Sometimes The Little Guy Wins

Posted by BuelahMan on January 30, 2011

I am not at liberty to say “who” it is, but one of our regulars has recently beaten the Zionist Machine at their own game. It took quite some time and has kept this good man from being his true self online (I can understand that, but from a different angle). They tried to shut him up and accuse him of bullshit and he fought it out in court. He is far from rich (they have a never-ending supply of money), but sometimes, being right wins over the Big Money. It is not everyday this happens and you should take note. The reason you should take note is that it could happen to you, just by an unsuspecting friend’s misuse of words.

Back in September, I was accused on Facebook by a woman I have known for a very long time (since high school) that she felt like I was “bullying” her because I told her about Chaim, err, Gene Simmons being a Zionist tool. She loves Kiss (does the makeup thing and all) and was offended, I suppose, because I mentioned it on her wall. In the follow-up messages she and I shared, she made the bully comment, then tried to get me to re-friend her after she had de-friended me in a knee-jerk reaction. Funny. She calls me a bully, then wants to be my friend again. She really is a fine person and spoke too fast and didn’t mean it, but after conversing with Scott about this, it is dangerous and I felt I needed to discontinue any further communications (even on FB).

BTW: she never sent me the Maynard Ferguson swag she promised me from his drummer, but that didn’t make me mad or make me want me to de-friend her (just in case by some miracle she reads this). I still converse with her Mom fairly regularly, as a matter of fact. They must not be too worried about my bullying (and her Mom is such a wonderful person).

Just so you know, I turned her down re-friend request and explained that using those words are very dangerous in this country right now and that the last thing I want to do is bully anyone. I also told her how ludicrous it is and how she isn’t thinking thru her quick decisions, if she feels like using those types of words are ok in this environment. Anyone who knows me knows I am no bully. I may be a dickhead, but I am no bully. Dangerous words could have caused the very same thing to happen to me that happened to Scott (and it could happen to you).

This was also covered over at American Everyman. Willyloman added this for a brief description (helps lay out the history):

(In March of 2009, Scott Humphrey, a regular reader here, brought my attention to an article written by a man by the name of George Sisk in his local paper. It was an opinion piece called , “In My View: Don’t Blame Israelis for Civilian Deaths“. Mr. Sisk worked with a local Jewish organization in Scott’s hometown and the article was an attempt by Mr. Sisk to blame the Palestinians in Gaza for all the civilian deaths that occurred there during Israel’s Operation Cast Lead. Scott wanted us to put together a response and we did, which he submitted and it was published. I wrote an article which deals with this called The Twisted History of Mr. Sisk . One thing led to another, and Mr. Sisk tried to use a new internet stalking law to have Scott prosecuted. Some were felony charges. Scott never threatened George Sisk. One day someone went through the thousands of posts I had put up at that time looking for something but there was nothing there. Scott Humphrey never threatened the man, even after he was being prosecuted. Well, Scott has been cleared of any wrong-doing, I have seen the court dockets. He has been exonerated of all charges brought against him. Anyway, nearly two years later, Scott is back and his name in this matter has been cleared. It was an important test case and a small victory for internet freedom and speaking the truth about what is happening in Gaza right now. Scott stood up and took it all the way to court and he won. Good job Scott.)

So, until he comes out of the closet here (so to speak), help me rejoice with him by seeing the real deal that was presented at The Illinois Times by Patrick Yeagle:

Springfield blogger cleared of electronic harassment charges

Case tests 2008 state cyberbullying law

By Patrick Yeagle

The pen is mighty, says Scott Humphrey of Springfield, but he’ll be more cautious when he uses it from now on. The 58-year-old construction worker and blogger learned that lesson after his recent acquittal on charges of making threats on the Internet.

Humphrey’s case is among the first local tests of a 2008 Illinois law aimed at dealing with cyber-bullying and electronic harassment. Illinois Times first reported on the case in October 2009. [See “Blogger busted,” Oct. 15, 2009, by Amanda Robert.]

For Humphrey, the conflict began on March 7, 2009, when the State Journal-Register published an opinion article by George Sisk of Springfield, then-chairman of the Springfield Jewish Community Relations Council, defending Israel’s use of force in Palestine. Later that day, Humphrey posted on an Internet message board called “American Everyman,” rebutting Sisk’s points and saying he planned to write directly to Sisk. But one passage among Humphrey’s posts that day apparently sounded threatening to Sisk.

“George Sisk has never heard of me,” Humphrey’s post said. “He doesn’t know I exist and live in the same city he does. That’s about to change…battles are fought by individuals who would rather be someplace else. Here, in my own backyard is a battle that has to be waged, a battle to the truth against the great lies.”

Humphrey says that post earned him a visit from two FBI agents on April 2, 2009. He told the agents he did not intend to harm anyone, he says, and they left.

On April 9, 2009, Humphrey posted on the same message board a story about a rat he had encountered while at work.

