This Guy Is In Jail And Rumsfield, Yoo, AddingtonAnd Cheney Aren't?

This is how fucked up we are.
A guy gets five years after a plea bargain to dump a FIFTY year sentence for dealing seeds.
The Neocon bastards that started a war of convenience that killed a million people, women and children, walk around with body guards we are paying for.
WTF is wrong with this picture?



I call Bullshit and I still want to see BushCo in fucking jail.

H/T the always awesome DarkBlack. Get yer ass over there and see what a wicked sense of humor will do for ya.

DB? Yer the shit dude!

Thanks for being a friend my man.

Fall My Ass!

I have cats crawling all over me and a little space heater going full blast.

The heavy blankets are out and my fucking hands are freezing.

It is not even October yet.

I am digging out the old fashioned back door thermal underwear tomorrow.

Sheeeit, it got cold around here in a hurry!

Bustedus Domesticus, KP Duty

Yeah yeah, I could be ranting about those fucking cocksuckers and the Health Care debate but no.
We are fucked, they are the cat shit under my heel and have a nice fucking day.

In the mean time, I am having to do the dishes.
I HATE doing dishes but while I am typing and waiting for the wrinkles to come out of my fingers, here are a few observations.

Fuck the Teflon pans.
I wouldn't feed my fucking cats out of a Teflon Frying Pan.

Get ya some Cast Iron and take care of it.

They say ya can't do tomato sauce and ya can't wash them in a sink full of dishes because ya lose the oil layer that keeps them Non Stick.
Yes and no.

Yes, Cast Iron is the best non stick cook ware out there because it is dependent on a layer of oil that gets into the pores of the cast iron and seals the pores off and it only gets better the longer you cook with it without scouring out that layer of oil.

I have used vegetable oil to season some cast iron but I am here to tell ya, use some Bacon.

No.
Ya don't have to bake the pans in an oven, heat 'em up on a burner and slather some bacon grease around and then wipe 'em out and let them cool down and put 'em away.
I just did a 9 quart Dutch Oven, a Ten inch frying pan and a Twelve By Twelve Grilling pan.
This on top of the rest of my Cast Iron pans.

I also have a few cast Aluminum pans from my Grandmother that she has had from the early Fifties.
The handles are all gone but I snagged them before they got thrown out.
I also have some Aluminum pots from my other Grandma that has been gone over thirty years.
These I will boil things with but I ain't frying with.
.

Cast Iron is actually fairly easy to cook with and easy to take care of.
Think Pancakes. Yer Granny had it down.

Also Available On Eight Track Tape!

I just love Blue Gal, she is the the shit.
She has a post up at Crooks and Liars about Sarah Palin's new book encyclopedia of random attempts at vocal expression.

What a Stupid Bint.

I thought she was like, moving to fucking Idaho or something.
Last I heard, she was divorcing the snow mobile guy and taking the rest of her brood some where were the White Hoods WERE the hood.

What The Fuck Ever.

I was seriously rooting for her to hook up with that fake plumber idiot and skulk off to oblivion.
Apparently no such luck.

Ahh well. I can't wait for the next election.

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHaHAAAAAAAAA!

Jesus is that going to be entertaining.

Palin/ Cheney!
No not THAT Cheney, this one.

OMFG, what a cat fight that would be.

My money is on the Thrilla From Wasilla, she is used to gutting hairy animals with big teeth.

Yay!! It's Monday!

Suck my ass.

Oakland VS Denver

I hope The Raiders Kick Denvers ass.
Fuck Denver.

I'll be home sometime later today but I have a buttload of things to do when I get there. We shall see what kind of mood I am in if Oakland fucks this up.

Thanks fer stopping by.

Update;

I am beyond any personal insults.
I was born in Oakland in 1960, I am a life long fan.
The team came into existence in 1959.

Fuck Denver , Fuck The Fucking SeaHawks and Fuck Me.

What?
They lost again?

I will be having a personal conversation with someone on the impact of that in my life.

No money was transferred as a result of this conversation.

Something To Look Forward To

Like this could never happen in your neighborhood?


In Honduras, break in curfew allows residents to buy essentials.

For a few hours Wednesday, Honduras' political drama gave way to more important matters -- like buying groceries and filling gas tanks.

Streets in the capital, Tegucigalpa, were clogged with frantic shoppers after the country's interim rulers briefly lifted a nationwide curfew to let residents restock shelves. Meanwhile, the deposed president, Manuel Zelaya, remained hunkered in a foreign embassy.

