Wikileaks Uncover Nothing Not Known

You would think that the Manhattan Project was uncovered given the unbelievable attitude the US has had toward the latest round of leaked secret documents. Who exactly they were secret from is unclear as almost everything leaked has been reported on this blog and numerous others. The Saudis don't like Iran? No, can't be. Except for the fact that sites like DEBKA and Jane's have reported the same info months ago and summarized later here. The State department used spies for diplomatic affairs? That's only the basis for almost every spy movie for the past twenty years. This mock outrage is bull. The real reason they're pissed is their dirty laundry is being exposed for everyone to see and I for one say good. The secrecy of this world has to end with almost total transparency to end the lies. The US deserves some of the blame as the Wikileaks founder contacted the government to ask them which papers contain really sensitive info, stuff that might get someone killed. Our response was "all of it." No further contact was needed was it? Instead of rationally looking at this, the US acted like a petulant child throwing a temper tantrum. And now we are in time out from the rest of the world. To be honest, I am somewhat torn about the whole deal. On one hand, lives could be in real danger and exposing CI's is good for nobody. On the other hand, we the people have a right to all this info you've been keeping from us for no good reason other than you can. A more honest dialogue will help everyone. But instead we get more threats and possible arrests for what I have no idea. Technically, he hasn't broken any laws. But if this goes to the Corporate Kangaroo Court will they overturn the 1971 ruling on the Pentagon Papers? They probably will, ending free speech once and for all in the country. Our Constitution is being dismantled bit by bit. We no longer have a right to anything but the second admendment and thank god for that. The minute they go for our guns is when open revolt will happen.
In a further attempt to gain the people's trust back, every politician should enter into a Pledge With Your Constituents. This pledge will be legally binding and force any politician to follow through with 75% of their campaign promises. They don't all have to pass but he has to have tried in good faith. Any politician not attempting to pass 75% of his promises within a set period of time, which would depend on the office, a recall will be set and that person will be removed from office and never be allowed to run for anything ever again. If we do this we remove all the lies we have to suffer through which seems to be every politician at this point. This will never pass mind you but I do like it. The world is coming to a close I fear and anything we do will be too little too late. Watch the skies.

DOUCHEBAG OF THE WEEK: NORTH KOREA

Another no brainier this week. Let's look at the runner ups.

1)Homeland Security- This week DHS seized at least 75 domain names for copyright infringement. I don't remember them having this ability but low and behold they do apparently. All who were taken down had content or links to content that had copyrighted material. With the new anti-copyright infringement bill sailing through Congress (and who said there was no such thing as bi-partisanship), this may become common place and effectively shut down whole sections of the Internet, including legitimate sites like Drudge Report or Newsmax. The new Gestapo rules again.

2)Mohamed Osman Mohamud- This Somali born teenager, 19, tried to blow up the Portland Christmas tree lighting ceremony. There was never any real threat as the FBI in a rare show of competence had the guy under surveillance all along and the "bomb" he had was inert. When he tried to set off the explosive by his cell phone, the feds arrested him as he shouted "Allah Akbar (God is Great)." I'm reminded of a quote from the movie Spawn. "How come God gets all the good ones and we get all the retards?" If this is the best the Muslim fanatical world can come up with, color me not afraid. To be honest, they haven't had a successful anything anywhere since the Bali massacre or the Mumbai attack. And that was just people shooting randomly at anything that moved. Their bomb making skills lie somewhere between a drunken teen and a retarded monkey. Let's not throw away our freedoms for this bunch. I think we can handle it ourselves.

3)TSA- Inundated with complaints and serious concerns from Congress and the ACLU, the TSA turned off their back scatter machines and performed less pat downs than usual this holiday season. Of course, they declared victory saying no one had opted out and everything ran smoothly. To them the protest fizzled. Only more people traveled by car this year than previous years, 13 percent more in fact. San Diego Airport is Gestapo central right now with a man arrested for striping down to his underwear rather than be searched. New Jersey lawmakers are looking into lawsuits filed against the TSA and anti-fourth amendment laws, all of which are being violated. Benjamin Franklin wrote "those that give up their rights for safety and security will receive neither." We must continue this fight before we are being strip searched for walking down the street. If the douchebag from Portland had seceded would this happen and would people allow it? I fear they would.

4)Obama, Congress and the American People- A close second to North Korea as several bills being looked at right now could make home gardens illegal, end free speech and make flea markets and garage sales a crime. The American people deserve some of the blame for electing these idiots but most has to go to the lying scum that are our electorate. Obama is by and far the worst. His campaign promises weren't worth garbage, making him the second president in a row incapable of telling the truth. Think what you want about Clinton but if you look back on his campaign promises he accomplished most of them. I wanted an FDR instead I got Bush again. His policies are going to help end this great country. And as he is all but certain to lose in the next election, short of a massive war breaking out (hmmmmmmmmm), will we get President Palin?

5)North Korea- With all sorts of scenarios playing out right now, North Korea may have just started WW3. Or maybe not. It's impossible to know at this point as we have zero info on the sheltered country. But it is possible nonetheless that all this could be the beginning of the end. North Korea could miscalculate a future attack and the reprisals could lead to disaster. Worse, our posturing at this point makes us look exceptionally weak. We cannot let North Korea control the dialogue anymore so sitting back and waiting for talks is a sure fire way to lose. Just ask the US before the attack on Pearl Harbor. We talked and talked with the Japanese, all the while they planned their attack against us. Could the North Koreans be doing the same? If Russia, China, Iran, Syria, Lebanon (which is due to fall any day now to pro-Syrian forces), Venezuela, and North Korea all decided to launch simultaneous attacks on US interests, we'd fall within days or the Earth would be a nuclear crisp. Some sort of punishment has to be handed to the North Koreans if for nothing else but for saving face. So congratulations to North Korea you are indeed douchebag of the week.

