Pollywogs!

So it looks like the rest of the world is finally starting to wrestle with the realization that the United States is spinning out of control with a madman who does not give a fuck at the wheel. Global markets are in decline, the US markets are down 10-15% (actually back to about the same levels they were spring of 2007), and the Fed is clutching at straws trying to ‘prevent a recession’. Record deficit spending, tax cuts, a dollar which has been losing value faster than they can print new bills…

But don’t worry, the rich are doing just fine. Look at ExxonMobile. Most profitable company in the history of mankind last year. You aren’t getting gouged at the pump though, they are making those astronomical profits fair and square. You can trust them. Just like the media.

Speaking of trust, the White House has been doing whatever they can to incite war with Iran. And FUCKING CONGRESS is helping them. Stupid, worthless piles of shit. When will we wake up and remember that the Public is in control of this Republic, not criminals and cunts who we ‘elected’ to a temporary position of representation. FUCK. You can’t tell, but that fuck was filled with as much contempt and derision as possible. The kind of contempt which makes you huck a rock at a corpse hanging at a gas station. The same kind of contempt the White House has for “We the People of the United States“:

“The White House “does not know if any e-mails were not properly preserved in the archiving process,” said the statement by Theresa Payton, chief information officer for the White House Office of Administration. “We are continuing our efforts,” said Payton, whose staff is responsible for the White House e-mail system.

If the e-mails were not saved, the White House might have violated two laws requiring preservation of documents that fall into the categories of federal records or presidential records.

White House spokesman Tony Fratto said that “there is no basis to say that the White House has destroyed any evidence or engaged in any misconduct.”

No basis? Really?

And just in case you had any delusions that this isn’t the New Fascist Republic of America, please re-read the definition of fascism and keep in mind the policies of the last seven years which have stripped the heart out of the Constitution:

“Fascism is an authoritarian political ideology (generally tied to a mass movement) that considers individual subordinate to the interests of the state, party or society as a whole. Fascists seek to forge a type of national unity, usually based on (but not limited to) ethnic, cultural, racial, religious attributes. The key attribute is intolerance of others: other religions, languages, political views, economic systems, cultural practices, etc. Various scholars attribute different characteristics to fascism, but the following elements are usually seen as its integral parts: nationalism, statism, militarism, totalitarianism, anti-communism, corporatism, populism, collectivism, and opposition to political and economic liberalism.”

Yes. The government is suddenly more important than the people? Since when, again? Oh yea, since the New Pearl Harbor…

Mission Accomplished!

2012. The first year the Northern Artic will be ice free, based on the latest data. Global what?

“This week, after reviewing his own new data, NASA climate scientist Jay Zwally said: “At this rate, the Arctic Ocean could be nearly ice-free at the end of summer by 2012, much faster than previous predictions.”

So scientists in recent days have been asking themselves these questions: Was the record melt seen all over the Arctic in 2007 a blip amid relentless and steady warming? Or has everything sped up to a new climate cycle that goes beyond the worst case scenarios presented by computer models?”

Oh. Thank goodness. See, no one actually KNOWS. That is the great thing about science, we can just pretend it is all ok by saying that it isn’t a fact that it is our direct fault the world in ten or twenty years is going to look nothing like the world of today. “How could we know it would be so bad, no one told us, we were helpless to change, it wasn’t our fault” and all the other bullshit that will be paraded out…

This is an interesting compare and contrast between the “US and Iraq” and “China and the US”.

“It’s been eight years now. Eight long years. Sure, initially I was glad when China toppled the Bush regime and executed the “retarded tyrant” as I love to call him. It wasn’t that bad at the start, but as time wore on and I realized they weren’t leaving, it started to gnaw at me.”

Here is an organization I’ve become a member of recently, because of this article:

“Days before the first presidential caucuses in a medical marijuana state, the Marijuana Policy Project today doubled its offer to presidential candidates Rudy Giuliani, John McCain and Mitt Romney to back up their statements opposing medical marijuana with scientific evidence. If any of the candidates can prove his statements are true, MPP will donate the legal maximum of $10,000 to his campaign ($5,000 for the primaries, $5,000 for the general election), plus an additional $10,000 donation to the candidate’s favorite charity.”

Don’t use the your cell phone before bed. Seriously, no lulz here:

‘Published by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Progress in Electromagnetics Research Symposium and funded by the Mobile Manufacturers Forum, representing the main handset companies, it has caused serious concern among top sleep experts, one of whom said that there was now “more than sufficient evidence” to show that the radiation “affects deep sleep”……The people who had received the radiation took longer to enter the first of the deeper stages of sleep, and spent less time in the deepest one. The scientists concluded: “The study indicates that during laboratory exposure to 884 MHz wireless signals, components of sleep believed to be important for recovery from daily wear and tear are adversely affected.”‘

A hacker group declares war on the ‘church’ of scientology. Can fucking Tom Cruise get any crazier or creepier? And how about the brainwashed Katie Holmes? If either of them actually mattered in this current clusterfuck of existence, it would be sorta sad. As it stands, they are the latest flavor to distract and numb you of the truth of the situation.

Ignore the man behind the curtain…

Finally, on a slightly lighter note, a roundabout literally from hell…
