know it is silly to still be fretting over the Bush Administration, but it really bothers me that this entire family, three generations of them, treasonous as the day is long at midsummer, got away with treason starting with Grand Dad Prescott's financial support of Hitler. Prescott Bush was invested heavily in I.G Farben, who manufactured munitions and weaponry for Hitler's army.
And then, George W. Bush, got so many of the Religious Right, the Evangelicals, especially in the flyover states, to support him. And this support was not merely a casual sort of voter support of a candidate.
No!
This was loyalty such as we have not seen since peasants and knights loved and swore fealty to their king with a love that surpasseth understanding. This sort of thing is best illustrated by the woman in Ohio who said that if she saw George W. Bush take a gun and blow out her little boy's brains before her very eyes, she would still love that man. This huge support for a monster, who gave us torture, the illegal invasion of Iraq, is very disturbing. These Americans need to be shot for treason as well. With all generosity one might say, that such people did not know who they voted for. That his appalling policies disgusted them.
They could claim that the first time.
But they elected him a second time.
They are guilty and complicit as hell!
But here is video in which a respected investigative journalist talks about what he found as hard evidence demonstrating the treasonous nature of the family.
he Federal Government is about to become your enemy. The FBI has already shown itself to be working on behalf of the criminal banksters and against the 99%
1984 is the blueprint of a perfect society --- at least as far as the Fascists are concerned. Why are the American people letting this happen? View this video and do something about it or become a serf.
itt Romney's refusal to reveal his income taxes, is based on more than the fact that for some years he did not pay a dime. His base would be fine with that. Oh, they might not love it, but it would not seriously hurt. It bothers them not one whit that Romney, a trust baby, who began life with millions of dollars, who persecuted gays boys at his elite private school, now evades paying any taxes at all, while you and I are up to our elbows, struggling to pay our mortgages to the pig banks.and the IRS. No, conservatives like that about Romney. But there is another reason. A reason that would force his base to weep great salty tears whenever they heard his name. A reason which, if proven beyond a reasonable doubt, would end his entire campaign overnight. And his campaign people are running as fast as they can to put out the little fires that would blow this into a huge conflagration.
Oh, the flat-out mutha-lovin' hypocrisy!
This is good!
Really good.
Ever hear of a company called Stericycle?
Stericycle is a medical waste clean up company. As in cleaning up after an abortion. Abortion? Yes.
Abortion.
Mitt Romney and company have tried their damnedest to distance themselves from Stericycle. They have tried to claim that Mr. Romney was no longer associated with Bain Capital Equity Group at the time that Bain owned controlling shares of Stericycle. But they can't make it stick. Mother Jones sent a request to the SEC for copies of original documents tracing the ownership of Stericycle to Bain throughout the very years Romney's people are trying to claim he just wasn't there.
Those claims turn out to be just another bald faced lie, of which there have been far too many lately. So let's just clear the air: A vote for Romney is a vote, not for Pro-Life issues, and not even for abortion.
A vote for Romney/Ryan is a vote for abortion profiteering. Let me say that again.
Abortion Profiteering / Mitt Romney!
Romney made millions upon millions on Stericycle. How could he not? They have more than 475, 000 accounts. Now the next question is this: Why the Republican owned media has fumbled the ball on this issue? Not so much as a a peep from the New York Times. Not a hint or a clue from the Gannett owned Statesman Journal here in Salem, OR, the Capital city of the great state of Oregon. Nada from the conservatively owned Oregonian in liberal Portland. Not entirely Zero but close.
he Republican Party should be ashamed of themselves. Running around desperately restricting the rights of voters. If Republicans had a photon of decency, they would not countenance such outright villainy.
Specifically in the states of Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. So far. And this is over the strenuous objections of the federal Department of Justice. Those conservative officials seem to enjoy thumbing their noses at the Feds on this issue.
In America, for Christ's sake!
It is a series of moves by state governors and legislators, those which are predominantly conservative, which points to desperation. It says, very loudly, that there is the head-banging realization followed by the palpable, throat-grabbing fear, that the only way the Republican Party can win is by cheating. Last time, the Republicans cheated by fixing the Diebold voting machines.
Oh, puh-leez, don't even think about denying it. Everybody knew! We even have the statement from the CEO of Diebold promising that he would do anything to guarantee Bush election. So what we have is a Party of Dunces who can achieve nothing without willfully destroying the Spirit of Democracy. And whose members have so relinquished their moral compass that they've descended to the level of snake in the grass; and this time they make no bones about the fact that they are doing this sort of thing. In Ohio, for example they are extending the hours of voting polls in Republican districts. But they are shutting down the polls in Progressive districts early. And the statements uttered by the Secretary of state are so absurd it makes one woozy to contemplate the chutzpah he brazenly demonstrates to the world.
This is the way of the bully, the fraud, and thug gangster. One feels embarrassment for the poor creature even if he himself is beyond such emotions himself.

