After watching President Obama address the nation in a fairly forthright way, not all of it,by any stretch of the imagination,I am now watching Bobby Jindal try and rebut that and it is FAIL, 1.0.
Bragging about the response to Katrina is a clue, ya fucking idiot.
Refering to how awesome that response was about six times is a complete failure, just like the actual response.
The fact that New Orleans is still a fucking dumpster turned upside down, three years later?
Go Fuck Yourself and Shut Yer Fucking Pie Hole Dude.
Oh, Awesome Fucking Bonus Round!
The little fucking twit got his panties in a twist because there is some money in the fiasco for volcano monitoring and he just cannot see the wisdom of that and was OPENLY derisive of that funding.
Let me explain something to you, you stupid fucking idiot.
Ever heard of Hawaii?
I do believe that is one of the United States?
Like ,one of the last ones ?
HMMM?
I think, they have a few and I think, they tend to go off and , like, bury whole fucking towns?
Geeze, maybe it's just me.
Does the term Flatlander ever come up in conversations?
Wait, Wait,!
Crap, then there is that Alaska place, you know, where that hot little Milf you guys wanted for the Vice President?
Yeah, that place.
By the way, it is bigger than Texas and WAY the fuck bigger than Louisiana, last I checked, yeah they have volcano's too.
Oh wait, gee , I ain't done schooling yer stupid fucking ass.
Here is the abbreviated list, take my word for it, there are hundreds more, they call them vents.
I have actually hiked or visited quite a few of these sleeping monsters in my day.
Mt. St. Helens?
Let me refresh your memory.
Before 1980,
May 18th, 1980,
Shortly afterwards,
Just for your information, the ash from that little fire cracker shut down the Columbia River, the largest River in the Pacific Northwest, killed over 50 people and destroyed a few towns, wiped out a few hundred square miles of forest,killed thousands of animals, sterilized a couple of lakes full of trout and wiped out an entire salmon run, choked every river around it for miles and cost hundreds of millions of FEDERAL DOLLARS just to re open the biggest water way for traffic involving four states and parts of Canada. The ash from that eruption went all the way around the world.
Guess what, Mr. I don't want to pay for monitoring?
I busted my narrow ass as part of a massive dredging project cleaning that mess enough to get the Columbia open AND the Cowlitz river too.
The area is still to this day completely fucked up and the ash from that eruption is still everywhere. There are still giant mountains of ash and artificial islands a mile long , twenty nine fucking years later.
Damn, I certainly would hate for your ass to pay one fucking nickel for any monitoring, ya know.
Kiss my ass you ignorant fuck.
Next?
Portland Oregon.
Ever heard of that place?
Yeah, they actually have a volcano inside the city limits, Mt Tabor.
I actually lived right at the bottom of it. Look it up.
Not to mention, Mount Hood.
Seventy five miles out of town, it could bury the whole fucking town in about an hour.
Oh, that is also where this major city gets its water supply from.
Time out, no piece of shit politician is going to take up a second of my time if my beautiful daughter wants to come over and spend a little time with her asshole Dad.
Ok, I'm back.
Back to the subject here, Mr. Jindal, have you ever heard of a U.S.city called Seattle?
How about Mt. Rainier?
That volcano has been documented to completely bury a swath a mile wide and fifty miles down stream, when it has blown in the past. It is a lot farther inland and a whole lot bigger in person than one would imagine.
See the picture below.
Tell me how you are so against the expenditure for volcano monitoring after you had a weeks worth of warning from the National Weather System, paid for by the Federal Government, and fucked that off to the point a major United States City drowned, along with over a thousand residents and caused the break down of the rule of law, when a Category 5 Hurricane spent a little time along the coast in your neighborhood?
Fuck You Dude.
Shut Yer Fucking Mouth about things you have no clue about, eh?
I still can't make a Gumbo worth a shit, but I ain't getting on National television telling everyone else how the guy in Duluth can't either but ya damn well better not pay for him to find out that a fucking natural disaster is imminent and he might need to like, evacuate so him and his family don't get fucking incinerated because a size large sulphur fart is coming down the pipe out of the biggest alimentary canal the world has ever seen and there just happens to be a few thousand years of ice and snow flying along with it.
I am so sick of you ignorant cocksuckers in the Republican party flailing away trying to convince my ass that you have ONE SINGLE ANSWER FOR ANYTHING that at this point, I would seriously consider a recipe for cat piss to be a major improvement out of you fucking idiots.
Fuck off and get the hell back to taking care of the people who elected your dumb fucking ass, they obviously need it more that I need you to pass judgment on programs designed to protect me and a few MILLION other neighbors from a natural disaster that you have proven you have ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING IDEA THAT IS A REAL THREAT.
