Another Important Word from Our General

Whatta concept!

Make little kids attack their adult attackers!

[Rallians who prefer to hyperfocus on drone deaths, deaths which are highly superior to all other forms of death and suffering, are invited to turn off their mirror neurons now.]

Hey, Moms & Dads & Kids! It's OK to Have Defective Mirror Neurons! Ted Rall Said So!

I dunno, I just get all turned inside out, I really get my panties in a twist when people I think of as oh you know kinda librul and kinda well-informed and kinda on the side of you know um like compassion or something, admittedly under unbearable pressure from the continual suffering of samsara (look it up; not the perfume), say stuff that just makes no f***ing sense.

I expect stuff that makes no f***ing sense from Bork and Cheney and Ryan and Bachmann, et al., I don't expect it from Ted Rall. I expect progressiveness, not faux-gressiveness, and I certainly neither expect nor want faux-gressive fascism masquerading as Uber Moral High Ground.  Silly me.

Actually, I tell a lie.  I do expect it from sha-touched cartoonist Ted Rall. I didn't used to, but now I do.

Alas.

"We Don't Have the Right to Care"? Excuse me?

Okay, right, drones trump twats, Rall's made that very clear. Yeah, it's a boy thing, missiles? Yeah, right, boy toys! Phallic stuff!

Phallic stuff counts, don't you get it? He knows which way the moral compass is pointed, and it's his guy way or the highway, because, you know, Rall.

Guess what? Drones trump massacres! Even kiddy massacres! Why?

Because Rall said so!

So, if you're out there looking to toe the line on permissible compassion, be sure to follow Rall. He'll be happy to bully you in the name of his sacred sexist nihilist dogma, because, why should he not?

In the immortal words of George III: "I desire the good, therefore all those who disagree with me are traitors."

Those With Uteri Shall Be As Ovens -- Prescient Post Published in 2012!! But Now, Post #DeathROEcult SCOTUS Six, Wombs ARE Mere OVENS

GOP Senator Rand Paul is pushing a new bill to establish Personhood For Fetuses.

Paul and his supporting cast intend to eliminate freedom of reproduction, forcing women to give birth against their will, and supporting a rapist's right to breed.  He also wants to repeal Roe v. Wade.

Lest you think this is only a right-wing problem, do recall the stance of Faux-gressives such as sha-touched cartoonist Ted Rall, who, sadly beset by the false belief that drones trump wombs, equates the struggle for reproductive rights as being on par with the fight to lengthen weekend hours at public libraries.

I'm not making this up.  I don't have to.  I never have to.

Election Day

1.  Timid centrist better than Bushist fascist.

2.   Wombs trump drones.

Faux Ryan: Photo Op for the Poors

Well, clean pots don't just wash themselves, do they?  It takes someone to make them dirty so they can be photographed making them clean.  So that that person has the appearance of compassion.  Not actual compassion.  Fake it till you make it?

Statement on Attacks

October 4, 2012 — Colleen Lachowicz

Here is a statement from our campaign in response to the personal attacks made on Colleen by the Maine Republican Party. If anyone has further questions, Ericka Dodge can be reached at 232-5892.
Ed Lachowicz
Campaign Manager, Colleen Lachowicz for State Senate
***
Waterville, ME—State Senate candidate Colleen Lachowicz released the following statement in response to an attack piece sent out by the Maine Republican Party.

Colleen Lachowicz says, “I think it’s weird that I’m being targeted for playing online games. Apparently I’m in good company since there are 183 million other Americans who also enjoy online games. What’s next? Will I be ostracized for playing Angry Birds or Words with Friends? If so, guilty as charged!”

Lachowicz added, “What’s really weird is that the Republicans are going after my hobbies instead of talking about their record while they’ve been running Augusta for the last two years. Instead of talking about what they’re doing for Maine people, they’re making fun of me for playing video games. Did you know that more people over the age of 50 play video games than under the age of 18? As a gamer, I’m in good company with folks like Jodie Foster, Vin Diesel, Mike Myers, and Robin Williams. Maybe it’s the Republican Party that is out of touch.”