“So, I stood there looking down at this…RAT…and pondered its fate,” Humphrey wrote. “We all damn well know what rats are all about. They’re no f—g good…. Killing this rat f—k would serve in the best interests of society,” Humphrey wrote. “Isn’t that right, George? See, everyone, George, agrees that I should kill this rat….Here is what I decided about the rat I had life or death over. It ain’t my f—n’ job to kill the rats over there.”

Asked whether he was making an analogy, Humphrey says he was simply relaying a true story, and the rat was not meant to symbolize George Sisk or even Palestinians.

Still, Humphrey says he was visited by an investigator with the Sangamon County state’s attorney’s office on July 13. Again, Humphrey denied wanting to hurt anyone, but the police returned and arrested him on Aug. 16, 2009, charging him with two counts of harassment through electronic communications and two counts of disorderly conduct for his Internet posts. At a bench trial held Jan. 11, 2011, a Sangamon County circuit judge found Humphrey not guilty of all four charges.

George Sisk said he did not wish to answer questions about the case and instead issued a statement to Illinois Times.

“My wife, children and I have been made to endure an extremely painful and gut-wrenching ordeal since March 2009,” Sisk wrote via e-mail. “Through all this, we have concluded that we are essentially powerless to change the antiquated mindsets of the numerous Scott Humphrey-like individuals in society. We do, however, possess the power to decide how we choose to react to these individuals and their mentalities. In short, our reaction or decision, really, is this: to simply allow this hellish, nightmare-like chapter of our lives to close once and for all.”

Humphrey says he is not violent and even urges against violence.

“I’m not a trained writer,” he says. “But nonetheless, within the venue where I submit my written comment, I want to be taken seriously. I feel that if one such as myself resorts to street violence, then one loses all credibility in what they have to say, and they become just a street thug. That is not how I would like to be remembered.”

B’Man’s Hypocrite Watch: The Hero Ayn Rand

Posted by BuelahMan on January 29, 2011

The HuffPo tells us that Ayn Rand (really, her name is Alisa Zinovievna Rosenbaum) lied to all of those idiotic sycophantic followers of hers:

Say it ain’t so Alisa Zinovievna Rosenbaum.

A heavy smoker who refused to believe that smoking causes cancer brings to mind those today who are equally certain there is no such thing as global warming. Unfortunately, Miss Rand was a fatal victim of lung cancer.

However, it was revealed in the recent “Oral History of Ayn Rand” by Scott McConnell (founder of the media department at the Ayn Rand Institute) that in the end Ayn was a vip-dipper as well. An interview with Evva Pryror, a social worker and consultant to Miss Rand’s law firm of Ernst, Cane, Gitlin and Winick verified that on Miss Rand’s behalf she secured Rand’s Social Security and Medicare payments which Ayn received under the name of Ann O’Connor (husband Frank O’Connor).

As Pryor said, “Doctors cost a lot more money than books earn and she could be totally wiped out” without the aid of these two government programs. Ayn took the bail out even though Ayn “despised government interference and felt that people should and could live independently… She didn’t feel that an individual should take help.”

But alas she did and said it was wrong for everyone else to do so. Apart from the strong implication that those who take the help are morally weak, it is also a philosophic point that such help dulls the will to work, to save and government assistance is said to dull the entrepreneurial spirit.

In the end, Miss Rand was a hypocrite but she could never be faulted for failing to act in her own self-interest.

Yes, she was a hypocrite. They all are. It is all theater with most knowing they are actors and quite a few just stupid assholes that aren’t smart enough to see the act. Brain dead sycophants that regurgitate her brand of bullshit. And when it came right down to the nut-cuttin’, we see that her goal was really self-preservation thru lies and deceit.

This should be an indication of where those fools that tout her bullshit daily measure up on the intelligence scale.

I am hoping (but not betting) that my southern redneck friends will understand the significance of this and the entire Kabuki Theater they act out for your benefit. To keep you calling for the heads of poor people and protecting the wealthiest of the wealthy. It makes me wonder if these very same people would call for Rand’s family to piss test or pay back that money she stole thru lies. No, just like my latest dialogue on FB with an old band mate from college, it appears that it is impossible for them to understand any of this. It is the poor “crack heads” that are the problem and laws like the latest Ky law are the solution.

Well, that is until B’Man takes them to task to show what an idiotic argument it is to begin with:

Stinky: Kentucky just passed the best law ever. To be on Foodstamps, Medicaid, or Cash Assistance for your Children or yourself, you HAVE TO pass a Drug Test. Now every other state should do the same. If you agree re-post. We have to work and take a drug test so should they

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

B’Man: Yes, so now when someone is found to have partaken in any substance (whether or not it was purchased or given) their children can starve. BRILLIANT!

