We all have neighbors unless we live in remote caves on peak K-9 or some such, and we all consider ourselves to be the best people on the block of them all. Of course. Because we are.

So with this feeling of selfless love for all humanity overflowing from my heart, let me tell you about my neighbors, one of whom is inspiring this post at this very moment.

That’s the folks who live directly to one side of me and whose fence is perhaps only 6 feet away from my front porch railing. I was sitting in my living room minding my own business and watching TV, and over the sound of the program I kept hearing this “RAUGH!” or “BARK” sort of noise. Finally I got up and went to the door to see who or what was being attacked and it turns out to be some drunken guest of the next door man of the house, out in said man of the house’s all-steel workshop, repeatedly exploding with that barking sound, which apparently is his method of laughing.

This male neighbor has an old car in his shop with a cheap Earl Scheib enamel paint job on it, the kind where all the dirt, scratches and pits are painted over. I mean, this is a BAD paint job. I was in said shop building last fall talking with him and noticed a chip under the paint, and, having done auto body and paint work for very many years, I absent-mindedly ran a finger lightly over the bad spot.

This guy came unglued on me, telling me, a professional, that I should know better than to touch the paint on someones car. I told him to go fuck himself, congratulated him on making an enemy of the best neighbor he ever hand, and left. Shortly thereafter he called me up and apologized. I accepted it, but I haven’t forgotten either. I’m the guy who built his kids treehouse when he suffered an accident after just starting the project, and his kid was naturally disappointed. Among many other acts of kindness, decency and good neighborliness.

Right now it’s nearly 11 at night and he and his friends have fired up that old car and are racing the engine and screaming. My front door neighbors. Self-centered, selfish, thoughtless sons of bitches.

The neighbors on the other side of the fence out past my back porch won’t speak to me. They have a huge dog, a monster German shepard, that they spoiled so badly that whenever we tried to talk to each other the dog would get jealous and bark continuously and very loudly for attention. We literally couldn’t hear each other. The dog was also scaring hell out of women who would walk by on the street pushing baby carriages, for some reason only the dog knew. So I tried to talk to them about getting some training or SOMETHING for the dog, because it was becoming a genuine menace. That did it. How dare I not love their dog unconditionally. Now they look the other way if I come into view, and even drove home from the opposite direction for a long time so they wouldn’t go by my house.

Ah. Just got off the phone with a gal who lives a couple houses down wanting to know if I had a phone number for my noisy neighbors besides their cell phone, which they’re not answering and she is trying to call to tell them to SHUT IT DOWN before she calls the sheriff on them. The roaring engine is off now, the barking laugh is down to about pit bull level from its former braying jackass volume, and maybe the sheriff came by after all. We do have other neighbors who must have been unhappy with the racket.

The neighbor who called is nasty in her own right, as she has some sort of negative drift about men and can’t stop herself from blurting out rude insults at very inopportune moments. Then she apologizes, and then she does it again. I no longer take it personally, but it does get tiresome. She’s alienated herself with most of the people in our neighborhood for being personally intrusive and a trouble-maker. She’s always happy to take something you said about someone and tell them, after a little amplifying and embellishing, just to make sure it has enough impact.

At the same time, because I put up with her crap most of the time, she’s always trying to do something nice for me. She does ask for my help with some little difficult chore once in a while, but will always find a way to repay me, by doing some shopping for me or whatever. She and her own next door neighbor, further from me, are on hostile terms due to her inability to let things just slide once in a while. She just can’t seem to understand that just because she doesn’t like something, that doesn’t give her the right to raise hell about it.

Last but not least is the madwoman behind my backyard fence. She really is. She told me herself that she is bi-polar, manic depressive, and schizophrenic and takes lithium to keep from having delusions. She’s a truly beautiful creature if you like creatures, standing about 4 foot 9 inches and weighing around 200 pounds. Her hair is similar to a wadded tangle of barbed wire and her face would frighten off any large male toads who came a’courting. She waddles when she walks, ape-like. I call her Toad Woman.

She has the neighborhoods largest collection of white 5 gallon plastic buckets and round cement pads, the kind you use for stepping stones in the garden, and they’re all neatly stacked behind her house and covered with pieces of plywood. The reason she has the neighborhoods largest collection of these items is because she’s stolen them from everyone else’s yards. She also has a very large garage behind her house, which is filled to the brim with lumber scraps of all descriptions, all stolen from people’s yards over the years.

Three years ago the noisy neighbor had arranged for a dump truck load of fill dirt to be dumped by his back porch, to level the ground for that shop he built. But when the truck arrived, he wasn’t home and Toad Woman got him to dump it in her driveway, where it remained until last summer.

I had to build a good strong fence around my property to keep her off it. Especially to put a stop to finding her in my living room at odd hours of the day. She’d just walk in without knocking.

She’s belligerant, hostile and never has a kind word for anyone or anything. What a sweetheart.

And that’s my neighborhood, pretty much. What I do, is I tend my garden and my chickens, mess with my lapidary hobby, try to stay on good terms with the tenants of my rentals that provide my income, do a repair now and then on one of them, and keep contact with my neighbors to a minimum.

For a guy who spent twenty five years living in the wilderness, twenty of them alone, this is quite a change being among these non-survival types. There’s not a single person on the block who would last 30 days in the places I’ve lived, and the only reason I’m here now is because I simply grew too old to be living alone in the woods.

Don’t you know I miss it, though, especially on nights like these with idiot neighbors who don’t know when to shut up. It’s almost midnight and they’re still at it.

Why it took so long for something so obvious to dawn on me, I can’t guess unless it’s simply prejudice in favor of Christianity over Islam.

However, my steadily increasing lack of respect for Catholicism has finally reached the point to where I can see that I’ve indeed been prejudiced. No longer. While Catholicism doesn’t preach the violent murderousness that Islam does, pretty much everything else about it is the same.

Both threaten their victims with punishments for infractions of the rules. Their rules are different from each other and so are the punishments, but they both use threats to keep their victims in line.