NORTH KOREA THREATENS WAR. TOO MANY UNKNOWNS FOR PANIC

North Korea has threatened all out war as joint exercises begin to take place between South Korea and the US. I have studied the North Korean conflict for some time and have determined there are too many variables at this point to start sending off warning signals. True, what has occurred already is beyond the normal for the area but unless the North Koreans have a strategy to win, this is just more posturing. This may be especially true as Kim Jong Il's son, Kim Jong Un, may be the de facto ruler right now with his father a figurehead only. His deteriorating health lately has been the source of much speculation and it is this piece that has me worried. Un is an untried and possibly unready leader in control of a nuclear arsenal. This also helps prove my point that war shouldn't be entered into lightly (cough cough Iraq, hack, hack Afghanistan, wheeze, Vietnam) because all you do is prolong the situation, causing many more lives than if you just fought every war as if your survival was at stake. If any of those wars had been fought to its utmost, or if we had taken over the world back in the forties when we had nuclear supremacy, we wouldn't be looking at the possible end of the world scenarios playing out right now. If anyone wants to see how to fight a war look no further than Russia's attack on Georgia. It was quick, brutal and devastating. They didn't occupy the territory. They did things against the idiotic Geneva convention which should be just labeled how to lose a war in ten easy steps. And nobody said a word. Meanwhile, Israel and the US walk on eggshells every time someone does anything lethal to us. I do understand the need to not start a nuclear war. No one wants that. But that's something you should have thought about in the 90's. Now it's too late. Mankind has this ad hoc reasoning that just because something has never happened before, it is impossible for it happen in the future. As I talked with my sister this Thanksgiving, she told me not to worry about the inevitable end of this country as it would never happen. Things always get better, she said. Except they don't. All civilizations end and we stand at the cliff, looking into the abyss. I see no scenario where things will get better and trust me, I'm better than just about anyone on the planet at seeing how a certain action will impact everyone and everything around them. A 181 IQ and the ability to read at the speed of light help. There are too many people with their heads in the sand right now, clearly seen by the nomination or election of the tea party idiots recently. And it is because of this that our end is inevitable. We follow the path of Rome and Nazi Germany and we all know what happened with them. Does anyone really believe that the true followers of either group ever thought things would end? Of course not. But some like myself do understand Yeats: "All things fall apart. The center will not hold." But this flare up with North Korea is not a foregone conclusion either. The North Koreans are well known for using conflict as a bargaining chip. The worry is that if Un is in control and he pushes too hard, a big war could be in the cards. China has done their usual fence sitting position on this and as Iran, China and Russia have stopped pegging their currency to the dollar, their future positions may be more hostile to US interests. There are scenarios where all of this could be a pretense to a war. Any of them could launch a EMP pulse over the continent and black out most of North America. Our missiles would be unaffected by such a thing and we would fire back everything we had at the offending countries, and if the source was unknown we'd hit Iran and North Korea for good measure. Our society is collapsing. The RAND group said two years ago the only war to save us is a big big war. Maybe this is it. Maybe not. More as it becomes available.

North Korea Attacks, World Shrugs

You know we live in a messed up universe when countries like Iraq can do nothing and still get wiped out, while Iran and North Korea thumb their nose at us and we stand by and watch. Yesterday, the most serious attack since the end of the Korean war happened near Inchon when the North Koreans unleashed a barrage of firepower at the South Korean Islands. Two were killed and thirteen injured. South Korea is demanding some sort of retaliation as is Japan. This is the second attack in eight months on our ally and once again this country turned a blind eye. Japan is rumored to be furious with us and South Korea can't be thrilled either. When we failed to take out North Korea in the 90's, thanks to the unholy combination of Clinton's unwillingness to start a massive war and Carter's incompetence with negotiations, we are now stuck with a much worse situation. Yes millions would have died back then but by doing nothing billions may die instead. Awesome trade off douchbags. With Obama looking more and more lame duckish by the second, his second term is an almost certain failure. This of course leads to the possibility of Romney, Huckabee, Gingrich or even, shudder, Palin, as our next President. At this point I don't care. We asked for an FDR and we got Carter. Again. At least if a Republican gets in, this whole fiasco will come tumbling down around them, sending this country into the third world status it so richly deserves. Obama's current poll number at 39% and falling show the public has about had it with his mock-democratic ways and his TSA hijinks. I used to be mad when I saw pictures of Obama with a Hitler mustache. Now, I kind of agree with them. He's all but lost my vote in the next election and it is not even close to election time. Short of him bribing me with some sort of government handout, he's finished. War with North Korea may come form all this but I kind of doubt it. The world is too pussyish to do anything about it and North Korea hardly wants a war they can't win. This is more sabre rattling from a society that is in disarray. No one knows how much power Kim Jung Il has and how much his twenty something son has, now promoted to General of the armed forces. It never should have gotten to this point. The argument as to why shouldn't we let Iran have nuclear weapons is right here for the world to see. Sooner or later, there is going to be nuclear war, sooner at this rate. And because we let countries get them who never should, all of our lives are in danger. More as the story unfolds.