When you applaud having the bankers who were given the TRILLIONS in welfare piss tested, I’ll agree.
Until then, you sound like a person who has a good job and wants others to suffer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stinky: Been tested for drugs my self and passed so i don’t have to live off your taxes, as long as you have a prescription for what your taking it’s OK by me, got better things to do besides take a toke these days.

Job is a job at least i do have o…ne and will want one, even if it means working three in a day to stay off welfare and keep my kids fed beside trade my food stamps for some crack or weed.

I am upstanding citizen and signed my name on the dotted line to defend your freedom and my comments.

All government employees have to take drug test, why shouldn’t the one who live off the government do the same.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

B’Man: So, to understand you, Stinky, you are willing to give up your freedoms even tho you signed the line to defend my freedoms (sounds like you are looking forward to it)? When I signed the line (I served in the Navy), I meant that I would defend the constitution from enemies, foreign and domestic. These enemies are the ones taking away the very freedoms I swore to defend (and “supposedly” you did, too). Not the poor people.

Do I have to explain how extraordinarily contrary such a stance is?

Just which of those freedoms did you sign for? All of them or just the ones you don’t mind giving up?

Do you honestly believe that everyone getting assistance is a crack or weed head? Are you that cynical or ignorant? Do you keep up with the news of the day and understand that this economic depression was NEVER caused by a single poor person?

So, Stinky, let me hear you jump on the bandwagon to have every banker and corporation dependent on the welfare of the TARP and other Stimulus pissed tested, too. Hell, for that matter, let us simply delete the parts about freedoms that you don’t mind throwing away and have EVERYONE tested.

I mean, shoot, you never know who might be a crack head (even tho prescription drugs cause far more problems than any illicit drug on the market).

And let me ask you this, Stinky: do you think it is proper and the American Way for you to have to work THREE jobs to feed your family? Don’t you think that something is wrong with that picture?

Next, since you BELIEVE that all government workers get piss tested, have your congressman show you his latest test results.

(Crickets will chirp as I wait)

Wake up, Stinky.

To believe that everyone on assistance is a crack head is foolish and shows the height of ignorance (this doesn’t mean you are stupid, but are getting bogus information, likely from the TV).

I can barely count on my two hands the number of ppl on my block who receive some sort of assistance. My wife (you know her) worked for decades and paid in, but her scoliosis has made it impossible and she is on Medicare. My next door neighbor is in her 70′s or 80′s and doesn’t have use of her legs after paying in for 4 or 5 decades, but according to you SHE needs a drug test. As a matter of fact, I know many people getting assistance and I don’t know a single crack head. Go figure. But YOU think they all need to be drug tested.

Duh?

You are complaining about money, but do you realize that such a testing policy would be quite expensive to implement? So, what really is your motive?

Starving the children of the very few crack heads that are on assistance?

Are you a Christian?

If so, ask Jesus if He would balk and force piss tests to give bread and fishes.

Tennessee Is Number 1 (And We Cuss, Too)

Posted by BuelahMan on January 25, 2011

I now reside in a state that can finally be proud of its ranking in America (which, itself,  might be ranked Number 1 among countries under the same subject). We have done it. We are number 1 in corruption. Visit the link and chase down your state’s premier claim to shame.

picture credit goes to Pleaded Jeans

The Daily Beast ran a story showing how they calculated to find the most corrupt state in the union. Using these parameters:

With that in mind, The Daily Beast examined a wide range of available data to rank the level of corruption in all 50 states. Each of the following data sets was weighted equally:•Public corruption, 1998—2008: Convictions of elected and other public officials investigated by federal agents over an 11-year period, from the Department of Justice.

Racketeering and Extortion, 1998—2008: Code for organized crime convictions, also investigated by federal agents over an 11-year period, from the Bureau of Justice Statistics.

Forgery and Counterfeiting, 1999—2008: Arrest numbers for producing or distributing fake money and goods over a 10-year period, from the FBI.

Fraud, 1999—2008: Arrests for false statements or documents produced for personal gain over a 10-year period, from the FBI.

Embezzlement, 1999—2008: Arrests for surreptitious theft of money over a 10-year period, from the FBI.

By using a decade’s worth of federal data, we were able to minimize changes in local law enforcement efficacy, though some flaws remain: local cases go undocumented, and the FBI data is self-reported by local law enforcement. When combined, however, the data provides a fairly deep look into which jurisdictions are uncovering the most corruption. We leveled the playing field by calculating the numbers on a per-100,000 people basis.

Their results are found here.

The numbers are impressive:

Public Corruption: 18
Racketeering & Extortion: 11
Fraud Rank: 7
Forgery & Counterfeiting: 5
Embezzlement: 9

I am not sure if this is related, but it also appears that where I live is a hotbed of cursing. See how your region lines up.

