Losing The Internet

For the Human Family anyway. Today will be my last post for a while. At midnight Comcast Cable and Internet will be cast off. This along with the local phone disconnect will save the Human Family $150.00 a month. We now live in the Woods and shall be enjoying Spring and Summer to the fullest. There are many things I have to do to the Old Place to get it ready for sale. In between removing the dirt that has built up at the new place, for it has not been lived in a many a year, I shall try to stop at the Library and Blog when I can. I cannot play vids or other media there. To many pervies spoiled it for everybody else.

As for the Political Scene, I will rely on the 99% Solution. That is, anything I hear from the MSM by and by will be BS 99% of the time. On my peeks I see the MSM is still promoting the Rev. Wright crap, while ignoring Hillary's ties to extreme Right Wing Religious Groups. And as per Protocol not much about Armageddonist Rev. Hagee and other Blasphemers fully supporting McCain. I fear that the American Public will continue it's Sheep like behavior and fall for the Clinton/McCain MSM Launched BullShit. If Sen. Obama does not get the Nomination through the Dirty and Crooked means the Clinton/McCain Team will use, then I will revert to my 1st Choice, Rep. Ron Paul. Don't try to tell me any of that crap about throwing my vote away. Hillary and Sen. McNuts supporters are the one throwing there Vote away. And as for any Hillary supporters out there, You will be to blame for what comes down the line. And I save a Special Fuck You to all of Yous. Yous have repeated Lie for Lie what the Clinton/Mcain Team has said. Time to Growup And Face Reality.

Honestly, who do you think represents the Liberal Principles? Honestly, who stands a way better chance of Bringing The Troops Home? And since many seem to vote not on issues but for stuff the MSM wants you to focus on I ask Honestly, who has better Character? I ask Parents, Honestly, if you absolutely had to, which Family would you entrust your Child(ren) to?

These Two?




















This Family?











Or this Family?


I take my leave with this Poem that my Good Friend Roundearther sent me today -

"For Eli"

"Eli came back from Iraq
and tattooed a teddy bear onto the inside of his wrist
above that a medic with an IV bag
above that an angel
but Eli says the teddy bear won't live
and I know I don't know but I say, "I know"
cause Eli's only twenty-four and I've never seen eyes
further away from childhood than his
eyes old with a wisdom
he knows I'd rather not have
Eli's mother traces a teddy bear onto the inside of my arm
and says, "not all casualties come home in body bags"
and I swear
I'd spend the rest of my life writing nothing
but the word light at the end of this tunnel
if I could find the fucking tunnel
I'd write nothing but white flags
somebody pray for the soldiers
somebody pray for what's lost
somebody pray for the mailbox
that holds the official letters
to the mothers,
--------------fathers,
--------------------sisters,
and little brothers
of Micheal 19... Steven 21... John 33
how ironic that their deaths sound like bible verses
the hearse is parked in the halls of the high school
recruiting black, brown and poor
while anti-war activists
outside walter reed army hospital scream
100, 000 slain
as an amputee on the third floor
breathes forget-me-nots onto the window pain
but how can we forget what we never knew
our sky is so perfectly blue it's repulsive
somebody tell me where god lives
cause if god is truth god doesn't live here
our lies have seared the sun too hot to live by
there are ghosts of kids who are still alive
touting M16s with trembling hands
while we dream ourselves stars on Survivor
another missile sets fire to the face in the locket
of a mother who's son needed money for college
and she swears she can feel his photograph burn
how many wars will it take us to learn
that only the dead return
the rest remain forever caught between worlds of
shrapnel shatters body of three year old girl
to
welcome to McDonalds can I take your order?
the mortar of sanity crumbling
stumbling back home to a home that will never be home again
Eli doesn't know if he can ever write a poem again
one third of the homeless men in this country are veterans
and we have the nerve to Support Our Troops
with pretty yellow ribbons
while giving nothing but dirty looks to their outstretched hands
tell me what land of the free
sets free its eighteen-year-old kids into greedy war zones
hones them like missiles
then returns their bones in the middle of the night
so no one can see
each death swept beneath the carpet and hidden like dirt
each life a promise we never kept
Jeff Lucey came back from Iraq
and hung himself in his parents basement with a garden hose
the night before he died he spent forty five minutes on his fathers lap
rocking like a baby
rocking like daddy, save me
and don't think for a minute he too isn't collateral damage
in the mansions of washington they are watching them burn
and hoarding the water
no senators' sons are being sent out to slaughter
no presidents' daughters are licking ashes from their lips
or dreaming up ropes to wrap around their necks
in case they ever make it home alive
our eyes are closed
america
there are souls in
the boots of the soldiers
america
fuck your yellow ribbon
you wanna support our troops
bring them home
and hold them tight when they get here"

