The Homeland is a Ford Pinto

Posted in News, politics, environment, journalism, The Homeland, economy, media, change, processed cheese intellect, apathy with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 26, 2012 by lens1

Superheroes come in so many forms, that it’s hard for us to distinguish the K Street lobbyists from the Midwestern sales-rep
for Lockheed Martin.

Which is why Ralph Nader frightens progressive Democrats…far more than he bothers repressive Teabangers.

And that, my fair-weather Twitter friends…is what we in the business of pointing shit out call…a clue.

Ralph is no superhero.  On this, the Daily KOS and I can agree.  To me, Ralph is just a pissed off smart guy – who’d like us to get paid what we’re worth.  If you’re going to give your life to the Corporatocracy, why not get a few paid days off and…take a deep breath here…some Goddamned affordable health-scare?

Ralph once saved us from the Ford Motor Company and their pre-Homelandian car of exploding death called, the Pinto.  As far as I can recall…we did not invade Dearborn, Michigan’s Ford plant and accuse it of selling us Cars of Mass Destruction.  We just abandoned and then decimated the Detroit area instead.

See Michael Moore’s GM and it’s Corvair for more.

Ralph helped usher in the era of seat belts, clean water and air that didn’t necessarily kill us immediately.
See the Monsanto corn in your grocers freezer or Kaiser Aluminum for more.

Ralph also warned us about the crime wave called the Reagan Savings and Loan Disaster.  That bailout cost us almost $70 billion dollars!  Which is why the even bigger Bush/Obama bailouts of today…seem so insignificant.
For more to ignore, see the Pentagon, Homeland Security and any country with brown-skinned humans in it.  Or for less…see Reagan’s government cheese.

Why does Ralph hate our freedom to die from fake food, cars of mass destruction and GE’s Fukushima reactors?  I don’t know.  But I do know that we like flammable drinking water just as much as the Canadian’s do!

Sure both Ralph and Canada know that most water flows south.  Yes…Ralph laughed at Al Gore’s locked box.  Yes…Karl Rove did too.  But Ralph had a point…Karl should be in the Hague.  Big difference.

For more on why progressive Twitter followers don’t read my tweets…read just above.

For more on why the Corporatocracy do enjoy my Tweets…read just above, think slavery and then ponder why it is that Iraq doesn’t have a Courtney Stodden…or running water, or sewage treatment plants.

The homeland – unsafe at all speeds?
According to Petraeus’s Napolitano,
um sure.  Yeah – why not.

Factual Fiction is Frictional Art

Posted in apathy, change, elections, journalism, media, News, politics, The Homeland, Washington State Blogs with tags , , , , , , , , , , on January 25, 2012 by lens1

One of my favorite pretend poets was a fictional DJ who lived in a fictional Alaskan town.  He worked at a fictional radio station that was owned by a fictional old-school conservative – who coveted an 18-year-old Canadian girl.

Sure fictional art can imitate life.

Nancy Pelosi just sent me an email in which she begged for money – for a man who has already raised about $70 million dollars.  Nancy Pelosi works in a House – where her party enjoyed the majority of two Houses – during the frequently forgotten…110th Congress.

The Bush was not impeached – yet Clinton’s penis was.
Factual fiction?  Or frictional art?

Dennis Kucinich – one of the few Democrats known to exist in this sector of the universe…recently said:  “One of the biggest stumbling blocks to America’s economic recovery is corporations can legally buy elections and then influence policies which move millions of jobs out of America, which escape taxation by off shoring profits, which cash in on wars, which press military industrial spending through the roof. ”

Obviously Costco was right.  Dennis is nuts.

Inequality has always been part of the fabric of the Homeland.  Skin color, gender, religion, sexual and financial orientation…determine how, where and into whom, one might get to plant their phallic stick of freedom.  This does require friction, but like Pelosi’s email, fundraising from the Patriot Acted…is full of factual fiction.

