young broke and republican
Monday February 20, 2006
When gazing through a prism of conservatism on a consumer level one may interpret many facets of capitalism. There are the fiscally restrained which make up most of the millionaires in America. Then there are the super-rich who splurge on luxuries but who are still quite conservative when taking into consideration their income brackets and over all net worth. Which leads us to the ultra mega monstrous rich (normally "old" family money) who tend to lead luxurious lives of splurge and gluttony and normally piss off the "average" rich. I find my own existence to be found in the last facet found which is that of the hard working, hard saving American who busts their ass and plows their way through frugality to hopefully find themselves someday to be comfortable with the ratio between what they earn and what they want.
I was thinking of the things I would want in life as I get older this past Saturday, when I heard a story on the L.A. radio show Jon and Ken (kfi 640 am, kfi640.com) about a group of San Franciscan spend thrifts called the "Compact". They have agreed to buy no new products beyond groceries and underwear during the entire year of 2006. If they needed something material beyond survival they all agreed to buy it used. On the surface this seemed to be a great way to say money and show a bit of restraint when it comes to those frivolous impulse buys that most of us are guilty of making from time to time. But as the painfully eye tearing layers of this economic onion were peeled away quite ridiculous and detrimental concepts and ideas reared their ugly faces to scoff at and horrify the basic principles that our economy and fiscal existence is based on. Of course the recycling-save the planet-global warming-man is destroying earth log of bologna was pulled out for the slicing, instantly making me nauseous. Then the inspiration of their idea was revealed to be the ever cheesy and ridiculous Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping (revbilly.com) who crusades against corporations, mega corporations and pretty much anything with a business licence that supports and encourages consumerism. Uuugggghhh! When the layers were removed the core of their movement, regardless of how slyly they tried to hide it amongst their pleasant laughs, courteous responses, and good intentions, was easily revealed as being anti Wal-Mart. Another big Uuugggghhhhh from my pro consumer choir! What the hell are these anti Wal-Mart drones doing here in America,land of big business and everyone's shot at taking a piece of the capitalist pie. I assume nothing more than making cheesy bologna sandwiches chock full of onions and smeared with an overly healthy dose of bullshit dressing spread. They should all move to Phuket, I do not think there is a single Wal-Mart there and if there once was God's fury obviously recycled it when the tsunami hit!
Recycling can be a real good right wing conservative concept on one level as recently expressed by the "Motor City Madman" Ted Nugent. About a month ago he made one of his frequent stop by's on the Fox News program Hannity and Colmes. The Nuge was promoting his new survival game show on an outdoor living network and the topic of giving back to the Earth what you take from it was injected into the survivalist conversation. He expressed that not only and quite obviously (if you know anything about him beyond the Amboy Dukes and "Cat Scratch Fever") he eats what he kills and then takes it one step further by using every little piece of carcass shrapnel from his kills. Clothes, boots, belts, rugs, and blankets he utilizes the whole damn animal, the way it should be. What struck me as unknown and rather quite interesting is that the good ol' rock and roller also plants huge acreages of trees once a year on his land in Michigan. What a clever way to know that you really do deserve to write a conservative editorial to the local news rag on heavy bonded paper or ,my favorite, to wipe your ass with a liberal one of delusion.
Are the kool-aid drinking tree huggers that masochistically pray for global warming and destruction while public ploying and pressing their delusion of saving the world one Prius at a time while vowing not to park one at a Wal-Mart, really under the impression that they are winning or at least trying their hardest? Toyota may make their pussy pithy paltry little world saver but last I checked they were a bigger capitalist power globally than say , mmmm, the evil enema to small business - Wal-Mart. If the recycler religion of the "Compact" is spreading, as they said on the radio show, to non San Franciscan areas around the country and even reaching as far as Romania does that mean our fiscal freedom is threatened? Do they want no jobs at the sake of no big super stores? Is this just another pro union scam, because if so those are really bothering me as of late (I was a paying UFCW member for five years and I KNOW that was a waste of money). Since there are no Romanian Wal-Marts I would really look forward to hearing their case for joining the Compact. Or maybe they just want some used stitched together hunting scraps by the truly green American conservative Ted Nugent!
