Ex-president and obvious anti-Semite Jimmy Carter is at it again. At a London press conference over the Memorial Day weekend, Carter described Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip as “one of the greatest human rights crimes now existing on Earth” and said that the European Union’s failure to support the Palestinian cause was “embarrassing”.

He was responding to a question about the level of threat posed by Iran to Israel, and had prefaced the above gushing expression of his dhimmitude by saying that Israel has “150 or more” nuclear weapons, “the US has more than 12,000 nuclear weapons, the Soviet Union (sic) has about the same; Great Britain and France have several hundred, and Israel has 150 or more.” “We have a phalanx of enormous weaponry, not only of enormous weaponry, but of rockets to deliver those missiles on a pinpoint accuracy target.”

This apparently was meant to imply that Iran’s possession of nuclear bombs would be minor in comparison and therefor not worth worrying about, even though Iran has sworn to wipe the state of Israel entirely off the Middle Eastern map.

Why Mr. Carter insists on exposing his hatred for Israel to the world, I have no idea, but I sure wish this former leader of our nation would shut up about it. He thinks the refusal of the E.U. to support the cause of the terrorist regimes of Palestine is embarrassing? Only to him. His support of terrorists is extremely embarrassing to America and all Americans and I dearly wish he would SHUT THE HELL UP!

The state of our current political morass is at least as embarrassing as Jimmy Carter’s non-stop mouth, and these paragraphs from a Black Star News article sum it up eloquently:

“While it is true that our current condition is primarily due to Republican greed, shortsightedness, and ineptitude, it is also true that we find ourselves in this condition as a result of the total impotence of the Democratic Party. Democratic politicians have been absolutely gutless for the past seven years. Instead of fighting for the soul of this nation and the ideals they profess to believe in, Democrats have been basing their actions on the direction of the wind; and instead of standing up for what was in the best interest of the nation, they were cowering in the basement on Capitol Hill, desperately trying to protect their own political careers.

But now that the Republican Party has all but self-destructed, the Democrats have chosen this moment to come strutting out to tell us all they want to do to protect our interest. Where were they before the Republican Party all but dropped dead of gluttony? If the Republican Party is indeed in the throes of death, it’s only resulting from Democrats allowing them to gorge themselves to death. And even now, the Democrats don’t have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to two egomaniacal Republicrats, (a reference to Bill and Hillary) as they wreak havoc within the Democrats’ own ranks.”

Carter is only one loose piece of the total fragmentation of our political leadership. There is no longer any cohesion among our government leaders. Just as the above article points out, they’re all out for themselves instead of uniting in the interests of their nation. None of them are putting America first, making the betterment of America their common goal. Instead they all bicker and feud and backstab, jockeying for power and chunks of pork.

It’s embarrassing.

Despite his call for the U.S. to win the “hearts and minds of the Islamic world,” Sen. John McCain recruited the support of an evangelical minister who describes Islam as “anti-Christ” and Mohammed as “the mouthpiece of a conspiracy of spiritual evil.”

McCain sought the support of Pastor Rod Parsley of the World Harvest Church of Columbus, Ohio who he described as “one of the truly great leaders in America, a moral compass, a spiritual guide”, hopefully because of Parsley’s well-established denunciations of the Islamic faith in a book “Silent No More” and on DVDs of sermons about Islam, rather than in spite of them.

This could change my whole view of John McCain. If he’s sincere about battling Islam, this would be great news indeed. George Bush Junior likes to hold hands with King Abdullah and have him stay at the Texas ranch, while King Abdullah pours billions into the perversion and subjugation of America to Islam, corrupting our schools and building mosques all over Hell and gone.

“Islam is an anti-Christ religion that intends through violence to conquer the world,” Parsley says on the DVDs reviewed by ABC News.

“America was founded with the intention of seeing this false religion destroyed,” Parsley says, “and I believe Sept. 11, 2001 was a generational call to arms that we can no longer ignore.”

Parsley’s views and his connection to the McCain campaign are now beginning to show up on Arab Web sites and newspapers.

Al Moheet, a regional Arabic Web site operating in Egypt, carries the story with a picture of McCain and the headline: “McCain’s Spiritual Adviser Calls for the Destruction of Islam.” McCain has repeatedly urged the U.S. to show respect for Islam. “Our goal must be to win the ‘hearts and minds’ of the vast majority of moderate Muslims who do not want their future controlled by a minority of violent extremists,” McCain told the World Affairs Council in Los Angeles on March 26.