Both promote child sex. Islam does so openly while Catholicism does so secretly.

Both publicly deny the truth of what they do, in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Both control the sexual behavior of their victims.

Both dictate the eating habits of their victims.

Both claim to be the only true word of god and both have created their gods in their own image.

Both are base on Old Testament violence and the concept of a Jealous God.

Both are anti-Semitic.

Both murder their leaders to become the leaders. The Popes get poisoned, the Imams get bombed.

Both are broken into a variety of sects.

What’s different about them is that the Catholic Church is no longer able to torture or burn people to death, and promote and finance wars the way they did in the past, while Islam is still doing it.
Other than that, I don’t see a bit of difference between Islam and Catholicism.

I just got through watching an episode of South Park about medical marijuana. They had a few things to say about the Pope, too, or actually one thing said in two different ways, which was that the Pope has made the world safe for pedophiles, and protects pedophiles.

When I got through laughing, the thought struck me that their boss, Comedy Central, lets them get away with saying anything they want about the Pope but censors everything they say about Mohammed. The only difference is that Catholics won’t come running in wearing explosive vests or even threaten to kill them, let alone try to. As opposed to the Muslims, who love to hand out death threats.

I guess if you’re chickenshit enough to cave in to the vile threats of one 22 year old white convert to Islam, that he posted on his anti-everyone website, then you don’t deserve to have freedom of speech anyway. The problem is when your cowardly reaction interferes with the freedom of speech of the rest of us.

Personally, I think anyone who cravenly submits to the threats of some worthless fucking wanna-be Muslim should be thrown off a cliff. That way we can strengthen our genetic pool Darwin style. Eventually all the trembling pansies would be weeded out and Islam could be properly dealt with.

The real truth here is that the writers of South Park will not be attacked by Muslims, for good reason. The whole Islamic-takeover show is being run by the Muslim Brotherhood, which is itself run by the Saudis. They wait until there’s enough Muslim immigrants into a nation to be a strong force before starting up with the threats and the murders and the terrorism, and they do this only when they feel they have a good chance of tipping over that nation to Islam. This is why they do it in the Netherlands but not here.

They’re a long ways away from that here, and any attacks on people here for criticising the Pedophile Mohammed or the Religion of Death, Islam, would only worsen an already deteriorating image here of Islam and increase resistance to it. Here, the Muslims still have to tread carefully.

Meanwhile, I have a great idea. Let’s all put on our latex gloves, gather up the dog shit that people’s unleashed pets are always leaving on our lawns, and use it to draw pictures of Mohammed with. Send them in and I’ll post them here. Email to newsbleat at comcast.net

It’s about time something positive cropped up. In a good hearty slap to the ACLU, the Supreme Court today said that the “Mojave cross”, a small Latin cross in the Mojave National Preserve there since 1934 to honor soldiers who died in World War I, can remain even though it’s on public lands. The majority decision said the 1st Amendment of the Constitution called for a middle-ground “policy of accommodation” toward religious displays on public land, not a strict separation of church and state.

That should put a screeching halt to the constant barrage of ACLU lawsuits that erupt every time one of their lawyers spots anything remotely resembling a religious symbol in any government-owned place or space. Not that I want to see crosses and Jesus statues everywhere. I don’t. However, the cross or the Star of David have always been used for symbols on markers honoring war dead and there’s no reason that should stop. If the view offends anyone they can look the other way. The only ones likely now to pitch a bitch are muslims and what would you use on their markers? Bloody swords or exploding vests, probably.

The other good news is that America’s first offshore wind farm has finally been approved after 10 years of political hindrance and paperwork, to be installed in Nantucket Bay. This is just one day after I ranted about our need to convert to non-petroleum power technology. Somebody musta heard me.

I will give the Obama crowd one hand clapping on this one. They are pushing for clean energy and a retreat from oil dependency. The other hand would join in if they would drop what they call “Cap and trade”, which is actually “Limit the carbon dioxide output of power plants and TAX LIKE CRAZY anything over that limit.” Because as Obama himself clearly stated, this will double or more the cost of energy to us consumers of it, and that will drive up the cost of manufactured goods in this country so high that no one can buy anything made here. That will result in HUGE unemployment, everything that isn’t made in China now will be, but we won’t be able to buy nearly as much from China as we did before Cap and Tax, so China’s economy will sag badly, and the end result will be the entire planet going into yet another Great Depression. Not a well thought-out idea there.

But meanwhile, I have one hand briskly beating hell out of the air. Just to give them the incentive to get their acts together so they can hear that magnificent CLAP!

This was a disaster waiting to happen and everyone knew it. That didn’t stop it from happening though, because the level of profits involved overruled common sense.
The Coast Guard said that the crude oil pouring out of an underwater well in the Gulf of Mexico has left a rainbow sheen of 80 miles by 42 miles, and is approximately 36 miles offshore.

The crude oil spill was caused by the explosion and sinking last week of the Transocean Ltd. Deepwater Horizon, a floating oil rig, which was drilling an exploration well for British Petroleum PLC.

Five thousand feet of pipeline hanging down underneath a huge floating oil derrick, connected to a well-head at the bottom of the ocean. That’s just about one mile. The area is subject to hurricanes as it is that can blow those rigs away from their wells or sink them. Ah, but there’s always the possiblity that they can blow up, too, a danger no one bothered to warn about, and now one has, with disastrous results.

The liquid tar will hit shore this Saturday, creating an environmental disaster, harming local businesses and further increasing opposition to the Obama administration’s plan to let the oil industry drill in new offshore areas. Thousands, maybe millions of birds will die. Breeding wetlands for billions of fish will be destroyed and some food fishes will become extinct. This is an epic disaster, from only one well. There were over 4000 known oil platforms in the Gulf in 2008 and there’s more now.

Since there is clearly not going to be any effort anywhere to reduce planetary population, which continues to increase and increase the demand for energy, fossil fuel technology needs to become a fossil itself. When our demand for energy reaches the point that we put our coasts in dire danger of becoming sterile, we kill the source of all our seafood, and that kills the ocean itself. That’s exactly what we’re doing.

