Goodbye Yellow Brickhead

"Sir" Elton John is complaining about censorship in America, according to a recent article from the BBC. For those who don't know, Elton John lives in America and calls Atlanta home nowadays. He is tremendously rich. I've enjoyed his music over the years but I beg to differ with him on this occasion. In fact, I am now convinced that Elton John is full of s**t after reading this.

He says, "There's an atmosphere of fear in America right now that is deadly. Everyone is too career-conscious".

Well, that makes sense. I'm career-conscious too. The economy is going through a recovery and the unemployment rate is still high even though it is finally falling and the economy is improving. Even in normal times, I'm conscious of my job performance.

But then he goes on to say, "Stars are scared to speak out against war in Iraq because of "bullying tactics" used by the US government to hinder free speech.

I'm sorry. Did I miss something here? When did the government pass legislation censoring performers? Did I miss that part about black-cloaked FBI agents storming the stage and carrying off some singer to a secluded torture chamber somewhere? Elton John is obviously privy to certain acts of the US Government that I missed. The last time I checked, the blithering idiots in Hollywood and elsewhere were all howling away against the war on terror without FBI intervention.

To date, there have been exactly zero acts against performers by the US Government for taking an anti-war stance. As far as the Bush administration has been concerned these performers have been free to make complete asses of themselves if they so wished .. and many have.

But Elton continues, ".. voiced concern that it appeared acceptable to speak out if you were pro-Bush, using the example of country singer Toby Keith, but not if you were critical of the President, as in the case of country rock band, the Dixie Chicks.

Again, I ask Elton where the storm troopers are? What do you mean it is "not acceptable" to be critical of the President, like the Dixie Sluts Chicks? And why do you think Toby Keith's speaking out for President Bush is considered "acceptable"?

Aaaahhhhh, here we finally start to get to the bottom of the matter. It's not actually the government at all that is hurting your feelings is it, Elton? It's not the government that's not accepting your criticism either? It's the fans, isn't it? The people who buy your records and those of the Dixie Chicks and Toby Keith and all the others. You can't stand it when you and your ilk stand up and preach politics at your fans and they turn away, can you? Who the f**k do you think you are, "Sir" Elton? Do you think the people who buy concert tickets and record albums should just blindly buy whatever you spit out. If so, you can go directly to hell. Do not pass "GO". Do not collect $200.

Once again, an egotistical entertainer confuses the fans with the government. "Sir" Elton, you need to remember that it's a free market out there and if we don't like what you're selling we don't have to buy it, OK? There are 290 million people out there in this great country and not all of them go along with your agenda. In fact, most of them feel we did the right thing to defend ourselves after 9/11 and that we did the right thing to remove a dangerous dictator in Iraq. We believe the Bush administration did the right thing to make the world a safer place for people like you to make lots of money and enjoy a good life in safety.

So don't point the finger of blame at the government. George Bush probably couldn't care less how you feel about the war. Your job is to make music. His job is to protect and defend the people of this great nation. So why don't you and your friends make all the music you want to. Make anti-war songs if you wish. Help yourselves. The government won't stop you. Under our Constitution the government can't stop you even if they wanted to. The people who buy records and attend concerts, now that's another matter. We will spend our money where we damn well please and if we like what Toby Keith is offering and dislike what the Dixie Chicks are offering, that's just our choice .. and we make it freely without any intervention from the US Government .. or from you either. So piss off with your talk of censorship.

And while we're on the subject, "Sir" Elton .. we don't have an aristocracy here in America. We don't believe in lords and ladies and barons and such. If the Queen Of England knighted you, that's her business. So drop the "Sir" shit while you're here. Around here, we call people "sir" out of respect, not because they hold some bloody foreign title .. and after reading your remarks I sure as hell have no respect for you.

Wild, Wild Midwest

Now, here's an interesting story from my local newspaper entitled "Arming delivery drivers a tossup for pizzerias".