TSA MAY EXPAND INTO TRAINS AND SUBWAYS

With the TSA out of control, we may now be subjected to random pat downs everywhere. TSA fascist douchebag John Pistole has publicly said that he wants searches to expand into other areas of public transportation. The words "it's a privilege not a right" are currently popping up everywhere, now being used to to stop any government dissent. It's also my right to stop you by any means possible, as written in the constitution. Keep this crap up and see. No one is strip searching for me any reason that is not understandable. If I have white powder spilling out of my pants on a sidewalk, you have my permission to search me or anybody else. That is a reasonable suspicion. Me getting on a bus is not. The Brownshirts have taken hold. We cannot let this pass.
A business in California found this out when the woman who owns a store made a 33 cent mistake on her taxes and was fined 140$ dollars for it. One of her employees is hired just to deal with the ridiculous amount of red tape one has to go through to own a business now days. When she tried to fight the fine, she was told that's these stupid regulations and fines were part of the "privilege" of owning a business. We over regulate the small business person and give free reign to the giant conglomerates raping us beyond words. I have seen first hand both. If we cow tow to this we lose. The time to stand up is now. Do not fly if you can. If you do, make them touch and fondle you and sue sue sue as soon as you get home for emotional distress. Make them suffer in their wallets. A few billion later maybe they'll get message that we are not cattle and the fourth amendment is not a privilege, its a right

DOUCHEBAG OF THE WEEK: TSA

For the first time in the history of doing douchebag of the week, we have a two time consecutive winner of the TSA. There can be really no doubt as to why. Let's see who else was in the running

1)The Financial sector has to be included this week for their long con of stealing 15 billion dollars from the American people this week. GM stock went on sale in a "public" offering. I say public sarcastically because no one in the general public saw one dime of that stock opportunity. Only those in the know could get in. The rest of us got nothing, like usual. How long will we allow the scraps they throw us to be enough? Not long I fear as they seem to want to cut our standard of living even further. Check out the government's ideas for saving the economy: taxing the poor, eliminating social security and Medicare, and any kind of aid like food stamps. But tax cuts for the rich have to stay. This keeps up and the guillotine will be the least of their worries.

2)Joe Miller- The Tea Party cry baby is fighting tooth and nail for an election that should never have been that close. Another idiot who wants to eliminate Social security and medicare and give huge tax brakes to corporations. Any fool who voted for this moron should be castrated because that person is too stupid to reproduce.

3)Congress demonstrated that they couldn't care less about the economy or main street as these retards went on break without extending unemployment benefits. When they start to end at the end of this month, millions are going to go bankrupt, along with the millions of people who will lose their jobs when the country comes to a screaming halt. Nothing will happen except that which affects big business like the food modernization act which will put an end to that pesky farmer's market problem we have been having as well as cheap vegetables. This bill guarantees a huge price hike in food. Awesome timing as no one has any money. What do you think will happen when millions of hungry people have no where left to turn. Get the pitchforks and torches ready because it's almost time for a good ole fashioned lynching.

4)Proving fascism is still alive and well, the higher ups have poo pooed any notion of ending their unlawful and humiliating procedures to get on a plane. They say it's a privilege not a right to fly. Doesn't matter as I don't remember that exemption being part of the fourth amendment and without a conditional amendment to support that, anyone groped at the airport has a right to sue. And they will. The final costs for all this are going to be in the billions. And the worst part is it's not helping make us safe. Even worse, bitch Napalitano has said that some Muslim women will be exempt from the security measures. ARE YOU FREAKIN HIGH? Aren't those exactly the people we should be worried about? Haven't there been numerous cases world wide of theses kinds of women blowing themselves up? Only in America. So way to go Napilitano you are the first two time douchebag of the week.

America the Dead

As a sat watching the news last night, I realized I couldn't take it anymore and switched it off. Anyone who doesn't believe we are slouching toward the end days really isn't paying attention.
Republicans proved my point as to the direction of the country by snubbing Obama yesterday because "they were too busy." There they were giving each other high fives and congratulating themselves on the death of the republic. Sickening. With unemployment extensions about to end at the end of the month, millions are going to be destitute. A recent report said that ending the benefits are going to cost this country 80 billion dollars more than if we paid up and 1 million lost jobs. Gee, sure is good that the economy is humming along. Oh wait it isn't.
With fascist bitch Napalitano in charge, our safety and freedom is at real risk. The older generation has taken a who cares attitude toard the new molestations going on at TSA checkpoints. If we started doing it at subways and buses and street corners are they going to be so docile? They might and that has me worried to the direction of this country. We are coming dangerously close to having no rights at all and the morons out there are giving them away freely. At least children under 12 aren't being molested anymore at the airports. But it's still not enough for me to fly. Remember Opt out day on the 24th. It is your duty as am American to stand up to this tyranny that is NOT making us safer. It actually making things worse.
As if that wasn't bad enough, I came across a long con being foisted upon the American people without their knowledge. GM stock went on sale yesterday. But only to rich investors. 15 billion in profit that is only going to go to the richest of the rich. Why? Because they have the means to gobble up any stock before it hits the market. It's like trying to get tickets to a popular concert tour. The reason they sell out in ten minutes is all the people with connections get the best seats first, then leave the leftovers for us common folk. That's what's happening with the stock market. It's all a scam paid for with your tax dollars. Feel safer or freer yet?

