GUN CONTROL AND WHY BERNIE SANDERS MAY BE THE ONLY DEMOCRAT TO BRIDGE GAP BETWEEN NRA AND ANTI-GUN PEOPLE!

Much has been said over the last 24 hours since the democratic debate ended. In true Orwellian fashion, the major media has all declared Hillary the big winner, even some portions of Fox News. This flies in the face of reason as every poll, focus group and internet monitoring strongly suggest Bernie actually won, which he did. I know this because the comment sections, Internet traffic and three separate focus groups all said they liked Bernie WAY more.

Leave it to CNN to try to change that attitude. Not only did their pundits claim Hillary won, against the backdrop of their Facebook poll which said the opposite, they quickly got rid of said poll as well as scrubbing Internet comments of pro-Bernie statements. That is so telling. We now live in a society where our free speech is being taken away from us so that the pro-corporate stooge can compete against another pro-corporate loser, effectively giving us no choice at all. Why do you think hey keep going after Trump?

What most people do not realize is that Time Warner, CNN's owner, is a huge Hillary supporter, fifth in money for her campaign. No conflict there, right? This week, CNN got caught trying to use a Bush plant to embarrass Trump at a rally, pretending she was some liberal worried about abortion rights, when anyone with a computer could see she works as a paid staffer for Kelly Ayotte and Jeb Bush. CNN is the most awful news organization out there as they pretend to be non-partisan. At least with Fox News you know what their agenda is. As the next debate will have Wolf Blitzer as the moderators you know it is going suck hard. At least Anderson Cooper did a decent job.

But even with all this pro-Hillary bias, she still is going to have to get by her awful comments on legal pot, the NSA spying program and her wishy washy Wall St reforms that will never happen once she gets into office. She WILL continue the Bush/Obama economic polices that have changed little in decades, a fact that this country is rapidly getting sick of. I have a feeling that if the TPP passes and people see what is actually in it, especially if their jobs start disappearing, a violent revolution will follow. We can avoid that by voting in Bernie Sanders and other like minded individuals rather than corporatism from both sides of the aisle.

The biggest sticking point was guns in which Sanders was taking to task for reasonable gun law ideas while the rest want guns gone tomorrow. This is a third rail topic that should Hillary be against some real loser like Fiorina, could lead to her defeat and the prospect of a truly dangerous individual as President. The wrong person this time could make George Bush look like a Rhodes Scholar in comparison and literally end the world. The truth about guns needs to come out for a government hell bent on demonizing them, most likely for devious purposes.

Hillary said 90 people a day die from gun violence. What she didn't tell you was this statistic is skewered like climate change stats are. Depending on the source, that number may actually be closer to 30 per day with 2/3's of that from suicides and another 1/4 from drug related violence. That means, per day, minus these plus accidental shootings, the grand total nationwide could be as low as 1-3 per day. Still higher than a lot of countries mind you but not the gun apocalypse either. It is also telling that most of the people shot are black suggesting inner city poverty and drug problems are the root of the problem and not gun laws.
 
This 90 number and facts were taken from the Brady Campaign to get rid of guns. They suggest 30 deaths per day, 55 suicides and 46 accidental shootings, which in actuality is still higher than what Hillary said and just as misleading. FBI stats, a more accurate look at gun violence, has a far lower number but even that number has some issues including active shooter data, even if no active shooter actually existed. It would be like including robberies where nothing was actually stolen.

Let's look at some other "facts" from the Brady group. It states one in three people know someone who has been shot. There is no way that true. I have dozens of friends who own guns and recently asked them to ask everyone they know across the country if this is true. Hundreds of responses later, I came up with two people who know someone who had been shot and both live in inner city areas. Everyone else responded no. Therefore this stat is misleading and again seems to rightfully suggest that 99% of gun violence is from black, poor communities. This does not suggest or infer black inferiority or anything like that, but that these communities have big problems that are being ignored both by the government and the people who live there. Some states like Wyoming for example has one of the highest gun death rates in the country but a homicide rate of zero, meaning few if any gun related deaths outside of accidental or suicide. Gun deaths have also steadily declined since the 90's, although inner city violence has spiked upward since 2011, but only inner city areas.

