On a postive note! [08 Sep 2005|06:09am]
"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality, and so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."

- Barbara Bush speaking on the survivors housed at the Superdome in New Orleans.

You see everyone, this was a GOOD thing! If you're poor and black in New Orleans it's much better to have a hurricane destroy your entire life then it is to continue living in that ghetto ass house you used to have. Now you have the Superdome! I mean shit, just listen to the name. SUPERDOME!! And get this, the lawn, it's astroturf. No one needs to mow it! AND there's a huge Jumbotron widescreen TV for everyone, you know, when we can drain all the water and restore electricity. Until then you can just chill, and one of these days we might bring you some food and water. It's almost better than heaven!

If you haven't seen this yet you should watch it. Keith Olbermann sums up the situation.

http://media.putfile.com/OlbermannSwings

I too waited a while to comment on the terrible crisis in New Orleans. I wanted to give everyone concerned the benefit of the doubt due to the severity of the situation. But at this point it's time to start asking some questions. If our government can't protect us from a natural disaster that they had known about for days how can they possibly protect us from anything else? Obviously I'm not saying that they could somehow magically stop the storm but they could have done something to increase their chances. Like maybe reinforce the levees they knew couldn't withstand the magnitude 5 hurricane that was bearing down on the city.

This is pretty good too. Even right wing ass Scarborough is dissing the white house over this one.

Brown pushed from last job: Horse group: FEMA chief had to be `asked to resign'
By Brett Arends
Saturday, September 3, 2005 - Updated: 02:01 PM EST

The federal official in charge of the bungled New Orleans rescue was fired from his last private-sector job overseeing horse shows. And before joining the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a deputy director in 2001, GOP activist Mike Brown had no significant experience that would have qualified him for the position.

The Oklahoman got the job through an old college friend who at the time was heading up FEMA. The agency, run by Brown since 2003, is now at the center of a growing fury over the handling of the New Orleans disaster.



``I look at FEMA and I shake my head,'' said a furious Gov. Mitt Romney yesterday, calling the response ``an embarrassment.''

President Bush, after touring the Big Easy, said he was ``not satisfied'' with the emergency response to Hurricane Katrina's devastation. And U.S. Rep. Stephen Lynch predicted there would be hearings on Capitol Hill over the mishandled operation.

Brown - formerly an estates and family lawyer - this week has has made several shocking public admissions, including interviews where he suggested FEMA was unaware of the misery and desperation of refugees stranded at the New Orleans convention center.

Before joining the Bush administration in 2001, Brown spent 11 years as the commissioner of judges and stewards for the International Arabian Horse Association, a breeders' and horse-show organization based in Colorado. ``We do disciplinary actions, certification of (show trial) judges. We hold classes to train people to become judges and stewards. And we keep records,'' explained a spokeswoman for the IAHA commissioner's office. ``This was his full-time job . . . for 11 years,'' she added.

Brown was forced out of the position after a spate of lawsuits over alleged supervision failures.

``He was asked to resign,'' Bill Pennington, president of the IAHA at the time, confirmed last night. Soon after, Brown was invited to join the administration by his old Oklahoma college roommate Joseph Allbaugh, the previous head of FEMA until he quit in 2003 to work for the president's re-election campaign.

The White House last night defended Brown's appointment. A spokesman noted Brown served as FEMA deputy director and general counsel before taking the top job, and that he has now overseen the response to ``more than 164 declared disasters and emergencies,'' including last year's record-setting hurricane season.

I just watched an interview with the mayor of New Orleans. He told the interviewer how they found one escape route out of the city proper. One route that wasn't flooded. When the conditions at the superdome became unbearable the people started asking if there were any other options. The help wasn't coming. Their families were dying. The mayor suggested that they could walk the route across the overpasses to reach the point where the buses could pick them up and transfer them somewhere safe. So they formed a march comprised of the survivors that wanted to make the journey on foot. They were met at the Parish County line with police dogs and machine guns. They were ordered to turn back. Apparently the Parish County police were concerned the march would consume the neighborhoods in a frenzy of looting. The mayor suggested that they airdrop them supplies so they wouldn't need to forage for food. They were still turned away.

Animal Rights? [31 Aug 2005|02:31pm]
[ mood | geeky ]
[ music | Pixies - Boom Chick A Boom ]

I know I'll get blasted for this but it's something I've been thinking about lately. It pisses me off that some people can be so pretentious as to think they have the right to determine which lifeforms should be edible and which shouldn't. Just because a tree may not be furry and cute doesn't mean that it has no right to life. Did everyone forget about the millions of microbial lifeforms they consume with every bite of everything? With every breath they take? I find it amusing that we can so easily forsake life that predates us by millions of years. Life that we evolved from. If another huge rock smashes into the earth it won't be the humans that survive, it will be the plants. It has happened many times before and the outcome has always been the same. Who is smarter again? I have a hard time answering that question.

