Monday, January 2, 2012 Of Hucksters and Hayseeds: GOP Trolls for Rubes in Iowa
One of the big lies that is peddled to Americans by the corporate media and the rotten to the core political system that it serves is that the state of Iowa is an important indicator of all things American. Nowhere is this whopper of a fib more apparent than the ongoing Republican carnival of perversion that is the Iowa caucuses. The demographics of the Hawkeye state are so unrepresentative of those of the country as a whole so as render the entire mockery of a charade laughable. Yet the shills and carnival barkers of the mainstream media once again perpetuate the lie.
Thursday, December 29, 2011 No Christmas Miracles: Tim Tebow Exposed (4 comments)
The nauseating hype over the right-wing religious machine's Kim Kardashian, the full blown manufactured celebrity with crossover appeal that is Tim Tebow took a big hit on Christmas Eve. The greatest quarterback in NFL history who can't throw the ball on a consistent basis was embarrassed in Buffalo 40-14, a result that caused much weeping and gnashing of teeth among the believers and right-wing Republican swine. To add insult to injury HBO's Bill Maher dared to blaspheme Orange Jesus in a post-game tweet setting off a firestorm of biblical proportions as the perpetually persecuted haters, the stone bigots of the Religious Right bleated for blood.
Saturday, November 5, 2011 Red State: The Enemy Within (3 comments)
Not that it is going to receive any attention in the corrupt corporate media but Kevin Smith's new movie "Red State" is a must see. An explosive tale that deals with the serious haters of the far-right Christians who have zero in common with Jesus Christ and use their religion as a cover for their serious plans for American society. The film also presents a criticism of law enforcement that has been militarized and no-longer restrained by the gutted Constitution.
Wednesday, October 26, 2011 Pat Buchanan's White Supremacist Republican Vision
I have to admit that I actually have a sort of twisted admiration for Patrick J. Buchanan. He is an old school type who is unabashedly honest in his dislike for non-whites and his latest book from early indications is the most racist tome since Mein Kampf. Of course he recently published a pro-Hitler revisionist view of WW II so it is consistent for this old dinosaur as he brays while being sucked into the tar pit of history.
Sunday, October 9, 2011 Uncle Tom's Pizza Cabin (1 comments)
In the coordinated pushback against the growing movement against corporate greed and capitalism gone cancerous it is up to Herman Cain to play the Spiro Agnew roll right out of the old Nixon playbook. Calling out the people in the streets as hippies, losers and freaks is vintage Nixon. Ironic that one who would have been silenced under the Southern Strategy would be the lead attack dog.
Saturday, October 8, 2011 Tea Party Swine Squeal Over Occupy Wall Street Protests (7 comments)
The Occupy Wall Street Movement just bagged two huge endorsements Friday in being denounced by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a friend of the job destroying banksters and the insipid GOP Majority Leader Eric Cantor. The whole phony tea party myth is on the cusp of being blown up and they are terrified.
Friday, September 16, 2011 The Orgy Of 9/11 Exploitation (2 comments)
In a land bereft of common decency it was to be expected that the tenth anniversary gala that commemorated the American Reichstag Fire of 9/11 would be hijacked and perverted. The official lies of that day when the reset button was hit on 200+ years and America went fascist were firmly hammered into place. A big assist goes to one of the few institutions more revered than the military, the NFL.
Saturday, September 10, 2011 Right Wing Bullies Cry Foul Over Tea Party Zombies Must Die (5 comments)
The full blown hypocrisy of the fascist right-wing fifth column is once again on display. There is much weeping and gnashing of pointy teeth over the new online shooter style video game "Tea Party Zombies Must Die". The game is a fun filled journey through a land of teabagger zombies after a Koch Industries bred environmental apocalypse where players can take out their pent up frustrations on various right-wing propagandists. Try it, it's a blast!
Wednesday, August 24, 2011 Rick Perry: The Neocons Have A New Sheriff (1 comments)
The Republican fascists, specifically the neoconsevatives have ridden the phony tea party insurgency horse to the glue factory. With their silly little faux movement becoming more unpopular by the minute it was time to go back to the well one more time. In Texas Governor Rick Perry the ass kicking cowboy archetype that has served so well is back with a vengeance and is being backed by the same forces that gave the planet one George W. Bush.
Thursday, August 18, 2011 The Great Tebow Crusade: A Sports Metaphor for a Delusional Nation
With America being slowly swallowed as if by a mutant alien kudzu strain of bizarro Christianity which has permeated our politics, foreign policy and now our entertainment it is only fitting to examine the inexplicable frenzy over Denver Broncos third string QB Tim Tebow. Tebow has been touted by many as the glorious appearing of a new type of celebrity Christ despite his many shortcomings that would have relegated lesser figures without a massive PR machine to irrelevance. A segue into the sports world for me as I have always had a serious jones for professional football.
Sunday, August 14, 2011 Michele Bachmann: About that Iowa Straw Poll... (1 comments)
With the conservative culture of perpetual victimhood having spent the week raging at the hideous liberal conspiracy behind the Michele Bachmann Newsweek cover photo they should be absolutely delighted with her act of fellatio on a corndog in Iowa.
Monday, August 8, 2011 Lynch Mob Rule
The downgrading of the U.S. credit rating only masks the ridiculousness of the entire "debate" over the debt. How can any serious "debate" ever take place when the entire idea that we are in this predicament due to subsidizing the plutocratic tax chiselers, corporate job exporters and death freaks borrowing like drunken sailors to finance eternal war is left out? Thanks teabaggers!
Sunday, July 31, 2011 Norwegian Tea: Will Anti-Muslim Crusade Bring Blood to America For 2012? (1 comments)
The act of right-wing Christian terrorism in Norway last week had many American influences and the anti-Muslim demagoguery that drove Anders Breivik has deeply embedded itself within the fascist Republican Tea Party as well as the Christian Right. An extremely volatile mix ensuring that in 2012 there will be a possibility of blood in the streets.
Monday, July 11, 2011 What Progressives Fail to Understand: This Is War (2 comments)
With America under total right-wing control despite the farce of the dog and pony show elections that only serve as spectacles to determine which corrupt looter capitalist party controls the spoils system it is time to think differently. What progressives and what passes for the left fail to understand is that this has always been a war and they are on the brink of losing everything. Isn't it time to start fighting back?