TSA: All the Fascism, Twice The Wait

With the new procedures of the TSA going down in flames, I'm happy to see the number of lawsuits and viral videos coming out in such a short period. DA's across the country are exploring presenting charges against any TSA agent found guilty of groping anyone. The DA in San Mateo is already saying he will prosecute. So where does that leave the idiot TSA agent? Do your job and maybe go to jail? Or disobey and get fired? Awesome job Nepalitano. How is it that every time we replace some idiot, like Chertoff for example, we get someone worse? This bitch has gotta go. If you're going to act like a Nazi at least have the decency to wear the swastika. This giant disaster is going to cost us billions in legal fees, money we don't have.
The MSM again has proven why people don't watch anymore and certainly don't believe anything you have to say. Both NBC and CBS did polls that said 80% of the people are okay with the new procedures. While a recent Reueurs and CBS online poll show drastically different results with over 90% protesting the new TSA moves. Considering I have talked to three people who have said they won't fly until the TSA rules are relaxed, makes me think that the online poll is closer to the truth. Or a majority of Americans are so dulled and sheepish that they would accept random strip searches nationwide if they though it would make them safer. Which it wouldn't. Dumb asses like this are gong to get us all enslaved.
The Europeans and Israelis are laughing at us. In Israel, liquids are allowed on planes, shoes don't have to be removed and no terrorist has gotten on a plane in decades. What gives? THEY PROFILE PROFILE PROFILE!!!!. IT WORKS! Christ. Ask any security agent in Ben Gurion Airport and they will tell you, the terrorist will give himself up long before he gets near the checkpoint if you have people trained with what to look at. We are too busy selling snake oil to the masses. Don't forget to Opt out on the 24th. Do not let them touch you or put you through the cancer booth. If they do touch you, get the name of the TSA agent and his supervisor and let them know you will be filing both criminal and civil charges when you get back. I know some DA's who will be happy to help you.

How To Travel By Plane

With the gestapo in full force of our airline security, we as a people have to take steps to discourage these idiots by any means possible. As they are not only against the Constitution of the country which prevents illegal search and seizure, they are also violating federal laws which prevent strip searches except in causes of reasonable suspicion. Getting on a freakin plane is not suspicious in and of itself. Plus as it is now been discovered that the TSA lied about the new strip machines that CAN record images, which they of course have denied, these machines cannot be allowed to stand. Our safety is not being protected and out rights are being violated. This is too far and a majority of us agree. So what should we do. Protest. Loud and hard.
If you have to travel, here are some tips.
1)If you can at all do it, don't travel by plane. Boycott the airplanes until they end this madness. When their stock stares plummet due to low sales, expect those machines and intrusive pat downs to end.
2) If you do have to travel, make as much noise as possible about what you will and won't do. NEVER get in one of those cancer machines unless forced to by gunpoint. Make them search you. When they do here are a couple tips. First, make them do it in public. Not only to force others to watch the humiliation you have to endure but it will be less invasive than in a private room, trust me. Word is, the TSA is now reaching INTO PEOPLE'S PANTS. Should this happen, one of three things should occur. You should scream rape at the top of your lungs and beat the TSA agent to a bloody pulp. As this will certainly get you arrested, this is probably only for the most hard core out there. Two, before they search you, get their name and supervisor and let them know after you get back, you will be getting a lawyer and filing a police report for sexual assault, especially if someone sticks their hands down your pants. Claim the TSA agent penetrated you in some way. Either way sue sue sue. At the very least they have violated your fourth amendment rights. And if the Supreme Court rules differently, you will have proof positive of a police state here in the US and all bets are off at that point. The last way to explain your displeasure is to start moaning loudly in mock pleasure when you are being manhandled. Scream like Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally. See how embarrassing it will be to the TSA agent if that happens every time. November 24th is being called national opt out day. What we want people to do is anyone traveling that day say no to the cancer machines and demand a public search. Just don't forget to moan like a porn star.
If you know anybody out there who is a TSA agent, shun them. They are no better than the Jews who sent their brethren to the ghettos. Cut them out of your life, family or not. I would. No more "I was just following orders" crap. The time to stand up for our rights is here and now. F##k the TSA. Right in the ear.

