Representative Dunahoo

It speaks but who really wrote this editorial?

So ... Georgia's values are completely out of step with the rest of the country and most of the world.

And, that's a damn good thing says one of the Republican idiots representing Hall County in the State Legislature.

Yup. We need two Confederate holidays a year. Three more statues to Lee, Jackson, and Davis carved into the back side of Stone Mountain. We must support Judge Roy Moore the pedophile before a Democrat destroys God! We must not let poverty become a metric for providing healthcare because the poor should just die! And, we've added five Commandments to the Ten proposed by Moses. [The ones by Moses were just suggestions] We have assault rifles in elementary schools locked in cabinets because our active shooter policy remains Shelter in Place but the Gun Store needed sales. We have designed housing codes which outlaw Tiny Houses because we already have trailers.

So when will the rest of the country catch up to us and draft a Religious Liberty Law?

I rate him a 9.5 on the GOP scale of Tool.

The Republican Myth Promoting Corporate Leaders as Satisfactory Presidents.

Using only my personal observations of the individuals winning through the business based selection process for ultimate leadership of large international corporations, no one meets the leadership needs of a large nation.

A nation or government exists for the long term with infinite goals based on vastly variable perceptions and realities. In our case, we have 50 states, four or more time zones, an unknown number of dialects, and living conditions from homeless urban to selfish, internationally rich.

A corporation, serves itself, often the self gets described as 'stock holders.' Few accredit executive leadership as de facto ownership. That ownership, given stock options and bonus and perks, demands the label, Ownership.

And, the ascent to the Ownership leader position kills off internal competition. Much like the palace intrigues of Royal 'cousins' and would be heirs to thrones. In that process, some see politics. But, a failed presidential candidate like John McCain remains a post election power. No corporate winner would allow that.

Corporate leadership assumes short term tenures forcing short term goals.

No country, founded on rejection of unrepresentative government, should consider any corporate leader, as I have described them, as a viable candidate for control of the world's future.

Noose tightens on Putin and Republicans

Troubled? Troubled!?

A CEO of a family corporation worth billions, makes a hundred grand doing a reality TV show based on the tag line, "You're fired."

The Republicans nominate that CEO and elects him President of the United States. And, when that CEO acts like the tyrant in a Hollywood movie about all that can go wrong in a Banana Republic, all you have to say,

"I feel a little troubled by the second firing of a top federal law enforcement officer involved in the investigation of Russian election interference and international Republican collusion to seize our government."

Read the quote about being troubled while watching Democracy being beaten to death.

Six Reasons Comey might have been fired.

My Six Reasons Comey was fired.

1. Under oath, Comey admitted to be nauseated by Republicans in the White House.
2. Insecure old fart in the White House has to sleep in his New Jersey doghouse because his Russian bride said, 'No way, Jose!'
3. Presidents can't fire comedians on Saturday Night Live.
4. There's a secret war in Cambodia where we are illegally fighting Godless Communists.
5. There were no alien ships or bodies in Area 51.
6. Putin said, "Kim Jong Un told me, you have a little dick and can't get it up without Science. And, Comey told me it was true!"

Hey, You! Asshole ...

I am semi-retired meaning I work part-time at a menial job. It keeps me off the couch and out of the house. Both very good things as we age. My pain levels are down. I sleep better. But, my little delivery job puts me in direct contact with the public.

Yesterday, a mechanic showed me his greasy black hands. "Guess who I am?," he said. "Obama!" was his punch line. For those not well schooled in White Southern Speak, Obama means: That fucking nigger in my White House.

Yeah, it does.

As required by my employer, I did my job functions and went on to the ne"xt delivery stop. It didn't get any better.

At the tire shop, the owner was being engaged by a outside Salesperson pushing this weeks money saving special. Something was said about anyone with a brain would buy the product. That moved into only Planned Parenthood can sell brains and make money.

So I lost control of self censorship.

"Hey."

Followed by my warmest personal smile.

