No Substance and All Flash

Dear Congress: Since you refuse to sequester yourselves, even to the point of your unwillingness to wait at the airport, what is your final solution? Love, Tiny Cog
Dear Tiny Cog: Good question. Our solution is the same as it always is, to start maiming and murdering somebody somewhere, simply to get the spotlight off our complete failure to serve and protect and use your money wisely. We will make up stuff as usual, and do a couple of magic tricks. Now, close your eyes . . . Love, Congress

The corrupters deliver bags of cash
And sequester the hungry, giving oldsters a rash
Where are Miranda's rights
Why create unnecessary blights
When did the US become no substance & all flash?

And Aren't They Nice?

When you have a truckload of toxic waste from fracking and nobody will let you dump it, then what?  It is never toxic around politicians in Washington DC or anyone on K Street. When an oil pipeline breaks and leaks and kills life because it always does, then what? It never leaks or kills life in Washington DC or on K Street. Did the banksters steal your house, or maybe your pension? Any politician who voted for the sequester will welcome you with open arms and will let you spend your recovery at their house. Yes, they still want US to ignore their campaign hype and vote for someone else, and aren't they nice?

Take-Offs and Landings

Homemade shoulder-mounted potato launchers hurt people. Guns don't hurt people. Therefore, potatoes will be banned from all public spaces unless they are mashed. Anyways, don't their eyes give you the creeps? Another ban announcement: Humans and animals will be banned from creating fertilizer. Thank you for your cooperation. You will be monitored for quality control purposes only.

From MayoRahM's mouth to our ears: Bribes do not mean jack sh*t to me. I like them. I take them. I put them in my pocket. Then I do exactly what the wealthy takers tell me to do. Witness me close public schools for the takers' cause, but not for bribes. When they do it, we don't like to call them bribes. Like I said, I accept bribes, but they don't mean jack sh*t to me.

Thank the god of greed that the rich will no longer have to worry quite so much about their own safety during take-offs and landings.

What's Our Line?

JAG you are, but who are the rest of US? Does Lindsey Graham want to designate Donald Adair, owner of Adair Grain in Texas, as an enemy combatant or a terrorist?

What's our line? Our tails were docked and our dewclaws were removed and we release most of our hot air in Washington DC,
all great requirements for repeatedly accepting bribes.
What's our line?

When the War on Terra was renamed COO - Contingency Overseas Operations - and one on one torture for dollars was enhanced into drone torture for dollars, D.C. pols are pretty sure the whole mess is the fault of labor unions, teachers unions, and the fact that minimum wage earners' desire to eat 3 meals a day is a burden on the wealthiest takers.

Gosh, you'll see that not one of those e-mails is from me, and living in the past is the centerpiece of my existence. 9/11, 9/11, 9/11. Otherwise, what do I have? My Homeland Security invention?

Okay, thank you and we will.

It is said that Tamerlan Tsarnaev changed a couple of years ago. Was he schizophrenic (symptoms show up between 16 and 25 yrs) ?  Had he been using street drugs to self-medicate? When he went to visit his father in Russia, did he do a great deal of sleeping because he had left his drugs in America and he was drying out? Did Tamerlan Tsarnaev radicalize himself with his own brain, and then radicalize his brother? And now most importantly, how does the FBI establish rapport with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, an angry fearful teenager who said he has no American friends because he does not understand them?

Although American global capitalism is soul-crushing, for some reason, it is not as fulfilling as immigrants think it will be.

Life is a circle.

When you want advice on insecurity and creating chaos, who you gonna call, some old toast buster who is sly but not so brainy, somebody like Mr. Haney? That's your business. When you abuse because it is easy and profitable, but you don't want your victims telling the truth in public or showing the strength of their group to the world and besides, abusers hate for their victims to have social contact, and nice weather is just about here and you still want to abuse, are you gonna call that same expendable clown?

Will Continue

This quote from Alistair Stevenson, Cross Country coach at U of Mobile, and a Boston Marathon runner: "At the starting line this morning, they had bomb sniffing dogs and the bomb squad out there. They kept announcing to runners not to be alarmed, that they were running a training exercise." Coach Stevenson had never seen that at other events.

The Real Golden Key

"Incident"

Who rubbed brown stuff on his facey
Vamping and round-heeled
While camping in the outfield
Stacey got all racey with yards of his own lacey.

Jeri and Regina put themselves waaay up a tree
Stealing and lying, workin' it for you and for me
Blinging up their shark fins
And loving their own deadly sins
Making ourselves proud is the real golden key.

Not Our Fault

What is the story on the so-called "We the People" page?

It seems to be some kind of polling site. Perhaps it is compiling a list of people who are still curious. It certainly is not what it says it is.

Well, what is the story on politicians and gun regulations?

So far, it is the same old story, and very similar to the "We the People" page. When the People get too close to satisfaction, the rules are changed. We are very sorry the pols do not read newspapers and do not listen to voters in their districts. We are very sorry they constantly change the rules. And we are very sorry they appear to be idiots who take bribes against US. But guess what. All of that is not our fault.

Thomas Paine

The first 5 sentences from Thomas Paine's Common Sense, a pamphlet published on January 9, 1776:

"Some writers have so confounded society with government as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher.
   Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer."

Something Noxious

Amisha Patel, executive director of Grassroots Collaborative, wrote a piece in the Chicago Sun-Times. Here is one paragraph:
"Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Public Schools board members want us to believe that they must close schools to save money, but that is simply not true. They are choosing to close schools while sending millions of dollars to Wall Street."