Now one thing we can see is that the least regulated gun areas have the highest death rates. Too many people who shouldn't have a gun are getting one and that needs to stop. I am all for the second amendment, but not everyone should own a gun and stop gaps, like those that Bernie Sanders has proposed are reasonable and easily enacted.

In Israel right now, gun laws are being repealed to allow open carry for their citizens after Palestinian douchebags have decided that stabbing innocent people is the way to get their point across. Even the most liberal idiot has said this is never going to work. I have news for the Palestianian people how to get the peace they want and it's real easy. First, renounce violence and recognize Israel. Give up the right to return in exchange for land and watch your fortunes soar. But because you guys dissed all over the best deal you were going to get back in 1999, even this may not be possible as the Israeli people have decided they want you dead and with good reason. If Mexicans were stabbing people wily nilly here, how do you think this psycho country would react? Worse than Israel I can tell you.

Recently a 13 year old was run over by a car in the West Bank after stabbing another teen and liberals went nuts as he was refused treatment, spit on and called names, before he died. I would have pissed on him himself, having zero sympathy for this douchebag. Now, everyone wants a gun, meaning dead Palestinians are going to happen with greater frequency and they have only themselves to blame. Yes, the Israelis are behaving badly with settlements being built in contested areas, but they seem to have no partner for peace right now either. Peace is possible if anyone wants it, which no one does.

Hillary's gun grab ideas may play to some in the base but may sink her in the general election as well, just like Planned Parenthood shutdowns may destroy the Republicans. Vote Bernie Sanders in the primaries, especially young people who need to show up in droves to make this happen. That does not fill me with confidence for an election that already seems predetermined.

THE DEMOCRATIC DEBATE WINNERS AND LOSERS. MSM FAILS AGAIN!

If you read the columns in most major publications, Hillary was the clear winner. If you watched the debate however, you realize that Bernie walked away with it. Below is a condensed version of everything that happened.

Hillary- I want to be President.

Bernie- I want to save America.

O'Malley- Aren't we behaving civilly?

Webb- I once killed a man with a spoon.

Chaffee- Has anyone seen my barbershop quarter?

Hillary- I am against everything I was once for or vice versa and will most likely flip flop back once I become your God, I mean leader.

Bernie- Wall Street is sucking this country dry.

O'Malley- Baltimore is better than it was once right?

Webb- Elect me President and I destroy our enemies, our friends and probably everyone else.

Chaffee- When I vote, I have no idea what I am doing.

Hillary- It's my turn already to be President. Come on guys, this country really needs a woman president and by that I mean me.

Bernie- I will legalize weed, tax the rich, protect gun rights and do other common sense things.

Webb- This is the Republican debate right?

O'Malley- I am just glad I am not Webb or Chaffee.

Chaffee- Can I get a ride home? My car is in the shop.

That was in essence the entire debate. I will give it to Anderson Cooper for finally being the grown-up in the room and conducting an actual debate. That makes this the first debate in decades that actually accomplished this. And while some people bitched and moaned about the fact that Sanders took no pot shots as Hillary, he made his case without stooping to Republican whining and complaining that made the Republican debates interesting and factually void.

The clear winner was Bernie Sanders whose numbers I expect to see grow, particularly among young voters who, God help us all, are the only hope we have for 2016. If they show to vote, Bernie wins and maybe re-capture the House and Senate. As House Republicans still have plenty of time to shoot themselves in the foot with a government shutdown looming again and soon, this could have major repercussions for them in the next election. It should have last time but the Democrats gave up before even running and ran campaigns designed to lose. Debbie Wasserman-Shultz is an embarrassment to the DNC and should have been fired for her disastrous leadership which led to their crushing defeat in 2014.

Hillary lost a lot of voters, echoed on comment sections, focus groups and young people when she came out against legal weed, keeping the Patriot Act, waffling on Wall Street reforms and her terrible answer on the Keystone Pipeline which was basically John Kerry-ish in saying she had no opinion on it until she did. This did not go over well with many and may cost her a lot down the road.

Many are going after Sanders on his pro-gun stance, somehow unaware that this a subject that will not play out well with anyone who is not way to the left on the subject. It cost Al Gore the election. It could cost Hillary the same.