"In 2010, I ran for public office and Planned Parenthood endorsed me as a candidate. I remain proud of that endorsement as Planned Parenthood does a lot more good for women and family than any other organization in the United States. It's not just an abortion mill as some would have us believe."

I didn't stop. Couldn't.

"How do you think doctors learn how to perform abortions? Medical schools. Every student in med school goes through an Ob/gyn rotation. Ob/gyn doctors do abortions in hospitals. Nearly every doctor will perform an abortion as a part of their med school training."

(Here's are some sources to back that up. UCSF Medical Center, Time magazine, ...

"So pretty much ... every practicing doctor and every existing hospital has performed an abortion."

Where did that get me? It got this response:

"Yeah, but did they force the woman to have an abortion even when she didn't want one?"

I held my tongue as that is the proper response to assholes with no brains.

"You will someday regret not doing a little evil to accomplish a greater good."

Racists promote fake video of Michael Brown beating elderly man

Post by Bob Kitsemetry.

Another fake out using video.

The above video was taken in Texas. It allegedly show Michael Brown beating an elderly man. The video shows a horror too common in our society. Not just a camera operator taking part in a crime, but a planned beating and robbery of a helpless man by a bunch of young men.

But, it isn't Michael Brown. And, the fair skinned caption writer got 13,000,000 people to watch it. That's 13 million people who did not know who was in the video and assumed it was Michael Brown of Ferguson.

Do young black men look so much alike that white people can be fooled by this crap? Mike Brown was 300 pounds and 6 foot four inches tall. The tallest person in the video is the victim, an elderly man. All the muggers appear to of average size. There's no giant in the group.

It was a caption created by a racist for a racist audience.

Break your preconceptions or live with your invisible chains.

Snopes debunks it.

Another fake video on the internet created by Republicans

Post by Venkata Ramesh Gangaraju.

It's a horrible scene but it's not as described. It's a funeral in 2012 hit by a suicide bomber. If you watch the entire video, the body, still wrapped in white linen, lays on the ground. Had a bomb on the body been detonated, there would be no body. Had it been an spontaneous event immediately after a shooting, why is there a camera man focused not on the body but on the bomb? Yes, the camera and camera man are focused on the bomb before it explodes. Most likely we are hearing the camera man chanting to Allah after the bombing.

So some twisted a funeral into a bombing attack/political statement then some one else twisted the bombing video into a hate engine for Conservative Americans. Over a million people have viewed the video. More than 130,000 have shared it. Over 30,000 have clicked "Like" on Facebook.

Gotta love the Conservatives who just got manipulated into enjoying the murder of innocent mourners.

Deaton Creek Tennis Courts, Hall County Commission, and a Democratic Party Club?

There's a story in the Gainesville Times from the Hall County Commissioners meeting.

The subdivision, Deaton Creek, needs tennis court repairs. The county is responsible. There's a water line running under the damaged court. But, when the residents request repair, the All Red Republican Party County Commissioners delay the repairs.

Why?

Well, Deaton Creek has a Democrats Club. They sponsor forums for Democratic Candidates. They hold a monthly meeting. And, members of the subdivision worked to recall current Republican Commissioner, Craig Lutz.

Lutz claimed the recall was a personal attack. He harassed all the people involved. His wife confronted one of her neighbors with a how dare you sign a petition. Nice way for a teacher to act. Just walk over to a strangers house. Knock on the front door and start spewing hatred.

So Deaton Creek needs the tennis courts fixed.

Fat chance.

The letter from Rick Frommer

In a recent letter to the editor, the writer alleges a 1960's conspiracy to stop profitable recycling of nuclear waste. According to the authror, the massive conspiracy stopped civil rights legislation, defeated General Westmoreland in an election, and preserved corruption in the Democratic Party.

I remember the Sixties. So do many other people. It would do well to remember the facts in that decade.

Young President John F. Kennedy proposed civil rights legislation in 1963. The 1964 Civil Rights Act came to a Congressional vote and was signed by President Lyndon Johnson on July 2, 1964, just months after Kennedy's assassination in Dallas, Texas. Among the nay votes were Democrats and Republicans with every Southern Republican voting against the new law. Southern Republican refers to the Congressman from the 11 states which constituted the Confederate slave states a hundred years earlier. In the Senate, 69% of Democrats voted for the bill.