According to the Entertainment Software Rating Board, here’s a break down and profile of a gamer in the United States:

• 65% of U.S. households
• 49% of 18 – 49 year olds
• 26% over the age of 50
• 25% under the age of 18
• 2 out of 5 people are female
• average age of a gamer is 34
• $24.8 billion industry

According to the Christian Science Monitor, 183 million Americans play video games.

GOP vs Gamer

 Well, really, they hate us for our freedoms.

But there are some freedoms we have that we shouldn't.  Like freedom of reproduction.

Or freedom to be a gamer and run for the Maine State Senate.

Support an orc, here.

Romney Tosses Notes on Podium

Why didn't he just write stuff on his hands?

Self-Appointed Heap Big Cherokee Genealogist Scott Brown Scalps Self

Well, it took me all of six minutes on Ancestry.com to find an Arkansas County marriage index a record of marriage between Harry Gunn Reed of Fayetteville, Washington, Arkansas and Bethania Elvina "Hannie" Crawford on 2 June 1893.  He was 20, and she was about 17.

Her residence was listed in this record as "Indian Territory."

Just sayin'.

Oh, this would be Elizabeth Warren's paternal grandmother, btw.

Hannie E. Crawford

Gender:	Female
Age:	17
Birth Year:	abt 1876
Residence:	Indian Territory
Spouse's Name:	Harry G Reed
Spouse's Gender:	Male
Spouse's Age:	20
Spouse's Residence:	Fayetteville, Washington, Arkansas
Marriage Date:	2 Jun 1893
Marriage License Date:	2 Jun 1893
Marriage County:	Sebastian
Event Type:	Marriage
FHL Film Number:	1034043 Then there is Hannie Crawford's father, Warren's great-grandfather, who moved from Missouri to Arkansas to Oklahoma, eventually settling down happily in Indian Territory, Cherokee Nation, Township 12, District 47.  John H. Crawford Birth: Mar. 26, 1858  Death: Jan 23, 1924  Father: Preston H.(Presley) Crawford b: 1824 in Tennessee Mother: Edith (Ede) Marsh b: 5 MAR 1826 in Bledsoe County, Tennessee  Marriage 1 Paulina Bowen b: BET 1858 AND 1860 in Missouri•Married: ABT 1874 in Missouri Children 1. Bethena Crawford b: 1875 in Missouri [Bethania Elvina "Hannie" Crawford]  2. Laura A. Crawford b: 1877 in Texas 3. Lula May Crawford b: MAY 1880 in Arkansas 4. John Walter (Walter) Crawford b: 1883 in Texas 5. Charles Houston (Charley) Crawford b: 18 JAN 1885 in Arkansas 6. Sisie Crawford b: 1888 in Arkansas 7. Eddie Crawford b: 1894 in Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, Oklahoma 8. Rosco Crawford b: 1896 in Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, Oklahoma 9. Bessie Crawford b: 1898 in Indian Territory (OK) Marriage 2 Sarah Elizabeth Smith b: 16 DEC 1860 in Laclede Co. Missouri (Bennett Springs area)• Married: 2 SEP 1904 in Laclede Co., Missouri  John H. Crawford's residence on this marriage certificate is listed as "Wetumka, Indian Territory."  Burial: Wetumka Cemetery, Wetumka, Hughes County, Oklahoma, USA. And here are other Crawford relations, who, though not running for the Senate, are apparently for political and social advantage concocting Indian ancestors [NOT].  Same lineage as Warren, fwiw. All those Crawfords who resided in Indian Territory, Cherokee Nation, Township 12, District 47, are listed on the 1900 Census as white. As is every single other resident of Indian Territory, Cherokee Nation, Township 12, District 47.  You do the math.

And Now A Word From Our General

Here.

I'm Not Calling Ted Rall A Gender-Biased FauxGressive

Just kidding.

Of course I am.

Take a look at this.

It's not Rall's most sexist and dismissive cartoon;  it's just his most recent dismissive and sexist cartoon.

