March, 2010:
We’re Playing “Let’s Pretend”…
Imagine that you were a politician (disgusting, I know, but try…). Imagine that you were trying to pass a wildly unpopular piece of shit legislation, that your overlord boss insisted must be passed (something to do with the end of civilization as we know it). But, your quivering slimeballs comrades in this endeavor don’t want anyone to know what they have done.
So The Wicked Witch of the House Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi wants the House to vote on a more popular package of fixes to the Senate “Health Care Reform bill“; under the House rule for that vote, passage would signify that lawmakers “deem” the health-care bill to be passed. This sounds like “Let’s Pretend” to me.
It is one of three options that Pelosi said she is considering for a late-week House vote, but she added that she prefers it because it would politically protect lawmakers who are reluctant to publicly support the measure.
God Forbid that we should have and accountability or transparency in government! God Forbid that any of our elected representatives should have to admit that they voted to pass a bill that slightly over half of the American public doesn’t want.
We don’t want this bill
No, Sir we don’t
We want it not,
We don’t , We don’t
Can’t you hear,
it’s not for us.
How many ways can we say NO
I’ve said my piece, I think I’ll go
By the way MY ANSWER IS (STILL) NO.
What part of “No” don’t they understand?????
Support Amazon.com
Amazon.com as you probably know by now, unless you live under a rock, has suspended it’s affiliate accounts in Colorado. This is due to the Colorado Legislature passing a new law (HB 10-1193) imposing sales tax regulations on online retailers. The new regulations do not require online retailers to collect sales tax. Instead, they are clearly intended to increase the compliance burden to a point where online retailers will be induced to “voluntarily” collect Colorado sales tax .
I was an Amazon affiliate and even though I can no longer receive any revenue from them as an affiliate, I still support their decision.
When are the idiots people running the asylum governing “we the sheep people” going to clean the wax out of their ears and listen – WE ARE TIRED OF TAXES, NEW TAXES, OLD TAXES, TAXES ON EVERYTHING WE DO, BUY, SELL, OR THINK ABOUT. ARE YOU LISTENING YET????
Try fiscal responsibility for a change. Stop adding new and glorious layers of bureaucracy, paying your pals for crap we don’t need, studying things that don’t need studied, and passing laws we don’t want or need.
GET A CLUE.

Your kid can get salmonella from his new pet turtle,
Buckle your seat belt or through the windshield you will hurtle,
You can choke on anything not bigger than your head,
Everything is dangerous, so how come you’re not dead?
You might poke your eye out with any given toy,
You might die from allergies to peanuts, wheat, or soy,
All these deadly circumstances we cannot improve,
Everything is dangerous, so please try not to move.
Terrorists are everywhere, in every school and mall,
And it might be better if you don’t touch cheese at all.
All the other drivers are insane and they’ve got guns,
Don’t pick up hitchhikers, even if they’re dressed as nuns,
Your date has GHB, he hopes tomorrow you’ll forget him,
Everything is dangerous, so go ahead and wet ‘em.
Dihydrogen monoxide will surely spell your doom,
It might just be easier if you don’t leave the room.
Make sure that your sunscreen is at least SPF 30,
Don’t eat food in restaurants, the chef’s hands might be dirty,
Gay men want your body and they can’t control their urges,
Monks have secret messages they’re chanting in their dirges.
Magnetic waves from in your cell phone just might fry your brain,
There’s a flying spaghetti monster in your beef chow mein,
Paris Hilton might explode, I saw it on Fox News,
Everything is dangerous, including Starburst chews.
Keep yourself hydrated or you’ll pass out from the heat,
Watch out for a wormhole openin’ up beneath your feet,
Motorcyclists with tattoos just got out of the joint,
Homeless people have diseases, so don’t stare and point.
From the moment that you’re born until the day you die,
Everything might kill you, and a lot of things will try,
So you’ve got two choices, and they’re easy to compare,
Everything is dangerous, or everything’s just there.
Everything is dangerous, so suck it up, mon frere.
I just knew it… can I say “I told you so…”???
