Lemonade Stand Grand Standing

Pink litmus test of the century this may be. Seems when Obama was out and about performing door-to-door campaigning in a good old American neighborhood, an incident occurred but went right over the news’ pundits heads. Doesn’t surprise me as the cast of idiots employed by the FOX and MSNBC wouldn’t notice the sky falling. Anyway, in one of these so-called American neighborhoods - the guarded community kind where things are pretty mush safe behind bars and family affiliation is by vote more then by choice - kids can still play out their fantasies of becoming a successful businessperson, where the traditional “Lemonade Stand” appears now and then. Now the rumor has it that two girls in pretty Sunday dresses sat behind the business venture out front of their “Desperate Housewives” type house, with mom in the background performing yard work, or drinking a martini - the verdict still out on what she was really doing. Anyway, when approached the girls were glad to accommodate the wishes of the campaigners, three glasses of lemonade were ordered. I guess it meant a refreshment break for Obama and two Secret Service goons. So three glasses were readily filled with ice-cold lemonade. Now one glass was filled only half way? As directed by the businesswomen - supposedly coached by mom - that glass went to Obama, and the girls collected the correct fare for just that - one and a half glasses total! In efforts not to excite riots - as this neighborhood was close too Joe "Asshole" Plumber's neck of the woods - nothing was said about the disparity, or maybe more in tune to what appeared to be preferential treatment. It was a very hot day, a full glass was called for. So one quickly realizes that this wasn’t just a filling mistake but a pre-calculated action. Only half a glass for the “Blackman”, but at the same time at a discount! The question is this. Is it discrimination on its face or has discrimination evolved to the point that it can be practiced as long as the practitioners are due diligent with respect to applying an appropriate value, like in this case? The value was decreased to what was provided, no one can argue that! The other question, is it time to bring back spanking?

Classical Gas ~ Gouging!

So this state’s legalites - sworn in to tear down anything that abridges the citizens’ rights - have failed once again to halt “price gouging” at the gas pumps! The Alaska Department of Law along with the House Judiciary Committee set out on a mission seeking relief for Alaskans. That mission followed the Bush doctrine and was accomplished before it began and we are still the laughing stock state when it comes to getting ripped off at the pump. According to numbskulls in Oz - a.k.a. Juneau - “gas prices aren’t coming down as fast as they are in the Lower 48 and (we) haven’t found a magic bullet to fix the problem”. Hey, have you looked for the smoking gun? It is easy to understand why Alaskans have and always will pay outrageous prices for motor gasoline and heating fuel. It is called “Corporate Greed”. So you say big deal, as everybody knows that! But that lame old excuse takes on reality at the Alaskan gas pump. So far the state bureaucrats has come up empty handed as to why this state’s citizens - a state with bragging rights with respect to the largest producing oil fields and a pipeline that at one time delivered 20-percent of the nations energy needs on a daily basis - continue to get ripped and raped just trying to get to the store to buy groceries! Take into account that this same pipeline delivers millions of barrels of crude oil to markets, the main ingredient in making gasoline and heating fuel. So why do the numbskulls come up empty handed? Well it is very simple math. The most lucrative pipeline ever built and placed in service upon Americanized soil was and is the Trans-Alaskan-Pipeline. It all boils down to delivery! And this lucrative “cash cow” – as Congressmen Dingell called it during a Congressional hearing way back when – it is by now 30-years in the making with that the “taking”. The state has failed miserably over these years when it comes to infiltrating what goes on with the oil business, right in our own backyard. It indeed follows a convoluted supply and demand theory, wherein the supply side is controlled so far out of whack with the demand part of the equation it nauseates. In a nutshell, the oil companies explore for the oil, they exploit the oil, they ship their oil, which means they have carte’ blanche control over the destiny of their “own” oil, which whittles down to total control over the price of that commodity. Now there exist some checks and balances along the way which act as a deterrent to “price” monopolization. So it means the greed masters must find “loophole hideaways” to manipulate righteousness – which equals “greed”. Now the well-head price of crude oil finds its value directly related to the world-wide supply and demand theory. That is why North Slope crude oil “slating” - the price to purchase a barrel - follows global trends. So “our” Alaskan oil is not that much different in price then Saudi Arabian oil, per barrel. But it is getting the crude oil to where it can be utilized that seems to mount the smoking gun theory. TAPS oil is shipped to Valdez where it enters the market through the over ocean transportation system. Now tanker-shipping costs are also something that fits the global trademark, so it doesn’t really have an effect on the “slate”. Whatever is added for that transportation cost is plausible and acceptable. Maybe a few cents on the price of a gallon of gasoline, in the Lower-48 that is! Alaskan’s don’t have that burden, do we? Now most of the oil that the Alaskan’ producers exploit and ship, it is sent to their own refineries down the Lower-48 way, so along the way there is again that checks and balance thing. But what happens in Alaska along the way from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez is where the smoking gun marksman makes his quota. It is called a “Tariff”. This beat-up bend-me-over “term” is what the explorers and exploiters charge themselves for shipping oil down the 800-mile long Alaskan dipstick. And nobody knows exactly what it is for, except a ways and means to act as an added value product price enhancer. It takes into account things like manpower. And to this date from inception, an outfit called Alyeska Pipeline Service Company has acted as the agent in charge of getting this oil down the “producers” oil pipeline. Alyeska is an agent only, operating out of Delaware. And Alyeska has the goods of record that would allow a justifiable “tariff”, but like anything else, we have been violated. See, Alaska by right of the state’s once powerful Constitution imposed an inherent “Open Records” mandate. Basically nothing would be kept secret. Now early on, the oil companies realized that this “Right” could interfere with their behind the scenes shenanigans. So they went crying to Juneau and complained that the “Open Record” law would hurt their business, based on the fact that they were spending zillions of dollars on exploration costs and didn’t want “tight well” information made available to other oil companies, so justified. Some of the greatest espionage has gone on up here in Alaska. They got what they wanted and were given immunity. So this allowed the oil companies to skirt outside infiltration, which meant everything and anything related to oil was soon off limits. That is why even today the legalites have no idea what is happening here with respect to “Big Oink Oil”. Anyway, Alyeska is still the agent for the producers up north. So this tariff thing continues to strangle the true picture of what it takes to get crude oil to markets in the Lower-48 states. The “Tariff” in reality can be anything, as it doesn’t really affect anything. See, it is something that the oil companies apply upon themselves. It is a fine upon their own business for shipping oil then acts as a very lucrative business write-off. It works except if somebody is trying to buy oil to put to good use here in Alaska, as an independent. MAPCO, the entity that at one time owned the “big refinery” in North Pole, it sold its interests to Williams, because the tariff structure was strangling the profit margin. I would bet – if the records were indeed available – that Flint Hills cut a good deal with Williams and this outrageous tariff is some how or another calculated into the business dealings buyout between Hill and Williams. See, Williams saw how restrictive the tariff was to the bottom-line when it operated the North Pole refinery using North Slope crude oil so bought into the pipeline, to take advantage of the write-on and write-off scenario. Like mentioned before, it was a way to fine then seek relief. But Williams went under due to investing too much of its worth and wealth into the hi-tech infrastructure, which fell flat on its face. So maybe over time a business incentive has been played out wherein the Hill and Williams enjoy a sweet heart of a deal. Remember, the record books could be cooked and who would ever know? But on the outside the current refiner, well they can cry wolf whenever somebody tries to make waves with respect to price gouging at the pump. So maybe the insider incentives have died out and this outfit no longer enjoys the “Greed”. It is hard to say. Bottom line, it all boils down to this fictitious “tariff”. Now the actual costs to operate the Tran-Alaska-Pipeline were documented by an outfit called Booze-Allen-Hamilton. When upper management found out that this outfit was getting too close to the bone of contention – basically they were finding out the true costs to ship oil down the pipeline – the entire project went away quickly and all information was shredded. Fortunately, I was given a copy of that report. Some old timer found a copy of the report in a dumpster over at a business park off of “C” Street, where Alyeska had secret offices during the Booze affair. It basically details the true costs of everything up and down the line. But even though it lends merit and could assist the state legislatures in assessing the price gouging at the pumps, it can’t be used for anything but maybe toilet paper or as a fire starter. Any oil company information that is stolen is deemed inadmissible in court, another added advantage the oil companies enjoy with respect to “Open Records” gone hidden away. It protects the oil interests from disgruntled employees. So the state legislatures have their hands tied, now and forever, AMENDMENTS we need. If the “Open Record” law was once again in effect, we would have the goods on “Big Oil” and it could mean 30-years of price gouging made public, which in turn could mean reimbursements. A quick calculation goes like this. From my calculations using the Alyeska data for a reasonable “tariff”, the price of gasoline without “tariff” gouging and calculated over a 30-year rip-off period, it would amount to every driver in Alaska reaping in excess of $25,000 in payback! So the only “magic bullet” that the legislation is looking for with respect to investigating the high price at the pump is for it all too go away, again! And please, will the Benzene lady go away at the same time! It seems this state is wasting more money once again on air quality “crap”. We went through the benzene scare once upon a time ago and the next thing you know we were being inundated at the gas pumps by some additive designed to control benzene emission, and that stuff was worse then the benzene itself because it was a derivative of benzene! It also added another nickel to the price gouging, as this “crap” had to be imported. And the air quality in Anchorage has one main constituent that is causing ill health breathing problems! It is called dried dog crap! The Department of Health at one time posted the air quality constituent levels, and it was always dried dog feces that made up the major component of airborne stuff. They stopped posting the actuals after too many complaints, it is still dog crap, take a good whiff. So in ending, we continue to find crap legislation violating legislative responsibility. One day, when the pipe comes out of the ground, the records will show that Alaska was ripped off, raped by pirates that sailed in and took advantage of what was rightfully so the citizens booty to begin with. Hey answer me this. How come a major producer has never invested in that refinery or any refinery here in Alaska? The answer is simple. It is a loosing proposition as the tariff would be not as lucrative. Only a 400-mile long write-off instead of that 812-mile wrote-off. And if they started refining their own stuff, it may allow us getting closer to the truth. In ending, I can tell you this. The price of gasoline in Anchorage today, when oil is about 50-dollars a barrel, and taking into account what the Boozers uncovered, it should be about $1.12, all tax and profits included. This is not fiction, but fact! Rip off? No it is rape!

