Week of July 26, 2009 - August 1, 2009

Hysteria as the Tool of the Right-Wing-Idiotic


The hysterical party vesus the non-hysterical (possibly lobotomized?) party.

(I mean wouldn't it be nice if the Democrats could show something beyond behavior akin to frontal lobotomies and get MAD about SOMETHING? ANYTHING? Like eight years of Rove-Cheney-Bush and the mess it has left us in? Like bonuses with public money? Gosh, wouldn't it be great if Obama would even MENTION this...except then it would highlight the fact that if they were so appalled by the last eight years, why are they just bitching about it now? Why didn't they do something about it then?).

The idea of living in a country for the rest of my entire life and having to endure what is now a well-established method of the right wing exhausts me. The method is HYSTERIA, as if you have not noticed. This is what they are hysterical about:

Obama is taking our guns.

Obama was born in a foreign country and his birth certificate was forged.

We don't mind our taxes going to corporations and banks but fire will rain from the heavens if we actually get something for our tax dollars, like health care.

Obama's health care plan includes the clubbing of little old ladies with baseball bats.

Is this it now? The state of political (no, this is not even political), utterly empty brain dead dialogue in America is putting right-wing circus freaks on televsion and the radio where they spew ridiculous hysterical spittle from their mouths in an effort to get the most stupid of our nation riled up?

I keep thinking this is going to stop eventually but I don't think it is. As long as media outlets offer these subhumans forums to behave like this, it will never stop. The result will be the ever lowering of the bar in this country for intelligence. ( Talk to any 23 year old and you will be able to confirm that our national education system is in fact, in deep trouble).

There is one thing I am nearly hysterical about and that is these hysterical right wing idiots  may never go away. The Swift Boating of critical and important national issues will be what we get for the rest of our lives now. Or more apt, I will have to work to avoid these right wing idiots for the rest of my life. Great.

Cultural evolution in America is done then if this is it. We topped out. It's all downhill from here. The left is too intent on policing itself instead of showing any courage and leadership and as Bill Maher has said, the left is now the new right while the right has gone insane. My experience is insane people are locked up and/or treated. They aren't given television shows where they appeal to people just like them until they are a hysterical writhing mass of ignorance but this is the goal of the right wing now. Create a hysterical writhing mass of hatred. Dr. Tiller. This is the tragic consequence of right-wing hysteria which as far as I can tell has no checks at all. So the idea of this as the modus operandi of our media and nation exhausts and alarms me. It will never stop. For every Rush Limbaugh, there are three more and each will receive a million dollar a year contract.

Their actions are hysterical, hate-filled, and destructive. And where are the checks?

There are none.

If this is it now, then be afraid, be very afraid, in fact, feel free to get hysterical about it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Arnold: drill baby drill and go ahead and kill the baby


This isn't about any damn budget for God's sake or maybe it is but is there nothing so obscene as agendas contaminating a real issue? I mean, can't you guys take your agendas OUTSIDE right now and think of the common good or is what I just said no longer in your vocabulary? Arnold, you're confused. You are very very confused. You are in over your head dude and failing miserably. Grasping at straws and these are vindictive straws. Straws that you want to wack someone over the head with and by God, you are. You are wacking the only safety net many people have left. You're killing the baby Arnold so your buddies in the oil companies can drill off the Santa Barbara coast. Threaten the dwindling health and safety of our kids but for God's sakes, don't raise the taxes on the goddamned corporations in this state--namely the oil companies but in fact, hand them the right to drill off our coasts. You f-ing bastard. Like I said, can your own baby, as in your GOP agenda drawn from the Newt era which we all thought was dead and gone, and put it OUTSIDE the door? It's your baby Arnold and you coddle it far more than any real child. You love it more than any real child. We want you to starve your agenda baby Arnold but your agenda includes protecting "da citizens of Caleeforneyea from new taxes." Yea couch what is corporate welfare in populist terms. Great strategy but considering how dire the circumstances, it makes you seem the heartless meathead you are.

And the  sad thing is people are appealing to Maria to talk some sense into you. Appealing to your Democrat Kennedy laden wife...who says she has to stay out of the whole damn affair.

Does anyone at all get that we are now thinned out to the gills? That you keep coming to us for more money and we don't have any more? A giant ATM machine? Is this what the middle class WAS to all of you once? Well, the well is dry.

Just a week or so ago, our local power company, Pacific Gas and Electric said it was going to raise our rates.

Does anybody get we are thinned out to the gills?

So our governor who won't touch raising taxes on the oil companies, slaughters the already thin safety net of the citizens who voted for him. He won't raise taxes on the oil companies.

He won't raise taxes on the oil companies. He won't raise taxes on the oil companies.

But he isn't opposed to killing the baby.

 

This is what happens when ideology contaminates the real world. People get hurt.
