No Photos Of Dead Animals, Please
I'm not going to run any pictures of the dead/dying animals.
Yesterday on CNN, they showed a cardboard box full of oil clumps.
Then one of the oil clumps winked and only then did I realize
those clumps were giant, dying birds and it made me sick.
It was worse than any porn I've ever seen and I won't publish any of
it.
Quotes
"Our continued dependence on fossil fuels will
jeopardize our national security. It will smother our planet.
And it will continue to put our economy
and our environment at risk. We have to acknowledge that an
America that runs solely on fossil
fuels should not be the vision that we have for our children and grandchildren."
-- Obama, talking about change, but
is that all he'll do? Talk about change? Link
Just think - If Gore had chosen to fight in 2000 instead
of going to sleep...
"The only way the transition to clean energy
will succeed is if the private sector is fully invested in this future
- if capital comes off the sidelines
and the ingenuity of our entrepreneurs is unleashed. And the only way to
do that is by finally putting a price
on carbon pollution."
-- Obama, waiting for someone else to lead
Link
I wish Obama would act like a leader, instead of acting like Harry
Reid.
Subject: Should the government be involved in the oil spill?
It's interesting to see Republicans and Tea Baggers
changing their tune when they want the government to bail them out
after the capitalists have failed. After all,
isn't the oil spill "Free Enterprise"? They didn't like the government
bailing out the banks,
but they want the government to bail out the
oil companies and help clean up the spill? I thought they believed that
wasn't the
government's role. They shouldn't interfere with
the "free market system".
Now the conservatives want the government to "take
over". They want government run beach protection? Are they asking for
socialized government run environmental protection?
Isn't this just more "government regulation". Just another "big government
takeover"?
Why do we care about the environment? That's
what those liberal progressive tree hugging global warming socialist hippies
want.
Not the conservatives are calling out to the
"federal bureaucracy" for a "bailout". What about BP's God given right
to make a profit?
When things are good it's easy for Tea Baggers
to run their mouth. But when the disasters come and we have to deal with
reality
all of a sudden they change their tune and come
crying to Uncle Sam wanting the liberals to clean up their mistakes.
I think the news media is giving these people
intellectual welfare to even listen to them anymore.

Subject: The Clintons
Hey Bart,
I read an article about Hillary having the highest
approval ratings of any US politician, in the mid-60s.
And then of course there was the "revelation"
that White House asked Bill Clinton to talk to Sestak.
And it got me thinking, and eventually smiling.
This power couple is still as strong, as powerful
and as relevant as ever. They both still in position to do
so much for US and the world, and they continue
doing it. They have had everything and the kitchen sink
thrown at them, and they both survived, and came
out stronger for it. And it's such a sweet feeling.
They've both become statesmen in their own right.
I will always respect and admire them, and I
hope, for the sake of our country and people worldwide,
they will remain in politics as long as they
can, because they have that important characteristic that's rare
in a politician...they care about PEOPLE.
Just wanted to vent a bit.

Lou Dobbs used to scream on CNN about

'niggers,' or saying, 'The Klan has good ideas.'
Instead, they're questioning the legitimacy
of Obama's presidency by accusing him of being born

they're having tea parties and calling Obama a 'communist' and a 'Nazi.'"

Subject: I know the guy who flipped on greer in the FL GOP invest
Bart:
If you read the search warrant affidavit here
http://miamiherald.typepad.com/files/greerbust.pdf
by LEOs investigating the FL GOP, they reference a Delmar Johnson.
I went to college with Johnson at FSU.
The guy represents everything reprehensible about
my fellow republicans (yeah im one so be it)
The guy is fat, obnoxious, a Phi Delta Theta fraternity
member who had everyone kissing his ass.
He ran for student government and bought his
way in, and became senate president.
His office became a shrine to Ronald Reagan (hey
i like Reagan but I don't need busts of the guy
and pictures festooning my office, its unseemly)
and George Bush Sr, he made that shit like his home.
Somehow the fat fuck got all sorts of women, or
at least appeared to. He had other student government
senators (women - he wasn't gay as much as I
could tell but Phi Delt guys who knows, right) all over his lap,
he was Mr. Handy if you catch my drift. He not
only looked corrupt, he WAS corrupt, and everyone knew
the guy was full of shit. He had charisma, I'll
give him that, but I guess it was just inevitable someone that greasy
and rotten would find his way into the higher
eschelons of the Republican party (whom I frankly don't care for).
Just look at this son of a bitch. As my late grandfather
used to say,
he's so terrible he makes your ass want a drink
of water.

Anyways just thought I'd let you know a little
more about the bitch snitch who flipped on Greer for likely probation.
I was PRAYING TO GOD he would get a Federal Grand
Jury indictment, I would have flown to Miami or wherever to watch that
shit.

"President Obama has once again shown his lack
of judgment, by sending Attorney General Eric Holder
down to the Gulf of Mexico to investigate
possible litigation. … Instead of concentrating on stemming the
ongoing oil spill, the Obama administration
is opening up a new gusher, full of litigation and trial lawyers."

