South Remains Anti-Marriage

Oh today is so nice … new headline: “NC House passes anti-marriage amendment”

In this case, the region which traditionally opposed interracial marriage is now officially  opposed to same-gender marriage.  You will note that this is also a region of the country noted for out-of-wedlock births.  After all, The South is historically and devoutly Anti-Marriage … regardless of justification or excuse applied in any given era.

Actually, Southern idiot bigots can do whatever they want about marriage – the real issue is what the tax code recognizes.  Then too, there is what are allowed in inheritance laws – which will govern where people decide to live and the amount of tax revenue a state or municipality can expect to collect.  Since the south is also anti-education, they certainly do not need funds for that; they do not wish people (couples) to live there, so they don’t need roads … gee … they can be as poor and backward as they wish.

THE ECONOMIST missed the reality

“Osama bin Laden did not succeed in his loony goal to unite the world under a Muslim caliphate. But he did succeed in dragging us into two wars in the Muslim world.”

But the stated purpose of Osama bin Laden was two-fold: 1. Bankrupt America (run the National Debt up to a point where there would be a Budget Crisis of the type we saw last month)   2. Saddam Hussein must die.

Both were stated goals in the 1990’s -- achieved via Bush after 2001 … consider this statement from the article: “Between the Patriot Act, the establishment of the Transportation Security Administration and the Department of Homeland Security, Americans are subject to far more surveillance than a free people should be.”

Not only did Osama bin Laden achieve his two stated & publicized goals, but he also managed restructure of the American Society in preparation for the Islamic nation of the future.  Idiots believe that everyone in the world thinks as short term as they do.  In reality, there is a long-term Islamic view ….. one which is reflected in the Koran and it’s model – the Book of Revelation.

That’s right!  The Christian Fundamentalists wrote the model for the Koran belief that there would be an “end-of-days” army dressed in white.  It would be guided by Jesus (Isa) to kill the no-believers and those who were corrupt.  This is the origin of the Jihadist movement – Apocalyptic Christianity!

When Pat Robertson and the other Evangelicals call for adoption of the “End-of-Times” theology, they are calling for the Islamic Jihadists to come and kill.

Why do you think they backed both George Bush Presidencies when they acted in a manner to carry out the goals of Osama bin Laden?  Why do you think they were, and remain, supportive of the Tea Party and its agenda to destroy America?  All are supporting

Gotta Love this Quote

Barack Obama (FaceBook page) Quote of the day: “The bottom line is, when it comes to strengthening the economy and balancing our books, we’ve got to decide what our priorities are. Do we keep tax loopholes for oil companies—or do we put teachers back to work?” – President Obama today on the American Jobs Act

Now we know where the Republican priorities are – Bush & Bush were oil men … and the Saudis are -- either directly or indirectly -- funding the GOP.  OPEC owns the GOP, therefore tax loopholes for oil companies are the ultimate political priority.

In a defense oriented world – one in which long term vision trumps short-term personal gain – America would be favoring the use of foreign oil over the depletion of domestic reserves. 

When we run out of oil, our cars, trucks, tanks and planes screech to a halt and those who have oil can overrun us.

All we would have for defense is missiles – but only those which do not require petroleum products for their manufacture or operation.

Think of it this way:  A devout Jihadist devotes all his efforts to playing terrorist threat games with no real implementation necessary.  Maybe a half dozen, a dozen, suicide attacker die every few years … spread that over two decades … in 2032 America has gone dry … our oil depleted so we can have our SUV’s … and poorly insulated homes.

Then the games begin … the child born this year and in the years to come are trained for Jihad … OPEC has its oil and the Jihadists have taken over the governments that control the oil fields … albeit without revealing their true nature and intent … and the fun begins.

The oil embargoes of the 1970’s are repeated … those were just test runs for the real embargoes … and our nation grinds to a halt.  The war-equipment we have sold to the oil nations are now aimed at us.  We have no defense, because we have no fuel to use and so cannot mobilize or deploy our forces.

Those who survive will quickly learn to face Mecca.

Social Security Funding will not matter – there will be none unless the Jihadists wish it.  But those who live, under the Jihadists, in those days can proudly boast that their grandparents drove SUV’s.

On the other hand – since the teachers have gone – there will only be memories and the things Jihadists want us to know … Look to their nations today … look at their women and children … the last time Islam had a “Golden Age of knowledge” was in the second century after its appearance … and then, only because they imported scholars from what is now Afghanistan … There are no longer any scholars in Afghanistan … there are only Jihadists and their victims.

YEP!  Time to get our priorities straight.  Want to take a wager?  The priorities which will prevail will be those that favor the GOP and

Texas Gov. Rick Perry = ! IDIOT !

Well, Texas Gov. Rick Perry decided to call those who believe in basic accounting and economics liars.

Rick Perry does not believe Social Security can cover those now paying into it.  Of course, as you’ve read in past blogs, the reason there is any possibility of problems with Social Security is derived directly from the Republicans efforts to destroy it – and the American economy.

Social Security stores its funds in US Treasury Notes – inflate the National Debt and you devalue those reserves.  Reagan, Bush and Bush doubled and redoubled the National Debt – with cheers from the Republicans.  Now the Tea Party candidates – including Rick Perry, Mitt Romney and the rest of the current stable of horse for the next GOP Presidential Race – want to cut taxes from those who have money & taxable income and raise them on those who don’t have taxable income.

