I LOVE TO DELIVER GOOD THINGS

   I initially promised that the opinions that I give, and the stories that I tell and the satire I impart on this blog site would be entertaining and humorous and hopefully insightful and enlightening. After reviewing my posts-to-date, I believe they weigh in a little too much on the heavy side, just like I do [Editor's note: ha]. so it is my intention to inject more humor and frivolity in the future, as well as a few human interest stories. 

   Let me begin this new and improved format at once. With my reporting of my concern that our constitutional rights were being abused and ignored during the manhunt that followed the Boston bombing, I had failed to identify and acknowledge something very, very wonderful about human beings. Something quite unique to the animal called man. Almost instinctive in his nature, and glorious to witness. 

   That is the fact that whenever you see a scene of destruction and devastation, where people are getting hurt or killed, you will also see a number of others who go to the aid of those injured or trapped, despite the very real possibility of their own demise, these people risk their lives to comfort and assist those victims. Not for fame or fortune, but for the sake of helping a fellow human being in need. 

   We witnessed this in Boston, moments after the bombs exploded there were people running to the blast site in order to aid those hurt, or assist the first responders any way they could. We were told of the marathon runners who, despite having just run 26.2 miles, continued running to the hospital so that they might donate blood for the many injured. 

   Boston isn't the only place where this occurred, after 9/11 we saw thousands and thousands volunteering their time, their skills, their resources, whatever was needed, they would readily supply.


   After hurricane Katrina, when their government failed them, the people of the Gulf coast received massive assistance from not only their fellow Americans, but people all around the globe. 

   During the Arab Spring we were shown people being shot for their protesting, and within all the chaos and danger you could see people running in to aid those victims and get them to medical care.

    All over the world, whenever earthquakes occur, or dams burst and flood, or mines collapse, or factories explode, or any of a thousand tragedies happen, You will always find people who will selflessly stand up and ask "how can I help?" 

   With all the infighting and derision, the atrocities inflicted, and the suffering endured by so many these perilous days, it makes my heart smile. and my hope for us grow, to see the proof of man's basic love of his brothers, and his concern for their welfare. Thank you to all who restore my faith in the human race, God bless you, and may God bless the human race.

Don't You Point That Finger At Me

   In an effort to be fair in my various accusatory postures, I will attempt to broaden my description of the particular whos, whats, wheres, and whys involved, and try to separate the innocent and unknowing from any collateral damage. 

   When I speak harshly of the GOP, I don't intend to include every Republican party member in the nation. I'm sure that the vast number of Republicans are honest, hard working people, honorable folks who only want the best for their families and for America. When I criticize the GOP for wrongdoing, it is those that are in control that I'm aiming at, the very top of the ladder. 

   I only find fault with the masses of Republicans for allowing their party leaders to act in the fashion they do, but I also realize that the amount of leverage any one party member has is obviously very limited, and the same can be said for Democrats and Independents too, I just wish they wouldn't support the party line just because they are Republicans; those that are in power take that as a free pass. 

   There are obvious targets of my assorted accusations, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Sununu, Rice, Clarke, and a number of others with well-known names that round out the Bush criminal cabinet. My most fierce attacks involve this group of traitors, their selfish behavior, their arrogant lies, their diabolical agenda, their abandonment of oath and honor, their cronyism, and the reckless ways they allowed this great nations financial health to be devastated by their lords and masters on Wall street.

  These greedy bastards used war, fear, and intimidation to line their pockets with gold, and the cost was perhaps a million lives worldwide, mostly civilians, untold trillions, that's trillions, with a "T" of dollars, and the stability of the entire planet whose destiny has not yet been determined. This cabal of thieves could teach the Mafia how to steal. 