As they say in the Deep South: a man who will lie to you, will steal from you. And a man who will steal from you will kill you.
But beyond the officials, who give no hint of embarrassment at their own treason, are the conservative voters themselves, who have made no outcry protesting such blatant attempts to circumvent the US Constitution and abridge the right of voters, regardless of said voters political persuasion. Such lack of sanguine response to chicanery and outright knavery, speaks volumes about the moral fiber of the rank and file conservative voter themselves.
My new definition of a Republican is one whose political purview causes one's soul to cry out to be murdered in his sleep.
nthinkable as it is to me, there is a group of Christians, so called, the Dominionists so twisted in their cult-think that their main effort, their raison d'étre, is the destruction of the U.S. Constitution so as to replace it with the Bible. And there is a great deal of money behind the movement. People we have a lot of work to do. To think that there are so many people in America who's heads are so twisted that they would desire to destroy the very country which allowed them the freedom to come together in the first place.
This is madness.
Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich are indicative of the ilk they would choose for their leaders.

What will these people do when they finally discover that they, themselves are the false prophets and Anti-Christ they so much fear? That the Bible is just a collection of old war stories and love songs, rants and fallacious histories? In the meantime while it is most often counterproductive to ban a cult such as this, Christianity is now more detrimental to the welfare of our community than it is positive.
The Unitarians came out of the Enlightenment. In fact, the Unitarian Universalists are the Enlightenment. The same Enlightenment which produced the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
y strong suspicion is that much of the gay population is a useful canary in the coal mine. For more than four decades, macho gays have acted out --- in their sexuality --- the very stuff which is now coming to light as an aspect, a decidedly hideous aspect, at that, of government in America. The sexual game of Master and Slave once confined to the bedroom is now to be found in Corporate Boardrooms as well as Federal and state agencies. Well, hasn't it just blossomed into BDSM, throughout middle American Christian bedrooms?!
Of course, the gays boys dressed it all up in black leather. In fact, they invented an iconic look using the sleek animal texture of the leather to emphasize exaggerated masculine body parts. The look was adopted and perfected, in the pornographic drawings of the great gay porn artist Tom O'Finland. Much of Tom's work now resides in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
The Black Leather look of BDSM was so sexy, so hot, so flattering, that the straight world got so turned on, they appropriated the look and called it their own. Now, Christian ladies everywhere throughout the American Mid-West, give themselves up to the whims of their cruel masters in black leather chaps, chest straps, harnesses, or, lately, latex outfits. But then --- that is what straight people have always done. Stolen whatever the gays were up to and then pretended that they, the straights actually had the creative juice to create something so stylish and forward looking.
They don't, of course. But they like to think they do. But this is old news.
The real news is that the Corporate State has privatized the prison system; and since one in every hundred American is now in prison, we now have what Corporations have longed for all these decades: SLAVERY. Yes, boys and girls, the ugly face of master/slavery has not really ever gone away. It simply went underground and now in this utterly corrupt era, it feels free to show itself.
The Military Industrial Complex has created a work force which costs them less than Chinese labor and no shipping costs. Journalist Mike Elk, who is a specialist in current Labor Practices explains how the Military Industrial Complex (hereafter MIC) has co-opted the prison system. Remember those 2 judges who were caught in Pennsylvania illegally sentencing young people to slave labor prisons, for which they were generously compensated by the Corrections Corporation of America. That Corporation by the way, is still very powerful. The onus fell on the judges and not the Corporation.
ot that I would have voted for him anyway. But here are some core Republicans expressing so succinctly why nobody should vote for Romney.
The man is a total disgrace. He is the very embodiment of the reason why Republican Crony capitalism is through.
Finished in America.
The Romney campaign is trying to claim that old Mitt is a job creator.
What lies!
What liars!

Bain Capital is a prime player of vulture capitalism, Rick Perry says.
So the video gives us some insider's view of how Mitt Romney sees the world. And I for one, tremble at the prospect of a Mitt Romney/Return of the GOP presidency for four years look at the damage George W. Bush did in fours years and then the stupids began chanting "Four More Years!" and he finished off the entire American economy.
Now take a look at Robert Reich as he clears the flatulent air of Republican lies with the bothersome (to Republicans) dart of shining reality.
