Friday M-Vloggin' - - with Bill Hicks

The legendary comic Bill Hicks, dead 15 years now, was one of the best comics of his era. It goes without saying, if he were alive today we would have been blessed with his razor-sharp insight and deadly humor after having endured 8 years of President Chimpy McFlightsuit and Darth Cheney. RIP Bill and thanks for telling it like it is -- and making us laugh at the same time.

Somebody please make them stop . . .

I'm getting so fucking sick of these idiotic, juvenile Obama "Birther" assholes. At some point Obama, the Honolulu Health Department, his family members, and the sane members of Congress and the media need to have a joint, prime-time press conference to once and for all denounce these meth-head fucktards and ask them to put forth their evidence that Obama wasn't born in Hawaii or just finally shut the fuck up!

Presently the "Birfer" ass-clown brigades are being led around by their herd-mentality nose-rings by some bird-brained pest and media attention hog named "Dr." Orly Taitz. Seems the good Doctor is an Orange County, CA dentist who scrounged up a law degree thru a "distance learning course" online - lol - because you know nothing shows integrity and legitimacy more than an internet law degree! She's your typical right-wing thug who has aligned herself with some really sleazy characters to propel her childish obsession with Obama's birth certificate into the mainstream discourse.

Setting aside the Dr. Taitz buffoonery though, how many fucking times must a lie/myth be disproven and debunked before it's dead, Dead, DEAD! and in the grave? Jesus Fooking Christ! -- these same morons are the same hate-filled imbeciles who manufactured and pimped the Bill Clinton murder list stories back in the early 90's after Clinton was elected. Why is anyone in the media lending any credence whatsoever to these creepy people's charges (except Fox "News" and we know why they do it)?

I think some enterprising freshman Democratic Congress person ought to introduce their own House bill requiring that any Congressman who signs on to this bullshit "Birther" legislation, which we all know some GOP congress critter started up just to stir up the rubes, be forced to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt their own citizenship qualifications. If these assholes continue to insist on playing these stupid fucking infantile games -- I say give it right back to them in the same manner.

Anyhow -- a commenter at the first linked article puts all of this inane garbage into the proper perspective better than most:

Where was George W. Bush's birth certificate, Bill Clinton, or George Sr. or gasp, could it be that Ronald Reagan was not born in the US either?, I have never seen any of their Birth Certificates. It is scary, if you are Republican you can start a baseless war, waste 1 TRILLION dollars to destroy a country, drive up oil costs from $36 dollars a barrel to $145 dollars a barrel, be phtographed kissing the Saudi Prince (Where 15 of 19 hijakers on 9/11 came from), and then find any way you can to whine, moan and complain when you cannot rape the poor in the US any longer, go away you cancerous, anti-democratic, anti-civil liberty morons, aren't there some more extra-marital affairs out there waiting on you, or some other scandal.

A-fucking-men to that brother!

You Don't Mess With The Jon-han . . .

Jon Stewart is my hero.

In this clip he deliciously skewers GOP Senator and all-around smug asshole Lindsey Graham of S.C. for his indulgent hypocrisy and smarminess.

Another day, another GOP hypocrite implosion . . .

JACKSON, Miss.

He cast himself as a defender of decency, particularly on television and the Internet, and was among House members urging then-President George W. Bush to declare 2008 "the National Year of the Bible."

Speaking of the bible -- what was that 7th commandment thingy??? Oh yeahhhh -- something about not committing adultery!! That's it! Funny how the Repukes have such a hard time remembering that one, (except when it's Bill Clinton doing it.)

Oh well -- just add to the list one more "Family Values" Republican and former "C" Street (The Family) housemate of John Ensign and Mark Sanford who was also on the nookie take it appears.

Right-wing nuts ratchet up fear-mongering tactics on Health Care debate . . .

There truly is no polite or tactful way to say it -- the Steve Kings and Louie Gohmerts of the world are scumbag, worthless pieces of shit.

To make such bald-faced lying statements on a matter of grave urgency to this nation's financial, spiritual and physical health, all in a vainglorious attempt to run interference for their big campaign donor sugar daddies in the Health Insurance and Pharmaceutical industries is beyond despicable. Just awful, repulsive human beings.

Lesson learned - never bring smarmy smugness to a knife fight . . .

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, one of that rare breed of politician with both intelligence and scruples, makes Grandpa John McCain eat a big ol' shit sandwich in this clip pointing out the obvious fact that the Veteran's Administration is "socialized medicine" as is Medicare and the majority of Americans like both. McCain's stiff laugh and cold smile in response to getting pwned are priceless.

Border War Between U.S. and Mexico Heats Up!

I suppose it's the natural progression of things (Snap snap, grin grin, wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more?) Lol.



Mexico Builds Border Wall To Keep Out US Assholes

Earth to Beck! Earth to Beck!!

Ha Ha! Glenn Beck is truly the moron gift that keeps on giving. Watch Mr. Attentive rant about today's opening hearing on the SCOTUS confirmation of Sonia Sotomayor and specifically about Senators serving up softball questions.

Of course the punchline to the joke is that there were no questions at today's hearing because it's the first day of the hearings which is typically set aside as the day which Senators and the nominee make opening statements only. The actual questioning has yet to start.

Nonetheless, you can count on Fox News and Glenn Beck to not allow an annoying concept like reality to hinder an easy opportunity to stir up their rube viewers. Lol.

Fox News -- They Retort, I Deride!

Tell it like it is . . .

Bravo! Somebody with the actual courage to point out the oh-so-fucking obvious on a national news show and not mince mealy-mouthed words in the process.

And you gotta laugh heartily at MSNBC's faux horror at hearing the term "blow job" mentioned on their network. And specifically the faux apology given at the end by David Shuster stating, "We all say things sometimes when we're passionate that we don't intend, and especially on a dayside family-oriented cable television news network." Yeah David, cuz you know what a terrible thing it would be to offend the sensibilities of those millions of politics oriented 7 and 8 year old munchkins that are watching MSNBC with rapt attention in the middle of a beautiful summer day - LOL!

Anyhow, kudos to Marcy Wheeler for causing the collective media establishment to have a spontaneous aneurysm by actually doing that which the media themselves should be doing to begin with -- speaking bluntly and truthfully to the American people on subjects that are of great importance to the country.

The Alien Invasion of America -- Spiders and Armadillos from Mars?

An Associated Press story from yesterday:

July 12, 2009
Perry's border Web camera program misses goals

Although viewers didn't report much illegal activity, they were active on the site. They sent about 3,900 reports and comments from Feb. 2 to Feb. 8. Dozens said they were confused about whether images were humans or animals.

One report simply read, "armadillo by the water," while another offered some advice.

"Just a word of warning: A moment ago I saw a spider crawl across the top of the camera," the report read. "You might want to try and prevent any webs from being spun across the lens area by treating with repellent or take other measures."

Boy I bet Texans feel much safer knowing their Governor Rick Perry (R) is spending millions of dollars of taxpayer money monitoring the Texas/Mexico border for suspicious Armadillo and Spider activity. LMAO!