The oil interests continue to cry out against nuclear power plants, shouting “Danger, danger”, while doing a lot of harm themselves.

Nuclear plants can be isolated to remote areas. The primary harm they do, short of meltdowns like the disaster at Chernobyl, is they heat up river or ocean water that’s used to keep the fuel rods from, yes, melting down.

The problem is that we’re going to have to either make some hard choices about our energy sources or else find a better and safer form of energy for most of our needs. Electricity can replace just about all of what we get from fossil fuels except plastics, chemicals and lubricants. If we stopped burning the stuff and utilized it only for it’s other uses, we’d never run out of it, though we will fairly soon if we keep burning it up.

Wind plants do well but have their limits. Solar photovoltaics do better. Solar steam power is probably the most economical of all, and all are old technologies now and easily applied. If we took most of our energy needs from free sunshine our planet could heal instead of being wounded faster than it can recover, the way it is now.

Nothing like these ideas is going to happen, of course. It’s just something to rant about on a Tuesday morning.

Ernesto Ribeiro, a regular contributor, asked me to post an image he found of Obama as a vampire sucking blood out of the Statue of Liberty’s neck. I don’t mind obliging, but rather than post a cartoon, I thought the real thing might be preferable. The following picture is attached to an article regarding Obama’s continuing stonewalling over his birth certificate. You should read it. For instance, I didn’t know that he’s spent over $2,000,000 of our money on lawyers so far who keep quashing lawsuits to get his birth certificate revealed. Did you know that? Damn right he’s hiding the truth, and the incredibly apt picture is of him looking like the cat that swallowed the canary. Take a look:

An argument is made by a strong minority that to qualify for the Presidency, the candidate’s parents must both have been natural born citizens, as well as the candidate, but this has not been the case historically. So even though Obama’s father is Kenyan, he could still be qualified because of his citizen mother if he can prove birth in the United States. So why doesn’t he?

In the past six days, the Arizona state legislature has passed the nation’s strictest anti-illegal immigration bill, a law permitting concealed weapons, and the House has approved a bill requiring a presidential candidate to show his or her birth certificate to appear on the state ballot. I’ll be very surprised if at least a few other states don’t follow suit on the birth certificate issue. We have a radical in office, occupying the White House, and we don’t even know for sure where he came from. It’s not only time we did, it’s something we should have known before we ever went to the voting booths.

The governor of the state of Arizona has just signed a bill that directs police officers to check the papers of anyone they suspect might be an illegal alien. The law, which will take effect in 90 days, will make it a state crime to be in the country illegally.

“The bill requires immigrants to carry their alien registration documents at all times and requires police to question people if there is reason to suspect that they’re in the United States illegally. It also targets those who hire illegal immigrant day laborers or knowingly transport them.”

Well, hoorah! Of course, Obama immediately and arrogantly called Ariz. Gov. Jan Brewer “misguided” for signing it, and she didn’t let that pass, responding that “We in Arizona have been more than patient waiting for Washington to act,” Brewer added. “But decades of inaction and misguided policy have created a dangerous and unacceptable situation.”

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus and a wide variety of other Mexican types, along with lunatic-fringe liberal bleeding heart groups, are all doing flips and gyrations over this threat to actually enforce our immigration laws.

Critics claim that it will allow racial profiling, which the PC Leftards have made illegal here, to our great detriment. They’re ignoring the fact that there’s lots of ways for an officer to suspect someone of being illegal. Do they speak English? Are they climbing through a hole in a border fence? Or in a vehicle filled with too many people, or in an area populated by illegals, or waiting with a group in front of a day-job center that is known to cater to illegals? How about Hispanic people who get paid to turn in illegals? And so on. With about 450,000 known illegals in Arizona, it shouldn’t be too hard to figure out who is who.

I am all for racial profiling. If a crime is committed by a young white male, no one cries foul when lots of young white males get questioned by police. But let that happen to an other-than-white person and you can hear the outcry from Maine to Dixie. We need racial profiling as a tool for our law enforcement officers and we need to stop slamming them for being suspected of it every time someone is questioned or mistakenly arrested.

We need to dump all the Politically Correct laws and pass laws against Political Correctness. I think they would comfortably fall under Sedition Laws. Another good thing we could do is publicly brand the ACLU as being the Anti-American, Communistic organization that it literally is, having been founded by a Communist for the explicit purpose of bringing down our democracy. Organizations like the ACLU should be prosecuted under our sedition laws.

As long as we keep voting in frauds like George Bush and Marxist Black Liberationists like Hussein the Arab, we don’t stand a chance of putting our nation back to rights. I think at best, we can at least say that America was a grand experiment in freedom that’s been a beacon for future history to look back on, learn from and maybe someday create again, with better safeguards the next time.

Comedian Guy Earle, master of ceremonies at a Vancouver comedy club three years ago, was being severely heckled by a drunken lesbian named Lorna Pardy and her drunk lesbian friends. He responded in true Don Rickles fashion and called Pardy and her two friends “dykes,” (they commonly call themselves that) among other things, and made explicit suggestions about their sexual practices.

For that he is now under a tribunal of the British Columbia’s Human Rights Commission’s guns. The tribunal is hearing Pardy’s complaint that Earle’s comments about the group’s sexual orientation were discriminatory under a section of the B.C. Human Rights Code covering service in businesses.

The case is going ahead the week after U.S. conservative firebrand Ann Coulter cancelled an appearance at the University of Ottawa after being warned not to violate Canada’s hate-speech laws. She’s threatening to go the Canadian Human Rights Commission, claiming discrimination.

Hate-crime laws are thought-crime laws. Laws to punish those whose “wrong thoughts” were behind the commission of a crime. If you hate a neighbor for being too messy or noisy and kill him or her, that’s simply murder. If you kill that neighbor for being a different race or for being homosexual, that’s a hate crime and the punishment is greater. If the neighbors messes didn’t stop you, why should their race? What the Hell’s the difference? Hate is hate. How about if a homosexual kills a neighbor for being the only normal person in the neighborhood? Will the homosexual be prosecuted for a hate crime? Will pigs ever fly?

