Happy 4^th, dear reader.

Violent Felon And His Gump Humping Accomplice

In what, unfortunately, is becoming part of a continuing series.

When last we left our listing ship of state, an Iraqi War Vet was intentionally murdered in his home by a SWAT team who wanted no prisoners and has since taken a vow of silence that would make monks envious.

Since then, our beknighted Supreme Court has held that evading our increasingly militarized police force in itself constituting a “violent felony” and the Department of Education (which shouldn’t even exist) has discovered that it has the power to issue warrants for arrest and maintain a standing SWAT team to enforce Collections of past due student loans with deadly force or other non-violent offenses.

I can only assume that Chief Injustice Roberts and Injustice Alito will soon find that inability to payback the loan on your education constitutes a violent felony as well and is “inherently dangerous” because you have created a situation where the SWAT team might kill you.

This is not America.  Our Supreme Court has a prevailing statist homodoxy with no regard for the 4th Amendment or individual liberty.   I blame the Harvard/Yale monopoly on the court.  Sure we’ve got two Italians, a black, a wise Latina, two lesbians, a clatch of metrosexual crackers and a flip-flopping Father Time but they all have one thing in common – Homodoxy of Education.   They all went to the same two schools and have never been exposed to a world outside of those Ivy League enclaves.  We’re a country of 300 Million plus people.  How can 9 people from two schools possibly be the one size fits all approach when they’ve all mutated from the same intellectual petri dish?

It’s time for a moratorium on Harvard and Yale being anointed to lead our country and the court. The Egghead-ocracy has failed or else we wouldn’t be complaining.  We’re living in The Simpson’s “They Saved Lisa’s Brain” episode with deadly results.

Sometimes evading the police is a necessity.  Ask any woman traveling alone who has been pulled over by an unmarked police car.  Almost anyone would tell her that if she cannot identify the car behind her as a police car that she should continue driving, following the rules of the road, to a well-lit public area.  By the standard the Supreme Court has enacted this week, any criminal impersonating a police officer has a new weapon in their rape arsenal provided by our illustrious Supreme Court.

I also take it that now any time a van full of illegal aliens  refuses to pull over that they will all be charged with felonies and deported, correct?

Why are our cars designed to travel faster than the speed limit?  Why are we even given the choice if the penalty for using it is the loss of your voting rights and ability to get a job? And above all else, why are we surrendering individual freedom to people who have been shown time and time again to fall far from sainthood and abuse it?

The Supreme Court is making police officers the new Priesthood.  Instead of Scarlet A’s on our chests they mark Scarlet DUI’s to the sung glory of MADD madrigals.  Instead of molesting altar boys, they coerce sexual favors from motorists in exchange for leniency.  Not all, but enough to not give the entire profession a pass on infringing on everyone else’s rights.

Our highest court has been compromised and with it our freedom is on hiatus for their lifetime appointments.  The Dark Ages of American Liberty.

To that end, Mr. Camping got people talking about their faiths in the living rooms of their neighbors and the eye-rolling, gallows humor of the rare few with jobs left.  Singing along to Camping’s Jonathan Edwards cover band.

If it takes the imminent threat of eternal damnation to change the way you treat your fellow man then your faith’s credibility ranks somewhere near Camping’s clairvoyance.

The man’s almost dead.  I’m sure he thought he would be dead before this date came and went.  When I was 20, I thought I would be dead by 25.  It’s why we drink.  It’s why we smoke.   It’s not that we think we’re indestructible.  It’s that we’re painfully aware of how vulnerable we are to a nihilistic degree.

Camping’s no different than Al Gore and the Hot Earthers.  I thought all the coastal cities were supposed to be modern day Atlantises by now!  How many passes does this guy get?  An armada of polar bears on ice floes should be threatening invasion of Southern California by now.

This planet hates us.  The story of human history starts with our adaptation and conquest of it and then each other.  Every once in a while, it reminds us that we don’t control it.  So quit trying.  You can’t balance a budget, quit telling us that you can manage a tilted spinning mudball with a Happy Fun Ball center.  And quit pretending you’re any different than some nut with a shock of white hair waiving a bible at us and telling us that we’re all doomed if we don’t repent and by $50 LED bulbs.

By my count, Camping’s been an amateur compared to how much money the environmental movement has looted from the Treasury.  At least his followers were given a choice.

I have my doubts.  For those who are still disgusted by the perpetually going-off-half-cocked behavior of Arizona Sheriff Clarence Dupenik, who blamed right-wing radio for a paranoid schizophrenic Democrat shooting Gabby Giffords, it’s of no comfort that his pre-meditated murder (and subsequent cover-up) of a two tour Iraqi War veteran in his own home will be applauded by the allegedly conservative Justices Roberts, Alito, Scalia &  Thomas:

A Tucson, Ariz., SWAT team defends shooting an Iraq War veteran 60 times during a drug raid, although it declines to say whether it found any drugs in the house and has had to retract its claim that the veteran shot first.