OK, So Its Number 2 Then

Posted by BuelahMan on January 24, 2011

Remember the Dickhead video I posted and my claim that this will be my approach. Case in point at Facebook this morning (I can’t believe that someone would actually still say this and NOT be complicit in the actions, but apparently stupidity reigns still)…

A friend (cousin, actually) posted the header and the follow up ensued:

Cuz: I think it’s important to remember our troops ALL of the time and not just on Veteran’s Day, Memorial Day or the 4th of July. I was in Atlanta at the airport and saw all the troops being deployed and had to hold back my tears when everyone stood up and applauded or saluted these brave men and women. This and the next song are dedicated to them, and maybe help so we don’t forget. There is more to life than trivial bla

Me: I would much prefer that each and every one of those military people were actually pursuing trivial bla, instead of being deployed.

Mr Noggin: Granddaughter leaves Afganistan in the next couple weeks which I’m glad of. I’m not for any war at all, but they brought it here so it’s best we take it there and keep it on their soil. 911 thinking…….

Me: There was not a single Afghan responsible for 911. Not one. Its a lie and you are having your grand daughter fight for a lie. THE BIGGEST LIE ever told in America.

I pray for your granddaughter and you.

And let me add that anyone still championing that lie is either wholly uninformed, stupid, or complicit.

Mr Noggin: B’Man, If the USA didn’t intervene against unjust actions we would probably be doing the goose step and speaking German. Don’t waste your time praying for me cause Jesus loves us all. I may not agree, but I do respect you opinion.

Me: Forgive me, Mr Noggin (and I swear I don’t mean this disrespectfully), but you are regurgitating the Empire’s talking points and it is a lie. Plain and simple.

My second statement still stands and I am guessing that number 1 is your issue (I don’t know you to tell whether or not you are stupid or complicit).

Which unjust action did Afghans do for us to illegally and immorally invade that country without a declaration of war? Iraq, for that matter? And you want your loved ones going there?

This ain’t WWII and it IS exactly what Ike told us would happen… the MIC has taken over and made us an Empire.

The saddest part is that too many insouciant and ignorant Americans can’t understand this very simple fact.

Does Jesus love little dead Afghan children as much as your granddaughter?

Mr Noggin: Whatever trips your trigger Raymond. Have a nice week.

Me: OK, so number 2 is it.

Mr Noggin: You’re entitled to your opinion. Have a nice week.

Me: I think I’ll be considering your granddaughter this week. Someone needs to.

In conclusion, tripping triggers seems to be more important to fools like this than truth.

Richard Noggin’ Saturday: Being A Dickhead’s Cool

Posted by BuelahMan on January 22, 2011

I’m cool!

And I don’t give a rat’s ass any more. It may be too late to really do anything about it, but I can get more across to the dumb-ass American citizenry by being a Dickhead than by any other method.

B’Man’s Redneck Watch: Rep Steve Cohen

Posted by BuelahMan on January 21, 2011

Have you ever seen someone struggle so hard to not look like a total, lying tool when they know how obvious it is that they look like a total, lying tool?

When he was asked about this, he said, “I dont know who got everybody’s panties in a wad over this statement.”

Altho a jew, he is a 4th generation Memphian and can obviously be called a redneck.

They Never Saw It Coming

Posted by BuelahMan on January 20, 2011

How many people have told me that I am over reacting, or over-imagining the seriousness of our situation. I have spent one on one time with as many people who would listen. I write about it here almost completely (I used to do some fairly ignorant and funny stuff, too). But the seriousness of the situation this country is in, along with the lackadaisical attitude and demeanor of most Americans allowing the situation to grow and it seems, become too big to handle now, has kept me from doing much in the way of humor or other subjects.

It’s always about how our country has purposely been taken over. This blog (my input, anyway) has ended up an outward expression of my internal struggle, trying to figure out what has happened and how to fix it (and avoid further catastrophe) and looking for feedback and ideas to help me. I ended up opening up on Facebook with mostly true friends or folks from home, trying to explain to them, as well (almost to no avail and the possible alienation of many who refuse to hear or believe that America is falling apart). As a matter of fact, there have been several people who have “de-friended” me over political issues (a few that surprised me).

My purpose has been only to warn, educate and help as many people as possible get through what is coming, while learning as much as I can. My purpose has been to find a way to stop the demise, or, at the very least, make the transition as smooth as possible for me and my loved ones. But I got to be honest… Sometimes I just want to slap the piss out of people (America). More so, I want to slap the piss out of the lying liars who have brainwashed most of us and are tearing America apart for their globalist agenda.

B’Man’s Redneck Watch: Remove Your Hat During Church

THIS ATHEIST SUPPORTS B´MAN´S SABBATH WORDS

Posted by kelsosnuts on January 16, 2011

IOr, having drawn inspiration for this from the thread following B´Man´s “Jobs” piece, and stealing from Malcolm X,I could title this “The Vessel or The Shekel.”

