OK we’re going to be
politically correct in our name designation.
For instance Rush Limbaugh was always careful to refer to the NY
governor as ‘Mario Coomo” because Jesse Jackson pronounced it that way. Now we have Scott Wanker running against Mary
Burke. Usually when it’s a woman running
against a man, vote for the woman. Of
course that’s the politically correct pronounciation because John Lennon
pronounces it that way- - along with, of course, Stephanie Miller who
pronounces it “Wanker”. So Scott Wanker
is in trouble. But I would just say that
if we were to believe “the media” ALL ten or twelve key races out there with
the Senate or Governors- - will be won by the Republicans. But the media at large is doing this massive
recessitation job on Republicans to insure that they win. And you see it by the way the media spins
literally everything. For instance the
Ebola virus is what is now the source of this “new Republican surge” in the
polls, even though the Ebola crisis itself is now basically passed. People have been cleared of having infections
and the past couple of days it hasn’t been an issue, except for media pollsters. And then we have this autopsy report of
Ferguson Missouri. It seems that Michael
Brown was shot through the palm, and this PROVES he was “wrestling with the
officer to grab his gun”. But think
about it. What Black person is going to
storm an officer’s car and grab his gun- - and then put his other hand over the
gun barrel? It makes no sense. Much more likely Brown was shot there while
he had his hands up. The media took
pains to get officer Wilson’s story out there- - even they won’t decide on
whether to indict till December or even January. But now they say that Michael Browns “tissue”
was found on the outside of the police car.
This fact was never in dispute- - but the way the media is spinning it-
- this autopsy is ‘new evidence” that Brown is guilty and deserved to be
shot. Though not one time did Officer
Wilson even get around to explaining why he kept firing at a wounded man who
was running away and not guilty of any crime anyhow- - except, of course, for
jay-walking. Officer Wilson, witnesses
say, reached through the car window and
tried to strangle Brown or something, because the door hit an object and
bounced back when he tried to open it. Now of course we have this Parliament shooting
in Ottowa, Canada. We were first told
that “a whole team of terrorists” were involved in some terrorist conspiracy -
- or something first at the war memorial, and then inside the Statehouse
itself, where legislators were meeting.
Of course the prime suspect has been “disposed of’ already- - shot
dead. The media rather cleaverly weaves
in stuff about “increased ISIS chatter over the internet”. So, am I to infer that they KNEW about this
shooting ahead of time? The media throws
these little morsels of red meat out there- - and the FOX crowd eats it up-
latching hard on to the slightest thing - - like a leech or something. Well, the truth is that the election is
twelve days away. Now they say that 42%
of women will vote Republican - - which means I guess that 58% of women will
vote democratic. The thrust of this 42% number
seems to be “Women feel comfortable voting republican because they feel safer
with the Republicans with all of these threats to their families out there such
as Ebola and ISIS. No offence but I hope women are not that Stupid to fall for garbage like this - - and be ruled by that feminine notion of fear and insecurity and a need to "find a man to make them feel safe".
Apparently it’s good
news for democratic Senate candidate Grimes in Kentucky because there are a lot
of horse ranchers voting for Grimes- and they are considered a good
bell-weather. And apparently at the
Kentucky capital building one man was walking a giant tortoise with a sign “Hi,
my name is Mitch, and I need your vote”.
Now there is a guy named Ron Johnson who claims that ISIS will
deliberately infect themselves with Ebola and come in this country to infect
everyone. But the thing is you get so
sick and die so quickly- - suddenly suicide bombers are looking better every
day because it least you die suddenly.
Michael Savage delivered a savage attack on those Vets with post
traumatic stress disorder. Michael
Savage calls them all a bunch of whimps and panty wastes who can’t take a
little discomfort and “occasional sadness over losses” and the like. Savage just dismisses the whole PTSD problem
saying that we are all turning into a bunch of hypochondriacs who reach for
medication and can’t tough it out- - and of course the government holds our
hand and gives us money and tells us it will be all right. “I was trained to fight depression” and he
says PTSD is a “celebration of weakness”.