Triginosis

The election is over! So why does the Anchorage Daily Stool continue to pick on Sarah Palin? She lost, isn’t that enough flack to swallow? Why do the pundits think they have a say-so in her future? Are the Palin’s renting out a room to FOX’s Greta Van? She is always up there in Wasilabilly country. Maybe she should drive up towards Denali and interview Jeff King, the moose slayer. Anyway, the Stool sets out seven challenges that Sarah must face and accomplish in efforts to “Face the Pageant”. This amounts to exciting a riot. Just go away news-people and respect another’s right to privacy. Here in Alaska, the state Constitution provides such a thing, again, privacy is being compromised. And Sarah must need her rest. Not for what she has been through, but for the future. Soon, Sarah will find out her true mission in life. It is not directly related to politics, but she may be instrumental in picking up where others have left off or failed. I am talking accommodating the handicapped. I am talking championing for equal rights beyond and above what it is today. When she was out on the trail, she made it clear and convincing that voters would have a voice for “special needs” in the White House on a McCain & Palin ticket, a voice for those that harbor handicaps. Sarah’s new addition to her family - Trig - is a child with Down’s Syndrome. Sarah, your new mission is at home, as a mom, as a dedicated full-time mom, as to say “it ain’t so Joe” is cruel and unusual punishment and also a syndrome, like in “denial”. What Sarah & Toad as parents don’t realize right off the bat is the amount of work it takes to raise a child with this anomaly. I am not such a parent, so there may be some offended by what I say or words used, but I was also best of friends with a couple that have endured the challenges. After raising three beautiful girls, they were blessed with a son, with Down’s Syndrome. So Daily Stool and Greta Van along with the rest of the news-pundit celebrity-ship of fools, there exists before Sarah one all important “Challenge”. Raising Trig to be socially acceptable to the greatest extent possible. It takes time, so much time, so much dedication that it is very hard to get the point across. Again, I have watched a family excel through the trial and tribulations of raising a child with such a burden. It is a full-time plus job. For all the members of the family. And there are some familiar similarities between my friends and the Palin clan. My friend’s husband was a “slope” worker, just like Toad. So it means several weeks away from home followed by a re-uniting period. It is indeed a very tough schedule for a relationship, for families. In raising a child with handicaps, there will come the adult prejudices, wherein influential and educated “bigots” contest having “different” kids in their kids’ classroom. This will go on and on and on, attacks by supposedly well-respected lawyers and doctors and crooks who believe mainstreaming is a crime. There will come the threat letters, cease and desist scare tactics that will send parents of “special needs” children sobbing and placing them on the edge. Just because they are trying to be a voice, trying to make it better in that life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. We are so insensitive to others in trouble and in need. Then there will come the pageant queen teens that will use such innocent victims as pawns in their Broadway fantasies to disenfranchise their enemies. The mean girls at school will use anybody in their pursuits, even the innocence of those with handicaps! And parents against mainstreaming will set-up their own children in efforts to fail the system. Lying and cheating becomes the norm on this battlefield. And this goes on for years, just trying to get through the school years. And let us not forget the extra medical issues that many “special needs” children must contend with. And just when you think you have it figured out to some semblance of decency for your “special needs” child, there comes the mind-boggling efforts to figure out the system. And in this day and age, because of the complicating matters of such, one is cautioned to put away money for that rainy-day attorney that specializes in this subject matter, including discrimination. But going public is important, as it does indeed lend itself to furthering acceptance, as we are not created equal but must be treated equal. So Sarah, home schooling just doesn’t cut it. And when after some 12-years the school challenges come to an end, then parents must concentrate on the years after, like what work exists for kids that have a difficult time holding a knife, when even cooking classes at the University of Alaska - an Equal Opportunity learning establishment - are disallowed, all due to liability factors. And when one looks at the availability of jobs for the handicapped here in Alaska, it is pathetic. Maybe because it is still a supply and demand thing, but not so should it be so difficult when one considers the money this state has to play with. Sure there exists the Carr’s market chain that accommodates the handicap as part of their dedicated work force development. But is that the extent of meaningful and gainful employment? It seems to be. I shop that institution for that reason, because at least this business is somewhat sensitive to others unlike others. I boycott the Wal-Marts, the giant retailers, as these outfits remain insensitive to potential workers with “special needs”. It isn’t out of prejudices, but merely a business decision. How come the Mart can sponsor athletes? Sure most outfits have spent money to accommodate the handicapped that want to spend money, but that is only because the Fed.’s insist upon non-discrimination in the retail arena. But what about workers rights? Anyway, when I see what it takes from the sidelines, I wonder. Maybe Sarah has left one lingering aspect of a good campaigner. She should not give-up now as an advocate for “special needs”. Just because she lost doesn’t mean she can throw in the towel as she has already excited the base and others over the possibility of an advocacy championing in furtherance of “special needs” legislation. It doesn’t matter with a win or lose with respect to the presidency. She made that commitment to the people of this land, that she would be a voice for those with “special needs”, she cannot renege upon this promise now or forevermore hold her peace. If she does nothing, then we know who the true Sarah Palin is, just another cheapskate politician trying to win a pageant for nothing more then greed be mine! So of all the hip-hip-hurray hoopla for this and that, “special needs” advocacy is needed, especially here in Sarah’s own backyard. Let’s see if she comes through. This is the real test of time, her time to shine! So that is how people should gage Sarah. In four years time, we should compare where “special needs” has advanced. And that will tell us if she is a promise keeper or a promise breaker! It is that simple. We Alaskans and the media should concentrate on that one and only leftover dedication. Sarah, don’t let us down. Let the staff concentrate on the other things of interest, like a natural gas pipeline and off-shore development. As right now it is time to develop on-shore interests, like “special needs”.