Whether this is just political blather or not is the problem here. If McCain would stand up and say that he agrees with the pastor, that would make all the difference in the world. As it is now, all the worlds muslims already see him as an enemy and his “hearts and minds” crap is just that. Crap, and they know it. The minister is clear that there are no “moderate” muslims, as I’ve been saying for years, and McCain needs to take a stand on this issue instead of letting some minister dodge flak for him.

The most likely possibility here is that McCain simply used Rev. Parsley back when he was still campaigning in Ohio, to gain an edge over Huckabee and his religious posturing. I say most likely because the only mention of Parsley since is in the Arab media, where they’re still frothing over his accurate depiction of their evil cult.

Things like this are why I have my doubts. “Just a week ago, John McCain decried the decision to legalize gay marriage in California. Today you can catch him on TV chatting with Ellen DeGeneres, America’s foremost lesbian entertainer who within hours of the landmark ruling announced on air that she would marry her partner.”

“I wish her every happiness”, “She’s very popular. I’m a big fan of her and her show,” McCain said. Oh my God, John, you suck-ass son of a bitch.

McCain keeps coming off as just one more two-faced jerk politician. The only issue he’s been even halfway consistent on is staying in Iraq. Considering what that assinine war has done to wreck our economy and unite the goddam worlds muslims against us, that’s not politically very bright. The plain truth is that if you don’t mess with a hornets nest, the hornets won’t mess with you. Bin Laden and his band of Al Qaeda was not the whole Islamic world, and if we’d gone after him and only him, things would have been hokey dokey with the muslims. But Nooo, Bush saw the opportunity to make a try for Iraqs oil, blew it off, won’t admit his failure, and McCain wants to continue what was a bad effort to begin with.

It’s this sort of thing that has me preferring Clinton. At least, with her, the economy would be back on track and we’d be out of Iraq. None of them is my “best choice”. That’s Ron Paul.

I must feel like I’m drowning. I keep grasping at straws.

Suppose there was a massive, violent typhoon that hit an uninhabited area of some Eastern nations coastline and flattened every tree, followed by a huge earthquake that flattened all the mountains. It would be quite a sight, afterward. People would marvel.

Now let’s inhabit the area with people who breed like rabbits since sex is about their only real form of recreation, and toss in a typhoon, (Burma) and an earthquake, (China).

In China and Burma, the death toll is the product of the overpopulation and the severity of the violence and will very likely top 200,000 deaths. The point here is that natural disasters always occur. There are always earthquakes and violent storms and some areas are far more prone to these things than others. We know where these areas are but we live there anyway because we’ve bred ourselves out of space elsewhere.

The Pill is really cheap and works really well, and until these people start taking responsibility for their population levels, the only sympathy I have is for the children. Once they grow old enough to start porking each other and do it without contraceptives of some sort, there my sympathy ends because these “Nature Adjustments” will just keep right on happening and the hundreds of thousands will keep right on being swept to their deaths.

It’s not lack of foresight, it’s lack of responsibility. Whether it’s some corrupt, despotic government or simply individual choice, these disasters aren’t caused by Mother Nature but by Human nature. With our wonderful imaginations we find it too easy to create false realities to calm our fears, and to replace what we would rather not think about with imagined assurances. “Well, there won’t be a storm.” “Another earthquake won’t hit here in my lifetime.” Isn’t it amazing how we know the future that way, without the slightest evidence? Aren’t we all shocked and surprised when we’re wrong?

Massive human death is caused by massive human birth.

The massive starvation that is now beginning to spread out on the planet is caused by massive human birth.

The soaring price of oil, food, everything, is caused by massive human birth.

If we actually are causing global warming, it’s because of massive human birth.

If human life is as sacred as the right-to-life fruitcakes would have us believe, then why do we kill each other in wars? Why don’t these natural disasters have all our priests out there moaning “Why God why”? Nobody cares. People just like to get up on self-righteous soap boxes and cause problems where there were none.

Anything that reduces the number of people on this planet has my blessing as long as it doesn’t wipe out habitat. We need to reduce our numbers back down to about a tenth of what they are now. Then there will be plenty of cheap oil and cheap food for everyone, habitat can be restored, many animals on the brink of extinction can thrive again and continue to enrich the Earth and the lives of us miserable, selfish, stupid humans. There will be lots of room for everyone, people will have less reason to make wars and more reasons not to.