One must resist the temptation to wish that something bad would happen
to Michael Savage to “teach him a lesson” or something. This would be unchristian- - and we should
not engage in it.
Mike Papentonio was
just on with Hartman. Rick Scott’s fraud
against Medicare runs into the billions of dollars- but I’ve heard somehow he
didn’t have to pay the 1.7 billion dollar fine levied against him but left that
chore to others. He has secret deals
with oil drillers and natural gas frackers, but won’t let anyone see his finances,
because he tells everyone they are in a blind trust controlled by his
wife. 25 years ago a guy like Rick Scott
and his corruption would have been all over the headlines, but the media
protects people like him these days. I
still don’t understand how all of the women of Florida think he is “creepy” and
yet Rick Scott is still in a dead heat with Charlie Christi. High priority races for me are getting rid of
Scott Walker and this Robertson guy of Kansas, Rick Scott and preventing people
like Abott of Texas and Rouner of Illinois from ever getting power. Mike Papentonio then went on to indict the
whole US Supreme Court as just a bunch of political republican hacks, with no
sense of jurisprudence or legal precedent whatsoever. It’s just more of the governmentally gloomy
times we live in. We have this so called
“austerity program” and yet it’s penny wise and pound foolish. Because when we slash the budgets of the SEC
and IRS and justice departments- we can’t go out and catch big time tax cheats-
so the government is denied billions of tax revenue. Mike believes that all of this was by
design. Of course insurance companies
are finding new ways to continue to rip off their clients- - - using legal
loopholes. A big thing is this notion of
not dropping people for pre existing conditions- - the insurance companies have
a whole new bag of legal tricks.
The President made a really dumb statement
today saying that these photo ID requirements are not meant to restrict Black
people. I guess he said they would have
absolutely no effect on Black and poor and youth voter turn-out but if anything
these would be higher. It’s the dumbest
remark since President Ford stated that Poland was not under communist
oppression in 1976. Of course these
measures will depress black and the poor voter turnout. That’s why they were enacted, and they have
admitted this publicly. But Rush is
looking for any needle in a haystack, and he found one in this remark. However I am in agreement with Rush that any
ideas of Monica Luinsky surfacing at this time would help Hillary as a
“sympathetic character” is ludicris.
It’s like re-opening an old sore point with a lot of voters including
me. I wish she would just go away, and
just try and state her big come-back (if that’s what she wants) at a more
opportune time. Right now it’s almost
time for Norman Goldman. There are
eight & a half days till I get paid.
This is October 23,
2014 and we are officially in the sign of Scorpio now. I did not post the previous two days. For me this has been a long week. My cold, as bad as it already was with tons
of mucus and such- - like a Stephen King disease- - turned into a full fledged
case of the Flu last night. Today I
hope to get more rest and not be as active as I have been the previous two
days. I got my turkey sandwich with meds
and this was my last anti-biotic, which is an oxy-moronism in itself- - with a
viral onslaught. And the funniest thing
is I think I may be getting a chronic cough- - which would be really strange. Last night I was splashing water on my face
and head to cool off, before the Adville kicked in. Last night it was the KC Royals beating the
SF Giants in the waterfall stadium. Even
before they developed a big lead over the Giants, there was this spirit in the
air like the Royals were going to have a big night. KABC did not even mention the World Series on
Tuesday and I completely let it slip by and missed the whole first game, not
tuning in once. Obviously if a news
outlet deems to mention a live event on another station, everybody will turn
the dial. The ABC game shows were
on. Bill turned it to KCOP- then told me
I could change it- and I went to “Arrow” on KTLA and “Reign” was at nine, but I
was so dogged tired I soon retired. I
slept more peacefully than the night before and woke at a quarter after six- -
meaning less time to wait before breakfast.
Today I really did get the large buck fifty cup of coffee at the bakery,
as long as I paid a dollar fifty the day before for a medium. I got my medication when I came in with the
coffee from outside. We had Cheerios for
breakfast followed by a skinnier omlette than usual and toast and butter and
jelly. Then Augustine gave me a second
portion of Cheerios and milk and juice.
I don’t know why but I was glad to have it.
