Government Shutdown

OK. CAPS LOCKED. DOES TELEVISION GET TRITE. WHY DO PEOPLE OVER 60 STICK TO FOX NEWS. THEY ARE FROM A DIFFERENT GENERATION. BEING CONDESCENDING ISNT PRODUCTIVE. SAVYINESS(MY SPELLING BITCH) DOES NOT WIN A DEBATE. WHO ARE THEY TALKING TO. THE REPUBLICANS I MEAN. DO THEY SPEAK TO A CROWD THAT WANTS TO NULLIFY WHAT MAJORITY OF AMERICANS VOTED FOR? THE OPPOSITION ALWAYS SEEMS IMPATIENT. YES WE WANTED BUSH TO LEAVE. BUT WE(LIBERALS) LET THE PROCESS(POLITICAL) PLAY OUT AND RUN IT'S COURSE. WE DIDNT SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT. ALTHOUGH THAT MAY BE DUE TO THE SPINELESS REID. AT LEAST BOENHER, THOUGH FORCED. STOOD HIS GROUND. WE'LL SEE HOW LONG. OBAMA IS A SPINELESS MAN. WE'LL SEE WHAT COMPROMISE HE MAKES.

Does anybody know how???

so im back to post after a loooooong time off..i see that some of my links have expired for the stories i have written..can someone tell me how to remedy this..how

DEMOCRATS GIGGING THERE OWN RAVE AGAIN!!

the one, main reason i was hesitant about voting for Obama was his hesitatncy to fight back when punched. granted he did have the heoric news confernece to push back the scurilous innuendo about his relationship to reverned wright, but for the most part until the last few months of the democratic nominatin proces he was always late to the fight when it came to sticking up for himself, with the same tenacity of force as the punch he recieved, when it came to protectig himself against attacks from other democratic opponets, namely hilary clinton. my vote leaned towards hilary, not that my state at the time PA had a say in nomintating the demoratic canidate, thats a grudge for another time, but in the debate in my head around that time i was fearful that obama was to nice and timid to fight in the modern political areana. that he was too rational, that is to say, that he was still under the impression that a rational argument was a suffecient way to gain support for his ideas or that a rational rebuttal to criticism from republicans was indeed enough to sheild himself form attacks. the rational in politics today is dying a slow death merely look at cheney or fox news. i still think hilary would have been a stronger candidate and president when it comes to taking on the republicans and fighting back at the nonsense that fox news spews. do u think hilary would have been mostly silent if some sort of birther movement had arisen around her. i can say with confidence that she would have said something out of her own mouth and continued to fight the nonsense until opinion polls gave her side of the argument a greater percnetage of support. the same with death panels and the like. sometimes a president has to say things themselves about stories swirling out in the politicl ether in order to debunk them. in this sense i see obama as a john kerry type who when faced with swift boats didnt speak up fast enough and by the time he did it was too late. you see in this age of media manipulation and media complicency ideas and stories that would have in the past stayed on the fringes and in the margins are given legitmacy by fox news and drudge. for some reason democrats dont get that reality or are unwilling to fight back(i havestrong suspicions why they dont fight back but that is for another time). obama just doesnt have it in him to fight back at least not to this point. what republicans have figured out is that the electorate likes a brawler, case in point cheny, rove fox news, etc.. until the democrats figure that out, they will forever be political chumps and left dumbfounded when events like losing Mass senate seats happen. it happens when for a whole year we see our democratic president and majorities in the house and senate bow down to republican bullying, succumbing at every turn to republican threats and out manuvered by republican narrative. the political backlash against democrats in 2010 will come not form there ideas or even there idealoigies, but from the voracity of narrative which lacks any roar or power and seems impotent and ineffectual at every turn..