Wednesday, July 6, 2011 The Real Reason To Damn Obama (5 comments)
In his great piece "Obama's Original Sin" former New York Times columnist Frank Rich calls a spade a spade in pointing out how badly that Barack Obama has failed all but the monied Wall Street interests who really run this country. The administration has been one continual series of capitulations, broken promises, failures and surrenders with one exception - the ongoing fealty to those that destroyed the U.S. economy and will never, ever be held accountable by Obama and his miserably botched administration. It is inconceivable that the fascist Republican party, so discredited could soon be back in total control of the U.S. government and we have Obama to thank.
Monday, July 4, 2011 Day Of The Flag Suckers (5 comments)
There is something about July Fourth that brings out the worst in the American character as exemplified by the fascist Republican party and their drooling teabagger brownshirts. Nobody waves the bloody flag better than the Republicans despite the standard hypocrisy that the majority of them never had the guts to serve their country themselves.
Thursday, June 30, 2011 Tea Party Khmer Rouge Will Break Marco Rubio's Rice Bowl
In the newest flavor of the day of bullshit the fascist Republican party is now drooling over the prospect of Jeb Bush protege Marco Rubio as a potential Vice Presidential candidate in 2012. A bizarre detour into diversity for a party whose bread and butter is denying it to others and this certainly isn't going to sell with their teabagger brownshirt base. The rabble is already suspicious of Rubio for his lack of ideological fervor since he rode the runaway freight train of raw racism to a Senate seat last year.
Wednesday, June 29, 2011 Michele Bachmann and John Wayne Gacy's America
In what has to classify as one of the great Freudian slips of modern times the new queen of the teabaggers, the anti-gay fanatic Michele Marie Bachmann let slip her American vision of one John Wayne. Problem is that it wasn't the misogynist fake cowboy the Duke but the murderous John Wayne Gacy, a true folk hero for the ultra-bigoted, racist Republican fascist party.
Saturday, June 25, 2011 Hey Progressives: It's Time to Get Mad Dog Mean (11 comments)
The system has failed and the day of reckoning is coming, best saddle up and get prepared lest you be destroyed by it, read some history on what happens when the thugs are unleashed. The time has come to cast aside any notions of being able to rationalize with these people because it isn't going to happen.
Monday, May 30, 2011 Teabagger Queen Palin Spits on Nation's War Dead (2 comments)
If it's Memorial Day this is the day for all of the gutless right-wingers and teabagger Republicans to desecrate the flag by wrapping themselves in it while they pontificate about their fascist ideology and spit on the graves of those who died to at least in theory protect our freedoms. America's favorite parasite, Sarah Palin has never been accused of having dignity nor shame but this latest cynical re-launch represents a new low for the white trash diva from Wasilla.
Sunday, May 8, 2011 Print the Legend: The Official Death of Osama bin Laden (8 comments)
With the now official admission that the bogeyman Osama bin Laden is dead the most enjoyable thing of all is to behold the astonished Republican fascist party react to being stripped of their trump card. While questions remain as to the credibility of the story itself, to quote the great I.F. Stone "All governments lie" the one most important thing is that no matter when it happened he is now gone as a symbol to justify the wars at home and abroad.
Tuesday, May 3, 2011 Flag Suckers Rejoice as Obama Waves bin Laden's Bloody Scalp (1 comments)
As fear-stricken Americans take to the streets, shouting USA! USA! USA! the only a week ago Barack Obama, reviled by the bigots and haters of the GOP hijacked Tea Party as well as his own base has with the vanquishing of the devil bin Laden ensured not only his second term in office but also the death of the Republican party as we know it.
Tuesday, May 3, 2011 After Bin Laden: Onward to Weimar or Back to America
The evil one is now dead, the announcement triggered celebrations and chants of USA! USA! USA! What a bloodthirsty nation we have become, perhaps this is only a catharsis and we can move onward, end the wars, bring the troops home and dismantle the police state... the public rallies are really ugly though, especially in times of such economic distress and could just as easily ignite a taste for more revenge.
Monday, April 25, 2011 The Big Chunks Float to the Top: The Time 100 (2 comments)
Time Magazine, one of America's preeminent propaganda organs belches up it's annual list of the 100 top pets of the ruling oligarchy. On the vomit inducing spectrum this year's issue rates as a 9.0 but only because Ben Bernanke, Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck and the Donald aren't included.
Saturday, April 16, 2011 Eugenics American Style: Welcome to Trump's (1 comments)
The ascension of Donald Trump as a presidential candidate on a platform that showers reverence on the most idiotic of all Americans is not only obscene but is further evidence that the USA has once and forever devolved into an Idiocracy.
Friday, April 8, 2011 One Link Shorter: Joe Bageant 1946-2011 (3 comments)
It was with immense sadness that I discovered that Joe Bageant had succumbed to cancer and departed this mortal coil the weekend prior to last. I was a huge fan of Joe's, his writings, especially in recent years as the obvious decline and fall of America into fascist third world status accelerated were poetic, mournful, darkly funny and dead on. He will be missed, as Hunter S. Thompson once wrote, "the tribe is smaller by one, the circle is one link shorter and the enemy jacks up the odds by just a little bit more".
Thursday, March 31, 2011 Money Doesn't Talk, It Swears (3 comments)
I always got a sardonic little kick out of the silly liberals who only made excuses for Obama (and still do) in that he was the chess master, or Michael Jordan just studying the opposing team's defense and ready to explode at any moment into a whirling dervish of athletic daredeviltry as he broke down the formidable defense of the Bad Boys for the championship hardware. The truth, and it is as dark as the proverbial black steer's tookus on a moonless prairie night is that Obama is the chessmaster, it's checkmate for the working class and he is just like Michael Jordan, a greedy, amoral, selfish multimillionaire prick who once commented "Republicans buy sneakers too" rather than doing the right thing in using his global celebrity to promote progressive social change.