Miffonialism

What the heck is all the fuss over the unemployment numbers coming out from the Bureau of Labor Statistics? For October, it meant in increase in out-of-work Americans to the tune of 240-thousand! For the past three months, 651-thousand have joined the rank and file of the down and outers, so it reeks of a discouraging job-market. I guess it is safe to say that this year alone will see approximately 1.2-million American taxpayers begging their way to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. “Brother can you spare a dime” may be the number one theme song, deja vu, as during the 70’s that all too familiar tune made the top-ten charts many times. It bothers me, as the current situation seems to be placing a burden and bother on Wall Street. Isn’t it proper to “clean” house before moving out? Hey, is it safe to say that George Bush was terminated? Or is he just that insensitive to what is going on around the country he is supposedly in charge of! In his emotional see-you-later speech the other day, he went on how enthused he was in having to find a new job and a new house. Did he and Laura also get a foreclosure notice? Anyway, I don’t know of anyone that enjoys either effort, unless one is a spoiled rich person. And when popy has silver plate spoon fed a son all his life, what lesson in life is really learned? Nothing! Is it true that no publishing company is after George’s memoirs? Hey, it would just be a bunch of pages “Intentionally Left Blank”. Anyway, I am a little concerned that this gloom & doom scenario was premeditated because of the presidential election upon us all. I guess it was supposed to provide one candidate abetting and abiding but somebody gave John McCain the wrong cue card. “The economy is strong”. Really! Maybe it was Sarah, in a sabotage attempt? I wouldn’t put it past her. Anyway, there is noting to fear but fear itself with the fear factor unemployment numbing numbers. Why? Well here it is in plain Don Young English. Sidebar: Even though Don is being investigated for political corruption, we up here in Alaska continue to vote him back in as a senior citizen congressman. Why? We love his lovey-dovey wife, Lu. See, Don sponsored the wackiest and most complex apportionment bill that ever hit George Bush’s desk. In fact it was so complicated that everyone voted for it, bipartisan magic it was. Why wacky? Because it guarantees jobs. Good paying jobs at that, exceeding twice the minimum wage going rate, for “zero” experience. See, in the “Safe, Accountable, Flexible and Efficient Transportation Equity Act” signed into action in 2005 and in effect until 2010, the money doled out by the Treasury Department courtesy of the taxpayers – you and I – it equates jobs to the down-payment! This long-winded bill with over 11111 subtitles is also referred to as the TEA-LU bill, where TEA is understood as Transportation Equity Act or short title and LU, in honor of Don’s wife. Anyway, in that bill which had a term life expectancy of 5-years, it prioritizes Treasury money above anything and everything accept the military budget. And the “accountable, efficient and equity” is based on the following fact, which was instrumental in getting the votes for passage. For every 1-billion dollars handed out by Uncle Sam through Don Young’s approval it will create 48,000 jobs. Now let us put this in perspective with the present situation with respect to job loss. Because it is a “prioritized” form of Federal welfare, it means that the 25-billion allocated for 2010 is now available, which equates to approximately 1.3-million jobs! Enough to cancel the unemployment ranks for this year! Now with that in mind, what about next year? Well the bail bondman has just approved 700-billion for the Wall Street financial collapse. One would demand the same kind of return on investment, with the jobs creation that is. So I had Phineas J. Whoopee figure out this gigantic jobs program problem. The bail out accounts for enough cashola to provide 33-million jobs! Good paying jobs at that. Jobs that fuel a healthy economy! Considering that the unemployment rate drop-off has only demonstrated approximately 1.3-million jobs loses per year, with a tanking economy, the bail out is basically a 15-year jobs creation program in disguise! So with all the doom and gloom, there is a long way to go before it gets as bad as it seems. If you loose your job, just call the Department of Transportation and demand a job under the TEA-LU bill. If you have problems, call Don at (202)225-5765. If Don is of no help, call LU at (907)271-5978. And since it is not a timed release handout, it means that it will create jobs when needed. So we are not to worry, unless? If the crap that comes from our Congress has no accountability with respect to the selling points, then we as Americans have been sold out, by those that control the purse-strings. And if so, then I propose the following if indeed unemployment should make the pursuit of happiness here in America yet another wet-dream. For every 1-million jobs lost over a year’s time, we decrease the number of sitting congressmen by 2 and sell off a senator’s seat. The salary saved could feed two income earners, their families and at the same time the income earners take over the loosing representatives’ health plan, maybe a piece of his or her retirement. OK, to be fare, they don’t loose their job forever and can continue to represent, they just have to go on unemployment, kind of like a let’s change shoes sort of mission. How the Congress determines who loses a job is their business, maybe mud wrestling! Now if you really want to see how far government is out of control with bills that sound good but really don’t deliver, just read Don Young’s TEA-LU legislation. This should become the poster-child of corruption, and all those that voted for it are as guilty as Don. And just as a tidbit of what is contained in this massive bill, how about a way to pay for all the shenanigans that probably doesn’t create anywhere near the jobs the bill is supposed to enjoy.

