Surprise, North Korea is still North Korea.

kim-jong-il-cartoonI guess Obama forgot to give little Kimmy boy a hug because the little bastard has been at his finest lately, ignoring all sanctions, treaties and promises,  starting back up his nuke program, launching missiles, not only that but he is currently holding two American journalist hostage, and while I have a general dislike of journalists, the two woman Laura Ling and Euna Lee, don’t deserve to end up in Yoduk, no one deserves to end up in Yoduk, not even Kimmy boy, he just needs a hot lead injection to the frontal lobes and let the devil give him his due. Maybe we should send Jimmy “The Douche” Carter back over there for another talk with the toddler sized tyrant, it worked the last time right?  Wait let’s not go back there, Jimmy “Hamas Stooge” Carter has a tendency to be disastrously incompetent, and even for all of Jimmy “Malaise” Carter’s little misadventure in North Korea, it only got worse from there,  and the last thing the world needs to see is  more photos of Madeline Albright slow dancing with Kim Jong-il, to say the least they both wore heals that night.  Only a shotgun can clear that picture out of your head…

Maybe we just need to understand the little freak and he will play nice with the world?  If you really want understand him read the article I wrote “Letters from the Hermit Kingdom: North Korea and the Kim“, especially the “Mind of the Kim” section.

Let’s be frank here North Korean is a shit hole, that likes to kidnap people, especially South Korean movie stars and Japanese girls,  they steal what little food the populace actually manages to grow and lets the average person starve, in the even that the WFP sends in food, they take it to either resell, take most of it for the party members and send what’s left to the military.  Kim Jong-il even has a whole harem of underage girls for his own personal pleasure, and is also the only fat guy in North Korea, while average person can’t even get a dog to eat because for the most part after 20 years of famine they don’t have very many left.  If you ever have the displeasure of visiting North Korea, and someone offers you dog to eat, I would highly recommend you not eat it, dog meat is often a code word similar to “longpig”, so there is a 75% chance that what you’re eating only yesterday was someone’s sick uncle.  North Korean families will  trade trade their dead relatives for the neighbor’s dead relatives so they don’t have to eat their own own family.  That’s life in North Korea and if you need more reason to stay away there is always the chance you might get arrested for being a “spy”, hell, you don’t even need to be in North Korea for that, the Norks are very good at arresting spies in the part of China that borders North Korea.  They are also good at kidnaping people in other countries that they don’t border, granted they are the best at it in Japan since the Chongryon helps out with that one.

Obammers isn’t going to get this solved though his teleprompter alone.  Kim Jong-il is a bastard and isn’t going to suddenly be a nice little guy after a hug, you tell him not to launch a missile, he will, right over Japan, you tell him not to steal WFP goods, he will, you tell him to stop kidnaping Japanese citizens, he will not listen.  What ever happened to the CIA, do you know how many North Korean defectors would love a chance to go back and get revenge on the  midget king? You don’t even need to send a defector back there, I know we have a bunch of good patriotic men and woman of Korean decent in America we can train up for this mission, send in the SEALS, something.  At least Bush, unlike Clinton, got the Norks to shut down their Nuclear facilities and stop with the missile launches, and for the most part tried not to pay the bribe money the Norks were asking for, he wasn’t perfect but who is, and it can be hard to get things done on the world stage when no one else wants to help, plus you never had to watch Condoleezza Rice slow dance with Kim Jong-il, even though unlike Madeline Albright the thought of Condi dancing with someone  doesn’t give people the urge for shotgun mouthwash, also we know Condi has too much class to be caught on the floor with the Dear Leader.
Now we have Obammers, Kim doesn’t fear Obammers, he Certainly didn’t fear Jimmy “Killer Bunny” Carter, when Carter came down for his lovefest and walked away with a promise that was broken even before he left the country, even Clinton was able to stop chasing fat girls long enough to get annoyed with Carter, although it have have been the fact that he was forced to do something other than chase chunky girls that made him angry, the jury is still out on that one.  All we are going to get out of Obammers is a bunch of concessions to North Korea, in the hopes that we get our people back, and you can ask the Japanese how well that works out.  This is looking like more and more of a win-win situation, but only for the Norks.

Obammers has been spending his time sucking up to despots and apologizing for America for everything, think helpless baby deer in a pool full of hungry alligators, and the deer wants to give everyone a hug and apologize, that’s Obammers foreign policy.  Obammers was in France and not only refused to visit Normandy but spent the whole time apologizing!  Wait, what?    I guess it would have been to much cognitive dissonance for poor little Obama to be standing in the the American cemetery in Normandy while trying to apologize for America’s “Sins”.  Our boys died on those beaches to save the world from it’s sins, like Jesus with an M-1 and a Lucky Strike in his mouth.  Any sin America has committed has been paid tenfold, on that beach, in those fields and a thousand others across the world. Maybe it’s best you didn’t visit the cemetery, your presence there might be considered a desecration of their memories.