Johnson would sign the 1968 Civil Right Act before leaving the White House. Hardly a Democratic conspiracy to stop civil rights legislation.

General Westmoreland didn't retire from the military until 1972. His military service and career were stained by US involvement in Vietnam and his several decisions to suppress military reports. Suppressing information hit a low point in 1968 when the Calley massacre cover-up lasted 13 months. Westmoreland left Vietnam after the horrific losses of the 1968 Tet Offensive. His unsuccessful political campaign was in 1974 not in the Sixties.

No President has been as corrupt as Republican President Richard Nixon who was elected in 1968. Nixon used what is know as the Southern strategy in national politics. The strategy was to appeal to the white Southern racist called "Negrophobe whites" by Nixon's people.

As to profitable recycling of radioactive waste in the 1960's? Not possible. Not possible today. Although Governor Deal and others like the Heritage Foundation have made false reports of successful efforts in the UK and France. The UK and France are actively seeking underground disposal options and not any mythical recycling program.

The UK offers 'bribes' to communities to consider storage of its 260,000 cubic meters of radioactive waste.

France had 1.32 million cubic meters of nuclear waste in 2010, a 13% increase over 2009.

People have been trying to explain how the world works since we first walked upright. Lying about the past isn't new. Lying about nuclear waste is just tool of Republicans.

Deal done by Deal for Real

Okay. So I make half of this stuff up.

Goobernator Dave E. Deal has cut a deal for a golden parachute with the State Department of Education. As a part of the done Deal, Deal gets $107 million dollars to write a standardized test which matches Common Core tests.

Yeah. Right. Deal doesn't want Common Core. He will campaign against it if he's not in jail this fall.

So what does it cost now to double test kids in Georgia schools. According to the AJC,

According to AJC, Georgia spends $25 million now on all assessments in K-12, including end-of-course exams and financial assistance to students to take Advanced Placement tests. PARCC reportedly set a maximum cost to states of $18.50 per student (though PARCC would not confirm that figure). Based on the number of students who took English/language arts and math tests in Georgia this year, the Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT), the hypothetical cost of the PARCC tests by themselves would max out at $27.5 million. (The CRCT is normally given to grades 1-8, but this year, due to "budget constraints," it was only given in grades 3-8.)

So if Deal doesn't get his Deal, Georgia pays $25 million for 'budget constrained' tests in five grades.

But Deal got his Deal so Georgia pays him $107 million dollars.

So somebody got hell of a deal by Deal's deal. About $75 million dollars has been flown out of Deal's ass for testing to Common Core Standards. Testing he refused to do for $25 million dollars.

Tell me you don't believe education gets pig piles of public phunding.

BTW, you can check out some of my lies at this here link.

GOP Senate Candidates showering with Obama

While the Star and Inquirer broke the real story behind Obama and his long term affairs with Catherine Kennedy, Kellie Ripa, and Ruth Lyons granddaughter, Republicans voters have the real story behind the Soap on a Rope Scandal.

Depending on which campaign mailing list serves your email address. Jack Kingston ... or David Perdue ... have been showering with President Obama. According to Talking Heads R U, one or both candidates have a shower pass at the White House on a once per week basis.

Jack Kingston first showered with Obama in 1992 promising he would stop washing after three terms in office.

David Perdue was caught without his Soap on a Rope only once since turning 18. That was the election of who knows when. Maybe a primary when Perdue turned out to vote. Well, vote Republican. Perdue denies scrubbing behind his ears saying, "I'm a businessman not a professional politician."

We will give Perdue squeaky clean marks for his professional business like dealings with the Power Shower and Soap on the Rope Gang. After all, somebody ia always getting dirty in business and politics.

Karen Handel reversed her earlier stance on hot water, soap, and standing up. She's now a proper stand up Southern Republican lady who drinks Southern Sweet Ice Tea and never sweats. Soap never touches her skin especially on her face. Besides, Handel knows more about everything because she never attended a Beauty College.