   One other main focus of my criticism consists of the GOP Senators and Congressmen in Washington DC. Between the Tea Party's extreme views, and the entire tally of GOP legislators acting like sheep, by voting only along party lines, even over the desires of more than 90% of this country, these representatives of ours have successfully blocked virtually all legislation, including jobs bills, and infrastructure bills that would create millions of jobs for Americans and restart our lagging economy. They are cowards whose self interests trump any concerns for this country and its people, and they should be driven from office.

    The final group of Republicans I so joyfully accuse, are the various Governors and state legislators who have used any means they deem fit to enact laws that, block voting rights, limit womens' health clinics, redistrict areas to ensure GOP victories, etc.

These GOP loyalists take their marching orders from the men behind the scenes, the money men, the connected men, men like Karl Rove and others. If exposed to light these groups would legally be classified as an organized crime entity and prosecuted according to the RICO act, but be assured, that will never happen. 

   I don't think for a second that there isn't corruption within the Democratic party. It's just the sheer magnitude of corruption that permeates the GOP that overwhelms me and drives me to anger. So in my rantings and ravings, please be assured, I respect the everyday man, regardless of party-affiliation, it's the criminal element calling the shots that I have a problem with.

Justice Has Left The Building

   When I watch shows on television such as "Law and Order," or any that dramatize the legal and judicial profession, I have to constantly stop myself from being critical of the reality they portray and remind myself to just relax and try to enjoy the story. 

   That's because the main fiction in those shows isn't the storyline; it's the way they depict how the system works.

    From initial arrest to eventual outcome our modern legal system consists of people seemingly devoid of compassion and fair-mindedness. Starting with the cops who, depending on how much you piss them off, will take extremely wide interpretation of the laws in order to charge you with the maximum number of offenses possible and with the most severe degree possible for those offenses. 

   I have witnessed numerous times people being charged with first and second-degree felonies for things that are misdemeanors at best, and non-existent on more occasions than you might think. That is a result from society at large being ignorant of what their police departments are up to and the direct acceptance and encouragement of prosecuting attorneys at all levels of government to maximize any charges possible. 

   These prosecutors know that if they can intimidate someone by threatening massive fines and long prison sentences, it is highly likely that whatever they offer as a plea agreement on lesser charges and softer penalties, will be readily accepted by those accused, out of fear of being locked up for years and years. 

   The police and the prosecuting attorneys know that most of those charges won't stick. But, if they lose, it only costs them a judgement. On the other hand, if the accused loses, he will lose years of his life and more.

   The prosecuting attorney's office is staffed with, perhaps, the most callous, heartless, ruthless and cynical members of all law-enforcement branches. They know that the more convictions they achieve, the better their résumé looks. 

   TV programs showing prosecutors exhibiting remorse for the accused being found guilty make me laugh. They couldn't possibly care any less about those they put away. And since a high percentage of those accused end up with court-appointed attorneys who get paid a flat fee for their representation, the advice almost always given is to "just take the deal." Thereby freeing up that court-appointed attorney to handle cases for which he's getting paid ten to twenty times the amount he gets from those the courts give him. 

   Blind justice no longer resides in this nation, only a legal grist mill run by uncaring self-centered people who do not see someone as an individual citizen who is innocent until proven guilty, but as a commodity, to be used in any fashion needed for the attainment of their personal goals

Please, Please, Please Say It Ain't So!

   You know that feeling you get in your stomach when you're driving down the freeway, going about 72 miles per hour, watching other traffic, and perhaps scouting out lane change opportunities, when all of a sudden, as you are rounding the curve, you spot him: that semi-hidden vehicle parked in the shadows of the overpass, and with the drivers door open ever so much there sits a person wearing an official uniform; in their hands, they hold what looks like an over-sized pistol. That over-sized pistol is pointing directly at you, and as your foot instinctively separates from the accelerator pedal, your eyes immediately focus on the speedometer, you experience what feels like Mike Tyson landing one right in your midsection, because you just got caught. 

   As you pass that now obvious police vehicle, and witness in the rear view mirror that its door is now closed, its red and blue lights are flashing wildly and it is approaching you at what appears to be light speed, that a nice chat with the officer is about to befall you, followed by an invitation to donate a fair chunk of change to the powers-that-be. 

