Geography Lesson

Could you find Pakistan on a map?


Their nuclear border with Afghanistan runs to nuclear China. A line runs from Beirut through Syria, Iraq, nuclear Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. From Morocco, we travel east along the southern coast of the Mediterranean through muslim Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia and Somalia. These states are all more 'islamofascist' than they were before BushCo, right across the vital oil route from Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

I'm not intersted in making the investment required to ensure safe passage of petroleum from there to China, so we should all prepare ourselves to compete for Canadian oil.

And we’re in a corner at the UN. Iran is persuading the world to their cause. John Bolton is an idiot. What's the price of oil going to be when Iran cuts production? Are we so grateful to China for the cheap DVD players? Are we ready to lose Indonesia to the dark side? South Korea appears to be justifiably turned off to us, since we’re impotent in nuclear North Korea.

English again

Islamofascism. Brilliant word.
Problem:
The US is the party making demands and seeking extraterritorial influence, and thus BushCo seeks to be the appeased party. I agree we need to prevent a nuclear Iran, but I also know better than to trust our Executive's information. So when Santorum brings it up again remember he thinks US Treasury Bonds are worthless when it’s convenient.

These Republicans seek general war. It's the only reason they're so carefully pushing the Islamic dictatorships into the same corner with their enraged fanatic subjects. Nothing at the RNC happens by accident. We have to assume they’re succeeding- they get paid too much to be incompetent.

English

Play pool? English is what you put on the cue ball to make it spin correctly. You can make the cue ball ride all the way around a ball to hit the target, which could be set to spinning too. Sometimes you have to. But the shot happens once and it's over. The game continues, but no two shots are identical.

So why does the Blame the Democrats First party consistently try to spin "Blame America First"? I think we've all made it pretty clear we blame the Republicans. The whole mob tries like crazy to spin the story around the big ball in their path.

"Redeploy" is another piece of English. This time, it's us Americans being polite. Republicans of every stripe (maybe there are Republicans with other than a white stripe down their backs) complain: "Why don't they say 'withdraw' or 'surrender'?" I think what we're saying is this:

"Thank you very much Mr. Bush, you've done a super job. But now it's time to stop screwing up everything you touch. Go back on vacation. You said it yourself: Mission Accomplished. It was hard to ignore, you rode in a plane, landed on a carrier in the Atlantic and strutted before a big banner that read 'Mission Accomplished.' Still we wage war, so I guess that's the mission. Afghanistan was easy, relevant and incomplete- and with no oil or strong allies it wasn't causing any global trouble. Permanent war is the mission. I understand. Go back to Texas so we can return to a leadership position in the world. Ousting you would give us back the moral authority you squandered ineffectively as poilitical capital."

But this wouldn't be the first time they didn't read the memo.

Thank you Stentor Santorum!

(Stentor is a filter-feeding aquatic microorganism. It attaches itself to a piece of rot where the circulation of fresh water gives it plenty of fuel to sustain itself. Like Rickypoo, it is a bottom-feeder and its peers are slime.)

According to a giant billboard in Philadelphia, Ricky helped defeat Colo-Rectal Cancer. My aunt, a PA native has been living abroad for a while, in Texas and now Virginia. She got it anyway. But fact-based reality won't affect Ricky. Three important things should.

1) Instead of arguing about when to pull out of the RNC frat party in Iraq, they keep steering it back to 'whether'. That's unfortunate. As Ricky himself shrieks, Mahmoud Ahmedinijad speaks for Iran, which is a psycho. Let's sketch the 'When' discussion. Will we pull out of Iraq now, while it's a mess, or in ten years, when it's a mess? I'm asking because unlike Mahmoud, Iran's going to be there for a long time. And with 70% of the Iraq population, any increase in democracy swings power to Shiites. The only Shiite state in the world is our dear enemy Iran, which already holds more social sway there than we do. On behalf of Iran, let me thank Sentator Santoru, Reps Joe Pitts and Gerlach for doing their part on behalf of the people of PA to ensure they have smooth roads, running water and stable electricity when the Ayatollas come to take possession of the second-biggest oil reserve we've also taken the trouble of plumbing for them. That's one thing that should matter to ol' Rickypoo, but it's beyond him.