The goal of the GOP is to destroy Social Security – but, to do so, they must first destroy the American economy.  Remember, the recession we are now recovering from was the deliberate result of George W Bush policies intended to damage the nation – we knew that when he first proposed them … and you’ll probable find that in my newspaper column or blog from 2001 … That Bush intended to do this was made clear prior to his election – which is why My Column clearly invited people to vote for him – SPECIFICALLY (as I stated) to see if he would do as much damage as I was projecting.  As we now know, he did!

MING SHAO -- Actress

If a biography of my life were ever filmed, this is the gal I’d love to have play my daughter, Samantha Bryl:

Ming Shao – she had a walk on in 30 Rock, appears in multiple beauty product commercials, and has her degree from Fashion Institute & a NYC Real Estate License :-D

She will also be in two 2011 movies – with some of my favorite actors.  Should be interesting to follow her career…

OH to be a century younger … I would give serious thought to stalking and seducing this Beautiful Lady.

Who WAS in charge? (when we were robbed)

From Washington Post, 3 September 2011: “Wage earners who do not have Social Security numbers and are not authorized to work in the United States can use what the IRS calls individual taxpayer identification numbers.”

Americans lost $14.5 trillion in tax revenue due to undocumented workers –- who were trying to obey the law -- using taxpayer identification numbers in place of the Social Security Numbers they were not allowed to obtain.

“Changes to tax law are partly to blame for the explosion in refunds for additional child tax credits in recent years, auditors found. Before 2001, filers needed to have three or more children to qualify — and to owe more Social Security taxes than earned income credits.”

OK, who was in charge in 2001?  What President was elected in 2000?  Wasn’t it the same Bush Jr. who added $6.5 trillion to the National Debt and doubled the Debt which Clinton had been reducing after Reagan & Bush Sr. doubled it?

Let’s put it another way:  If George Bush and the Republicans had NOT changed the law, and if they had paid attention to the improper use of taxpayer identification numbers in place of the Social Security Numbers, the National Debt would have been paid off and we would now hold a $2 trillion surplus which would have secured Social Security (which is part of the Treasury Notes making up the National Debt) and provided sufficient funds for universal health care – which would pump more money into the economy by making a healthier workforce and removing insurance payments from household budgets and free that money for spending and savings.

But remember the Republican objective:

2012 Election – preview of reality

OK it is now September 2011 … we have a year and two months before the next presidential election.  Now, from the Washington Post we get this:

“Bush and Cheney remind us how we got into this mess” By Eugene Robinson, Published: September 1

Yep it has begun – intelligence has finally begun to raise it’s head and maybe it’s voice will become loud enough to be heard by the illiterate masses.

We are reminded that: “Obama is tackling enormous problems that took many years to create.”  In 2012, we are going to be told Obama is the problem and we should put those who rally caused the problem back into the Whitehouse –- so they can make it worse.  ! DUH !

Isn’t it bad enough that the self-destructive, nation destroying, idiots are gaining ground in Congress.  Do we really want to allow them the power to total out the American Dream?  How many people do they want to murder?  We spend more on murder, and the preparation for murder, than we do on Education and Healthcare and all Social Programs combined.

We are a nation which values harming others above all things.  It is not a matter of self-defense.

Rationally, we could tell the world – if you launch an attack, or allow one to be launched from your soil, or finance such an attack – we will NUKE you out of existence.  It will take only a few days … cost none of our citizens their lives … and ensure those who are responsible are immediately terminated.

What did Bush do with Bin Laden?  He withdrew the forces that were closing in on him and used them to kill Saddam Hussein – who was allied with us and a stabilizing force in the oil region.  Of course, Bush Sr. had said to Saddam that it was OK to expand, and then attacked him for expanding – what we call the GULF WAR.  The Bush family want to destroy oil, because they are in the oil business.  So they will murder as many people as possible – their wallets need filling.  Sr. received mullions from the Saudis for stopping Saddam.  Jr. seems on track to also receive a few blood pennies.  Which other GOP member, and candidate in 2012 – or now in, or planning to run for, Congress – is now on the Saudi payroll?

“… wars and the tax cuts have cost the Treasury between $4 trillion and $5 trillion”  Bush Jr. added $6.1 Trillion to the deficit.  GEE wonder if he and his cronies pocketed the rest?

“Reagan, in his eight years as president, raised taxes 11 times” and also doubled the national debt.  What did he squander the money on?  Whose pockets did he line?  Can you honestly say our lives were improved by his cutting Grants to Higher Education?  Did he improve our lives, environment, or economy – did he reduce our dependence on foreign oil, or environmentally destructive coal?  He tore the solar panels from the Whitehouse roof!   He opposed everything we now are trying to restore – thus setting us back half a century … while the Europeans moved forward.  Even the Arabs, with all their oil, saw the logic of solar and wind – which Republicans still deny.

“Republicans don’t pay attention to conservative economists anymore. The Republicans’ idea of a cure for cancer would be to cut spending and cut taxes.“  In reality, The Republicans are the very cancer that is spreading through the economic body of America.  They are the problem, and in no way can they offer a solution.

But thirty percent of Americans are way too dumb to understand that reality.
