This is Monday morning October
8, 2012 when we celebrate the Rapist in Chief, Christopher Columbus landing on
Haiti or what became it, and the sex slave and genocide incorporated bit and
all that. I had that Chicano guy on for
a half hour at nine o clock this morning.
Then I got on computer and played that link from Tim about that debate
that KPFK had perhaps six weeks ago. It
was Michael Eric Dyson debating Glen Ford of the Black causus, even though he
was white. Dyson said President Obama
was leading the liberals into a new primised land and Ford said that Obama was
a facilitator of Evil. Perhaps a good
campaign slogan now might be “Don’t slow walk the Revolution – Elect Mitt
Romney” because as I heard from Mike Meloy many weeks ago we’ll eventually get
a people’s revolution with either choice but the people will come to realize
their mistake a whole lot quicker with Romney.
President Obama has betrayed the left in ever conceivable way by moving
the fifty yard line in advance, ceding needless ground in advance to
Republicans. You can’t argue with the
logic of it. Then I was looking for
something by Joe Byden and after a few tentative starts with other speeches
settled on the speech given in Waterloo, Iowa this morning, and Byden had a
cold, which I hope he still doesn’t have Thursday night. Then I looked at “Lies Obama told” from
Judy. I got as far as the first so
called “lie”. This one states that the
Republicans sat on the sidelines while medicare and Social Security were being
passed in congress. I thought these were
realities that nobody disputed because most I’ve heard most of my life that the
Republicans fought these things tooth and nail and only a very lopsided
congress prevented the Republicans from stopping both bills. But IF the Republicans in 1935 and 1965 did indeed
vote for these respective programs My first thought was that nobody will be
able to look back at the affordable care act and say that the Republicans
helped to pass THAT. I’d like to mention
one more thing from last night. There is
another words Christians should never, never use, and that is “Co-dependancy”. This means that you blame others for your
problems and “Don’t have the fiber to forget who caused the problem and tackle
whatever problem you are facing now, because of others, all without anyone’s
help. I happened to think of
Christianity that for one says sin came from Adam being tempted by the serpent in
the Garden of Eden and consuming the Fruit of Original Sin, and that we CANNOT
cure ourselves alone but need Jesus’ help.
According to Judy, Jesus has not become obsolete- - and anyone who can’t
handle their own problems is just a whimp.
We had cheeseburgers for
lunch. The rice soup with a few weenies
in it, was really good and that’s what I told Laura when she asked me. I would have had seconds but they ran
out. I did have an extra half cheeseburger,
and there were French fries and catsup.
We had an orange for desert. Basically
I fell asleep during Randi Rhodes. I see
that “Randi” no longer gets red lined like it used to. Anyhow Nicole on the soap opera is on the
verge of slitting her wrists because some on the ball nurse left her all alone
for an extended period of time after being told that her baby was dead. I don’t know if there is any tie in between
that and the computer mal-functions they’ve been having. She saw Dr. Daniel holding Jennifer’s hand
and got the wrong impression. I went
looking for a cigarette because I was now out, and finally managed to get one
from Bill, before heading off to that class, so I don’t know how the “Days”
hour came out.
It was a day of more
trivia and how corporations can rip you off.
The lady that drew the Snap, Crackle, and Pop characters that are on
Rice Krispies to this very day- - got paid nothing for her services. She began working for the corporation but
when she wanted legal rights to her creation she sewed the company. And when she lost the company fired her. The man who wrote Rudolph the Red Nose
Reindeer in 1938 or whenever for Montgomery Wards- - originally wasn’t paid
royalties for the song but later the Company prospered so well and felt guilty
and so gave the guy rights to his own song, and so the guy got rich. But later he got bored and decided to come
back to work for Montgomery Wards. The
lady showed us a chart of the three Beefeaters outside the tower of London and
they are all really the same size but look different sizes. It’s an optical illusion thing. We have a smart group in the room. The Planters Peanuts cartoon with the monocle
and top hat, was drawn by a thirteen year old boy, who basically got paid
nothing. The face on the box of Sun Maid
raisons was a twelve year old girl sitting on her porch when an executive
passed by and wanted to photograph her.
She got paid next to nothing. And
the voice of Tony the Tiger died not too long ago. Of course he did the voices on so many Disney
rides like the Haunted Manson song. He
got rich from saying the word, “Great!”
And then there were the two stories about the runners and if you pass up
the guy in second place, you are now second.
But I screwed up on the other one.
If you pass up the guy in last place what position are you now? That’s a trick question. It logically can’t happen like a lot of
theological stuff can’t logically happen.