Saturday, March 26, 2011 Dancing With The Corpses (3 comments)
While blissfully ignorant Americans continue to be assimilated by the fascist warfare state, Obama's attack on Libya proves that when it comes to murder for mammon that nobody does it quite like the good ole US of A. But then there is Dancing With the Stars, back again like a bad case of recurrent genital herpes to distract the inhabitants of the world's largest lemming colony.
Monday, March 21, 2011 Let Them Eat War: Mr. Obama Joins the Club (1 comments)
The moment the first explosions rocked Libya I knew that Barack Obama had just locked down another four years in the White House. This was his initiation, his right of passage, just like laying in a mock coffin and sucking off upperclassmen in the Skull and Bones tomb. By definition every U.S. President is a war criminal and our very own proud owner of the Nobel Peace Prize finally has that most precious of things, a war that he can claim as his own.
Saturday, March 19, 2011 Alex Jones: Conspiracy Crank or Captain America? (19 comments)
In the alternative media there are few figures more contradictory or controversial than radio host/filmmaker Alex Jones. Jones' attacks on what he defines as the New World Order and the "global Stasi Borg state" have made him into a cult figure to many but there are many interesting contradictions in his message despite it's heart on the sleeve style of patriotism.
Tuesday, March 8, 2011 Charlie Sheen Killed Natalee Holloway (1 comments)
But of course he didn't although it is about the ONLY thing that the actor hasn't been accused of YET anyway by a high-octane corporate media machine intent at pimping celebrity while America crumbles.
Thursday, March 3, 2011 A Defense of the Reverend Fred Phelps (sort of)" (9 comments)
While Phelps and his clan may not the the best spokespeople for the antiwar movement at least they are out there raising some hell and not sitting in front of their televisions and computer monitors sucking their thumbs while the war machine eats America.
Sunday, February 13, 2011 Andrew Rice and Wired's Sleazy Yellow Journalism
When a powerful media corporation chooses to launch a vicious smear attack against a powerless writer who challenges power it is an attack on us all. Wired Magazine continues their recent pattern of yellow journalism that resulted in the heroic leaker Pvt. Bradley Manning being held in inhumane conditions. This pattern continues with Andrew Rice's vicious hit piece against a woman seeking justice for her murdered father.
Thursday, February 10, 2011 Big Sister Says Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid
My first thought was that I was watching some bizarre sort of cabaret show with Tom Ridge in drag, only with some sort of weird looking grey skunk pelt wig. If there was every any doubt about the big lie of the two party system then Big Sis is doing her best to expose it with the Obama DHS head's escalation of the police state.
Monday, February 7, 2011 Reagan Idolatry, the Super Bowl and American Fascism
There are two essential institutions to modern American looter capitalism and the societal damage that it was wroght over the last three decades. One being the showcase of American Empire and the garish worship of our great national glory that is the Super Bowl. The other being the big lie of the greatness of our national icon Ronald Reagan. It is not any coincidence the the great one's 100th birthday fell on the day of the greatest game of them all.
Tuesday, February 1, 2011 Do Anarchists Dream of Electronically Lobotomized Sheep?
The uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia are reflective of a global awakening of the debilitating final states of U.S. looter capitalism. Commodities speculators are pushing food prices into the stratosphere and finally there is massive resistance. Not here in America of course where the pigs continue to feed at the government filled golden trough while the planet starves. When is our own day of reckoning coming?
Monday, January 10, 2011 Kristol and Palin Reap the Whirlwind in Arizona (7 comments)
Saturday's tragic shooting in Arizona is the logical result from the fires of hatred that have been stoked by America's neocon propagandists and their avenging queen of apple pie authoritarianism out to "take the country back". The right-wingers have been trolling for a shooter for a good while now and they finally got one - how many more are out there?
Wednesday, December 15, 2010 The Last Circle: Welcome to the Spookloop
The only things that they understood were money and power, the only thing that they feared was the truth. Cheri Seymour exposes a criminal cartel of black-ops specialists, drug traffickers, arms dealers and corrupt bureaucrats that has deeply and permanently embedded itself within the U.S. Power structure. The Last Circle is a must read for those who dare to question why.
Wednesday, November 17, 2010 John Tyner: American Hero (1 comments)
In striking a blow against the empire of fear and repression that is now "The New Normal" in the former land of the free and home of the brave an average citizen named John Tyner may have finally broken through. In calling out the TSA and their groping goons in a way that resonates with the public Tyner could be more dangeous to the new order than 1,000 Joe Stacks.
Sunday, November 14, 2010 Jesse Ventura on Fusion Centers, FEMA Camps and the Police State (5 comments)
Former Governor Jesse Ventura goes where few others would dare with the latest installment of his TruTv series "Conspiracy Theory With Jesse Ventura". Into the heart of the much repeated Orewellian term "The New Normal" that is the fascist police state of the New American Century. This episode is a must see for any who are truly concerned about their disappering civil liberties in this putrid empire of greed and blood.
Saturday, August 21, 2010 The Nine Dollar and Eleven Cent Store (1 comments)
With the ongoing farce over the proposed Ground Zero recreation center with a mosque in it and the dangerous fake outrage and fear being manufactured by the Becked up Neocons, right-wing ghouls and the Republican Tea Party brownshirts it is nice to find some humor in it all. I was listening to the Mike Malloy Show the other day and heard this absolutely drop-dead funny idea of converting the spot into a nine dollar and eleven cent store to commemorate what is truly dear to America. Here is the transcript from Grand Vizier Mark of Silicon Valley. Check this out!
Saturday, July 24, 2010 Why The Tea Party Loves Big Brother (14 comments)
The falsely advertised anti-big government Republican Tea Party never utters a peep about the growth of the out of control police state that has been erected largely under the radar since 9/11. For a pack of GOP talking point spewing automatons seemingly concerned about massive growth of government, the ongoing pissing away of tax dollars on bloated bureaucracy, job creation and the huge deficits are totally down with the massive expansion of the Homeland Security Industrial Complex. This is just another one of the examples of the mass fakery of the Republican co-opting of the libertarian Tea Party movement. The biggest secret of all that the fascist leadership of the GOP doesn't want to slip is that the original libertarian Tea Party were out in the streets protesting exactly that which the useful idiots of the Dick Armey of Darkness now fully embrace.
