A “Higher Calling ” for Palin praise the Lord and dig that bunker…

buycoolshirts.net

Now lets figure this out, Palin is quoted by Associated Press the day after her resignation:
“Palin indicated…she would take on a larger, national role, citing a “higher calling” to unite the country along conservative lines.”

So let’s see,
She is a conservative like George W. Bush
She has a higher calling like George W. Bush
She’s a runner Like George W. Bush
She can clear brush and shoot things like George W. Bush
She has a big ego like George W. Bush
She talks in circles and confusion like George W. Bush
She is an airhead like George W. Bush, though it took her several colleges to finally get a degree at because she didn’t have a Yale alumni as a father.
So if she runs for President in 2012 and if Obama does a crappy job and she wins the presidency, we will have another George W. Bush and Todd will be the new Dick Cheney!
Then get ready and dig that bunker! The Mayan predictions might come true, the world will come to an end in 2012!  I think the best “higher calling” for Sarah Palin would be if she could take her family and colonize Uranus!!!

P/S Mark Sanford is so in debt to Michael Jackson, that he better be talking to his “higher calling” and promising he won’t “cross the lines” with other women anymore and will be obedient instead of passionate…(poor Jenny)

Glenn Beck should be jailed for abetting treason

Glenn Beck and his FOX backers have not made one apology for promoting Michael Scheuer and his wish that America get attacked as, (his exact words):
“Only Osama can execute an attack that will force Americans to demand that their government protect them effectively, consistently, and with as much violence as necessary.”
Hello sauce brain Beck and Scheuer, Robert Gates is still in charge – we have the same military in place that Bush has left only without assholes like Cheney’s friend Rumsfeld.
One could tell Beck loved Scheuers words,  you could tell how excited Glenn was for that wish to come true, after all he is born again and convinced he is doing the Lords work having a talk show promoting hate for the Democrats, (or Socialists as he refers to them).
Could hate be any ‘hate-ier’ than when you are promoting treason? And why hasn’t the government charged him and Scheuer with being on a major television station and asking Bin Laden to come on over and give us what he’s got?  Maybe they give right-winged, “patriotic”  jerk-offs a pass, even our past president said “bring it on”, but had you or I said that as bloggers, we would be jailed!
Beck should be investigated for promoting hate crimes! His vengeance against Americans who do not think or worship as he does is just plain  un-American. FOX should be distancing themselves against such hate.
Treason: American Heritage Dictionary:

NOUN:

1. Violation of allegiance toward one’s country or sovereign, especially the betrayal of one’s country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies.
2. A betrayal of trust or confidence.

Iraq in celebration – by bombing – Gov Sanford wanted the best of both worlds, passion and obedience

The natives are happy about our retreat in Iraq. Bush’s agreement with al- Maliki has come to fruition and our troops are now out of the cities and staying on base. They are  not allowed to mingle and must stay walled up, so why do we have to stay?
The Iraqi people are celebrating on the streets, there’s music, singing, gun fire and bombings. The bombings killed many today and they expect them to continue till our departure in 2010.  Why wait? Lets bring our troops home now, we have given enough lives for a war that should not have happened. Now it’s time to let Iraq go to it’s natural owner. Will it remain a voting ‘democracy’? Or when will the coup with a Saddam Hussein relative happen?  Are we staying so  G. W. Bush can finally say he had it right and can proclaim victory? OR,  so Obama can say we didn’t let it implode? Are we there until the oil field bids are over? What is our purpose? Bring them home NOW!!! We are making them targets.

Getting caught is a bitch and continually lying about it is a bigger bitch!~ Poor Mark Sanford, he tried to get his wife to agree to let him visit his mistress, especially after getting the word from his religious and spiritual leader saying, “marriage is what, “we’re called to do-out of obedience instead of out of passion.”  WOW, that is some kind of credo for having a lousy married life. What kind of religion wants you to have to suffer through marriage?
Sanford thought that meant if he could get Jenny’s approval, that would seal both ends of the deal:  obedience from Jenny and passion from Maria. Then he tells Jenny he must go to his mistress in order to break up, it has to be in person. That’s the oldest fake line in the book! Wake up Jenny, he had no intention whatsoever of breaking it off, he just plain and simply got caught. What a douche-bag! Sanford told lie after lie and should step down. He let the religious conservatives down, he negated his job as Governor telling lies and avoided his responsibility for his job while taking a trip for “the passion”.  Sanford is an ass who wants the best of both worlds, boot him and his damn ego out…

As for nailin’ Palin, I guess she got what she deserved this month in Vanity Fair as her GOP ‘handlers’ confirmed she is pretty much of a bubble head.  If I were McCain, I would never rely on Charlie Blacks advice again  — When will the right wing conservatives come out of their gas cloud and see reality? After all this crap with Ensign, Sanford, and Palin, wow, the Morman is not looking so bad….

Bush is Back- his name is Obama and that’s not ‘poppy’cock

De-ja Vu!!!  It’s June and here we go again! Today the  Obama administration announced that the USA is,  “phasing out funding for eradication efforts of opium in Afghanistan while significantly increasing its funding for alternate crop and drug interdiction efforts.”