Canada, being more Liberal Left Wing in their laws than we are here in the U.S., has been steadily eroding freedom of speech for the benefit of minorities, but the push is on by our own radical Left Wing Obama administration to do the same thing here. Truly, freedom in free countries is under constant assault not just from outside interests but from within.

When we’re so careless in our voting that we elect someone simply for promising “change” without even asking “What kind of change?”, that’s when we get the sort of messes we’re being handed now.

Such as massive new taxation. Obama now wants to dump a National Sales Tax, aka a Value Added Tax or VAT, on us just like they have in Europe that adds as much as 25% additional cost to merchandise. The result will be a dramatic inflationary effect, a tremendous increase in poverty, and an enormous burgeoning of the welfare rolls as more and more people are forced to sign up for food stamps and other government programs in order to stay afloat.

The VAT is wanted exactly for that purpose, to pay for massive new government welfare programs for minorities. It’s a giant Ponzi scheme, where you take money from one investor to give to another one, keeping part of it for yourself, up until you run out of investors and the whole thing falls apart, and everyone loses their money.

The increase in the cost of goods means less goods will be sold, which of course will result in increased unemployment, which means even less goods will be sold, and so on until it all grinds to a halt. In the meantime, a large proportion of our population will be receiving some type of government assistance that can no longer be paid for without simply printing money. That’s the next step. Uncontrolled inflation, followed by total collapse of the economy. Germany did exactly this twice. Recovering from the first one wasn’t enough for them.

This is just one of the disasters looming as a direct result of Political Correctness. It’s not just the loss of freedom of speech, that’s only a symptom of the disease, like the terrible blistering of German Measles. The progress of the disease of Political Correctness only ends with the death of the patient.

South Park, the TV adult comedy cartoon, did a satire show on the various religious icons, Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad, Moses and so forth, but because Comedy Central wouldn’t allow (was terrorized) them to actually depict Mohammed, they had him supposedly inside a bear suit instead.

This has infuriated Muslims, as usual, who use any depiction of Mohammad by non-Muslims as an excuse to go kill non-Muslims. This is a modern ploy as Mohammed has been depicted countless times in drawings in Islamic literature ever since Islam unfortunately began, but the push is on now to make Islam dominant and this is one more way to stop criticism of the worst, ugliest, most vile and violent credo ever spawned. Islam makes Nazism look like Sunday School class.

An Islamic hate website, http://www.revolutionmuslim.com, that’s been spewing ugly propaganda for years, has called for the murder of the creators of South Park, and good luck on that link working, as I’ve been unable to log on ever since this first hit the news. Maybe they shut down and ran back to Saudi Arabia to avoid prosecution. Killing that site is certainly fair, since even YouTube keeps taking down postings of the South Park video clips.

This may at first seem unrelated, but my point will become apparent. Be patient… Back in 1950 the Antelope Valley Sheriffs Department had a standing posse of which my father was a member, and they used to go out to some high berm alongside the railroad tracks with their rifles and shoot the wetbacks who would ride on top of the freight cars. When my father told me about it, I was 11 years old and was aghast. I protested, “But Dad, that’s murder”.

Today I would happily be one of those deputies with a rifle. In those days those in charge of enforcing the law did so, in no uncertain terms and if we still did today, there would be no Muslim problem, let alone an illegal alien one. If that’s seems extreme, well, of course it is. But Muslims in the U.S. telling us what we can show on our own TV’s and openly threatening us with death is not?

The problem with having the sort of country where the police can shoot offenders on sight without recourse is that soon no one would be safe from them. It’s just too much power to give to anyone. Yet this is exactly the power that Islam gives to Muslims when it comes to exterminating the “infidels”.

Those deputies quit before they were caught, because we don’t have that sort of country and they knew better than to make a career of it. What we do have is a population that’s getting fragmented more and more along racial and religious lines and a growing internal hostility. I see as much racism from blacks and Hispanics today as I used to see from whites, and the Muslims, who represent a filthy religion and will use any excuse, claim racism whenever their filthy, evil religion is criticised.

How long will it be before the Imams spread the word to start murdering us ‘infidels’ in the streets? They will, just as soon as they feel there are enough Muslims in the U.S. to start the “tipping over” process, and there’s a real chance that they’ll rush it because of pressure to speed up the process globally.

When, not if but when, they do, what do you suppose all those Roman Catholic Hispanics will do in response? I doubt there will be more than token payback from Christian quarters but the Mexicans here are extremely territorial creatures and they’re not going to take kindly to Muslims trying to take over the same states they’re trying to retake for Mexico. The Mexican drug wars are just practice for what’s coming and even Obama will have to back away from siding with the Muslims as state militias start taking action to quell the violence on both sides.

Religion has always been a problem for humanity. So many wars have been fought over it that they’re literally beyond count, and all that agony and waste, misery and death was all for nothing. Religion has held back the advance of humanity more than any war for any other reason, any disease, disaster or any onslaught of Nature ever has.

All religion is superstition, the belief in things that don’t exist, and anyone capable of rational thought, and most of us are, should be able to see this immediately. But not so. Priests threaten us with “eternity in a burning fire” and all manner of other crap they can’t possibly have any personal knowledge of whatsoever and do this to us while we’re little children, and terrorize us into cowering in fear of the wrath of some non-existent mighty god who never materializes during our entire lives, so that we can live forever after we die. But mostly so the priests can have power over us while living soft, easy lives at our expense. The bloodsucking leeches.

We fear death, so we greedily suck up the idea that we won’t die. That even though our bodies will stop living, our minds will go on living forever, that we will somehow retain consciousness without a brain. Kinda makes you wonder if we have brains now, you know what I mean?

