Obama Hits all the Wrong Notes


– “You need to make sure your child can speak Spanish

Pandering. Missing the point. Getting the realpolitik entirely wrong. Sounding like the Holy Harvard man that I hoped he wasn’t…And to think I sort of liked the guy.

There Will Be No Heterosexual AIDS Epidemic, Experts Admit

Published at GNN, June 2008

- An orphan in New York City receiving Aids drugs - was he ever really infected?


The World Health Organization confesses that 25 years of international Aids projections and programs were based on fear, not evidence. But they still want you to believe them.

It is official: Aids is not explicable by sexual transmission. There is no heterosexual Aids pandemic, and further, there will be no heterosexual Aids pandemic.

“Threat of world Aids pandemic among heterosexuals is over, report admits”, The Independent announced on Sunday, June 8, 2008, mimicking what I have been reporting for years (and what some of my colleagues have been reporting for decades).

No, really. But take it from someone you trust, Dr. Kevin de Cock of the World Health Organization: “[T]here will be no generalised epidemic of Aids in the heterosexual population outside Africa.”

Ah, Whole Foods

A couple years ago, in the San Francisco branch of Whole Foods Market, off of steep and divisionary slope of Van Ness Blvd, I picked up a flat package containing a fistful of cold, cooked white rice, and a few pieces of bloody tuna thrown this way and that. I brought it to the help desk, and asked, “What is this?

She’s a Killer…Queeeeen

.

Clinton tells the press, ‘Drop out? But the ‘hope’ man hasn’t been assassinated yet! Just give it a month!’:

My husband [Nepotism-Monarchy Alert!] did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it,” she said.

She'll come to get you!
- ‘Die, Black Man, Die,’ says Hilly, on the trail. Hope dies last, indeed!

Hillary Clinton Campaigns to be “President of White, Cheese-steak-binge-eating, Hard-drinking, Gun-rack-wearing Democratic States.”

“I really, really, really, really,” said Clinton, “reallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreally”, she continued,
“REALLY REALLY WANT TO BE POPULAR!” She told a crowd gathered in front of a Wal*Mart in Louisville.

“I really really really WANT to be important! And if you’ll help me stay important,” she pledged, “I’ll say that I’ll do things that you want to hear somebody say!” She told the slightly dazed crowd, who were getting an early start on their weekend drinking.

Gay Maiwwaaajj

You’ve heard the news?

Court Voids Gay Marriage Ban. California [Here].

Princess Marriage

And I’ve heard the radio talk-show hounds tell me that it’s “Anti-Democratic! Against the Will of the People to have a Law Forced into Our Lives!”

(But we’ve heard that before….)

I Know How to Fix What’s Ailing America

And it’s so clear, straightforward and logical, that you’re gonna have a “Why isn’t that already a LAW!” moment, I guarantee.

Let’s call it….

The XXVIII Amendment:

No Children,

Junior

No Siblings,

Bro

And No Spouses.

The Dumbest Generation (That’s Us!)


Can U Read Kant?
, asks the Wall Street Journal, in its (laugh-and-cry-out) laudable review of…


[F]rom 1981 to 2003, the leisure reading of 15- to 17-year-olds fell to seven minutes a day from 18. But the real action has been in multitasking. By 2003, children were cramming an average of 8½ hours of media consumption a day into just 6½ hours – watching TV while surfing the Web, reading while listening to music, composing text messages while watching a movie.

Rudy Bentz and the Swift River Academy

What are teen “tough-love” and “behavior modification” programs like, from the inside?

You can discover at least a little by reading “What it takes to Pull Me Through,”, by a writer named Dave Marcus.

Reading the book, I recognize all of the details - the forced labor, the bizarre, unregulated, unprofessional group ‘therapies’; the tactics of humiliation, isolation and coercion. I have to say, however, that while the author shows a good facility with chronology, he seems to have done little to no research on the effectiveness, ethical nature - or legality - of what he was witnessing.

Hillary Will Lower Gas Prices!

She said so! She’ll make it happen. She has a plan.

Not just a short-term fix, invented to take advantage of the public’s massive gullibility (and fear that all Black men are the same).

No! No, no, no. No!

It’s a real plan… with a living history

You see, when she was young and traveling in the Amazon (with her great-uncle, Sir Edmund Hillary, who she was named for), Read the rest of this entry »

How did this get to be the most interesting program on television?

(Not the very) last supper

It’s in the writing (acting, directing, and production):

The meta-machines that destroyed humanity (and its 12 zodiacal planets), drive us to discover our inner piece of Holy Spirit (while forcing us to reject our happy pantheon)…