It seems that pizza delivery is a hazardous profession nowadays. There have been 33 robberies of pizza delivery guys and gals just since January here in Indianapolis. What the f**K? Those kids never carry more than a few bucks on them since most customers pay nowadays with check or credit card. I usually order my pizza from the local Pizza Hut at their web site. They charge my credit card and all I do is sign the receipt when the kid gets here (adding a tip of course). These kids are earning minimum wage and the least they deserve is a tip and a smile from the customer.

I'm kinda torn on this issue of these kids carrying guns though. They obviously need protection from the weirdos out there but at the same time most of the delivery drivers I encounter are young kids in their late teens or early twenties. I doubt any of them have had any training in gun handling and a gun in the hands of an amateur is a dangerous thing. In a panic, there is no telling who they might shoot .. maybe even themselves. That scares me.

These kids shouldn't have to carry guns. The police and the courts need to enforce the laws. My recommendation to these kids is: if you're attacked, give them your money and run away .. then get on the cell phone and wait for the police. My advice to the people who attack these kids: don't do it in my neighborhood because if the police don't get you, I will. Capische?

Question To Our Readers: Please weigh-in on this issue. I'm curious as to how you feel about arming pizza delivery drivers. And while you're at it, I have a question for any pizza company employees out there .. many years ago, I had a friend who managed a pizza store (with a national chain who shall remain un-named) and I was surprised to learn that they only paid their employees half of the current minimum wage at that time (1978). Their waitresses and drivers were expected to make up the balance in tips. All tips were put in the register and recorded. If an employee didn't make up the difference at the end of the year they were paid in full but terminated. Does anyone out there know if this is still practiced at any of the fast food joints? I'm curious.

Smoke And Mirrors

I saw this recent headline and article from Reuters and I immediately started celebrating ....
House Votes to Block Aid for Saudi Arabia

Thu Jul 15, 2004 11:40 PM ET

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Lawmakers cheered as the House of Representatives voted on Thursday to strip financial assistance for Saudi Arabia from a foreign aid bill because of criticism that the country has not been sufficiently cooperative in the U.S. war on terror.
I thought, "Wow! That's great. They finally decided to tell the Saudis where to shove it. Then I continued reading ....
The House voted 217-191 to remove $25,000 in the $19.4 billion 2005 foreign aid bill earmarked for Saudi Arabia. The funds were designated for military training but approval would have triggered millions of dollars in discounts on hardware and other military training, lawmakers said.
What the f**k, over? Who are these clowns kidding? They chopped $25,000 out of a $19,400,000,000 aid bill? What about the other billions for Egypt, Gaza, the West Bank and other assorted "friends of America" that they left in the bill?

I whipped out the Barking Moonbat Slide Rule and quickly figured out that our Congressmen had managed to clap themselves on the back for penalizing the ragheads a whopping .0000128% of the total allocation. Hell, it cost more than that just for the time these assholes spent arguing over the aid bill. Meanwhile, our "friends", the Saudis continue to make trillions selling us oil while they accept billions in aid bribes from our government.

Aren't you about sick and f**king tired of this s**t? I damned sure am! What makes it so bad is that the Amendment to the Appropriations Bill described above was passed with a majority of Democrats voting for it and a majority of Republican voting against it. I'll bet you the Dummycraps will now start bragging about how they're really sticking it to the Saudis. What a bunch of fucktards!!

Go take a look at HR.4818, the House Foreign Appropriations Bill for yourself. Especially, take a peek at the various amendments proposed and who voted for what. Get educated .... then get mad as hell.

Kentucky Moonbat

California, New York and Taxachusetts may brag about their Moonbats and exhibit them publicly on a regular basis .... but we think that when it comes to real Barking Moonbats no state can compete with Kentucky. Fortunately, the Barking Moonbats in Kentucky are mostly harmless .... like this lovely young lady who is shown demonstating her deep, abiding respect for the local police in Paducah. If only Martha Stewart had behaved like this ....