Things can change and we may not have our own religious war, I’m just pointing out the very real possiblility that it could happen. Islam thrives on violence and the Muslims do want to take over the United States.

I love reminding people of that ancient Chinese curse: “May you live in interesting times.” Because we certainly do.

We have seat belt laws thanks to auto insurance companies, that force us to wear them or pay fines. The seat belts prevent injuries in accidents and so the insurance companies make a lot more money while still charging the same premiums. The right of the individual to decide has been taken away in favor of the desire for greater profit by insurance companies.

We have helmet laws for motorcycle riders that are exactly the same.

Health insurers have been trying to get on this bandwagon for years, and keep trying to force us to eat healthier foods. The latest effort is coming in from the Institute of Medicine, one of the National Academies of Sciences, which claims that the Food and Drug Administration should regulate the amount of salt added to foods to help Americans cut their high sodium intake, which can lead to high blood pressure, kidney failure and strokes.

This is what comes of our government being in the health insurance business, Medicare. It starts lobbying to cut insurance costs, like any other insurance company, by controlling our behavior. In this case, our tastes in food.

The dangers of excessive salt use have been long documented. So have the dangers of smoking tobacco, the single most addictive and harmful drug known to man, yet tobacco is still legal to buy or to grow in your back yard. The difference is profit. Taxes on tobacco sales bring our government huge profits far beyond the Medicare payout for tobacco related illness. Salt does not.

The Food and Drug Administration has been harassing makers of vitamin supplements for years, trying to limit or prevent their sale, because some vitamins can eliminate the need for some costly drugs, and the drug makers don’t like that. The FDA is in the pay of the drug makers and has outlawed the ability of the vitamin makers to make any statements even vaguely referring to health in regard to their products.

Currently, the FDA’s Food Modernization Act (S. 510) has passed the House of Representatives and greatly restricts the sale and purchase of herbal and nutritional supplements. Vitamins, in other words. Supplements under these provisions are addressed more like pharmaceutical drugs, which require extensive time and enormous expense to get government approval. Health freedom advocates lobbied Senators such as Orrin Hatch (R) and Tom Harkin (D) to modify the legislation and new language has been inserted in the bill stating that “Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the regulation of dietary supplements.” The bill has yet to pass the Senate and the new language is not in the version passed by the House. So the chance that ordinary vitamins can still be outlawed still exists.

Every time our government starts expressing concerns about our health, I start wondering what they’re going to make us do or take away from us next to save them money or increase their income at our expense, because their supposed caring about our state of health is hypocrisy in its highest form. It’s the money.

You want to make a fortune? Design, patent and market a pocket salt shaker, pre-filled and disposable, that will not come open in a pocket or purse. Make mens and womens versions and put them on sale in displays at fast food counters and convenience stores.

LOS ANGELES — The head of the nation’s largest Roman Catholic archdiocese has condemned a proposed Arizona crackdown on illegal immigrants, saying it encourages people to turn on each other in Nazi- and Soviet-style repression.

Arizona has an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants. Proponents of the bill say it was prompted by concerns over the cost of providing services to illegal immigrants and by the slaying of an Arizona rancher near the Mexican border this month. Authorities believe he was fatally shot by an illegal immigrant possibly connected to a drug smuggling cartel.

Republican Arizona Sen. Russell Pearce, who sponsored the bill, has said it will take handcuffs off police and put them on violent criminals.

But Cardinal Mahony, whose archdiocese has a huge Hispanic immigrant population, said the Arizona Legislature was passing “the country’s most retrogressive, mean-spirited, and useless anti-immigrant law.”

When our Constitutional laws separating church and state protect the Catholic Church, you never hear a whisper. They’re just happy as clams. But when it comes to interfering in our politics and trying to overwhelm our Constitution when it suits their purposes, they scream and cry and swing right into action.

460,000 illegal aliens in that desert state and virtually all of them Roman Catholics, and suddenly a law to protect the state causes this asshole Catholic priest to call Arizona legislators Nazis. Well guess what, Mahoney, you utter ass, YOU are the Nazi. YOU are the one trying to subvert law and justice, YOU are the one practicing treason against the United States, and you should be put up against a wall and shot Nazi or Soviet style, since you’re so fond of calling others that.

I never paid much attention to the Catholic Church until all the child abuse started happening, and even then didn’t look at it in any depth until the Pope himself started issuing all those assinine denials. That got my full attention. Instead of doing what any decent, ordinary citizen anywhere would do, which is turning those pedophiles in to the law, he still continues to protect them and even claims that “the church will punish them” to keep them safe from prison. To continue to protect them.

Now we have this L.A. Cardinal, chief high muckymuck of the most Catholic illegal alien infested city in the entire country, calling people vile names in order to protect his flock of criminals. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

I have utterly lost all respect I ever had for anything Catholic. Anyone who continues to call him or herself a Catholic is either an idiot or a fool. Catholicism is no better than Islam when it comes to its total lack of human decency. If this offends you, then take your damned blinders off and see the light. You’ve been brainwashed since birth.

The 21-year-old fat person above with the well-deserved black eye, from the sounds of it, is in jail at the moment, being unable to raise the $12,000 bail needed to free him until he goes to court. Police identified that individual as 21-year-old Matthew Clemmens from Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

It seems porky Mr. Clemmons and friends were sitting directly behind an off-duty police officer and his two young daughters, aged 14 and 11, at a Phillies baseball game. The officer, Captain Michael Vangelo, with the Easton Police Department, ( a captain, no less. Oh, Porky, what a bad choice you made for someone to harass) described Porky’s behavior as “disgusting”. “When I say disgusting, there was not only insults and vulgarities directed at us, but also beer was thrown at us,” Vangelo told Eyewitness News.

“I actually heard the individual behind me say, ‘I’m gonna get sick’, then I couldn’t believe what I saw. He actually had his fingers down his mouth and into his throat to make himself vomit. He vomited and lurched forward and it was hitting my daughter.” The 11-year-old one.