Paul Broun made no comments during the Soap on a Rope scandal until an official press release this evening. Doctor Paul Broun has never used Soap on a Rope. He has not used it here. He has not used it there. Doctor Broun has always washed his hands like doctor about to perform a later term abortion.

Phil Gingrey has changed his official bio page to include details of his weekly showering rituals. He sings Italian Opera with a lisp every Friday night in cold water from his neighbors garden hose. This weak attempt to gain his own scandal backfired when his neighbor denied owning a hose that long. The neighbors wife signed a statement swearing, "I've never seen anything that long in our neighbor. Ever." Phil's exciting campaign may be nearing an end as rumors swirl around a bath tub ring.

Art Gardner and Derrick Grayson, political outsiders, did not understand the importance of good political hygiene. Press releases from their campaigns failed to deny or affirm a preference for standing or sitting when soaped.

Smoking causes cancer but the Big Bang is just a TV show

When you read it in an Australian newspaper, it must be true.

Just don't get all proud about well informed Americans.

The newspaper article is about the ignorance of Americans and the relationship to anti-government feeling, religion, and voting patterns.

FEW Americans question that smoking causes cancer. But they have more scepticism than confidence in global warming, the age of the Earth and evolution and have the most trouble believing a Big Bang created the universe 13.8 billion years ago
.
Rather than quizzing scientific knowledge, the survey asked people to rate their confidence in several statements about science and medicine.

On some, there's broad acceptance. Just four per cent doubt that smoking causes cancer, six per cent question whether mental illness is a medical condition that affects the brain and eight per cent are sceptical there's a genetic code inside our cells. More - 15 per cent - have doubts about the safety and efficacy of childhood vaccines.
About 4 in 10 say they are not too confident or outright disbelieve that the Earth is warming, mostly a result of man-made heat-trapping gases, that the Earth is 4.5 billion years old or that life on Earth evolved through a process of natural selection, though most were at least somewhat confident in each of those concepts. But a narrow majority - 51 per cent - questions the Big Bang theory.

Seven Million sign up for 'Obamacare.' Rush Limbaugh says ....

Stand back! I heard this on the Moon Bat station of my Obama issued, free talk radio.

"Yeah, seven million signed up but it's all the same person, Michelle."

"No. It really was just one person but it took them seven million times."

"No. We don't know if it was seven million people who got insurance. It could be seven million people with full shopping carts."

"No! I have the truth. It was seven million people who visited the site, created an account, filled the shopping cart but they couldn't pay at check out."

Oh the shame of it all.

It's sort of like saying, "Yeah, there are 50 million Americans over age 65 who were lifted out of poverty by the Social Security program. But, none of them work! They're ... dead beats drawing a government check. They have no incentive to greet people at Wal-Mart! They are not willing to SuperSize that McDonald's Meal on Wheels. What good is a government program if it doesn't put people to work!?"

GOP regulates Vidalia Onions. Activist judge says No.

As if we've done everything that we can do in Georgia to destroy our national image.

Now, we're regulating farmers and when they can harvest their crops.

How is that smaller government? How does that roll back regulations and government red tape?

Oh frack. I don't have a clue.

Those of us who like Vidalia onions better wake up. The GOP has judged our onions. They are not as sweet as they should be!

So in August, Ag Commissioner Gray Black banned all shipments until April 1st. Nope. Not an April Fools joke. Just an old fool telling farmers when and how to run a farm.

Don't believe the story?

Take a bit out of this link and tell me your eyes don't burn!

What if we wore our underwear inside out?

First, think about it. Who would know? Who would care? Would you tell someone?

Second, think about how underwear is constructed. SEAMS! The fabric is sewn together with the seams to your skin. Why not put the smooth side against our silky smooth baby bottom for the ultimate in comfort?

Third and most important. Anthony Wiener and the whole Republican Party think from 'inside the boxers.'

