Budget veto and FISA train wreck in DC.

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

People I think I am in a mild state of shock this morning, too stunned for excessive profanity even. I know, a sad day. But on the other side of the coin, this news is of such an absurd nature that profanity and half-coherent speech seems to be the only way of properly expressing the deep-seated, resentful, bitter, disgusted, and black fucking anger that I feel at the moment.

Yet I find myself without the heart this morning. At any rate why don’t we move on to see what the supercilious minions of Cheney have managed to do now. How have the members of the Republican Party managed to abuse and dishonor the Constitution today?
First and foremost, the FISA act of 1978 has officially been gutted. Both parties decided that it would be fun to draw and quarter the bill in the name of national security. Don’t ask me why because I don’t fucking know. It seems that the arrogance and scorn of our elected officials is perpetually unchecked. Good work for both the House and the Senate, why did the Democratic Party work with such slavish ardor to obtain the majority? They haven’t bothered to do anything beneficial yet. My bad, they somehow weaseled a victory in the water department. So sorry to have slandered your useless, spineless, cowering character my fellow Democrats.

So thanks to our painfully weak liberal party we now have an anemic and nearly perished version of the FISA bill of 1978. For those of you who don’t know what that is (and if you don’t know, do me a favor and go play in oncoming traffic), it was a bill drafted to protect certain freedoms we as Americans enjoy. Small, insignificant things like making a court order mandatory when the government wants to stick their greedy fucking fingers in your personal affairs. Fourth Amendment shit. Nothing overly important. At least that is how the 110TH Congress viewed the matter. Did I mention that the Democratic Party has the majority right now? I did? Oh, good, just wanted to make sure.

Second on the list of depressing, sobering, dismal fucking actions out of Washington D.C. is the latest Veto from President McBrainless. A $606 billion dollar spending bill for such disposable things like education and health and labor programs for the current fiscal year, arbitrarily received the ‘fuck off’ veto stamp from our caring imbecile of a President. But the GOOD news is that on the same day (and most likely within five minutes of the veto) Bushit signed a $471 billion DOD bill, which funds regular Pentagon operations. Note, I said ‘regular’ operations, this bill does NOT include spending for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Pretty cool right? I know I’m happy seeing my tax dollars put to blowing the living shit out of third world nations. I mean who in their right mind would ever want to see some helpful, pleasant, extremely useful social reform programs here in their own country? That’s just crazy people.

I’m out people. Time to go pound aggression out at the gym. Do me a favor though and read the two stories though, and publish the living shit out them. Veto story. FISA story.

Out.

Hillary Clinton reduced to hurling insults.

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

People, don’t get me wrong, I don’t hold any particular grudge with Hillary because she is a she. For same reason, I don’t hold any reservations about her candidacy. However, I hold several reservations about her candidacy because of what she says, does and has done. Just the same for the other presidential candidates.

The latest bout of Democratic stupidity and inane quibbling comes as Hillary Clinton accuses John Edwards of acting like Bush. This in response to something that Edwards said about Hillary.

Enter stage left, John Edwards’ comments regarding the Hillary campaign:

“George Bush goes to events that are staged, where people are screened, where they’re only allowed to ask questions if the questions are favorable to George Bush and set up in his favor,”

Now you must keep in sharp fucking focus what made Edwards make that statement. Hillary was speaking at Grinnell College, and naturally, her appearance made the school newspaper. What caught Edward’s attention, and would have caught mine as well, was a student’s account of being pulled aside and asked to present a specific question. Hmmm, that really does sound like that idiot in the Oval office now. I could be mistaken though.

So what does our fine presidential nominee respond with? She accuses John Edwards of being like Bush. Why you ask? Well, the Senator was kind enough to explain.

“What George Bush does is attack Democrats and divide the country. Senator Edwards’ campaign resembles that more and more every day.” Spoken by the Senator herself. In response to an accusation of Republiwhore strategy. Now, in my fucking opinion, Edwards is right and Clinton is wrong. Edwards is not dividing the country anymore than Clinton, or Obama or any of the other candidates’. She just doesn’t like being called on a bullshit tactic. If only it weren’t for that free press thing, she just might have made it out of there clean.

However, Clinton said she had no idea that her staffers were doing such things. Such a practice will not be tolerated. Unless of course you count the other guy who said he was told to present a specific question. Oh yeah, and Obama also accused Clinton of the same thing Edwards’ did. So Hillary, why aren’t you throwing insults at Obama? Don’t want to be seen as the candidate that might offend a black man? Coward.

People, do yourselves a favor and vote for Edwards this year, don’t let Hillary become our next president. She is just as fucking crooked as Bush.

Out.

Privacy at the White House…but nowhere else.

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

Okay people, call me fucking stupid if you want, but I just don’t understand the latest round of pulpy, stinking shit spewing out of the White House. Just yesterday, I put up a post regarding privacy laws here in America. In short some cock cuddling fucking reject named Donald Kerr stated that Americans needed to ‘redefine privacy’, which really means that the pompous, assramming, bastards in charge are tired of having to deal with all those pesky laws that prevent them from getting what they want right fucking now.

So today I’m reading the news and I run across a story involving a judge who has ordered the White House to hold all e-mails. I guess Prince George and Kaiser Cheney have been making their nasty little e-mails go *poof*, and as you might imagine, they aren’t allowed to do that…

Five million e-mails actually. I don’t think I’ve sent that many e-mails in my entire fucking life. Do these godless fucking cockstains actually do anything but stare at Outlook all goddamn day? Back to the point now, our fine Republipuke leaders have stopped archiving their e-mails as well, WAYYYYYY back in 2003. And the White House isn’t providing any explanation as to why they stopped archiving (expect of course the very clear, but unspoken message of “because we can, that’s why, so take your laws and fuck off!”), unless you count the bullshit excuse of ‘we don’t know why the archives ceased, but we are looking into the problem and will find an answer.’ Right. Assholes.

Yet what really happened to all those e-mails isn’t as important as the main point of things here. In this country when a person or a company is subpoenaed, or told by a lawfully appointed judge of the US court system, they are supposed to by law provide requested information to the appropriate institution. But many companies, and our current assclown of a Presidunce seem to be able to ignore those trite little laws that the rest of us have to obey. And that my friends, is wrong, wrong in so many ways…I could be here until the end of fucking time trying to list them. Furthermore, that pandering fucking shithead Donald Kerr seems to think that only the lower 99% of Americans should redefine privacy. Obviously the White House is immune to such invasive practices. How exactly Mr. Kerr, do you propose to explain this one to people like me? And I ain’t gonna fucking buy the cheap, tired, worn out excuse that companies and government agencies are immune for reasons of national security! At least do me the favor of finding a new excuse. I’m bored with the old one.

Well people, I recommend you raise seven kinds of hell to your Senators and Representatives regarding this ‘rethinking privacy’ shit. I also recommend taking a shit on the White House lawn if you’re close enough to DC. Alright, later days people.

Out.