Rabid Skunk Election

It is day 3 since the conspiracy theory started ruffling the feathers of normal thinking people. Talking herein about how the pollsters flunked out with the pre-election post-election results, for Alaskan voters. I had moved on to bigger and better things to write about, yet this morning I stopped and gave this theory at least a small consideration of worthiness, which to my surprise came an appreciation of plausibility - it smells skunk like! When Pierre the republican man comes out in the open and admits that he didn’t vote, it would occur that the numbers would be way down for voter turnout, for the republican party that is. Which would have meant an even a greater victory margin for Begich, running against incumbent felon Ted Stevens. And in the congressional race, it would have meant Don Young’s saddle heading to that hitching post in the barn. This was an election like no other times before us. Voter turnout across the nation anticipated humongous increases, with the possibility of long lines, but even longer lines soothed by a hefty increase in “early voting”. So what happened here in Alaska? Why was this one state different then all the rest? In statistics it could be called an “outlier”, wherein everything is orderly on the outside but there is something rotten on the inside, causing even the stats to fall short of expectations. An “outlier” ruins the hocus-pocus behind statistics being of any worth. So is usually expelled, as it is outside the range of accuracy so if included, it muddies the waters. But in this case, it cannot be cast away as bothersome as it is troublesome, as it is the voice of the people, supposedly. As far as the lopsidedness with the so far results, wherein Ted and Don are sitting pretty once again making Alaska the laughing stock state of the Union, well the answer is easy - the early votes were stolen and discarded. And early voting had become the pride and joy of democrats bent on “Changing” things. When one looks at the demographic layout and voter preference for the votes that did make it too election central, where the official count would take place, well Begich won the bush. The strong link to disenfranchising comes from the Anchorage and the Valley, where voter fraud could be easily orchestrated. We had an army of lawyers involved in this year’s election, which means there was money, which means maybe the election was compromised. Lets face it once and for all. With honors being the Corrupt Bible state, - I mean Corrupt Bastard state - I am sure that there came a coordinated and concerted effort to make sure that this state continued on the sour side of ethical responsibility. I call it the “Rabid Skunk” syndrome. See, Don Young above all should not have been re-elected. It has nothing to do with Coconut Grove. He has no business as a congressman now that Linda Pelossi is in charge. Don once referred to Pelossi as a “Rabid Skunk”. So that would act as a disadvantage for him and us up here in Alaska, revenge of the “Skunk”. Anyway, this will be my one and only take on what happened here in Alaska. The election was sabotaged by theft as thieves are still in control of Alaska. We would be Sarah Palin stupid to think otherwise! So somewhere there is a guilty individual with a party affiliation that would stoop that low, and steal away the will of the people. One more thing of international interest before moving on. The crystal ball is oscillating bright to dim upon Sarah Palin’s future. Just look what happened to Kathleen Harris. She was the inept individual that allowed the entire voting process to allow the election process to become a selection process, and this country ended up with George Bush. Why did Kathleen demonstrate such low-life responsibility almost to the point of being a turncoat? She thought that if she sabotaged the voters’ right she would be in good favor with Jeb and company, the Bush family. She was right on and soon found it meant a selfish move up the political ladder. She made it and then she found out that it takes smarts to weather out the storm. And now she is yet more proof that failure is a reality. This will be typical of the road Sarah treads upon, if she doesn’t sit back now and realize her limitations. The political arena is not about a pageant! It is serious business. So I am about to write out a check to those collecting money to investigate what went wrong here in Alaska. I said it early on in the campaign. Where’s David Bose? As I am sure he and his posse of lawyers will soon be heading this way. Can you imagine the predicament Sarah would find herself in if she had to make a decision to hold another election? This may be her one big test. And that saying “We’re In” has an entire new meaning now. It is called National Enquirery!

NPR, Sick Journalism

I woke this morning and what was coming over the airwaves was so sickening that I immediately found myself with a headache. The good thing, it again re-assured my reasoning as to why I no longer support NPR. Maybe instead of National Public Radio, it means National Pathetic Radio! In fact, I wish I could get my money back for all the years I did lend support, while somewhat cash-strapped and raising a family! At one time it was a good journalistic outlet, until the neo-conservatives - that have Murdoch money - started buying their time on supposedly “neutral” radio broadcasting. Anyway, some f$%^’n reporter aligned with the FOX hit the airwaves and could not offer anything of encouragement about Obama’s choice of a press secretary accept the acceptor of such a challenging position likes using the “F” word! What a cheapskate way to display professionalism! Is that it? And mind you Miss Manners – a.k.a. Mara Liaison – as if you have never used the “word”. In fact wasn’t that you overheard saying “Oh F%^&” when Obama started collecting enough electoral votes that the FOX was running for cover? Now this mad outburst came about in the morning when families gather, to listen to what is happening around the world, when dads and moms are having breakfast with the kids, before it is time to head off to work or school. This f%&# lady needed soap! Even though she didn’t sound out the “fuck” word, she threaded the needle enough to make it clear and convincing that people from FOX are indeed afraid of the “Change” coming our way. It was such a cheap shot that it sounds of the “poor loser” syndrome, just because Obama won out over the McCain & Palin follies. And if this is the way left out right winged Americans will right off the bat disgrace this country even more, maybe it is time for such turncoats to take a boat ride, to a place where the FOX is king, but I don’t know any boats that know the way to the neo-conservative promise land, a.k.a. Hell. Fox, Liaison, you F%^&$# lost! Now just move over and be quiet as inciting riot like rhetoric is not an exercise of the 1st Amendment. Here in Alaska, the state Constitution goes like this. And since NPR seems to continue to pollute the airwaves here in the Last Frontier, Murdoch, it doesn’t release you away from obeying and abiding the following laws of MY land:

§ 5. Freedom of Speech
Every person may freely speak, write, and publish on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right.