As Mother Jones is attempting to show us, ‘it’s who has the money stupid‘.  Great information can be had in that article of graphs, but, sadly, most of us are graph retarded.  We’ll only spend a fraction of a second with those…before we resume searching for funny katz and photos of Miley Cyrus…who somehow always knows…just when to not wear a bra.

Making Billy Ray Cyrus proud is obviously – really quite easy.  Which when you think about it…Miley is like us and Billy Ray is like “them”.  We’ll do and or buy anything, just to ignore the horrible parenting skills of our fictional filled Homeland.

Truths of a painful nature are like clockwork.
Is it factual fiction?
Or just frictional art?

Fictional towns are like any email from a politician…
the chaos is scripted – the factual fiction is implied.

Common Sense Called

Posted in apathy, change, elections, environment, journalism, media, News, The Homeland, Washington State Blogs with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 24, 2012 by lens1

While we were out, common sense called us.  She’s left several messages, but we’re not really big on returning the calls of common sense.  We will however, always return the calls of ‘absolutely no basis in reality’.  Which makes sense.

Our old friend common sense last tried to reach us, just before Saddam’s non-existent Anthrax didn’t attack anything.  After the first declared victory in Iraq, common sense pretty much just said fuck it…and stopped calling.

Common sense had been trying to reach us for at least 160 years.  She used to try and reach us via telegraph, the U.S. Mail and or through our God given moral compasses.  Technology failed her then, and of course, we’ve never really had any use for compasses of morality.

Sadly, common sense was not only ignored, but she was brutally attacked by men like JP Morgan, Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie.  Today, Al Roker, the Koch brothers and the camp cook at the Bohemian Grove…have taken over where Morgan, Rockefeller, Carnegie and our moral compasses left off.

This is why millions of common sense free Homelandians – do fret about President Obama’s hidden Muslim agenda.  This is also why millions of us also ignore Newt Romney’s hidden Muslim agenda – GMO laden foodstuffs – Homeland Security’s affordable drones and British Petroleum’s Fukushima.

Yeah – Al Roker and the camp cook at the Bohemian Grove are that good.  The Koch’s on the other hand, just sleep a lot and watch an unhealthy amount of Green Acres.

It’s an election year, which means that we the Patriot Acted are even slower witted than usual.  We have a bottomless pit of cash on hand, as long as it’s spent on war, reelection, bailouts and prosecuting humans who keep trying to remind us of our old friend common sense.

In the end, no fornicating/magic long-underwear wearing challenger will defeat President Obama.  For now, it’s Obama’s pretend throne to occupy, because Al Roker says so.

Maintaining an empire isn’t easy.  It takes liars, failed Pentagon strategy after failed Pentagon tragedy, profit and…millions of Patriot Acted party members – Tebowing their way to a shared oblivion.

Common sense always had plenty of quarters to get a hold of us.
I think she stopped calling us for a reason.

The Gift of Oligarchy Dental

Posted in News, politics, seattle, Washington State, Northwest Politics, journalism, The Homeland, media, change, apathy with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on January 23, 2012 by lens1

As the branches of Glenn Beck’s psychosis battle the looming corporatocracy for daylight…I’m left wondering, why can’t we get some sort of awesome socialist dental care from the current Oligarchy?

Quick.  What’s more frightening to 97% of We the Patriot Acted?  12 brown-skinned, wrong religion practicing humans who live in far away lands…who would find it quite difficult to invade the Homeland, if it were not for the assistance of your CIA, DIA or the bomb offering FBI?  Or…funding health care, jobs and education instead of the endless Obama wars for Boeing? 

The answer?  Gay marriage, birth control and the liberal media elite!

This is just part of the reason we stopped cutting down so many trees…because plastic bags are made out of oil.  Like Iraq.  Or Iran.

Some day the Seattle Times will draw our attention to our dysfunction.  Until then, we’ll have to concern ourselves with the millions of dollars spent to house and lawyer-up our sex offenders.

