Well, for one thing, not get too much exposure, or you end up “accidentally” drowning in your hot tub, like Matthew Simons.
For another, expect to have no privacy and complete Orwellian Oversight – **with the added bonus** – of paying MORE for your intellectual property to be mined. The corporations now are directly writing laws and regulations.
Lastly, get thrown under the bus by the Obama Administration for daring to espouse views that might benefit people rather than corporations.
Overall? Pretty much get marginalized as high-on-drugs, dirty-fucking-hippies for not praising the Obama Golden Calf giving us our golden shower, and basking with joy in said piss as red white and blue manna from the our Corporate Reality Creators, and believing all is at it should be.
As Sally Panic says: GAME ON

Lets roll…………… because the Professional Left is not buying your shit anymore.

Up is down, black is white, and you cannot a believe a word you hear! Unless, that is, you hear it HERE!
The Oil is all GONE! Corexit is candy! The leak is stopped! Shall we believe the official United States of Petroleum Reports????
Or maybe the leak we should be talking about is the horrifying WikiLeaks, because their leaks about all the unnecessary civilian bloodshed may be causing unnecessary civilian bloodshed??? Whiskey Tango Censored Foxtrot!
Judge Walker knows Constitutional Law, as proven by his ruling on Prop 8… but we are told not to believe him, cuz he is teh gayz! Is that the best they’ve got????
We are finally leaving Iraq!!! Shall we celebrate the shiny new “advisory brigades” that replace the “combat brigades” without all that messy actual changing or leaving: The exact same people that were the latter have become the former! Go-bama! No, I mean it. GO! Leave!!!
In the rest of the Middle East, we get to examine the shell game of whodunit/blame game as Israel ramps up war with Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Egypt, those nomady shepherd people and Martinique!! Ok, Martinique just might not be part of the blame game…yet.
War is Peace, Free Market Capitalism Loves you, Trust the Military and Marriage is Freedom!

Prop 8, Feminism, And the Law of Unequaldynamics.
Unequaldynamics: (noun, Dianism* )
(see disambiguation: white people suck)1. The process by which in a closed system, one group of humans will drain all the power and assets unto themselves, leaving the majority of people destitute and utterly void of self-determination.
2. The system pertaining to a class of ruling elites who have removed all true freedom from its conquered people, while maintaining an illusion of said freedoms.
3. The inverted pyramid model by which all empires fail.
*Disclaimer: Yes, I toyed with the idea of using the pronoun “In” rather than “Un” but inequality suggested a more random bias, while unequality an intentional one. Sue me. I reserve the right to be the last word on my made-up words.
So. Prop 8 was overturned. In a totally unrelated story, a leading feminist blames feminism for messing up the kids.
I have to look around, and ask, “Bigger picture, anyone? ANYONE?”
So the Weirding Woman must speak.

The Party of “No,” The Election Cycle, and Collateral Damage
One has to wonder if the extremism of the Repubagger Party will backfire. What heartless beings in the party of 9/11, 9/11, 9/11 whose flag waving, Americana worshiping, patriotic fervor can support a party that says “No” to helping the first responders dying from rescue efforts on their Holiest of Days?
It was to paid for by closing loopholes on FOREIGN businesses so that they had to pay income tax. Republicans touted it as a tax increase.
Some 15,000 people have been treated already for World Trade Center dust related illnesses. Cancer. Respiratory. Acid Reflux. Asthema. PTSD. Who would deny these?
The party of “No.”
Reams have already been written about this; everyone (I presume) has seen the viralized video of Anthony Weiner’s righteous evisceration of the people who blocked this. Sponsors of the Bill who flip-flopped on the bill solely for the purpose of denying a Democratic victory of any sort. Anything that would make Obama’s administration and the Democratic majority look effective.
This failure is an absolutely disgusting example of how valueless actual Americans are to the hollow rhetoric of patriotism. We should be outraged.
Who would do such a thing? I’ll tell you.