Ground Control to Major Tom

Enough on Sarah Palin, let her get some much needed rest. So what that the RNC is supposedly sending up a lawyer type hound-dog to confiscate the missing clothesline. Anyway, there are now before us more pressing matters. The election is over and was truly that, an election. We were getting so use to the selection process. Having a genuine American election executed makes me want to shout with joy. Anyway, a whole lot of news worthy stuff went missing during the last month as Election Day came closing in. One particular news’ worthiness of interest may be a sign that we haven’t kept our “terrorist” guard up to strength. Occupied with other things I guess. Anyway, a commercial passenger plane flying towards Australia suddenly lost altitude and sunk like John McCain’s campaign. There existed no wind shear storms in the area. Turbulence was ruled out, as was any engine failure or mechanical failures. Now though focus is on the airplane’s guidance system. Everything on a plane is computerized. Gone are the good old days of analog radar and control, all now substituted by teensy-tiny micro-processor type digital computers. The same computers that control your laptop control huge airplanes. Most modern day planes have integrated control systems, computers tied to computers tied to satellite navigation systems tied to ground control to Major Tom. All these computers talk to each other and all provide a critical part of “safe flying”. It is a complicated infrastructure that up until recently has provided a very secure networking system. Not a single plane in the sky relies upon a single routing signal. When the threat of terrorist attacks became a reality, those in the know figured out ways to trump any disruption in the air traffic control scheme of things. Flying has been safe, all around, because of the dedication to keep it a safe mode of transportation. But terrorist’s work on a cheapskate like budget. So they find ways and means to deliver destruction no matter how hardened the infrastructure becomes. Anyhow, it is now realized that the plane that ran into trouble had a malfunctioning guidance system. The plane’s actual elevation was tricked wherein the autopilot went berserk in efforts to correct the discrepancies. But thorough checking indicated that everything checked out OK when the plane finally landed and ambulances were lined up to take the bumped around victims to local hospitals. The plane fell thousands of feet before the plane regained control and the pilots were able to stabilize the plane. But something occurred that rammed the plane towards a hard impact. It seems that the engineers and technicians checking out the instrumentation and electronic guidance systems noticed appreciable amounts of stray magnetic fields, minute residual traces that had an effect upon their testing instruments’ accuracy! So where did this stuff come from? Again, there were no known thunderstorms in the area either, a possible source of the stray magnetic leftovers. Now the experts are focusing on something of interest, something really scary. A laptop computer carries with it a very powerful battery. Some time ago, following 911, the TSA required travelers carry computers to turn the unit on, to make sure it was indeed a computer. This practice was stopped, as it was a joke and was indeed an un-necessary delay for the entire traveling public. Any carry on laptop computer could have an operating system that would boot up properly, but it didn’t mean anything of value in efforts to thwart an attack. At that time there was the scare that a laptop would contain concealed C5 explosives and the laptop could be used as a terrorist weapon upon the still calm blue skies. But C5 can be detected and is something that one doesn’t come across on E-Bay, lets hope not. Anyway, the terrorist, or somebody, has taken suitcase technology one-step closer to reality. Once again, the batteries in a laptop are very powerful. The lithium type - because of the chemical reactions going on inside - cannot be transported on a passenger aircraft, not in bulk fashion - as a few out-of-control batteries can cause a rapid fire. Nowadays, a typical plane probably has aboard several hundred laptops. And at 10-thousand feet, it becomes computer city in the air. And now that many planes offer convenience outlets, to re-charge computers, we have entered into another dimension with terrorist attack technology – our very own technology for the good about to do us harm. At 64 watts per hour sustainability, that calculates out to an instantaneous power surge of more then 1000 watts, out of that innocent looking computer! Computers work in micro-seconds, so the battery could be used along with the digital technology to deliver a real problem. It is plausible that a battery could deliver enough power to interfere with a planes navigation and control systems. It is called EMP, for Electro-Magnetic Pulse. It was discovered following testing of atomic bombs. When such a violent reaction smashes atoms to smithereens, an EMP is part of the fallout. It wasn’t a big deal way back when as analog electronics is not that susceptible to EMP radiation. But in modern days of digital low-level power technology, even a low power EMP could be disastrous to a computers memory. And herein this problem comes to light. It is very easy for a laptop to be secretly and un-suspiciously turned into an innocent looking platform to deliver a series of EMP discharges – radiation that could disrupt a plane’s navigational systems. When this EMP stuff was discovered, there came a whole lot of interest as destruction apostles found another thing to keep their low IQ’s enlightened, so our government and other governments experimented with this EMP stuff, allowing the experimental information to get out to the public, that it was feasible to produce a suitcase type bomb incorporating EMP technology. One that could disrupt communications, that was some 10-years ago. Things have become more hi-tech and smaller. With powerful batteries and powerful communication gizmos, like “can you hear me now” devices that plug into a computers Ethernet ports, the stage is set for some fruitcake nutcase to deploy this technology, as a weapon with the terrorists’ label of approval. And there is no way this type of attack can be prevented, unless the FAA and TSA ban laptops immediately, from going aboard a passenger plane. And it could easily be concealed away in baggage and perform the same destruction! One could set-up a computer and check it in as baggage, say in the “sleep” mode - conserving power - only to wake up at a predetermined time and start pulsing EMP destructive radiation. If this occurred when a plane was on a glide path trajectory to land, it could be disastrous. Take New York City for instance, or any big city for that matter. The skies around major airports are crowded with traffic. One wayward out-of-control plane could cause a domino effect, as there is just so much reaction time wherein planes can be re-stacked. And if the plane has enough EMP stuff causing misguidance, the entire corridor above an airport can become a major crime scene. It is a very serious problem! And with programming such an easy task these days, it is available technology that could easily render a plane helpless, wherein planes would just start falling out of the sky, it would cause the fear factor to once again take hold of reality. Bottom-line, can you imagine if right now the FAA and or TSA banned together to ban all laptops from planes, either as carry on or baggage? And there is no way that the TSA has employed enough specialists that could checkout each and every computer entering the no-thrill zone, through security. The only other way to make it safe, ban the computer’s batteries from accompanying passengers aboard a plane. That solves the carry-on problem. As far as baggage, careful screening could find wayward computers and make sure the batteries have been disconnected. Another way, new-age laptops that don’t really on batteries for usage. Wherein wireless power technology does the power duty, where the power level is so low that it could never render a blow to a plane’s navigational systems. There are solutions, but we must act now!

We The People

I understand that Sean “Sorry Dud(e)” Hannity is taking the blame for Mrs. Cindy McCain & Mr. Toad Palin’s lose, that of the presidential race. Sarah & Todd? Wasilla Hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus from coast to coast? That’s what the FOX is reporting and supposedly valid information from within the McCain campaign. Hey John, give your running mate a break, maybe that is all Cindy thought this race was all about, a shopping spree with friends, I mean Hillbillies! My wife had your wife figured out from the beginning. Sorry, I can’t repeat what that eluded towards as it is even too offensive for this 1st Amendment practice of mine. Anyway, when Hannity’s head exploded soon after Obama started making a show in the electoral vote count, all the red stuff reserved to fill in the red states to be won vanished in thin air. And without it, Obama was the uncontested winner. I do believe that Hannity is “shocked and awed” that a “Black Man” could receive even “1” electoral vote. See, the electorate must vote their conscious. There are some neo-conservatives that believe that the electoral college will not deliver a win to Obama. In fact, some still believe that before the electorals’ meet, that could indeed become a reality. It is a race car race card at work behind the scenes. Now here it is the morning after! Why are every body in shock and some awe that an Afro-American has become the Commander-in-Chief? I am not looking for bragging rights, but I guesstimated that Obama would at least garnish 320-electoral votes. So it is not a shock to this guy as a landslide was written on the wall. It is an evolutionary revolution. What shocks me more is concern upon Obama’s security and future well-being. It was great to see people rejoicing in the streets form the mountains to the prairies to the oceans. But I live up here in Alaska, Palin territory. I voted against Palin. She is a bigot and very possibly a genuine “Hillbilly”. But I don’t hold the latter against her, as I am Irish. This “Last Frontier” state didn’t do justice to Obama or do justice to America. In fact, the citizenry voted back to office a convict and a soon to be convict. When the 10-O’clock news tuned into the McCain & Palin headquarters’ here in Alaska, the faces on the damned party was damn scary. It only takes one insane individual to bring progress to a halt. Look at what happened to John Lennon. Look what happened to Martin Luther King. As mentioned before, it is an evolutionary process we find occurring today. And yes, revolutionary! But has the in-road revolution banning discrimination and racism forever stayed in touch with this evolution? Has rebellious bigotry been tamed enough to allow a black man to become president of the United States? Remember what John McCain said while he was imprisoned in Vietnam. “I am a Black Prisoner”. What did he really mean? It is ironic that John was the individual who tested the waters for the presidency against Obama, a “Black Man”. Again, it is one of those evolutionary things, we learn. Some things work, others require fine tuning. Time is on somebody’s side, all the time. Bottom line, I don’t trust society, especially that which surrounds me here in Alaska. From the racist rhetoric that was aroused by the McCain campaign, especially when Sarah was out on the trail of doom, it is evident that some still believe that all men are not created equal. If I were Obama, I would sure stay clear of Alaska! I am saying this as part of the 30-percent coalition that voted Obama into office. Qualifications were not a factor as race was more important for furtherance of this evolution, wherein the election process supports this revolution. And let us face the facts, what qualified Bush to take command for so many long years? From all around me I hear people complain out loud now, about Obama, the morning after. I am surrounded by racist bigots, as 7 out of 10 voted for McCain & Palin. With this in mind, I fear for Obama’s safety. I remember the picture of little boy Kennedy as he followed that casket along a crowded street with thousands of Americans in denial, to that scene I hope not a repeat. Maybe that is what was really behind Jesse’s tears. All it would take is some freak show republican goon to make waves, and it could become a reality with such an unstable Hannity inhumanity running free. I would not put it past the neo-conservative hoodlums – Hannity included – to plan out their fantasies to seize on the opportunity, plotting behind the scenes. Why? Because all the neo-pundits are coming forward and saying it is a great thing, Obama’s win, with a snake-oil smirk. It is a cover-up for a behind the scenes war that will set this country back many, many years. I just watched Pat Roberts, who claims Obama is brilliant and could go down as one of the greatest presidents of all times! This two-face round-about is scary. How can it be that on one day people make fun of Obama the “Terrorist”, the “Socialist”, then one day after another’s victory over defeat, then there is an unbelievable change of sentiment? It doesn’t make sense. I don’t believe one thing the bigots say, either with Obama or against Obama. I can still see Obama’s facial expression of concern as he walked across the stage of victory, that history should not repeat itself but nothing is guaranteed. If there is not some asinine assassin excited by the neo-base’s expectation, then I stand corrected. But I have made an oath. If something does indeed go wrong and we see Michelle take on the scourge of other great leader’s woman, like Coretta and Jacqueline, then I will go on the warpath. I will exercise my 2nd Amendment Right and mobilize a base that the likes of the neo-bigots will regret. I am mad. I am sad. At the same time I am proud that I voted for “Change”. And in closing, I ask the Creator to protect America, to protect this man who comes to walk with us from the mountains, this man called Obama, with us through the prairies, this brave man with “Change” in his pocket, all the way to the oceans with freedom. And here is a word of warning that I welcome. This country is on the road to socialism. This “Change” - part of the evolutionary revolution - is before us now a good card hand that gets us closer to where we cannot stop from going. It has come to that, like it or leave it alone. We have now a choice, to embrace this change or forfeit freedom for a more stubborn form of government, wherein a sickle guards the bigot’s freedom over the people’s freedom at last, as racism is the communistic creed and evidence tells me it is alive and well right in my own neighborhood!