what change

its been awhiel since ive posted. ive been really busy with school, lerning the strategies of becoming an effective social worker, and work, empowering recovering addicts. alot has gone on though in the workd of politics. dems took the congress. bush has fianlly come undone at least in the polls. but yet what has really changed. if there has been some change then please point this out to me. the dems came to power. but so what. what have they done. absolutely nothing. wheres the big investigations into the war and the bush whitehouse. what policy changes have they enacted. so they raised the minumum wage or have they. i mean the last i heard about that was it was still being negotiated in the senate. so baiscally we got the same ol same ole. the dems promised change and we got none. they are so timid and afraid of suggesting bold change or outlining bold agendas. and they really cant because tehy are handcuffed to big money lobbyists liket the repubs. the older i get teh more i see that change, bright colored bold change doesnt come from washington, and if it does it comes only incrementally, if we are lucky. we need a third party. we need to take teh money out of politics. we should look to Maine or Arizona to see how to fix political campaign financing. until we get teh money out of the game and give every vote signifigance and not just those with money having teh political clout we will never have a true democracy. where has teh call for social justice gone.....its really frustrating.

persoanl pontification about mainstream news

for those of us who are interenet news junkies like me, have u ever noticed how the cable news sites like cnn and msnbc hve as the headline story on their websites fluff. like today on the 18th of march theres a bunch of protest going on around the world and especaially here in the U.S. but they run the molosivic funeral mourners parade instead. i mean how many of us have thought about milosovic more than twice in the last 7 years. these sites just like their cable stations are jokes. u go on the popular political blog sites around the web whether its a liberal or conservative site and u'll see what really matters to people who are actually interested in the news nowadays. yet u rarely see these issues on mainstream outlets they continue the fluff. Good night ang Good luck was a decent movie although it was blantant leftist propaganda. but the main thing i took from the movie was the way televison news, or rather mainstream media conduct news. its profit based and politically afraid to run the meaty substantive stories that if offered a choice the american peole would i believe choose to hear about, like when congress passes anti american anit security legislation. thank god for the internet. if u count on the nightly news or cable tv new or maintstream newpapers for ur peek into whats really going on in the world then u are mentally blind, not because ur not a smart person but because they dumb u down in an all consuming consensus trance like 1984. its been happening since televisoin was invented and gained popularity. we've been living withn the Matrix all along. time to go play some rage against the machine. Good night and Good luck

ol ashcroft and bloodsuckers


good timing

poor ashcroft. to his credit he probably was planning opening a lobbying group with a bunch of bloodsuckers long before the abramoff scandal hit, but to go ahead with it shows how souless politicians are. he wants to get his piece of the pie while he still can. i guess all i can say is get ur rebel on ol ashy. i mean i guess most of us if we had the know how would go to washington and rob the town blind and get favors based only on old connectionas. imean if i could be a crook and make mountains of money and get away with it like the rest of washington i would too. im only human.

does jesus love money


get ur hands out of my pocket

its funnyhow a christian outlet can bemoan a redistributive vicory. i thought christianity was about charity. i guess not if it comes out of pat robert' pocket or jerry fallwell's pocket.lord kknows they need a bigger house or another yacht. they can't afford to pay larger rates of taxes that would then go to benifit the needy in this country. its odd how the christian movement has progressed and moved its followers to the republican party when the republican party stands againt everything that is christian, especially on econmoc isssues, but yes even on social issues as well. and in this article we see how the left has been weakened by the right's ability to frame issues. instead of calling social programs 'entitlements' how about calling them releif programs or security programs that keep seniors from living on the streets after they've spent their lives working and laboring for a large mulit national , mulit billion dollar company that up and decides to cancel pension funds. or call student loans an advocacy program that help pursuade under privielged young people attend college. anyway its very ironic that a outlet called the cristian science monitor would bemoan redistribution. i guess u can never have tooo much money in heaven

mc rove and the new dream


the pendulum of sleep

and so the master of ceremonies is dreaming it all up again. the narrative that will help u sleep well at night and help the GOP retain control of the houses in the 06 elections. i cant wait for the politiacal season to heat up. will the electorate buy the same crap that were sold since 2002, that the republicans are keeping us safe. but the more interesting to story to watch unfold will be the democrats counter narrative. all of the bad new of 2005 is waiting to be cut and pasted into 30 second political ads and critical sound bytes. to a rational observer the GOP doesnt have a chance in hell maintaining the congress in the election. but then again to rational observers bush had no chance of winning reelection in 2004. so let the games begin. hopefully teh democrates wont fumble the ball on the one yard line. and lets see what kind of swift boat group comes out of the wood work this time. or is that a tactic for only presidential elections. lets get rewady to RUMBLE...
