Florida Primary 2012 Likely To Shift GOP Candidates' Focus To Environment

With Newt, an Amphibian Presidency will replace the Bald Eagle with the Red Eyed Tree Frog as the national symbol. Swimming lessons will be mandatory in all schools across the nation. Sushi will be banned. Popular baby names will include Salamander for girls and Cray for boys. It will add new meaning when we describe our economy as "underwate­r." Open marriages will be legal for spawning purposes only. Gay aquatic life will not be recognized­. And Congress will run on a drip irrigation policy - wait, it already does!

Space Debris: When Will We Clean Up Our Act? (VIDEO)

Proof why ET does not come here - any advanced civilizati­on does not swim in its own filth. Even if ET wanted to eat us, one look at the filth we wallow in both in orbit and on Terra Firma should convince them of our unsanitary nutritious value. I have no doubt somewhere we are on an ET blacklist!

Robert Redford Hits Mitt Romney, Conservatives In Sundance Speech

How was this just targeted at Romney? "...debate­s going on, this mushroom cloud of ego hovering over everybody,­" Redford said" He is right about it all being ego. I say all candidates (all sides) should have to go to school for this, televised weekly like a reality show. The audience votes. Simulation­s of war, economy, diplomacy, general knowledge. Weed 'em out! Most audience vote = President. 2nd place = VP! At least we get spared months of BS! Survivor meets Politics. Networks would love it!

BACK IN BLACK, SOMETHING JUST 1% OF AMERICANS CAN SAY.

I just love getting PRE-APPROVED, I AM SPECIAL notices from idiotic financial institutions. Today it is the BLACKCARD from VISA, made of carbon composite and the mailing a thick, slick, velvety teaser that drips opulence and flavor for the feeble minded.


Just 1% of US residents are offered this ultra credit card.

That means, only 1% of Americans are stupid enough to think this is a great deal. 14.99% APR and a whopper of an annual fee.


Yes, you can enjoy airport lounges everywhere for this $495 annual fee credit card that will melt a hole in my cheap faux wallet.

Thank you VISA BLACKCARD for my laugh of the evening. We now return to our regular delusional programming.

Class Conflict Awareness Rose Significantly From 2009 To 2011: Report

While it may appear that cultural class difference­s are more predominan­t, in my opinion the major difference­s which will pervade this country will be the economic ones that transcend skin color.



We will have a few elite rich and the rest of us will be the labor pool. When you look at the landscape of the country, all-the-sa­me malls and strip centers across the land, you quickly realize that there is no need to leave your turf as it looks just the same as the next, which is good because you cannot afford to leave it anyway. The uniformity of the "experienc­e" is quite well rooted.



Anyone wanting a glimpse at the future need only watch any science fiction movie out there. They all resonate with the urban grit of the mass of humanity oppressed by corporate domination while a puppet government tries to convince you that all is still within the American Dream. Blue pill or red pill - you can choose but they are both the same.

SOMETHING OBVIOUS, SOMETHING TRUE

It ought to be obvious, but is not. It ought to be true, but is not so easily decided. These are two statements that seem that've no place in our society, in this age of indecision, confusion, mixed sentiment and bias. What is right and wrong? There is no answer because opponents and proponents each push an agenda that leaves no directly tangible answer, at least not on a societal level. Take abortion as an example. Pro-life is absolute, Pro-choice is absolute. Even cases where a pregnancy arose from rape garners much debate on the subject of aborting the resulting fetus. Is it alive? When does life begin? Should a victim of rape have to carry the resulting baby to term? What is fair? What is right? Without the perspective of objectivity one cannot make a rational decision because subjectively everyone is right and wrong at the same time. What is the baby born grows up to be a beloved actress on par with say Meryl Streep? What if the genes of the rapist contaminate the nature of the baby? How would you know? And what of faith? Would God forgive an abortion or expect the faithful to at least carry it to term and give it up for adoption? I remember in the movie "Ghandi" when during the civil conflict between Muslims and Hindus, a Hindu man approaches the now starving, anti-war fasting Ghandi to confess his sin of killing the parents of a small Muslim boy and how God will condemn him to Hell. Ghandi tells him "I know a ways out of Hell," and says he must raise the boy as his own, however he must raise him as a Muslim, not as a Hindu. We like to say that things are, or should be, obvious, but to whom? Like truth, we look for universal truths in a world where only subjective truths hold as valid. The problem is that we cannot run society on subjective truths and as a result we find disappointment when such obvious truths like the guilt or innocence of a prisoner is at stake. We often are in dismay as a contrary verdict is pronounced, shaking our faith in a legal system which seems arbitrary at times despite its complexity. And even the Declaration of Independence states " We hold these truths to be self-evident..." when in fact there are so many Concstitutional Ammendments to imply that those truths may not have been so evident after all. And finally, at the end of the day, when we face our maker, or nothing at all, depending upon what you believe, we may learn that there were no truths, only pieces of enlightenment, and only faith to interpret and determine a subjective fate, a way to govern our own lives rather than wishing a standardized set of rules to be imposed in society as a whole. We live in the "...land of the free and the home of the brave," only to find that last week the President signed into law an act that allows for unlimited detention of Americans merely on suspicion of terrorism, and without cause or due process of law. That is hardly based on Democracy, although is now obviously true. Sadly. MisterWriter

