Bat Shit Law of the Day: Republicans & Abortion Again















Once again Republicans prove they are the party of Projection & Hypocriscy. For decades Republicans have been trying to convince the American people that it is the Democrats who want to get into people's personal lives. They say "Democrats want to control your life", the Democrats "want to control what you can & can't do, and run your lives for you."

And for the 100millionth time it is the Republicans trying to pass bills that invade an individuals personal life, and privacy.

Bat Shit Law of the Day: Miscarriages = Prenatal Murder?

http://www.afroam.org/multimedia/photos/4191/bobby_franklin_official_photo-237x300.jpg
A Georgia lawmaker decided to take his Anti-Abortion stance a bit further. He recently purposed to classify Miscarriages as "Prenatal Murder".

State Representative Bobby Franklin (pictured above), has introduced a bill that would make miscarriages a criminal offense. And as stated in the literature of the bill, an offense potentially punishable by death.

You Can't Be This Stupid

http://images.huffingtonpost.com/gen/22927/thumbs/s-DOOCY-large.jpg


So when debating about the TSA possibly swabbing your mouth with a Q-tip when you fly.. Steve Doocy of Fox & Friends found a way to get around it: “all you gotta do is put someone else’s DNA in your mouth.”.  This is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. He must not have even passed 2nd Grade Science Class. Whoever his teacher was for High School Biology should be fired for not failing him.

And what kind of DNA is he talking about.. Does he mean the DNA from saliva, or the DNA from someone's semen..

And now not only is what Steve Doocy said dumb, but disgusting.

What's Really Going On in Wisconsin

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWEI9Ax6LJNRCagCj2yWxKY26pQH5imYH8_WiuoC2fnQ75TnGVqYwub112uTjTZQ0zTJLTIQlneDlyTvDtLIqU30BRG65KQ4F5DSb7cOUDMqF2HOs1od_zNOXFbKHEpZkfF_otNNA4hzyK/s1600/Wisconsin+Protest.jpg
For the past few weeks the lead story occurring in the United States, are the protests in Wisconsin. To "cut back on the budget", Gov. Scott Walker has been pushing the bill that would require Public Union Workers (teachers, cops, fireman) to pay more into their benefits (the less egregious of the two ideas of the bill), and relinquish their Collective Bargaining Agreements (which is outrageous). What that means is that the government is basically allowed to do what it wants to Union Workers. Since the Union Workers wouldn't have the right to negotiate they have no say. This would allow the Government to come in and cut pay to whatever they want, cut benefits without warning, and fire without prior notification. The reason teachers, cops, and firefighters unionized because every time there was a need for "budget cutbacks" some of the most important jobs in the country would be the first to feel the brunt of the "cut back"

But the reason this came about is not because states need to save money, because the average Union Worker makes $47,000 in this country (that's not what's breaking our budgets in each state). It can be summed up by 1 video on Fox News. Although I gave them crap in my post Fox News Gets Owned On Fox News, this time Fox News got it absolutely right. Granted it was Shep Smith, and he is the only reasonable guy on the channel, I have to give credit where credit is due.

Bat Shit Law of the Day: Ban Karma


So Arizona has decided to take action because apparently Secret Terrorist Muslims are taking over the United States, and they are the only ones who notice. Like Arizona, Tennessee has moved forward to ban Shariah Law. Following the Conservative Ideology that all things created/looks like something from the Middle East they will ban it; Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Indiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, and Alaska have all put forth legislation to ban Shariah Law. To be honest I haven't seen Shariah Law in the U.S. But I also think Ronald Reagan was a fuck up as a President. Just obvious things I've noticed that Conservatives haven't.

I digress, Arizona is taking this a step further. Not only will they ban Shariah Law but they will ban the concept of Karma. Really? Karma? Karma isn't even a religion. what bad has come from Karma? It is the idea that the act of Good Deeds lead to Good Results, and Bad Deeds leads to Bad Results. How can you not believe in something like that? Isn't that the whole predication of Christianity (if you are good you go to heaven, if you are bad you go to hell)? Does that mean killing someone now no longer leads to the victims death because Karma has been abolished?

The Capitalist Problem

There is one main problem with Capitalism. That is it has no moral code. This moral code is something that every individual has. While we all have lapses in that code, most of us understand what is right, and what is wrong.We also have a common understanding of how to treat each other.