Obama looks weak, Kim saw his chance to make more money by trying to get the world to pay him to shut his nuke program down, again,  and went right back to being the bastard he has always been, you would think that Obammer’s teleprompter would have warned him about this kind of thing, it’s not like it doesn’t happen all the time.    When Japan has a more confrontational foreign policy then the POTUS, you have a problem, a very, very large problem.

At least Obama is taking the right step in national defense… wait never mind, if it’s not bad enough Obama isn’t funding the military properly, so much so that the Navy had to stop giving out reenlistment bonuses and can’t fund normal duty rotations and started canceling people’s Change of Station orders, he wants to cut missile defense systems.  Yeah that’s great, asshole.  North Korea is going to have nukes and Pakistan, a country that already has a nuclear arsenal, is giving over large swathes of their country to the Jihadies from the Taliban and all their crazy friends, and Obammers wants to cut missile defense systems.  Um, how long do you think it’s going to be before the Jihadies get some nukes and go on one of their normal killing sprees, only this time with a lot more casualties?

I hate it here…

Maximum the Hormone, the most random Japanese band, or well the most random band on the planet.

Yeah they are the most random Japanese band on the planet, and I know my Japanese bands, hell they might be the most random band on the planet period, but it’s fun and yes the drummer is a girl and she is the one doing that cute singing in the middle of what for all intensive purposes is a metal song.  It’s funny how she plays the drums like she could be in Fear Factory but sings like she should be in a J-pop group, eh it works.   I have one of their albums, every song is like listening to 5 different bands in the same song.

Earth Day is a joke.

It’s Earth Day, Yea!  It’s a wonderful day where people that haven’t learned what soap is and rich hypocrites like Al Gore can feel extra smug about how good they are, and tell us how much they love the planet we are killing.  Fuck all of them.  Really here’s an idea for you if you want to lower your CO2 emissions stop breathing, we have to do is every time we get within 50 yards of one of you bastards otherwise the smell might kill us, I think you can try it a little too.  It’s also Lenin’s birthday, the brutal communist mass murderer, not the guy who along with his wife killed the Beatles, also for the people who went to Public Indoctrination Centers Schools there is a difference in spelling, but it’s really does not matter since you probably can’t read anyway.  Well back to the point, why do do we celebrate Earth Day on the same day that one of histories most brutal tyrants was born, does it have something to do with hippies fascination with communism, or am I reading a bit much into this?  And why do hippies wear clothing with mass murderers like Che Guevara and Mao Zedong on them but not Lenin or Pol Pot, Pot Pot was photogenic why not him?  I want to know… 

Any hoo it being hug a tree day or whatever today is reminds me of something.  Am I the only one that noticed that the remake of “The Day the Earth Stood Still” used a massive amount of technology to make when the message of the film was Luddite?  I’m pretty sure that if you have to use a whole ton of technology to show that technology is bad your message might be a little bit wrong.  Seriously if you want to go back to some primitive utopia (Read: Dystopia), have fun with a average life span of 30 years and no toothpaste.  Technology is a good thing, if you don’t believe me stop going to the hospital, don’t eat anything, since it takes a lot of technology to grow food, unless you want to go back to the Hunter/Gatherer days in human history, those were the good old days weren’t they, like I said have fun with a 30 year life span, no toothpaste, penicillin, quinine, disinfectant, water purification, soap, toilet paper (and no, you can use a pine cone, I won’t), or any of the other things that keeps life from being one big nasty suckfest.

I’m all for trying to protect the Earth but I’m also against millions of people dying of malaria every year so we need to make some compromises.  Fist things first you people need to start showering so we can actually get close enough to you bastards without either gagging from the stench or contracting some terrible disease only found in third world shit holes and hippie communes, to have a rational conversation. Second thing is for people to lay off the bullshit scare tactics and turning science into politics at the expense of actual science.  It’s all a scam, they make millions every year off of scarring the shit out of people into giving them money and you fall for it.  If you really think your Carbon Indulgences Credits are doing anything more than lining the pockets of rich assholes you need to wake up!

Also when talking about science never talk about concensus, there is only a correct theory or an incorrect theory, they used to have consensus on the fact the Sun revolved around the Earth, it wasn’t true but there was consensus. If you can’t come up with environmental policies that will not only help the planet but will not condemn millions of people into poverty, disease and starvation, then it’s not going to work.  Till then all I can really say is FUCK EARTH DAY!

One more thing, CO2 is not a pollutant, it’s a requirement for life on this planet!

For more fun here is a video of eco-nuts crying over trees.  enjoy…

Just in case you didn’t know if it wasn’t for technology they wouldn’t have any cloths and most of them would be either dead from desease or starvation.  Crying over trees, do they not realize they can plant a new one?

The Nose On Your Face has the a message to them from the trees.

Right-wing Extremism, Tea Parties and silly numbers.