   It's that feeling, that nauseating gut-grabber that is starting to make its presence known to me more and more. As I keep tabs on the performance of our elected representatives in Washington D.C., I pay special attention to our President, Barack Obama and the way he carries himself while performing his Presidential duties. 

   I have always been a strong supporter of Obama, believing that the desperately needed changes this nation requires were being handled by someone with the ability and desire to get them done.

    Through his first four years I defended him from all attackers, believing that they mostly consisted of bigots and sore losers. I touted that his progressive programs and social remedies were being sidelined and sabotaged by a treasonous Republican Congress, Hell-bent on an agenda of non-cooperation at any cost. 

   The uneasy feelings I am currently experiencing are derived from Obama's agreeing to and supporting of certain laws and legislation that seem to give our government more and more leeway to deny us our rights as American citizens. The authority to arrest, imprison and in the extreme, kill us.

    Nobody on this planet was more elated than I was when George W. Bush and his criminal organization finally left the White House and my spirits and optimism had hit new highs when the GOP machine failed to retain the Oval Office. 

   I'm not giving up hope yet, I still believe President Obama truly has this nation's best interest at heart, and will guide us to a new era of American world leadership, and restore us as a role model for all other nations and restore the prosperity and prestige we once possessed, which the previous administration carelessly squandered away. 

   I'll be keeping a watchful eye on his future actions, and I'll be praying to God that he turns out to be the hero I so desperately want to believe in, and our nation so desperately needs.

That's Why Everyone Calls Him "Dick."

   On a previous blog, I wrote a somewhat scathing commentary about George W. Bush, and my surprise that there were still people that would honor him by building a Presidential library bearing his name, even though over an 8 year period the only things he demonstrated that he was a master at were deception, manipulation, and treachery. Otherwise he acted like a spoiled child, or an illiterate moron. 

   The years spent watching that insufferable idiot took its toll on me.  At the end of his second term I was so overjoyed that he was leaving, I didn't care if a spider monkey got elected, as long as it wasn't George W. Bush.

    Here we are, four years since baby Bush ruled the roost, and I believe my opinion of him has softened a bit; by no means am I giving him a pass for his belligerence, and treachery, but I think I gave him credit for being more intelligent than he actually is. 

   It was apparent from early on that not only did Dick Cheney have Bush's ear, he seems to have had virtually unlimited influence and control over all decisions made by Jr. While still a candidate for President in 2000, Jr. asked Cheney to help him find a suitable candidate for the office of Vice President, and after what I can only guess was an exhaustive search, found nobody to fill the position except he himself. Even better than that, he already knew just the right folks needed to round out Bush's administration, how convenient was that! 

   It was obvious early on that Cheney was President in everything but title, and that old Georgie was nothing but a vessel that the Dickster used to gain power.  However, the sheer hollowness of depth demonstrated by Bush was nothing short of amazing. You couldn't have found a better straw man if you looked for a thousand years.

    Now this political union may look innocent and conveniently haphazard to the naive, but rest assured, the powers that be had very carefully plotted, planned, and put into effect this diabolical duo's coupling for the express purpose of fulfilling an elaborate agenda that they had lying in wait, for just the right moment to arrive, and now here it was. 

   They had an idiot that had name recognition and political experience, but had the leadership skills of a carrot, and would be more than eager to delegate any decision making to others around him. They had a gang of fellow conspirators that were hand picked years ago, and standing by for their cue to enter the scene. 

   Those criminals included the likes of Donald Rumsfeld, Richard Clarke, Karl Rove, and many others. These sinister players, and the GOP leadership they controlled, had spent the better part of two decades slowly building the Republican party up until it became a powerhouse in Washington D.C., and in a majority of the states. The time had finally arrived for this cabal of traitors to act, they managed to rig the election for their stolen victory, and now were in a position to initiate the sinister agenda that they had planned for so long. 

