"If this is true, we were all fooled. along with scores of professionals trained in such things (what?) and we grieve for the victims and their families." -- Joe Paterno, trying to explain away the biggest moral failure of his life Joe, you knew you had a child molester on your staff - you chose to look away. Your staffer came to you and said, "I saw Sandusky raping some kid in the shower," and you passed that info along and never gave it another thought - for years. What if that had been your 10-year old grandson, Joe? You helped that monster rape kids - year after year after year. So, does Joe step down now? (I say yes) Or does he get to close out the season? Note: I was never molested - I was one of the lucky ones who somehow managed to slip thru that organized, worldwide Catholic Rape Net that they built. You know how you can tell? My old church has not been burned to the ground. I just hate bullies and child-molesters are the worst. Send e-mail to Bart GOP: It's Time to Panic
They got nothing and nobody Link GOP frontrunner Herman Cain is accused of several instances of sexual harassment; the weirdo with the Magic Underpants has managed to make his candidacy as exciting as coffin shopping. The rootin' tootin' cowboy spent this week trying to convince people he wasn’t drunk during a speech in New Hampshire. Not a single one of them—not Herman Cain nor Mitt Romney nor Rick Perry—bests a badly weakened Obama in the latest polls. And yet the GOP—the same crew who brought us Bob Dole, John McCain and the Iraq War—inform us that Republican primary voters are happier with their choices than ever. The might be good liars at the top GOP echelon, but the rank and file isnb't happy with their choices. If anything, there is deep unease among activist conservatives—the sort who trudge to the polls in the bitter winters of Iowa and New Hampshire—about the state of the race. At several recent functions in Washington, attendees expressed great enthusiasm for unseating Obama, but hardly anyone was thrilled with their likely standard bearers. Is it time for the GOP to start panicking yet? They have nothing and their odds of finding somebody decent are slim and none. The GOP is controlled by drunken yahoos and there's no cure for that. This is Obama's election to lose. He could still blow it, but right now he's poised to win. Send e-mail to Bart Seeing ads on the page means food on my family, so PLEASE turn off AdBlocker.

Looming Crisis of Climate Chaos by Richard Lee Dechert consortiumnews.com In his monumental 1988 testimony to the U.S. Senate, Dr. James Hansen, NASA’s chief climate scientist, “declared that man-made global warming had begun . . . [and] that human activities — notably, the burning of oil, coal and other carbon-based fuels . . . could trigger dangerous climate change.” But, as Associated Press writer Charles J. Hanley recalled in a recent report on the politics of global warming, “when Hansen was called back to testify in 1989, Bush edited this government scientist’s remarks to water down his conclusions, and Hansen declined to appear. A shot of Chinaco for Hansen's credibility. “That was the year U.S. oil and coal interests formed the Global Climate Coalition to combat efforts to shift economies away from their products. Researchers later determined that Exxon disbursed millions of dollars annually to think tanks and a handful of supposed experts to sow doubt about the facts. … “In fact, a document emerged years later showing that the industry coalition’s own scientific team had quietly advised it that the basic science of global warming was indisputable.” So, it wasn't enough for Bush to bankrupt the entire world and turn America into Torture Nation. He set the globe on a path of physical destruction and Our Mouse isn't sure what to do about it. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Re: "I was seen by a caucasian doctor" You have some very funny readers Bart, What if I would have said I was seen by a male or a female doctor, would I be accused of being sexist? What if I would have said I was seen by a Swedish or Norwegian doctor? I'm not going to defend myself against accusations of being a racist, that's ludicrous. I don't "hate America" but Canada is a beautiful place and most Canadians enjoy a very nice standard of living from what I've seen. I wouldn't mind having dual citizenship status and spend the summers up there and the winters down here, that would be the best of both worlds. Astrocat I think some of my readers want to be seen as Leftier than thou. When a topic comes up, they immediately embrace that Left wall, thus making everyone to their right "just like Rush." They mean well, but they are mistaken. Send e-mail to Bart Cops: Paterno didn't do enough He looked away while his friend raped kids Link Bottom line - a guy witnessed Sandusky raping some child in the shower. He told Paterno, Paterno told the Athletic Director and then Joe forgot about it. Can you imagine being that helpless ten-year old, a victim of the worst of crimes, and knowing that others knew but nobody stepped in to help you when it counted? The can't-be-bothered men in charge called it "a little horseplay." I hope they go to prison and find out what "a little horseplay" can mean. ...and Joe Paterno - he's thrown it all away for a little loyalty to a serial rapist. Years from now, when they talk about Joe paterno, they won't say, "Isn't he the coach with the most wins in college football history?" No, they're going to say, "He's the coach who stayed quiet while his friend raped at least forty little boys over a fifteen year period." Many years ago, they asked Joe why he didn't resign and take life easy. His reply? "I don't want to leave college football to the likes of Berry Switzer." Joe, Berry Switzer never did anything as terrible as what you've done. Time to resign in disgrace, Joe. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Rising tides life all yachts? This is a news tip rather than my usual letter to the editor. A friend emailed me the attached PDF document and I've found references to it on the Internet. It's a 2006 view of how Citigroup looks at the American economy describing it in a word they claim credit for coining. Plutonomy. A Plutomomy is an economy where a very small number of uber-rich control the government and economics within a nation - or perhaps globally. Notably - two thinks I found interesting was in their "What can go wrong?" section. 1) financial collapse 2) we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth #1 as we know already happened. But #2 seems to predict the current Occupy Wall Street movement. Seems to me the basis for a very interesting story. Make me wonder if Occupy could fund itself by short selling stocks of companies that sell to the super rich? :) Citigroup PDF I hope you find this news tip useful.