At that point, Captain Vangelo and a few other baseball fans nearby took action and “held Clemmens down until police arrived.” Considering Porky’s black eye, it came to a little more than that and now Porky is whining that he was a victim of “police brutality”.

Normally, when I hear of a case of police brutality, I’m less than open-minded. I figure the cop or cops involved probably were brutal, because I’ve seen plenty of it and a lot of cops do behave pretty damn abusively. They get a uniform, badge and gun and think they have power of life and death over the rest of us, up until they go to prison for their bad judgement and brutal behavior.

In this case, however, the witnesses side with the officer, and so do I. Puking on a little 11 year old girl is inexcusable even if it wasn’t intended, and it appears that this was. Porky sounds to me like just one more fat bastard bully picking on a child, and chances are it was one of the fans who punched him in the eye.

With any luck, he’ll get the crap beat out of him repeatedly by his fellow inmates before he’s all done with this, and that may well be a few years down the road. What a jerk!

A new word has been added to the English Mangleage, “vajazzling”, a combination of dazzling and, yes, vagina. See below.

Vajazzling is the practice of decorating one’s vagina, if one is a female and happens to have a vagina, with glue-on rhinestones. Also, creating a trail leading to said vagina is obviously part of this particular art form. I have to say, if you’re going naked to the ball, what better way to do it?

The road to Hell may be paved with good intentions but the road to to Six Flags, St. Louis, Mo. will be paved with pig crap.

Innoventor is an Earth City-based engineering and design firm that perfected the process of converting the animal waste into a bio-oil used in asphalt binder, and the very first use of pig-crap based asphalt is going to be spread this coming Wednesday on a 500 foot stretch of road.

Yes. The asphalt does reek of pig shit but those easy-going country folks say they don’t mind, since they all raise pigs anyway. You know, that stuff would be just the thing to repair Washington D.C. streets with. Then the town would smell like the rhetoric. But the thing I really wonder about is, when you drive over it, does it make your tires squeal?

The Catholic Church has been steadily denying that there is any more child abuse going on within their priesthood than is normal or average for the general public.

While not making any statements or references regarding the undoubtedly high (probably overwhelming) number of homosexual priests, they’ve been pointing the finger of blame not at celibacy but at homosexuality as the source of all the outrageous and continuous sexual assaults on children.

Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, stated that “Many psychologists, many psychiatrists have demonstrated that there is no relationship between celibacy and pedophilia but many others have demonstrated, I was told recently, that there is a relationship between homosexuality and pedophilia.”

Now homosexual activist groups are verbally fighting back, with their spokespeople responding that “It is desperate people trying to come out with desperate answers,” and “The Vatican is trying to deflect attention from the sex crimes of Catholic clergy by blaming gay people.” Both sides need to recognize that the Catholic clergy IS mostly homosexuals but neither side wants to. The Catholics denounce homosexuality as a sin and the homosexual groups want to distance themselves from the taint of pedophilia.

The public isn’t stupid and very few of us are homosexual. According to Wikipedia, no more than 3% at most of the population is homosexual, males and females. Furthermore most adults have children whom they wish to protect from the outrages of child molesters.

The denials of both the Church and the homosexuals is making both sides look worse in the eyes of the rest of us. We know the Church is lying and with the homo groups doing their own denying now, that makes them look like liars too, which they are. Both sides are now pouring out deceptive propaganda which either omits embarassing facts or is outright lies. The Pope is calling the revelations of child sex abuse “rumors” and “Petty gossip”, and urges priests to “repent” rather than order them to face prosecution like any other sex offender.

Of the many things that are wrong in our world today, two of them are the Catholic Church and the rise of homosexual activism and both are a danger to children. The Catholic Church does not even slightly represent the teachings of Jesus Christ, who preached truth, honesty and the protection of children. Instead it’s all about power, control and domination. The Catholic Church, don’t forget, is the monster that gave humanity the Inquisition, with it’s horrible tortures and suppression of science and truth. Today it gives humanity the sexual torture of children and continues unabated in suppression of truth. It really hasn’t changed at all.

Rising to this same level of corruption is homosexual activism, which is completely hedonistic in nature, disregards the truth, is totally in denial and unconcerned with child welfare or any other kind of welfare other than promoting their own agenda of power, control and domination.

No wonder they’re fighting each other. If the Catholic Church ever came out of the closet, revealed the level of homosexuality within it and openly declared FOR homosexuality, it would self-destruct even as the two sides tried joining forces.

I think it’s hilarious in a way. The Church of Homosexuality doesn’t dare admit what it is, and will continue to heap abuse on homosexuals as being sinful and pedophiles in order to protect its false image, and the homosexuals will continue to lie and deny that being homosexual has anything to do with child sex abuse, and fight with the same Church that they themselves dominate.

With any luck, the fight between them will finally overcome all the Political Correctness and bring public perception of them both into line with reality. It would be nice.

Only in the UK could this ever happen. There’s just something magical about the British Isles, that begat leprechauns and elves and fairies and dwarves and J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings trilogy, Robin Hood and King Arthur’s Knights of the Round Table. Let’s not forget Merlin, either, and Stonehenge and all those crop circles. The British Isles are just plain Special.

Which is why it’s almost normal that a woman in the United Kingdom says she has the urge to have sex up to 10 times a day after she fell off her Wii Fit board.

“It began as a twinge down below before surging through my body. Sometimes it built up into a trembling orgasm,” Amanda Flowers of Manchester told the U.K.’s Daily Star.

A Wii board is a balance board that apparently is computerized and used to exercise with. I don’t have one and don’t pretend to know any more about the gadget. It sits flat on the ground from the looks of it, and is maybe an inch or so high, so how you fall off one is a mystery. Even so, I heartily recommend that all women of legal age be given one of these free. England being a socialist state, surely the powers that be can see the value in adding Wii boards to their list of welfare giveaway items for women.

Considering the burgeoning population of the UK these days, perhaps a prerequisite to receiving one of these would be that the recipient first either have her tubes tied or be on the pill. Otherwise I can imagine the resultant teeming masses of people spilling off the crowds edges into the Thames and over the Cliffs of Dover. Messy to say the least.

