YouTube: Rush Limbaugh--Republican Leader, Gives Keynote Speech at CPAC
Man, Rush has really ballooned up again. Fat pig. The people cheering wildly, rest assured, are all white, not very well read, and haven't been outside of the United States all that often.

Just Wrong: 'Slumdog Millionaire' Child Star Beaten Publicly by Father

Obama Shoots for the Moon
.jpg)
Rahm Emanuel and Barack Obama have decided to strike out against the hobbled, divided Republicans now. Very early.To its supporters, Obama's new budget will finally address issues long overdue in America: universal health care, investment in developing new 'green technology' to wean us off of foreign oil and help prevent global warming, high speed rail, etc.
To its critics--and there will be many, it represents a massive lurch towards the left and Socialism. By taxing the 'wealthy' now, at a time when the country's in recession, to pay for all of these new expenses and obligations, is a prescription for disaster.
Rahm Emanuel is Barack Obama's Karl Rove, his consigliere if you will. The picture above is worth a thousand words. He's led Congressional Democrats to sweeping wins in both 2006 and 2008. The Republicans are at an all time low, a divided, crippled, enfeebled rival.
Obama's shooting for the moon.
The likely outcome will be compromise but still a healthy Obama win.

Despite the fact that it has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked...
Blagojevich and Burris are The Democratic Party's Sarah Palin and George W. Bush
This vacant Illinois Senate seat has become a clusterfuck. A trainwreck. A vomit. An abortion. Word's out now that Blago gave Burris' loser son a cush $75,000 job.
Unfortunately it calls into question the IQ of the people of the state of Illinois--the people who elected these dunces.
Just as the Bush/Gore recount in 2000 called in to question the collective intelligence of all Florida voters, and indeed the 2004 re-election of George W. Bush that of all American voters.
It is making the Democratic party look bad.
These two baffoons: Rod Blaogjevich and Roland Burris, make Sarah Palin and George W. Bush look savvy.

YouTube: Maine Coffee Shop Goes Topless
Probably not the only thing it raises, either--at least among some of the men who get their coffee there.Seriously, though, what a fantastic business idea. Why aren't coffee shops of this type around in every American city?
A TOPLESS COFFEE SHOP!!
Especially during a brutal recession. Coffee is much cheaper and less dangerous than booze, which is normally drunk at strip joints--and it looks like you can't beat the value of the additional entertainment derived.
The next I'm in Maine, I know where I'm getting my coffee.

Legalize It: California Congressman Wants to Tax Weed Sales as State Revenue Source
Pretty much everyone smokes weed, and the fact that it's illegal is both absurd and highly inefficient. It clogs up our jails, ties up our law enforcement agencies and courts, and perhaps most importantly fuels an enormously profitable black market economy. If it were simply legalized--like the vastly more dangerous and addictive drug of alcohol, the government could tax the fuck out of it, as it does to cigarettes and alcohol. Smart businessmen, not criminals, would then become involved and make the trade an efficient, well run enterprise. Read about Congressman Ammiano's plan for California here. Congressman, you have my support.

Norm Coleman: Sore Loser
It appears that Norm Coleman has definitiely lost his Senate seat in Minnessota, and as this article claims, is doing little more than now filing frivolous lawsuits in order to prevent his rival Democrat Al Franken from being seated.If this is indeed the case, than Coleman is putting himself and his party in front of the interests of the people.
Which tells me that it's a good thing that he lost, and that the country will be a better place because of it.

YouTube: TV Appearances Highlight GOP Idelogical Split: Jindal, Sanford vs. Crist, Schwarzenegger
On one side you had the extreme right, Rush Limbaugh fearing 'base' of the Republican party in South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal.
And on the other side you had the moderate, Green, pragmatic wing of the party who are looking to work with Obama in California Governor Schwarzenegger and Florida Governor Charlie Crist.
We had, therefore, in front of us today the ideological split that has and is ravaging the Republican party in front of millions, for all to see.
Who does everyone think won? From which wing does the party's future sucess lie with?

Balls Like Brass Shot Puts: Fraudster Billionaire Stanford Had Fleet of Private Jets, Castle
Needless to say, some freaky, freaky things are happening almost daily in the world of finance these days. We were just beginning to come to grips with the $50 billion dollar fraudster Bernie Madoff, when the world is now introduced to a new, $8 billion con man crook extraordinairre Sir Allen Stanford.
Take a look at that picture on the right. Would you invest two cents with a guy who looks like that? Nice child molester looking mustache, bro....