It was the first chance for residents to get out since Monday, when Zelaya sneaked back into Honduras and the de facto government abruptly imposed the shutdown. The curfew was to resume later Wednesday.

"I haven't had food at home for three days because the curfew caught us by surprise. I have to get milk for my three children," said Mariega Garcia, a 40-year-old administrator.

Maria Cristina Juanes, a 41-year-old maid, waited in a long line in her impoverished neighborhood to buy milk and cheese. "We don't know what's going to happen," she said. "We only have God on our side."

The government lifted the curfew after a night of scattered clashes in Tegucigalpa. The confrontations left one man dead, authorities said, and a number of stores were looted or vandalized. Police arrested more than 100 people.

Sure it can, which is why everyone should have at least two weeks worth of food, water and essentials.

That being said, I have a confession to make.

I was doing fairly well with my preps until my neighbors started falling on hard times and I decided to help them out.
After a while I noticed who was and who wasn't trying to help themselves and shut it off.
In the mean time, I pretty well put myself back in a bad position, as I recently found out.

I have been sick for the last three days with what I can only describe as food poisoning.
Flat on my back when I wasn't retching, throwing up, sitting on the terlet at moments without a minutes warning and sleeping a great deal.

I finally felt better enough to try and hold something down and went looking.
Bad news Busted, ya gave most of it away.
I couldn't even find a can of chicken noodle soup OR a bottle of Seven Up.

That just changed everything.

I am going to get back on the ball and stock this place back up, ASAP.

The Dollar Store, here I come. That is the closest place that has the best deals, although I tend to keep my eye out for specials on other needs.
There will be nothing said to any neighbors, I will do it after dark and I WILL get this place back where it was and then some.

Let this be a lesson to the rest of ya.
It's OK to help someone in need, just not to the point it is detrimental to your own survival.
My bad, lesson learned.

Note to self, get some more Pepto Bismal.

The New Guy Gets It

Say what you will, Al Franken is trying to protect our Constitutional Rights against Unreasonable Search and Seizure, while Obama is trying to get sections of the (SPIT) Patriot Act extended.

Good on ya dude.
The Patriot Act gutted our Constitution and is anathema to a free society.


Al Franken Reads the 4th Amendment to Justice Department Official

Just in case he wasn’t familiar with it, Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) decided to read the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution to David Kris, assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s National Security Division, who was testifying to the Senate Judiciary Committee today to urge reauthorization of expiring provisions of the USA Patriot Act.

snip

Noting that he received a copy of the Constitution when he was sworn in as a senator, he proceeded to read it to Kris, emphasizing this part: “no Warrants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”

“That’s pretty explicit language,” noted Franken, asking Kris how the “roving wiretap” provision of the Patriot Act can meet that requirement if it doesn’t require the government to name its target.

H/T Rawstory for the link.

I can haz my fucking rights back now?

UPDATE;

Russ Fiengold rips this guy a new asshole too, when he finds out that the "Sneek And Peek" provision has been used for drug enforcement 760 time out of 763.
That's THREE times they have used the Patriot Act provision to break into peoples homes without a warrant in their War on Terror, actually looking for terrorists!

Found via Huffpo, go read this,

WATCH: DoJ Official Blows Cover Off PATRIOT Act

In the debate over the PATRIOT Act, the Bush White House insisted it needed the authority to search people's homes without their permission or knowledge so that terrorists wouldn't be tipped off that they're under investigation.

Now that the authority is law, how has the Department of Justice used the new power? To go after drug dealers.

Only three of the 763 "sneak-and-peek" requests in fiscal year 2008 involved terrorism cases, according to a July 2009 report from the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. Sixty-five percent were drug cases.

Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) quizzed Assistant Attorney General David Kris about the discrepancy at a hearing on the PATRIOT Act Wednesday. One might expect Kris to argue that there is a connection between drug trafficking and terrorism or that the administration is otherwise justified to use the authority by virtue of some other connection to terrorism.

He didn't even try. "This authority here on the sneak-and-peek side, on the criminal side, is not meant for intelligence. It's for criminal cases. So I guess it's not surprising to me that it applies in drug cases," Kris said.

"As I recall it was in something called the USA PATRIOT Act," Feingold quipped, "which was passed in a rush after an attack on 9/11 that had to do with terrorism it didn't have to do with regular, run-of-the-mill criminal cases. Let me tell you why I'm concerned about these numbers: That's not how this was sold to the American people. It was sold as stated on DoJ's website in 2005 as being necessary - quote - to conduct investigations without tipping off terrorists."