A New Friendly

I met Mike from A Healthy Bag of Politics at the Obama Campaign office in Chambersburg. Mike put up a great effort in Franklin County and no doubt turned out more than a few votes for Sen. Obama. He gives a good on going analysis of the Obama For President campaign at his place inter mixed with sports. You can also find Mike at the top of my Friendlies.

We are pretty well moved into the Woods. The deck which I fell through is being replaced. Still loads of stuff to do, so don't take it personal if I have not swung by.

Peace.

THIS PENNSYLVANIAN SAYS

FOR



Now I'm off to pitch in with the Good People at the Chambersburg Obama For President Office. Let's not forget that just 2 months ago Hillary was 20 points ahead on some polls. Since then my fellow Pennsylvanians have taken a good look at both candidates. Today we will see what Pennsylvanians are made of. We are truly the Keystone State. Let's show them what is possible.

DOHC Posted This in Comments

The young man is amazing. There still is more we don't know about the Human Brain than what we do know. Same thing about Our Earth and the Inner Space of the the Deep Blue Sea. This is why I want a greater study effort towards Our Brains and Earth than a trip to Mars. I understand it is all connected. But just for Priorities sake. Anyways, I'll post when I can. Still packing and moving into the Deep Woods.
Peace.

News Flash : Hillary Clinton Has Stopped Lying

She just giggles and refuses to answer instead.

Battling The Sick Far Right

Last Saturdy, Lil Joe and I went down to the Obama Office to meet others and canvas. When we got there we found one of the Sick Far Right holding a huge sign. He was yelling "This is what Obama stands For"! His sign? It was a picture of an abortion. This guy was big and many who were going in and out of the office were intimidated. About half of the volunteers showing up were women. Well I'm kinda big too :)
So instead of canvasing I was called upon to counter his sign. I was given a huge Obama sign collage. I stood in front of him holding that and shielding his sign from passerby and driverby's. For a bit over an hour. I waved and smiled the hour away. Many a friendly honk was heard and quite a few thumbs up and Peace signs too. The staff kept Lil Joe entertained and he even got a matchbox car out of the deal. Not wanted I really wanted to do that day. In other news of that day, the volunteers knocked on over 300 doors. Over a thousand this week!
So anyways, I have very limited time to be online, what with moving and all. For some reason I feel compelled to repost this letter I wrote -
A LETTER THAT CONSERVATIVE NEWSPAPERS REFUSED TO PRINT
The following is a letter I sent to a whole bunch of newspapers across America in mid 2003. I targeted Red States and "close" States. Many in the Midwest. Some were Newspapers online and others print. As far as I know it was never printed. I guess they were afraid others may read it. It's time to correct that oversight.

Hello, our names are xxxx and xxxxx.
My wife and I recently had to make a very personal decision on whether to end a pregnancy. This personal crisis did not possess any of the watchwords of the debate on abortion, such as unwed, teen, partial birth or rape. The deep spiritual and personal concerns facing my wife and I were just too complicated to be struck with any knee jerk label.

My wife and I, along with a Medical Doctor and Staff, who provided us with professional advice and support made the right decision.

There are those who strive to take away our decision. There are those who would kill the Doctor and Staff who provided us with Medical Care.

There are those who say we can't be trusted with this decision and want to make it for us, because they think they have a just right to do so.