1,700 Pounds of Weed Found Hidden Under Cow Manure, Cow Piss
"It was a messy operation," Schreiber said Wednesday (click here for story).
That's a quote from one of the cops. I've got news for you, Mr. Cop: it was also a waste of time and taxpayer money. How about busting the booze and cigarette importers and exporters too? Oh, I forgot! Those drugs--far more dangerous and addictive than weed, are taxed, regulated, and, therefore...just fine and dandy!
Texas to Allow Helicopter Pig Hunting?
"You're not going to have some bubba up there going, `Pass me a beer and ammo' and hunting some hogs," the legislator said. "We certainly want to do it right."

Today's GOP: Fiscally Conservative When it's Politically Convenient
All of the howling and derision being heaped on the recently passed Obama economic stimulus plan by Republicans across the country is mildly amusing.
To be sure, $900 billion is a lot of money and some of it will no doubt be wasted and misspent. But in a billion years, it can't and won't be wasted this badly.
In the above Ripper Flashback segment, I re post an article that I originally wrote two years ago describing how $12 billion of shrink wrapped bricks of American $100 bills was shipped to Iraq in the aftermath of the invasion, and promptly vanished.
It vanished after US soldiers passed their time by playing football with a few of the bricks.
Where was the Republican outcry back then? Could there be a more clear example of wasteful spending?
Personally, I'd rather have my taxpayer money wasted in the USA than in Baghdad.

Florida Firemen Busted Growing Ganja
These two dudes deserve an A plus for ingenuity, creativity, and industriousness--especially in these lean economic times.The American taxpayer should stand up and applaud two guys like this, looking to bolster their meager incomes by providing the public with a recreational drug that is universally used, enjoyed, and about a billion times safer and healthier than booze.
The Florida Narc's who conducted this investigation deserve an F for wasting taxpayer's time and money prosecuting a failed policy.
Gee guys, how about legalizing it and then taxing the fuck out of it like you do with cigarettes and beer? What a concept!

Greenspan Comments on Economic Crisis
Ten years ago Alan Greenspan was the unrivaled chief financier in the universe.
The guy was universally looked at as a genius with both Democrats and Republicans stumbling over themselves to suck the guys shlong each time he gave Congressional testimony.
The guy, literally, shit ice cream.
Fast forward to now and Alan Greenspan is the spectre at the feast: widely seen as one of the people most responsible for the economic clusterfuck the world finds itself in.
As with most things, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.
Greenspan, a Republican, bought the whole dogma of deregulation and the 'magic of the free market' hook, line, and sinker.
He consistently discounted human greed and malfeasance and the incredibly bad effect those two hard to quantify intangibles have on the economy.

Fringe Right Food Fight: Pat Robertson Disses Rush Limbaugh Over Obama Remark
Wow, this doesn't happen publicly very often. Meaning one nationally recognized right wing nutball doesn't usually criticize another fringe right loony-tune out in the open like this...Don't expect Limbaugh to take this one sitting down, either--he isn't known for, shall we say, exercising restraint.
The Republican party, over the last 200 years, has very infrequently found itself in as dire straits as it does now. No leadership, no ideas, and a shrinking, anti-immigrant, membership.

2012 on the Minds of GOP Governors Crist and Sanford
I still believe Mitt Romney is the odds on favorite to be the Republican party's presidential nominee in 2012, but as this article discusses, two of his potential rivals are current Florida governor Charlie Crist and current South Carolina governor Mark Sanford.Sanford is from the hard right Rush Limbaugh fringe of the GOP's base, and Crist is a Schwarzenneger-type, pragmatic, moderate Republican who actually campaigned with Obama in support of the recently passed economic stimulus bill.
Lots of buzz about current Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal as well, but Romney's the 'next in line' for the GOP--a party that has historically rewarded loyalty....

Minnesota Recount Battle Drags On
Here's an update on the contested Senate race in Minnesota, which is basically a state level microcosm of the legal quagmire that emboiled George W. Bush and Al Gore over eight years ago.Lucky for America, this time around its looking increasingly clear that the good guys will win....
The outcome of this race is incredibly important because it seems like the emerging Republican congressional strategy is to try and block anything Obama proposes with a 40 person filibuster proof minority.