Excepts from Jonah Goldberg’s latest column about the Tea Parties and the DHS report on Right-wing Extremism:

“I wrote a book on fascism which tried to show that what everybody knows isn’t necessarily true. The idea that soldiers will return from war and become right-wing militants? Well, that has its roots in Fascist Italy, where veterans returned as black-shirted shock troops of “Il Duce,” Benito Mussolini. The only problem was that they clamored for socialism — the socialism of the trenches! — and their leader had earned the title “Il Duce” as the leader of the Socialist Party.

The idea that American “hate groups” are right-wing and bristling with vets got new life with JFK’s assassination at the hands of a disgruntled vet named Lee Harvey Oswald. Everybody knew right away that Oswald was an agent of “hate” — and hate was code for right-wing and racist. Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren summed up the instantaneous conventional wisdom when he blamed the “climate of hatred” for Kennedy’s death. Everybody knew that the right was involved.

There was just one inconvenient truth: Oswald was a communist who, according to the Warren report, had “an extreme dislike of the rightwing” and had actually tried to murder a right-wing former Army general….

Sen. John Kerry belonged to an organization of vets that considered assassinating American politicians. (Kerry denied participating in those meetings.) Barack Obama was friends with, and a colleague of, a domestic terrorist whose organization plotted to murder soldiers and their wives at a social at Fort Dix. A young Hillary Clinton sympathized with the Black Panthers, a paramilitary gang of racist murderers and cop killers.

Bring that up and you’re a paranoid nutcase out of “Dr. Strangelove.”

But if you’re terrified of a bunch of citizens who throw tea in the water and demand lower taxes and less government spending, well, that’s just a sign of political seriousness.

Because everyone knows who the real threat to the country is.”

I would read the whole thing if I were you.

Anyway, people like to bring up Timothy McVeigh when talking about domestic terrorists, yeah he did kill more people than ALF, ELF and the Weather Underground, but that’s because he was better at building bombs, and he only used one the other three, all Left-wing organizations planted hundreds of bombs, fire bombed homes, and executed people.  I’m not going to justify what McVeigh did, it was wrong, but that was one nut-job, the left has tons of nut-jobs that pull this kind of thing, just because they aren’t as good at it as McVeigh doesn’t mean they aren’t a threat. What happens when they get competent?  Another thing about Timothy McVeigh is that he was one lone whack-job, unlike the left-wing, who form whole organizations dedicated to this kind of thing.  The Weatherman where planning on killing 12% of the US population, they didn’t do it but that’s only because they didn’t get the chance.  Timothy McVeigh was executed for his crimes while Bill Ayers got off and is now a college professor.  Think about it like this, Pol Pot might not have had the chance to kill as many people as Stalin but that doesn’t make him less evil.  Bill got away with it only because the FBI screwed up, and now he is just a collage professor and no one cares he and his group wanted to kill millions of American the second they got the chance.

But no the real threat is a bunch of unnamed Right-wing extremists – I think the term is “boogeyman” since they don’t even name any groups – and people who want lower taxes and more governmental accountability.  At least when left-wing extremists are talked about in these reports they name the organization they are talking about, not some cryptic “Right-wing”.

The worst thing about the DHS report is they refer to military veterans, yeah Timothy McVeigh was a vet, but when it all comes down to it, Veterans are the least likely people to commit any crime, the thing is people that have never been in the military are statistically more than twice as likely to commit a crime.  If you take the total population of the US the murder rate for people between 18 to 50 in 2006 was 0.015 percent while the murder rate for veterans in 2006 was 0.0055 percent.  Now remember to take into account that most murders are committed by younger men, and the people in the military are mostly younger men, but have one of the lowest crime rates, it means basically that the safest place you can be, other than locked in you room or next to a 9 year old girl (not you Muhammad, since that’s the least safest place for the girl), is next to a veteran or a current military member, even if they have direct combat experience and PTSD.

You want to worry about people worry about high school dropouts since they have the highest crime rate, while veterans have the lowest.  And if you want to worry about extremists worry about the left-wing, Communists and Socialists killed  untold millions more than any “Right-wing extremist” ever even dreamed of, I think the number is, for every right-wing murder you get about 1 million left wing murders.  But no, we are worried about some unnamed “Right-wing” rather than looking at the actions of the ELF who are known demestic terrorists and have a history of violence.  The DHS and Janet Napolitano are a joke and the whole report is a political tirad and nothing more.

Old WWII cartoon you need to watch.

It’s the truth that when someone promisses you everything they are only there to get everything you have.

“A government big enough to supply you with everything you need, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have….”

This quote is sometimes attributed to Thomas Jefferson, but as far many people can tell it was really from Gerald Ford, either way it’s the truth.

Ranting, politics, slavery and no llamas

islam catIt’s been awhile since I had a good rant so here goes.

With all the crap people talked about Bush for not being able to speak very well has anyone noticed Obama, the Great Orator’s inability to speak without a teleprompter? Really it’s not that Obama is a good speaker it’s just that he is really good at reading out loud.  Ever hear the guy without one?  He can’t even string enough words together to make a sentence, at least Bush could do that, yeah Bush might mangle a word here and there but he could at least complete a sentence without saying Um, Uhh, Huh, and Aaaa, every second!  It’s like watching a ventriloquists dummy up there and the Teleprompter has it’s hand up the guys ass!  Hell the only complete sentence I have ever heard from Obama that wasn’t from a teleprompter, he was making fun of the Special Olympics,  I bet Mr. Teleprompter won’t make that mistake again, letting his dummy run off without him.

