The Penis/Joaquin Phoenix Post
First…the penis.
And now…Joaquin Phoenix. Why Joaquin and the penis? Why the hell not. It’s at least mildly entertaining. The penis song, not Joaquin.
Happy Friday.
Terrorist Found

He’s not Mexican and the Border Patrol did not capture him in any Mexican terrorist testing checkpoints of freedom.
James G. Cummings was rich, white, hated people of color and collected Adolph Hitler cutlery. James was storing hydrogen peroxide, uranium, thorium, lithium metal, thermite, aluminum powder, beryllium, boron, black iron oxide and magnesium ribbon…all ingredients used in the making of a dirty bomb.
James is also dead. His wife killed him back on December 9th, which is when the FBI first learned of the dirty bomb materials. WikiLeaks is the only reason we are now learning of this terrorist who abused his wife.
Which bring us to Representative Norm Dicks. Since Norm has no reason to scream, rant or rage about Boeing and France as of late…Norm has the time to send a letter. This letter is not filled with rage nor rhetoric, because it is not about Boeing. It’s about the Border Patrol’s hunt for Mexican terrorists on the Olympic Peninsula. This continuing hunt for Mexican terrorists, is being carried out at terrorist hot spots like buses, schools, sidewalks, restaurants, churches and Washington State Parks. Norm sent this letter to the new Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano and in it, Norm says checkpoints are not cool and racial profiling kind of sucks.
To catch up with all of this, go read this, then go read this.
Janet Napolitano is one lucky Homeland Security Secretary. Just imagine if the Border Patrol were to treat Boeing like a brown skinned bus rider. I’m sure Norm’s concern would have been just a bit more urgent and genuine.
Change Elkhart Indiana
Okay, you can’t change Elkhart, but you can try to stimulate it. So President Obama is on his way to Elkhart, to share in his vision for a stimulated economy.
In other news, Iraq is still costing billions a day, Congress will not change, Krugman says either version of the stimulated package…will not work. Great news!
My apologies Elkhart, I’m afraid the President and I have nothing but hope and rhetoric to offer. Maybe a “Zissou style” changes melody will help?
Change Check
Quick check for change on the blogroll…nope. Congress humans still not getting it and KBR keeps getting new contracts to kill troops. Nope, no change happening today.
Instead, I give you change, from Blind Melon.
Operation Obfuscation

The Border Patrol prefers to call it Operation Stonegarden. That there’s fancy speak for Mexican internment camps.
With Operation Obfuscation, any local law enforcement agency that takes the bait, will in turn, get a crack at millions of dollars in LE equipment. All that is required, is a lack of common sense and the desire to detain brown skinned humans. ICE and the Border Patrol will then take it from there.
Not surprisingly, lack of sense runs rampant in Clallam and Whatcom counties. They would be two counties that took the money. These would be two counties to stay away from, if you happen to have a tan or look Mexicanish. You will be stopped. You will be terror tested.
Fortunately, one law enforcement professional, Sheriff Mike Brasfield of Jefferson County, told the Border Patrol where to shove their Stonegarden money. You can read more about that, right here. It should be required reading for all Border Patrol agents, who just don’t get that whole goofy Constitution thingy.
The glorious Department of Homeland Securing, has too much money to spend, too many fuck ups at the helm and no desire to police themselves. The new Czar at Homeland, Janet Napolitano, also has a Chandler roundup in her closet and I’m guessing…tax problems too.
So I suppose it boils down to this. If you thought Skittles, puppy dog entrails and Viagra would fall from the sky, the instant President Obama sat down in the round office…I suggest you keep waiting and lay off the meth just a bit.