Here's what I propose for real men. Tomorrow, turn those seams around. Proudly wear your boxers inside out. Tell no one but wear a face of defiance. Because ...

Today, I think outside the boxers!

Those of you still in briefs or whitie tighties, don't try this. To be as polite as possible, if you are wearing a tight turban, turning it inside out doesn't change a thing.

Republican propaganda in Hall County

There's going to be a Brown Pants meeting on Monday.

Hall County's Congressman, Empty Suit, has organized a "Field Hearing" on Obamacare.

Why is it called a field hearing? Because they found the witnesses and evidence in a field of cow pies.

In a more serious tone, the Committee on Oversight and Government sponsored the event. Oh, the irony of House Republicans having a committee to oversee themselves. Do they understand there's no such legislation creating Obamacare? It's called the Affordable Care Act or ACA.

Who does monitor the 'monitors?' Who is making sure they make no mistakes.

The Republican answer to that age old question is, "We are!"

The Committee on Oversight maintains a website. Here's the page on the Gainesville/Hall County field hearing.

The link don't work. There's no way to preview witness and testimony documents or see the topics. Not even an agenda.

However, Congressman Empty Suit has bombarded me with emails. Excuse me. Propaganda.

Here's my pre-view:

I hate Obama.
I hate his wife.
I hate his kids.
I hate the color of his skin.

He was born in Kenya.
He faked a short form birth certificate.
He was appointed to office by the Liberal controlled Mainstream media conspiracy to convert 'America' to a Marxist Minority Majority.

Yawn.

Where's my oversight committee? It's ME!

BTW, Empty Suit is a 'native born' name given to the 9th District Congressman. Dumb Ass was taken.

Rhinos in Kenya versus RINO's in Congress

Our world is losing biological diversity at an alarming rate. One threatened beast is the rhino. That huge hog with armor plating and a monster sized hood ornament.

Poachers have nearly hunted them to extinction cutting off the horn and leaving the carcass to rot. The horn has mythical value to some as a healing agent. It's much more valuable to the rhino.

Kenya is now forming a plan to slow or stop the rhino poachers. The Australian reports all remaining rhinos will have a microchip implanted in their horn.

Before any jokes about the NSA monitoring the chips, park rangers will do it with hand held scanners. Plus, those rangers get to subdue the beasts before implanting the chips.

There's a job opportunity in that some where.

But, what to do when the poacher is caught? I've suggested cutting off their noses.

Certain Republican members in the House of Representatives tried that recently and liked it. They may do it again. Hopefully, this cutting off one's nose to spite the country will continue in Congress until we can separate the REAL Republicans from the pretend Republicans by looking at them.

Rhinos and RINOs should have noses. The selfish can do without them.

Sing to the tune of the Beverly Hillbillies

Let me tell you a story about a place called Hall.
Had a man named Deal controlling it all.
When one day he was feeling kind of rude.
Said ya'll pay my buddies or I'll even take your food.

All there is. Green gold. All for me!

Well first thing you know all his friends are billionaires.
Honest folk said you better move away from here.
Said federal prison is the place you ought to be.
So they loaded up the trucks and shipped it overseas.

Cayman Islands. Tax Shelters. No extradition.

Well now it’s time to say good bye to Deal and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you for kindly pitching in.
You'll never see them back again in this locality.
To have a big helping of prison hospitality.

Crossbar hotel. Calaboose. Jump suits. Sandals.

Ya'll don't come back, ya hear?

Cartoon Fun

Just a little something on Healthcare and Washington. The GOP has been saying, "Let's Start Over!" on healthcare.

Outside of Washington, heathcare doesn't have playground do-overs. If a patient dies, they stay dead. It doesn't matter if the death was from neglect or departmental turf wars. Dead is dead. There's no starting over.

The GOP killed healthcare reform over the past 14 months by doing nothing. So to the GOP:

"You can't have a do-over if you haven't done something!"

And, to the Democrats: Eavesdrop on the message to the Republicans.

In the greatest country in the world, people are dying because insurance companies won't let doctors save lives. Period.