Are We Stupid?

Look Obama was already “in” while most Alaskans were still at work. Which means a majority of Alaskans still had time to cast thy vote. A vote we could be proud upon. The 4-hour delay between here and there gives us an advantage. What are we stupid? The fact that this state exercised that vote in protest to “Change” is stupidity at its best! Either with them or against them is a thing of the past people! Don’t you get it? We should have taken pride in America and given support to Obama and “Change”. This time after factor gives us the opportunity to be proactive. But no-no-no, as corruption has and continues to take hold of righteousness. The fact that 70-percent of Alaskans are stupid is to be remembered. Yes indeed, 70-percent voted for the same old Bush doctrine, the doctrine that Sarah Palin is still trying to understand, or find on her Blackberry. And Sarah, you won’t find information to such in National Enquirer! As a matter of fact, Mad Magazine is a better starting point. But what does a pageant promoter know about politics? I admit with “pride and prejudice” that I am included in the 30-percent that voted against Palin! Proud to admit that I voted against Ted and Don. By the time Obama asked for everybody to join in and make America a better place following McCain’s congratulations, I was enjoying a Sam Adam’s six-pack. I was celebrating! So why do we allow our actions to make this state’s citizenry look like a bunch of “American’s Left Behind”? To vote Ted and Don back into office is a sad joke and a mad joke. It has nothing to do with loyalty. It is down right stupidity based on a fear factor. This state may believe in the 2nd Amendment but we are so shallow as individuals that we allow political bullies to infiltrate our decision making process. Let us face the facts again, Ted and Don are washed up. With “Change” coming to the Hill – Congress – they will garnish about as much power for pork as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. Alaska is already the laughing stock state of the union, because of the Palin follies. Did you see Sarah shed a tear when McCain quit? Maybe she was crying because she realized it was time to give back the wardrobe! To say that voting for the loosing party was in support of Palin, look at the repercussions. Obama may not hold grudges, but look who is in charge of Congress? Linda Pelossi still holds a grudge for when Don Young called her a “Rabid Skunk”. So forget about bridges to Nowhere. In fact, we will be lucky to get used toothpicks from the folks on the Hill. And with 40-percent of Alaskan jobs maintained by “porkenomics”, the un-employment lines will extend out into the gated communities of Anchorage. “Buddy can you spare a dime”, will be heard from the mountains to the oceans. Weaning, what is that? Let us face the facts fellow bigot Alaskans, Martin Luthur King’s dream has become a reality. Did you see how Jesse Jackson shed a tear during Obama’s “we’re in” speech. And the fact that the pundits are now referring to the GOP as the Party of the South, we have blown the chance to be part of the solution and are guilty of prejudice by association. We cannot continue on with such a low-down justification. Just in! John Binkley is offering free one-way river rides for democrats! And why is Ted afraid to stay at the Allen Estates down in Girdwood. Bill Allen, I bet he voted for the Ted and Don show, for a final laugh! But the joke is on us, for the political malfeasance and disregard for righteousness. Alaska did not vote its conscious. It voted for the loosing party out of greed. And the way Sarah Palin was used by a campaign that was washed up even before the tide ceased rolling in, this state needs a lesson. And with our courage to show the rest of the nation that we are indeed stupid, how low will we grow? And here is what the “Change” is up against: Economy, Iraq, Terrorist, Heath Plans and Energy. With respect to the economy, no taxation until a wage earner’s earned income equals that of a felon senator. Iraq, well I am sure with Obama at the helm that all will be quiet now on the frontlines and our troops can begin coming home. Why? Terrorist realize that Bush is gone and the threat from a McCain & Palin administration is no longer a concern. As far as a health plan? Just give me the same coverage that Native Alaskan’s get here in Anchorage, at that big humongous castle of a hospital over on Tudor, courtesy the BIA. I don’t mind government medicine. And energy, mass transportation is a beginning. In closing, Ted and Don remember these few lines, courtesy of Bob Dylan:

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum,
They’re one day older and a dollar short.
They got a prayer permit and a police escort.
They’re lyin’ low and they’re making hay,
They seem determined to go all the way.
Tweedle Dee is a low down sorry man.
Tweedle Dum, he’ll stab you where you stand.

And Sarah hear this,

“I ain’t going to work on Sarah’s farm no more”!