Kris responded by saying that some courts had already granted the Justice Department authority to conduct sneak-and-peeks. But Feingold countered that the PATRIOT Act codified and expanded that authority -- all under the guise of the war on terror.

Feingold, the lone vote against the PATRIOT Act when it was first passed, is introducing an amendment to curb its reach. "I'm going to say it's quite extraordinary to grant government agents the statutory authority to secretly break into Americans homes," he said.

Dirty sonsabitches.

Gop Fights Net Neutralty, Tilts At Windmills

These people need to be shut down and openly ridiculed.

Plan to keep Internet free of interference from ISPs draws opposition from GOP, service providers

Six Republican senators have introduced an amendment that would block the Federal Communications Commission from implementing its recently announced Net neutrality policy.

Texas Republican Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison introduced the amendment to an appropriations bill. It would prevent the FCC from getting funding for any initiative to uphold Net neutrality. According to The Hill, the co-sponsors are Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS), Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) Sen. John Ensign (R-NV), Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. David Vitter (R-LA).

The move appears to be an attempt to pre-empt the FCC's expected new policy to ensure that Internet service providers don't discriminate between different types of information on their networks.

On Monday, FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski gave a speech in which he outlined the FCC's plan to enforce Net neutrality, a position President Barack Obama held during his campaign for president.

You're Not The Boss Of Me

So says the Fed to Congress.

You sonsabitches are in for a surprise and it is long overdue.


From Rawstory,

The institution which creates and oversees America's currency wants to keep a "low profile," according to a published report on Monday, and may willing to dodge the U.S. Treasury in order to do so.

According to Bloomberg News, the Federal Reserve Bank will not submit to a voluntary public study of its internal structure and methods of governance, as it was requested to do so by Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.

My bold.

Frank: Bill Mandating "Complete Audit" Of The Fed Will Pass House In Fall

Via Huffpo.

Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, told a Massachusetts audience at a recent town hall that the House will pass legislation this fall mandating a "complete audit" of the Federal Reserve.

The bill to audit the Fed, H.R. 1207, was introduced by libertarian Fed critic Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) and is backed by well over a majority of the House. Frank's comment suggests it won't just be left to languish in committee.

"I want to restrict the power of the Fed in a number of ways," said Frank in response to a question about the bill.

"They have had since 1932... the right to intervene in the economy almost whenever they" wanted to, Frank said, noting that the Fed relied on its extraordinary lending power to forward billions to financial institutions last fall. He intends to curtail that lending power, he said.

"Finally we will subject them to a complete audit," he said. "I have been working with Ron Paul, the main sponsor of that bill. He agrees that we don't want to have the audit appear as if it is influencing monetary policy, because that would be inflationary and Ron and I agree on that."

Just fer shits and giggles, I'll throw this in too, also from HuffPo.


Fed Audit Bill Reaches 290 Cosponsors

Authored by longtime crusader for Fed transparency Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), the audit bill gained the support of more than half the House back in June, and has continued quietly gathering steam. Now the legislative process is beginning to catch up.

House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank's office released a tentative schedule for regulatory reform hearings that includes "Oversight and Audit Issues at the Federal Reserve System," scheduled for Friday, Sept. 25. When this final round of financial-regulation hearings concludes two weeks later, according to Frank's office, the committee will begin making revisions to the respective bills.

"I'm happy to say that we're going to have a hearing on that very soon," Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.), another Fed transparency champion, said on the House floor minutes after Frank's office made the announcement.

Have some of that shit you dirty motherfuckers.

There is a showdown coming and I for one can't fucking wait to see some daylight beamed into The Fed offices. This is what comes to mind,

The Dumbing Down Of America Is Complete

This shocks the hell out of me.


75 Percent of Oklahoma High School Students Can't Name the First President of the U.S.

It's not just Oklahoma, either.

A thousand students were given 10 questions drawn from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services item bank. Candidates for U.S. citizenship must answer six questions correctly in order to become citizens.

About 92 percent of the people who take the citizenship test pass on their first try, according to immigration service data. However, Oklahoma students did not fare as well. Only about 3 percent of the students surveyed would have passed the citizenship test.

Dutcher said this is not just a problem in Oklahoma. He said Arizona had similar results, which left him concerned for the entire country.

"Jefferson later said that a nation can't expect to be ignorant and free," Dutcher said. "It points to a real serious problem. We're not going to remain ignorant and free."

Just what the fuck are they teaching kids these days?

Basically, it is a giant fucking tax hike on the middle class and a huge give away to those fucking pricks in the insurance industry.