So where is the news? This is right out of the George W. Bush playbook and he also did it in June, ( 2001 just months before the September 11 attacks.)  Bush handed over $12million to the Taliban, (from our open credit equity line via China)  and gave the Taliban carte blanche to “stop growing poppies for opium.” Obama is pretending that when we hand over the new money, (compounding more interest for the Chinese) to Karzai, who then hands over to the warlords many of who are still Taliban, that Karzai will tell them they must plant, oh, let’s say okra. I’m sure the warlords then thank Karzai and the USA profusely and plant more poppies. Where would Afghanistan be without their top crop of opium and a handout of cash?
The G-8 can applaud all they want, but the hard reality is, who over sees all this money we have to borrow to tell the warlords to plant something edible?
It’s a joke, it’s more of the same, it’s de ja vu or groundhog day if you prefer.
Why not tell the G-8 that you will not be sending any money to help Afghanistan cultivate, but instead we will air drop some Burpee seeds once a year. It’s way cheaper and the worse that can happen is that they actually plant the seeds.
Before that, as I have said all along, why did we never bomb one poppy field if the G-8 and the USA have been so concerned about the opium trade? All it tells me is that the Afghan farmers will have a good laugh at continuation of the money flow from the USA, and that Obama is Bush light…

Where were you when Thriller came out?

They always say you mark time in times of some traumatic happening, when they said Michael Jackson had died tonight, it really did not come as a shock.  He had always seemed frail .
I was flipping through the channels watching FOX News being out of the loop reporting  Jackson was in a coma and ‘Rivera’ was speculating about “pills” while the other cables were saying Jackson had died.  MTV was playing Jacksons music videos.
Michael’s music will long be remembered. He was that adorable little brother who stole the show from his older brothers on stage.

He was Ben, Black and White,  and the funny lyrics sung as  “the chair is not my son”… I remember too that old joke that maybe Michael was really LaToya and what about the strange “baby dangle” over the balcony?  But joking aside, many may think of Michael as a pedophile and concentrate on  his odd behaviors, but I think more of us will focus on the music and the  dancing that just blew us all away.
Our parents had Fred Astaire, but Michael Jackson made him look like Fred was standing still when Michael’s feet went into action moonwalking and dancing.

So where were you when Thriller came out?   I remember it well, we had moved to Camden, South Carolina and made a lot of friends as it was a very close knit town.  But on this occasion, we had waited for weeks for Thriller on MTV. Three of us ‘liberal’  couples got together in 1984 with our 9 kids and sat glued in front of MTV just waiting for 5pm to come. And when it did, we were not disappointed.
The room was completely quiet, quite different than you would imagine with all those children, and when it came on, the children adored it as much as did we! In fact my daughter had a birthday themed party that summer inviting the kids to come as their favorite rock star. Several of the boys came with the jacket and gloves that were Jackson’s signature. Gosh, those kids are now 30 years old!!! 

Through the years, we have enjoyed the music and videos put out by Jackson.  We have heard so many things negative and good about him, but to me, it will be Thriller that sticks in my mind as my all time favorite – what’s yours?

Mark Sanford, “and getting to build something with each scoop of dirt.”

Yep, the self righteous asshole had an affair and cries on cue for the camera saying his wife knew 5 months ago. Five months ago!!! So did she give her blessing to keep at it? Because if he had not been caught this weekend, he would have still been a busy boy continuing the affair. AND did you notice when he is mentioning all the people he hurt, the mistress was number one, his wife was about number 4!!!
Once these GOP members get caught, they cry and give us their hollow words after being hypocrites! These creeps act like they have been “family values”, upright, conservatives while bashing Clinton and then pretending to be sanctimonious!  Whoops – you Mark Sanford are the same slime you try and assign to democrats!
That was a perfect quote he wrote in an email  to his lover, “and getting to build something with each scoop of dirt.”  Yes Mark, was any of this shit done on the taxpayer dollar while you canoodled and left your staff and the state of South Carolina vulnerable?  Seems you were too busy thinking about;

“…magnificent gentle kisses, or …tan lines or …the curve of your hips, the erotic beauty of you…”     We will be waiting to watch what each scoop of dirt reveals …..

Dick Cheney’s new book should focus on Mark Sanford’s lost 6 days

Whoops, Mark Sanford missing for 6 days is coming to do a press conference later to explain what rabbit hole he fell into.
Governor “family values” ditched his wife and 4 kids and went to “Get away from the kids” and “write a book”, on Fathers Day weekend. His wife was not sure where he was, his staff swore he was sulking on the Appalachian trail. Then we find out Sanford was in Argentina for 5 days and would not delegate authority or call the Lt. Governor to tell him. Ummm, so did he

A. meet a mistress in Argentina
B.  meet young men in Argentina
C. Meet little children in Argentina
D. do a drug deal in Argentina

The press will find out. AND since Dick Cheney is being paid $2million to publish a childrens fictional account of “How Grandpa Kept America Safe”  using Mary Matalin as his editor, so as daughter Liz says, (to paraphrase) -his grand children know how effective their grandpa while he was boss of the oval office, maybe Cheney should ditch the effort on rewriting Bush history for the Grandkids and write a book on Sanford’s lost weekend….  