Over twenty polls had Bernie as the clear winner. Most of the MSM proclaimed Hillary the clear winner. Yeah, no conflict of interest there. The MSM has been pushing for Hillary and Bush since day one, a match-up only they seem to want. Stop shilling guys. We're not that stupid.

Webb and Chaffee are all done. Webb did well with right wingers and Chaffee did well with no one. Webb seemed to lose his mind about China at one point even though the questions was about Syria and Chaffee fumbled hard when he said he voted to end Glass Steagal because he had no idea what was going on. These were very bad answers. These two need to quit stat.

O'Malley did okay, although he is unlikely to see much growth from this. Bernie should see his poll numbers grow and Hillary may falter a little, regardless of how the MSM media spins it. The biggest loser by far was Joe Biden who is all done now. By not being on the stage he has marginalized himself, most likely right out of contention. There is not going to be a lot of wiggle room between the two contenders Hillary and Bernie at this point and even less money to grab. His chances are over it would seem baring some miracle of God, like Hillary being indicted for something and lighting striking Bernie. Like O'Malley, he waited too long and now has little chance to win.

The big winners last night were the American people who may have seen a somewhat dull debate, but one filled with actual issues, real solutions and people who would be better Presidents than 99% of the Republican party. We will have to see how this all shakes up but I expect Sanders numbers to rise to become a real threat to Hillary. The media can tell us how wonderful she is all they want. Bernie is the real thing. Vote Sanders in 2015. It is your only choice.

JEB BUSH, PLAYBOY, JOE BIDEN AND OTHER MOMENTS IN AMERICAN STUPIDITY!

I swear we are getting dumber and dumber. This week has been no exception with Jeb getting caught red handed with a plant, Playboy deciding they no longer want a magazine and Joe Biden pissing us all off with his "will he or won't he" decision making that is making those of us who write about politics mental. Is common sense dead because it certainly looks that way?

Let's start with Playboy who have announced they will no longer have fully naked women in their magazine. Yeah, that will increase circulation. They are doing this to increase distribution as more people will now carry it. However, from reading the comments about this on the Internet, the actually response seems to be "Blow me!" Many people are not happy with this, especially as the magazine has been on a downward slide for some time now. I have been getting the magazine for some time and have noticed that like Maxim, which I also got rid of last year, the quality of both the women in the pictures and the stories that are being written are not that great. I get better info and hotter women off the Internet so why bother with a dying rag. I, like many, will not be renewing my subscription when it comes up for renewal next year. This may be the death knell of a once groundbreaking magazine.

Tonight's debate, which I will write about in great detail tomorrow, will be missing Joe Biden as he can't seem to commit one way or another. Now word comes that he may wait until late November to announce. That's great, if you want lose badly. To be honest, it is already probably too late to mount much of a campaign, as the amount of money he will need to raise will be piddly compared to that of Sanders and Hillary. This is horrific news for the democrats who seem to want to lose by nominating Hillary, a candidate that may not be able to win a general election. Her persona is toxic and way too many people see her accurately as a flip flopping corporatist who will continue the same policies that every President since 1980 has championed. Obama told us one thing and did another the minute he got into office. Who honestly thinks Hillary will be any different? I can tell you this, if Trump becomes the nominee, and Hillary is gets the other nod, I am not voting for her. However, just about any other match-up will force me to vote for that demon even if I am unsure anyone else will follow my lead. A recent Fox news poll ( I know to take that with a grain of salt) said she loses versus just about any Republican front runner. I find it impossible that Fiorina would win but considering how dumb this world has become, I also can't rule it out. That witch is still the worst person running ever. If we get Hillary versus Fiorina, I may have to leave the country and perhaps the planet.

Jeb Bush got caught red handed using a plant against Trump at a recent rally. Lauren Bachelder recently asked Trump about his stance on abortion and women's pay. He responded that he believes women should get paid the same as men and he is pro-life. CNN immediately ran with this story, forgetting that as a "news" orginization, maybe they should have looked deeper into Bachelder's background instead of instantly going off about a war on women.