Jeez, I forgot, they think the world is flat.
Never seen a fucking Volcano?
Let me help you,
Any idea how they get so big?
Ever heard of Subduction zones and Continental drift?
Oh, excuse me, of course you haven't.
I saw on the news today that you are a Rhodes Scholar.
The dumbing down of America must be ahead of schedule.
Wish I'd said that.
ReplyDeleteHow are the new digs coming?
Ain't had time to go there.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I think I updated this post a couple times since you commented.
Thanks fer stopping by man.
*standing on chair clapping*
ReplyDeletethat is one fine rant dood - wish our media would follow your lead and take those forking talking points and shred them with the facts.
Any money there for Busted monitoring? Eruptions are good sometimes too.
ReplyDeleteIn his defense, Jindal is a douchebag, so anything he says should be considered with that in mind.
It all reminds me of those "community organizer" barbs Palin spouted last summer. They're being snide just because they think it sounds good, having no fucking clue what the hell they're talking about. I think Jindal killed all presidential hopes last night, though I'm sure they weren't all that realistic in the first place.
ReplyDeleteWhat? we have to have someone give a response after Obama's speech, Jeezus christ! Talk about a tough act to follow.
ReplyDeleteHey! call up that convenience store guy down in lousianna and see if he'll do it. Should be good for a laugh!
busted, you rawk. Your rants are always "I wish i'd said that." *applauds*
ReplyDeleteExcellent post, Busted.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I couldn't have come close to what you said.
Thanks again, pal.
This will be a rant to remember. I wonder if Jinny thinks we can just sacrafice a virgin to the volcano gods? Let's see are there any virgins left in Louisiania?
ReplyDeleteGreat post, my man! I'm grinning with glee as I write this out!
ReplyDeleteThink you about said it all!
Thanks for the smackdown! I cannot believe that guy. I had read some articles that praised him in years past, but this was a major wipeout for Jindal. How long can he hide? People will point and laugh for a long time. So glad you tackled the volcano monitoring. Think we're going to hear anything about wasteful spending on levee monitoring?
ReplyDeleteOne of the best posts/rants I've ever read!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, on a clear day (seldom any more) I can see Mts. Lassen and Shasta from a fire lookout near here.
Thanks folks, I am kind of blushing but outright bullshit from a potential Republican Presidential contender about a subject he doesn't know a fucking thing about on National television to make cheap political points is about is enough to piss me off. The fact that what he was deriding has a profound impact on a few million people clear across the country from the biggest Fail in history by his own party and DIRECTLY affects me, pissed me clear the fuck off, and as you see, I have personal experience on the matter.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by and commenting.
'Nucks, ya fuckin' inspired me. Not as good as yours, but pretty good for me.
ReplyDeleteBravo Busted!
ReplyDeleteI found a map of potentially active volcanos here in the US...
http://vulcan.wr.usgs.gov/LivingWith/VolcanicPast/Notes/map_potentially_active.html
That's a lot of monitoring, looks like.
Busted A+
ReplyDeleteGreat rant! And double great for the research about volcanoes and their pictures.

Thank YOU, Onery! I am 30 miles from Rainier and would like to drop Jindal right up there on the cone, let HIM monitor for a while, as a public service!
ReplyDelete::::::goes back to singing lullabies to the sleepy volcanoes::::::
don't hold back, busted: tell us how you really feel... :~)
ReplyDelete- punaise
Great rant, Busted! Haven't been here before but adding you to my 'list'. Need the laughs.
ReplyDeleteAlso - you are the only one so far that has mentioned Hawaii. Lots of talk about Alaska, West Coast, and the Yellowstone caldera - but other than you, nothing on Hawaii.
BTW, I read somewhere that there is a worrisome increase in activity in one of the big boys up in Alaska, but because of NO MONEY the USGS has been unable to set up the kinds of monitoring equipment they need to keep an eye on it. And yes, it is next to Anchorage.
So, did Bobby just go directly from Louisiana to England when he went to Oxford? Has he never visited any other part of America? Considering that Mt. St. Helens happened when he was in his teens, you'd think he'd have remembered it.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, great rant, Busted. I'd say you schooled that fool, but some folks really are resistant to schooling.
I've uncovered what I am told is a partial list of things that the Party of No will seek to ensure is never monitored again:

Mr. Natural,
ReplyDeleteYa got a link to wichever Rude one ya are talking about?
There are not too many out there ruder than I am.
I think it is very important for each of us to take personal responsibility for geothermal tectonic activity. Eleventeen fucktillion gigajoules of magmatic energy is no match for the home-spun down-to-earth common-sense ingenuity of real hard-working Americans.