Tuesday, July 20, 2010 Tea Party Racist? You Betcha! (12 comments)
It took the NAACP to finally do that which was necessary by calling a spade a spade and the aftershocks of the resolution to recognize and call out racist elements within the Republican Tea Party was long overdue. This growing cancer on the American body politic is as dangerous as it is easily manipulated and it needs to be treated in the most aggressive manner possible lest it metastasizes. While I am certainly not falling into the trap of calling the entire movement racist which is the little linguistic hoop that the propagandists, shills and GOP operatives in the corporate media are trying (and successfully so) to do as the damage control efforts are furious. There definitely is an obviously racist component within the co-opted, once libertarian based movement and the virus of outright racism has been carried in by the massive influx of Republican operatives and opportunists as if it were smallpox infected blankets.
Friday, July 16, 2010 Jesse Ventura: Dug in Deeper than an Alabama Tick
I have always liked Jesse Ventura. His improbable election as Minnesota Governor has to be one of the greatest political stories of our time. Never mind the much more celebrated Republican gangster backed dirty takedown of California Governor Gray Davis that installed a tough guy movie stare by the name of Arnold Schwarzenegger in Sacramento That was a well plotted and extremely well executed coup against a sitting Governor. Jesse Ventura was legitimately elected and his bombastic and it was his outspoken, principled style of governance that made Ventura stand out. Well versed in flamboyant performances from his former careers as a wrestler and actor he went from politics to the punditry before MSNBC cancelled his show due to his opposition to the policies of the Bush-Cheney Axis of Evil. Ventura was shown the gate along with Phil Donahue as the nation was duped into following the plans of the Project For The New American Century and their hunger for global domination in the aftermath of the false flag "terrorist' attacks of September 11, 2001 which have been used as the rationale to transform the once upon a time "land of the free" into a militarist, fascist police state.
Sunday, July 4, 2010 Fourth of July on the Great American Lemming Farm (17 comments)
As the great journalist I.F. Stone once famously put it "All governments are run by liars and nothing they say should be believed." Today we all get to celebrate the lies. The Fourth of July never fails to bring out some of the biggest turds in the great American cesspool where the faux patriots desecrate their beloved stars and stripes by wrapping their corpulent and idiotic carcasses in cheap Chinese made clothing adorned with it, overloading their red, white and blue picnic plates with potato salad, beans and fatty meats and flying it in front of profit starved retail outlets to lure the already maxed out consumers (Jesus, what an inhuman term) into their emporiums of marked-up, sweatshop produced wares.
Monday, May 10, 2010 Alex Jones Pimps Phony Race War
Alex Jones, the proprietor of Infowars.com, a man who I have had serious reservations over for awhile now but due to the concept of finding an occasional diamond in a mountain of manure I have largely refrainied from critcizing is over the line. Mr. Jones, an influential online radio host, documentary producer and bombastic self-purported thruth sayer despite his failure to ever call out the Texas Oil Nazis, the Koch family, the Council For Foreign Policy or the John Birch Society on his syndicated show has now began to promote a dangerous meme.
Monday, March 29, 2010 Tea and Tribulation: Requiem for the Tea Party
So this is it for the Tea Party, it is a spent force and will soon (although not soon enough) pass into our national history. It will go kicking and screaming epithets as yet another of those horrific, herpetic blights that always seem to plague many of those who should know better and the rest of the perpetually angry, broken, knuckle-dragging losers who quite simply don't give a rat's ass. I predict that within the next year it will no longer exist, not because the passage of the pathetic excuse of a health 'reform' bill that was Christmas Day for the insurance parasites that shook the fascist Republicans to their roots and according to none other than Mr. Axis of Evil himself, David Frum was the party's Waterloo. The career lickspittle Frum's denunciation of the embarassment brought upon the Republican house of shame from throwing in with the likes of the Beckers, Dittoheads and Palinazis earned him scorn and the loss of his nice gig over at that roiling spring of neocon fascist filth The American Enterprise Institute.
Monday, March 1, 2010 Joe Stack, a Rising Tide and a Restless Oligarchy (3 comments)
There is something in the air in America, something very big is happening. With the already lame duck Barack Obama administration having done more to delegitimize the myth that the government is there to serve the people and that the Bush years were but an aberration. Now after the Wall Street bailouts and the continuing exporting of American jobs to juice corporate profits, the undermining of serious health care reform and the escalation of both wars and the police state an extremely ominous undercurrent is rippling through the land and while still in the early stages it has the establishment terrified and circling the wagons.
Sunday, February 21, 2010 In Defense of Joe Stack (2 comments)
Joe Stack did more than just go to the window and scream "I'm as mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore". He chose to make a statement against a tyrannical government long ago pried loose from any semblance of morality. Not that I would personally recommend flying an airplane into a government building full of people to make a statement but it takes a lot to shake the television lobotomized sheeple these days. Of course since Stack wasn't one of those dirty Muslim devils, therefore making his "terrorist' attack no asset to the Israeli warmonger coddling corporate media to fuel the frenzy for endless wars of imperialism his story was simply flushed down the memory hole in favor of the grand spectacle of Tiger Woods' press conference the very next day.
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 The Bigger The Lie: Phony War on Terror Resurgent
Fear is the key in America post 9/11, the day when the reset button was hit on over two centuries of 'democracy', the switch flipped fascist and while the election in 2008 of Barack H. Obama provided a brief respite the FEAR is back with a vengeance. An immoral, ruthless and deranged ruling class must be propped up at all costs and the huge rise in media stories on al CIAda, phony terror alerts and rumors of war are prepping the sheep for the coming slaughters.
Wednesday, January 13, 2010 A Farewell to Arms: Why I Left "The Left' (14 comments)
To Hell with the 'left'! I am finished, done, disillusioned and over it, the divorce papers have been filed and are now finalized and I am not going back. As of this day, I will no longer allow myself to be affiliated or endorse the 'left' in any way, shape or form. So long folks, it was real and it was fun but in the end it was unfulfilling and dare I say, a waste of time and effort. Is this overly harsh? Perhaps it is but the break had to be made and it can no longer be put off. I assure you, this was no hasty decision but rather something that has been a slow and agonizing process, a steady drip"drip"drip.., like Chinese water torture and suddenly the mind goes, the spirit breaks and the ugly reality of the situation cannot be denied or disguised. So to all of my good friends on the left I wish you the very best but I am no longer one of you and maybe I never was, it was never dogma to me only a desire for some sort of social fairness and a fair shot but the American left being a shell of it's former self with labor broken and the DLC corporatists having taken over the Democratic party it has been reduced to shills for the Democrats and squabbling identity groups each with an agenda that prevents any sort of unity necessary for a mass movement for real change. Sucks but that is just the way it has to be.
