When You're Right (wing), You're Right! part 2

"no more body armor!"
when the left supports big business,  they're doing it with  bailouts,  socialism, etc. when the right wing supports corporations with tax breaks, trickle down economics etc,  it's good business, trickle down economics, "the business of this country is business" (Coolidge) 


when the  right invades nations under false pretenses, war profiteers, kills tens of thousands of innocents, and rips a nation apart, they're  spreading democracy, keeping the world safer ("the purpose of the war is peace"--GW Bush), keying in on American interests  


the right attacks a supposed enemy without direct provocation, under false pretenses, with overwhelming force. if one of us attacks someone we don't like without provocations, under false pretenses, with overwhelming force, we're  arrested. 


when anyone wants to mess with the military and keep excellent personnel out, they are seen as anti American, hurtful, not supporting our troops, putting them in harms way.  when the right excludes excellent gay personnel  from the military, they're etc. when the right keeps gays out of the military, they're   keeping morale high, not messing with the military, going with the wishes of our troops

TOnight RIght Will Be Wrong

best health care in world right (wing)? 
terrific. let;s see what happens

  • when a semi segregationist like Rand Paul (nice name) wins a national office. Strom Thurmond resurrected (he is dead right?)
  • how much the media will spout endlessly about the Tea party kicking ass (which is o.k, but the coverage of Obama in 2008 was liberal biased media im sure), even though the Democrats were close to winning the Senate by 9:30 pm Eastern time
  • i wonder when everyone will realize that the Tea partiers are more affluent  than the average American and it may be that they just  want lower taxes for themselves, and couldn't  care less about less government when the gays become discriminated against or when they themselves  want the Constitutional right of freedom of religion abolished for Muslims 
  • again we'll "see" how much the problems now have nothing to do with Bush and everything to do with Obama. oh i left (left!) out Clinton, everything bad now is his fault too. 
  • when we again ignore facts like the ones that support state supported health care in Europe being  better than our "best system in America" that ranks 35th in the World Health Organization's rankings

Bigotry: "Ground Zero" (Tolerance) Mosque

"O.K" Mosque: Malcolm X's

 i live in Harlem and i've driven thru Brooklyn many times. i've been near  many mosques. i've never heard a bomb go off, never read about it, seen it, etc. surprise: this recent bigotry is not really against Muslims (keep in mind the nation with the most of them is Indonesia, an Asian nation). it's against  Mid-easterners. so it's literally (at least in Iraq)  double barrelled bigotry. 


how many of my brethren  of Irish decent have condemned the mosque? when the Irish  came to this nation en masse, the natives were saying the same about us: go back to where you came from, we don't need Catholics here etc.

FANATICS killed innocents on Sept 11.  how many "patriots", "god loving Americans", "simple folk", "freedom fighters", "regular folk", etc have killed TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MUSLIMS OVER -SEAS!!!????

the Financial district is right near ground zero too. you know, the place that ruined so many lives of Americans during the financial crisis which blasted out in  fall 2008. any calls to get them out of the area because of their awful practices? when in comparison the organizers of the mosque are pretty damn  innocent.

of course it's terrible to have big government and "heartland politics" overreaching their jurisdiction to another area, except in this case, it's perfectly o.k for some local politician down south to act  and involve himself in our local politics, right right?

Fair Weather Fans~Ugly American Fans


I've noticed that they're many times the same people. examples:
  • an old "friend" of mine who liked the Cowboys, Islanders, Lakers when they were good, dumped them all when they were bad. favorite baseball team, surprise, the Yankees. said the Olympics didn't mean much, put down soccer all the time

  • another someone close to me at times, a gym teacher and coach no less, who rips everyone else for being fake fans, yet his favorite golfers are Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods, favorite baseball team the Yankees, dumped the Cowboys, Rangers, Knicks, Giants when they were bad. also thinks soccer is a non sport
  • the American fans that put down soccer fans for their hooliganism, rioting etc. guess they see the bad in other nations and only the good in ours (right wing methodology?): see the riots after the Chicago Bull victories, Laker victories, Michigan State sports, to name just a few
by the way, the American fans that put down soccer, do they realize that baseball is the "national pastime"? a game where you barely run, you rarely jump, not really a contact sport, scoring is often low, most of the action is between 2 grown men having a catch?