Another Madoff Investor Commits Suicide
“I think it’s disgusting that Bernie Madoff is sitting in his New York property, thinking that all he did was steal money, when, in fact, what he was really doing was ruining lives.
The world wide economic tsunami and Bernard Madoff--the biggest crook in world history, claims another victim.
Tempests in a Teapot
The American political world is currently abuzz with the news that Republican Senator Judd Gregg has withdrawn as Obama's Commerce Secretery nominee. In doing so, he joined Bill Richardson and Tom Daschle as Obama cabinet nominees who have not made it due to a variety of reasons: Richardson due to a New Mexico corruption scandal that is hovering over him, and Daschle because of unpaid taxes.
Gregg--after openly lobbying for the Commerce position, apparently had a sudden change of heart and boldly proclaimed that the ideological differences between he and Obama were just too vast.
The move was pure Bush-league and will forever tarnish Senator Gregg's reputation.
Republicans are giddy because these setbacks are the only political victories they've had in going on three years.
But in the grand scheme of things, all of these occurances are nearly totally insignificant. No one will remember 7 years from now, deep into Obama's second term, who the fuck Judd Gregg even was.
Indeed if Republicans are willing to pop open the champagne for these silly little wins, its only more evidence of what an abyss their party currently finds itself in.

Karl Rove Reports in from his Parallel Universe
It's really weird to ponder the freakishly awful recently passed 8 years of the Bush presidency. Many of us would like to try to forget, but these days you've got Karl Rove (aka 'Bush's Brain', which really isn't saying much) writing editorial pieces for the Wall Street Journal seemingly every other day.
I mean, does anyone take this clown seriously anymore??
The GOP's Death Trip
Today's Republican party is pathetic. Pathetic. Rudderless. Leaderless. A ship without a sail. Adrift. Atrophying. Wilting. Decaying....Heading towards extinction. From John McCain to Sarah Palin, to Rush Limbaugh, on down the line to new party chairman Michael Steele. Pathetic.
By nearly universally voting against Obama's stimulus plan today, Republicans are desperately trying to relive their early 1990's glory days.
In 1992 every single Republican in Congress voted against then new Democratic president Bill Clinton's economic stimulus plan.
Two years later on the winds of Newt Gingrich's "Contract with America" the party swept into power, displacing a nearly five decade long Democratic grip on the House of Representatives.
Alas, though, we are a long ways away from the early 90's....The country is currently mired in a depression--that's right depression with a 'd': schools, cities, hospitals, and families are going bust, broke, and are looking for help--help from anyone.
The Republican party's response? A big 'FUCK YOU, HELP YOURSELF'.
There will be consequences.

Balls Like Shot Puts: Madoff's Wife Withdrew $15 Million on Eve of Husband's Arrest
This should help put to rest the absurd notion that Bernard Madoff was acting along in perpetrating the biggest theft in world history.The fact that the Madoff's--both Bernie and Ruth (at right with son Andy), have spent the last two months spread out in their luxury Manhattan townhouse is one of the biggest miscarriages of justice I've ever heard of.

Banking Douchebags to be Flogged by Congress Tomorrow
Politicians in Washington love to put on a good show for their consituents back home. Tomorrow, when the CEO's of America's major banks congregate to appear before Congress to testify about their roles in the current financial meltdown, promises to be must see theatre.But, alas, nothing will come of it. It will be a colossal waste of time and money. Congressional 'leaders'--many of whom don't know the difference between a stock and a bond, will spend hours asking dumb questions looking to embarrass the bankers.
The bankers, slick and oily politician type beings in their own right (albeit richer, and more corrupt--if that's even fathomable) will talk a lot but alas actually say very little.
So it will be showtime in Washington tomorrow. As America burns.

The Impending Internet Communications Backlash
I've had it up to here with Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Digg, SMS texting, instant messaging, and yes even e-mail....ENOUGH!!!
What the fuck ever happened to sitting down with your thoughts, pen in hand, and writing a physical letter to someone? You know, something real, something that actually exists, that can actually stand the test of time??
Or for God's sake even picking up the telephone and calling a friend or family member instead of Internetting them???
I've found that communicating with people electronically--especially friends and personal acquaintances, tends to warp my relationship with them.
I am much more likely to be a bombastic, controversial prick in my e-mail communications. Safely behind a keyboard, separated by the wide, anonymous, somewhat creepy expanse of the Internet netherworld, I feel like I can write anything to a friend online and get away with it.
All the subtlety and nuance of face to face communicating--which is so critical, is lost electronically: hand gestures, voice intonation, the look into one's eyes.
If I told half of my friends in person what I tell them over the Internet, I'd be getting into a ton of physical altercations.
Facebook, in my eyes, has already hit its tipping point and is on the decline. It has jumped the shark, so to speak. No one has ever told me what exactly it does, and as of yet no one makes any money on it.
All of this shit twenty years from now will be looked on mainly as being a fad. Sure, there's a place for e-mail in the world and there always will be.
But all the other stuff is mostly bullshit. Fads that have already peaked and are on their way down.