Speaking of Obama I know I talked about the idiocy of his gifts of DVD’s that don’t work in England to Brown, but what the hell is up with his gift to the Queen?  Really an iPod might be a nice gift, assuming the Queen doesn’t already have one, but who the hell wants an iPod filled with Obama speeches and Show Tunes?  Really leaving aside how annoying show tunes are, how big does your ego have to be to think someone really wants several hours of you talking as a gift? It’s not the same as Ozzie or The Clash giving you a special box set of all their recording, but that is music it makes sense.  But giving someone a gift of just them talking for hours?  I’d punch my own mother if she gave me something like that as a gift.  Maybe the Queen likes Show Tunes and if she does fair enough, but  Obama Speeches?

I have a question for the media, at what point will you even try to fake like you are journalists long enough to even pretend to ask Obammers a tough question?  Or even a real one at that?  Seriously folks Obama’s sperm is not going to cure cancer so what don’t you guys stop drinking the shit long enough to do your jobs.  Even Pravda would have been ashamed watching you guys.  Last time I watched MSNBC I could have sworn that they had resurrected Walter Duranty from the grave to cover Obama.  I’m joking, Walter Duranty might have been on the Soviet payroll and spent all his time printing lies and propaganda for the USSR, but he was still better than Keith Olbermann, a man whose only contribution to Journalism is his ability to be everything that wrong with it at the same time, most journalists only have some of the problem traits, Olbermann has them all, and relishes in them.  It’s as if someone had pulled one of the brain dead freaks from the Daily Kos out of their mother’s basement, forced them to shower and put them on TV.

I refuse to feel guilty about living, I refuse to feel guilty about the things in my life that make it better than other peoples lives, at the same time I refuse to be envious over the lives of those who have it better than me.  Envy it can be said is one of the causes of all the worlds problems, one country looks at another and rather than emulating the things that make it better they invade it.  Politicians use envy to get elected and than steal money from one group to give it to another in order to maintain power.  There are entire political philosophies based on Envy and their track record can be summed up in two things, Oppression and Mass-murder.  There is a reason the 10th Commandment is about the evils of envy.  God knew it wasn’t a good thing, so bad in fact he made it a sin.

As P.J. O’Rourke said:

“The Bible might seem to be a strange place to be doing economic research, but I have been thinking, from a political economy point of view, about the Tenth Commandment. Now the first nine commandments concern theological principles–thou shall not steal and kill and so forth. Fair enough. Then there’s the Tenth Commandment: “Thou shall not covet they neighbor’s wife. Thou shall not covet thy neighbor’s house, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor’s.” I mean, here are God’s basic rules for how we should live, a very brief list of sacred obligations and solemn moral precepts, and right at the end of it is: “Don’t envy your buddy his cow.” What is that doing there? Why would God, with just 10 things to tell Moses, choose jealousy about the stuff the guy next door has? Well, think about how important to the well-being of a community that commandment actually is. What that commandment says is that if you want a donkey, if you want a pot roast, if you want a cleaning lady, don’t bitch about it, go get your own!

The Tenth Commandment sends a message to socialists, to collectivists, to people who believe that wealth is best obtained by redistribution, and that message is clear and concise: Go to hell! It’s as simple as that.”

Speaking of the wisdom from the Bible, I have an excerpt from, 1 Samuel Chapter 8:

10 And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.

11 And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.

12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.

13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.

14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.

15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.

16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.

17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.

18 And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.

God told the Israelites that they would not want a King because not only would he take their sons and daughters but he would take 10% of everything they owned or produced.  And how much does our government take from use now?  35-45%, maybe more if you look into the cost of all the hidden taxes the government has.  God thought it was bad for the government – in this case a king – to take 10% and warned against it but we let our government take so much more than that, and we wonder why people are throwing tea into our rivers.  God thought wealth redistribution was wrong and told us so over 3000 years ago, yet we don’t listen.  Even if you aren’t religious or of some other religion it’s something to think about. As Thomas Paine once said “Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.”