The Times aren’t trying to draw your attention to the trillions of dollars wasted by Bush and Obama – because that’s not a “local issue”.  It’s also not journalism.  To ponder such things, is just a waste of our beautiful minds.   But so is pretending that forecasting your weather is a skill.

This is why the internet must die.
It’s not the porn that you watch that matters -
it’s who can keep any truthiness from escaping that counts.

When the Seattle Times puts together yet another – Pulitzer Prize contending series of articles about expensive state/county government programs…one might consider the trillions of lost dollars said articles will never point out.  Besides, worrying about Newt’s wandering penis is so much more entertaining.

At this point, the simple gift of an Oligarchy dental plan for some of us – would probably shut most of us up.

See the Seattle Times for more.

Change is Funny

Posted in apathy, change, economy, environment, journalism, media, News, politics, processed cheese intellect, The Homeland with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 21, 2012 by lens1

It’s 2012.  If you’re still convinced that the evildoing Teabangers of Congress are blocking every earth ending/Bush-like move of the president, then you’re as conservative as Obama’s Bagram.

It’s like 1963.  If you’re convinced that the president’s fiscal, Homeland and foreign Bush-like policies are so frighteningly liberal – that Jesus himself has stopped talking to Sheriff Arpaio…then you’re as conservative as Obama’s Guantanamo.

Change is funny isn’t it?

We can be so caught up in the travels and work ethic of Jim Harbaugh – that we’d ignore the fingerless glove of Raytheon that’s currently shoved up our asses of freedom…as we patiently wait for the thick fingers of Wall Street.

Change sure seems like an anal probing from Lockheed Martin.

Just today – I hear that Chuck Norris has endorsed the many ex-wives of the Newt.

That sure reeks.  It reeks of change.

Just today – I see yet another racist cop beating an elderly disabled man…because he was black.  That reeks.  It reeks of Change.

The CIA was helping the NYPD spy upon activists, humans of color and anyone they damn well felt like.  That smells like a crime – with just a smear-age of the GEO Group thrown in for profit.  That’s change.  Change that Joshua Holland does ignore.

Change is Herman Cain singing at a Colbert campaign stop.  That’s funny.  It’s sad.  That’s change.

Teabaggers are incensed with the liberal change in direction the Homeland has taken. Democrats are fighting mad that anyone has noticed what never-ending liberal wars actually look like.  That, that my friends…is change.

Hey check it out! Snooki looks great without make-up, which is weird, because so does Jim Harbaugh.  That’s distracting.  That’s news.

A President Palin and Vice President Busta Rhymes would be different…but there still wouldn’t be much change.

Change is funny.  Funny is the change.

It’s just another drone war day in the Homeland, where Bank of America is still free, and if SOPA were up and behaving like the Patriot Act…Justin Beiber would be at Guantanamo?

I don’t know what Kenneth Rapoza is baking into his brownies over at Forbes, but I’d trade Beiber’s freedom for Leonard Peltier’s any day.

Mentioning Peltier’s freedom over Beiber’s, reminds me of some of the terms that are searched for here at the V-Lens.  Oh sure the usual “Sarah Palin nipples + naked” searches never go away…but it’s the various self-searching agencies of the homeland securing apparatus – constantly searching here for themselves that makes me proud.

As Rick’s santorum has discovered, self-searching the internet for references to yourself, can bring about unintended consequences.

I’m not saying that Rick’s frothy santorum is to blame for the state of our Homeland State…but where there’s frothy santorum, there’s probably quite a few blog searching dorks with top-secret clearances.  So make of that what you will.

Let’s go to the short list of recent self-searching searches at the V-Lens!  Walk this way…

  • The glorious Department of Homeland Security searched for – bcp3.cbp.dhs.gov
  • The far less glorious FBI searched for -  153.31.113.20
  • Boeing at Andrews AFB – self-searching
  •  Institute For Defense Analyses – who knows!
  • ‘Pretend’ Twitter users like @oaken123 – just fishing
  • The hard-working humans at Booze Allen Hamilton – angry fishing
  • A human from I Can Has Cheezeburger? – has never searched here for anything

If we are to take anything away from my legions of ‘lolcats’ who have never been here, it’s gotta be – thank Romney’s God! that Mitt lived in the real streets!!

