Shook Me All Night!

Took a little side trip away from the political arena Monday nite and went to the rock n' roll arena. Saw AC/DC at the Los Angeles Forum. They sounded great, looked active on stage and sang many favorites. All in all a top notch show - lotsa fun. Here's a sampling (video isn't greatest quality, but hey--it's free--what do you expect?)

Worst Fucking President Ever! EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There's a reason I'm harsh on my Bush adoring conservative friends. Jon Stewart gets right to the heart of the matter in analyzing the exit interview Bush did this past week with ABC's Charlie Gibson. Anybody who watched that interview, and I do include you my conservative friends, and walked away still believing that George W. Bush has been God's gift to America and mankind ---- well ---- you just really need to be violently bitch-slapped until your eyeballs bleed or you finally acknowledge the truth. Sorry for the harshness once again, but the reality of it all is what it is.

Conservatives = Power Mongerers

What is it with conservatives and their penchant for ad hoc despotism? Even the Canadian right-wingers loathe democracy and the will of the people it appears.

GOP losing national popularity contest . . .


I honestly cannot say that this news surprises me in the least:

November 20, 2008

PRINCETON, NJ -- The Republican Party's image has gone from bad to worse over the past month, as only 34% of Americans in a Nov. 13-16 Gallup Poll say they have a favorable view of the party, down from 40% in mid-October. The 61% now holding an unfavorable view of the GOP is the highest Gallup has recorded for that party since the measure was established in 1992.


Well, I'd hate to be presumptuous, but I would venture to guess that the American people's dismal view of the GOP just might have something to do with the fact that the Republican party's leaders started a needless war just because they could, trashed the constitution by spying on American's private communications, abrogated a long-standing treaty related to war conduct, gave the middle finger to the world on efforts to address global climate change, presided over the nose-dive of a once vibrant economy into the worst recession in memory, have allowed the far right fringe religious nuts to hold their party hostage to divisive social wedge issues, and have basically been governing the country in the same fashion that the greedy CEO's and Wall Street robber barons have run their companies.

Couldn't happen to a bunch of bigger pricks if you ask me.

Karma Is A Bitch - And Won By 8 Million Votes . . .


I haven't posted any blog entries for over a week. The reason is simple - - I'm basking in the rhapsodic, luminous glow of the Republican ass-whooping that took place on November 4th.

It's difficult for me to even remotely describe it as gloating in my opinion, for I have reminded my GOP friends and detractors on a few occasions over the past year or so that it's not so much that I'm a die-hard Democrat who would support any Democrat at the drop of a dime and regardless of their stances. Truth is, I have not donated a single penny to a Democratic candidate or Democratic organization. I've not volunteered to work actively at promoting the Democratic party or any Democratic candidate. What I have done, and wholeheartedly admit to doing and will continue to do, is to vociferously oppose and expose the Republican party, as it exists in it's current form, as the fascist, lying, democracy-loathing sons of bitches and fundamentalist Christian tools that they are. Guilty as charged.

What makes Obama and the Dem's annilhation of the GOP on November 4th all the more righteous is the fact that the mind-numbingly vicious Republican goons went to extreme lengths and efforts to label Barack Obama as a Muslim, an America hater, an appeaser and friend of terrorists, a socialist and communist, and a corrupt Chicago politician. They even accused him of wanting to teach sex education to kindergartners for Christ's sake! So gee -- how'd that plan work out for you guys? I guess not so good considering that the American voters said, "Ya know what, all that's not so bad, at least he ain't a fucking lying Republican." ---- MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! MUAHA!!

To all my despondent, bed-wetting, right-wing Republican friends --- all I have to say is --- fucking get over it.

Obamamania --- No Known Cure!


Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are


Hahaha! Hey, at least liberals haven't lost the ability to laugh at and poke fun at themselves. The conservatives are still trying to figure out why Fox's "The 1/2 Hour News Hour" wasn't as funny as Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert - LOL! And god forbid if one of their own were to make fun of their movement -- they'd instantly label them a traitor and petition to send them to Gitmo. Poor, humorless bastards.

Boo!! Rashid Khalidi! Boo!! Happy Halloween . . . From John McCain & Sarah Palin



Keith Olbermann, god bless his soul, steamrolls, pisses on, shits on and then unceremoniously tosses in the dumpster the last-ditch, putrid effort by McCain and Palin to smear Obama as a Muslim/Terrorist sympathizer.

I refer to the Rashid Khalidi accusation.

I could effortlessly expend voluminous blog space explaining this non-issue in great detail, but it wouldn't have the visceral impact that Olbermann's demolition job has.

So take it away Keith-O!

Lying Their Way to Victory! (hopefully not)




This clip is a pretty fair summation of what the McCain/Palin campaign has been all about --- smearing by innuendo and lying. Their conservative ideology is bankrupt. They don't want to represent all of America, just the "Pro-Americans" (right-wing Republicans). They have no ideas, no vision, no heart -- nothing, nada, zilch. Just fear mongering and character assassination. It's time for change. Yes we can.

Big Business CEO Lies About Obama Small Business Tax Policy. . .


FactCheck.org demolishes conservative ad which is peddling lies about Obama's tax policies for small businesses.

Turns out the financier behind the ad is a right-wing pharmaceutical industry CEO who has ties to the McCain campaign.

I wonder if Joe the Plumber reads FactCheck.org? It might behoove him to do so since he seems confused about how the Obama/Biden tax policies might affect his pipe dream (pun intended) to purchase his boss' plumbing business some day in the distant future.

Teddy Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan Were Socialists!




Former Nixon, Ford, and Reagan presidential advisor and Republican David Gergen educates the rubes who are bobble-head nodding in unison over the charges from McCain and Palin that Obama is a "socialist."

Gergen quite correctly points out that two of the most revered Republican Presidents of the 20th century, Theodore Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan, by virtue of their tax policies, were socialists too.

Good job David. Not that the irony of it will penetrate the plasma force-field of stupidity that the conservative rubes have enveloped themselves in, but it gets an "A" for effort in my book.
