THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM {Edited}

 

 

 

 

YES, HURRICANE SANDY IS BLASTING THE UNITED STATES.

LET’S HOPE THAT THIS DEADLY SUPER STORM IS NOT SUPERSEDED BY A MORE FATAL FRANKENSTORM ON NOVEMBER 6, 2012.

VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA…

NOT MITT ROMNEY!

LET MR. SMIRKING ROMNEY LIVE IN ONE OF HIS MANY MANSIONS, OR GO RETIRE ON ONE OF HIS MONEY-SHELTERED ABODES.

From "Mitt Romney's Dirty Dozen"

Dozen http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/mitt-romneys-dirty-dozen-20121022

 

Not so long ago, Mitt Romney used to blast deadly coal-fired power plants and talk up emission caps to curb the "dramatic warming of our planet." But as the GOP nominee for president, Romney has become dirty energy's biggest cheerleader. As his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, slams federal investment in wind and solar energy as "green pork," Romney is loudly championing Big Oil, Big Coal, fracking and the disastrous Keystone XL pipeline that will bring climate-killing Canadian crude to the global export market.

What accounts for Mitt's extreme energy makeover? Millions of dollars in campaign spending from fossil-fuel titans and advice from the drill-baby-drill crowd might have something to do with it. Here's a look at Romney's Dirty Dozen – the lobbyists, CEOs and advisers who are driving his radical dirty-energy agenda.

You’re cuckoo!

Sununu!

Oyster stew

Is better than

You!

IT’S THE OIL STUPID!

 

 

 

MORONS AND GOD

"What God lacks is convictions- stability of character. He ought to be a Presbyterian or a Catholic or something- not try to be everything."
Mark Twain- Notebook, 1898

 ***

God is Perfect and Omniscient.

To say that He is Supreme might be superfluous, but He is still the Supreme Creator of all worlds, of all Universes, of all life…

EVERYTHING!

Unless you’re an atheist.

(Please don’t ask “Who made him?”
God...not the atheist.)

***

He is the Numero Uno Super-Hero.

He’s got all of the Power and the Bling!

But God is not the problem---

MAN IS!

***

Some say that God left early.

He left us to ourselves.

But many more humans believe that He is listening to them when they talk to Him.

To the believers, He never departed.

And he sent His Son, anyway, so that He would always be “in the big picture”.

***

God is THE DIVINE SUPER COMPUTER, and so He is aware of what all life here and elsewhere is up to---

For good or bad.

BUT WAIT.

What about God’s mistakes?

“Holy Smoke!” you say.

“Sacrilege!” you say.

“God is Infallible” you exclaim.

HE MAKES NO MISTAKES.

O.K.

Then what are we to make of Hitler, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and the moronic males of the Republican Party?

***

If these people are not mistakes, then they are missteps.

One is forced to think about God’s reputation, but more so about the reputations of these morons whose minds appear to be inferior to those of bacteria.

(I know, bacteria don’t possess brains, but you get my drift.)

***

One moron, Richard Mourdock, Indiana’s Republican Senate nominee, must have really pissed God (and Mitt Romney) off when he said the following:

“I’ve struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize that life is that gift from God,” Mr. Mourdock said. “And even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen.”

I’ll say “Holy Smoke!”

***

Each human has his and her own will to say things.

 God doesn't intervene.

He doesn't put Himself between morons and their words.

For example, there’s another moron named Todd Akin.

Mr. Akin, a Congressman from Missouri, said, “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

One thing IS for certain:

  Akin and Mourdock are legitimate morons.

Amen.

 

IT'S ABOUT RENEWABLE RESOURCES!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TRUMP’S BOMBSHELL IS AN ITTY-BITTY FIRECRACKER

 

 

I began a list of very unlikely things that Donald Trump might divulge in his so-called bombshell.

 My apologies go to President Obama for making such absurd statements.

  It was Mr. Trump whose very weird pate I wanted to lambast.

 

1.                        Barack Obama is from the Orion galaxy.

 

2.                        Barack Obama is a centaur.

 

3.                        Barack Obama is a vampire.

 

4.                        Barack Obama is gay.

 

5.                        Barack Obama is a pothead.

 

 

6.                        Barack Obama has green blood.

 

7.                        All of the above

 

IT’S THE OIL STUPID!

NOTES WHILE WATCHING THE THIRD PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

 

WHEN BOTH CANDIDATES WALK ONTO THE STAGE, OBAMA APPLAUDS BACK AT THE AUDIENCE BUT ROMNEY DOESN’T

ROMNEY’S SH*T-FACED GRIN IS ANNOYING

ROMNEY IS WRITING SOMETHING WHILE LOOKING DOWN

OBAMA IS REITERATING THAT ROMNEY’S IDEAS ARE ALL OVER THE MAP

ROMNEY IS ACCUSING OBAMA OF ATTACKING HIM

“I’M NOT GOING TO WEAR ROSE-COLORED GLASSES ON RUSSIA”, SAID ROMNEY

ROMNEY’S GRIN AND HIS WATERY EYES ARE STILL ANNOYING…DOES HE HAVE TO GO TO THE BATHROOM?