It is a mad mad mad mad world and I am never quite sure who is running it, who is saving it, and who is ruining it but I do no right from wrong. John Maynard Keynes is wrong and I think has more to do with this than good ol' Sam or Ted. I disagree with Mr Keynes on many points but I did find one tasty tid bit of phrase that I do admire. His famous last words were, "I wish I had drunk more champagne ..." and I could not agree with him more. Til Wednesday when I talk to you all again, hopefully I will have had my champagne fill by then .... | | | |

The lunch line of intestinal rape and ravage known as the news machine here in America has really reached deplorable lows at the cost of their own integrity and the security of intelligence found, but mostly not found, in the average citizen. Even Fox News Channel, holding high it's reassuring banner of being right and spin free, is only a nozzle short of being an impotent douche bag of chatter box idiots and "news babes" that will forever make me skeptical of admitting that I do watch and listen rather regularly to some of their programming. A perfect and precise example of the malarkey they are throat shoveling us would be that stroke victim CNN refugee Greta Van Susteren. This "dignified and impeccable" news caster has brought us the better part of a year dedicated to Natalie Halloway. Does Greta need another vacation sipping virgin daiquiris, sitting in a chaise lounge "searching" for the apex of the modern day never ending story that is the search for this lost dead girl on foreign soil. I do have sympathy for this girls parents, neighbors, and friends but if I see the lead up to Greta's "honest news from the street" program one more time featuring this miniscule milk carton opera as if it is breaking news I quite honestly will vomit. It has been a year Greta! Will you lay down the bugle and call in the camera men? It is no longer news. It is not even piss poor reality T.V. It has simply become junkie vomit floating in a public bathroom bowl I would rather shit my pants than use.
Speaking of shitting my pants, did anyone catch the little ditty of an anti-patriot dance that was tapped, twisted, and shimmied about by Gerardo Sandoval on Hannity and Colmes (Feb. 15, 2006 - Battleship Brouhaha)? Well, I sat in dismal dismay, as if mentally masticated by Svengali, as I heard this man express that not only should the ship not be in his precious peace-nik hippie harbor of harrowing hedonism but as he also (quite ignorantly and full of false peacock pride) proclaimed that we should not have an armed force of defenders securing our liberty, independence, and sanctity. His pathetically putrid pontification: let the local police protect our shores and borders from diabolical deviants deliciously devouring our framework and palette of western thought and freedom. Simply put, the man is a jackass! But he does not stand alone and it is based from this fact that i am quite afraid of my own role in this melting pot of diversity. Although, I do find serenity in the fact that good old alien head Alan Colmes immediately backed away from any liberal grouping and association with Mr. Sandoval stating that he does not support the war but was adamant and insistent that we DO need a military. See sometimes liberals make sense if even so very very brief the moment of clarity.
Moments of clarity are few and far between in this omnipresent rubbish clock known as twenty four hour news. This week was no exception but rather an amplification and magnification of the lack of clean, clear, and concise reporting that should be the informative juice we all flex our mental muscle with. Did we honestly need nineteen hundred quadrillion hours of poking, prodding, and Pushkin like conspiracy weaved from the cloth of fantasy and stitched together with the thread of democrat denizen delusion in regards to the "Cheney-Quail-Whittington" accident from last weekend? Accident vs. incident. An incident, my fellow Americans, is an occurrence that requires blame. There is cause and effect that is the result of motive and deliberate action. An accident, however, is an occurrence that relinquishes blame due to it's random and unplanned ability to sneak into the sphere of reality at any given moment without invitation and certainly not with an R.S.V.P. It was a friggin' ACCIDENT!!! Can we please drop it from this week out. Why has it pervertedly placed it self as top story of the whole damned week? Did we forget to report about Iran and the good ol' nukes? Was it a slip of the mind's logical importance output meter that the confession of an Iraqi/Saddam crony of the truthful and undeniable existence of W.M.D's in Iraq was placed on page ten (the proverbial back burner of print media) to pose as the red headed step child of the "Cheney attempts to Assassinate friend to warn Scooter Libby" story that danced on the front pages in Atlanta and Savannah? When will modern journalism turn about face and find some priorities. They should learn their lessons from Dan Rather and other blow hard spokes-holes of the make believe and unimportant by reporting news not a series of conspiracy pipe dreams layered between the crack and the hash, or rehash as it would appear here.
If Cheney did do it on purpose may i please propose that the next hunting trip be with Greta Van Susteren and may it please take place on a re- commissioned Iowa, as opposed to a retiring one, as it blows every ungrateful son of a bitch in San Fransisco away into dust, while it breaks the peaceful surface of it's harbors water into frothy furious wake.
