It’s amazing all the shit that happens in only a matter of a
couple days. And this only scratches the surface of the surface.
Enjoy…
So, Yahoo! News ran a story about a woman from Abilene who
got a $1.3 million electric bill one month. It turned out that there was just a
computing error and the electric company was going to send out her corrected
bill. Humorous little story. No biggie.
Aside from all the brainiacs that feel the need to
complain in the comments section that it’s not news and Yahoo! just wasted
their time again (because apparently EVERY
news story needs to be devastatingly Earth-shattering), there were a few clever
replies that made me chuckle like this one: “I guess everything is
bigger in Texas.”
However, a large portion of THESE perennial fuck-wits
appeared with their ever-intelligent remarks, as they seem to in every comments section of every article, no matter what the topic is:
“I thought maybe
Obama had bought into utility companies now when I saw the hedline.”
“Find out how the
electric power is generated, i.e. what kind of fuel do they use? Then attach
the dynamo to ET Obamonkey for a great increase to the grid.”
“I can hear Obama
Say! Let me be perfectly Clear, It was Bush's FAULT!”
“I thought this was
a Story about how Obama has the Federal Government does there Math!”
“OWE-Bummer will
figure out some way to blame it on Bush...”
“DAMN!! i thought
OBUMMER got his way already with the electricity (necessarily sky rocketing) on
his "plan" when i saw this... man thats a relief! get that muslim
outta office b4 we do have to pay a bill like that!!!!!”
“She needs to
convert to Solar or Wind...Obama will foot the bill for her with your tax
dollars...”
“The bill won't be
unrealistic if Obama gets a second term. Somebody has to pay for his green
agenda failures. That would us taxpayers.”
“waaaah waaaah
waaaaah.... just pay the bill and make companies like GE and Solyndra who pay
no taxes happy. Obama 2012 nope.”
“"tries to make
ends meet. … I get my bills and I pay them.". WOW... she is TONS better
than Obama! Can we elect her instead?”
“Get use to it. If
Obama wins another 4 years EVERYTHING is going to be taxed to h3ll and
overpriced.”
“Well Obama said
that our energy prices would need to skyrocket.”
“Obamas idea of a
ballanced budget for the government. Charge the governments bills to a
different person each month.”
“We'll ALL be hit
with $1.3 million after the Food Stamp President is done.”
“That bill was
supposed to go to the White House I bet. Makes sense to me.”
“More of Obama's
"change you can believe in". This is actually the normal bill after
another 4 years of Obama and his cronies in control, get used to it.”
“Obama's green
energy is working well isn't it...”
“No that is the rate
next year after Mr. Obama is reelected.”
“It's Berry Obamas
idea of what the rates should be under his enviromental guide lines.”
“Precisely where
Obama wants energy bills.Bet he was proud of that.”
Then there are these
kinds of nutters:
“Ooo ok hau olld is
she 350 yer n she dont pay her bill for vholll har life i think.”
A large portion of the
Obama-aimed comments (I did not include them all, many were obviously just
repeated brainwashings) claimed that Obama wants energy prices to increase.
In an interview a
while ago, he stated that in order for the alternate energy movement to really
get a lot of support, current energy prices would need to skyrocket. Which is
true. He was stating the obvious that in most situations, a fire is usually lit
under a problem before any real action is taken.
Of course, after
reading these uninformed comments, I realized that on FOX “News” and right-wing
radio it was reported that “Obama wants energy prices to increase!” leaving out the context.
A misinformed follower
is an obedient follower.

Job numbers are
getting worse.
This is the lie that Mitt Romney’s entire campaign rests on: the idea that we will all
be better off under his Republican rule since Obama is a dismal failure at
creating jobs. Since jobs are indeed, for a fact, increasing (in spite of continued Republican
filibustering of every real
job-creating bill), the Romney campaign is asking Republican Governors to stop
boasting about their improving state economies since this contradicts his
manufactured narrative. Two officials on Florida Republican Governor Rick
Scott’s re-election campaign confirmed they were asked by the Romney campaign
to stop letting everyone know the positive facts. It just might be a little
difficult for the Governors, who also are running for re-election, to have
campaigns that say they personally suck.
So, Mittens, you might
want to change your campaign narrative from “Obama made the economy worse” to
“Despite 100% Republican obstructionism, Obama has at least managed to keep
America alive.”
Other than falsely
claiming Obama made the economy worse so we should vote for you and that you
will do the opposite of everything Obama wants to do and that you will undo all
the things Obama has done, what is your actual platform, Romney? Aside from
being a member of the Party of NO, what EXACTLY do you stand for?
Here is EXACTLY what
Mitt Romney stands for…
You dick.

