I am sitting here watching Chris Matthews and his guests consider Palin possibilities.  They are talking about her book and her inability to take responsibility but her ability to get people to support her.  They spoke on her comment to Couric about being able to see Russia from Alaska, therefore being able to understand foreign policy with Russia and I swear I can’t tell if they are serious or not.  They are saying she is short on smarts and ability, but through all of this she IS a contender for president.  And it really seems like they are trying to be serious.

What is this?  I don’t have to go into her history as a character on the scene since her nomination for vice president, but how can you devote a segment of your show to bolster/ponder/consider this , I’m sorry, polarizing nitwit, as a real contender for president?

Something is wrong.  With Chris Matthews.  He offers that Palin impresses him even though her thoughts aren’t clear.  How can you try to propel this woman?  Chris better get out of town with this nonsense.

Why on earth does this woman not have to earn it?  Why are they giving her this?  Because she can move a crowd?  Because she can form a crowd?  The media has the ability to make or break or pass altogether.  And they are opting to give her handicap ponits?  This lady is Carrie Prejean on steroids.  Orly Taitz on a mild sedative, but not presidential,  Not smart.  Not a leader.  She quit her job.  She whines.  She attacks.  She polarizes.  She is currently at war with her daughter’s baby father, a mere teen, if twenty.  She believes there are 2 Americas and that it is her job to make the America she sides with win.

I am baffled by Chris’ segment on her.  I am not going to go backward from a sensible leader to insanity.  

In short, I want an apology from Chris from this segment of his show, or I want Chris to admit he’s a troublemaker.

They’re trying to cover up the cover up.

Bury it under many layers of words.  

How absurd.

You’d have to bury a whole world of people too

before you push that bill through.

This thing in Afghanistan

Why are we there again?

To catch Osama bin Laden

But hell he’s all over the globe

(and even sometimes on TV)

But where the hell can he be?

He’s one bad lone motherfucker

against all this sophisticated machinery

one little man can’t be found?

Before he’s found, we’ll burn the whole world down.

Forget climate claims and other strange things.

Speaking of, why are we celebrating that China ‘made’ it snow?

I sure as hell don’t know.

But back to Afghanistan

has become back to Iraq

As well.  Also.  Therefore.

What is it that we’re fighting for?

I’m already leaving this war behind in my mind.

The powers fucked up.

America’s run amuck and

is in a rut,

Trying to remember the 9/11 Alamo

And the status quo

Not wanting to let go

Of yesterday

When it’s already tomorrow.

Imagine a bloodless coup to restore and defend the Constitution through an interim administration that would do the serious business of governing and defending the nation. Skilled, military-trained, nation-builders would replace accountability-challenged, radical-left commissars. Having bonded with his twin teleprompters, the president would be detailed for ceremonial speech-making.

Military intervention is what Obama’s exponentially accelerating agenda for “fundamental change” toward a Marxist state is inviting upon America. A coup is not an ideal option, but Obama’s radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible.

Unthinkable? Then think up an alternative, non-violent solution to the Obama problem. Just don’t shrug and say, “We can always worry about that later.”

In the 2008 election, that was the wistful, self-indulgent, indifferent reliance on abnegation of personal responsibility that has sunk the nation into this morass.

First the Petraeus incident.  Now the words down on paper.  Wishful thinking?  

I found this gem on TPM.

While the president is uncovering entrenched American problems, and forcing them to the light of day, I guess hoping the perpetrators would at least do a better job if put on blast, because Lord knows, he can’t get the congress to back him on much of anything, being as they are pretty much entrenched too, perhaps the real powers are seriously mulling this alternative in some backroom somewhere.

They do it in other countries.  Now the Corporate forces are ready to use our own militia right here on our own soil.  Incredible!  

I hear on the newses today, Sarah Palin, author of An American Rogue or something like that, and Dick Cheney’s daughter are two rising stars on the right.  And there will go the country.

John L. Perry, a prize-winning newspaper editor and writer who served on White House staffs of two presidents, is a regular columnist for Newsmax.com.

The Health Care reform issue, which is more about Health insurance reform, because no one really seems too upset with the quality of healthcare, because it is offered and a structure and hospitals and doctors and nurses are in place.  We may need more of each but the structure and service are in place.

Most peoples’ argument is insurance coverage and costs to insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies.  I can say at least pharmaceutical companies have a product, but the health insurance industry?  What the fuck is their product?  They are the middle men and gatekeepers that do in fact come between the doctor and patient.  This industry of organized men and theories, buys buildings and equipment and hire people, all to make the top of its pyramid rich.  Their product is organizing physiological data on the human body, determining what care is necessary to fix any disturbances in the physiology, based on statistical data of similar cases of previous symptoms and cures to a bodily malfunction witnessed in the medical history of other human beings  .  They often discard the learned, trained doctor’s recommendations if need be, to make what they think is right and proper for a body ‘fix’, the norm, and at minimal cost.  This whole business model makes me think of a Steven Covey quote, “You can be efficient with things, but you have to be effective with people.”  To these Insurance honchos, people have become things.