I may be an atheist, but I also believe that it is impossible to be an atheist without having read religious text and understanding and respecting religion. Big time religion is another Imperial corporatist con-game. Benito Mussolini admitted himself openly. The Church was one of the pillars of his concept of “fascism,” the others being the largest corporations and banks, the government and bureaucracy, the military and media. Sound like someplace you know pretty well?

So, I have no business with big religion, but I have no problem with the concept that “God is Love.” I live with a devout Cathoic woman and her religion and my study have brought us to the same morality so I have to figure that while I´m not bothering with Deuteronomy or Leviticus, I like the idea of Jesus whether in metaphysical form, as historical reformist rabbi, or main composite symbol in a larger allegory.

Whether “Prince Of Peace” as in English or “El Dios De Amor” in Spanish, the words are powerful. As she explains her understanding of Jesus to me, he is the embodiment of love in its purest form. While I´m not religious, I take comfort in those words.  And unless self-defense is required, when revolutionary values are on the table, I´m for peace and love. No one has convinced me yet that political violence is the way to stop political violence.

I don’t know of too many violent revolutions that produced anything good no matter if they won or lost. I am the great great nephew of two Bolsheviks who fought on the winning side of the Russian Revolution and they soon discovered that the new boss was just as bad as the old boss, if not worse, and that despite all the Leninist and Stalinist lies, the problems they fought and killed to correct were worse in the USSR: bigotry, cronyism, totalitarianism, arbitrary justice, corruption, class systems, and all that. And they got out as fast as they could.

French Revolution? Right idea. Well-strategized. Well-executed. Horrible outcome. Jacobin Party was worse than the USSR Communist Party (almost as bad as Khmer Rouge) and without even any of the lies about a workers´paradise. And what followed that? Return to the exact monarchical system the revolution overturned only with worse imperial aims and they ended up getting routed by the Brits.

Orange Revolution: Failure led by a John Hagee-type with the authority and taste for torture and murder.

Vietnamese Revolution: Oppressive authoritarian French colonial and local stooge government replaced by putatively egalitarian communist government soon after victory turned into somewhat less oppressive capitalist government with some democratic features and ally of the same empire which fought it at great cost to both sides, with the knock-on effect of truly brutal and ultimately worthless, useless, “revolutions” in Cambodia and Laos. Because I know so many American veterans of that war, and because I know so many Vietnamese immigrants to the USA who escaped either conscription by the South or retribution by the North, I have a lot of trouble writing anything even slightly positive about the results 35 years on.

Chinese Revolution: Monarchical Dynasty replaced by a different perversion of Marxism, slightly less oppressive than the USSR, but with many of the same features. Any concept of egalitarianism scrapped almost immediately leaving a Maoist government and all its tender mercies like “The Cultural Revolution” and “The Great Leap Forward”.  Steady improvement after Mao´s death to what obtains now, an intelligent, well-run, plutocratic oligarchy, without the wanton governmental violence, and part of a loose configuration of economic powers which stand as the one of the true “policemen of the world” against the trouble caused by the worst banksters and gangsters in the EVIL EMPIRE, but by no means a free or fair society.

Mexican Revolution: A just cause, a fair fight, a mixed result at the end leaving a country with all the potential in the world but having devolved into a 1-party, corrupt, fake democracy but real client state status of the USA which with NAFTA and a weak president and government is a full-on stooge, having replaced Noriega´s Panamá as the world´s cocaine middleman. Still though, it boasts one of the world´s more sophisticated cultures in one of the world´s most important cities, a real but imperfect democratic-republican system with true governing and opposition partie, and a vibrant region of dissent which has had a strong effect on taming the most brutal elements of society and is the conscience of the opposition party. Not terrible and a less violent product than any of the others but maybe because while the part of the Revolution liberating it from Spain was successful the part liberating it from the USA was a failure.

American Revolution: Not a revolution, really. Merely, a series of tax protests turned into a war between the parent nation and a once-friendly colonial master.  Very good result because of the luck of having 500 of the greatest legal and philosophical minds in world history in the same place at the same time, a unified populace, and superior military strategy. Always had, though, its own imperialist sensibilities revealed best by the systemic genocide, oppression and theft of the fruit of the indigenous tribes´labor and the most brutal and longest lasting slavery system of any other colonial power.

In its creation as a new nation, the best of those legal minds and Englightenment philosphers (“The Anti-Federalists” Franklin, Henry, Jefferson, Madison and Williams) lost the back-room political battle to “The Federalists” like John Adams, Gwinnett, Hamilton, Monroe, and Washington. This loss, briefly corrected in part by John Quincy Adams and in full by Andrew Jackson until his assassination with no Jacksonian power of note to follow until the decent but ineffective Grover Cleveland, left the seeds of the EVIL EMPIRE of today in foreign and domestic policy.