FASCISM REARS ITS HEAD: AMERICA REVOLTS

With the noose of fascism tightening every day it is refreshing to finally see Americans wake up from their drug induced slumber and protest about laws that have no business being implemented here for any reason. Thousands of people have called their congressperson, the TSA (now nicknamed To Sexually Assult) and the ACLU over the disgusting new "safety" procedures being implemented at our nations airports. A new Reuters poll said that 97% of those polled were furious over the new legal strip search one needs to get on a plane. A majority of those polled also said they will not fly until such measures are eliminated. I for one will also say I will not fly until such measures are taken away. I am not getting groped by some sleezeoid. I have an aversion to be touched in the first place so I can imagine a long stint in prison after I psychically attack the numnuts stupid enough to touch my junk. How is this not illegal under the constitution? Oh wait a minute, it is. It's called the fourth amendment. The worst part about all this is that it has no way of stopping anything. Israeli and European forces have already said the scanners don't protect anybody as they can easily be fooled. Plus, let's look at who was responsible for any of the attempted terrorist attacks in the past few years. In every case, the government had each individual on a watch list and failed to not let them get on a plane. So who responsible here? Me for not wanting my penis size known to everyone in an airport or the idiots who can't do their freakin job. Boycott all air travel until we get some semblance of rights back. America is hopping mad about this and we can't stop now. End the tyranny.
Further degradation to our rights were given by, of all people, Barack Obama when he signed an executive order in January of 2010 that turns this country into a prison state in case of emergency, which is whatever the President decides is an emergency. In case of problems, each part of the country will be divided into ten zones, each governed by an appointed governor, one not elected by the people. Of the ten there shall be five democrats and five republicans, or ten corporate controlled entities. With the emergence of fusion centers that are busy compiling all sorts of info about ourselves, we should be worried. These centers are not subject to government oversight and are ripe for abuse. Each head of each center could be a tin god in his own right, with the ability to rescue or destroy anyone that person liked or didn't like. That's frightening.
On the plus side, Fox news has gotten into some good graces again when Geraldo Rivera publicly stated on his show that the WTC 7 detractors may have a point. On a recent show he had on an engineer and a father of one of the victims, who described, albeit briefly in an eight minute spot, that WTC 7 was brought down by explosives and many an engineer world wide agreed with him on this point. The NIST report in WTC 7 was so deep flawed that it had to be retracted or face legal repercussions, a fact not leveled on the MSM for the most part. But I give Geraldo credit for at least broaching the subject. Kudos.

DOUCHEBAG OF THE WEEK:TSA

Another no brainer this week. Let's see the runner ups.
1)Conspiracy theory sites showed everyone why a lot of them will never be taken seriously by jumping on the idiotic bandwagon of a "missile" that "terrorized" the west and east coasts. And while the NYC was really never in question except for the most rabid idealists, the west coast one was picked up immediately by the Internet as the next big government coverup. Only thing it wasn't anything exciting, dredged up by our increasingly awful 24/7 news cycle. Must have been one hell of a slow news day for this drek. I'll say it one more time for the cheap seats. IT WAS A PLANE! How do I know? I have eyes and a brain. Get over it and focus on things you seem to be missing like focus centers, the council of governors and the continuing erosion of our civil liberties, being continued by Obama, albeit started by Reagan way back when and progressing to this day. Our savior he isn't.
2)Rand Paul- While I'm still unclear if he really did back track on his promise to end earmarks, I still don't like the guy. He's nothing like his father who I still have some respect for. Plus ending earmarks won't save the deficit. Start thinking bigger.
3)The Bipartisan Budget Forecast Group- This week a group of senators from both parities got together and came up with a plan to really screw with the underclass of people's rights. Sure it contained some good ideas like raising the retirement age and cutting the military budget, but it failed to take into account means testing. What this says is that if you make too much money, you don't get any SS or Medicare. The rich don't need these benefits and should be given away to those that need it. Or maybe they don't like the words of Jesus and Buddha and Gandhi and every other peace loving beatnik who ever lived. For a supposed Christian society, we rarely seem to act like one. We need to raise taxes om the richest of the rich. They can afford it. And those claims about jobs being lost if we do that would actually have to be creating jobs for that threat to work. As a former salesman, I can tell you there are no good sales jobs anymore. They all pay squat. As a matter of fact, it the third worst profession to be in now, behind manufacturing and construction. Awesome. Another death blow to the rapidly disappearing middle class.
4)TSA- As cavity searches are the new norm to fly, we have to take our dignity back and say in every loud voice, "NO FREAKIN WAY!" The Constitution does not allow illegal searches and seizures, yet we have to get naked to get on a plane. Worse, it makes no difference to any terrorist who wants to get a bomb on board. Israeli security, who do not use these devices in their airports, say they are practically worthless. Anyone with a knowledge of them can figure out a way around the scanners and bring whatever they like. Lead shields are a good way, especially if they wrap around the body. So we have to get naked to get on a plane or be fondled by child molesters and rapists (no really, they are. Their background check system seems to be asking the applicant if they have ever been convicted of a crime. If they so no, that's as far as it gets. You'd have a harder time getting a job at McDonald's). We have to stop fighting the last war. We also have to stop letting greed make our decisions for us as the body scanners are ever conveniently owned by Michael Chertoff's brother. Nice racket. Now let me get on the damned plane without showing you my penis. Congratulations TSA. You are douchebag of the week.

UFO spotted off California Coast: What was it?