Eventually there’ll be another Ice Age, no doubt not too far off, either, if the timing of the cycles stays true to past performance. This will drive much of humanity to coastal areas just as it did the last time. It’s hard to make a living on an ice sheet. Our population is going to dwindle tremendously, to the level I quoted or less, and it couldn’t happen to a better planet.

Not very long ago John Edwards, former Democratic presidential candidate, said he’d withhold endorsing anyone until after the people had voted. He said it would be aganst the principles of democracy to do otherwise.So when West Virginia voted overwhelmingly for Hillary Clinton, and the trouncing of Obama was at the top of all the news, Edwards quickly leaped to the defense of his democratic principles by loudly announcing his endorsement of Black Osambo, thereby sucking all the wind out of Mrs. Clintons freshly billowed sails.

John Edwards is a lying, weaseling, two-faced sack of crap and I couldn’t be happier that this scumbag failed in his attempt to be yet another disastrous leader of my nation. I wonder how much he was paid to sell out his non-existent democratic principles.

I read what bloggers over in the UK have to say about their own corrupt, self-serving political masters and it’s all the same. Every last one is is a dirtbag, is greedy, a liar, and has no concern whatever for the people each supposedly represents. Certain careers attract certain types. Diesel mechanics, male nurses, nannies, steel workers. Politicians are different. It takes a certain ugly character warp for someone to want power over the rest of us, that you never find in other occupations.

This is the plain truth of politics and politicians. When we vote for these turds, we do so not out of conviction but out of hope, and every single time, decade after decade and generation after generation, we’re disappointed. Why do we keep doing it? Because it’s the only system we have and we just cannot bring ourselves to believe that every one of those excretions is lying to us when we never lie like that to each other. But they are.

It’s almost humorous to listen to the media describe as racist the overwhelming White vote for Clinton, yet not one of them used the “racist” word as 91% of Blacks voted for Osambo simply because he’s black.

More humor is in the Republican spotlight on Hussein as the presumed November adversary, pushing Clinton to the side, while the Democrats do exactly the same thing, pushing him to the fore and obscuring Clinton. The Republicans know that McCain can beat Obama handily, all the polls say so. Hussein simply has way too much baggage. The polls also say that Clinton can wipe her feet on McCain. Naturally the GOP wants to sideline her.

Too many controlling Dems are too far to the left, which is why they love a black Marxist-Leftist like Obama and promote him over their best candidate and best chance of gaining the presidency, which is Hillary Clinton. I do note, however, that over 200 super-delegates remain uncommitted with only a few weeks left of state primaries, and it’s a fact that this will be decided by the super-delegates. All the black ones have long since signed on with Osambo, meaning that the rest are White. I don’t think the polls are lost on them, nor the fact that the majority of White voters favor Clinton.

Hillary is a brilliant woman with brilliant advisors. I doubt that any of the media’s self-appointed pundits has nearly the insight or inside knowledge of what’s going on with the super-delegates as the Clinton camp, and she may well yet be handed the nomination by her party.

To me, the bottom line of all this is, will we have a president, McCain, who will maintain our disastrous economic course, or will we have Clinton as president, who will bring our economy back on track? Osambo will wreck us and has no chance of being elected anyway. If he gets the nomination, McCain will be president. If Clinton gets it, Clinton will be president. That’s just how it is.

None of them will fix our problems with illegals until we the people rise up the way we did against that nightmare in Vietnam. None of them will deal with the Arabs or the steady invasion of Islamization. Under McCain, our nation’s infrastructure and economy will continue to degrade and disintegrate. Under Clinton, they will be restored. We all know it. It’s the economy and the choice is simple. I don’t care how much she lies her ass off or commits evil deeds, I don’t care if she gets head in the Lincoln room. Our economy is Number One. Nothing else can get fixed until that does.

Got bronchitis, spending most of my time in bed but will finally be seeing the doc this afternoon. That’s why I haven’t been around with my startling insights and mind-boggling revelations. Right…

 But I’ll be back, “just as soon as I is able.”

PHOENIX (AP) — Fifty-three illegal immigrants (Aliens! Please!) found Sunday had been held against their will in a fortified home by suspected smugglers demanding more money, authorities said.