Saturday, November 7, 2009 FL Gov. Charlie Crist Stonewalls in Octopus Murders Case
Under constant seige by the Dick Armey of Darkness and ambitious Jeb Bush protege Marco Rubio's savage pandering to rabid right wingers, Florida Governor Charlie Crist's office is according to a press release by Rachel Begley of Desertfae currently blocking the extradition of Octopus Murders suspect Jimmy Hughes.
Saturday, October 17, 2009 Star Spangled Land of Misfit Toys - A Review of Chris Hedges' Empire of Illusion (1 comments)
As Aldous Huxley once said "Most ignorance is vincible ignorance. We don't know because we don't want to know" which passes for visionary in America circa 2009. I have long found Chris Hedges to be a beacon of morality in the belly of the beast that is post 9/11 fascist America. His book War is a Force that Gives Us Meaning is a superbly written, uncompromising look at the horrors of war seen through the eyes of a man who has been there, Hedges served as a war correspondent in some of the most vicious and senseless slaughtering sprees of the late Twentieth Century. His sheer courage in coming out in the early days of the Bushreich and denouncing war during a commencement address at Rockford College when the phony War on Terror was just ramping up during which he was jeered by the audience, his microphone cut off and he was run like a rabid dog from the campus, later his employer, the so-called liberal New York Times stabbed him in the back. Hedges went on to write what I consider to be a definitive expose of the authoritarian Christian Right entitled American Fascists and contributes weekly columns to the fine website Truthdig. As a fan, it was only natural that I would pick up his latest scathing condemnation of the dumb, foul rottenness that is America in terminal decline and while uneven it delivers like a baseball bat to the head. We truly are living in the existential Hell that is the Empire of Illusion.
Thursday, September 17, 2009 Wall Street Vultures to Feast on the Dead (1 comments)
Fat, sassy and back in the gambling business thanks to the Geithner-Bernanke-Summers three headed monster the rapacious ghouls on Wall Street are not only ready for more action now that their casinos are flush with house money extracted by the state but are finding new ways to pick the meat from granny's bones. With the precious stock markets being pumped up by a sinister months long Green Shoots propaganda blitz that was so audacious that even Goebbels would have been too ashamed to try it the illusion of recovery is in the air. Never mind the hopelessly unemployed, destitute, homeless and otherwise fucked over American sheeple, shit, they are too busy fighting amongst themselves being manipulated by demagogues like that Commie Rupert Murdoch's employee Glenn Beck to notice. Now they have another distraction with the ACORN (translation for angry white dopes: niggers) pimp scandal that is being carpetbombed by the corporate swine media, a good thing too because bought and paid for Max Baucus has just rolled out forced conscription for all into the insurance industry gulag with the power of the state to be used as the muscle to shakedown the peasants.
Tuesday, September 15, 2009 Nice Job Ron Paul Schmucks (7 comments)
The carnival of perversion that was the Becker march on Washington over the weekend only makes it more painfully apparent that the Ron Paul movement which I used to admire as the most energetic and vibrant phenomenom in American politics of late is officially dead. Stick a fork in their asses, they're done. They have been hijacked (very easily I might add) and used as an exo-skeleton for the drooling, jackbooted, race baiting, anti-intellectual fascism that is eating the country from within as termites and exemplified by the hero of millions FOX's Glenn Beck.
Wednesday, August 19, 2009 Time to Jump Start the Anti War Movement
With the final betrayal of the progressive left still stinging like salt rubbed into a raw wound and the Pope of Hope's filthy Judas administration in full damage control mode after Sunday's slip by Health and Human Services Secretary Katherine Sebelius that the public option was about to have its life support unplugged. The public option -without it any 'reform' of health care is no more than garbage - was the feckless fallback position for the corporate puppet Obama rather than the right thing which would be national single payer insurance and in true form the white flag was already run up by the reigning lord of the jackass party. You would think with armed thugs now carring assault weapons prowling Obama town halls that he and his rotten liar cabal of Wall Street and insurance water carriers that he would be a bit less likely to alienate those who are the true base but once again it is made evident of how much we are all being played for fools and chumps and have been ever since the DLC decided to throw in with the Reagan Revolution.
Sunday, July 19, 2009 Main Core, PROMIS and the Shadow Government (Pt. 4a)
In the first three installments of this series I examined the existence of the massive surveillance state database MAIN CORE and how similar tools of oppression are destroying American civil liberties. I also took a look at the criminality of many members of the Bush administration (especially Dick Cheney) and their crusade against The Constitution as well as Cheney's involvement in Continuity of Government programs. I wrote of the targeting of journalists by the rogue cabal operating out of Cheney's office (which is even more relevant with the news of CIA death squads) to crush dissent. In this installment I want to draw a bigger picture of how a network of Wall Street oligarchs, rogue intelligence operatives, organized crime figures and the mysterious alliances that have led to the hostile takeover of the United States. This is the story of what 'suicided' investigative journalist Danny Casolaro called "The Octopus" and it's ascendance to the highest levels of power.

Wednesday, May 20, 2009 Imminent Peril: Dick Cheney and the Shadow Government (2 comments)
It would be somewhat of a falsehood to say that Dick Cheney has now gone rogue with a national media tour during which he not only defends torture but also undermines the new regime of Barack Obama... Cheney has always been rogue. From even before the day that he as the head of George W. Bush's vice presidential selection committee chose himself as the best possible candidate this has been a dark and amoral ascent from the bowels of the shadow government to the most powerful man on the planet.