Are these the same trusting people who see every issue in such a stark black and white prism that their political leaders can loudly proclaim "You're either with us or against us"?

Are these the same trusting people who's religious leaders loudly proclaim "This is a War against Islam", and have Sabbath Day War Briefings complete with Battle maps?

Are these the same trusting people whose Economic Leaders loudly proclaim, "It's a fair market, put your money here?

Are these the same trusting people who scream "Support the Troops" to the Mothers of the Born and Unborn children to be sacrificed on the Altar of Patriotism?

You know they are the same people. You see their catatonic inducing images everyday.

Give up our Right to make informed personal decisions to these people?

Give up our Right to squeak a dissent?

Give up our Right to Sneak and Peak through the blood stained glass adorning the Temple of Democracy?

It's our decision.

The answer is no.

PS - When I asked the mmmm errr gentleman protesting in front of the Obama office what he thought of anti choicers killing Doctors who perform abortions he answered that it was "Justifiable Homicide". He said the same thing about the Million Iraqi Dead.

Another Hillary Lie Revealed

Left in Aboite has the vid and quotes. Let's hold Hillary accountable. For the American-Iraq War and for her Lies. Isn't it time at least one Clinton learned Responsibility?

Filed under WTF?

WTF?

We are in the middle of moving oh about 15 miles away. A load here a load there. In between Clean Clean Clean. So I'll be on the internets when I can. In the meantime you can visit my new Friendlies Strudel & Shotguns and North American Patriot. It wasn't a waste of time after all at that Rude girl's place. Both Gentlemen can also be found on my sidebar.
Peace.

The Hyprocrsy of Suburban Guerrilla

UPATE:(9:22am April 8th 2008) Judging by comments Suburban Guerrilla Susie and Chris enjoy their Echo Chamber likes it's a second home.
UPDATE:(9:05am April 6th 2008) - Chris, over at Suburban Guerrilla, has written a post claiming it was all the spam filters fault. I notice that he does not mention that it was my second comment that was censored. Evidently I was supposed to beg to have my 2nd comment posted.
UPDATE:(8:25pm April 5th, 2008) Another Day, Another Hillary Lie. This time she makes up a story concerning a personal tragedy in regards to the Health Care Crisis. With this lie she gives ammo to those who would deny that a problem exists. You know. The Republicans. Her Buds. Most people in America today know of or have been personally involved with Health problems that have been exacerbated by genuine road blocks. Why would Hillary feel that she would have to make up a story? Is it because she is so out of touch with the Common People that she herself denies that there are real problems to be addressed? Or is she just such a habitual liar that she can't help herself?
You can go to Left in Aboite for the Skinny on Hillary's latest Lie.
In response to her Lie, here is the link to SICKO once again.

On a surfing trip through the internet I came across "Suburban Guerrilla". Being a Hillary supporter she claims not to understand why there is such hatred for Hillary from Sen. Obama supporters. After referencing Rhandi Rhodes calling Hillary a Whore she asks the question, "where are the examples of Obama being treated this way by other Democrats"? She couples that question with the slur of calling Obama supporters Republican like, and writing, "stay classy". Instead of just putting up the often used "kettle meet pot" retort I decided to show her why we would be so riled up. I would of tried to be "Classy" except that would be like trying to bluff my way through a Miss America Pagent. Having grownup (Troll Alert-Door Open for Snark) all over America including my teens years on the mean streets of Los Angeles, "Classy" does not become me.

This was my response - "Well let’s see, That Clinton ad where she had the image of Sen. Obama darkened, the fake radio ad in Ohio on the day of the Primary where she lied about Sen. Obama talking to the Canadians behind the voters back regarding NAFTA, Her and her husbands praising McCain at the expense of another Democrat, you know the Black Guy, Her criticism of Sen. Obama when he said something nice about Reagan while she herself lists Reagan as one of her fav Presidents, her love affair with Murdoch. Her lie about being under sniper fire(just like a Repub Chickenhawk), taking credit she did not earn.
Is that enough? If not just wait a day.(see update above) mmmmm ooops, you said Obama supporters acting like Republicans. Not the Military Complex Whore Herself. Me bad.
Whatever lies the Clintons and their supporters throw, Sen. Obama will still win in #of Delegates, States Won and the Popular vote. I have no doubt she will put on a Convention fight. Like a good Republican her aims are to destroy any chance of Sen. Obma winning in the General and stopping a Progressive Agenda. It’s one prediction she might just make good. With a bunch of help from her supporters.
Peace."