This week, the 24/7 newscasts went ballistic (no pun intended) over a supposed missile launch off the California coast this week. Some said missile, some said airplane and a nutty few insisted aliens were here. Have we become so stupid a nation that we can't see what something is anymore just by looking at it? I'll admit, I'm better qualified than most to identify anamolies due to years of analyzing videos of supposed UFO's taken since the 60's. That combined with an in depth knowledge of video equipment, special effects and photography expertise make me more than qualified to determine what it was. And I'm sorry to disappoint all the conspiracy theorists out there but this video looks nothing like a missile launch. However, it does look a lot like a commercial airplane. We know this because missiles travel much, much faster than your average plane and this isn't traveling at super sonic speeds. So it's either the slowest, most ineffective missile ever invented or it's a plane. You decide. One helicopter pilot claimed to have witnessed the missile for over ten minutes as it soared over the water. In that amount of time, a missile, especially if it was an intercontinental one, would have been halfway around the planet by then. Here is an example of where the MSM is far superior to the Internet blogosphere. Sure, the MSM lies to us on an almost regular basis by not telling us the facts about just about anything like the true unemployment rate (22.5% and climbing meaning we are still mired in Depression era levels), how the super rich are getting away with all sorts of crimes like hit and run and statutory rape, or how bad things are getting for anyone wanting to fly and not getting raped by the TSA. But here, I think they are dead on about the most reasonable answer of a plane being the culprit. Wayne Madsen, a conspiracy theorist who used to work for the NSA and has been right about a few things in his past, has claimed the object was a Chinese missile, being used as saber rattling in a heating currency war, Possible but unlikely because if the Chinese wanted to shock and awe us, a missile with the land speed of a diseased turtle is hardly going to impress anyone. Feeding the furor, another contrail was filmed over NYC but this one was without a doubt a contrail from a plane. Conspiracy theories have come over the net from the most likely to see conspiracies everywhere. A site I quite like Whatreallyhappened has gone the conspiracy way but Mike Rivello has a tendency to do that. Any time anything happens, no matter how trivial, it's a conspiracy. Even if it wasn't. For example, Rivello was quick to jump all over the two idiots who tried to blow up an airport in Scotland, as a possible false flag operation. It wasn't. Same with the undies bomber or the Time Square moron. However, there are real conspiracies out there that we need to watch like the government's real time slide into fascism or 9/11. When everything is a conspiracy we dilute the real problems that are out there with stories about JFK or Martin Luther King's deaths being lumped in with ridiculous theories. Focus on JFK Jr's plane crash for example and suddenly your entering whack job territory. For the record, his plane crashed due to inexperience and dense fog. I know as I lived not far from where his plane took off and it was some of the thickest fog I've ever been in. Unless you believe the fools out there who claim it was a clear, fogless night. The people who weren't there of course or bothered to read a weather report for the night are the ones most easily fooled. And we are becoming a people too easily deceived? The last election cycle would say we are. God help us all if that is true.

America heads towards true dictatorship

We at this point are in a full blown fascist police state. Anyone who travels by plane lately must be seeing that the fourth amendment has been put on permanent hold as we "protect" ourselves from terrorists by allowing strip searches to get on a plane. Opt out of the cancer causing, naked, peep show booths and some dirty old man or woman gets to get more personal with you than your spouse. I don't about you but I don't need a freakin' cavity search to fly to Spokane to visit my grandmother. Until we stop this asinine behavior by always fighting the last war, we will never be safe. Profiling HAS to be implemented in security as demonstrated by EVERYBODY on earth saying it is the only way to really protect ourselves. El Al hasn't had a terrorist attack on a plane in forty years and they don't go through this nonsense. If you're an American citizen with no criminal record, you get to get right on. If your an American with a criminal past or a foreign traveler, expect some delays. If your name is Mohamed Al Shabazz, pack a lunch because your going to be there all day. This is not racist. If blond haired blue eyed Irish people were blowing themselves up, I'd be the first to demand tighter scrutiny for people who look like me and I'll be happy to get in that long, long line to fly. But they aren't, so let's top pretending that we're all the same. We're not and until we understand that, we will all be subject to searches that are not only unconstitutional and illegal but isn't making us any safer in the air. Stop pulling aside five year old and grandparents and focus on the real problems. Hint, it rhymes with Puslims. And if Muslims protests, tough. As I stated before, only one group is trying to kill innocent people aboard planes and it's not Jews, Christians or Hari Krishnas. End the new TSA program before someone gets hurt, which at this rate is inevitable.
As if illegal searches and seizures weren't bad enough, now comes word that the Justice department is looking into allowing the execution of any American citizen without a trial, arrest or reason. All that has to be done is the individual, on the President's order, can be labeled an "enemy of the state," and targeted for assassination. Never mind that this is illegal under current US law that prevents such actions, this will give whoever is President dictator like powers to target any person they don't like. What happens if the current President decides he doesn't like a peaceful group like Greenpeace and signs an order for them to be eliminated? Under this new law, such a thing is possible. This cannot be allowed to pass. If anybody declares war on you, you have a right to defend yourself and that includes against the government. I have always been one to preach peace and non-violence but if this comes to pass all best are off. With the new government sure to fail, we must be wary of any new laws such as this. We are all headed toward a cliff, expect for the richest of the rich. Laws don't apply to them any more. Remember that come 2012.

Banks Are Holding Us Hostage

This should come as no surprise to anyone with a pulse, but the level of bank involvement is becoming staggering. In Colorado, a very rich Morgan Stanley banker was charged with a misdemeanor hit and run even thought the person he hit was very badly injured. The DA said he wouldn't prosecute because "it would hurt his(the banker's) job and pay." He really said that. So if you need look any further that our laws are no longer for everyone, this should be a wake up call. The police and the courts are not here to protect you but to serve the will of their masters. With the rumors of bank holidays still rampant on the web, one should heed this call, even as unsubstantiated as it is. If a bank holiday does occur, you won't be allowed to take out cash for any reason until the holiday is lifted. FDR did such a thing back in thirties to prop up failing banks. Are we due for another? This past weekend ATM's crashed nationwide for a certain period of time, possibly due to daylight savings time, possibly for more nefarious reasons. The date of November 11th has been mentioned as a day to watch for, especially considering the currency war going on after Bernake said the US would be buying 600$ billion in bonds over the next eight months, spooking markets and governments worldwide. With many a financial expert saying that the US is broke, we have to wonder how long this shell game can continue. With Obama's inability to do anything to fix the crisis, other than the typical watered down nonsense that he passed last year which fixed next to nothing. Without the reestablishment of the Glass Stegal Act, harsh regulations on derivative trades (as they did in Germany which seems to be working, and a severe uptick in taxes for both corporations and the rich alike, we are screwed. They keep saying it's not about class warfare, but then they do exactly that at every turn with their "let them cake" attitude. I feel the end may be coming sooner than I'd like. Will we fall into anarchy or will fascism rise. The real question is would you rather want peace or freedom? We can't have both.