Monday, April 13, 2009 Goldman Sachs: The Real Pirates
In the ongoing media Battle of the Bulge of the finance oligarchs that has brilliantly sold idiot America the blatant falsehood that the economy has turned for the better (tell that to all the poor bastards in the tent cities that are sprouting up across the fruited plain) the big boys have struck back. In a masterpiece of propaganda only surpassed in recent history by the great General Petraeus led SURGE that flushed a bloody defeat in Iraq down the memory hole the same strategy has been applied in selling the notion that the zombie banks are alive and well. I am going to address this in far more detail in my upcoming piece that will be out in the next few days entitled "Hooray! The Surge is Working...Again" but I just wanted to chime in on this news.

Monday, March 30, 2009 Usurious Bastards: Finance Oligarchs Win Again (3 comments)
The history of the last century shows, as we shall see later, that the advice given to governments by bankers, like the advice they gave to industrialists, was consistently good for bankers, but was often disastrous for governments, businessmen, and the people generally.

I am currently writing a piece on the horrific killing spree of the heinously pre-meditated and viciously merciless Christmas Eve rampage of one angry white male loser named Bruce Pardo. This man is a domestic terrorist with a number of traits that would strongly suggest that he is one of the aggrieved types who is attracted to the dittohead neo-Nazi brigades.

Monday, July 14, 2008 Israel's Big Iranian Adventure: Hell Is Coming! (7 comments)
According to an article in Sunday's London Times George W. Bush has now given his blessing to the criminal nation of Israel to go forward with the ill-conceived and soon to have disastrous consequences for the rest of the planet (especially Der Homeland) strike on Iran's nuclear facilities. I cannot possibly understate the ramifications of such an insane sanctioning of an outright act of war that at the very LEAST is going to crash the economy and at the worst is going to lead to an era of human misery and suffering on this spinning orb unlike anything seen since the worst days of World War Two. This is the big one folks, our ticket to the dance is about to be punched and history (if there is anyone left to tell it) will damn us for eternity for our collective complicity in this global conflagration.
Friday, July 11, 2008 The War's Over Rambo: We Lost (1 comments)
Rarely a column (especially one in an establishment rag like the Washington Post) is able to completely sum up a decades running American tragedy like Harold Meyerson's "Why Were We In Vietnam?". This piece in and of itself should be an essential part of the arsenal when it comes to the inevitable re-fighting of the Vietnam war that is going to go live soon as a key part of the upcoming presidential campaign. The Vietnam War, always just below the surface of the American subconscious (even though a good amount of the population hadn't even been born when the choppers lifted of the embassy roof for the last time) like a trailside booby trap just waiting to be tripped anew by a ruthless post-Nixon political party of perverts, jackals, thieves, looters and thugs and their billion dollar propaganda machine.
Saturday, June 28, 2008 Strange Bedfellows: An Alliance Against Tyranny (4 comments)
Somewhat lost in the hand-wringing over two Supreme Court decisions on the rights of gun ownership and death to pederasts (has there ever been a country more obsessed with the death penalty? It's getting pretty creepy these days.) was the massive reduction in damages due as a result of the Exxon Valdez environmental by the fascist bloc of pocket justices who are worth every penny that corporatists have paid to advance their careers. While the trademark wedge issues have set the corporate media and far too many of the blogs atwitter, the shaving off of $2 billion and change from the damages owed to the state of Alaska by those greedy bastards at Exxon shows exactly what this country is all about. Two systems of justice, one for the rich and the corporatists and one for all of us lesser beings, just another day in the ongoing travesty of societal decay among the feed cattle of the vampire elite here in Der Homeland.
Friday, June 13, 2008 The Larry Sinclair Toxic Slime Bomb (2 comments)
In what promises to potentially be the long awaited hit amidships to the hopes of presumptive Democratic Party nominee Barack Obama the National Press Club is whoring itself out as a forum for the allegations of some pathetic little dirtbag loser named Larry Sinclair who has been floating around the seamier corners of the internet. Just when it appears that America is finally ready to discard the ugly politics of the past forty years that have brought us to the brink of ruination this pimping out of the National Press Club like some version of the Drudge Report echo chamber is going to be used to continue to implement the smear, tabloid trash and gossip that have for too long been used to divide and dupe the American people into electing fascist garbage against their own self interests.
Sunday, June 8, 2008 Gathering Storms and Changing Guards
Friday's near 400 point drop in the Dow despite an unprecedented (and borderline legal) series of efforts by the Federal Reserve and other central banks to keep the house of cards financial markets propped up should serve as a crack of thunder to those who had been deceived into believing that the economic storm had passed. The accompanying skyrocketing of oil prices (largely due to a dollar in freefall) and an unemployment rate that no longer can be concealed by statistical chicanery confirms the obvious that the United States and the world itself is on the precipice of a cataclysm of historical proportions.
Wednesday, June 4, 2008 Continuity Of Government: Lynchpin For A Police State (2 comments)
I have blogged a bit lately on the Continuity Of Government (C.O.G.) programs that in my personal belief were intrumental in executing the coup d'etat by a secret/shadow government using the 9/11 'terrorist' attacks as justification. These programs have been existence since the Cold War era and were ostensibly for protection of the U.S. government in the event of a Soviet nuclear attack/decapitation strike. They are highly secretive and very real despite the sort of paranoid, X Files connotations that will be made by those who dare not research them on their own lest they find their core beliefs of government and American society shaken to the very roots. I would like to take this opportunity to share with readers an article that I only ran across this morning on these extremely dangerous programs and the threat to the Constitution and life as we have known it that are only a signature from the pen of George W. Bush/Dick Cheney (who are now becoming increasingly desperate) from being put into motion.

Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Obama the Muslim, 9/11 and Luttwak's Coup (18 comments)
It was brought to my attention this piece in the New York Times by Edward Luttwak that drags out the Barack Obama as a Muslim story in the most legitimate MSM forum yet. The piece is entitled "President Apostate?" and continues to spread the neocon whisper campaign that greatly benefits the campaigns of the win-win scenario of McClinton in November. Who is Edward Luttwak? Suffice it to say that he wrote the manual on how to execute a Coup d'etat and in the piece that I am going to excerpt from by Maurizio Blondet from the collection of essays in the book "Neoconned Again" you will get a good idea on exactly where I am coming from.