My friends and foes I shall echo again on Monday... I will be waiting will you? | | | |

Thursday February 16, 2006
I do not find myself confused anymore, after all of these years of insane socialist non-sense, now that I have accepted my conservative views and right wing personal agenda. I should start this blog by explaining the insanity that was my view point, my precipice of observation for so many years. Future readers of these posts, or self contained truths, will appreciate some background color in order to offer some perspective. I was raised in the bastion and birthplace of the insanity we recognize as liberalism, the land of the Kennedy's, the land of the Kerry's, the land of anything starting with J.F. Born in Conway, New Hampshire and raised until teen years in small towns in the north east of Massachusetts, known as the "North Shore". I was brought up by a liberal mother/baby machine who "came out" along with her second husband, my step father, and made me known to the world of their homosexuality when I was a mere 8 years old. De-masculinized and taught to protect mommy at all costs due to my "wife beating" birth father (who was nothing more than an anti nazi-feminist heel digger), i was forced to take care of two half sisters and a man-eater of a "first wife" (my mother's first wife not mine, she is now on a second) in order to allow my mother the freedom of being who she was and work the jobs she needed to have to support us as opposed to protecting us and raising us without selfishness and self righteousness in a sanctified union of family. At the age of twelve i was uprooted again, as was normally the case every year or so, but this time on a much more grandiose level of her own personal, liberal, and martyred existence. We were moving to Southern California to jump on the welfare gravy train, or so i thought even at that young age, as there were no jobs, family, friends, or housing lined up to support or protect us. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. This all may seem insignificant to the blog title or anything current going on, as it is a history, it is lent to show that I should be the most sympathetic, socialist, wack-job on earth. I am not. People grow up to discover how to unskew their lack of well being, perseverance, existence, and moral (as well as ethical) fiber of brainwashing as upbringing in order to clothe themselves in who they have become. I found conservatism. At first I should have, would have, been a libertarian as my lifestyle and up bringing would not release me to a true right wing movement. I do admit I still hold onto some of those "freedom" views. I have disowned the left wing junkie monkeys that are known as my family and now prepare to speak to all of you in further tri-weekly postings on Friday, Monday, and Wednesday nights from this magnificent puplit 'o' blogging. I should however offer a bit more than just past and offer where I stand on ALL of the major issues and tastes of existence. I am pro life unless there is rape or molestation involved I am pro patriot I am pro gun ownership and 2nd amendment I am against federal income tax, but honestly know we will never rid ourselves of state income tax I am pro increased sales tax I think suicide, drugs and religion should all be free and legal but held with consequences when affecting others cruelly or violently (i.e. drunk driving, torching of churches, parental- spouse disputes over life support ... I am against all of these i.e.'s what one does in their own house is their business no one else's) I am pro freedom and armed forces as well as defense I am anti-world police unless it is effecting us i.e. 9/11 I am pro global economy but with our interests in our back pocket held securely as it is with every other country in the global community I do NOT believe in global warming and find it to be a giant pile of horse puckey. I accept and recognize gay couples and homosexual union but understand the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman I am all for gay parents adopting children since not enough straight couples are stepping up to the bat to help out with the baby machines that ruin our country with their irresponsibility MY property is mine and you better come with guns if you think you are going to take it away from me for any reason under public domain - even a freeway or church - my land is my land damn it! I am so pro capital punishment that I think it should be televised so all the fence sitters will fall off and make a friggin' choice in order to end the debate once and for all I do NOT believe in manslaughter laws as I will always know in my mind, heart and soul that their is truly a difference between an incident and an accident - look up the damn words and you tell me PRO prostitution monitored by state agency Anti welfare Anti big government Pro people - doing what people do and leaving each other alone to do it (if you want to argue about your children I will argue back - take part in and care of your children's lives and then fight with me about what people do in their bedrooms or living rooms amongst consensual adults; this includes T.V., radio, or internet - you don't like it turn it off and make sure your kids do not see it; if you do not have the time or the energy you should have never of had children and should be fixed rendering you unable to be able to reproduce - thank you Bob Barker - spay and neuter non-qualified and ignorant parents today! - I did not make your damn kid, do not ask my responsible ass to pay for your creation mistake!) I AM pro family I am anti politician salary - even the president - consider it a friggin' honor and do it to serve the country that protects you and offers you up a taste of the freedoms that you rape from the pockets of the people you are supposedly representing I am pro mandatory civilian participation in the military in some form regardless of sex and sexuality - if you are already a mom at 18 (shame on you) but you are exempted reluctantly This is all in my damn world. The world I know other people can and could conceive which is what has brought us to this forum today. I am no ones keeper and am here to save no one. I want to be heard and have the right even I am not agreed with. I will continue to speak here and hopefully people will salivate for the next real rant. Now that you have got to know me ... | | | |