God loves nudists, off with the burqa

In the 60’s we had the Women’s Liberation Movement and burned our bras!

(bra burning photo: Frankie Voigt)

President Sarkozy of France is right — it’s a new day for more womens lib! Toss that stinky burqa aside if you are living outside the middle east. Be proud of yourself as a women! That garment IS a sign of total female suppression!  Come on – I can see the functionality of it in Afghanistan and other middle eastern areas where you are a second class citizen, but we are talking about living in France where women are highly valued and very outspoken.

And think about the Bible instead of the Quran – In the beginning, God actually put the first nudists on earth, Adam and Eve. God loved them wandering about in the garden in their all-together with no shame and on equal footing. Then the intelligence of Eve and that shiftless snake had to ruin it all by asking questions! But no one is asking for that kind of bare commitment. All President Sarkozy is saying is if you live in France then live free of body armor! Walk the street as a proud women! No one has the right to make you feel so bad about yourself that you have to cover the whole package!  Buy a Hawaiian muu muu,  it hides the body, but at least your face is free to enjoy the full view of the sidewalk.

So what is wrong with being gauze free? That young male child pictured above is learning from a young age that his mother’s body is ‘bad’ and must be covered – what’s the point of bringing up another generation of males to think females are so damn dumb and dangerous and submissive that they must be concealed? Be proud of yourself!  This is a new age!
I agree with Sarkozy, women in burqas in France – strip off that burqa and put on something and blend in to society! There is no reason in this day and age while living abroad to make a fashion statement  that says you enjoy looking like a would-be suicide bomber. So unless you use that burqa as a business, say maybe  selling crack or as a corner ’store’ to sell fake Gucci purses and faux Brighton Jewelry from beneath, or you are actually wearing a timer device, get rid of that thing! Go home and take it off and look in a mirror, you are a woman with value and importance! You are now living in a country that values you more than the Afghan family mule and gun! You are free to be a woman and dress like one, but whatever you do, try not to make this fashion error:
this is how American female suppression looks, this is the  dress of the American polygamist burqa – these women need liberation also, they have their own womens issues so I’d opt for something more trendy.

No words – photos of protest in Iran

Our hearts are bleeding for the Iranian protesters, keep up the bravery!

These photos are taken from Youtube and off CNN’s news which is using various methods of gathering information.

Iranians protest – blame Bush! But where is Obama’s response?

Where is Obama? I don’t understand his silence other than he has to work with whoever will be president which boils down to that mad man, Ahmadinejad. But lets take this one step further, Iran’s population has 30% youth factor, a population who are now on the streets shouting for freedom. If you watch Youtube you see people screaming those words, they want freedom and they want it even while the Police on motorcycles with batons smack the crap out of them.  The Police are grabbing people out of the crowd and making examples of them. It is enlightening to find such people of conviction and courage banding together demanding change. We  Americans bellyache about crap,

but here are people on the streets demanding change while getting beat up, arrested and pulled out of their homes by the police for showing dissent.

The Ayatollah tells them the elections were fair. He is in charge and can anything be accomplished? I am not advocating an invasion – but how do we help support these people who have been duped in a fake election?
(we were duped in 2000 and look what that cost us.)
Though the shame of this can be put in a hypothetical: think about this as an opportunity missed by the Bush Administration to have been a hero of real freedom. If God had only told George W. to invade Iran, the country that actually HAS WMD’s, unlike Iraq! If only we  had undermined the Iran Revolutionary Guard instead, we might be watching a growing legitimate  democracy over in the middle east! But NO — that stubborn Bush and his VP Cheney had to retaliate and go after Saddam Hussein because those stupid neo-cons thought it would be an easy way to control the oil revenues in Iraq. Otherwise we might be watching the results of the first Iranian free elections!  We might be watching people who embraced us for helping free them from tyranny! If only Bush and Cheney had not screwed us over by making an ongoing Iraqi money pit that will keep funding Dick Cheney’s retirement through their contracts with Halliburton and KBR. AND, will Iraq revert to another Saddam Hussein dictatorship after we leave! (Well, when thinking of how they let Rummy, Bremmer and others screw up in Iraq, they probably would have had Iran hating us too. Again, I am not advocating war with Iran. This is just a hypothetical,)

The House did pass a resolution today in support of the protestors in Iran. Obama needs to come out and say something in support of the protestors too. France is speaking out and asking for tough sanctions, where is the USA? Iranian protestors are clamoring for change.  We voted for change too, somehow as the days wither away, I kind of feel like protesting myself for everything not being done by the Obama Adminstration, but that is another blog. Maybe Obama can put some ‘Czar’ in charge of Iranian protests. We MUST support the youth of Iran! They are the hope for a peaceful future and stabilization of the Middle East!
The scary thing is wondering what will happen tomorrow at the big rally? Will the Ayatollah have police shoot the protestors? Obama, be a leader, speak out in support -