Did you ever try to sell anything you own? Did you ever have
a garage sale? Did you ever buy anything off of ebay or Craigslist?
Well, all that may soon be illegal.
That’s right. Depending on a Supreme Court decision,
anything you purchased that has even one part made overseas (which is almost
everything) may require you to get permission from the corporation that holds
the copyright if you want to resell it – which they will inevitably deny since
they would rather a new item was bought from them for a profit instead of
second-hand from you.
No one will be able to own anything they buy. It will still
belong to the corporation.
If the Supreme Court upholds the lower court’s decision:
Want to sell your car? Can’t. Want to sell some DVD’s?
Can’t. Want to sell any old clothes? Can’t. Want to sell your baby’s changing
table or any old toys? Can’t. CD’s? Nope. Camera? Uh-uh. Your house? Hope it
doesn’t have any fixtures made in China. You may be fined or imprisoned for
breaking newly interpreted copyright law.
Ebay – gone. Craigslist – gone. Amazon – deeply affected.
Because the rich still
aren’t rich enough.
“Corporations are people, my friend.” – Mitt Romney
Feel like doing what you can about it?

I told you about
LiberalLogic101 the other day. A friend posted this on Facebook:
This was my response:
Conservative Logic 101:
Don’t give a man a fish…
…because that’s Socialism.
Don’t teach a man to fish…
…because we need to cut teachers from the government payroll
since that is also Socialism.
Give a corporation a tax break for sending jobs overseas,
ignore the fact that it’s Socialism for the wealthy, then tell your
constituents that corporate profits will “trickle down” even though it never,
for a fact, ever has…
…and he will vote Republican for a lifetime.
(Yes, they are that stupid.)
- Nobody responded.
Hey, I wonder if that wealth ever trickles down to the foreigners
working the American jobs that the corporations sent overseas?

How come all the
people that incessantly call everyone “sheeple” are always the ones obediently
repeating thoroughly debunked right-wing nonsense? And right-wing phrases like
“sheeple?”
Oh, yeah. It’s called
“projection.”
Nevermind.

34 Lawmakers Changed Their Investments After Receiving Private Briefings About 2008 Economic Crisis and continue to do so
today with impunity due to the laws they write to allow themselves to do it.
But at least that insider trading bitch Martha Stewart learned her lesson after
being sent to prison.
Does Congress wonder
why they have a 17% approval rating? At least it’s up from the 10% a few months
ago.
Throw the bums out. All
of them.

Well, it’s been 11
years since the first round of Bush tax cuts. The government better start
raising taxes again so corporations will be forced to stop creating so many
jobs. We don’t have enough American citizens to fill them all as it is. That’s
why they’re being sent overseas.

I learned something
very interesting from a Conservative recently.
The Democrats created
welfare as a program that intentionally prevents you from ever getting out of
it just to force you to take your only option, which is to join the military,
just so the Democrats can have the personnel to fight all the wars they keep
starting.
I found that
interesting. Don’t you find that interesting?
I also learned from
the same Conservative that Nixon got us out of the Vietnam war.
I did not find that
interesting. I found that fascinating.

On June 21, 2012, the US Supreme Court unanimously told the
FCC to eat shit.
In 2002, singer Cher said at the live televised Billboard
Music Awards, “I’ve also had my critics for the last 40 years saying that I was
on my way out every year. Right. So, fuck ‘em.”
The FCC fined FOX for Cher’s unscripted acceptance speech
taboo utterance. FOX fought it all the way to the Supreme Court.
In 2003, in the greatest scene on NYPD Blue ever, actress
Charlotte Ross showed her entire backside and sideboob. It was the greatest
scene on NYPD Blue ever. Charlotte Ross showed her entire backside and
sideboob.
The FCC fined ABC for the taboo human body parts exposure.
ABC fought the fine alongside FOX all the way to the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court unanimously ruled against the FCC on the
grounds that their “indecent material” rule is too vague.
The FCC can no longer dictate what can be said or shown on
television. Nudity and swearing can no longer be regulated. I’m pretty sure
television broadcasting will not devolve into an orgy of unmitigated
debauchery.
When the FCC inevitably tries to rewrite their rule so they
can once again make money off of what they
deem inappropriate and they’re inevitably brought to the Supreme Court again, I
have a feeling the First Amendment will once more be upheld.