DOUCHEBAG OF THE WEEK: LIBERALS

It was another no brainer this week as to the winner, especially after the mid term drubbing they got mainly due to a complete lack of understanding as to how the world works. Conservatives may be an almost equally brainless lot, as seen on the message boards for both sides lately, but at least they stand by their convictions. Liberals run for the hills if anything seems hinkey. Let's see those runner ups.

The Tea Party Nutbags Who Ran For Office- This week 90% of the true idiots who ran for office lost. Only Rand Paul and Mark Rubio made any real headway as Senators elect, with the defeat of Whitman, Fiorina, Angles, Paladino and O'Donnell. While Paladino and O'Donnell had little chance due to their inability to understand that cameras not only record information but that it is later shown on all the news networks and Internet, the rest were closer than they should have been. Fiorina was once voted one of the worst CEO ever in this country, but still convinced people that she would be much better at this job. Yeah right. Thank God for the little rationality we still have left for not voting Angles, a real danger, into the Senate. Let's hope that rationality continues into 2012. I fear it won't as Obama seems to be on autopilot lately.

Republicans- Now that the Tea party is going to be a force to be reckoned with, the GOP has literally gotten into bed with the devil. Speaker to be John Boener publicly said he would never let the Tea Party down. And the countdown to that promise has the shelf life of a tuna sandwich in the sun on a 100 degree day. Boener has talked about cutting salary pay for the Senate and House which would be a good start. But as the Tea party doesn't want to cut SS or the military budget, balancing the budget is impossible. So Boener has promised the Tea Party something that he cannot deliver on. With talk of armed insurrection still on the message boards, we should be very wary as this will never lead to any thing good at this point other than a military crackdown and true fascism which is probably their end game. The Tea Party has handed them the reigns to do such a thing. We can only hope the new GOP will be better than that of the past. And maybe monkeys will fly.

LIBERALS- While I definitely have some left leaning issues such as abortion, gay rights, stem cell research and the environment, my similarities end there. I have never understood why conservatives can be so proud of their background while liberals treat their ideals as something shameful and hidden. This week Keith Olbermann was suspended indefinitely for giving money to democratic candidates in violation of policy at NBC. I hate to break it to you but MSNBC is liberal and should be proud of it if that's what it wants to be. You don't see Fox news doing any such thing. Why? Because despite the "fair and Balanced slogan," we all know they are a GOP propaganda machine for the most part. MSNBC pretends to be non biased which is like calling a black cat white because you don't like the color. NPR has been the in same boat by denying their workers the ability to attend the Jon Stewart rally so as to not appear biased. REALLY? I never knew NPR was liberal. What a minute. I do. Why? I'VE LISTENED TO IT. I hate when people deny what they are (Vegans I'm looking at you). If you want to do something different MSNBC who about reporting the truth instead of the corporate nonsense you fill the air waves with. So congratulations liberals you are indeed douchebags of the week

Inflation Coming: No COLA Raise For SS Recipients

For the second straight year and only the second time in history, no Social Security raises will be given this year. And the Democrats wonder why they lost. Their explanation was that their wasn't any inflation this year. Yeah and if you believe that I've got a bridge to sell you. One of the several horrible things Clinton did was remove energy and food prices from COLA tabulations, which are of course the most volatile of the markets. Once removed inflation seems to magically disappear as does any hope seniors have of making it through the next ten years on SS alone. One idiot actually said that due to gas prices going down in 2008, SS recipients actually got a good deal because they got a raise the previous year when the inflation rate dropped. Except doofus forgot that energy prices aren't included in the SS tab, so the rise was incidental. This combined with the Democrats inability to energize their base resulted in the drubbing they got last Tuesday. The Gay and Lesbian community stayed home as did young people which led to your net loss. Republicans cleaned up because old people, pissed about the second straight year of no COLA raise, voted Republican en masse. Why would they keep you around when you keep screwing them out of money. This administration is almost as tone deaf as the previous one, a true feat if you ask me. With Bernake starting quantative easing, inflation is due and soon. Gas prices rose 20 cents today after the FED announced their plans and is expected to get even higher in the coming weeks. With the rise of the new bagmen coming to Washington (look up your history books if you want to know what that is) a level of greed, bribery and corporate influence is occurring unseen since the end of the 19th century. With foreign money flowing in and no way to know where it is coming from we are in real danger of losing all our freedoms here. Work hard and you will be rewarded with a little bit of the rich people's scraps. Work badly and you will die. We are being railroaded into a new fascist state and the Tea Party is leading the charge. I read a recent article about a guy who lived in Nazi Germany and he says all the signs of what occurred there are happening again. History does repeat itself especially those that don't learn from it. And we in this country, we know nothing.

ELECTION RESULTS: WHAT NOW?