One should be cautioned by this revelation of the side effects of technological advancement. The simplest seeming gadget may have the potential to alter the course of humanity. Or at least have us all screwing like rabbits.

Totally unrelated but worthy of discussion is the sad tale of the 7 year old Russian boy who was adopted by Torry Ann Hansen, a registered nurse from Shelbyville, Tenn. She said the boy was “violent and has severe psychopathic issues,” and sent this small child back to Russia alone and unattended, with a note blaming the Russian orphanage workers for lying to her.

The Russians say the boy behaves normally and has no such problems, and now the Russians have halted all American adoptions until a new agreement can be worked out between the U.S. and Russia, and if the Russians don’t demand stiff legal penalties for this sort of child abuse, I’ll be amazed. This woman may or may not be telling the truth, but considering her own behavior, I seriously doubt her veracity. You don’t send a small child alone on a plane to Russia with only a note of explanation.

What you do is contact the Russian authorities and discuss the supposed problem. You contact the nearest Russian embassy. You get hold of those in charge of these adoptions and even if you can’t reach agreement, you at least take the boy to the Russian embassy, you don’t send him off on a trans-Atlantic flight alone.

Because that’s just plain nuts. I can’t even imagine the mental devastation that little boy has suffered, leaving a Russian orphanage for his new home in America, only to be rejected and sent back alone to the orphanage again. This woman is a nurse? How would you like such an unfeeling bitch hovering over YOU in the hospital, in charge of your welfare as you lay there, sick or injured, and helpless? What a nightmare.

One of the new rules the Russians should impose is a thorough psychological checkup by proven professionals, both here and in Russia, to determine the fitness of those who would adopt. Fourteen Russian children have died of abuse or neglect at their hands of the adoptive American parents since 1996. That’s one child a year, and that’s one child a year too many.

Using the latest computer graphics techniques combined with psychological profiling, a composite photograph of the faces of Barack Hussein Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid has been created which reveals their true character and which may be viewed here.

News of the Mexican drug wars that have spilled over into the United States has been conspicuously lacking lately. A little digging found only this and one other recent news article, neither of which has been reported by any of our national media that I know of.

The death count of the two year drug war between Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman’s Sinaloa cartel and the rival Juarez gang is claimed to be “over” 5000. I bet at least another couple thousand over, since no one was really concerned about it enough to keep an accurate count.

Anyway, today it was quietly announced by the Associated Press that the Sinaloa cartel has been declared the winner of control over the coveted trafficking routes through Ciudad Juarez. They have done this with the very violent assistance of the Mexican Army.

Several of Guzman’s rival kingpins have been taken down by President Calderon’s intensified, military-led crackdown on drug trafficking, including Arturo Beltran Leyva, who was killed in a shootout with Mexican marines in December, a year after his gang is believed to have split with the Sinaloa cartel.

Calderon, of course, insists that he’s directing the Army to attack all the drug gangs equally, which is utter BS. What he’s obviously done is make a deal with Sinaloa that greatly enriches him while keeping up the appearance that he’s helping the U.S army stop the drug trade, keeping THAT money coming in as well. The reality is that the drug traffic into the U.S. remains exactly the same.

Sinaloa’s Guzman is now listed in Forbes as one of the worlds richest billionaires and keeps getting richer. Does that sound like someone under attack by his government? Because of Mexican Pres. Calderon’s “evenhandedness”, the Sinaloa cartel is now “the most powerful drug trafficking organization in the world” according to U.S. law enforcement.

The U.S. military has stepped up involvement on the Mexican side of the border, teaming with the corrupt Mexican Federales in this one-sided war, and the lack of decent discipline and training of the Mexicans is tragically apparent. “On Jan. 31, an armed commando unit pulled up to a house in a working-class neighborhood in Ciudad Juarez on the Mexican side of the border with the United States. Inside the house, 60 teenagers were celebrating a friend’s birthday. Wielding high-caliber weapons, the commandos opened fire on the kids, killed 15 of them, robbed the house, and then drove away.”

In another of many despicable crimes, the Mexican army shot and killed two children riding in their family car at a checkpoint in an act of drug-war related assassination.

The Obama administration has sent in diplomatic reinforcements to support Calderon’s drug war and continues to provide military support in spite of the clear fact that Guzman’s Sinaloa cartel is being left alone. Billionaire Guzman.

It can’t be said that Obama is even slightly concerned about the flow of drugs over our border. What can be said is that he’s a willing partner in it. Anything that takes down America from being a prosperous democracy and capitalistic society is welcomed. Obama is being called a Socialist now, finally, in our media, but they need to go it just a little further. He’s a Radical Socialist, a Marxist, and his vision of transforming America is to bring about total government domination and control. Slavery, to put it plainly.

So don’t speak of the Mexican drug war, because if you look at it too closely you might come to the same conclusion I have. Shhhhhh.

Sorry for the bad pun but I just can’t help myself: It reminds me of an old Calypso song, TALLY me BANanas…
because the whole Afghan thing is bananas.

Afghan president Hamid Karzai has verbally assaulted the United States for the second time just this week, saying in what he thought was a private meeting with a bunch of other Afghan politicos, that the U.S. was “meddling and interfering in Afghan affairs” and that the Taliban would become a legitimate resistance movement if the U.S. didn’t stop.

What the Hell does he think it is now? A Boy Scout jamboree? This jackass even suggested he might join the Taliban himself if the U.N. didn’t stop interfering in his rigged elections.

He and his government are being propped up with billions of dollars of U.S. aid and 100,000 troops who are fighting the Taliban, yet he bites the hand that feeds him, us, amongst his own politicians. This guy is exactly like every single other Arab we have ever dealt with in the Middle East, he smiles and nods his head in agreement and then as soon as our backs are turned he reviles us and plots and schemes against us and everyone else in sight. Every damned one of them does the same thing. They’re living cliche’s.