Nicaraguan Revolution: One of the less bloody in the actual fighting part, but despite Daniel Ortega at his best trying his hardest, the USA was too powerful for the Sandinista concept to ever have a chance.  It´s not a terrible place now in Ortega´s democratically-elected government, but he is neither the thinker nor the leader he once was.  Nicaragua, while a legitmate part of the Latin wave, is its most subordinate member.

The complex, brainy, Ortega who used every tool at his disposal from “magic leadership” to showing up at an American Corporatist convention of the Young President´s Society (CEO´s under 40) and annoucing that the propaganda was wrong and Nicaragua was open to fair trade and for-profit American business investment. Clever move, but sharing the wealth with the host country as well as Europe, was not what the Reagan Administration had in mind, exactly. They were “anti-communists” for show,imperialists for dough.

Ortega may be an iconic figure to Nicaragua now and in that sense he´s has some value but the years have made him less wise not more and in fact one could say Ronald Reagan´s domestic social policy was slightly more “liberal” than Ortega´s is now. Fresh leadership, but in synch with modern Latin America, is necessary in Nicaragua as it begins its biggest infrastructure project yet, another isthmian canal and trade project. It is also necessary because of the overthow of Zelaya in Honduras, who was a very good center-left president, populist and pro-working class as well as encouragement of growth, development and capital investment. I don´t believe Honduras is even a country anymore, as it not recognized by more than half of the other countries on Earth.  It is merely a gangster state as far as Hondureños are concerned and yet another military staging complex as far as the EMPIRE is concerned. With Colom´s government of Guatemala overthrown in a silent coup and Guatemala now a smaller version of Northern Mexico for CIA drug-running, strong leadership is needed in Nicaragua to go along with the Mauricio Funes government in El Salvador if Central America is to stay a part of the Latin Wave as it becomes more and more important.

Cuban Revolution:  The fight was fair. The violence limited. And the reasoning was consistent if not to everybody´s taste. Your guess is as good as mine, but it´s hardly a template for a New America.  It has not lived up to much of the utopian communist or instrumental socialist promises of Fidel Castro that´s for sure.  It´s an oligarchy, albeit a fairer one than most. The relentless USA efforts at destroying Cuba are probably the reasons Cuba is something of a failed state.  At this point, having lost its symbolism of cold war USSR intrusion into the USA´s sphere of influence because the Miami exiles are split on independent Cuba, it´s something of a sad sack and nothing of a threat. Other than a old deal which allowed Guantanamo Bay to remain in US hands, Cuba, which has also begged for foreign investment with not much in the way of success, is a burden on everybody.

I don´t think he´d ever admit this in public but the facial expressions and body language give it away every time: Hugo Chávez feels compelled to always pay special tribute to Castro as if it were Cuba which was powerful and Venezuela the empty husk, and Chávez hates doing that. He´s a good president, maybe a great president, but his ego pretty big. On the other hand, he takes one for the team with these displays at UNASUR-ALBA meetings because neither Rafael Correa, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, Pepe Mujica, Fernando Lugo, Mauricio Funes, and especially not Dilma Rousseff (who actually WAS a Marxist true-believer as a young woman) are in any hurry to go through these motions.  It´s a job best (maybe worst left to Ortega) if Chávez ever grows weary of it.  Maybe Evo Morales could do it. He´s extremely polite and very into symbolism but of course he´s not orator that Chávez is (few are).

Bolivarian Revolution I: Not terrible in that it wasn´t as violent as any of the others I´ve mentioned.  Good that it was grounded in the same Englightenment philosophy the American Revolution was, but following Bolivar,Venezuela could not really sustain independence and evolution. By the time the Bolivarian Revolution II came along with Hugo Chávez — via the ballot not the bullet — Venezuela had become a corrupt 1-party client state of the USA, not as bloody as Chile, Paraguay,El Salvador, Argentina and Colómbia have been but always a country riddled with economic and social problems.

REVOLUTION 2011

Both my analytical view and my moral values tell me that B’Man´s right and the chances for any good to come of violent revolution in the USA are 0%. The US government, which has at an ever increasing rate been removing basic rights and liberties from its citizens and residents to the point that it is a police state and the most militarized, most sadistically sophisticated of any yet, would love the opportunity to put it down quickly, violently, and symbolically to close the window on any thoughts of another attempt.

They´ll do it anyway as the food and water riots begin with the increasing unemployment, hidden inflation, and hyperinflation awaiting the first sharp move downward for the USD in the world´s f/x markets. Goldilocks and the rest of the banksters have already bet 6 times the value of the Earth against the USD, anyway. And how can you blame them? They´re greedy bastards and they just like us can see what endless commitment to war alongside psychopathic monetary policy like “quantitative easing” portends.

Though we have certainly not been the first to say this, the only available kind of “revolution” creating a New America, I think B´Man and I see the narrow way through more clearly than those who advocate violence as a means for change.