Tonight we will continue our discussion from last week on the tool of Racism, a very real and rising tool. We will also speak to the ridiculous counter-racism claims, and paranoid accusations that always seem to stop truth being told.
They say all war is Class War, and the numbers certainly belie that domestically… but tonight we will also be forging ahead to the larger Foreign Policy – and clarify just how our enemies are created: Fear and “isms” to one end: Make colonies of those who do not serve Western Interests.
Of course, its not all gloom and doom, there are plenty of idiots to satire in this weeks headlines… and you know us. So we shall!

Capitalism FAIL: Killing YOU By The Numbers.
Hat tip to Gottlieb who sent me the link to Business Insider’s “22 Statistics That Prove The Middle Class Is Being Systematically Wiped Out Of Existence In America”
You should view the whole slide show. However, I will provide the statistics here, with few enough of the images to give you a taste. Those of you who know me, know I am the Queen of “You say Socialist like its a Bad Thing,” a Commie-Pinko Motherfuckress.
Here is proof fucking POSITIVE of why I am correct, and why I am fighting to wake people against the propaganda that keeps them perpetually supportive of a system whose main goal is to rape them blind and make them like it.
Their data is in bold, my commentary follows in italic, just to be clear about who is saying what.
– 83 percent of all U.S. stocks are in the hands of 1 percent of the people.
So, you fuckwits, do you really still hang on to the dream that you too can be rich if you only get your lucky break in the market? This isn’t “hard-wurkin-merricuns” doing well. These are professional players who created and regulate the system to keep theirs theirs and take more of yours by any trickery they can create.

On Wildness Lost
He was the most beautiful and arrogant being I have ever met. Not arrogant in the nouveau rich, loud and flashy way, but one born of the quiet confidence of real power. He would, with a mere look, let you know every command was merely a suggestion, and whether he would deign to consider it.
Now, in these his waning days, he is becoming a house pet. In some ways I love that he is coming to me for comfort, vying for endless attention. In others, I am almost embarrassed for him. My wolf is becoming dog, and he is dying.
When this amazing being, the last of my pack dies, I feel like a part of my soul will be ever destroyed. I feel my own wildness being drawn away with his. I feel like a dog, too, always doing what I should be doing, instead of exactly what I want to. You see, I never tried to tame my wolves, nor redefine them in some image. The rules were few. The kitchen is mine. Don’t shit in my house. Anyone who comes through my door is pack. Yet, in a room full of eyes, his were often the only ones that saw me, got me. I could convey more with a flick of my eyes to him than a thousand words to a dog… or a human for that matter. They never lived with me because they had to, they chose me, chose to and never let you forget it. Especially Roo – he was no hybrid like my others- he is 100% wolf.

Wild Wild Left Radio #73 Hey Whitey! Be Afraid! (Racism in America)

Irony might just be a couple of white Liberals talking about Racism in America… but they say the first step is acknowledging you HAVE a problem. This week was a SIREN CALL for racists.
The Southern Strategy may have evolved from the “N-word” for many decades, but it has devolved even further now. The Neo-con strategy is to use the “tea party” to ramp up the most ugly, heinous and vicious “negrophobia” they can, as well as “latinophobia,” “homophobia” “islamophobia”… you name it. It keeps people licking the boots of their masters to keep us “safe” from “those people.”
This strategy of fear, that culminated in the Bush-era success of setting the masses against their own security, rights and privacy in our own homeland is now being ramped up to attack the only threat to it. They do not fear Latin America, they fear the IDEA of a People’s run Government that does not set the interests of the Elites first.
It all bases back to White European Entitlement – and the time to kill that Original Sin, to end that hideous idea, both here and abroad is now.
Come bear witness to our heresy. No one is Rich and Ruler by divine right – they are that way through theft, rape and abuse of the people from who they stole it.

