Axis of Healthcare
If the ‘healthscare’ circus of stupidity currently on display from all sides of the known healthcare universe of concerned millionaires and their billionaire masters…doesn’t drive you to read even more Sarah Palin twitter’s on climate change, wait till you read about Mississippi and their good friend Iran.
As you may or more than likely may not know, Mississippi is no place to be if you are poor, not white and in need of medical attention. Or a job. Or a fair trial etc. etc. But thanks to Iran and a few of their doctors, one community in Mississippi will be training healthcare workers, to fan out into their communities to dispense much-needed help and information about general healthcare and welfare to the people.
For a glimpse into what part of your America looks like, go here read this. Then thank our partner in torture and illegal wars for the heads up…and Iran for helping us out too.
It goes without saying, but I’m going to say it anyway, that our wars on drugs, people of color and nations with things that we want, makes people like Dick Cheney very wealthy. Guess what actually trying to help our fellow humans makes for people like Dick? You guessed it, nothing, nada…dick.
I recall Rick Steves tried to tell us a thing or two about Iran. Apparently it’s a nation filled with humans who love their babies and life. It’s also a nation being run by religious fanatics and politicians, who could give a flying fuck about their constituents best interests. Sounds familiar, no?
If we can judge a nations honesty and wholesome goodness by its actions…then we are indeed nothing as advertised.
In America, pregnant women can drop and die next to EMT’s on a coffee break, but her corpse and unborn child will have to wait for them to finish their snack, before any lifesaving help can be attempted. We spend approximately $50 million a year looking for our MIA’s in Vietnam, we spend billions trying to ease the suffering of our Agent Orange veterans and their families…we spend dick trying to clean up the chemical cocktail of death we left behind.
Our newer veterans and “enemies” are dealing with Depleted Uranium. Billions are spent per week on fake wars, hundreds of billions for Wall Street and billions more for Pentagon friendly defense contractors…
The axis of healthcare is a ponzi scheme run by lobbyists and your Congress.
The axis of evil is a lot closer to home than most of us care to dwell on.
Have a great Monday.
The Cucolo Back Door Draft
'this is your weapon...this is your gun, son'
Meet Maj. General Anthony Cucolo III. He hates our enemies and he also hates pregnancies.
Since the General has lost the pretend war on Iraq’s WMD’s and dead Saddam is still dead, General Cucolo is bored out of his mind. So he has decided to fight the insurgency of pregnancies in your U.S. Army instead.
The general has banned them.
That’s right, no one on Anthony’s watch will get pregnant. If they do, the impregnated and the impregnator, could face a court-martial and jail time.
Sure General Cucolo is dealing with some psychological issues. They don’t call him cuckoo-low just for shits and giggles…
In the generals defense, most 0’s above a butter bar tend to be bed wetters and social misfits, so the general is in good company.
I’m sure the general needs solutions. Answers, not more questions.
As a former NCO type, I’ve got your answers right here Anthony. Wave that magical wand of yours and ban the war. Any troop caught fighting would face a trip home, the VA healthcare system and the Bush/Obama depression.
And while you’re in the wand waving mode of banning shit, Anthony, why not rid us of the CIA, Senator Liebermann and the other pretend war on our Afghan opium producers. Ban em all general!
Give me a call Anthony. I’ve got some other ideas for you as well.
Axis of Evil Slows Ashton Kutcher Twittery
So one of the axis of evil doing, evil doers, took over Twitter yesterday and shut things down for a while.
27 million Ashton Kutcher Twitter followers wept themselves to sleep…lost, alone and ensconced in puddles of urine soaked sheets of abandonment and other assorted issues.
Guess they were punk’d by Iran?
Distractions. They keep us nicely entertained and engaged.
And stuff.
If the Climate Were a Bank
They would have bailed it out already.
God Damn! You just can’t get good shit like that from our corporate owned politicians. “If the climate were a bank, they would have bailed it out already,” this from Hugo Chavez at the pretend climate change summit in Copenhagen.
Not only is he right, but Hugo starts off the day with a bang and gets things moving here at the Lens, on this Thursday, a fairly bad day for the Corporate Owned Democrats.
