as usual, to attempt to increase the value of his Florida swampland by buying a politician.

"It's very possible people ought to go to jail," said Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee, which oversees highway funding.

The worst part of this was that the congressional bill earmarking the ten million dollars did not include this appropriation when it passed the congress and senate. The bill was changed by the Alaskan Representative between the floor of congress and the signing by President Bush. Congress and the Senate never voted to approve the money, Young slipped it in secretly. Does that make President Bush a criminal for signing in the conspiracy to defraud the taxpayers?

what happened after the 2008 call for a federal investigation?

The language requiring the Coconut Road investigation is clear: "Consistent with applicable standards and procedures, the Department of Justice shall review allegations of impropriety regarding item 462 in section 1934(c) of Public Law 109-59 to ascertain if a violation of Federal criminal law has occurred."

katrina drowns new orleans, 2005

yeah, we all know the story... or do we?... did you know about hurricane pam?... pam that did the very same thing to new orleans in 2004 that hurricane katrina did in 2005... you can watch the video and learn a bit about hurricane pam... one year before hurricane katrina devastated, hurricane pam tore the city apart and flooded new orleans almost exactly as katrina did, in a computer simulation...

yes, scientists created a storm, hurricane pam, and entered all the facts they had about the lay of the land, the strength of the levees, where people lived, and all the known facts about the physical city of new orleans into a computer... and then they entered meteorological data for a storm and aimed it toward the city… levees failed and new orleans and surrounding lands ended up under water… the scientists told the government and army core of engineers and you know what they did...

nothing…

in every other arena, someone who has the power to save lives, knows lives could be lost if they do not act, and then do not act and lives are lost... they would be criminally libel for the deaths… I believe it is called criminally negligent manslaughter… the government is guilty of this, but no one holds those in charge who killed people through negligence accountable…

that simply sucks…

trust your government?... what may be worse is the news media, the noble fourth estate that loves to point fingers and dramatize human failure and claims to have a noble mission to tell people the truth, seemed to miss this atrocity… did they deliberately ignore the facts?...

all the news that’s fit to print?

sometimes, humans are nauseating...

a study of humanity (part 4)

grilled breakfast sandwiches, a glimpse of the end of the road for toyota, internet porn, football player proselytizers, fried dead cow patties on buns, preachers arrested for soliciting prostitutes, curdled cow fat on baked bread, 12 year old girls handcuffed and carted out of school for doodling, do unto others as you want them to do, sugar and fat and flour baked with chocolate, excitement over finding video of the challenger exploding, fear the loving god, fried anything, hypocrisy and mental illness everything, and you were distracted by the accident you saw on the way to church… which gets the biggest rise out of you... and why...

what a waste of the potential of the human brain…

humans believe in can’ts and weakness and hate and above all else, fear more than anything else, so they consume delusional explanations and irrational hypocrisy because everybody else does and communal delusions present a placebo to quell the fears…

what a waste of the potential of human life…

meanwhile, if you can get past the depression that such realization can bring, you just might find the amusements available to the awakened mind in this experience of life in this universe…

staring up at the stars each night, do you realize that many of them are not really there because they went supernova (blew up) millions or even billions of years ago?... all you see are the light, like messages in bottles, that was sent out in all directions before humans ever walked on this planet, in some cases, before this planet was even here…

and if that concept does not amuse you, how about the fascination with female breasts?... is it some infantile imprinting that draws most human males to sexual arousal when presented with huge mammary glands, the bigger the better, and yet, most of the same human males are repulsed by fat on most any other part of the female body (though buttocks fat seems to draw an audience)… belly fat, however or neck fat or leg fat, now that is considered unattractive…

but the fat puzzle is not nearly as puzzling (or titillating, perhaps) as the fascination with innocence, virgins, young flesh just a few years past puberty or closer, even… just look at the popular arts, film, tv, music, and if you pretend you don’t see the sexualization of children that sells so well, you may be among the majority of hypocrites condemning in public what you crave and even do in private…

and then there is the phenomenon of legalized poisons, big business and popular pastimes, while condemning and imprisoning and fighting a war on other poisons, some of which are a lot less harmful than your legal poisons… how much money, time, energy, and human life is spent on buying and using the legal poisons and still more money, time, energy, and human life spent on fighting and jailing those who choose the illegal poisons… you need to be irrational and delusional to make sense of it…

all the while, children starve all over the world… earth’s resources and human energy is wasted while children die of starvation and greed and power trips all over the world… from the wealth in the land of the free where children suffer as pawns in divorce, as playthings for adults who want to control anything they can or for priests and parents who condemn their own sexuality while failing to repress their sexual attraction to their children… to the poverty of countries oppressed and condemned by the wealthy nations to remain ignorant and behind the times because we can’t have too many countries equally powerful, especially when they don’t believe in the same delusions and ways of perceiving life and the universe and the unknown that we buy into…

few want to see that the the rich choose to let the poor starve, physically and mentally, while pushing spirituality on them as the answer to all the problems the rich create and ignore… the rich do not want to see it because they do not want to share or lose what they have… the poor don’t want to see it because who wants to face their own powerlessness and abuse…

what a study of humanity shows is that as long as there is the slightest illusion of control, of choice (and what is our cheap consumer culture if not a feast of choice), then the poor are placated and the imbalanced delusions that facilitate oppression can continue… because the fear of loss of control is more powerful than the unpleasantness and cruelty of poverty and illness and suffering of any kind…

if this is pessimistic, prove me wrong...