Stephen couldn’t have literally “seen” Jesus at the right hand side of
God, because Jesus himself is also God, and Got is omni-present, and so he is
everywhere- and there can’t be to the right or to the left or above or beneath anything. Here’s another logical jaw breaker for
Theologians they can’t answer. “Is
everything that happens on Planet Earth, ultimately in the Will of God?” Be careful how you answer. You can’t answer it. She ended up class with those “Can-struction”
photos of just ordinary cans arranged into gigantic objects. It’s all their native colors. We had coffee from Sarah about ten after
two. Class concluded about ten to three
and then I went to the upstairs patio and borrowed another cigarette from Bill.
Last night Judy called
a little after seven thirty. That call
was oppressive from start to finish. The
Chargers and Saints game was just getting interesting but she kept me on the
line for 25 minutes I’d guess talking about how their hot water heater went out
and the pipes leaked and how the government came in and made her make all these
modifications to her closet. Why do all
these things happened to her and Paul?
That’s what I asked God last night.
I wish God would knock it off and give these two a break. Because Judy was starting to sound like she
is headed for a nervous break down. Her
health is at risk. If California is
really such a horrible state with its Godless educational public schools and
all, maybe they really should move out of the state. Judy is voting No on proposition 38. Again she began attacking me saying how I have
it too good and I don’t work and that’s why I’m a liberal. I got a little testy and informed her I had
my liberal conversion late in the year 2005, and I resent the idea that I’m a
liberal out of sheer greed. Judy went on
to say that a poor person looking at the super-abondance of a Rich Person and
wishing he had just a little of that wealth himself, is guilty of one of the
most damnable sins in the whole Bible, and only homosexual is a sin of equal
evil. Last night I got medication down
stairs from Sarah and even though it was a long line, it moved quickly. Then after EWN it was “On the Red Carpet” and
America’s Funniest Home Videos - - which I watched the first twenty minutes of
switching to football. The Chargers were
ahead but New Orleans got some favorable penalty calls and eventually passed on
by to win the game, I think by a score of 31 to 24. By now I had completely missed the Simpson’s
and nearly half of Bob’s Burgers as it was approaching a quarter to nine. Then it was “Family Guy” till nine thirty,
and then I went to bed. I slept pretty
well, despite that horrible encounter with Judy.
IN CONCLUSION I'd like to relate how a few days ago I got so disgusted I honestly felt that I really DIDN"T CARE who was elected President next month. Again, we'll gain so little with an election of President Obama, if the tea party runs the rest of the federal, state, and local governments, that nobody will know the different. President may go down in History as the most impotent President since Andrew Johnson. One of those two debaters said President Obama was the most Progressive President we've had in a long time. Not so. Jimmy Carter, Nixon, Johnson, Eisenhaur, Truman, and Kennedy were more progressive in just about any measure you could gauge. You know if Romney would make the tea baggers happy - it were like giving a baby a passifyer to shut him up and keep him from whining all the time driving everybody nuts, I'm half tempted to say "Go ahead and have your stupid Executive figure head. As Glen Ford pointed out- - it seems the Left Wing gets freed up to speak their mind under a Republican President but with Obama in office it's as though every progressive out there has lost his faculty for speech, which was the same thing they said about the Roman Emperor, Domecian. The ammount of progressives you see in these Sunday news interview shows had slowed to a trickle. It seems all they want is apologists for the tea party on their news programs now. Is this some throwback thing to Spiro Agnew's November 1969 speech about bias in the media or what? Spiro Agnew is dead now, isn't he? Why do we have to continue to placate him? Among my own piers as I say there have been an amazing number of conversions from Romney to Obama in the last few weeks. Even Dr. Levy is willing to call a civilized truce on the matter. These people on the tea bagger Right conflate all their personal life issues- - with politics and race, and God, and who knows what else. They remind me of that Last Juror in the movie "Twelve Angry Men" who was having some kind of an emotional melt down in the deliberation room. We don't need scenes like that controling our politics. When Politics becomes that obsessive with these people where it litterally drowns out all other conversational topics- - then you have unstable Neurotics running the Country.
AND NOW THE "HER MAJESTY" BEEFEATER POSTLUDE. This morning I got up
at five thirty and had the last fifteen minutes of Bill Press on and then it was
Stephanie Miller. We had oatmeal for
breakfast and without sugar. We had
scrambled eggs and a bagel and cream cheese.
I also got an additional bagel and cream cheese from Mark, who also gave
me what turned out to be four cigarettes- - , which helped a lot. But after breakfast I dozed off during that
hour of Stephanie Miller and every time I looked at my watch I was amazed at
how much time had passed. Nora was just
in and out of here and Bill went outside and I’m going out now and try and snag
another cigarette from him.