The group of rescued immigrants included two 13-year-old girls, three women and a mentally disabled man. The rest were men, Department of Public Safety spokesman Harold Sanders said.

Retarded guys aren’t men? Is this because they’re here illegally? Why would a retarded person even come here? Do we now have a Hire Mentally Defective Illegal Aliens program?

I love Freudian slips. The writer of this story clearly considered retarded guys to be less than men and by now the flak is coming at him or her from all directions, without a doubt. It sure is a good thing I don’t get paid for this or I’d be out on my ass for my insensitive lack of Political Correctness. Then I’d have to go out there and compete with the mentally defective Mexican illegal invaders for my daily taco and chili rellenos.

Mexican president Calderon claimed, not long ago, that all of Mexico’s best and brightest workers were coming here and we should be glad over poor Mexico’s loss. If that houseful of criminals, and I don’t mean just the kidnappers, is representative of poor Mexico’s loss, it’s no wonder Mexico wants to get rid of them. In the meantime, the drug wars have moved north to Mexico from Columbia and the Mexican cops are getting murdered left and right. The drug gangs have moved into MY country now and are engaging in similar violence.

Bill Richardson, New Mexico governor and self-described Mexican-in-disguise, promotes this influx of sub-grade specimens entirely because they vote for him. Talk about your selfish, traitorous bastards. He could care less about MY country as long as he gets to keep his cushy job.

This is why our government is so set against private militias such as spring up in Montana and Wyoming from time to time, and goes after them with hordes of Federal agents, kills most of them and imprisons the survivors. Because these militias always arise with the same purpose: to take out the traitorous bastards among us like Bill Richardson. They’re never successful because they usually lack the will and they always seem to pick up at least one snitch as a member.

Deleting the Bill Richardsons of the country is an impossible job anyway, there’s just too many of them, from all the Bush’s on down. That’s why America is in so much trouble. We don’t have leaders anymore, all we have is a bunch of Enron executives in disguise, every one out only for himself and devil take the hindmost. You just can’t run a country that way.

The rise of drug gang violence here and in Mexico is the direct result of the flooding of the U.S. with all those wetbacks. It’s the money that’s being poured out of MY country into Mexico by all the wetbacks sending it there, without anything coming back to us to maintain our economic balance. Does anyone think that only Americans are snorting coke and crank? How many wetbacks do you suppose are coming here as drug addicts? Hmmm? Do you think that might have anything to do with all the increase in violent crimes by them? Do you see why I call panderers of these criminals, like Bill Richardson, traitors?

I hear that some manufacturer in India has started making a $2500 car called the Tata. Cute little thing, looks like you could probably stuff 4 Bangladeshis into it but I wouldn’t try that with Wal-Mart customers, and it gets 50 miles to the gallon. It has 4 wheels and 4 doors. I don’t see how they can do that even if they only pay their workers one meal a day of yellow rice and curry. Hell, you can’t buy a good Honda generator for $2500. One thing’s for sure, the oil companies ain’t gonna like it.

Clean air is getting so costly in terms of the high fuel consumption of reduced-emission engines that standards are bound to start being reversed. Back in the 50’s and 60’s, your average Chevy or Chrysler V-8 auto did about 23 miles per gallon and straight sixes got close to 30. Then came smog controls which wrecked the engines and turned them into oil burning smoggers by feeding all that exhaust back into the intake manifold. Now we’re faced with suddenly very high and still rapidly escalating oil prices and fuel economy is becoming vital. The first environmental restrictions I expect to see thrown out are those on nuclear power plants and the burning of coal.

So why is the price of oil rising so fast? Two reasons. The first is the increasing rise from poverty of many of the worlds nations along with their increasing populations, which is putting greater and greater demand on an oil supply that is maxed out now. The other reason is that the world is still pegged to the dollar as the monetary standard, and the war in Iraq has greatly deflated the dollars value. This is because the war has been incredibly costly and the money has to come from somewhere. We don’t have it, plain and simple, so we get the Fed to print more of it to buy what we need to keep fighting the war. The Arabs aren’t stupid, they see us paying them with inflated dollars, so they increase the cost of their product accordingly.