Sunday, May 11, 2008 Coming Together: A Mini Manifesto
Now that even the corporatist beltway elite lackey media has slowly come to recognize the inevitability of the political version of the unbeatable New England Patriots losing the big one it's time to put the intramural pissing matches aside and to start reorganizing for a shot at the true target. The Hillary Rodham-Clinton campaign now faces fourth and thirty-two, has the ball at it's own twenty yard line, is down by eight and there are sixteen seconds left in the Super Bowl. It's not exactly officially in the books yet but the fat lady is humming and the opposing team has just administered the traditional Gatorade baptism to their head coach on the sidelines.
Tuesday, April 29, 2008 God Damn Media Owes Reverend Wright an Apology
After his Friday interview with PBS journalist Bill Moyers and after the specially edited for the dual purposes of fearmongering and race baiting for political gain sound bytes were heard in their proper context the fake devil that is the Reverend Jeremiah Wright not only right but he is deserving of an apology by every lazy corporate media hack who have once again chosen that a regular paycheck earned by picking the low hanging fruit and not upsetting the plantation masters is far more desirable than such quaint antiquities as journalistic integrity. When looking at the 'questionable' sermons in their true context I must agree and also must say that I have heard similar sentiments espoused by some of those on the right although in slightly less bombastic terms (they dearly cling to their blood soaked rag and whimper stars and stripes forever), it's called BLOWBACK (see Chalmers Johnson's book of same title) and this country has a closet full of murderous skeletons when it comes to those of darker skin.
Thursday, February 28, 2008 Hillary Clinton: Pirranha in a Pantsuit (2 comments)
Tuesday night's hundredth (or it just seems like it) Democratic Party debate was the gunfight at the OK Corral for Hillary Rodham-Clinton, time to take down that uppity new sheriff who was threatening the cattle barons and she rode into town with an icy glare, a lust for the kill regaled in full Machiavellian power bitch black. She sleazed, she slimed, she used innuendo, she bitched and she moaned and she tried to link Barack Obama to the dreaded Louis Farrakhan the fake devil who is the leader of the Nation of Islam who endorsed him which also allowed for the dealing from the bottom of the deck the balls nastiest of all weapons: the Anti-Semite card. Farrakhan, the dude with that nifty bowtie just like the one that Tucker Carlson likes to prance around in may have endorsed Obama but he is far from the only national figure to do so, Chris Dodd came out for the B Man yesterday as well and we sure as hell aren't allowed to scrutinize the "New York money people" as Clinton supporter Wesley Clark refers to them who funnel money into the Hillary machine despite their loathsome support of human rights abuses and war crimes against the Palestinians but that is another rant for another time.
Monday, February 25, 2008 John McCain: War Hero or War Criminal? (17 comments)
So in what should be no surprise to anybody it turns out that John McCain is really no different than say Rudy Giuliani outside of military service of course but I'll get to that in awhile. He is a charlatan, a philanderer, a hypocrite, a panderer and a man whose judgment and hair trigger temper should not allow him to occupy the oval office, that is if anything resembling a change is really to occur. McCain has always portrayed himself as this great incorruptible figure who would stand up against the special interests, reign in the torture state and work in something resembling bipartisanship that would somehow defuse the festering hatred that has transcended the 'my team vs. your team', win at all costs corrosiveness that has created factions in America that could one day equal the kind of generational hatred that is passed down in Europe and far less exceptional places than God's other chosen land the USA. He was a maverick, he was different and even Mr. Republican himself the great Rush Hudson Limbaugh III who is the personification of every single element of the GOP hates his guts but then the story broke.
Sunday, February 17, 2008 Surrender Hillary
The aura of invincibility has been savagely punctured like the hymen of a virgin deflowered by former horndog in chief Bill Clinton himself. The wagons are now being circled, the war paint applied and Barack Obama is now moving into uncharted territory, dangerous waters where only sharks and other flesh eating creatures dare to venture and if history is any indicator he will be ripped apart faster than you can say fresh meat. Hell ,they say hath no fury like a woman scorned and when that woman happens to be one Hillary-Rodham Clinton you can rest assured that every last bullet in the arsenal will be expended to lay down a withering barrage in order to clear the path to the Democratic nomination.
Wednesday, February 13, 2008 Dear Democrats, Screw You Too!
It has come down to this, an abusive marriage that is no longer tolerable and that needs to be terminated. The antiwar movement now has no choice other than to split from a cynical and calculating Democratic party that has cooed sweet nothings to it for too long now and once the votes were counted gone off to the whorehouse where the real action is. With the inevitable (think superdelegates) Hillary Rodham-Clinton vs. John McCain matchup this November there will be no political recourse when the deal is consummated and the war machine moves to attack Iran. This much is certain because there is no substantive difference between those two warmongering candidates and then when the deal is done the amazingly resilient neocons will have in John McCain a new host.
Saturday, January 26, 2008 The New York Times' Big F**k You To Rudy Giuliani (1 comments)
The damned liberal New York Times unleashed a blistering attack on former mayor and ghoulish 9/11 fear pimp Rudolpho Giuliani in Friday's endorsement of Manchurian McCain for the Republican nomination. This was stunning to see exactly because it is dead on the mark in portraying the American Il Duce as the philandering fascist rat bastard that he truly is when all of that phony hero bullshit is stripped away. This is absolutely brilliant:
Tuesday, January 22, 2008 The Looter Capitalist Manifesto: The Powell Memo (2 comments)
I have decided to resume this series on influential figures who foretold the rise of flag wrapped fascism and looter capitalism after for some unexplainable reason leaving it to wither on the vine for awhile despite it's popularity. The first three installments featured the legendary (and largely ignored other than when the corporatist Hillary Clinton invokes to prove her bogus left wing bonafides - he was the subject of her thesis) organizer and activist Saul Alinsky, former FDR Vice President Henry A. Wallace who wrote about what an American fascist would do in a now classic 1944 New York Times piece entitled The Danger of American Fascism and was eliminated withe extreme prejudice from the political scene for his anti-fascism as a result and General Smedley D. Butler who dared to call a spade a spade in his classic tract aptly entitled War Is A Racket as well as blew the whistle on a coup plotted by then captains of industry and banking against President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This will be an ongoing if irregular series, typically I have no set thing that I want to write about and it is usually decided by whatever mood that I am in on any given day.