for the record, i actually enjoy all the above mentioned sports, honest

Right Wing Hypocrisy


it's o.k for many of them to discriminate against gays even in attempting a constitutional amendment against them, but it's also o.k to watch faux violent gay bondage shows and use party contributions to pay for It?

dogmatic belief in small government, yet interference with a woman's freedom to chose abortion sometimes in the first trimester and sometimes in cases of sexual assault.

belief in the right to life, yet pro death penalty (!!) and weapon increases everywhere

actions to crack down on immigrants, but also actions to keep their hands off big business in this nation and abroad that employ illegals, child labor, grotesque labor conditions, exploitation, environmental degradation

actions to keep spending away from health care but always increasing spending on our military, which has tens of thousands of troops abroad in Germany, Japan and S Korea and troops in over 150 nations

The Feast of Fools' Awards



yes earlier i ranted about awards being a lot of bullshit (see previous entry). so what's more appropriate than to give the pile on the left to to the people that have already reaped so much after doing relatively little! and congratulations to them, the media, their publicists, the public for participating in such nazi like propaganda machines i mean American style advertising. the following is just a sampling. poison d' Avril!:



  • Peyton manning for hype whoring himself in every commercial possible, being called qb of the 90s in the face of Tom Brady's 3 world championships, then literally throwing away the biggest game of his life to a team that barely ever won even a playoff game. note: another usual bs award, the Super bowl mvp, was won by him years ago out of process of elimination: he didn't play that well and no one else was outstanding, in those cases it goes to the qb

  • America for fooling itself into thinking that we live in the, what did that asshole Sean Hannity say, the "greatest god given nation in the history of earth' or something? when we rank 35th in health care, 5th in capital punishment, first in killing foreigners, first in wmds, weapons spending, pollution, waste, war profiteering, indefinite detention of foreigners, should i go on?

  • Jersey Shore for proving again that America can't get enough of Italian NYc area stereotypes even after CONSTANT barrages of the Sopranos, Real housewhores of NJ, Real world Staten island ET AL

Congratulations all, you've proved once again that in america, if we're told that black is white enough times that we're comfortable with that ugliness, we'll pay for it! again, Hitler himself was very proud of his ability to do so.

American Hypocrisy


why does the rest of the world not speak out against it on the world stage? because they don't want to get blasted, literally or economically by the big bad bully of the globe? whose practices include:
  • having the largest stockpile of Weapons of Mass destruction
  • having the largest stockpiles of the most deadly weapons on earth including nuclear weapons
  • having our military in more than 150 NATIONS OF THE WORLD!! e.g. 30 000 in Japan, the second biggest economy in the world. let's be honest people: we're a MILITARY INDUSTRIAL EMPIRE
  • being one of if not the biggest weapon sellers and war profiteers on earth
  • having a defense budget /Military industrial complex worth the defense budgets of the next 20 nations COMBINED?
  • killing more foreigners, innocents, than any other nation besides Israel maybe (and where do they get their weaponry?)
  • throwing out habeous corpus, indefinite detentions, secret overseas prisons, war profiteering (Haliburton), extra judicial military squads (Blackwater)
  • weapons technology under our 'friends' was o.k (Pakistan under Musharif, one of the worst rulers on earth), yet not o.k from our "evil enemies"
with all these practices, who are we to tell ANYONE to lessen their weaponry. ANYONE. no matter how "evil" they are since their misdeeds are probably small in comparison. time for america to hold up more mirrors to their practices, morals, international interactions etc.

More Political Hypocrisy


right wing belief in small government yet supporting American military presence everywhere, including tens of thousands of U.S troops in each nation of Germany, Japan, S Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, and troops in over 150 nations. also the biggest nuclear and weapons of mass destruction stockpile on earth.

also a roaring protest any time that the UN even thinks about influence on "the greatest best nation that God ever gave the earth" or whatever that asshole Sean Hannity said.

also roaring protest at any other nation, besides our temporary allies like Israel, Pakistan, India, that even makes an attempt at getting nuclear weapons.

also small government belief but denial of basic personal human rights for gays.

the high percentage of right wingers that are elderly, are civil servants like police and fire, the military, and/or have kids in school, yet shout out against universal health care while they have Medicare, are paid and have benefits by a socialistic government system, and have kids in public schools.

strong war cry of Sept 11 yet showing zero remorse for killing tens of thousands of innocent foreigners.

does anyone wonder why i speak out against our elected officials?