I´d recommend reading: David DeGraw on modern American revolution, the Kevin Zeese-David Beito-Ralph Nader-David DeGraw book and blogs and listen to the interviews, Cindy Sheehan´s “Revolutionary Communities” idea, watching Michael Badnarik´s 43-part video (each segment 10-minutes) on the Constitution which closes with his thoughts on alternative peoples´currency, George Orwell´s “Homage To Catalonia,” as well as what has been happening in Barcelona in the news and maybe as far back as the Maragell era which ended when he was term-limited in 2007 or as far back as forever, the history of the Prague rebellion, the history of the Diggers, all about permaculture, and in fact anything about the history and news in alternative peoples´currency because B´Main nailed it.

My referring to the Diggers´rebellion in England reminded me of this song and while Billy Bragg has become an Obamamón, he sang this as an idealistic young man as opposed to the credulous or calculating middle-aged man he became.

The US EMPIRE AND POLICE STATE only have power if their dollar has power and their dollar only has power if people believe it has power or accept that it has power.  The Federal Reserve and Treasury themselves say that the dollar is “backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Of America.” Well, does anyone think that the USA has any real credit or is deserving of any faith at all?

I don´t know how many times I´ve written it but the whole rest of the world is lined up to be the 2nd country to kick America when it´s down. I can´t think of a better FIRST COUNTRY to start it off than the ACTUAL USA, NOT THE GOVERNMENT OR INSTITUTIONS BUT THE PATRIOTIC, PEACEFUL, FREEDOM-LOVING, CRITICALLY-THINKING, INFORMED AMERICAN PEOPLE.

The sheeple will have to shift for themselves. They are no more your responsibility than you are BRIC, Venezuela, Iran, Iceland, Turkey, Switzerland, Malaysia, Indonesia, Ecuador, Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay, or “Greater Andorra”´s responsibility.  They have their own problems with the EMPIRE and judging by Chávez´s telling the USA to fuck itself and foget any free CITGO home heating oil,during one of the coldest winters in recent memory, is a sign that while he´s a decent human being, he like every other head of state in conflict with the EMPIRE is way too busy with those tasks to bother with people who won´t help themselves. He already led a peaceful revolution of his own people.

And he´s just one example. It´s great knowing there´s an Armageddon stopper out there in BRIC but Americans have to do this for each other and in a way that´s unified, organized, and culturally appropriate for a pretty diverse populace.

Go and do likewise, friends.

B’Man’s Sabbath Watch: God Is Love

Posted by BuelahMan on January 16, 2011

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

1John 4:8

This love is agape. This is “divine love” or “God’s love”. This is what MLK discussed in his writing, “The Power of Non-Violence“:

AGAPE LOVE

The Greek language uses three words for love. It talks about eros. Eros is a sort of aesthetic love. It has come to us to be a sort of romantic love and it stands with all of its beauty. But when we speak of loving those who oppose us we’re not talking about eros. The Greek language talks about philia and this is a sort of reciprocal love between personal friends. This is a vital, valuable love. But when we talk of loving those who oppose you and those who seek to defeat you we are not talking about eros or philia. The Greek language comes out with another word and it is agape. Agape is understanding, creative, redemptive good will for all men. Biblical theologians would say it is the love of God working in the minds of men. It is an overflowing love which seeks nothing in return. And when you come to love on this level you begin to love men not because they are likeable, not because they do things that attract us, but because God loves them and here we love the person who does the evil deed while hating the deed that the person does. It is the type of love that stands at the center of the movement that we are trying to carry on in the Southland—agape.

I have a deep belief that the only way forward in this country is to take back what the thieves are stealing. The problem is how to do it. There are more and more people who seem to think that the only way henceforth is to arm ourselves and take it that way. Personally, I disdain violence and cannot think of a situation that I should instigate it towards anyone (I am not saying that people should not defend themselves… on the contrary, I will easily defend myself and my family from harm). But to plan and carry out acts of violence is no different from what is being done by our government.

I truly believe there must be another way and when I think about the leaders and status quo of “The System” that is in place, I realize that the fastest way to fix any of this is to hit them, not with bullets, but in their pocketbook. It is the non-compliance thing that Max Igan always talks about and I feel like some form of that will be what saves us. But first, we need to understand exactly what it is we are up against.

Most ppl are indoctrinated by the system and are, themselves, quite ignorant to the truth. Even tho I stay angry at these people, being angry at them (police, sycophant, etc) is useless because it is the system that brainwashes them. It is fruitless to use violence, for the battle is not with that person, but with the bogus indoctrinating system. To fight the system, we must change the system. To change it, we must reach across the false paradigm divides, focusing on the unity of us and our plight versus THEM (basically poor vs rich).

I appreciate Max’s description of the system and how it self perpetuates. How it really was implemented long ago and self governs… self-runs with no real “Boss Hog” calling the shots. Of course this does not mean that Rothschilds and other very wealthy families have no say so (nor am I saying that them and other rich families didn’t devise The System). But, at this point, it runs itself with little bits of direction periodically by the power elite.

