A Warning for Women and Those who Love Them!

­"Republicans want smaller government with less control over our personal lives."

Conservatives want  nothing short of ideologica­l control of lives - control over women in particular­.

Republicans want to criminalize abortion but at the same time they want to eliminate funding for all the programs that help poor mothers and children. They deny women the ability to control how many children they have then also deny them the help they need to raise the children they have. It all comes down to their desire to control women and keep them dependent. stem from a set of basic and consistent religious principles that have long been at the heart of conservative, Republican politics.

Women need to have more children and they need to be prevented from having any sort of control over when they get pregnant or how often they get pregnant. At the same time, they must be denied any assistance (public assistance, as opposed to faith-based assistance from churches where aid can be tied to accepting traditional Christian ideas about women's social roles) in raising those kids, educating those kids, or keeping those kids healthy. This is their idea of to force women to abandon their rebellion against God and men. 

Once they abandon their feminist rebellion, they will recognize their true place at the feet of the men in their lives. Once they take the learn their place in society, men will also learn their place and then all of society will be healthy again. The economy will be right again, politics will be right again, and all will be good with the world. In this way, practically everything that's wrong with the world is attributed one way or another to women failing to adhere to the traditional social roles that Christianity demands. In effect, women and feminism are to blame for everything and thus putting them in their place is the solution to everything.

Republicans are anti personal freedom. They only support freedom of corporations to control the world. They want people censored so people will be good sheep. They want to take our rights away...

1. Who to marry
2. What religion to worship
3. Who to have sex with
4. Where to build your place of worship
5. Where to go for entertainment
6. What ideology to follow
7. What language to speak
8. Who gets to be a U.S. Citizen
9. Who is Christian
10. Who you give birth to.

Is it clear enough to you yet? You are at war against conservative fascists for your rights and freedoms. 

Are you going to let them take them?

Stupid legislative bills are a reflection of the legislator Stupid Republicans! WTF!?

 Legislation, moved by Florida senator Jim Morgan, would make it a felony to take photos or videos of farms without written permission from the owners. The bill does not explain the reasons behind it.

A similar bill was put forward in Iowa, but that one focuses on making it illegal for people to shoot undercover videos and gain access to farming facilities under false pretenses.

Proposed penalties include fines of up to $7,500 and up to five years in prison.

The Iowa legislation is in response to animal activist groups, which have released videos taken from inside farming facilities, said Iowa Senator Sandy Greiner.“They film it to bring a business down, and that individual that’s abusing those animals should be prosecuted as well as the person filming because they’re allowing it to happen without attempting to stop it,” she told theBrownfield Ag News. She also wants the bill to apply to county fairs, rodeos and other situations involving livestock.

Neither bill has yet been passed. The Florida bill is proposed to take affect July 1.

Factory farms and the people who work at them are not always very nice, but banning photography there is not the answer. These laws would be difficult to enforce and there are already rules in place to deter animal abuse.

But wait! As Republicans want cows and vegitables to have more rights, they want the poor to have less!

Republicans in Minnesota are pushing a bill which would make it a crime for people on public assistance to have more $20 in cash in their pockets on any given month. Previously, their proposal was to ban them for having any money at all. 

None of the officials who moved these bills could not be reached for comment. WTF do you think?

Little Sara can't come out to play. She is in federal prison for 5 years for taking a picture of  a cow with her pink kitty camera.

Really, what is wrong with you people!!!!!!!!

Fourteen Defining Characteristics Of Fascism is your Governor one?

 Fourteen Defining
Characteristics Of Fascism
By Dr. Lawrence Britt

Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany),Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining  characteristics common to each: 1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic motto's, slogans, symbols, songs, and  other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere,  as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.   2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights -  Because of fear of enemies  and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions,  assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.   3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause -  The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.   4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a  disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.   5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascistnations tend to be almost  exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes,  traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed  and the state is represented as the ultimate  guardian of the family institution.   6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by  the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation,   or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives.  Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.   7. Obsession with National Security -  Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.   8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and  terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.   9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracyof a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power,  creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.   10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.   11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate  open hostility to higher education,and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.   12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given  almost limitless power to enforcelaws.  The people are often willing to overlook  police abuses and even forgo civil liberties  in the name of patriotism. There is often a  national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.   13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption -  Fascist regimes almost always aregoverned by groups of friends and associates  who appoint  each other to government positions and use  governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national  resources and even treasures to be appropriated  or even outright stolen by government leaders.   14. Fraudulent Elections -  Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by  smear campaigns against or even assassination of  opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and  manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control  elections. Image via Wikipedia

The Hand That Feeds, the future is here, wake up!

Send "The Hand That Feeds" Ringtone to your Cell

Welcome to your future moron! The future is closer than you think. The future is NOW!!