After my comment passed through comment moderation, there were 2 responses. However only one was done in a coherent manner. This was Dave's response -
"I don’t think that anyone outside the Obamasphere believes that the Clinton campaign darkened any pictures of Mr. Obama. Desaturated the picture, sure, but not darkened. And if Mr. Obama didn’t want to have the Canadian government running around claiming that he was lying about Nafta, well, the solution to that would have been to just not talk to the Canadian government in the first place.

But exploiting a foolish comment by the Obama campaign is not even on the same continent, let alone in the same ballpark, as being called a “Military Complex Whore”. And it’s pretty much routine now — a Clintonista will criticise Mr. Obama on policy points, political experience, or voter suppression, and back will come the crudest possible sexist slur possible against Ms. Clinton the woman and not Ms. Clinton the candidate.

Gosh, I can’t see *any* reason why we wouldn’t want to vote for your guy after this."

I thought that was a pretty good comment even if factually challenged. This was my rebuttal - "Desaturated? Is that a Bushism? Like "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques"?
Voter suppression? Who is buying that? Just because her surrogates like Rendell and you keep repeating it does not make it so. Sen. Obama has played by the rules from the get go. Hillary has not. Did you know the Canadian Government contacted both Hillary and Senator Obama? Did you know both met with them? Do you know the meetings were weeks before? Why did the Canadians and Hillary lie about Sen. Obama's meeting just right before the Ohio Primary? Who do those fake "News" report ads remind you of? So, because the Canadians lied it's okay for Hillary to do so?
Policy points? You don't mean Iraq do you?
Experience? Let's see who has more time in a Legislature?
I guess you didn't like the fact that your candidate receives the most from the Mighty MIC? Guess which Dem receives the most from the Troops themselves?
Guess which candidate really did lie about NAFTA?
If you want to believe Hillary and her surrogates lies about Sen. Obama go ahead. But it don't change the facts.
And on the personal side, you like so many have a transference complex. She's your candidate, not your wife. Or you. it's called politics. It's okay. I was feeling the same way about my 1st pick, Rep. Paul. Then I moved on.
And for the record, they are all Whores. I just want one for us. It's time for We The People to get a Slice.
Peace."
This comment did not get to be posted because "Suburban Guerrilla" put my IP in her spam catcher. If she didn't wanted an answer to her question and a discussion of the facts pertaining to it then she should either not ask it or just close comments on her post. Otherwise she is just being a Hypocriten. Just like her candidate.
Link to her post, She Don't get it.
Note: Out of hundreds of posts I have seldom put up a post about another blogger. The only others that I can recall off the top of my head are 2. That nasty Porcine from Hades and Kira. The real fun with Kira was in the comments of that post. Unlike "Suburban Guerrilla" they were and if still alive most likely still are Bush Usefools. Besides the obvious ,there is another similarity between Kira and "Suburban Guerrilla". Both claim to be Journalists. It's always good to end with a laugh.

Peace for those who take it. War and Woe to those who do not.

To Pennsylvanian Voters - Hillary Clinton's NAFTA Lies Exposed

The Good News of the Day - "The (Obama) campaign announced today that more than 442,000 contributors across the country together contributed more than $40 million in March. Of those contributors, over 218,000 were donating to the campaign for the first time."

Meanwhile the Hillary Campaign is so cash strapped that she can't pay the bills. Just more evidence that she not only lacks support, but does not know how to make do with what one has. An important talent for a President that will be faced with very severe National Economic woes will be the ability to make do.
