Glenn Beck --- Belated Whiner Extraordinairre. . . .

I'm starting to get real, real tired of this asshole Glenn Beck. Real, real tired. Where was the worry and oversight from this putrid jackass the past 8 years while the Bush Crime Family was looting the country and putting a bunch of institutional white collar criminals in charge of the hen-house? Beck is embarrassingly late to the table in whining about the horrid state of the nation and it's increasingly obvious with every one of his stupid shows. Here's the unvarnished truth - Beck's ideology and his political party got the ever-living shit kicked out of them in the last election and he and the other GOP assclowns just can't get over it. And that goes for his mindless drone fans/followers or whatever you want to call people who fall for his inane Droopy Dog "woe is me" shtick. All these people can just go fuck themselves as far as I'm concerned. Really.

Friday M-Vloggin -- with The Tokens

"The Lion Sleeps Tonight":

This song came out in 1961, a year before I was born. I first heard it when I was around 8 or 9 years old I think and I thought it was nothing short of magical sounding. Being the hopeless and consummate daydreamer that I am, I could listen to this song and close my eyes and imagine myself romping through the jungle with the beautifal flora & fauna surrounding me along with all the exotic animals, especially of course, the king of the jungle himself -- the "Mighty Lion". Now and then when the madness and stress of life's daily routine starts getting me down, I pop this song on the I-pod and crank it thru my stereo speakers -- and it instantly brings a smile to my face and a sense of soothing calm to my troubled soul. Enjoy.

Let The Teabagging Begin! Conservative Style! Lol!




I wonder where these "tea-bagging" clowns were from 2000-2006 while Bush and his GOP enablers (during which time they controlled all 3 branches of 'gubmint') were burglarizing the treasury and handing over our tax dollar booty to their wealthy benefactors? The Bush "tax cuts" represented the largest transfer of wealth in such a short period of time in this country's history. The poor got shit on as they usually do and the middle-class stagnated and also lost ground. Meanwhile, the richest 1% of Americans laughed their sterling-plated asses off all the way to the bank (Swiss Banks that is). Combine that wholesale looting with the obscene expenditures associated with the Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld great Iraq sandbox adventure (approaching $1 trillion) and their myopic support of Wall Street deregulation and you've got the perfect mixture for what we have today -- which is a crumbling empire.

But just try to get one of these tea-bag rubes to acknowledge the colossal fuckuppery & mis-management of the country's affairs by their GOP heroes and the only answer you'll get in return is mindlessly rabid screeching about Obama being a Muslim and Obama's birth certificate is fake! Sigh . . .

These people truly are deserving of ridicule of the most sarcastic sort and this video does a pretty good job of doing just that.

Mr. Stewart --- Take It Away . . .

Jon Stewart spanks the right-wingers and the stooge media for bizarrely claiming that the Obama administration's 4% military budget INCREASE actually equates to "drastic cuts", "takes an axe to", "steep budget cuts", and "huge slashes". And the corporate-whore media wonders why nobody's buying their tainted product anymore.

Jon Stewart -vs- Wingnuttia . . . Oh What a Mismatch

This is why the right wingers get their knickers in a knot over Jon Stewart. They are simply unable to combat his truth and logic infused humor. In this clip Stewart artfully slices and dices the wingnut tantrum parade that's been occurring since Barack Obama was elected President and taken on the mantle of the leader of the greatest nation in the world.

America's #1 Source of Misinformation Strikes Again . . .

One of the Fox News bimbo bobble-heads, Gretchen Carlson, outright lies to their viewers:

Carlson falsely claimed that "Social Security [is] already bankrupt." In fact, Social Security will be able to pay full benefits until 2041, after which it will be able to cover 78 percent of scheduled benefits, according to the 2008 Social Security trustees' report.

Once again -- I state to my detractors -- I don't despise Fox for their conservative bent. I don't wish to deny them their free speech rights at all. I despise them because they misuse the public airwaves to consistently spread disinformation in their zeal to be a propaganda arm of the right-wing of the Republican party, and they then have the nerve to run around beating their chests and bleating about how "Fair and Balanced" they are. It's as simple as that.