OBAMA’S ANSWER ON SYRIA IS RATHER LONG AND WEAK

OBAMA’S RESPONSE ON EGYPT WAS ALSO LONG AND WINDING

ROMNEY DIDN’T DISAGREE WITH OBAMA’S HANDLING OF EGYPT, BUT ROMNEY SWITCHED TO THE ECONOMY ISSUE

ROMNEY: I’VE GO T A POLICY FOR THE FUTURE

“SYRIA IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR US”, SAID ROMNEY

ROMNEY’S ANSWER ON THE SYRIA QUESTION IS MORE SUCCINCT AND STRONGER

OBAMA’S SECOND RESPONSE ON SYRIA WAS MUCH BETTER AND MORE SPECIFIC

ROMNEY IS RAMBLING AND REPETITIVE

OBAMA IS GIVING SPECIFICS ON EDUCATION, AND CRITICIZING ROMNEY

ROMNEY IS PATTING HIMSELF ON THE BACK FOR HIS SUCCESS IN EDUCATION IN MASSACHUSETTS, AND OBAMA INTERJECTS

“WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO GET THE MONEY?” ASKS MODERATOR BOB SCHIEFFER (ON INCREASING THE BUDGET FOR THE MILITARY)

ROMNEY: COME ON OUR WEBSITE AND YOU’LL SEE HOW WE GET A BALANCED BUDGET.  I’LL GET RID OF OBAMACARE RIGHT AWAY.

OBAMA: ROMNEY’S MATH DOESN’T ADD UP.  OUR MILITARY SPENDING HAS GONE UP EVERY YEAR SINCE I’VE BEEN IN OFFICE.  HE WANTS TO SPEND ANOTHER TWO TRILLION DOLLARS ON MILITARY SPENDING THAT OUR MILITARY’S NOT ASKING FOR

ROMNEY IS COMPLAINING THAT OUR MILITARY IS TOO SMALL

OBAMA GIVES SOME ZINGERS AND FINGERS:

WELL GOVERNOR, WE ALSO HAVE FEWER HORSES AND BAYONETS

WE HAVE THESE THINGS CALLED AIRCRAFT CARRIERS WHERE PLANES LAND ON THEM

[LAUGHTER IN THE AUDIENCE]

WE HAVE THESE SHIPS THAT GO UNDERWATER---NUCLEAR SUBMARINES

BOTH CANDIDATES’ ANSWERS TO THE QUESTION ON IRAN WERE LONG, BUT OBAMA SEEMED MORE CONVINCING

ROMNEY IS SCARING US ABOUT IRAN, JIHAD, CHINA, NORTH KOREA, RUSSIA, AND TUMULT IN THE WORLD ETC. ETC.

OBAMA AGAIN SAYS THAT ROMNEY’S POSITIONS ON FOREIGN POLICY HAVE BEEN ALL OVER THE MAP

ANSWERS ABOUT CHINA AND IRAN WERE QUITE WORDY

OBAMA TELLS ROMNEY THAT HE KEEPS TRYING TO AIRBRUSH HISTORY

ROMNEY SAID (AGAIN): I LOVE TEACHERS

CLOSING STATEMENTS:

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH

 

IT’S THE OIL STUPID!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHAT I LEARNED FROM THE SECOND PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

 

Governor Mitt Romney had binders full of women.

Bill Clinton is not the only come-back kid.

Mitt Romney still walks like a chicken that has arthritis.

Barack Obama still has charisma and aplomb.

Mitt Romney came off as a spoiled, impatient, know-it-all rich kid.

At times I wanted boxing gloves to be put on both candidates.

Candy Crowley is a very good reporter-moderator.

 

 

IT'S THE OIL STUPID!

WHAT I LEARNED FROM THE VP DEBATE

I learned a lot from the Vice Presidential debate:

 

I learned that Paul Ryan can drink a lot of water, Joe Biden likes the word malarkey, and that Mitt Romney is a “car guy’.

 

Pundits (Don’t you love this word…or maybe you don’t?) criticized Joe Biden for being disrespectful because he laughed and interrupted Paul Ryan a lot.

 

But Joe wouldn’t allow Mr. Ryan to skitter like a chicken with its head cut off, spouting apocryphal opinions without challenge, as Mitt was able to do when he debated President Obama.

 

Paul Ryan did not get thrown under the bus, but he did get an airy ride atop Joe’s speedy and choleric car.

 

It was satisfying to see Joe Biden stand up to the boyish Paul Ryan.

 

The Vice President didn’t chortle or guffaw, but merely laughed in amusement at Paul Ryan’s overstated exposition.

 

 

IT’S THE OIL STUPID!