"Is there any good reason for the Justice Department
to not conduct an investigation at this time?
Surely neither the JD's attorneys,
nor BP's, are involved in plugging the leak. This is just a continuation
of the conservative/Republican narrative
we’ve been hearing for the last eighteen months – attack and
criticize Obama at every opportunity
no matter what he does. If you take a look at almost any issue,
you'll find Republicans at the wrong
end supporting the interests of corrupt big business over those
of every day Americans."

Subject: I love Michigan
Kate M should move to a better part of town
than Dearborn.
Between the feds raiding the arabs' businesses
and the red neck cops who issue DWBs
to every african-american male between the ages
of 16 and 75, who would want to live there?
The best things about Dearborn are driving down
Warren AVE in the early morning and smelling
the pita bread baking, or having a great meal
in one of the many middle eastern restaurants there.
Other parts of metro Detroit are nicer.
My suburb, Warren, is okay. The racial mix has changed
a great deal since I moved there, because the
black middle class is abandoning Detroit in droves,
and buying cheap houses in better school districts.
Warren used to be known as the same sort of
red neck enclave that the non-arab half of Dearborn
is filled with. Now, we even have some black cops!
That is serious progress around here.
The best thing about Michigan is that there is
no place in the state that is not within a 30 mile drive of a beach
Beaches on lakes that don't have sharks and don't
have oil spills. Our tourism economy will be booming this summer.
No one is going to want to go to the Gulf Coast
for beach time this summer. Plus, this oil spill in the Gulf has
put to rest the talk of starting to drill in
the Great Lakes, something we were all very worried about.

Subject: Cheapest tequila?
Bart,
I recently drove through Tulsa so I could stop
by Parkhill Liquors and was dismayed
to not only discover they were out of Chinaco,
they also didn't know when they'd get it again.
Also, their prices didn't seem nearly as good
as I remembered from just a few years ago.
I wondered if OK raised the tax on alcohol or
something. I seem to remember Chinaco Anejo
(not reposado) for $35 per bottle, but their
new price was in the fifties.
Anyway, I'll be driving through OK again in the
fall,
and I'm wondering if you had another place to
recommend.
Mark in Santa Fe
Mark, you can't get any cheaper than Parkhill's. Here's the deal: Oklahoma
has a law
that you MUST sell your liquor in our state at the very cheapest price
you sell to anyone.
Since Chinaco is a small, hand-made tequila, they don't want to sell
it for $35
when they can get $65 for it in Nevada, for instance.
Don Julio's 1942 sells for $119 or $125 everywhere in America.
At Parkhill's, it's $74.95.
Subject: Dennis Hopper
I agree that was his AND Walken's best scene, but I don't know what you mean about connecting non-verbally.
Hopper knew he wasn't getting out alive, so he
said Walken's Great Great Grandmother had sex with a nigger,
that he was spawned by niggers. Hardly
non-verbal.
Landea
The point is, Walken couldn't back down in front
of his goons. That would've shown weakness
(perhaps he would've gone so far as to let Hopper
go?) so the two men - non-verbally - agreed to go
with the "You
made me so mad, I can't wait to kill you"
scenario which spared Hopper the torture
and it spared his son's life.

Welcome back. Great page Wednesday.
Lots and lots of content.
I was thinking, you know what I like best about

You are a funny guy. I laughed out loud
at your little rip on LimpBalls's new wife.
Sorry I haven't been able to send you a few $$
lately, but I need to put away all I can,
because, now that my probation is coming to an
end, big bucks are going to be required come October.
That's when it's gonna cost me upwards of $600
to get my license back.
Promise I'll try to squeeze in a few bucks somewhere
though.
Welcome back again, old friend. And keep the gallows
humor coming as America
continues to implode in its attempt to demonstrate
that "greed is good".

Bart, those are M40 self-propelled 155mm howitzers
of "Battery G, 937th Field Artillery Battalion"
Army unit which served in Korea in 1951.
The 155mm is approximately an 8 inch shell; the
howitzer has a bulldozer blade at the rear which was
buried in the ground to counteract recoil, and
you are right the noise would have been deafening.

Obama approves
new Gulf oil well
Sure wish we could get some change...
Quotes
"The Obama administration is blocking all new
offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico,
a day after regulators approved a new
permit for drilling in shallow water. An e-mail Thursday
from the Gulf Coast office of the Minerals
Management Service says that "until further notice"
no new drilling is being allowed in
the Gulf, no matter the water depth."
-- The Whore AP being as clear as the Gulf
on Obama's real position, Link
We can't believe anything the Whore AP says.
But if the Whore AP were semi-trust-worthy, it would appear that
some oil company
got a last-minute, just-before-the-door-closes permit and if
so, I'd like to know why and how.
Wouldn't it be great to live in a country where the press weren't
lying whores for big business?