OK enough religion for the day.  Moving on…

I refuse to apologize for the actions of my ancestors nor feel guilty by them.  My ancestors have done nothing that others have not done, while the concept of original sin may sound nice in biblical theories, there is no such thing as original sin in the random chance of birth or genetics.  I refuse to feel guilt over something that I, not only did not do, but would not have done.  I am my own person, I am not a Crayola color.  For every sin thrown down at the feet of my forefathers yours as well, have been guilty.  Each man is born and each man will live, it is for him alone that he must carry his sins upon the world, as each man must do.  To condemn  a man and force him to carry the sins of another is the greatest travesty one could commit, for it destroys the highest gift that a man has been given, his individuality, it destroys the Self.  Original Sin is a joke, in the biblical accounts he gave the Tree of Knowledge and let man make his own choice, the choice was the  blissful ignorance of a common dog or free will, and he wanted you to pick free will, but you had to pay for it.  That was the bargain, you can have it but you must also be forced to carry the responsibility for it.  This responsibility rests within each man, you must carry your own burden, even the only  Son, God in the flesh did not die to lift responsibility from your shoulders, but in order that you may find redemption, it was a confession on the world stage, it was to say that you have been forgiven for your sins so that you could move on and sin no more, but you must still be responsible for your new sins, you must repent of your old sins and sin no longer.  But even if you take the idea of Original Sin, it is, and always will be inherent in all mankind not specific genetic lines.  I’m not trying to preach here, I am not a shepherd,  nor do I want the burden of such a man, I am just explaining the facts, or this aspect of one theology.  My point is it is your life and what matters is what you do with it, just as it is the other persons life and it is what they do with their own life that matters.  To carry the burdens and sins of another is slavery. I can carry the broken man home, but I cannot and will not carry his transgressions for him. wtf

OK, so maybe there was bit more religion in there, moving on.

Relationships are fun, I especially like the ones with an expiration date, it takes all the guess work out of when it will end, and they have a tendency to end on slightly better terms.  Starting a relationship with phrases like this “Well, we like each other, and have a good time but I’m moving out of the country in 5 months… so we can’t get too serious…” are the best pick up lines ever, OK it should never work but it does, I have no idea why, maybe people are just drawn to fatalism.  Granted you actually have to move out of the country in 5 months so don’t try it unless you are fully committed to the process.  I think I move to much, I should work on that…  Anyhoo, I guess there is something romantic about a relationship that can never last, stories about the summers love, stories where inevitably one of the lovers ends up dead.   I don’t even remember the last time I saw a Korean movie where one of the lovers didn’t end up dead, even in the comedies.  Japan is also quite good at this in their dramas, however their comedies don’t end with someone dead, unless it’s for comedic purposes.   Unlike Korean films that seem to always have some sort of fatalistic strain.  Maybe it’s the fact they have looked at the DMZ one too many times.  I don’t know.  Anyway, I think the beauty in a doomed romance, it is that people don’t have to think about what happens afterwards, it’s easier to have two lovers fall  for each other in the perfect concept of love and ones dies, rather than have to think about the next thirty years of their marriage and whatever happens there, boredom, children, PTA meetings and all.  Or maybe for good drama someone just has to die?   What do I know about love anyway, I know about hate, beer, large-caliber handguns and saltwater fish. Love, well, not my best subject.  To me all marriage seems to be is finding that one truly special person that you can spend the rest of your life with, it’s really just a nice way of saying she’s either pregnant or you don’t want to die alone and you have found the one person on the planet that wont eventually drive you to a murder suicide or kill you in your sleep.

There’s probably a reason I’m single I just don’t know what it is…

I was reading an article by Fred Siegel and I really liked this on paragraph, especially the end really says everything you need to know about progressive thought.

“The contributors to Civilization in the United States, some of whom were Harvard men soon to become self-imposed exiles in France, were driven by resentment. The so-called “lost generation,” explained Malcolm Cowley, was “extremely class conscious.” They went to Europe “to free themselves from organized stupidity, to win their deserved place in the hierarchy of intellect.” They felt that their status in America’s business culture was, given their obviously exceptional intelligence and extraordinary talent, grossly inadequate. Their simmering anger at what they saw as the mediocrity of democratic life, led them to pioneer the now commonplace stance of blaming society for their personal failings. Animated by a version of the aristocratic spirit, they found the leveling egalitarianism of the United States an insult to their sense of self-importance.”

More from P.J. O’Rourke:

“The second item in the liberal creed, after self-righteousness, is unaccountability. Liberals have invented whole college majors— psychology, sociology, women’s studies— to prove that nothing is anybody’s fault. No one is fond of taking responsibility for his actions, but consider how much you’d have to hate free will to come up with a political platform that advocates killing unborn babies but not convicted murderers. A callous pragmatist might favor abortion and capital punishment. A devout Christian would sanction neither. But it takes years of therapy to arrive at the liberal view.”

I once read an entire college textbook on Cultural Anthropology in one day, I still don’t know why, the entire thing was a political tract the  scientific textbook I thought it would be.  In order to “prove” a certain thing wasn’t abnormal they would find one culture, who amounted to no more than 100 people at most, and whose society lasted for no more than a century at the longest, in the whole history of humanity that practiced it.  See it’s not abnormal.  RIGHT…  I have often said, although maybe not in this blog, that Sociology is 90% bullshit, maybe it’s only 80% but that’s not the point, Cultural Anthropology is however 99.9999999% bullshit.  It’s not a science it’s a political philosophy pretending to be a science.  Look people, just because 5 freaks in a desert someplace 2000 years go worshiped hermaphrodites does not make it normal, understand?  It’s just five lunatics in a desert, that’s all.