Carrying on his fab tradition in which drones trump vaginas.  You get it, do you not?  Left side:  lazy selfish superficial American female harping on trivial girlie issue.  Right side:  drone victim! Blood! Death!  Real suffering! It's obvious where the moral center lies, right?  Hint:  it's not with that superficial selfish broad! 

Really, if Rall weren't such a self-proclaimed atheist, you'd think he must have been a Catholic priest in a past life.   Or lives.  Come to think of it, his current self-conception wouldn't contradict that frame, would it?

You can't be progressive if you're against freedom of reproduction, dude.

I'm Not Calling Ted Rall Ageist

No, really, I'm not.

He's doing that all by himself!

Meh. Fauxgressives. Feh.

Really, you can't call yourself progressive if you're willing to sell women into reproductive slavery because you're pissed that timid centrist Obama has been revealed to be -- surprise! -- a timid centrist.

And, you know, not even sell them into reproductive slavery, because you're not getting any money for selling women out, either, are you?

Drones trump vaginas.

Romney is Obama, just as Bush was always Gore.

The suffering of millions is nowhere near as important as the suffering of thousands--well, really, it's just a number, ladies!  Don't get your panties in a twist about it! International suffering is of course more important than your silly little domestic suffering!

Freedom of reproduction is just, a, a, a, selfish parochial interest!

Just ask self-satisfied FauxGressive Ted Rall!

Paul Ryan Loves to Rip Nesting Catfish Moms off Nest; Kills Mom, Deals Death to Widdle Helpless Fishie Babies

(Hat-tip to General JC Christian, Patriot)

It's called "noodling catfish."
A cover-up phrase, like "collateral damage."

In Missouri, hand-catching catfish is illegal, for a whole bunch of reasons, here.
It's bad for the catfish, decimates their numbers.  Sort of like catching a lobster with eggs.

But proud "pro-lifer" Ryan feels that freedom to catch and kill and eat nesting catfish is an important freedom.

No, really, he thinks that.

Quoth pro-life catfish killer Ryan:

I love Texas. You know why I love Texas? Because you love your freedom."

 Ryan said he planned to head to Oklahoma on Sunday and take his children fishing on Lake Texoma, then indulge in another favorite activity in the afternoon: “I’m going to go out with some of my Okie friends, and I’m going to do something that I’ve been doing for a number of years, and that’s called noodling catfish.

“And I want to say something to you Texans — because you understand freedom, you now legally recognize a man’s right to catch a catfish with his own bare hands.”

Paul Ryan--a special guy.

A special guy on a special ticket:  Traumatized Dog Shits Self While Caged On Car Roof Speeding Down Highway Guy//PLUS//Nesting Mama FishKilla With Bare Hands Jolly Good Fun Freeedom Dude.

Okay, then.

Paul Ryan is a Personhood Proponent: Feti First!

"Personhood

Personhood: The Pro-Life Movement's Ultimate Goal

The bedrock principle of the pro-life movement - that all preborn babies are "persons" and all innocent people share the inalienable right to life - is the benchmark against which pro-lifers must evaluate any strategy to protect preborn children.
What is Personhood?
What is personhood and why is it so foundational to the pro-life movement?  Put simply, a "person" is a human being who is fully protected under the law; and we use the legal term "personhood" to describe this condition.  Once a human being is declared a person, that individual is guaranteed certain legal rights.
To better understand personhood, we begin by asking the fundamental question of when human life begins.  Embryological science has made crystal clear that human life begins at fertilization: the union of an egg and sperm resulting in a unique, genetically distinct human being.  The answer to the question of when human life begins is a biological one. 
The follow-up question is:  "Is this tiny embryonic human being a ‘person' who is guaranteed the right to life?"  In other words, should human beings be protected in law as persons; as citizens upon whom full constitutional protections (due process, equal protection, etc.) should confer?  The answer to the question of personhood is a political/legal one.  Once a human being is declared to be a legal person, there simply can be no exceptions to his or her inalienable right to life; just as there are no exceptions to our right to life.

Paul Ryan supports the rights of embryos over the rights of women in whose bodies they have manifested.