Anyway, when I started writing this, I was going to say how this whole public insurance reform is playing out for our eyes to see, makes me think of slavery.  Slaveholders, were upset and in an uproar, at the very idea that this form of very cheap labor would be taken away from them.  Who would do the work, at minimal cost?  They were entrenched in this slavery idea.  They would fight a civil war if you took this away from them, and they did.  

Slaves who rebelled would be whipped publicly for all the other slaves and free people to see, so they would be afraid to mess with the status quo themselves.  These public beatings were to show that this is what happens when you mess with the power structure.  Some of the overseers of these public beatings, whether they agreed in heart or not, oversaw them anyway.  Often the overseers had other slaves perform the beatings, though their hearts may have cried out against it.  But, at the end of the day, it was their job, for which they got paid, or were forced to do for fear of the same happening to them, and why should they have to suffer, when the sufferer was already chosen?  They would just do their job, because that is just how it is in the world they live in.

Most Republicans just do their jobs.   Most politicians, for that matter.  Whether they have hearts or not that tell them they should do otherwise, they instead do their jobs, for fear of the power structure.  Why should their livelihood and lifestyle be taken away from them when the sufferer has already been chosen?  The Power does not want the health insurance industry messed with.  What would replace this easy money?  Bodies are machines dammit, and if they can’t afford to be serviced as the industry has decided they should be, then, so be it.  More are being born every day, it won’t hurt our bottom line one bit.  Who is a doctor to use his knowledge, to decide against what the power mandates?  This has nothing to do with humanity.  A body is machinery.

So, now health insurance reform is on display for all to see and learn what will happen if you try to fight against the power structure.  Health reform is the bad guy.  The slave who needs to be punished publicly, with all the accoutrements of my thoughts on slavery in the 2nd to the last paragraph above.

Disclaimer:  I am assuming that people have hearts.  If I have made this assumption incorrectly, the reader may not understand what I am talking about.

Is reforming the healthcare system for the better, really a cause worth dying for? Does it make sense that normal humans show up at townhall meetings to knowingly confront mobs of abnormal people who may have guns and violence in mind if you let them work themselves up into a frenzy?

It would be an absolute shame to have one death occur in relation to passing a healthcare reform bill, that at best offers a government program alternative like medicare or medicaid.  

I am struck by the middle aged mobsters, who in some instances themselves, say they have medicaid or medicare, yet can’t grasp that this bill is only offering all Americans this sort of alternative, at its absolute best, when implemented.  

Why is ‘fighting to the death’ to stop healthcare from being reformed, even something that ‘everyday’ people would be willing to do?  It doesn’t even seem like a way for a normal person to handle this good intentioned effort.  I wouldn’t be caught for safety of my life at one of these events.  I don’t find them productive from what I’ve seen on TV. And furthermore, I understand the need for reform.  I also understand what the president and willing congress members are trying to do.

These people act like they can’t keep the insurance policy, company and coverage they have, if they want to.  Just knowing this, is enough for a normal person not to go off the deep end and want to fight to the death.  Sure it’s going to cost money to implement, but what do they really care?  Will they really feel the cost pinch?  I mean really, will they feel this cost pinch? The people we are seeing on the TV screens?

They are crazed, and get more and more worked up with each passing day.

My solution for the president and congress, is to get this freaking bill, written, passed, and move on from this, because for those of us who support the idea of reform, and have been intelligently comprehending the meat of the bill as it changes everyday, we’re probably not going to be satisfied with it either.  Personally, I don’t think the bill is going to be the best it can be.

And I’m losing my ability to care about them.

Politics is stuck on stupid.  Stupid representatives like Michelle Bachmann continually make headlines like some sort of comic relief.  She is not a serious politician to me.  Sanford wants to take on biblical proportions as a character.  Baucus wants to fight the good fight for corporate lobbyists and healthcare and before that he was the friend of corporate globalists.  Same thing to me.  He’s not for the everyday people.  Specter wants to keep his cushy senate job so he changes parties (both are essentially the same) , as does Cantor and Boehner and Graham. The Alaskan governor wants to stay in the spotlight.  People are really talking like she has a chance.  At the presidency in the future.  Just plain stupid.  

Good Evening everyone who is still up.  I just wanted to take this opportunity to say what I want for our world.  On this Memorial day wwekeend, after too much wine, I find the world at the forefront of my mind.  There is a lot of chaos .  There is a a lot of crime.  But what I want is sensibleness exercised.  I want people to realize that you don’t do wrong because others do.  You don’t fight fire with fire. You have to give up and let go of the things that are wrong.  You have to forgive,  You have to move forward.

For everyone please move forward.