Karzai will never cooperate in ridding Afghanistan of the Taliban because, like the jerkoffs in Iraq, he keeps trying to play one side against the other to gain advantage for himself. The idea of gaining advantage for his country never enters his head, the idea of seeing the Afghan people prosper means absolutely nothing to him. He’s out only for himself.

When we went in there and rousted out the Taliban, and released those abused people from the iron domination of those radicals, it was a good thing we did and I was happy for the Afghanis that they’d been freed from such terrible subjugation. Yet after all this time, we’re still fighting them. Why? Because they keep getting more Afghan recruits.

Seems to me that makes this a civil war that we’ve taken sides on, in a nation so backward that it truly is just barely beyond the stone age. The only difference is that these cave men have guns.

Either we stay there forever and never leave or we get out and let them work out their own destiny. Let’s face it, Afghanistan’s primary resources are dirt and rocks. Also their secondary resources. They don’t matter except to themselves. We could forget the Taliban, go into the hills with our 100,000 troops and wipe out Osama and his Al Qaeda gang and leave in short order, instead of fighting a constantly renewing bunch of fanatic Afghanis.

After all these years of being there we still allow the opium crops to be grown that finance the Taliban instead of wiping them out and setting the farmers up with food crops to grow, no doubt because Karzai also gets a kickback from the dope growing. This is no way to fight a war to win it.

It’s time to hand Afghanistan back to the Afghanis and bring our troops home. It’s a waste of lives and money that’s accomplished absolutely nothing since it began, as everything will go back to being the way it was just as soon as we leave. Not counting all the dead people, of course, and all those now very wealthy Afghan politicians who’ve been skimming cream off our financial aid.

Seriously. It doesn’t look good. Check it out: Climate change is happening and the glaciers are melting and the ocean is rising. Regardless of the cause of it, planetary weather is becoming more violent and the climatologists say every year that it’s happening much faster than they’d predected the year before. So is there a finale to this, an approximate end date or turnaround period? Or do we flip over into an Ice Age again?

Speaking of flipping over, NASA says the Sun will reverse its magnetic poles in 2012 and this may cause Earth to do the same.

Speaking of 2012, on December 21, the Winter Solstice, the axis of Earth will be in perfect alignment with the center of our galaxy. This happens only once every 25,000 years.

The Mayan Calendar also happens to end, meaning “We’re all out of days, folks”, on Dec. 21, 2012. This could be taken as a coincidence if it weren’t for the fact that the calendar also predicted the arrival by ship of white-skinned, bearded “gods” on March 5, 1519, and did this in the 8th Century. Not proof of anything but worthy of mention. Yes, that was the date the Spaniards landed.

Another worth at least mentioning is that the ancient Chinese I Ching, used to predict and advise, has within it a code that gives a world end date of Dec. 21, 2012. Pretty “blue-sky” sounding, but I’m throwing it into the mix.

Back to the real, tangible stuff, Iran is on course to make nuclear weapons. It’s 2010 now. How much longer until they get The Bomb? This is important as they openly state they intend to destroy Israel, and it’s an easy guess how they plan to do this. Israel would have to retaliate with nukes, and even if that didn’t cause a world war to break out, it would cut back dramatically on the flow of Arab oil to the West, pretty much wrecking our economies. Literally everything runs on oil one way or another. Without oil, everything will grind to a halt. No farming, no trucks delivering stuff to stores, no one drives to work, the power grids shut down, manufacturing ceases. Try converging that with your reality.

Speaking of oil, Obama the Left Wing Liberal Environmentalist Oil Hater has just opened up coastal oil drilling, citing a need to decrease our dependency on foreign oil. Does this mean we need to get that oil pumping before Iran and Israel go to it? Looks like it. The Iranians probably need just a few more years to reach their goal. Say, in 2012 and Obama’s sure been pushing Israel to the side in favor of the Arabs in the meantime. In preparation? Converge this with the rest of events.

Speaking of attacks, Bharat Verma, Editor of the Indian Defence Review, has projected that China will attack India by 2012 to divert the attention of its own people from “unprecedented” internal dissent, growing unemployment and financial problems that are threatening the hold of Communists in that country. This one is a maybe, but converge it just for the sake of it.

Attacks by Muslims are constantly in the news now, they’re committing atrocities all over the planet, against each other and against everyone else, and for just about every conceivable reason. Islam is a charnel house of bloodily competitive sects whose members don’t hesitate to murder each other in the name of their satanic god, and even while the Islamics are trying to take over Western civilization, they are and will continue to explode and stab and shoot each other. Converge this fact with all the others.

There’s a rapidly rising competition growing between the two major proselytizing purveyors of enslaving hocus-pocus, the Catholics and the Islamics, while the Catholic Church itself is disintegrating under the onslaught of child sex abuse revelations, and even this current Pope is caught up in it. All his fellow priests who have anything to say about anything are speaking up for him, OF COURSE, but that’s like being applauded by the Devil.

Speaking of the Pope, another very old prediction I mentioned here already has this one as the second to last one. I can see that coming true considering the state the Catholic Church is in now. Converge this.

Speaking of Obama, for the first time in American history we have a Marxist president who’s goal is to bring down our economy in order to remake our nation into a socialist state, very likely on the same order as his friend in Venezuela, Socialist dictator Hugo Chavez. Obama is aiming for total control and his presidency expires in… Yep, that’s right. December of 2012. Will we still be a free country in another 2 years and 9 months? Who knows, but converge that one anyway.

Events are converging upon the human race like nothing ever before in our known history, and they’re all converging in or about the year 2012. Throw in some major disaster, like the Haitian earthquake, only on a much larger scale, something that affects half the planet, and it’s really going to be rock and roll time. It could happen.

It’s true that an apparently unrelated large bunch of very negative events are coming together within a short time frame, and I probably left a few off the list that you may know about. It may all turn out to be another false alarm like the supposed Year 2000 global computer crash, or it may not. We’ll know when the time comes.