Other than the fact that cannabis is slightly addictive
(however, far, far less than tobacco, heroin, cocaine and alcohol, and almost
no withdrawal symptoms), everything else is fairly true:
Smoke’em if you got ‘em if the Fed, state and local
governments ever get their heads out of their asses.
Brief History Of Marijuana In America by Comedian John

In 1993, the Conservative think-tank, the Heritage
Foundation proposed the ‘individual mandate’ in health care reform. Senate Republicans
almost unanimously have been supporting it since then – just under 20 years. It was
a major part of their alternate proposal to the Clinton health care proposal.
Mitt Romney included it in his Massachusetts health care plan. The MOMENT
President Obama included it in the Affordable Care Act, Republicans declared their
own idea to be unconstitutional. Every
single Republican that had signed onto bills supporting it in the past suddenly
declared it unconstitutional. The Heritage Foundation, the designers of the
‘individual mandate’ also suddenly declared their own proposal
unconstitutional.
Fuck you, you hypocritical Republican Fascists. Explain how
this is not putting your Party before the welfare of the country. Never mind.
Fuck you. You can’t do it without lying. Fuck you. I’m not interested in any
more of your pathetic, see-through lies. Fuck you. I’m sick of listing all YOUR
plans that you now oppose as soon as Obama supports it. Fuck you.
And we all know how the five fascists on the Supreme Court
will rule on it later this week.

Republicans hate the government. I totally understand.

Well, this is somehow not surprising:
In Louisiana schools, the Accelerated Christian Education
(ACE) program is teaching that the existence of Scotland’s Loch Ness monster is
proof that evolution is a hoax and that Creationism is real. And since the
Earth is only 6,000 years old and Noah’s flood happened 4,000 years ago and
dinosaurs lived alongside people, it’s certain that Noah rescued dinosaurs as
well, so they are still here now.
And yes, thanks to Governor Bobby Halfwit Jindal, Republican
of course, this religious bullshit is taxpayer funded. I thought that was
unconstitutional? I guess that never stopped a Republican before. Why should it
now?
Scotland is laughing at Louisiana. Of course, they’re now
using our idiocy for their tourism. Come see the monster that proves *heh*
Creationism, stupid Americans!
Here are some other teachings on the ACE curriculum:
-Science Proves Homosexuality is a Learned Behavior
-The Second Law of Thermodynamics Disproves Evolution
-No Transitional Fossils Exist
-Humans and Dinosaurs Co-Existed
-Evolution Has Been Disproved
-A Japanese Whaling Boat Found a Living Dinosaur
-Solar Fusion is a Myth
If I continue typing about this fucking religious
fundamentalist insipience, which I consider child abuse (adult abuse as well, I
guess), I’m not sure what I will do. So please enjoy this informative article and brilliant videos
instead:

Well, the five fascists – sorry, Republicans, on the Supreme
Court ruled that Citizens United must be upheld in all states – superseding
state law. I thought fas-Rupublicans were all like “States’ rights, states’
rights, states’ rights – Federal government bad!” I guess that’s unless it
clashes with a Conservative’s goal. Is there no end to their hypocritical,
solely right-wing supporting bullshit? The Supreme Court is just another
politically ideological group of shit-eating, fucking assholes. They uphold
nothing but Party ideologies, certainly not the law.
Democracy is not dead in America. It’s just corporate owned.
And people, please stop telling me Justice Anthony Kennedy
is the independent swing judge in the Court who could rule either way,
Conservative or Liberal. You would have an argument there only if he fucking
ONCE didn’t rule the Conservative way.

And the five
fa-Republicans on the Supreme Court upheld the ‘you have to show your papers’
part of the fascist Arizona SB1070 bill.
I dare you to tell me
this is the land of the free. It’s the land of WWII occupied France. Fascism at
its height.

“Liberalism is trust of the people tempered by prudence.
Conservatism is distrust of the people tempered by fear.” ~William E.
Gladstone, 1866, British Statesman and Prime Minister 1868-1894 and the most
prominent man in politics of his time, 1809-1898
I think that’s an accurate description of the two Parties in
America. However, I would like to point out that Liberals seem to operate on
excessive levels of trust and prudence, which creates an inability to govern
effectively. Conservatives, on the other hand, have mastered the art of
controlling their mindless automatons using fear and hate propaganda. Goebbels
would be proud: "That propaganda is good which leads to success, and that
is bad which fails to achieve the desired result. It is not propaganda’s task
to be intelligent, its task is to lead to success."
The perfect storm combination of excessive prudence by
rational thinking people versus mobilization by angry unthinking people is why
the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. And never the twain shall meet.

To leave off with some good news, Rhode Island Governor
Chafee (I) has signed the first ‘Homeless Bill of Rights’ in the nation.
Oh, and last week he signed a bill raising his state’s
minimum wage.
Cin-cin!
Good day.