Capitalism's main objective is money/profits and money has no moral code. It is in fact amoral. This is what leads to the largest problem, an actual Darwinian struggle, that is not even supposed to be Darwinian. Survival of the Fittest for something none of us have control over is downright inhumane.

Billionaire Complains About His Taxes

http://saintpetersblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golisano-tom.jpg
Recently (today). Businessman/Billionaire/Former Owner of The Buffalo Sabers  Tom Golisano went on Fox & Friends to complain that his taxes were too high.

To watch the video and read how absurd what this guy is actually saying, click the jump.

Fox News Gets Owned on Fox News


Give this first video a minute or two to load


Operation Make Wisconsin a Fully Democratic State is almost complete.

In case you cannot hear it the protesters are saying "Tell The Truth" as Fox News is trying to do an on-scene report. I love the fact that they are telling Fox News to tell the truth though. Those 2 words are enemies. It's kind of like mixing the words "Good" & "Herpes".  You could if you wanted to, but they just don't fit together.

Another video where the crowd chants "Fox Lies" while the guy is trying to report


I like how the guy tries to rationalize it by saying this is Fox Business. Basically acknowledging Fox News lies.

The Party of Future Irrelevancy Strikes Again

 http://online.wsj.com/media/Boehner_Cantor_D_20110106154959.jpg
Today is another day where I can have clarity.. No matter how bad Democrats are, they will always be better than the Republicans.

Today the House Republicans are officially pushing H.R. 3 aka "No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act".  Since Jesus told them that abortion is a sin Republicans with the help of a few slimy Democrats have come up with a bill to restrict funding to abortion as much as possible.

Dumbass of the Day Award

And the winner is....................Fox & Friends Host Steve Dooceydoocy_gore
The amount of SMH & Facepalms required to accurately express my feelings toward this tweet are unlimited..

Global Warming doesn't mean that all snow ceases to happen... I feel like these jackasses who deny Global Warming will say no matter what "Hey it's cold, how about that global warming."  Even during droughts it does rain. And just because a tree fell and nobody heard it, it still makes a sound.


http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/11/science/earth/11climate.html

From the New York Times Article: "Climate scientists say that no individual episode of severe weather can be attributed to global climate trends, though there is evidence that such events will probably become more frequent as global temperatures rise. Jeff Masters, a meteorologist who writes on the Weather Underground blog, said that the recent snows do not, by themselves, demonstrate anything about the long-term trajectory of the planet. Climate is, by definition, a measure of decades and centuries, not months or years."

Political Irony of the Day: Tea Baggers Don't Understand History

This sign makes me want to make a dumb tea party sign post..

We all know the Tea Party as our favorite Gun-Toting Conservative friends who have no grasp on history, or well anything for that matter... Except for shotguns, misspelling of simple words, Ted Nugent, and Mullets..

Could it be that the whole resurgence of the tea party is based on not understanding the history of the country they love so much? You would be absolutely right.

A Politician Who Really Fights for the People


 Every time I talk to any one about politics, I get the same types of responses; "They are all corrupt" "They are all bought by corporations" "They don't care about us" "I hate politics because I know they don't work for us"

As an avid follower of politics, while I know most are bought off, not all of them are.

So to my friends who I've talked to about politics, and those who I haven't, who are skeptical of politicians, I will give you one example of a politicians who fights for the people... Representative Anthony Weiner.



Anthony Weiner is a Democratic Representative of New York's 9th Congressional District in the House. His district encompasses parts of Southern Brooklyn and parts of Southern & Central Queens. He has been in Congress since 1999.

I know you still don't believe me, so I will give you video footage after the jump.

Why Obama's Tax Cut Deal Sucked






















Close to a month has passed since Obama signed the new tax code into law. And close to a month later, it still sucks.

I will break down individually why it blows like Kat Stacks at an Album Release party.

Idiots Who Do Not Know What They Are Talking About: Please STFU

So I was recently surfing the Internet, and came across a Glenn Beck clip. This has forced me to re-up this blog. In no way do I condone any of his hate speech, but to provide context to the article, I will post the video.

It is regarding the Three-Fifths Compromise.



This reverts back to the central topic of the post.. "IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP"