I think it was Einstein that once said: Only two things are real, pornography and lies, and I’m lying about the former.
Okay, sorry.  That was actually me.

SOPA de Ponzi – Patriot

Posted in News, politics, impeachment, journalism, The Homeland, economy, media, change, processed cheese intellect, apathy with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 19, 2012 by lens1

Soup is nice on a plate – but it’s far better in a bowl.

In the Homeland our soup is served up on plates.
We then eat the soup with forks, because bleeped F-bombs on the teevee…are at least as scary as the Army Anthrax Attacks.

Our soup-filled plates are provided to us by our Constitution, which is interpreted by our K Street Congress…as the document by which the forks can be dispersed amongst us.

To ensure that we the people have a tough time getting a spoon – to better eat the soup from our plates…God did create Wolf Blitzer.

Wolf tells us what we need to know about K Street owned politicians, Iran and from where we can find cheaper forks.

After Wolf – the plates become paper – the forks become straws.  Straws with more than two holes.

Some of us are sick of eating our soup from a plate.  Forks are for stabbing at meat – they’re not for forking at air.

This is why we were given Ronald Reagan.  Ronnie was the new Nixon, while Nixon was more alert than George W. Bush.  Dubya was the demon seed of his idiot father, who both it turns out…wanted to be like Clinton.  President Obama is no Bill Clinton…but he does play a mean
Ronald Reagan.

When too many of us ask: “how it is that we have trillions for never-ending Boeing wars, Wall Street and the Czar Petraeus” – “but none for education, health care, jobs and sewage treatment plants?” – They do create the Patriot Acts.

When too many of us tire of eating soup from paper plates…they will create Vietghanistan, Iran and then outlaw the plates.

When we tire of the forks, the hole filled straws and Wolf Blitzer’s stenography…they do create Obama’s NDAA, the SOPA, and then imprison you for smoking the “dopa”.

Spoons and bowls – are for those who don’t even like our soup.

Take their spoons.  Steal their bowls.
Ignore the Blitzer.
Eat.

Fling It

Posted in activism, change, economy, impeachment, journalism, media, News, politics, The Homeland, Washington State Blogs with tags , , , , , , , , , , on January 17, 2012 by lens1

The pretend poet Chris Stevens once said: “it’s not the thing you fling, but the fling itself.”

Tomorrow this post and blog will be blacked out.  The day after tomorrow, the Pentagon, Wall Street, K Street, Boeing and Lockheed Martin…will not.

Having been to many a protest, I know that marching in circles with incorrectly “spelt” signs…can garner more attention than the crimes of Oliver North.

So here’s to another protest.

May it hit em’ in the profit zone on Wednesday -
may it then jar your Patriot Acted memory on Thursday.
Karl Rove is free to walk amongst us -
with the National Defense Authorization Act -
you just might – not.

Intellectualizing the Snowgasm

Posted in News, politics, activism, journalism, elections, The Homeland, economy, media, apathy, Washington State Blogs with tags , , , , , , , , , , on January 17, 2012 by lens1

First they ignore you.
Then they came for the marijuana smokers
and I didn’t speak out because I was a drinker.

Then they laugh at you.
Soon after, they came for the Spanish Speakers
and I didn’t speak out because we’d already come for the Japanese.

Then they fight you.
And then they came for the Occupiers, the Democrats and the Republicans. I didn’t speak out because I was unemployed, uneducated and something happened just before
the Army Anthrax Attacks.

Then they spied on everyone, expanded the never-ending wars on everything and our food too.
I didn’t speak out
because Obama…
was a…
Democrat.

Then they came for me, but it was too late…because we’d been co-opted long before we even knew what being co-opted was.
And besides, the media was pretty concerned about the snow.
But not much else.

And then we won.
And I’ll be damned if it didn’t snow.