Duty Done

I went and exercised my sworn duty as an American citizen. That is, voted against Sarah Palin and Ted Stevens. I didn’t realize it was a “sworn” duty until I received a robo-call from Ted. He kept insisting I wasn’t home! Three nights in a row. But I was home and wanted to congratulate him on his verdict and future prospectus. How can Ted get to vote? Anyway, Ted emphasized that it was my duty to get out and vote. I usually vote for independence, as that virtue is granted and guarded under the Bill of Rights but seems to be on the attack by fundamentalists. If Sarah Palin is any indication of a new age base movement, it is nothing shy a bowel movement. Pathetic it is, to think this Alaskan has what it takes to run this country. Her policy and doctrine to govern is just more of the same bull-crap. In a nutshell, she has been a failure to Alaska as a governess. Case in point. Sure she stood tall against the oil industry with respect to taxation. She raised the operating taxes on this business that has been enjoying a favorable existence as a private entity for some 30-years by now in Alaska! In turn, the oil companies cancelled hundreds of local Alaskan projects. That in turn caused thousands of jobs to wither away. And she did indeed wrestle in a contract for a foreign entity to build a gas pipeline. It was a stupid speculative move. When the “American” oil companies operating in Alaska see it economically fit to build a gas line to send “their” gas to markets, then it will be a done deal. Sarah has a political IQ equal to but most likely less then George Bush when it comes to government. I think therein roams the problem, her popularity, more Bushism! At least it is entertaining and provides journalistic fodder. So it was worth the wait in line early on this Tuesday morning with temperatures hovering about 5-degrees to exercise my right to protect the Constitution. It is nice to realize that we can still protect that emancipator of freedom with a pen, an exercise of the 1st Amendment. But I do believe the evil will surface following the election wherein the 2nd amendment may come in handy. See, using the 1st is diplomacy at work, as most true Americans that practice and preach democracy are diplomatic in their ways and means. So a vote against Sarah and Ted is my contribution to protecting life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. I am a diplomat. Sarah, can you spell diplomat? Now with respect to the other things and challenges on the Alaska/National ballot, I don’t mind speaking my desires. For most of the Alaskan seat seekers, it meant a write-in candidate, PB&J. Yes, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich would provide better representation then those that are trying to break into the Corrupt Bastards Club. When Meyers and Van Pukin are the only ballot choices, something is dreadfully wrong. So it was write in. And at least kids can relate to a PB&J. And I don’t believe in guaranteed employment for judges. Hey, most hard working Americans now fall under the “At Will” employment doctrine, supported by the courts! So judges don’t need preferential treatment. If they want job security, organize! Can you image if all the judges unionized? Can you imagine if all the hourly wage earners across American organized under the same union umbrella? We can call it the Workers Party, maybe get Lech Walesa to coach us in getting what we deserve, freedom, good wages and workplace representation. What a health plan it would mean. What a retirement it would provide! If all of the hourly workers came together under one roof, the power we would have could reshape the sinking ship. This country needs to revamp it cross-country transportation infrastructure, with high speed rail transport, which means a whole lot of jobs to come for a long, long time. My children’s children would be afforded jobs on such a gigantic project. Anyway, I am glad to see that Obama has become the president. And it is still many hours away from when the voting quits. But what a chore he has ahead of him. To replace and make-up for what George Bush promoted in office and got away with. I don’t know of any bail out program that can right all the wrongdoing. Yes indeed, Obama has is work cut out. We have our work cutout also, to support his trials and tribulations. First on the agenda is to terminate all the Supreme Court Justices. What, jobs for life? What a deal. Who thinks of these ridiculous ideas that have no other intent accept to disenfranchise the will of true Americans? Anyway, heaven forbid that Sarah makes it to the White House. If so, I think it may be time to consider a Workers Union. When one considers that 40-percent of the jobs in Alaska are government funded employment, cutting down government will deliver disastrous effects. Can you imagine that many Alaskans out of work? So much for a healthy moose population! But most of the campaign crap that came from the mouths of the candidates during the last two years was all fluff. We are a country at war, a war of choice. Not what America is all about! We are a country at war with Wall Street, again not what America is all about. We are a country that has become the poster child of ridicule from abroad, laughed upon and crapped upon. Not what my country ‘Tis of Thee deserves. So maybe it is time for a new age party, wherein the workers finally get to control of destiny. I don’t know about Obama, but with the likes of Sarah hanging around the White House, we best unite. But I have faith in the people of this land, that when they come to exercise that right this day, to exercise that vote which shines upon the 1st Amendment, then they will have a change of heart and vote for America, and not offer up a Sarah Palin vote against America. Talk about a vote of no confidence! Sorry John McCain, you blew it with your pathetic choice of running mates. Just wait for tomorrow’s news and you will see what I mean! And please John, don’t let Palin come back to Alaska. Keep her by your side along with the Toad as we don’t deserve the pain and suffering of their painful campaigning.

Charitable Donation

So Sarah Palin is already tired of her new wardrobe! One-hundred and fifty thousand dollars of taxpayer money gone to hell. Sure it was a gift courtesy of the taxpayers, as McCain sided with public financing to take a run at the presidency. Why do I have to pay for someone else to play dress-up? It is nothing short a grownup’s game this political crap. Whatever happened to My America? Is there any righteousness left anywhere? But when Sarah and the MegaWitch – Palin’s asinine sidekick from Alaska – were ridiculed about Palin’s make-me-over wardrobe, it all of a sudden became not a gift but a campaign prop that would be turned over as a charitable donation. In fact, days following Sarah’s extravaganza wild shopping spree in New York City, she decided to wear her hand-me-downs form some consignment shop in Anchorage. Now the MegaWitch is proof that there is no life after Channel 2. Just how many things can backfire from within the McCain campaign? One thing for sure, when McCain retires a failure he can write a book, “How Not To Do It” with emphasis on how to pick a real running mate over a reality show Cinderella. But the wardrobe didn’t make it to the charity drop just yet, as Cindy has been seen wearing the duds up down and around the campaign trail. Get this, I bet it was stuff purchased on Cindy’s credit cards. Then somewhere along the wayward way it would be paid back by the taxpayers’ loot. Palin may not be a good running mate, but a shopping mate passes the muster. Now Cindy is smart, as it seems she plans to use the stuff before it is donated. And she will probably get a big write-off from the charity giving, once again courtesy of the taxpayers via a screw-job upon the taxpayers. See, this is how the rich continue to sabotage the American dream. Anyway, I was traveling around town and it seems that Ted and Don’s old stomping grounds for campaign advertising have gone by the wayside, as vacant lots seem to be the only place that welcomes their ridiculous re-election signs. These lots sport nothing but devils’ club and homeless shelters. In the past, re-election campaign signs for these scoundrels were to be found everywhere, on buses, on churches, you name it they owned it. Things are different today, as the cuffs are getting closer and closer. So I have come up with a brainstorm of an idea. With the economy nose-diving, we need to figure out ways to keep Alaska attractive, maybe recycle things that have fallen by the wayside. Take the Bill “NoseBleed” Sheffield train depot out at Ted Stevens International House of Crime – I mean Airport! Anyway, this facility has never seen a train, so why not turn it into a political jail? The nice big glass windows could be replaced with bars, and incarcerated inside would be all of Alaska’s political crooks, as a show and tell attraction that would provide two things of interest. First, it would be a reminder to Alaskans traveling about how things went out of control with this state’s political system. Ethics and righteousness, what’s that? And we wouldn’t have to worry about a turndown in population for the facility as repeat offenders are a sure bet and since this is a quality engrained in the DNA of Alaskan politicians - MoanaLisa - generations to follow will want to be members of the “Corrupt Bastards Club”. It is like the Skull & Bones membership, and instead of kissing Geronimo’s fermenting skull, kissing Bill Allen’s big fat ass is what it is all about. Secondly, Palin’s House of Political Incarceration - catchy title hey - it would be an attraction visitors could enjoy as soon as they touch down in Anchorage and cherish as a memory forever. Just think of the possibilities. A novelty shop could be incorporated to provide even more entertainment and profits. Corrupt Bastard memorabilia could be sold, along with autographed calendars and memoirs. In fact, the license plate making machines could be relocated and provide the incarcerated with gainful employment, right there before our very own eyes and ears. “That’s the sound of the men working on the chain gang.” Can you imagine what a scene this would create? And since the FBI is still on the hunt, there would be plenty of animals – I mean politicians – to be put on display for a project that would last to infinity. And Ted could do his time looking across the street, at the airport that allows his namesake. Maybe a few fake coconut trees would make Don feel at home. This would be real live entertainment. Hey, if people shovel out hard earned cash to visit a zoo, why not a live house of horrors? It would work, as during this political crises wherein John McCain picked Sarah Palin as a ruining mate, this state has become a novelty subject. People elsewhere make fun of this state, based entirely on the incompetence of our political leaders to the corruptness of the same, especially when a guy like Ted tells the world he is not guilty even though a jury said differently. Ted feels he is above others and gets to vote, even though in reality he is a sworn felon. Yes Ted, you swore an oath that seems to have parted good company for bad. All in all as citizens, are not we tired of the state of affairs wherein this state gets so blatantly ridiculed, even on Saturday Night Live? So we must fight back, if laughter is what they want and indeed the best medicine, a house of political incarceration fits the bill. And Bill “NoseBleed” Sheffield could be the curator. Live conjugal visits? I don’t think so. But Ted and Bill can live out the days of their lives making out, I mean making up. And the added income from this value added product openly displaying society’s wrath could only help to fatten up this state’s coffers, which means more welfare for the masses. What a mess.