Because embryos are people and women are not.  

Oh Frabjous Day

I blame Obama for the demise of this blog.

But--things may be looking up!

Ronald Romney has dubbed Big-Time Fetal Sentimentalist Paul Ryan as his VP pick!

There's nobodies I likes to blog about more than Big-Time Fetal Sentimentalists, unless its
GOP Government Nationalizing the Wombs of Women, which Paul Ryan also is!  And--he's a proud opponent of the Freedom to Reproduce!

So I am not promising anything, just thinking that indeed, things may be looking up.

Except for unwanted children, like the one above.  Paul Ryan is a fan of government-forced birth.  I am not.  I think it's important that mothers never think much less say to their children, 'I wish you'd never been born."

Sad White Babies With Mean Feminist Mommies

Its my [gender-specific body part] and I'll vote for it if I want to.

People I know, and people I like, in fact, people I both know and like are getting their panties in a twist about the timid feeble centrist Obama, which designation most of us had figured out long before the Arugulist got elected.

I'm not unhappy he was elected.  Eisenhower was a better liberal Democrat, really, than Obama, and Eisenhower was of course a Republican, but you, know, McCain, and then there was Palin, and I am very happy she's not a heartbeat away from the Presidency, and don't call me a durn anti-skirtist for saying so.

The faux-prog-libro-gressive LOATHING of Barry O is just so interesting because it's so, so, jam-packed with Naturally Organic Vitriol!  Our Loathing of Barry is so pure!  It's so, so, squeaky damn clean!  We ARE right!  You who do not toe our party line are BrainDead because you fail 2 agree with US!  Party line!  Party line!  Party line!

What was it some asian said?  Something like holding on to anger is like swallowing poison and expecting the other guy to drop dead?  Yea, but that's so Asian.  [shrugs]

With folded hands, I bow down to those who see Mitt as Barry.  Who are so depressed by the status quo, they move toward greater depression and oppression because it really couldn't get any worse, could it?  After all, Bush WAS Gore.  And we lived through that just fine, did we not?

Law Prof Unger Throws Broads Under Bus

Obama must be defeated!

Yes, there will be a price.  The supremes price.
You girlz will pay the price.  So what.

We fauxgressives don't give a shit.

Did you really think we ever did?

Shut up about it, sweeties.

Long Hair on a Male: Romney Takes Scissors, Assaults Peer, Cuts Bangs Off

Mitt's so sexist, he'll make you toe his line by whatever means necessary.

In this case, it's violent assault.

" . . he was walking around the all-boys school with bleached-blond hair that draped over one eye, and Romney wasn’t having it.  [Long bangs!  No-oo!]

GOP Government: Occupy Vaginas!

Republicans, Get In My Vagina! from Kate Beckinsale     

It's the Misogyny, Stupid

The more I hear women should just "get over" all this misogyny, the more I realize misogyny is the central problem. In a phrase, "It's the misogyny, stupid!" And it is.

People trying to exert power and control over others, making them do what they want, denying freedom of choice, denying individual decision-making, putting them down, shaming, blaming, keeping them uppity wimmen barefoot and pregnant.

The so-called "small government" GOP proudly inserts itself into -- then nationalizes -- the wombs of all women. They wouldn't want to nationalize anything else, would they? Forced invasive vaginal probes? Sure thing. No problema. GOP don't care about spending that kind of money on useless pricey ultrasounds.

GOP push laws that flout medical privacy by making bosses privy to their workers' plans to have or not have children--because GOP's decided women must breed--or else. They need to show their employers a note from their doctors, swearing the prescription for the pill is not being taken to control birth.

Talibangelical GOPs are hot and bothered trying to protect a rapist's right to breed. They support government-forced childbearing. They, not you, will determine family size. They, not you, will be in control.

Fetus-firsters are entranced by the notion of random parenthood--why should having a child be a thoughtful, planful decision when it could occur on a whim? GOP fetal sentimentalists get all teary-eyed for embryos, but once a kid is out of the womb, good luck, it's on it's own. Children are, to them, the rightful punishment for having had sex.