politics

i do not want to be a democrat or a republican or any blind faith follower of any party or anything... i seldom listen to any politician and seldom listen to or watch the news because i sense a bias so obvious and an agenda so hypocritical and full of subtrifuge that want to puke just thinking that we the people accept the ignoarance they assume we must have... i want to believe that i actually hear what these people are saying...

tonight i hear a president saying some things that made sense and wondered if he would have any influence at all on the politics as usual... watching the ridiculous posing of the congres people and senators, the standing ovations and the seated silence based on party affiliation and obviously not based on what may or may not be right, i wondered why the president did not call all of them out for the hypocrits and posers they were...

so is the president any different?...

not much, he played the same game... and well... but still, in the end, the president gave me a good feeling, a hopeful feeling that maybe something might actually change in washington to bring more fairness and justice to this country... and then i listened to ten minutes of cliche and rhetoric and negativity under the viel of smiling doublespeak, subtle inferences that the president did not say what he just said, carefully phrased juxtapositions suggesting that the president actually said the opposite of what he just said, out and out political campagning that had nothing to do with anything, and meaningless pandering to people's base fears from the republican rebuttal and realized there is very little if any hope for truth or justice in the american way today...

so sad, i hope i don't put myself through this again anytime soon...

happy new year, you're dead

military intelligence


once again tragedy caused by human stupidity brings me to yet another meaningless complaint... it was bad enough that the father of the nigerian boy who was able to get on a plane and nearly blow the plane up called and warned his government and the usa cia about his son who basically told his father 'goodbye' as in 'i will never see you again' (a suicide note type conversation), which did get his son on the usa 'watch list' for possible terrorists (along with 500,000 other potential terrorists), but the security machines, homeland security, the cia, and so on did nothing and the plane would have blown up if the kid knew what he was doing with explosives...

military intelligence may be the ultimate oxymoron...

as is the pattern, the paranoid war hawks who support the big business of war (because it's good for the bottom line and pays for their luxuries which they naturally deserve because they work so hard to protect us from threats they ignore and if we look deeper, actually created in the first place... but most people appear to be may be too stupid to see the obvious) are screaming about limiting our rights and invading our provacy all the more because the only solution they see is totalitarianism and they use terrorists to inch us toward their supreme rule over us... and we are too stupid to call them on their incompetence and fire them... i mean, if you hired a doctor to monitor your heart and he saw a potential danger on your eekg and took no action and you had a heart attacke, you'd not only fire that doctor, but you'd sue him (because lawyers have you trained like salivating dogs to sue doctors)... but the people we pay to protect us hear about potential threats, do nothing, and something like 9-11 happens and what do we do?... we buy the excuses the leaders ell us and rally round the flag and spend trillions of dollars (that we borrow from the chinese and others who are quitely taking over our country economically) on wars that no one can win and ultimately, just fuel the differences between nations and delusional systems of belief that are fundamentally the same...

we won't even get into the voice of reason, rush limbaugh, who is a self-confessed drug addict (rush, a junkie?... never, he's too rish, well connected, and conservative to be looked down upon as most other drug addicts are), or how many people live and die by his word (that he transmits into our lives through a gold-plated microphone) as if it is gospel because we must exhalt and respect and trust a junkie (excuse me, self-confessed drug addict) who can't even control his own self-destructive impulses... alas, further digression, let's get back to the point...

so today the smartest and most important intelligence agents we've got, the ones we sent to the source of our hate and fear, behind the lines to 'enemy territory' to 'protect us', these most trusted military intelligence agents let someone walk into their heavily guarded private secure headquarters and BLOW THEM UP...

yes, i just had to scream...

channelling sam kennison...

and now we'll probably rally round the flag and point fingers at the 'enemy' that we created by abusing our power all over their world for a hundred years because we could, and they had stuff we wanted... still do, actually... what?... what right do they have to hate us or fight us for taking their stuff and telling them their faith in their god is wrong?... would most of you not hate and fight me if i took your stuff and told you quite simply that your faith delusion in your god invisible man in the sky is wrong?... ah yes, dander may be up now... whatever would humans do without an enemy?... believe this (or deny it, but it is the reality you live even if you refuse to see it)... humans are so afraid to love, they must create reasons to hate... and all in the name of the invisible all-powerful man in the sky that they actually mock by preaching love and living hate... but i may digress (what, again?)...

how stupid can people get?...

and when we blow ourselves and this planet to smithereens (do you believe smithereens is heaven?), will there be a god who could have stopped us but let us destroy it all there to welcome us into whatever idyllic place you might imagine and forgive us for our self-destruction for we are just poor frail stupid humans who know not what we do?...

what a waste...

personally, i think you are just playing dumb...