Friday, January 18, 2008 Obama and America's Bad Case of Reagan Idolatry (6 comments)
I nearly choked on my coffee this morning when I saw that Barack Obama invoked none other than Ronald Reagan in a favorable manner when talking about agents of change and seemed to make the comparison between himself and the foul democracy hating monster that somehow rose to the point where there is actually an effort by some lunatic fringe groups to have his head added to Mount Rushmore. I mean what the fuck? Perhaps the ambitious Obama misspoke but despite whatever levels that he would stoop to win in Nevada invoking Bonzo's better half is only going to ensure that he will soon exceed Queen Hillary in toxicity with the party base. Hell, to me Ronald Reagan is nothing short of the herald of the fucking Antichrist and the mere mention of his loathsome name jacks my blood pressure up into dangerous territory. If there was ever any one person more responsible for the looming economic catastrophe, the intentional dumbing down of America, the secret government operating without any sort of accountability and the moral rot that has infected this once thriving nation it was Ronald Reagan.
Thursday, January 3, 2008 Working the Big Con in the Land of Corn
The Christmas season is finally mercifully over and we can all go back to comfortably hating again. Retailers are nearly finished closing out their Chinese made plastic Santas and inflatable snow globes for pennies on the dollar and consumers are further ensnared by debt for baubles that they don't need, the wretched bush league Illini defense still hasn't stopped USC from scoring and the professional grifters are stepping up their activities out on the hustings. The deceitful charlatans are stepping up their move through the breeding beds of suckers in the godforsaken frozen wasteland of Iowa, trolling for the rubes that will largely set the agenda for the selection of the successor to the mockery that is George W. Bush - barring martial law of course. It is just all so fucking surreal as we watch the national pocket media kingmakers turn their focus to the land of corn and the pagan orgy of lies and sublime stupidity where those whose ears are keen enough can just barely detect the death knell of the republic on the icy early January winds out on the plains.

I wrote this nasty rant a couple of weeks ago but having my personal stocking filled the brim with bogus fucking capitalist greed Christmas cheer I am compelled to offer it up here - maybe I am pissing in the eggnog for a lot of folks but the rank hypocrisy of fuzziness and good cheer is a grand fraud perpetuated by hucksters, demagogues and foisted off on a public that deserves nothing less than stockings filled with reindeer shit come Tuesday morning:
Saturday, November 24, 2007 A Rotting Empire, A Restive Oligarchy and Ron Paul (1 comments)
First off I want to emphatically state that I do not endorse political candidates and this piece should not be interpreted as an endorsement for Ron Paul, rather it is a series of my thoughts on why it is that his popularity continues to grow. I don't endorse candidates for the simple reason that I always prefer to call out hypocrisy and corruption both of which are plentiful and have gotten to a point where I have developed an extreme distaste for the electoral process itself. I have in the past done a good amount of posting on blogs that wear their party loyalty on their sleeves and while I have generally preferred Democrats I just don't have the stomach for them anymore either. Besides, I am now and have always been a registered independent although I increasingly am finding myself drawn towards a more libertarian point of view for what should be obvious reasons.

With King George's shameless proclamation last night that things have improved so much in Iraq that he can start bringing some troops back home(just like a pickpocket giving you ten bucks as a gift after lifting your wallet) Petraeus Week is now in the books. The "Surge" has received due credit as a heaven sent panacea for the blood soaked debacle in the desert and the PNAC plans for regional conquest (or as loony Ledeen likes to call it "creative destruction" are back on track. Even Osama bin Laden made yet another of those amazingly serendipitous appearances that always happen to occur just when the Bush-Cheney junta needs to pull a bogeyman out of the hat although skeptics are wondering just how the big spooky was able to get ahold of O.J.'s fake beard.

Sunday, August 5, 2007 Democrats and the Terrorism Tar Baby
When Emperor George W. Bush decreed from on high that he would keep the worthless candy asses belonging to the overrated, overpaid, contemptibly feckless ass clowns in Congress from taking ANOTHER FUCKING VACATION unless they rubberstamped his newest incarnation of the domestic spying bill you could hear the neutered little eunuch Harry Reid's bony knees knocking as his bladder loosed and the trickle of the urine of a coward ran down his chicken legs. It was only a matter of time until the House of Hoyer/Pelosi followed suit, God forbid that their latest precious fucking vacation (most Americans get two weeks if they are lucky) be cut short due to such trivialities as protecting the Fourth Amendment. Just chalk up another bad week in a never ending series of them for the Vichy Democrats, by now they must feel like they are playing the lead roles in Groundhog Day 2. Bush wins again and America's losing streak continues. Sure there are diehard Democratic party lackeys who will try to spin this latest cave in as anything other than the rollover that it truly is, the party who vowed to stop the wars and to hold the junta criminals accountable are just more of the same corrupt, poll driven, half-measure taking, four flushing jackasses only without the fig leaf of an excuse of being in the minority. The latest green lighting of Bush/Cheney's dictatorial powers sucks big time and there is no acceptable way to polish this turd.

Exactly WHAT do they know? The groundwork is being laid, the mind fields being seeded with propaganda and now Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff has a "gut-feeling" that something is going down this summer. Many have mocked Chertoff with jokes about his bowels as well as his competence when taken in conjunction with other chatter from fanatical right-wing operatives it is clearly apparent that this is crisis time. Former Senator and raving theocratic ideologue Rick Santorum stated during a recent interview that:
Monday, July 9, 2007 Warning Signs Part 3: Smedley D. Butler (2 comments)
There is one great voice that does not turn up in our sanitized and cleansed textbooks and his message was a condemnation of the callousness of the blood barters and his voice was one that spoke from experience. He is the highly decorated (two medals of honor) former USMC General Smedley Darlington Butler. General Butler was one of the earliest critics of American intervention and the plundering of foreign countries for the benefit of Wall Street looters who were all too glad to trade lives for profit. Butler wrote the scathing War Is A Racket that was a no-holds barred indictment of the early military-industrial complex. Butler told it like it was, not a convenient thing for the revisionist historians who write the textbooks to indoctrinate the good little Americans in the religion of the always great, always righteous and blessed land of plenty.