Now They’re Really Scared

Al-Jazeera sneaked a reporter close to Eglin AFB in Florida to get the dope on the USAF's newest "Bunker Buster" bomb. It's a 30,000 lb. monster called MOP (Massive Ordinance Penetrator).

Al-Jazeera says the new bomb is one-third larger than MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs), previously used by the USAF to ferret out weasels who are dug in (like Al-Jazeera).

What Al-Jazeera doesn't know is the secret name of the new bomb .... MILOAB (Mother-In-Law Of All Bombs) - it not only blows your ass up but it never goes away either.

Barking Moonbat Of The Week Award

Julian Bond

"They use our troops for photo ops while cutting veterans’ benefits and combat pay.

They operate a perpetual motion attack machine and squeal like stuck pigs if you answer back. Overdosed on testosterone, they’ve descended into the very vulgarity they say they want to keep off the airwaves. They believe in the politics of fear; we believe in the politics of hope. Now they want to write bigotry back into the Constitution; they want to make one group of Americans outsiders to our common heritage.

They want to do what has never been done before – to amend the Constitution to create a group of second-class citizens. Our Constitution is the last hope of freedom; it cannot become a carrier of prejudice and intolerance. And what about the opposition party? Too often they’re not an opposition; they’re an amen corner. With some notable exceptions, they have been absent without leave from this battle for America’s soul.

When one party is shameless, the other party cannot afford to be spineless"
.


After making all these statements about the Bush administration (and many more even worse), Mr. Bond and the NAACP were amazed that President Bush declined to speak at the organization's convention. Go figure.

Awarded To:
Julian Bond

Daily Dose

Quote Of The Day

"My Grandmother is over eighty and still doesn't need glasses. Drinks right out of the bottle."
-- Henny Youngman (1906 - 1998)


On This Day In History

July 17, 1955 - Disneyland Opens
Disneyland, Walt Disney's metropolis of nostalgia, fantasy, and futurism, opens on July 17, 1955. The $17 million theme park was built on 160 acres of former orange groves in Anaheim, California, and soon brought in staggering profits. Today, Disneyland hosts more than 14 million visitors a year, who spend close to $3 billion.

In the early 1950s, Walt Disney began designing a huge amusement park to be built near Los Angeles. He intended Disneyland to have educational as well as amusement value and to entertain adults and their children. Land was bought in the farming community of Anaheim, about 25 miles southeast of Los Angeles, and construction began in 1954. In the summer of 1955, special invitations were sent out for the opening of Disneyland on July 17. Unfortunately, the pass was counterfeited and thousands of uninvited people were admitted into Disneyland on opening day. The park was not ready for the public: food and drink ran out, a women's high-heel shoe got stuck in the wet asphalt of Main Street USA, and the Mark Twain Steamboat nearly capsized from too many passengers.

Disneyland soon recovered, however, and attractions such as the Castle, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Snow White's Adventures, Space Station X-1, Jungle Cruise, and Stage Coach drew countless children and their parents. Special events and the continual building of new state-of-the-art attractions encouraged them to visit again.



Today's Birthdays

Elbridge Gerry, American statesman, Vice President of the United States (1744)
John Jacob Astor, American merchant (1763)
Donald Sutherland, American Canuckistani actor (1934)



Extra Credit

Word Of The Day: "gerrymander"
Elbridge Gerry was elected governor of Massachusetts in 1810 and reelected in 1811. In his second term his party, the Jeffersonians, desiring to retain their control of the state, rearranged the election districts in their favor in a grotesque salamander-like shape, a political maneuver then named by his opponents and since known as a gerrymander (from his name and salamander). Gerry was defeated for reelection in 1812, but he was immediately nominated by the Jeffersonians for Vice President on the ticket with James Madison, and he was elected.

The Truth? You Can’t Handle The Truth ….