This is how Adolf Hitler financed his war, by printing money. At wars end, the money was so inflated that it literally took a wheelbarrow full to buy a loaf of bread. People used it for wallpaper. It was worthless. I have stamps in my collection from when I was a kid that show this progression of devaluation, where the value starts at a few pfennigs (pennies) and ends up at several million Marks, to mail the same letter. Now we’re doing it. Postage is going up on Monday to 42 cents. It was 3 cents for over 100 years but it’s on a roll now.

Bush tells us, Yeah, we’re in a “slowdown”, um hum. No. We’re going into a depression. A depression is when nobody has any money to buy anything. I remember the last one, the tail end of it anyway, the last of the dust bowl stragglers driving old Model A pickups loaded with mattresses and stuff, driving into town. When things start costing more than people can afford, and unemployment goes up because people get put out of work because other people can’t afford to buy anything and create jobs for them, that’s a depression. Then add millions of wetbacks to the problem, who not only take what jobs there are at low wages but then send all the money back to Mexico instead of spending it here and giving a boost back to our economy.

It’s a mess, boys and girls. And I don’t see a way out of it.

Here’s a couple guys, of the type referred to in the vernacular as “heads”, who went head-hunting one dark and stormy night (as Snoopy would tell it) and dug up someone else’s head to use. As a bong. They went to an abandoned cemetery and dug up someones remains and took the skull to smoke dope with.

See? That’s why it’s called dope. The quote from the article is: “One of the men allegedly told police they dug up a grave in an abandoned cemetery in the woods, removed a head from a body and smoked marijuana using the skull as a bong.” This is in Texas. I didn’t know they even had any woods in Texas, but I digress…

They’ve been charged with misdemeanor abuse of a corpse. I think they should be charged with Blatant Hilarious Stupidity, and hired out as clowns.

Austrians have their Incest Dungeon but Texans have a form of incest all their own. Yes, we’re still in Texas, here. It’s a big state… anyway, President George W. Bush’s daughter Jenna was married on Saturday evening to Henry Hager, the son of the Virginia Republican Party chairman. Political inbreeding of the very worst kind. Ah well, at least they didn’t ruin two families.

“They’re rioting in Africa, they’re starving in Spain, there’s hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain.” A snippet out of a Kingston Trio song, true then, true now. A typhoon has killed off at least 100,000 of us according to the latest estimates. It wasn’t all that long ago that one that hit Bangladesh took the lives of over 200,000. The world paid little attention to the losses among that mass of teeming, terribly impoverished humanity then and is paying almost the same attention to this one. The numbers are too big and it’s too far away. We don’t want to think about it.

What we do notice, however, is a breakout in fighting in Lebanon and what that may mean to the price of oil. Of course, we also notice the price of oil. We notice it a lot, actually, and many of us are pretty scared about it because our wages aren’t keeping pace and the cost of oil is driving up the cost of literally everything else except our rent. And that’s coming, we know it is.

We pay closer attention to an Arab of African and American parents who is trying to take up the power seat of the worlds most powerful nation, than we pay to the deaths of 100,000 humans in one awful storm. We don’t pay any attention at all to this mans racist minister, this mans racist wife, this mans underworld and terrorist friends. We pay no attention at all to this mans stream of lies. That he’s an inveterate liar and storyteller matters much less than that he can orate well. Because he can, many people say they admire his “wisdom”.

What I admire is the incredible stupidity of my fellow man. I admire the shallowness of us. I deeply admire our false caring, our utter and total incapacity to admit being wrong or in error. I wallow in the luxurious ecstasy of pain suffered by those who are forced to actually apologize. I shudder with violent paroxysms of glee as we rise with one voice in our denial of any possibility outside of our own narrow, cretinously opinionated view.

But most of all, I adore, yes, adore, how really marvellously stupid we are. We who are so very clever at making gadgets, we are the master toolmakers. After millions of years of evolving, we have finally outdone the web spider in creativity while we still have the same mindset as the spider. We don’t care what we kill as long as we eat for another day.

Henry David Thoreau once remarked that if you read a newspaper once, you never needed to read another because the news never changed. The very few of you who stop in and read my rants will have noticed that my rants are coming fewer and farther between. I think it’s because I’ve said all I can say on the subjects I chose as the blog’s mainstay. If another war starts, all it is, is just another war.

Right now, you know, I’m just worn out on stupidity. I don’t say things here that stupid humanity is at all interested in reading. You can have your blog popularity contests and that’s fine, I just wanted to reach people, which is proof of my own stupidity.