Turns out Bachelder is no liberal wallflower, but a paid staffer of Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) and works on Jeb Bush's campaign for President. Dumbass tried to scrub her Internet profile, not knowing that nothing can be gotten rid of on the Internet. It's like herpes, once you have it, you have it forever. So all that crap about her body and equal pay was nothing more than a sham that CNN got snagged promoting falsely. Considering tonight's debate is on CNN and Anderson Cooper is a Hillary shill, I expect more of the same. I remember how Fox tried to get rid of Trump and ask softball questions to the rest, with less than stellar results. CNN better remember we are all not stupid. Just most of us I guess.

Meanwhile, Republicans have no replacement for John Boehner, as the idiot Freedom Caucus wants  a shift of power to deregulate the Speaker position, giving the minority even more power. Just what we need is a Parliamentary system where a renegade few can throw wrenches into everything. That will solve everything, said no one. Paul Ryan hasn't even said anything close to a yes and he is already being thrown under the bus. This job is a loser for anyone who wants to see their career end. If Republicans cannot decide among themselves, what hope do they have to fix this country?

Lastly, we found out that the Malaysian aircraft shot down over Ukraine was shot indeed shot down by a Russian missile in rebel controlled territory, effectively negating the nonsense conspiracy theories about the Ukrainians shooting it down to frame the rebels. There are way too many idiot conspiracies, like Sandy Hook didn't happen, we never went to the moon or 9/11 used holograms. We are becoming dumber and dumber and the fact that Hillary still leads the democrats or that Fiorina and Carson are still near the top of the pact prove this axiom. God help us if the American people don't wise up stat.

DOUCHEBAG OF THE WEEK: THE GOVERNMENT!

It was announced today that Social Security recipients will get NO increase in benefits because fuel prices are so low. Funny how that didn't factor in in 2010 or 2011 when gas prices skyrocketed, or the fact that food, education and medical care have all exploded upward this year. But I'll bet Congress gets a fucking raise. On top of that, we have forty members of Congress holding the country hostage and attempting to thwart democracy in return for a Parliamentary system and eventually anarchy. Worst of all, voters are still looking at Carson and Fiorina and thinking they are suitable for the job of President. Ugh! Let's see those runner ups.

10)Luke Gatti- This douchebag epitomizes everything I hate about millennials. Seems this drunk asshole at UCONN brought an open container of booze into the dining area and then had a fit when they wouldn't serve him jalapeno bacon mac and cheese. Cops were called when he pushed the manager and called him "a fucking faggot." This is the same asshole who was booted from the University of MA for similiar behavoir, one involving him calling a campus police officer the N word and another for assault on another police officer. This is a true waste of space who in his own words as he was being dragged away "is completely fucked."

9)Rupert Murdock- Speaking of useless assholes, the far right owner of Fox News, among other propaganda machines like the WSJ (I still haven't forgotten about your hit piece on Bernie Sanders Motherfucker!), stepped in it this week when he talked about Ben Carson being "a real black President," as if Obama not being black enough is why the Republicans hate him. First off, Ben Carson had a very bad week (see below for more on that). And two, this guy is NOT going to get black people to vote for him regardless of color. This is why Fox News is awful.

8)Ben Carson- Who thinks this guy is ready for any form of government let alone President of the free world? This week he put his foot in his mouth so many times his tongue got athlete's foot. He made dumb statements about the Oregon shooter, getting held up at Popeye's, which may or may not have happened, and then didn't know what the debt ceiling was. This guy is NOT qualified to be president, like most of the people running. Yet, many, many people seem enthralled with the idea of a total loon running a country with nuclear weapons. Considering there are rumors today that a Russian jet was shot down over Turkey, WW3 may be closer than we think. Imagine that with this idiot in office.

7)Pan- Can Hollywood stop making fucking prequels already? God, we hate remakes and prequels, which go on to make no money, and yet, they keep making them. Why? Who keeps okaying films that will never make a profit. The latest travesty is Pan, a prequel that was a $150 million monstrosity and has little hope to make that money back, even with overseas profits. Add to that with yet another tone deaf casting of Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily which is an ethnic character in the book. Scar-Jo is getting heat for being cast as the lead in Ghost in the Shell, regardless of the fact that the character is Japanese. They do know that Asian audiences are the biggest market on Earth now right? Apparently not. Pan also decided that chorus versions of "Smells like Teen Spirit," would rock the world. It didn't, just like "A Knight Tale" did the same crappy thing. Can we please start casting Asian actors in roles where Asians should be, especially as they will increase market sales outside of North America? Ask Cameron Crowe how that worked out for him on Aloha.