2) I heard it first from President Bush, but Ricky repeated it passionately at the PA Press Club: Those IOUs in a file drawer in Virginia (he should know) are worthless. The IOUs are actually US Treasury Bonds, for decades the most stable investment in the world. They are what Social Security owns. They are what the Chinese government buys when they bankroll the small-government party's voracious pork diet. Before Bush, government jobs were pretty good, but now it's the only way for Bush to hide unemployment: Hire people to work for the government. Sure, right now there are relatively few informants and secret police. But as we've known all along, open markets change society. And we're taking so much from China it's only a matter of time. Either we learn to speak Chinese, or we'll end up having to repay some of the worthless IOUs in the file drawer. Debt matters, China matters, and the government's role in the economy matters to me and other Pennsylvanians, but with his US-Government pension, he's beyond worry.

3) Investigations probably do matter to Rickypoo. We built an infrastructure in Iraq, but not in Afghanistan where Bin Laden's gang lived and trained. With no oil revenues ever, they have no exports or indigenous industry and actually needed the help. We accomplished our Iraq mission, according to the President several years ago, but still we wage war. Is that the mission? Santorum, Gerlach and Pitts are going to have to explain where the money went when 'Fuckoff' Dickie's ol' boys got the Iraq job and stole billions of dollars from the Treasury they all mean to drain. Hurricane Katrina wandered slowly north from the tropics, and the Republican FEMA (Financing Exotic Millionaire Acreage) did nothing to help these blue black states. Terry Schiavo was headed for peace, and the entire government showed up and worked late to write laws against natural death.

Politics is about priorities. Ricky and his childish dimwit friends in the RNC have prioritized lionizing Iran, turning Korea into a bogeyman we are powerless to affect, pouring the country's current and future treasure into vanity wars, strengthening communist regimes, expanding the size while diminishing the strength of government and throwing money around like it's theirs over improving the conditions for freedom and prosperity in their home states. And now Iran is stronger, Korea more desparate. China and Cuba are no longer the only remaining Red states. They're screwing up the whole world.

Give that funny-head slanted grinner a retarded test.

3-way with Ricky Santorum?

I'm interested in the rebirth of Ricky. Normal Catholics aren't reborn, but this one has to (tack left) appear more moderate now, good with the environment, pragmatic in his approach to sucking George Bush's dick. I guess sometimes he doesn't finish, and that's when Georgie gets frustrated and looks for less high-profile Americans to fuck in the ass.

But I can't forget Ricky's eloquent arguments against privacy as a Constitutional protection on the Senate floor. Equating homosezuality with bestiality seems a bit fucking loopy. And his book calls for an end to women in the workplace. Press materials for that book said he knew it was extrmee, but he had to be honest. And when he drives home from Washington, he goes south to Virginia. Like he actually drives. So he's what- extremely moderate? He can live in Virginia, represent Texas, and get paid in PA?

Now get this: Ricky recently endorsed an approach to generating stem cells he's comfortable with destroying in research. All you have to do is create a modified human! If it's not quite hunman, he won't mind. But a real human like Terry Schiavo has no right to die. Mortality will be a crime, and cyber-geno-manic stem-cell parts cars are part of his plan? A second class of humans, and of course a master race?

As the #3 man (could #2 smell worse?) in the RNC, Ricky IS the Republican Party, and he IS responsible for ruining 50 years of progressive movement in government, he IS part and parcel with the K Street/Abramoff/DeLay/Ney/Ralph Reed dung heap running our country, the proxies of Texas maniacs.

These RNC feds botched Katrina, right? After Ricky's skillful appointment of incompetents, we can't ignore Ricky's earlier calls to disband the National Weather Service (Which accurately and adequately raised flags during Katrina's approach) because the Weather Channel can do the same thing for profit. Bush was told about it to his face, and we have it on video. It was hard to ignore, but Ricky, Georgie and the rest of the frat pack rose to the occasion. Watching it on TWC would have helped how?

Now he's trying to reverse himself symbolically to rebrand as suitable for high office. Just forget everything he's said, done, participated in, where he lives or who he breaks bread with.
