It feels good to be home! And, I use the word home on purpose because I feel more at home here than just about anywhere else. :D
It's time for SPARK! Some people might have more in common with Hitler than what they thought. This guy does his communicating old OLD school! Finally, crunch a bunch for this guy on October 1 - a national sparking hero as far as I'm concerned!
Let's Countdown...
#5 "Occupy Wall Street" AKA "Pepper Spray Brutality" - The protests surrounding Wall Street are into their 10th day, and it looks like it took some NYPD pepper - spraying some defenseless unarmed penned in women for the event to finally see a glimmer of national spotlight. Well, the old saying DOES go, "If it bleeds, it leads." Kelly Heresy was pepper sprayed on Saturday; he's been protesting on Wall Street. Before Saturday, many of the protestors took great pains to not cause problems for the NYPD because they are among those being horribly affected by the $hitacular economy, too. Mr. Heresy's not concerned by a supposed lack of a coherent message & subsequent media coverage. Karen McVeigh works for the Guardian & has been covering the Occupy Wall Street protests. The officer who pepper - sprayed the young women might be involved in another civil case.
#4 " 'Stop Complaining'" AKA "Base Complaint" - President Obama told the Congressional Black Caucus to "stop complaining" the other night. Uh, complaining about what? Complaining about what's going on in Washington, DC? Complaining that he's not done enough for the African - American community as POTUS he being half African - American? I haz some confused. OK, having listened to the end of his speech, I still haz teh confused. Rep. Maxine Waters & Emmanuel Cleaver aren't terribly thrilled but have backed away from their not being thrilled. Now, they are saying that President Obama was merely caught in the moment off script. Hm...Again, having been off the news grids for a few days, I don't know what to think. David Drucker's going to maybe tell me what to think; good luck on that score! ;D He thinks Saturday's message from President Obama to the CBC was to stop complaining to him & about him & get behind him in going against the bat$hitters hoping to replace him next year. President Obama also had some strong words about the aforementioned passengers in the GOBP clown car. Didn't he mention about Governor Secession denying climate change while his state was burning? Yep, he did; thanks for the confirmation, Keith! President Obama also talked up the warm fuzzy audiences at GOBP debates. So, they booed a gay service member the other night? Has someone subsequently asked the aforementioned booers how many tours they've done in $hit holes all over the world?! Mr. Drucker thinks President Obama's too early in what he called "direct campaigning." I could not disagree more; if anything, President Obama may have waited too long & let the GOBP nearly take this country to the brink of further disaster by trying to placate people who never had any intention of working with him anyway. It doesn't matter who the GOBP nominee; anyone on that GOBP "debate" stage who does not immediately disassociate themselves from the hateful actions & words of their audience just stokes the will to do more of it.
"Time Marches On!" - BTW, for you non - "Hoosiers" in the audience, Keith mentioned Allen County in regards to Johnny Appleseed; that's the Fort Wayne, IN area way the spark up north hell & gone from me. ;) Some Italian bride had a hell of a veil on her gown! $HIT! A dude in Tel Aviv has decided to ride a unicycle across the top of bottles. And, if he ever does it, SO WHAT! I've seen cycling accidents during Hubby's collegiate cycling career before he became Hubby that put the "time marches on" cyclists to SHAME! ;D
#3 "What Ailes You?" AKA "Tall Tales from Ailes" - Jabba the Ailes insists FAUX News is not going to be so ideological & more kind and gentle. Was it the same FAUX News that sponsored the "debate" the other night where a member of the military was BOOED??!! Our Great Orange Satanic Leader - looking mighty spiffy! - gets Jabba the Ailes duty. FAUX News & Jabba the Ailes wants Mittens Romney to be the GOBP nominee. Well, don't hold your breath on that. It doesn't sound like Markos ain't real crazy about Howard Kurtz. AND, it doesn't sound like Mr. Falafel & the Mannity sit next to each other at FAUX employee meetings. ;D
WPITW - Joe McGinnis gets a mention after claiming Keith cancelled an appearance & other lovely comments about him and NPR. Keith doesn't like his book about $aint $arah from Wasilla. FL Governor Rick Scott & others are cheering those losing their jobs. STAY CLASSY! A police chief in AL wants offenders to go to church or jail.
#1 "Prohibition" - Wing nuts have been making life "interesting" for a long damn time. ;D Ken Burns gets to talk up his documentary in studio! Look at those Anti - Saloon League chics! They might not be so pi$$ed if they enjoyed an occasional strawberry daiquiri. :D As most of us all know, prohibition worked about as well in curbing booze as the war on drugs has worked on curbing drug use.