6)Trent Franks- This giant asshole, a Congressman from the 2nd district in Arizona, has long been against abortion for any reason. Now this dick wants to explore the "benefits and positive impact" of rape. He really said that. So I take it on America to give this guy his wish. Someone, somehow must rape Franks so he can first hand tell us the positive effects of rape. You can't preach about something like this without first hand experience so I am hoping someone with AIDS will show him the error of his ways and let him wax poetic about how he has fond memories about being gang raped by the pale moonlight and now has to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to Big Pharma for life saving pills. Something tells me, he might change his mind afterward.

5)Carly Fiorina- This week we found out she has served on a board that gave money to Planned Parenthood and paid herself rather than her staff during her last failed attempt at Congress. Easily, the worst person running for President, anyone standing behind her is a true moron and should be told so at any given opportunity. I beg America to take a stand against this waste of space and any idiot stupid enough to be behind her. End her political career today. Please!

4)Urban Outfitters- It came out this week that a company worth $80 billion, now wants it's employees to work FOR FREE rather than get paid overtime. The owner is one of the richest people in the country and this is why. We have returned to the days of robber barons who paid little to nothing for workers, telling them they should be happy to be working at all. Sound familiar? Boycott this company, quit if you work there and put this place out of business. America better start standing up for itself because we are getting run over something fierce.

3)Kevin McCarthy- After an epic gaffe confirming what we all knew that the Benghazi probes were political rather than fact finding, it ended his chances at becoming Speaker of the House. This has left the House in shambles as there is no clear successor. The two running, Chaffetz and Webster, have zero chance of winning and the only guy left who might get it, Paul Ryan, has repeatedly said he doesn't want it. This has led to the possibility of caretakers instead and the names being floated around like Romney and Gingrich made me want to vomit. With debt ceiling and budget negotiations coming soon, the collapse of the government is becoming all too real and some seem to want it. The so called Freedom Caucus is killing this country. If SS and food stamps stop, that may reverse itself and the Freedom Caucus may be running for their lives when an angry mob comes for them.

2)Hillary Clinton- Some are wondering why Hillary has dropped ten points over the last few weeks. Her flip flopping on just about everything shows her to be more interested in telling is what we want to hear rather than any core beliefs. We got that with Obama and many of us are unwilling to continue the status quo for a minute longer. Thus the rise of Sanders who has been amazingly consistent over the decades he has been in office. This week, Hillary did the ultimate flip flop on the TPP, something she was instrumental in passing while she was Secretary of State. But now as the public overwhelmingly hates it on both sides of the aisle, she has come against it. Wow, sure wish she had thought of that when she could have done something about it. I fucking HATE this woman and shit like this makes me want to spit nails at her. If it comes down to her and Trump, I am voting for the orange haired nutjob. At least he is actually against the TPP, a fascist takeover of the world, and she will pivot back for it once in office. Anyone supporting this idiot is as bad as Fiorina supporters.

1)The Government- We have the worst political system on Earth and some of the worst politicians on the planet. The BLS said this week that SS recipients will get no raise this week because of low inflation, especially fuel prices which have stayed low due to a global slowdown on the economy. Nevermind the fact that fuel isn't usually added in, like the price of food, but hey let's let the disabled and old starve so we can we give tax cuts to rich assholes. We should be storming the Capital right now and tarring and feathering anyone we can get a hold of. How come the rest of the world is fighting back and we sit and take it? The French attacked employers talking about layoffs. The Germans had 50,000 people show up to protest the TPP. Protests for that shit legislation have been so bad in England and France that they may not ratify it all. Meanwhile, we blow up hospitals that we knew were hospitals while Russia shows us how wars are supposed to be fought. Our media keeps telling us Russia is bombing pro-American rebels while at the same time telling us only 5 actually exist. Not groups but individuals. Those are some hardy rebels. Republicans continue to look at Benghazi, even though we have spent more time on that than 9/11, Watergate and the Kennedy Assassination combined. Our government is lost and we have only ourselves to blame by voting in fools and retards, many who want anarchy and NO government. The time for revolution is now people. So get off your lazy asses and DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE! This crap cannot stand and the longer we grin and bear it, the worse it is going to get. Stop voting for people who are going to literally kill you once they get into office. Read a fucking book or newspaper that isn't an echo chamber. Protest correctly, which means go after the people that matter and not blocking traffic or pissing off the general public. In short, if we don't stop what is going on, America as you know it is over. This will be the last election that matters. Make it count. So congratulations US Government you are indeed douchebag of the week. And a big Fuck OFF to all who made it happen that way.