Obama Hits The Road
After spending two plus weeks giving a Herculean effort to be bipartisan and trying to woo Republicans over to support his economic stimulus plan, a jilted Obama will today begin an altogether new coercion strategy on his erstwhile GOP foes: blunt force.
As this article reports, he will hit the road and begin using his enormous popularity with the American people to directly make his case.
The GOP has already overplayed its hand, and the party is currently experiencing a leadership void: it has no one single figure it can turn to to try and stand up to Obama, and the American people continue to suffer as the economy hemorrhages jobs.
Obama 1, Republicans 0. Expect a more pliant GOP from now on.

YouTube: Sea War: Environmentalist Ship Rammed by Illegal Japanese Whaling Ship
About the video:
At 1800 Hours the harpoon vessels Yushin Maru No. 1 and the Yushin Maru No.3 decided to run the Sea Shepherd blockade to transfer two dead whales to the flensing deck of the Nisshin Maru. The Sea Shepherd ship Steve Irwin was blocking the slipway to prevent the transfer in order to shut down the illegal Japanese whaling operations.
As the Nisshin Maru attempted to hook onto the dead whale, the Steve Irwin and the Yushin Maru No.3 collided with the forward starboard side of the Steve Irwin and the port stern side of the harpoon vessel coming together.
"We told them to not continue their illegal whaling operations and that we would be blocking the stern slipway of the factory ship," said Captain Paul Watson. "They decided to test our resolve and apparently expected us to retreat when they charged in ahead of us to make the transfer."
Captain Watson said that the Steve Irwin became difficult to control under a barrage of metal objects, blasts from the water cannons, and the disorientation caused by the LRAD acoustic weapons that the whalers were using on the conservationists.
"I was dazed by the sonic blasts being used on us at close range." said Captain Watson. "I have to admit it was difficult to concentrate with that devise being focused on us."
"I've never felt anything quite like it," said Emily Hunter from Toronto, Canada. "It penetrates the body and you can feel your muscles vibrating. It made me dizzy and left me somewhat dazed."
The Steve Irwin suffered no noticeable damage from the collision and no one was seriously injured. A few of the Sea Shepherd crew were struck by golf balls and pieces of metal. The crew of the Steve Irwin were unable to determine if there was any damage done to the harpoon hunter killer boat.
The two whales were transferred after the Steve Irwin shut down the operations of the fleet for twelve hours.
"We are trying to make this as difficult as possible for them to continue their illegal activities, "said Molly Kendall from Adelaide, South Australia. "It is difficult to see them murdering these whales and we are determined to do everything we possibly can to stop this horrific slaughter."
The Steve Irwin remains on the tail of the Nisshin Maru to attempt to obstruct any further transfers in an effort to stop the unlawful poaching of the whales by the Japanese whaling fleet.
"I wish we did not have to be down here in this dangerous situation," said Captain Watson. "I've said repeatedly that if Australia or New Zealand would agree to take Japan to the international court on this than we would back off. Because international law is not being enforced, we have no choice but to do what we can with the resources available to us to defend these endangered whales in this established international whale sanctuary."

Bill Gross: Government Stimulus Should be Trillions, not Billions
Bill Gross's PIMCO is the largest non-government money manager in the world. Here are some recent comments of his regarding America's proposed economic stimulus plan which is winding its way through Congress as I type this.
The knee jerk reaction among many Republicans and Conservatives in America these days--especially Rush Limbaugh and his legions of know-nothing dittoheads, is that the current Obama stimulus plan is too big and a collossal waste of taxpayer money.
Bill Gross forgets more about finance in a single hour of a single night's sleep than 99.99% of all of Rush Limbaugh 10 million or whatever daily listeners will ever hope to learn about the subject in their entire lives.

I mean, the dude goes on frequent hunting trips with Dick Cheney. Need any additional proof than that to realize the guy's an asshole?
He's probably upset about the current state of the Republican party and the Conservative movement in general in this country.
And I'm pretty sure why he's against photographs being taken in the Supreme Court: they guy is an ugly, shriveled up toad....

The Republican Party is Lost
Can it get any weirder or more pathetic for the GOP these days? Today's news brings us the story of how Joseph Wurzelbacher--better known as Joe The Plumber from the McCain campaign last fall, will be the featured speaker at one of the Republican party's weekly Washington strategy sessions.That is not a joke. This is not an 'Onion' satire piece. That's right, Joe The Plumber--the unlicensed bonehead who could barely string three words together last year, is the head speaker at a Republican party strategy session.
As I type this on February 3, 2009, the national leaders of the Republican party are Sarah Palin, Joe the Plumber, and Rush Limbaugh.
Pathetic.