Anyway I’m done so I will leave you a picture of a loving Palestinian mother and her son.

Proof the White House is lying about Obama bowing to the King of Saudi Arabi

So a the White house is saying that Obama did not bow to the Saudi King, um, OK then what the hell is this?

Obama bows to Saudi King
Last time I checked that was a bow and Obama and his people are lying.  Next time make sure there is not video or photographic evidence, it makes the lies more believable.  It’s a rather sloppy bow but Obama did in non the less.

I understand if he was in Japan, it would be customary for both parties to bow to one another, it’s like a Japanese handshake, although they do that too.  This was to the King of Saudi Arabia, a country that allows child marriage, discriminates against everyone that isn’t a Moslem male and gives money to every other terrorist organization on the planet, and considers Human Rights violations the national sport!  And Obama bows down before this bastard.  Great thanks a lot, it’s not like Obama is supposed to show America’s strength in the world, instead he spent his time apologizing to every tin pot dictatorship in the world and kowtows to the King of Saudi Arabia, and to top it all off he lies about it, he was the only person at the entire summit that did, and unlike a Japanese bow both parties did not participate, just Obama sucking up to a tyrant, and I don’t even see any   We elected a practical joke and it’s not funny anymore.  A word of advise to Obama:

YOU DO NOT BOW DOWN BEFORE THE DICTATOR OF A COUNTRY WHOSE ONLY CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WORLD ARE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS!

Tax Day Tea Party. It’s time to make the Government listen to us!

Tax Day is almost here, it used to be on March 15th but I guess the government got so annoyed with the “Beware the Ides of March” jokes, they changed it to April 15th, so now the only joke is on us.  Well since it’s a holiday of sorts I guess we need to celebrate it don’t we, and since as of the last time I checked shooting politicians for sport was illegal (and possibly morally wrong but that’s still up in the air) we need to find another way to celebrate government theft.

On December 16, 1773, The Sons of Liberty, some of them disguised as American Indians, boarded three ships and, over the course of three hours, dumped 342 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor.  What better way to celebrate than to have a Tea Party!  All over the United States on April 15th, 2009, people will be getting together to tell the government that we are sick of them taking our hard earned money as well as leaving massive debts our children will be forced to pay and flushing it down the toilet for every hair brained unconstitutional scheme they can think of.   There have already been several Tea Parties across the country but on the April 15th it’s going to be the national protest, I encourage everyone to get involved and protest the governments threats on our liberty, freedom and property.

If you want to know how to find the protest nearest to you go to Tax Day Tea Party, they have all the information on how to find one.   Also they have a lot of ideas for signs and poster you might want to take with you.  Also if there is not one in your area you may still have time to help set one up.

This isn’t about partisan politics this is about the people telling the government what they think about the irresponsible behavior of our elected officials.  This is about showing DC that we will not be silent any longer while they politicians carve up this country for their own greed and power while we are stuck with the bill.

We are the New Sons of Liberty, this is our country, a Constitutional Republic, not a collection of Fiefdoms in bondage to our Congressional lords.  It’s time to hold the Government accountable to the people and accountable to the Constitution they swore to uphold, it’s time to make our voices heard, it’s time to take our country back!

Now remember there will be people and organizations such as ACORN that are going to try infiltrate the events to disrupt them, they may try to incite violence, they will do everything they can to make this look like nothing but a racist fringe group, crazy militia, or angry violence people, or some other lies, and not the group of concerned citizens it really is.  They are going to be there in order to make this movement look bad, do not let them, if you see someone that is trying to start any sort of disruption make sure to let the police know so that they cannot mar the events.  There are also organizations that are planning to hold their own Tea  Parties, these fake Tea Parties are only to make the whole thing look bad, so make sure you don’t go to one of those.  If someone is holding up a racist sign get them to leave, if they want to protest against the Tea Parties they can do it someplace else. We cannot let radicals highjack these events so they can have propaganda against us!  If something looks out of place let people know, take pictures, do not let these people destroy the message we are trying to get out.  Do not confront someone if they look like they will react violently get the police to do it and make sure the people around you are safe, do not use violence against anyone unless if is out of necessary self defense because you do not want to  ruin this for everyone, there are enough people that are going to try to ruin this from the outside don’t ruin it from within.  I repeat do not get violent and watch out for people that will for the intention of ruining it for everyone.

Tort Lawyers wet dreams.

Does Congress even pretend to know what they are doing?

“An under-the-radar provision in a House climate bill would give plaintiffs who claim to be victims of global warming a way to sue the federal government or businesses, according to a report Friday in The Washington Times.

The Times reported that Democratic Reps. Henry Waxman of California and Edward Markey of Massachusetts added it into a bill they authored.

The provision, which was just released, reportedly would set grounds for plaintiffs who has “suffered” or expect to suffer “harm” attributable at least in part to government inaction. The provision defines “harm” as “any effect of air pollution (including climate change),” according to the Times. Plaintiffs could seek up to $75,000 in damages a year from the government, with $1.5 million being the maximum total pay out.