KEVIN MCCARTHY WITHDRAWS, HILLARY FLIP FLOPS AND THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE CONTINUES TO STAY WEIRD!

This is the most fucked up election campaign I have ever seen. Trump continues to dominate in the latest polls, which in any other time would have been beyond odd, his opponents keep shooting at themselves with wild abandon and no one seems to notice that 99% of the people in Congress and running for President seem to be mentally challenged. What the hell is going on?
 
Fresh of his epic gaffe, Kevin McCarthy withdrew his name from contention for the Speaker position, leaving the post wide open. This leaves no clear front runner, not to mention few who will have the clout to get 218 votes. Sorry Jason Chaffetz but that means you get to sit your idiot ass back down. No way does he get the necessary votes nor does Daniel Webster, another long shot, unless the devil somehow gets involved and by that I mean Dick Cheney.

On top of this uncertainty, the debt ceiling looms again as, like the budget, we get short term fixes and kick the can down the road mentality. After November 5th, we will default on our loans and will run out of money to pay Social Security, our troops and all Federal workers. This will affect over half of the country, during an election cycle, for which the Republicans will be blamed, perhaps violently at. Then on Dec 11th, the budget talks happen again, which this time may result in a government shutdown (perhaps either from a continuing crisis from the November 5th fiasco in waiting or from a second shutdown entirely) and the cessation of food stamps right near the holidays, as well as those same people from above not getting paid.

So how do our Republican candidates feel about this? Some like Ted Cruz are all for this, blissfully unaware that his life may rest in the balance if an angry mob decides to go after him like the French did with their executives talking about layoffs. Imagine how mad people who can't afford food are going to be. This is a riot waiting to happen and how revolutions start. They are playing with fire, almost literally.
 
Ben Carson said he would not sign a budget that wasn't balanced, somehow unaware, like most Republicans, that the debt ceiling is to pay for debt already incurred, mostly from Bush era tax cuts and an unpaid for war. But to them it that danged Obama's fault, which it really wasn't. There are a lot of things I do NOT like about Obama lately, like the fascist TPP takeover, but the reason we are so far in debt has everything to do with crap economic policies the Republicans keep doing and failing at. Every single time they block any meaningful legislation, as they just did to another good jobs program just this week. The GOP is corporate greed personified and some of you idiots out there need to see that. Not that most democrats are much better mind you.

Take Hillary this week. After considerable thought and research, and in no way indicative of the polls of Bernie Sanders, Clinton reversed herself this week and came out against the TPP. Boy, just like her fucking husband who once said pot should be legal, it's too bad she was never in a position of power to do anything about it, which she of course was, and helped steer this crap bill forward 45 times. But now the polls say people HATE the TPP on both sides of the aisle (which is why Trump has been smart in opposing it), so Captain Flip-Floppy strikes again just like her position on gay marriage and the Keystone Pipeline. This is the exact reason I loathe this woman. She has no real positions on anything other than what the polls tell her to think. And if she gets into office, I expect her to be just like Obama and watch those campaign promise based on smoke and fog wisp away. It doesn't help the Biden is also a TPP supporter, which is hardly a surprise. Bernie, however, has always been against this for solid reasons which is why for the democrats he is the only choice we should be making for our next President. At least he preaches the same dogma for decades, has ideas that could actually work and isn't either a corporate monster or a soulless politician.

AS TPP LOOMS, THOSE THAT OPPOSE IT FACE AN UNCERTAIN FUTURE!

The TPP is the single most dangerous piece of legislation to happen here in the US ever. It is worse than Vietnam, worse than the Iraq fiasco, worse than 9/11, even worse than the economic crash of 2008. It will destroy this country and make us all subjects to our new corporate overlords who will control us completely, something a lot of Americans won't say boo to because they will be too busy staring at their new smart phone, which will also be spying on them.