   Their plan was the overthrow and takeover of Iraq, but they needed a plausible excuse for the invasion that the American public would accept. Fast forward to 2001, it became known that an attack on the World Trade Center was imminent, and the method of delivery was to be airliners crashed into the towers, and perhaps on buildings in Washington D.C. 

   Now these evil men are a lot of things, but stupid is not one of them. They saw the first attack on the WTC, and the public outrage was minimal. They saw our embassies getting bombed and again, public outcry was barely heard, then the USS Cole gets blown up, again nothing. They knew that what it would take to stir America to arms would need to be spectacular, and with that they set out to ensure that the attack on the towers would be a huge success, with a level of destruction the world had never seen. 

   Bush immediately declared "war on terror" and claimed Presidential powers afforded to him only during a state of war. Constitutional rights were curtailed and suspended in the name of security, legislation such as the "PATRIOT ACT" were hurriedly pushed through Congress, and if you questioned ANYTHING the government decreed, you were labeled "un-American" and chastised accordingly. 

   Now that Cheney and his minions created complete chaos at home and abroad, they could put forth the lies needed to invade Iraq. Those lies were that Saddam Hussein secretly supported and trained the terrorists involved in 9/11, and later, that he was amassing weapons of mass destruction that he was planning to use against the United States. 

   With unbelievable manipulation of supposed evidence, and lies that were epic in number and audacity, they put forth their diabolical agenda, and the rest as they say, is history. Cheney and his cronies in the military industrial complex made their billions of dollars, got control of Iraqi oil, and all it cost was a few hundred thousand lives, a few trillions of dollars, and all the prestige that the United States once held in the eyes of the world. 

   The treason most certainly didn't stop there, over the next five years Bush, Cheney and the GOP leadership would turn a surplus of hundreds of billions of dollars into a deficit of trillions of dollars. They would deregulate industries controlled by their corporate crony friends, and stifle the authority of other government agencies to enforce regulations if those regulations interfered with the profitability of those corporations. 

   These complicit traitors not only stood by and profited from their insidious actions, they facilitated the ability of their financial overlords to bring this nation to its economic knees, destroying the security and life savings of millions upon millions of Americans, costing millions of people their homes, their jobs, and their dignity.

   But there is no need to worry about Bush and Cheney and the bankers and Wall street, they have lots of money, and they'll be just fine. 

   Even though some years have passed, my belief is that Bush, Cheney, Rove, and their criminal enterprise should stand trial and go to prison where they belong. I'm not naive, and I doubt any one of these pieces of shit will ever see a prison cell, but I can promise you that if I witness any of them suffering intensely, the only thing you'll see me doing is laughing.

Who The Hell Decides These Things? They Need To Be Fired!

The George W. Bush Presidential Library

ARE YOU F*****G KIDDING ME? 

   The Bush library? George Bush? George W. Bush? Really? A Library? How ironic is that? This boggles my mind to no end, that a person who's taken the English language to a previously unknown level of misspoken words and phrases, a person that can't repeat a full paragraph written on a script without screwing it up, a person who claims to have graduated from college, yet sounds as if he left school after almost finishing 7th grade.

This guy is opening a library with his name on it?

    Now I realize that sometimes truth is stranger than fiction, but come on, this is just too much. How, how, how could a just and loving God allow this to happen? Is this the punishment for some unspeakable sin? Is this God's wrath being poured upon us? Or is this just God's idea of a practical joke? 

John Wayne Gacy, Jr.

   What's next, the John Wayne Gacy ranch for homeless boys? A franchise of Jeffery Dahmer butcher shops? The Osama Bin Laden school for diplomacy in government?

    When I think of a library, I imagine an institute of great learning. All the knowledge mankind has accumulated throughout history, in books, neatly lined-up on shelf after shelf, row after row, inviting you to dive in and languish in the splendor of a world filled with science, and history, and nature, and all the magical things you can possibly think of. I picture a place of great dignity and integrity, a place of high ideals, a place of honor and respect. 

