you've got to be kidding me 

HPV and Men: Should Boys Be Vaccinated Against the STD?

Those fear-mongering money grubbing fucked ass bastards.

Well slap me silly and call me Sally, it says so right here.

And Farrah, who has never called me once even after all the hours I spent holding her poster with one hand. . .

disillusioned 




Cripes man, ain't that a kick in the teeth or so the old song goes.

Right fucking here, in my much beloved hometown. Although at present I am sometimes overheard to malign it and its frightening transformation, it's still my fucking home.

Until now, my gripes have been primarily about the physical transformation as the leaders of our fair city endeavor to make us grow up and become a real city. I lack the profanity to properly express my anger and anguish at the creeping cancerous growth of the vast homogenizing franchised soul-crushing sameness of post-suburban living.

Until now I could at least still entertain the illusion that although the place has undergone dramatic physical change over the two plus decades of my being here, the people, like the song, remained the same.

I could still imagine that most of the populace, yes the people, both life blood and beating heart to the city, were well, just like the kids. They were alright.

I fear I have been sadly mistaken.

Sigh. . .

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away;
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.
You better watch out,
There may be dogs about
Ive looked over Jordan, and I have seen
Things are not what they seem.

What do you get for pretending the dangers not real.
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel.
What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes.
Now things are really what they seem.
No, this is no bad dream.

chilling 

Last night Olbermann sliced up dubya for his antics regarding this advertisement.

I can live with that. By this time in the course of human events one expects such rantings from an imperial president lashing out like a petulant toddler at the growing majority of a besieging populace.

But this, this strikes me as something far more sinister:

Senate Approves Resolution Denouncing MoveOn.org Ad
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 — The Senate approved a resolution on Thursday denouncing the liberal antiwar group MoveOn.org over an advertisement that questioned the credibility of Gen. David H. Petraeus, the American commander in Iraq.
Bastards.

They swore a mother fucking oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; and then they got the balls to pull this kind of crap.

Arrogant swine.

My first thought was perhaps those crazy mofos had finally flipped out and forgotten what all this means:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Wha'wazat?

The Senate of the United States of America officially broke the first of our great nation's secular Ten Commandments, which do a bait and switch on the original and instead quite clearly puts limits on the behavior of God, er um ah, government.

One might argue on their behalf that they did no such thing. They passed no actual law. They passed only a resolution as an amendment to House military appropriations bill.

It was only the flash of an angry stare in the icy eyes of a sadistic schoolmaster who went home each night to be thrashed by a fat and psychopathic wife within inches of his life.

Criminy man, are we ever being set up for one hell of a screw job.

They passed no law, it is only a slight rebuke, a mild scolding.

For now. . .

For you see, like a frog in a pot, this is how it all begins.

Or possibly continues. The difference lies in your perspective. Either way, grab your ankles and hold on tight cuz we the people are in for one helluva screw job.

To clarify:

The United States Senate passed on official government resolution (a decree from those we elected to serve us and not the other way around motherfucker) criticizing and chastising a group of citizens for expressing their freedom of speech via the press while peaceably assembled in order to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The government has formally denounced, dare I say it, scapegoated a group of its people. And sadly, the beat down has begun.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Do ya get it?

Do ya?

I freakin' hope so.

Otherwise it's time ta start grabbin' the vasoline whil'ya still can.