The Times reported that Waxman is trying to accelerate passage for the bill through his committee, as the Senate begins drafting its own version.”

Reps. Henry Waxman and Edward Markey must be trying to get figure out a way to screw the taxpayers over even more than Nancy Pelosi and Barney Frank already have.  They want to open the door to every eco-nut job and tort lawyer to sue the government and businesses for perceived harm “climate change” could have.  Apparently the fact that the earth has natural cycles of warming and cooling isn’t enough of a reason to stop these people from making a ton of money at the taxpayers, or shareholders expense.  Aren’t the eco-freaks making enough money off of the Carbon Credit scam, now they need to be able to make more at the taxpayers expense.  And considering the national debt is so high right now God doesn’t know where the number ends is it really a good idea to pass legislation guaranteeing   the government shells out even more of our money to line the pockets of social parasites?  Wasn’t stealing our grand children’s  money and mortgaging their future  enough for these ass hats that we need to take even more money out to line the pockets of every greedy leach whose only contribution to society is trying to destroy it?  The only way to make this bill worse is if you added provisions in it to help baby rapists and terrorists cash in on it too.   You are letting people sue and get money if they think they might at some point in their life be affected by something that you cannot prove is man made?  Hell how about this, let me sue the goverment for the harm they have done to this country, unlike “Global Climate Change”, this one I can prove!

And don’t give me the crap that “Climate Change” is man made.  In the 1970’s the eco-nuts were screaming about global cooling then it was global warming, now it’s “Climate Change” a term so broad it doesn’t matter what’s happening, as long as these people can make money.  Here is an interesting fact for you, since both the planet Mars and Earth were warming up at the same time, couldn’t we assume that it’s all due to hotter cycles of the Sun and not your neighbors SUV?   Then there are the people who start screaming about Carbon and calling it a pollutant,  It’s not, if you want to keep the amount of carbon in the atmosphere down STOP BREATHING!  It’s really that simple, but that doesn’t make money now does it?

Lastly, what is is about Massachusetts and California? Why does it look like most of the people they elect into the government came out of a mental hospital, or is it their way of keeping crack addicts off welfare and out of the state as much as possible?

How to rape the populace.

Here’s how it went down; a bank tries to refuse the TARP money from the government so the government gives them an offer they can’t refuse, either take the TARP money or if you do not we will make your life miserable with the biggest audit that you have ever seen, this would guaranty to waste a ton of the banks money, so the banks takes the money, then several months latter the bank tries to return the money with interest to the treasury, but wait the government refuses to accept the money back.  Now why would the government not try to get the money back especially with the national debt getting so high that it has about the same amount of digits in it as pi?   Granted several smaller banks have been successful in returning the money however this is this a much larger bank, that received a lot more money, why does the government not want the money back?  It’s because it’s about control, as long as the bank still has the TARP funds the government has control and can force them to do what they want, the smaller banks have less strategic value so attempting to control them at this time does not have as much benefit as the control of the larger banks, and the government is big game hunting.  Once you have control over the larger banks you can force the smaller ones fall in line latter.

The working title of “Atlas Shrugged” was “The Strike”, it should have been called “How To Kill The Golden Goose”.  You want to know why companies suck up to the government, it’s because they want money, like everyone does, and the more control the government has, the more money is to be made from their favors, but once the company is controlled by the government it’s not going to let go, it has to much power at stake to do so.  The Strike was the strike of the honest men against the dishonest men, the men that chose to walk away rather than live under a bureaucratic slavery.  But these companies and men don’t strike, they just want to give back the money and regain their independence, their freedom.  But it’s not going to happen now is it?

Independence and Freedom is the bane of all governments, while ours was supposed to be  limited to those duties explicitly enumerated in the Constitution and created in order to allow the largest amount of personal and economic freedoms, it is increasingly obvious to anyone who has read the thing that the Government no longer thinks that the Constitution has any bearing over national law.  Control the financial institutions, the schools and the industrial base and you control the country, you can control the people, you control their money, their minds and their lively-hoods, they are your slaves.  The politicians need problems, that’s how they gain and keep control, they don’t care about the consequences of their action because they know they can always steal more of your money to “fix” the problems they created.  Nor do they car about the future, in 50 years most people in the government right now will be dead, so it does not matter to them that in 50 years people will still be paying for their mistakes.   The ones that are alive won’t have to worry about Social Security going bankrupt because they already voted themselves better pensions anyway, they will be taken care of, you won’t be!

Here’s one of the tricks; people in Community A want something let’s call it Project 3, but rather than pulling their resources  together they go to Senator Jones, now senator Jones is up for reelection so he naturally  promises that he will raise taxes on Community B to pay for it, once elected Senator Jones gets a bill passed giving Community A the funds for Project 5, now Community B is angry that their taxes have been raised and used for Project 5, something that not only do they not want but is something that does not help them in any way, so they figure they might as well get in on the game, so they go to Senator Smith who raises taxes on Community C to fund Project 6.  Now Community C not only has to pay into the General Fund for the government but they as well as Community B have to pay more than Community A so they are out for blood, or at least to get something they want, so the cycle continues.