   Let it suffice to say, that I don't get that same image when I think about George Jr. Let's set aside the deception and lies he told in order to declare war on, and then invade Iraq, a war that cost hundreds of thousands of lives, trillions of dollars, and put an entire region of the world into chaos that continues to this day. 

Let's also set aside the fact that he spent the entire amount of prestige the United States held in the world by the arrogant attitude and treatment of most other countries on the globe. Let's also set aside his flagrant breaking of the law, his disregard for the Constitution and its Bill of Rights, and his personal approval for the torture of prisoners. 

   But let's not set aside the fact that on countless occasions George W. Bush willingly and without remorse, broke a sacred vow he took to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

    He made a personal promise to every man, woman, and child in America with the knowledge that those promises were worthless, and to him, merely words spoken to achieve a goal.

    George W. Bush is a traitor to this country, and a liar that doesn't deserve anybody's respect. He is a dishonorable person that has done irreparable harm to this country, its people, and the people of the world. 

   A library, or any other institution of honor and distinction should not have to suffer the shame and humility of being named after George W. Bush.

We Should Have Seen It Coming (satire)

Faux Noise: Bare and Phalliced

   It appears that FOX News (?) Channel has an exclusive on the story of the century.

    FOX reported that it has confirmed this information, with its usual sources, in the chat rooms and on blog sites.

   Those sources revealed that the United States has, for the last 61 years, been using North Korea as a covert training base for the elite troops it plans to use in the sequestering of it's population, and the imposition of military rule across America. 

  The reports indicate that ex-Vice President Dick Cheney will be given the honorary rank of six-star general, and placed as the "Dicktator" in charge. Donald Rumsfeld will be named Vice Dicktator, but only given four stars, because Cheney doesn't think he deserves five. 

   Ex-President George W. Bush has not been contacted by anybody. 

Pyongyang, North Korea

   FOX News reports that the military takeover has been planned since 1952, and that its time for implementing is now, before the Republican party self-implodes completely and fails to exist at all.

    Fox also says that their sources in the chat rooms admit that the covert nature of this takeover plan was brilliantly executed, that while the entire world was told that North Korea was a closed society and that no outsiders were permitted into the country, there existed the perfect cover to train the forces needed for their diabolical agenda, without the world ever noticing. 

   Evidently, the initial plan had called for a number of North Korean soldiers to be involved in the initial invasion. However, due to the emaciation of 93% of the North Korean military, Cheney and his evil group instead secretly made a pact with the Swiss Navy, and the Salvation Army to ally with the Sri Lankan soldiers that they have already trained. 

   There were reports that the Canadian Mounted Police were scheduled to take part in the operation, however FOX News could not confirm this on any of the blogs they looked at.

   FOX  News confirmed their reliable sources have claimed that this takeover operation is imminent and that we should expect to start seeing its full implementation no later than election time in 2014. 

"Hello, Clarice."

   It has also been rumored that in preparation for his position of "Dicktator," Cheney has imprisoned three young men that share his blood type for the express purpose of any new heart transplants he may require. Word has it that since his body had functioned without any heart for so long, that it doesn't recognize the need for one now, and so rejects them soon after installation. 

   Donald Rumsfeld is scheduled for a nose extension so that he can still breathe through it while it's stuck up Cheney's ass.

    Condoleezza Rice apparently has not been offered a position in the new regime because, as Dick Cheney states,"Come on.  She's black and she's a woman.  How could that help?" 

   Their plan calls for the dissolution of the Senate and Congress, but experts agree that nobody will notice the difference with them being gone.

    All citizens opposed to this new government are encouraged to immediately head south and climb the fence into Mexico, where it is reported that the Mexican population is waiting to greet them with open arms. 

Stay tuned to FOX News Channel. Your reliable news source.