And the Pima County sheriff scolded the media for “questioning the legality” of the shooting.

Jose Guerena, 26, died the morning of May 5. He was asleep in his Tucson home after working a night shift at the Asarco copper mine when his wife, Vanessa, saw the armed SWAT team outside her youngest son’s bedroom window.

“She saw a man pointing at her with a gun,” said Reyna Ortiz, 29, a relative who is caring for Vanessa and her children. Ortiz said Vanessa Guerena yelled, “Don’t shoot! I have a baby!”

Yes, it’s an isolated incident.  Not nearly as isolated as we would like to believe. But the revolutionary disrespect for the Fourth Amendment from Rookie SWAT/Hired Murderer #1 all the way to Supreme Court Chief Justice makes me question my continued citizenship.  We’ve got to expect the murder of a few innocent eggs to make our Drug War omelet and if they were innocent after all – well, fuck it.  Don’t you dare have the temerity to question the policy.  After all, who do you think you are?  A free person in a country that respects your right to life, secure in your personal property or to pursue your individual happiness?

Grow up.

When you no longer have a right to defend yourself from someone anonymously and violently breaking into your home, you’re no longer in America anyway.

While surfing this morning I see this Google ad (note the first link).

So I conducted a little Thought Exercise, I deleted the cookies and refreshed the page. Yep, we are being profiled.

No one, least of whom me, should be surprised by this. I just find the technology both fascinating and creepy as hell.

Another interesting point is that I used Bing** last night. Yet the result came up through Google ads.

* If you’re curious, the car is nearly $40k. As mentioned earlier, it’s a wish list.

** Sergy Brin’s smug disregard for privacy is sometimes enough for me to embrace Bill Gate’s smug regard for monopolistic business practices.

Kiss my ass Nancy “Let’s pass this to see what’s in it” Pelosi. Kiss my ass Unions who demanded that it be funded with Cadillac plan taxes, but not their Cadillac plans. Kiss my ass liberal college students who agitate for justice as long as the only cost to them is the evening they could have spent watching Mad Men ironically. Kiss my ass Eurotrash who think that Americans are too selfish to embrace big State nannyism. Kiss my ass Blue Dog Dems.

Did I miss anyone? If so, they can kiss my ass too.

Obama plays golf while wife speaks in Arkansas

(AP) – 9 hours ago

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama is playing golf while his wife, Michelle, delivers a college commencement speech in Pine Bluff, Ark.

The president watched his daughter Malia play soccer Saturday before heading to the Fort Belvoir course to play golf.

Politicizing the gulf oil spill, having Iran spit in our face,plotting the destruction of Israel, bragging about how high unemployment is actually a sign of economic recovery, and oh yes, ignoring the largest non-hurricane disaster in US history – oh yes he can and no, he can’t be bothered.

Hrm, I certainly remember how this played out a few years ago.

Two AP photos from this past Tuesday, placed side by side, tell a story.

Here a fellow named George W. Bush is having a delightful time playing a guitar given to him by country singer Mark Wills after a visit to Naval Base Coronado in sunny southern California. It’s fun to be president.

Here firefighters and rescue workers try to cope with the worst disaster to strike Americans since 9/11. It is not a good day for them.

David Corn, September 2005

Where little Davey Corn on this?  Where all my commies?

Yea, you can imagine.  Playing politics and the race card as usual.

Six years ago today, this little blog started. It has run the gamut from 8th-tier blog, to several beautiful weeks as 1st-tier blog, eventually settling in to our cozy little spot in 3rd-tier blogdom.

Life was simpler then. We spent time arguing about the idiotic socialist-lite, country-club Republican ways of President Junior. We chuckled as Lurch Kerry tried to dethrone the Bush family in 2004. How bad must you suck to lose to a liberal, country-club, elitist Republican like that? Just ask Kerry and Gore, they know. And they still suck out loud in every facet of their putrid existences.

Most of all, we’ve spent quality time together mocking the gaggle of commies on the left. Now that we’ve got a Marxist in the White House and a bunch of card-carrying useful idiots in congress ram-rodding George Soros’ new great society down our throats, it’s just not as amusing as it once was.

However, six years later, we’re still here and we’re still taking pot-shots and fighting the power. It’s not as cool to fight the power when you’re white, male and conservative, but since when have we ever worried about being cool?

So happy birthday to us and screw everyone who doesn’t hoist an adult beverage in our honor today!