Refudiation Nation
Sometimes you just have to say, “You can’t make this shit up.”
Sometimes, alas, we do have to make this shit up. I know, Sarah, I get it. I do it so often, my real life friends coined yet another word for it, “Dianisms.” No, I am not making that part up.
I love making up words. I love making up plausible explanations to questions, too, just to see if they will fly. The more dead-pan the better. I love that moment when I can no longer contain the smile lines from the corners of my eyes, and hear, “Wait. Is that true or is that a Dianism?” or “Is that really a word?”
re fute ree fyoot Verb
1. Prove (a statement or theory) to be wrong or false; disprove.
2. Prove that (someone) is wrong.re pu di ate ri pyoo dee aat Verb
1. Refuse to accept or be associated with.
2. Deny the truth or validity of.
I’d like to take a moment here and defend Sarah Palin. I mean, peaceful Muslims should “refudiate” the subject of the building of a Mosque several blocks away from Ground Zero. Seriously.

Myszka, Mishka
He was still not sure if word was little mouse, or little bear. Was it mish-ka or mee-shka… sometimes it sounded like a hybrid between the two. He smiled to himself. He had been both. The nickname, in either form had followed him since birth, given by his Bobczi, and God knew his Polish grandmother had a sense of humor that was sly and innocent at the same time. He liked to think now, that she intuited the duality of his nature, even then. After telling the story once to some of the town’s children, his name became permanently “Mouse.” Kids were forever begging Uncle Mouse to regale them with the many tales he knew by heart, both fiction and from his long life. He was equally certain, that since that City Council meeting one day, as many adults called him “The Bear” privately. He had never walked back then, now he walked everywhere. The trick knee that had given him problems in that other lifetime was only so much background noise now. Either it had become weary of complaining unheard or actually become stronger by demand. The pulverized dust off this well-worn trail felt like pillows beneath his bare feet, then more firm but still silky as he stepped off it to the less traveled path. He avoided the man-made aquifer like the plague, climbing instead toward old well nestled into the morning shadows of an abandoned mine from yet another age. There were filters still to be had, that would render the lake water drinkable, but since the grid shut down there could be things more dangerous than mere E.Coli and fecal’s in it. Some of the factories just loosened their wastes, with the release of a person who gasped their last death rattle; other sources just slowly leached their death, like the a wound that refused to stop draining. People were getting sick, dying, and you just couldn’t convince them that it was the water. Who knows what came from further up the Pacific chain? Besides, he liked the cooler greener air above the valley. There, in the shadows of the redwoods, he would have a chance to negotiate more with Crystal, the unofficial leader of the mountain village nearby. Unlike the arm twisting, duplicitous, make or break dealings of his business past, where deals were brokered or broken with lightening speed, things took time now. They had been talking for months about this subject. |

Wild Wild Left Radio #71 An Interview with Joe Bageant
July 2nd at 6PM Eastern Time, WWL Radio!!!!!

Hear the Unreported & Under Reported Headlines stories you should be paying attention to, from US Politics, to the farthest reaches of the Earth by the WWL coalition of subversion: undermining the PTB by speaking Truth to Power!!!!
There is no other possible way to kick off a weekend of self-congratulatory patriotic fervor, rife with layers of mass over-consumption and a creamy drunken frosting, than to be given the honor of interviewing JOE BAGEANT to discuss his latest article, “Live from Planet Norte ~ America’s totalitarian democracy and the politics of plunder, or, life is a titty tuck and a Dodge truck”
This man GETS it. America has been at war since its very inception, a long and brutal war which most people choose not to see. Not only have we blinded ourselves to it, but we have become actively complicit in the fact we are losing it… Its a Class War, people!!! Whew… now these are the types of fireworks I can truly sink my teeth into!
Joe is the author of “Deer Hunting with Jesus: Dispatches from America’s Class War.” His newest book, “Rainbow Pie: A Redneck Memoir,” deals with America’s permanent white underclass, and how it was intentionally created. To be released in September in Australia and October in the United Kingdom. Rainbow Pie is available for preorder from Amazon-UK and Amazon-Canada.