Let’s just call today Corporate Owned Democrat Thursday
and jump on in!
More from Hugo…he uses words like these, “we are again faced with powerful evidence of global imperial dictatorship“, he means us, “capitalism is a destructive development model that is putting an end to life, that threatens to put a definitive end to the human species.” Hugo continues, “the richest 500 million people, or 7% of the world’s population, are responsible for 50% of global greenhouse emissions, while the poorest 50% of the worlds population are responsible for only 7% of total emissions.”
Good stuff…go here for more with Hugo Chavez, the worlds scariest non-Capitalist.
Things get even worse for Obama and crew from here.
- Andy Stern of the SEIU and other large labor unions are not happy with the health scare distraction bill.
- You’re House of Representatives (Norm Dicks) just passed a $634 billion Defense bill, that does not include the Obama Afghan surge. We’ll be paying for that next spring. That’s $634 billion…you non insured, unemployed, foreclosed on rubes.
- Of course many of you will be forgetting the previous $680 billion defense bill passed in October.
- And let us not forget this June and the $106 billion “emergency” war funding bill.
I’m sensing some sort of pattern here. Is it me, or does anyone else think our priorities might just be a tad bit fucked up?
Nope…it’s not just me!
Ouch! That stings a bit don’t it, Mr. President?
Wait! There’s more!!
Wow…Keith, Howard Dean? I guess I’m not alone after all?!!
You know Democrats…Mr. President, I may be just a former middle class, Air Force veteran with anger issues, and a penchant for smacking people up side their heads…but I think you guys may want to rethink your bullshit, corporate owned, Pentagon driven agendas for just a moment or three.
Or do what I do when caught telling several hundred lies, or finding myself complicit in war crimes, or whoring for corporate America…I go to that safe place I like to call Sammy Hagarville.
Happy Corporate Owned Democrat Thursday everybody!!
The Taxman Does Not Cometh
He cometh for you and I, but the taxman will not goeth anywhere near Citigroup’s first bailout.
You just lost 38 billion more of your tax dollars.
Quite a bargain when compared to the trillions spent on the Obama wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Mexico and Detroit.
But who’s counting.
Listen for the collective American yawn in 3…2…1…
American KGB Hostel for the Brown Skinned
Hey kids! This is war criminal Donald Rumsfeld visiting the KGB prison/torture museum in Lithuania in 2005.
This is the Donald’s letter of thanks for the torture tour and twisted words of Soviet style propaganda.
Below is our CIA torture facility in Lithuania, which was in operation in 2005. It’s just down the road from the KGB’s former black site of torture and death.
Our American/KGB CIA torture Hostel for the Brown Skinned sure seems nicer. But what in Sarah Palin’s insane mind was Donald Rumsfeld doing there? During 0 dark thirty torture time? In 2005?
Why are Donald, Dick, Bush, Tenet, Ashcroft, Addington, Stanley McChrystal, Rove, etc. etc., still able to walk freely amongst you?
Good question.
I’m sure it has something to do with freedom not being free, freedom fries, 9/11 and or change.
Who Would Malia Ann and Natasha Bomb?
This is Quetta, Pakistan. Almost a million humans live there. This is the next stop for the Obama girls and their bombing campaign via CIA and Blackwater drones.
Quetta, Pakistan is hiding some “suspected” Taliban targets. This information comes to us from the CIA, the DIA, the NSA and General Stanley himself. That’s right. Malia and Natasha base all of their pretend war and civilian/religious fanatic bombing decisions, on what these agencies and General Stan tell them.
Think how well the “supplied” intel was on Iraq, the WMD’s, Anthrax, Central America, South America, Afghanistan, 9/11 or any other war/political action/assassination/torturing session that went on in the last 50 years or so. When your intel and justification for everything you do is based on lies…well, it shouldn’t take a real smart global warming skeptic to know what I’m saying. If you know
what I’m saying.
So, while the Obama girls are deciding which religious fanatics to bomb next, might I suggest the FBI/DHS begin a campaign of drone bombing against places like Houston, San Diego and Miami? I hear those towns are full of religious fanatics who would do harm to America.
Make your babies proud Mr. President.
