White noise

This story irked me, majorly. This is what happens when one is so blinded with prejudice that it becomes difficult to catch on to the unbelievable words that are actually falling out of his/her mouth.

Amidst the Arizona immigration law debate, Republican California Representative Duncan Hunter was asked this question during a rally, "Would you support deportation of natural-born American citizens that are the children of illegal aliens?" He says he definitely would, and he makes it clear that it's "not just to be mean" but simply because the U.S. cannot afford it. So he believes the country cannot afford to take care of children whom were born here, but we can however afford, for example, George Bush's decade-long war in the Middle East for dirty money and oil.

It never, ever fails to amaze me how conservatives are able to, each and every time, muster up enough passion and motivation to constantly discriminate against non-whites, non-Christians, homosexuals -- yet be completely oblivious to a seemingly never-ending global war and domestic racial profiling, corporatism, capitalism happening right here. They are a joke, professional and successful distributors of propaganda, taking advantage of vulnerable voters and supporters who apparently don't yet have the capabilities to realize that they themselves are the victims of these same leaders they continue to support.

Silence is their virtue apparently


The massive oil spill from last week's rig explosion is expected to hit the shores of Louisiana today. After that it will spread to the shores of Alabama; all the while putting over 400 species in danger, and of course preventing humans from swimming in the Gulf.

All the while GOP superstars and "Drill Baby Drill" advocates Sarah "slutty flight attendant" Palin and Michael "I throw bondage parties" Steele have yet to comment on this major story that claimed 11 lives along the way.

Seriously this is a complete bummer.

Another brown child becomes a white woman's commodity


Not that I think much of anything about celebrities (unless you're Morgan Freeman or Al Pacino) but I couldn't help but notice Sandra Bullock's face on the cover of People magazine with the caption "Meet my baby!". It could just as easily be interpreted as "Meet my new toaster oven!" or "Meet my new Cockerspaniel-Labrador mix!". And this after her chosen spouse was caught in bed with a known white supremacist marked up with permanent swastikas. Is this "adoption coming out party" her damage control for the submerged, racist, marital affair which overtook world news programs for weeks? Yes, it is.

I read an excellent article that touches on every point I would write about here, so I'm not even going to bother to avoid plagiarism. This is what's really happening with this pathetic excuse for "charity". It is not charity, it's vanity wrapped in post-racism. It's "The Blind Side" clashing with reality.

Red shirt, black pants

I'm not a big golf fan, but, Tiger's debacle is just another addition to the pathetic obsession America has with petty scandal. So he screwed some porn stars. That's not a ground-breaking crime. That's not even a crime.

I'm looking forward to watching this American legend take his game by storm again and maybe even win the Master's. And if he does, I wish him lots of celebration sex.

ma'as salama bare branches and gray skies

I spent about 5 hours outside today, I think even fell asleep once, because the weather is just that perfect. So glad summer is almost here; I know it's spring, but I'm a bigger lover of summer.


When I was a kid I used to get in trouble for wasting $30 of film on cloud shapes. If you look closely at this one you can see a bald man with a really long nose, no?