For those unfamiliar with this treaty it gives sovereign power over nation states by corporations, something they have been fighting for since the 1800's. When they couldn't do it by force, they gradually took over the government until they controlled it to do as they wish. Citizen's United gave them that ability and now they stand to use it with the acquiesce of our traitorous Congress and President. If this does pass, and chances are pretty good it will, Obama will go down as the worst president in American history. Anyone who can out awful Bush is a serious dick as this treaty will eliminate the US as a free country and establish a corporate shadow government that will write our bills, elect our politicians and enslave us completely. This is not some weird conspiracy theory but fact as the terms of this bill leaked out so far say our food will be less safe, our water less clean, our jobs less plentiful and medicine even more expensive. Who wants any of that, regardless of party?

There is a lot of reason to fear our guns taken away from us for exactly this reason. The TPP, or NAFTA on steroids as it has been described, is the final nail in the coffin of freedom and it is a worldwide push to set a fascist agenda for many of us, which is exactly what the TPP will usher in. It is not implausible, although highly unlikely, that some of these shootings lately may be staged, in that the guy who did it was somehow programmed to do it. Mind you I do not believe that for one second but it is also not out of the realm of possibility, no matter how remote, thus me bringing up for the sake of argument.

This push for globalism will result in even more jobs being lost, wages plummeting even further here and automation reducing the workforce by as much as 50% over the next ten years.  Even now, foreign workers are outnumbering native born ones by as much as three to one because they will work harder for less money, causing salaries in high tech skills to drop precariously. With the TPP, work visas will be even easier to get, meaning even less jobs for Americans. How does that benefit anyone but the top 1%?

There are two candidates who oppose the TPP: Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, which are not surprisingly the two most marginalized candidates out there. Carly Fiorina, the worst politician in the history of this country, is in 2nd in some polls. WTF America? Hillary is still doing better than Sanders and she has waffled on what she thinks of the TPP, as she helped get it passed as Secretary of State. Why is anyone voting for anyone who thinks the TPP is a good idea as both Fiorina and Clinton do?

Sanders, as a democratic socialist, has that anchor tied to him by a capricious media and an idiot public too stupid to open a book. Trump, on the other hand, is still ahead. So how to deal with him? Killing him appears to be their answer, and that is not meant any other way than literal. It came out today that escaped drug lord, El Chapo, has put a $100 million bounty on his head for his racist attitudes toward Mexicans. This is a serious concern as this guy has the network to possibility make this happen. What happens if Trump does get assassinated by some chump working for the drug lord? How does that affect all of us? And is it because of his stance on the TPP? Could the powers that be be looking for anyway to stop this guy before he gets into office where they will have zero control over him?

The TPP is beyond dangerous and a rare few are making any waves about it. Expect to hear more about this at the next few debates, something both Trump, Sanders, and even Rand Paul could use as a cudgel against their opponents who support it. Next Tuesday could be interesting.

CARLY FIORINA, THE TPP, THE OREGON SHOOTER AND OTHER THINGS THAT NEVER CHANGE!

Let's do the Time Warp again people because we seem to be caught in a causality loop where we repeat the same crap over and over. The TPP is back somehow, someway, even though a majority of people planet wide don't like it. We had another shooting where gun control and mental illness are both being talked about with nether side having any solutions in the process. And our idiot politicians keep doing the stupidest things imaginable while we as a people do nothing. Meanwhile in France, a group of executives were forced to flee with their clothes in tatters as an angry mob swarmed them after layoffs were announced. This is something we should be doing here but aren't because we are a lazy, stupid country hell bent on our destruction.

Don't believe me? Carly Fiorina is only five points behind Trump in NH. Now while the rest of the country isn't as enthralled with her as the Granite State is, she is still way higher than logic or reason would suggest. Anything over zero is a slap in the face to the rest of us. She is, without a doubt, the worst person running for president, perhaps ever. The fact that her name is coming up as a VP slot should have you running for the democrats because that woman is beyond dangerous and the fact that some can't see that says a lot about why this country is falling apart.