Send e-mail to Bart Subject: re: Am I a racist if I want an American doctor? Yo, Dude... The answer is 'No'... One of the problems the VA faces is that with the shortage of American doctors and the fact the few want to work for less money (the VA pays doctors well, but they can make more in private practice), the VA has been forced to recruit foreign trained physicians and many do have a language issue. i.e not being completely articulate in English. This makes many veterans uncomfortable. Including me. I don't discount the foreign trained doctors credentials. They are vetted by the VA and have licenses, etc, but I have had instances where it's been very difficult to understand them and them, me. So, one the ways the VA is getting around this problem is relying more and more on American Nurse Practitioners as 'Primary Care' providers. They can prescribe medications and all have Master's Degree's and additional post-Master's training to become 'Practitioners'. There are programs now where these RN's can get PhD's in certain specialties e.g. psychiatry and can thusly be called ''Doctor'. I've had a VA Nurse Practitioner for my 'Primary Care' provider for the past 10 years and I am more than satisfied and confident in her abilities. She is as sharp as a tack and very knowledgeable. Plus, I've found her to be far easier to open up to than I have any male doctor, American or otherwise. I know this has been long, but I hope you read it and post it if you will. Nurse Practitioners are the wave of the future and I solidly endorse them.

Phil Williams (R-Handjob), is a proposal to amend the Alabama Code of 1975 to change the definition of the term “person” to mean: “any human being from the moment of fertilization or the functional equivalent thereof.” Here's why this won't work: Let's say Sally is pregnant - but she doesn't know it. She goes ice skating, falls, is then taken to the hospital when the doctor does an exam and tells her she lost "the baby." Sally is then charged with Involuntary Manslaughter. What about Lucy, who's been meaning to fix that handrail on her tall steps. Lucy has two glases of wine with dinner, then falls down the steps when the handrail slips. Lucy is taken to the hospital, the doctor tells her she lost "the baby." Sally is then charged with Depraved Indifference. Pretty soon, every woman who miscarries is subject to a trial. After all she killed "a person" and that's a crime (to be) in AL and MS. Is this the America where you want your daughter brought up?

Another Earthquake That makes three in four days I've decided I don't like earthquakes. With tornadoes, you get a few minutes warning - not with earthquakes. And when it hits, all you can do is listen to the glass crying - have you ever heard that? It's such a weird sound - they must have a name for it. The glass in our walls made a noise like a glass chandalier being shaken or rustled. The glass sounds like it's breaking but it never does - it stays together. So, Lord, we're all caught up with our earthquakes now. I think there's someone in France right now who needs your help with a Spelling Bee.