Now another part of the game is the General Fund.  The General Fund is the total taxes the government collects and each Community wants a part of it, it doesn’t matter that what they want might not be constitutional they want it and the politicians are happy to give it to them because they want power and to be reelected, so they each try to take as much money out of the Fund as they can,  it doesn’t matter that each of these pet projects does nothing for 99% of the of the country other than take their money, because it keeps Community A voting for Senator Jones.  The honest man, Senator Williams  knows that none of this is constitutional and does not take out of the fund so his Community E gets nothing, yet still has to pay for the other Communities, so they go out and find Candidate Vargas who promises them everything they want and elect him to the Senate, this way now Senator Vargas can try to steel as much money as he can from the General Fund for Community E.  The honest man loses because when the game is rigged it’s the honest and law abiding that ends up with nothing but the bill, and a lot of questions.  you divide and conquer, play people off of one another, class warfare.

Around 50% of the population pays very little too no income taxes, while the top 10% pays 70% of all income taxes, and say they all vote, well is the bottom 50% don’t care about a tax increase on the top 10% because they don’t pay taxes but will get the added benefits form these tax increases while the top 10% don’t want the tax increases because it will not only not benefit them but hurt them.  Who wins?  The bottom 50% because they have more votes, plus even if they aren’t going to benefit directly from the tax increase it won’t hurt them since they don’t pay taxes, or when they do it’s minimal, it will only hurt the top 10%.  Now this is class warfare, the bottom 50% don’t care about the top 10% because they are the “Evil Rich”, it doesn’t matter that the top 10% pour millions of dollars every year into charity from their own pockets, the rich are evil and they “owe” it to the bottom 50%.  Since the bottom 50% is envious of the top 10% the Politicians use this in oder to maintain and increase their power.  Now the top 10% can get back in their own ways, they buy off politicians to give them benefits, subsidies or tax credits for their businesses, it makes sense if you pay 70% of all taxes you want to get something out of it don’ t you?  Once again the honest man loses.

What people refuse to do is go get their own money why pay for something out of your own pocket when you can get the government pay for it out of someone else’s, at the barrel of a gun, it’s it’s theft only you get the government to mug the guy rather than do it yourself, hell we have gotten so lazy and entitled we expect someone else to commit our crimes for us.  Another thing people fail to realize is that the economy, is not static, it isn’t only one sum and it never changes.  As P. J. O’Rourke said:

“Wealth is not a pizza where if I have too many slices, you have to eat the Domino’s box. Wealth is not zero-sum.”

or:

“Your money does not cause my poverty. Refusal to believe this is at the bottom of most bad economic thinking.”

The thing is, in capitalism,  wealth is created, not looted or stolen such as in monarchism or political/economic systems such as communism, or socialism.  The idea is that I have something someone else wants so they come to me and give me a sum of money that I am willing to take to part with my goods or labor, by this process I can then go out and use this sum to purchase  the things I want.  What collectivism tells you is that they will give these things to you, because they are your right, and you won’t have to work for it, so what happens is a man with a gun (the government) finds the man with the skills or products and at the point of the gun takes it from him and than gives it to you.  But what of the man whose property has been taken?  Well it doesn’t matter since, he is the “evil rich”, or uncaring and selfish, it’s his own fault for being such and therefor does not deserve pity, only your contempt.  It’s the rapist, laughing at the raped, and telling her it was her own fault, while the government holds the victim down for him.  If a man does not have the right to take a woman by force why does a man have the right to take my property or life by force?  The truth is they do not, so they lie, whenever the words “For The Greater Good” can be heard you know evil is behind it.  Class Warfare has never done anything other than murder or enslave people and countries, but it’s how the politician gets your votes, and his control.  If you want to hate the people who have more than you do, go right ahead, but don’t get angry when they start to hate you too.  And asking a man you hate for forced handouts does not make you a better person, it makes you nothing more than a greedy self absorbed leach.

But you want to call me selfish?  I am called this because when forced to do so, I do not willingly give up the products of my labor for the benefit of others.  Am I uncaring?  Yes and no.  I do care about the plight of those less fortunate however my charity to others cannot be forced.  There is no compulsion in charity, it loses it’s meaning when received under the barrel of a gun.  But the government not only wants to force me to give, and you do too, but you want me to like it.  It’s the rapist, laughing at the raped, and telling her it was her own fault, while the government holds the victim down for him, and everyone gets angry at the poor girl for not having a good time.

Government, they want control, so they use you, they lie, and they steal, all in the name of Nobel platitudes, high ideals, “hope and change”, but it’s always the same, they use your jealousy and greed to gain control, all they need is to trow you a couple scraps from the asters table and you wag your tails like dogs,  this isn’t even slavery, the slave hated his master you love yours.  How does it feel to be worth less than a slave?  Not only do they enslave you but they want to to like it.  This my friend is the definition of evil.