Her past is a checkered flag of deceit, mismanagement and psychopathic behavior. She was one of the worst CEO's in history, and the facts support that no matter how forcefully she tries to tell a different story. If people would stop believing everything they hear and actually look it up for themselves on a site that isn't an echo chamber, they would see what a fraud this woman is. Few who worked for her had anything good to say about her, especially her inability to work with others, a trait that is beyond important for a President. If you are still on this woman's side, please do us all a favor and kill yourself. Don't worry if you don't, this type of mental state usually takes care of it for us, like trying to kill a spider with a lighter while filling up your car. The only missing from that video was a Fiorina bumper sticker. This woman cannot be in a position of power and her past tells us that. Why are so many out there this enthralled with this terrible human? If you think Trump is bad, remember this, he has a run a successful business and amassed a fortune with good business sense. Fiorina got her fortune by golden parachutes after raping the corpses of the companies she left behind. Which sounds like a better leader?

Then there is the TPP which is nearing a done deal on the international circuit. It will return to a Congress that cannot debate, add, subtract or filibuster any of it. Awesome. The only good news is let's see how the Republicans handle this. Do they give Obama a big win and the democrats, both for or against, fuel for the primaries? Or do they stop it if no other reason than sheer pettiness? I know which one my money is on.

The TPP is a monstrosity of epic proportions. We already do NOT live in a democracy any more. The current Presidential race should tell you that as the reason for outsiders doing so well is that trust in our politicians from both sides of the aisle are failing us. Republicans have picked up on this faster then the Democrats, which is odd, as Hillary's polls are still way too high considering the ramifications of her winning, which would mean more of the status quo. A recent interview with people down south from both sides flocking to Sanders had people ask what they thought of Obama. One guy had the best response in three words: He screwed us. If this TPP passes, he will not only have screwed us, he will have finished what over fifty years of bad policies have led up to: the end of this nation as we know it.

The TPP is the culmination of a fascist plot that has gone on for a very long time, stretching back to the robber barons and leading to the attempted takeover of the US in the 1930's by industrialists. Funny how that was never taught in school. When they realized they couldn't do it by force, they just slowly took away more and more liberties while gaining more and more power over the government to we have what we have now which is almost complete control by big business. The TPP gives corporations sovereignty over nation states. They will be more powerful than any nation on Earth with the power to decimate not by war but by economics. They will hold power over us all and it is only a matter of time before the flex that power to subjugate all of us. I cannot begin to explain to you how dangerous the TPP is, but is it does pass so much will change so fast you will blink and not know where you are anymore.

On the immediate news is the debate again over gun control and mental illness as if each are not blame which they are. It is far too easy to get a gun in this day and age, either off the street or legally. We also have way too many people who are sick walking the street who probably shouldn't be. If we are going to get serious about this issue than some things, big things, have to happen. The War on Drugs has to end and the inner city needs to be cleaned up something fierce. This will drop gun violence 75% as well as solving a host of other problems. We can then spend our money on treatment instead of jail which is stupid and counterproductive. We need back ground checks for ALL guns sales. Even my most gun crazy friends agree with this. Lastly, if we aren't going after drugs anymore, we can reuse that police work to get illegal guns off the street. Give harsh punishments for anyone trafficking illegal guns and break up their networks. We can do this if we want.

On the mental health side, hundreds of new clinics have to be opened up yesterday, paid for by ending the War on Drugs and closing half of our now worthless prisons. Unlike the ones of days past, these will be run well with an oversight committee that will have a decent budget with people getting the care they need. Anyone outside these clinics diagnosed with a serious mental illness gets free mental health care for life, which it will be mandatory to report to a physician once a week for therapy and a piss test to make sure they are taking the drugs they have been prescribed. One of the leading causes of these kinds of attacks are mentally ill who stop talking their medication.The Oregon shooter was one of them. In my scenario, anyone not passing their drug screen gets a one way trip to a padded room until they are deemed safe for society again. This process will repeat forever. This method has little inconvenience for anyone and plenty of benefits for everyone. And it can be done if we want to.

This latest shooter should never have been allowed to buy guns. Anyone battling serious mental illness should be prevented from owning weapons, something only the NRA would fight against and have in the past. But because our mental health system is nonexistent and our background checks are woefully inadequate, these kinds of tragedies will continue until we finally to come to the conclusion that both the left and right have a point when it comes to gun and madness. It's too bad neither side wants to do anything but talk about it.