But doesn’t it seem as if we, as a mass of citizens, SHOULD be able to thwart such a System, if we could simply come together? If we give our energy to each other and deprive the system, we can change it.

The more I think about this issue and compare it to religious teachings and consider the one New Testament selection that really says something very similar, it makes me consider that Max is correct: Love is an energetic state, opposite of fear. If the world operated in a state of energy that was formed in love, AND were able to figure out how to share this with others, then a change could occur. The problem is the system that is built to keep us from ever understanding this and forming those alliances/understandings. To do so would be to dismantle the System.

Stand against The System in love and refuse to participate. It really is that simple. The hard part is getting the rest of humanity to see how easy it is.

When I say refuse to participate, what I am saying is to take your money out of their banks. Grow your own food, set up a network with others who grow food or animals and make your community the provider of all your needs. Hell, you don’t even need their stinking Dollar to make this happen. There are alternative currencies being used all over the country as I write this. People are already beginning to do this.

Max says:

“Embrace people around you as yourself.”

And isn’t that another excellent Biblical reference? The only true way to gain agape is do what Jesus said to do:

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”

Mark 12:31

I couldn’t be more serious that with a concerted effort by a mass of Americans, we could shut them down in a heart beat. Stop spending money in their stores (tell Wal-Mart to eat shit). Don’t buy that new car. Purchase used, whenever possible. Share garden supplies and seeds (don’t buy their GMO Frankenfoods). If possible, get off their grid and self-sustain (more difficult than it sounds). Don’t vote in another election, IF all you can do is be the lemming voting for the lesser of two evils (in other words STOP participating in the sham elections). Don’t drink their tainted water. Don’t step into a XRay machine at the airport and sue their ass if they grope you. Stand up for your rights and defend yourself from the Police State assaults. More importantly, stand up when you see them attack another. This doesn’t have to be an issue of force, but of taking video and ensuring it is publicized everywhere you can. But use force, if necessary.

And don’t think, for a remote second, that I am saying lay down and be lovey-dovey, do nothings. If someone tries to harm you or your loved ones, defend yourselves, just as I will. But as Max keeps saying over and over, do so from a perspective and attitude of love (what greater show of love is there than to defend your family from harm). I’ll put it this way, I will put a cap in the ass of anyone who tried to harm me and my family and I believe it is the fact that I love them that would have me do this. I would feel quite horrible afterwards, but I am not going to allow anyone to harm my family and friends, if there is anything I can do to stop it.

The one thing I have learned over the years is that love can be tough. You have heard it said before, I am sure, “Tough-love”.

And I believe this is why I do what I do here. As much of an asshole as I can be, I do this as a warning for people I care about (and generally, I care for everyone). I don’t make a nickel from warning people. There isn’t a bunch of accolades that come with this gig (on the contrary). There is no reward, whatsoever, except seeing people wake up and realize what is being done to them. On the contrary, I made the conscious decision to become the “crazy guy on the street corner”, yelling it is coming to an end. You don’t think I know how I am viewed by many sycophantic plebes who simply don’t know what is happening to them.

Maybe it is that I can see the Big Picture and most cannot.

I Bet W Wired Up Those Buildings…

Posted by BuelahMan on January 15, 2011

How many of you have heard this as a retort when you ask questions about the demolitions of that day?

I have had conversations, level-headed, no screaming, sound judgment and clear-headed, and the best reply I get from quite a few is immediately building that straw man. Do I have to tell you how stupid it makes you look if you even ask that question?

First of all, W is too damned stupid to wire a lightbulb, much less a demolition. Second of all, why would anyone immediately suggest that the POTUS/King would dirty his own hands? It is deflection and diversion, of course. It may be outright complicity and hiding truth, but most of the conversations I have are with “right-wing” rednecks who seem to want to believe anything that comes from Rush Limpballs. Seriously, I believe that most are simply ignorant and do not WANT to believe that our own government would do such a thing.

Sadly, these people are going to be on their own and sitting in some camp someday (likely happy as a lark). That is, as long as they allow football and Nascar.

So, when a person begins to investigate who could have actually wired those buildings, one begins to find all sorts of “coincidental” connections. Weird shit like the George W Bush family connections to the security of the WTC complex. Paul Bremer’s active role in all of this BEFORE becoming the Czar of Iraq, taking his (and Giuliani’s) booty buddy, Keric with him.

Kevin Ryan was interviewed on Guns and Butter recently and I wanted to share the interview because it is the most thorough synopsis of the connections that made the wiring possible. The connections are amazing and certainly this SHOULD cause enough stir for another REAL investigation by some independent source (hopefully from another country). We cannot spend one more minute listening to the very same lying talking heads who either got us in the mess or protect the ones that did, providing themselves with even more power and MONEY.