You're keeping in step
In the line
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine
Because you do
What you're told
But inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

What if this whole crusade's
A charade
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
For the blood
On which we dine
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

I keep holding on to what I want to believe
I can see
But I keep holding on and on and on and on

Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
Will you stay down on your knees?

Rebublicans Hump bp's Leg!

  
WTF!!!!!!!Like the well paid whore dogs they are, Republicans are sticking up for bp! WTF!!!!!!!

Mississippi governor Haley Barbor (R) said that “It’s just as possible that what happens here will be manageable and of moderate and even minimal impact.” Barbour further went on to caution against “washing our face in it” but said the spill could still render the ocean safe enough to allow “jumping off the boat to ski.” 

Will killing all the animals in the Gulf of Mexico make the water safe for you wussy governor?

When the Obama administration did something useful and scored the $20 billion escrow account, Barbour expressed “concern” that the fund could cut into BP’s profits.

BTW, If you didn't know, bp's profits for the first quarter of 2010 were $5.6 BILLION.

Sen. Inhofe (R) of Oklahoma blocked a bill to raise the cap on corporate oil spill liability from the ridiculously piddling amount of $80 million. "Any company that can't afford to clean up its own messes doesn't deserve the right to drill off-shore.

Michele Bachmann (R) called the escrow account a “redistribution of wealth fund.”

  

Former Texas Representative Dick Armey (R) said that Obama lacks the constitutional authority to set up such a fund.

 

Georgia Representative Tom Price (R) said, "BP's reported willingness to go along with the White House's new fund suggests that the Obama administration is hard at work exerting its brand of Chicago-style shakedown politics. These actions are emblematic of a politicization of our economy that has been borne out of this administration's drive for greater power and control."

Joe Barton (R) of Texas, The top recipient of oil and gas industry campaign contributions of $1,447,880. left this steaming pile of dog shit on the Congressional Senate floor after his massive leg hump. 

I'm speaking now totally for myself. I'm not speaking for the Republican Party, I'm not speaking for anybody in the House of Representatives but myself. But I'm ashamed of what happened in the White House yesterday. I think it is a tragedy of the first proportion that a private corporation could be subjected to what I would characterize as a shakedown--in this case, a $20 billion shakedown--with the attorney general of the United States, who is legitimately conducting a criminal investigation, and has every right to do so to protect the interests of the American people, participating in what amounts to a $20 billion slush fund that's unprecedented in our nation's history, that's got no legal standing, and which sets, I think, a terrible precedent for the future ... There is no question that BP is liable for the damages. But we have a due process system where we go through hearings, in some cases court cases, litigation, and determine what those damages are and when those damages should be paid. So I'm only speaking for myself, I'm not speaking for anybody else, but I apologize. I do not want to live in a country where any time a citizen or a corporation does something that is legitimately wrong, he's subjected to some sort of political pressure that is again, in my words, amounts to a shakedown. So I apologize. 

So please leave the country! Only the oil companies will miss you bitch.

And the "CMA*" award goes to.........

Republican House leaders John Boehner (R), Eric  Cantor (R) and Mike Pence (R)  whom came out with the following statement.

"BP itself has acknowledged that responsibility for the economic damages lies with them and has offered an initial pledge of $20 billion dollars for that purpose,"

*Cover My Ass, not Country Music Awards.

 

With all these R's coming to poor, small bp's rescue from the tyrannical Obama, They sounds like a bunch of pirates to me!

WTF? people! These republicans are sending into the hole while pushing you off a cliff at the same time. These unamerican bitches do not care for you the SMALL people. Forget them when you vote, as if you could actually drag your sorry ass off the couch. You won't vote or you have no idea who you are voting for, such as the case of Greene-D in South Carolina. All you can do is sit and bitch, bitch.

"ARRRRR, we are here to plunder you! ARRRRRRRR"

Connie Mack, Congressman Elected Under Assumed Name!

Can a Congressman get elected and seated using an alias?

Does the vote for a person using an assumed name count?

Is there not a law dealing with this? WTF!

One Congressman has done this, Cornelius Alexander McGillicuddy IV who uses the alias of Connie Mack IV, (R-FL)

McGillicuddy was listed on the 14^th district ballots as Connie Mack. A Certificate of Fictitious or Assumed Name can not be located for a Connie Mack. The web site for Congressman Mack does not mention Cornelius Alexander McGillicuddy IV. and his Fort Myers residence is listed on the tax roll as owned by Cornelius McGillicuddy IV. There is no Congressman legally named Connie Mack.

This charade is abetted by his wife, Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack (R-CA) by her failure to use the McGillicuddy name.

I contend that, by using an assumed name, both parties are illegally seated in Congress and should be removed from office for fraud.