BIG BROTHER IS FEEDING YOU

I was reading the back of the dog food bag, all fine print save for a few bold headlines promising the best of canine nutrition and backed by all kinds of scientific data, when I realized that dog food or people food, we are all subject to the same commercial brainwashing.

Our food promises health, low fat, low sugar, low salt, while really offering low value filled with artifical nutrition. How sad is it that we have to fortify everything? Milk fortified with Vitamin D. Sounds good but for the fact that the quantity of Vitamin D is negligible, not unlike the false promises of low fat and low sugar, usually resulting in the "other" being added; low fat means it is high in sugar while low sugar means it is high in fat. You cannot win.

So when will our government start sending us home with large bags of Soylent Green-like pellets that will satisfy our basic needs ensuring that no American goes hungry? How long before the information that is disclosed on labels proves to be so much a fairy tale, unregulated by an overburdened and under funded FDA that is more a pawn for the pharmaceutical company than it is a true regulatory body? After all, how many drugs, after a trial of a few hundred people, are sold to the millions as beneficial only to be yanked after a few hundred deaths occur? Too frequently, I am afraid to say. The general public have become the guinea-pigs for the drug industry. Well, I guess we all wanted them to stop using animals!

I watched the latest Apes movie - Rise of the Planet of the Apes and frankly I was rooting for the apes. We have empowered ourselves with the God cloak that we frequently entertain delusions of grandeur wrapped up in science, with too few safeguards and a willingness to deal with consequences after the fact. And this is where the notion of food pellets returns.

We always hear how lucky we are to live in America, and to a large degree that is true. America has always been the light of promise, even though these days, like the Internet, it offers the best and the worst all wrapped up in the same box. We have the weirdest of the weird, the most depraved of the depraved, yet fight an idealistic fight, such as the drug war where we struggle to catch violent multi-nationals (including Americans), only to see them continue to operate from within the jails, and, after getting a "fair shake" in the American judicial system, released, deported, or more simply, back in business despite the body count of innocents left behind to pick up the pieces.

With the vast number of people inhabiting this planet it is foolish to think that the liberties we had, and long for; the personal freedoms and the unbridled dreams of a sound financial future for our children, can continue without an ever increasing cost.

Just the other day President Obama signed a controversial piece of legislation which, while intended for aiding in the capture of terrorists, allows for American citizens to be arrested and detained for an unlimited period of time without charge. Visit http://alturl.com/jznpr for more on that.

Like the dog food, it is all DESIGNED to be good for us. Eaten properly, it will supply an adequate amount of nutrition to sustain our bodies while the vast media conglomerate develops new brain numbing shows like "The Kardashians" to keep us entertained and away from literate investigations into what is really happening.

Like the fish in the pan of water slowly heated, we swim around, noting the odd weather patterns, noting the headline news of global tensions that could, at any minute, snap into a nuclear exchange between two nations wishing to obliterate each other, and there are many such nations, many loose nukes, and our foreign policy has shown that diplomacy now means turning a blind eye, advice we would never give a parent on raising their children. Then again, we are seeing legislation about how we are to raise our children as well.

George Orwell was so off the mark.

"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free," Thomas Jefferson wrote, "in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be."

And that was not written on the bag of dog food. Eat well, my friends.

TALK ABOUT GETTING FRACKED!

Yes, the idea of sucking out the gas and replacing it with brine is akin to swapping land for beads with the native Americans; somewhere it comes back to bite you, or in this case, to shake you up. I smell lawsuit here! Anyone else smell lawsuit? Don’t worry – trust them – they know what they are doing!
