America's Worst Week Ever

There comes a point where you are sick and tired of even listening to any of the media because even people who agree with you- - you in time realize that merely commiserating about the state of the nation now- - won’t change by mere talk among ourselves.  I just went outside and there was some new guy on the bench who is a little nutty and wants to start an argument over nothing.  But the thing is a mass insanity has gripped our nation.   I have to take exception to things even liberals have said because if they were true, we would not have a problem now.  They say the republicans are divided and the democrats are united.  The republicans aren’t divided because I doubt there are twenty who would vote to raise the debt ceiling.  I also doubt that seventy percent of Americans blame the republicans because if they did- - John Boehner would not be acting as supremely confident as he is right now.   Clearly a majority of Americans and a vast majority of the Media is basically in accord with what the Republicans are doing in causing chaos and our economic downfall.    I think I’ll paste in a paragraph from yesterday when I get around to it right here.   Randy has said that perhaps Abraham Lincoln was wrong in not just letting the South secede because that way we’d be rid of them once and for all- - and we would have both houses of congress back.  If even so much as Texas seceded- - the balance would turn to our favor.  It isn’t happening.  Besides - - that wouldn’t help because you have blue states that have turned red such as Wisconsin and Ohio- - and Michelle Bachman from Minnisota is still making statement.  She says even if the American economy collapses - - the whole thing is in Jesus’ hands and it’ll be all right.  Jesus is coming back.  Marinotha, and all that.  Now the twenty republicans who claim they would bolt their party and vote with the democrats- - they are backing down.   It seems the Koch brothers, Charles and David - - have over eighty Billion dollars in wealth, but they are not a publically listed stock, and so they felt as though whatever happened to the rest of Wall Street would not happen to them.   It seems that the VA payments will stop soon.  And the government is holding up death benefits for our troops who have died in combat.  Four died because a suicide bomber coming out a bomb factory in Afghanistan - - blew himself up.  So it seems that Al Qaeda and the Tea Party are the most fearless organizations on the planet.  They say to keep silent when Evil is on the march- - is really to help the cause of Evil.  You’ve heard it said that “For evil to prosper- - all that is necessary is for good men to do nothing”.  I am completely disgusted with government and the media.   We are in the throes of a mass insanity the likes of which we’ve never known before.

The government sure is in chaos now, and the media is doing a poor job of conveying the real facts to the American people, so I hold them partially responsible.  I guess since they are driven by ratings they must be rooting for economic chaos or something.  But after a while this coming economic chaos will affect everybody, perhaps even them.  I don't see why busines people aren't leaning on John Boehner to knock it off and just allow a House vote on the debt ceiling.  He wouldn't be able to get away with what he is doing if the American people- - even if by their inaction- - weren't going along with it.

 

You know- - one thing the tea party right does or fakers in general is that they invent a whole other history.  My family is guilty of doing this in spades.  You hear lies from John Boehner about the “Obama sequester” or “We gave Obama his tax hike last December”.  No, he gave you a tax CUT for people between $250,000 and $400,000 per year.  Often you see in movies these obviously Jewish people talking about how their favorite dish is liver and onions at their local delicatesson - - when according to the Jewish book of Why- - liver in any form is strictly forbidden.  And if I have to hear from Anne Romney the telling one more time of how when they were first married- - the ironing board doubled as a dinner table- - I’m going to gag, as if Anne Romney even ironed the family’s clothes and didn’t have servants to do it.  And then you have this Jack Deveroux case on Days of our Lives.   Jack’s father was a spoiled rich kid- - of Senator Harper Deveroux- - and like Bill Clinton’s raping of Juanita Broadwick- - rich people have a certain sense of entitlement.  Jack was a flake who constantly played mind games- - and took off with no notice at all to the family.  And one time he pretended to be a homosexual so he could room with a pretty woman.  (Swamp girl)   But Jack Jr lived his whole life away from Salem in boarding school.  To do that you’d have to be pretty independent and responsible.  And yet now he can’t leave his mother’s sight a half an hour without getting into major trouble- - and has these emotional fits.  Common sense tells you he never could have survived on his own like that.   Of course Marco Rubio was guilty of manufactured history when he said that his parents came to this country as refugees from Castro’s Cubs.  Every birther is a liar by implication if they maintain that- - if your mother was a citizen of the United States, it doesn’t confer citizenship to the child.  How often did we hear this lie over and over?  John Boehner says “It’s part of the normal give and take to hold the debt ceiling of the United States hostage” when until summer of 2011 it had never been done in the history of our nation.  Chuck Smith rails against pastors who “would make merchandise of the gospel” when Chuck Smith literally INVENTED the merchandizing of Christianity with all of this Marinotha book and records and whatever selling of stuff right there on church grounds.   John Boehner claims that “I’m only concerned about mounting deficets” knowing full well they have been cut almost in half in the past two years.   And they say things like Hitler invented the idea of national Health Care- - when Bismarck had it decades earlier.  And now because they don’t teach either civics or political science in the schools- - so it’s not surprising why the tea party frenzy is so hard to combat.