The nice thing about the blogosphere is that you can't get away with shit around here. Somebody will fact-check your ass in a heart-beat. Vilmar and I know that and we strive to cross-check everything we post here. Occasionally, we slip up but the nice part is that some asshole nice person always (without exception) calls our hand and we correct it.

You want honesty and truth? It's here in the blogosphere, baby. We aren't allowed to get away with a damned thing.

And Vilmar and I both like it that way. Thank you very much. Keep on our ass. We have no room for bullshit here.

And while we're on the subject, check out this site that covers all bullshit in political ads. They are supposedly non-partisan .... but we'll keep checking on their ass occasionally to make sure they stay that way.

NAACP Representatives To The Democratic Convention

Whoopi Goldberg has volunteered to be the official NAACP (National Association Of Angry Crazy People) representative to the Democratic National Convention. Shown below in this time-lapse photography, Ms. Goldberg gets herself into character worked up to deliver her speech .... reportedly, it took twelve bottles of "Mad-Dog 20-20" to complete the transition.




Also on the speaking agenda from the NAACP is Michael Moron (as soon as he finishes his pizza) ....



And finally, the NAACP's keynote speaker will be none other than GORZILLA himself ....

SO WHAT!!!

This one is GREAT (if true!)

I read this and think, "And, yeah?!?! What did he do wrong? Furthermore, so fucking what?!?!"

Here's what's alleged to have happened: The new Iraqi PM (Allawi) was on a tour and behind a security complex building were 7 terrorist suspects all non-nationals, (of course, the media calls them insurgents!) with hands tied, blindfolded and up against a wall.

The Interior Minister was there and that morning 4 of his people were killed in an ambush. Wanting vengeance, the IM said to the PM he wanted those guys dead on the spot.

The PM also said he wanted to send a clear message to his police force on dealing with terrorists.

Next thing you know he's got his pistol whipped out and shoots the fuckers. Six died. The other is near death. BRAVO!! ENCORE!!!

Now, you tell me. What the hell is wrong with that? It's about time and something we, as Americans, can not do.

Let's take this to the next level. Wouldn't it be lovely if President Bush or Donald Rumsfeld would pack some heat and the next time they came across Michael Moore or Squeezy Perfumey or any other America hating or race baiting asshole on the left they'd just pull out their pistol and shot them right between the eyes? Nothing like a little summary execution to set an example!


Go on, World Court, try and do something about it. Continue to prove to the rest of us how ineffectual and impotent you are.

BWAH HA HA HA!!!

Jailhouse Rock

Martha Stewart was sentenced just minutes ago. Five months in federal prison, five months of house arrest and two years of probation. Oh, and she must pay a fine of $30,000. Martha left the courthouse in her SUV after the sentencing when the judge postponed action on the decision, pending appeal.

Yes, you heard that right. Even after this "light slap on the wrist", she plans to appeal.

Memo To Martha: Just do your 150 days in a nice little country club prison then spend the next 150 days writing a book about your prison time and then spend the next two years making millions off the book.

Equal Justice Under The Law? Heh-heh .... yeah, right.

K-Mart is offering 25% off on all Martha Stewart Living products this week. Blue light special in aisle 6 .... or was that cell block 9?




Recommended Reading For Martha (thanks to Gary):

More Media Bias

Another from Taranto and this one deals with a developer and fund raiser in NJ who was charged with conspiracy, obstruction of justice and interstate promotion of prostitution.

As far as I am concerned this is another example of media bias at work. Go ahead, right click on the link and have it open into a new window. Now before you read it, guess how far down into the article you have to go to determine his political affiliation?

I'll save you the effort: 13 paragraphs!!! And, OBTW, he is a Dummycrap. SURPRISE!!!!!

Now, assume the perp was a Republican? Any bets that it would NOT be front page, above the fold headlines?

Doesn't that just piss you off?

You can read Best of the Web here.