The Elections of 2010 have come to a thankful and merciful end. As predicted, the democrats got a whooping due to their sheer incompetence at pretty much everything. I may hate Republicans but you have to admire their ability to get out the vote and explain things that even the densest member will understand. The final tally of wins/loses will still be days away but it is clear that the GOP picked up at least 60seats and control of the House while the dems hold a slim majority in Congress. One of things that cost them dearly, as I write earlier, was the democrats inability to stand with the gay community. Having looked at various gay sites, I can say their disillusionment with the dems was overwhelming and a majority stayed home from the polls almost certainly causing them to lose many a tight race. Way to stand by your base, idiots. There is some reason to be optimistic as almost every Tea Bagger nutjob lost, decisively in most cases. Thank God there are enough reasonable people out there to send Paldino, Whitman, O'Donnell, McMahon, Fiorina and Angles off to Never Never Land. As I predicted though, the right is already calling vote fraud in Nevada, not understanding why the polls were so wrong. Guess they should have read my column saying the polls were all off nationwide (which they were) due to the changing models of technology such as cell phones over land lines. How the Nevada Tea Party will take this loss is another matter. The possibility of armed conflict is still alarmingly high there and nationwide. I find it ironic yet again that these Tea Parties were nowhere to be seen when Bush possibly stole the Election in 2000 and definitely in 2004. The last election in Massachusetts was possible tampered with (which I discussed in a previous column), sending Scott Brown to the Senate. Did the Tea Party contest that? No of course not because they won. The Tea Party are the worst sore losers ever. So what does all this mean? John Boener, the orange Oompa Loompa, is now Speaker of the House. Things like unemployment will end all extensions soon. 12 million people stand to lose their only lifeline by early next year; 2 million by the end of 2010. What do Republicans think is going to happen when these people can't pay their mortgage or bills? Foreclosures are going to skyrocket next year, devaluing the price of every home in the country. Happy now Tea Baggers? Your house is going to be worth less. Plus, if it gets bad enough, your neighborhoods may start resembling Detroit and whatever job you have may be lost due to the spiraling economic conditions sure to occur now. With the Republicans set on an end spending spree, this country is headed right for another fiscal catastrophe as gridlock becomes the new norm. Expect the stock market to tank some time next year as a new Depression begins. People on food stamps are going to double, as is federal assistance for things like heat and electricity all of which is more expensive than unemployment. We have made a situation far worse due to rank stupidity and an inability to remember history. Dark days are ahead of us. Revolution looms.

Election Tomorrow: Who Will Win?

With the democrats all but certain to lose the House and possibly the Senate tomorrow, most have to wonder as to what happened that got us to this place. Weren't the Republicans all but dead for the last few years? What changed? Not much actually. The democrats decided to squander every bit of good will they got the last four years by siding with big business, big government and the dissolution of the muddle class. As a direct result they find themselves in the exact same position the Republicans found themselves in just two short years ago. They were smart enough to re-brand themselves as the Tea Party, supposedly to look out for the little guy against the crushing weight of an overreaching government. What we really have is another Brownshirt party bent on having corporations run everything, the very definition of fascism. The Tea Party is being led down a road to ruin which I would have more sympathy for had any of them actually opened a book in the past few months. Ominous signs of what is to come are already being implemented in loo of tomorrows whipping that the dems stand to suffer. With unemployment all but dead past the initial six months, those out of work are going to pay dearly at the polls this year. By the end of this month, 3 million people will be added to the ranks of those no longer able to receive a paycheck. The 99ers as they are called will soon be unable to pay rent, a mortgage or bills. What consequence do you think that will have on society? Plus, as the number of weeks are going to be drastically reduced due to the new Congress make up, these numbers are going to be staggering high by next Spring. So what is government doing about it? Illinois is adding armed guards to 36 unemployment offices state wide. This will probably be the national norm as people are going to lose it when they can't pay for anything anymore. Get ready for European style rioting and possibly Tea Party payback for people uber-angry at those that caused them to lose any life support they were getting. This will in turn collapse the economy as even more foreclosures are going to occur and less money will be pumped into the system. Jobs will be lost and, most likely, Obama will get the blame. With gridlock a foregone conclusion, the only hope we have now is that Republicans will see that the country is suffering and reach a hand a cross the aisle to Democrats to help stabilize things. That will probably happen when pigs fly but hey, you have to have some optimism in these dark times. If the Tea party takes over the GOP, much like the Christian Conservatives did in the eighties, we will be witnessing a real takeover by big business into politics. And anybody with a history book should remember the last time this scenario played out, Hitler was elected, a possibility for a charismatic Tea party candidate in the upcoming presidential contest. While no one stands out right now, a dark horse could emerge soon (like Obama did for the democrats) and play right into the hands of those that hate our current leader. He has made his mistakes but he has been far better than W, the man that got us into this mess; a mess that most seem to have forgotten about. I truly fear that Muslims in this country might be the new Jews of the Fifth Reich. Sure Muslims have been their own worst PR people, but they are not all fantastical losers either. I know quite a few that are far from the bomb throwing, Koran reading zealots the media makes them all out to be. But much like the Jews were the scapegoats for Hitler, I believe some future politicians (and current from some of the political ads I've seen) will use religion and race to shine a bright spotlight on them. This cannot be done. Religious freedom is the bedrock of this country as is the separation of church and state, regardless of what Christine O'Donnell thinks. We must protect our Muslim friends from any such atrocities. That is the American way. I just wish more people were behaving like this and not replicating an ugly blot on mankind's past. Fear the Tea Party, especially if your Hispanic or Muslim. The repercussions are going to be extreme.