The Moe Kelly and Tulalla or whoever he is - - show this morning was a cast of stupid is as stupid does.  As you know I have certain bugaboos about people and very high on the list is moral inconsistency.  During one fifteen minute segment of the show- - Moe and Tulalla were getting on the New York prosecutor’s case for prosecuting – apparently a bunch of motorcycle “under cover” cops for the harassment and beating of that driver with his family in the SUV in New York.  They claimed that you can’t “disrupt an undercover investigation”.   So these cops so called have been on their own “investigating” this motorcycle gang- - and in order to be “credible” they have to participate in every beating, rape, murder and robbery that this gang of thugs commits.  “Oh this investigation has been going on for more than a year and now it’s all ruined because their cover was blown”.   My response is that if they have been investigating for a year and still come up with nothing- - it’s time to call it quits.  Who is overseeing these so called “under cover cops”?  I mean - - why couldn’t Jimmy Swaggart or Charles Colsen have just said ‘Oh I wasn’t doing anything anything wrong- - I was just involved in an under-cover investigation - - and now that’s all ruined.   Then they segway into the story about the precotious nine year old boy who hopped a flight from Miniapolis to Las Vegas.  And Moe and Tulalla both become child rearing experts all of a sudden.  It’s funny how the most outspoken “experts” on Child Rearing are people who have never had kids.  I give you as examples people like Tom Leykis, and Gene Scott, Rush Limbaugh, and Moe Kelly - - - or even Dr Laura who had one kid who turned out so messed up we won’t talk about him.  Moe and Tualla go on and on about how even on play dates as kids they had to check in every hour on the hour- - even if they are in the middle of a football game on the street on the next block- - and Lord knows how Moe had any dating life.  Some of these Church Pastors will brag that “I’m such a stud pulsing with sexual energy- - I don’t even allow myself to be alone with a woman for counseling”.  To which I might stand up and say “OK –then let me counsel her - - because I’m not worried about that problem”, to which these same people would insist how- - people like me can’t be trusted- - - Just Because.  You know if I ever had parents like Moe- - I myself - - or - - anybody - - people in general - -  when put under enough pressure could think of doing the unthinkable- - like trying to hop a commercial flight somewhere.  Maybe John Boehner should get a bill passed that states that when the President goes on any diplomatic trip abroad he has to personally check in with John Boehner every hour- - and if he fails to- impeachment charges will be brought that day.

Yesterday was John Lennon's birthday and we had cold and rain around here.  There was a guy in congress yesterday who gave a speech citing a survay that says that the American people hate congress more than they do hemeroids, cockroaches, or dog poop.  Congress is given a five percent approval rating by one poll and seven percent in another.  Like I said, if this were true- - we wouldn't be looking at a failure to raise the debt ceiling on the national debt seven days from today.   This rule nine was to force John Boehner to hold a vote on the Senate continuing funding resolution.  But apparently the guy was gavveled down.  You know- - President Obama would be smart just to ignore what congress said and continue to issue bonds anyhow and risk impeachment by the house.  It should take them all of fifteen minutes to have a vote on that one.  Conviction in the senate is another matter; that will never happen- - which once again would make the whole impeachment exercise pointless.  But the President would be risking nothing because the House doesn't do anything, anyhow.  At least this way they would be doing Something.   In my personal affairs - - my phone went dead and they no longer make a battery for this particular GE model number. The SL Cardinals defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 6 to 1 and therefore the Dodgers will be going to St Louis to play there Friday night of the League Championship Series.  I don't think the Dodgers have ever played the Pirates in a major league play-off, and they won't this year, either.
