Bombing Google to promote the facts

The fascists who insists upon sticking their noses up every woman's uterus have managed to get their screed up to the top of Google Search, so we are fighting back.

For more info, go here.

Anti-abortion ideologues beware: I'm promoting objective, factual information on:



You can too. Join me in Bombing for Choice.

Q & A: Our Omnipotent President

Q. Can the president spy on Americans without a warrant?
A. The president has to spy on Americans without a warrant! We're at war, and the president's gotta defend America, and he's not gonna wait for a permission slip from a judge or a senator or America to do it!

Q. That's just the kinda tough, no-nonsense thinking I like in a de facto dictator! Now some crazy people say the president broke some silly old laws like FISA and the National Security Act and the Fourth Amendment. Are these crazy people crazy?
A. They sure are! Maybe those laws worked back in 1978 back when Leonid Brezhnev was snortin coke with Ayatollah Khomeini and groovin to the hits of the Bee Gees, but in today's dark and dangerous times they just aren't enough.

Q. Things sure have changed since the innocent days of mutually assured destruction! But is it legal for the president to ignore the law?
A. Maybe not according to plain ol stupid ol regular law, but we're at war! You don't go to war with regular laws, which are made outta red tape and bureaucracy and Neville Chamberlain. You go to war with great big strapping War Laws made outta tanks and cold hard steel and the American Fightin Man and WAR, KABOOOOOOM!

Q. How does a War Bill become a War Law?
A. It all begins with the president, who submits a bill to the president. If a majority of both the president and the president approve the bill, then it passes on to the president, who may veto it or sign it into law. And even then the president can override himself with a two-thirds vote.

There's much more and it just gets more and more delicious....

This is entertaining.... and curious.

Twist and shout....

You know, maybe I am just a lot more like a man (on the inside... only!) than even I ever thought, but I am glorying in the schadenfreude of watching W (for Weasel) twist in the wind.

And make no mistake about it. He is twisting like Chubby Checker at a beach party with Annette Funicello. (Yes, I'm so old I remember those movies.)

What else could explain his unexpected and practically unheard of press conference? Oh, how I so wished that camera had swung into his smug nose.

Yes, they are twisting because they can no longer spin. Just about the time they get themselves twisted halfway around a spin, they get slapped back the other way. Oh happy happy joy joy!

When a man of the caliber of John Murtha speaks the plain truth that what is happening in Iraq is now nothing other than civil war, and even Scary Cheney can speak no ill of him, then this Imperial White House has a worry or two.

Bush reminds me of Captain Bligh and I think he is just about to know what its like when the ship of state goes all mutiny on his ass. Truly, his nearly gasping as he ever so more weakly calls for "staying the course" is nothing but folly.

Piss off big oil and logging - Support Industrial hemp

Hemp is not marijuana. It contains only the most minute trace amounts of THC, most all of which is removed in processing. Hemp was grown and produced as a product important to our national security as early as colonial America and as late as WWII.

Hemp may be used to produce hundreds of products from omega-3 oil supplements to hair care products to clothing to rope and twine. The list is massive.

However, most importantly to the present, Hemp can replace products which currently ravage our land, our air and our bank accounts. Synthetic products currently manufactured using petroleum such as plastics can be replaced by this cheap, natural material which is grown with no pesticides to further harm the environment. Paper, particle board, and many other related items for which the logging industry strip our earth can be replaced by hemp. Furthermore, growing hemp actually cleans the air by consuming carbon in the air which is caused by the use of fossil fuels and exaberated by the removal of the earths forests for unnecessary human consumption on a scale never known before in history.

The US DEA is used as nothing more than an enforcement arm of these anti-humanity industries. The so-called "War on Drugs" spends countless manhours keeping a legitimate product which would benefit our society, our farmers, our communities, our workforce and our earth, illegal instead of spending their efforts on the massive amounts of heroin being imported by the poppy growers in Afganistan now that they are now free to do so. Free to do so via the expenditure of our young men's lives and our tax money.

Speak up, speak out, speak to your elected representatives... Look into it.

Kicking up my toes

and kicking the world in the ass. Stick around and see what I can kick up and feel free to give me a kick if I don't keep up with my posts...

First, I'd like to share a favorite poem by William Blake.

The Garden of Love
I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of the Chapel were shut,
And Thou shalt not writ over the door;
So I turn'd to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore,
And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tomb-stones where flowers should be:
And Priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys & desires.
--William Blake