The intelligence inherent to a plant doesn't reside in a central brain and nervous system but in the DNA of every plant cell. Genetic intelligence. Due to the more complex nature of a human organism when an infant human is born it will die very quickly if not maintained by it's parents. A seed on the other hand is ready to rock from day one. No parenting, no teaching, no help of any kind. It just needs to find a suitable environment in which to grow, some seeds can wait decades/centuries for this to happen, and it's fully self sufficient. Who's to say which evolutionary path is the right one? If we're talking about longevity then plants have us beat. If we're talking about benefits for the environment then plants definitely have us beat. Without them humans couldn't exist. If we're talking about art, history, and culture, again I think the plants have outdone us. If that doesn't make sense then you've never walked through a multi-hued pasture full of wildflowers ringed by old growth monoliths.

So what is he saying?

The point I'm trying to make is this. All life is precious and beautiful. All life deserves protection and the right to inhabit this planet. There's no reason to take sides on this issue. We all live within a symbiotic environment and every piece is crucial to the puzzle.

A gallon of regular unleaded gas jumped .16 cents last night......................

They are saying that gas prices have doubled since March of 2002. Seriously, was there ANY reason at all to invade Iraq? They obviously didn't have any WMD's and the gas prices have doubled since we started our little reorganization "over there". This is getting fucking ridiculous.

Sin City [22 Aug 2005|09:34pm]
[ mood | contemplative ]
[ music | Skinny Puppy (Goneja) ]

I just finished watching Sin City. Instant favorite. Fucking amazing. However, after the recent discussion on explicit art censorship I'm interested in hearing the views of anyone else who has seen it. I can see all the same themes repeated in this movie as they are depicted in the GTA series. The entire main cast is white. Women are relegated to the roles of prostitutes. The violence most certainly rivals that of any video game or movie to date. Would you be more inclined to label Sin City art? Or is it just as racist, sexist, and overly violent? Can you even label an artistic expression with such outdated and misleading descriptions? I personally believe you can't. I also believe that when we try to do so we are inherently taking a step backwards in our societal thought process.

I think the Catholics are on a decidedly negative PR campaign. [17 Aug 2005|11:55am]
[ mood | amused ]

Apparently there are nuns protesting Tom Hanks over his involvement with the movie production of The Da Vanci Code. They are furious because a fictional story presents a fictional account about a most likely fictional historical event. I mean, why stop there. Let's start protesting the set of King Kong. King Kong wasn't in the bible! That's fucking biblically inaccurate mother fucker!

In all fairness, who is portrayed as the stronger character in a screenplay. Luke Skywalker or Jesus? I think we all know the answer to that question. No one would choose to be Jesus. Jesus doesn't have a fucking lightsaber and robotic prosthetics. Ok, so he can walk on water and feed some people, big deal. Can he lift an X-Wing out of an alien bog while doing a handstand and balancing an annoying talking green turd on his foot? I didn't think so! Anyway......back to my point. There have been far worse "depictions" of the "events" that took place in the bible. They made Monty Python's, Life Of Brian in England as well.

This is my advice to Catholics across the globe. CALM DOWN, It's a movie! It's not REAL! They're ACTORS!

GOODBYE "RED" UNITED STATES [15 Aug 2005|01:32pm]
[ mood | amused ]


Originally posted by midibite on www.b0g.org.

GOODBYE "RED" UNITED STATES

The residents of the Blue States intend to form our own country!

In case you aren't aware, that includes Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeastern United States. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation.
To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states.

We get stem cell research and the best beaches.
We get Elliot Spitzer. You get Ken Lay.
We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.
We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.

We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share.

Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families.
You get a bunch of single moms.

Please be aware that our new nation will be pro-choice and
anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once.
If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals.
They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home.
We do wish you success in Iraq, and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.

With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners), 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.

With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.

Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in
9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.

By the way, we're taking the good Pot too.
You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico.

Sincerely,
Nation Blue.

P.S...we don't like you and we don't need you.

I fucking love August! [10 Aug 2005|07:50pm]
[ mood | cold ]
[ music | Pixies - Dead ]

Well, just like last August I'm being evicted, yet again. I guess having one job where I work EVERY FUCKING DAY WITHOUT ONE DAY OF VACATION isn't good enough. Apparently I need another job because someone with an IQ of 136 is just wasting their life working for the Oregonian. (Maybe I think he's wasting his life working for a company that profits off of death and misery. But that's just my opinion.....) If you haven't already guessed I'm referring to the step parent from hell again. He said he wants to see me "Be all I can be", by throwing me out on the street again. Hmmmm, I guess I'm pretty smart, but I still don't understand his idiotic logic. Oh wait, that's because he's a fucking moron. I asked him if he would like to see me be all I can be by joining the army and dying in Iraq. He said he would love that. I ask again, can you feel the love?

I guess this shit is going to be a yearly tradition for me. Last year I was evicted twice. I'll have another one here at the end of this month. I think that makes a total of six so far. I'm fucking racking the evicts up yo! At least I have a nice car to sleep in this time around. The last time I was homeless I was sleeping in a piece of crap ford escort station wagon with the back window broken out. That wasn't a whole lot of fun. Of course I feel bad whining becasuse I know how many homeless people don't even have the luxury of a piece of crap over their heads.

So if anyone wants an intelligent waste of space that can pay a couple of hundred bucks a month as a roommate let me know.

I really hope that there are a few of you out there who have actually found some happiness in life because I honestly don't know why I waste time being alive anymore. It's really proving to be an exercise in tragic futility.

[Edit: I have to be out by the 1st of September.]