Trade Union Trader

Joe the “Plumber” is a Trade Union Trader in a pitiful disguise! He is all about Sarah Palin, playing out his fantasies for her fantasies wherein this election is nothing but a pageant show show-down, me-me-me cuntry first, my country last. I guess birds of tarnished feathers do indeed fluck together. What a laughing crying joke this Palin has become. As an Alaskan, I am qualified to mock her absent mindedness. Her fit-for-duty rating is about to try George Bush’s disapproval record. She makes Mr. Potatoe Head – a.k.a. Dan Quayle – seem like an Einstein. If only the voters knew the true blue Sarah. When running mates must resort to SNL for free advertisement out of desperation, it is yet another show of party weakness. I can hear Ike laughing aloud. I can hear Nixon crying. And whatever happened to “Ask Not…” ? Sarah’s political aspirations for the future? Not on my watch! Now with only 3-days before the presidential election, Joe is heard rallying aloud the fact that he is voting for a “Real” American! Hey Joe, “where you going with that gun in your hand”? Obama is also a “Real” American. Probably far more a “Real” American then McCain. Remember, McCain went a turncoat while imprisoned when he broke the oath of silence, in efforts to obtain preferential treatment. He craved steak over dog food. He let his comrades down. He was allowed out of the dungeon while others suffered for his elite status upgrade, for being a true turncoat. Because John gave into the commies’ demands, the others were tortured even more, for their own stubbiness to abide by the military code of honor. McCain dishonored that code so it is not a surprise that he is dishonoring the presidential election process, by employing fans like Sarah and Joe. And if you thought George Bush’s Air National Guard record was a joke, how many planes did McCain crash? Daddy should have taken away the keys a long time ago! Anyway, Joe’s stupidity epitomizes the fact that he would have benefited from a government handout, like education. I do believe Joe the “Plumber” is the McCain poster child for the failed “No Child Left Behind” program. This guy is a genuine piece of political humor, but this is no laughing matter. His political ideals sound in intellectual deprivation. Let’s start from square one. Does he know what the 1st Amendment relates upon? Remember, we have the right to free speech but are also responsible for that speech. Now my grandfather was a plumber. In my line of work as a “Real” American hard working class tradesmen, I also get involved in pipes, big pipes that carry oil from Alaska’s North Slope oil fields. I guess Joe spent some time here in the Last Frontier, but left because he couldn’t take it or make it. Joe, please leave the plumber’s trade alone. Go away. Elope with Sarah and maybe start again where Papa Pilgrim left off. Anyway, what gets to me about Joe is this. It is just another vain attempt by John McCain to salvage his reputation at the expense of others. The McCain campaign – that has indeed run amuck – is trying to portray this guy as a true American. Well, there have been plumbers and tradesmen in history that have made a difference. One comes to mind, named Lech Walesa. Now Joe is nowhere near this character of a freedom fighter. Lech was a tradesmen that single handedly made a course correction upon an out of control government. He was a true statesmen, not a fake nor a trader. For McCain, and his followers, I see nothing but a turncoat affair. On the other hand, when I see Obama out and about operating in a cool and comfortable fashion, I must also realize that he has the election bagged, short some catastrophic calamity. And behind his goals and ideals, I see Lech’s realization as a guiding light. Along with Martin Luther Kings’s dream, about face about time coming true. And with this sharing of the wealth, maybe a little Huey Long, long overdue. Such character is being assassinated by McCain, Palin and ridiculed by Joe Blow. It is scary, their behavior, as we all know what happened to Mr. Long. We all know what happened to the Reverend. Joe, they were assassinated! And Lech had many attempts upon his life during his term in command. The fact that Joe Blow along with Sarah and McCain dabble in smear rhetoric like socialism fears and sharing the wealth lies, it is offering up the fuse of an assassination. It is an attempt to derail freedom at last, not only for the hard workers of America, but at the same time cast this nation over the edge. Only 3-days away, I fear for Obama’s life, liberty and his pursuit of happiness not only for himself, but for the huddled masses that deserve freedom over fear. Joe, you are a turncoat when you promote such aggravation upon America from the mountains to the prairies to the oceans. And realize this one fact Joe Jerk, McCain is using you! Be a man, stand down now. And get this, rumors abound that it was Cindy that made John pick Sarah as his running mate! Why? Because Cindy had Sarah figured out. Cindy speculated that Sarah would ruin the campaign, as Cindy wanted nothing to do with the White House. She is rich. She doesn’t need the job as 1st Lady of a Turncoat. So John will go down as a failure, erasing all his years of service by this campaign of deceit, going down just like Ted Stevens is going down for the count. Now I saw a movie called, “W”. It is basically George Bush’s memoirs published before he heads out to the same pasture of failure as Don Rumsfeld, Paul Wolforitz and the rest of the scoundrels. But George Bush achieved something that cannot be overlooked. He wasn’t daddy’s choice for the presidency as daddy Bush realized that no intelligence in the White House would mean an end to the Bush dysentery, I mean dynasty. The old man knew what he was talking about, as in three months time, that will become a reality. I doubt that a Bush will ever again make it into the history books. Of course George may make it to the war crimes tribunal. But I am glad that Bush was at least successful in disgracing the family jewels, such made so powerful by a conglomeration of liars and cheaters. So we don’t need anymore the likes of John McCain or Sarah Palin or Joe “Plumber” and company, as with the tearing down of righteousness by un-ethical and scare tactic political campaigning, they have succeeded also, in tearing down the GOP madness - forever Amen. Thank you George. And thank you John, Sarah and Joe for helping out in tearing down this wall of political deceit, the GOP wall. Tom Delay, hip-hip harrah! And with the DNC as weak as the hull of the EXXON Valdez, maybe this country can move forward on a course correction and a “great party” loyalty will arise out of the ruins, wherein socialism is not a bad thing after all forevermore. The bottom line is this. Our country ‘Tis of Thee is a socialistic country in disguise. When one considers the welfare from both parties, to keep the jobs infrastructure in tune along with “social” programs for the not so lucky, it is undeniable a socialistic government. When 40-percent of jobs are government funded, that is a GOP funded socialistic agenda. When “social” programs - like school funding for example - consume 40-percent of the Treasury’s pot of taxpayers’ gold, again we find a government mission nothing short of socialism. So enough is enough. America has been on the socialism bandwagon for a long time by now, and it has worked! Look around you. What are we afraid of, a label? Brother, can you spare a dime, sure! So maybe the Obama agenda is just that, a new society that has socialism as the base, love it or leave it, it works. Can you imagine what this country could achieve if we embraced who we really are, socialist! With socialism, there exists only one party, for the people. Wherein lobbyist are those in the unemployment lines, but socialism also takes their side into account – it doesn’t hold grudges. That is where this country roams, at the crossroads. Our days of capitalism have come to an end. We have the choice. We can either accept and embrace socialism or in time we will be forced to accept a harder line, called Communism. I prefer the former, as it still means a sense of freedom but equitable to the masses, the huddled masses. Socialism, coming soon to your local neighborhoods! A Change it is.
