Big Brother Phone Co’s Granted Lawsuit Immunity, While OUR Civil Rights Catch a BUG

Update: yesterday, the dirty dem controlled house passed a bill that gives labushanostra an additional $165,000,000,000.00 to continue the war the mainstream media is reporting the dirty dems are against continuing…

DAGNABIT! The two parties of the apocalypse rob us of our constitutionally protected civil rights AGAIN and AGAIN! This from the new york times:

Congress Reaches Deal on Wiretapping Bill

Published: June 20, 2008

WASHINGTON — After months of wrangling, Democratic and Republican leaders reached a deal Thursday that would re-write the rules for the government’s wiretapping powers, and would provide what amounts to limited immunity to the telephone companies that took part in President Bush’s warrantless eavesdropping program after the Sept. 11 attacks.

The deal would expand the government’s powers in some key respects. It would allow intelligence officials to use broad warrants to eavesdrop on foreign targets, and to conduct emergency wiretaps on American targets without warrants if it is determined that important national security information would be lost otherwise.

The deal would also make the phone companies involved in the post-Sept. 11 program immune from legal liability if a district court determines that they received valid requests from the government directing their participation in the warrantless wiretapping operation.

SONOFABUSH! This latest measure will be added to the military commissions act and the patriot act as yet another weapon of the fascist labushanostra lead government in washingtOOn’s arsenal of anti-democracy!

The dirty dems and filthy repubs ARE BIG BROTHER INCARNATE! They are trashing OUR constitution and robbing us of the civil rights granted us by the founding fathers! George Orwell had quite a bit to say back in his day. Most of what he said then has even more meaning now:

This latest assault on our civil rights also gives immunity to the thieving corpoRATeers at the phone companies! They are rotten unindited co-conspirators in this outrageous warrantless snooping! Now they are uninditable under this new law to boot!

WTF!? When are YOU gonna wake up? When are YOU gonna realize that our government is moving full speed toward DESPOTISM?

It’s not too late. YOU can block the two parties of the apocalypse from DESTROYING our democracy. All YOU have to do is support and vote for the only presidential candidate who will uphold his oath of office “to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic.”

House Leaders Agree on War Funding

Published: June 19, 2008

WASHINGTON — House leaders struck a bipartisan deal on Wednesday night on a major spending measure that would provide money for the war in Iraq through the end of the Bush administration, establish a significant new education benefit for veterans, and meet Democratic demands for added unemployment benefits.

The bill, which could be voted on as early as Thursday in the House, would effectively bring to a close the two-year battle between President Bush and Congressional Democrats over war financing by allocating about $163 billion for combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan through early next year without imposing conditions like a withdrawal deadline.

—clip—

There you have it in red, the very same color of the ink being used to indicate the deficit spending imposed on us by the dirty dems and filthy repubs!

The part of the article I highlighted in coward yellow indicates the bloody truth about the dirty dems. They are NEGOTIATING WITH THE FILTHY repubs TO CONTINUE FUNDING THE DISASTER OF A WAR!

The co-joined syphilitic twins of the apocalypse AKA mcbama will continue the war with no exit strategy in sight! A vote for mcPain OR nobama is a vote to continue the disaster of a war!

DAGNABIT! YOU are to blame. All YOU damn fools that voted the dems into control of the house and senate in 2006. YOU have as much blood on your hands as the IDIOTS that voted the bush crime family into the white house in 2000 and 2004! YOU have a chance to wash your hands of this blood!

Colleagues Pass Tribute To Lawmaker’s Daughter

Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, June 15, 2008; Page A04

Had things turned out differently, Caroline Pryce Walker would have graduated from high school this month.

Instead, her mother, Rep. Deborah Pryce, stood on the House floor Wednesday evening and introduced a bill in Caroline’s name that would boost research funding for pediatric cancer — the kind that killed Caroline nine years ago.

“This is our graduation gift to her,” said Pryce, an Ohio Republican, choking back tears. She is retiring in December after 16 years in Congress, choosing to care for her daughter Mia, whom she adopted in 2002, three years after Caroline’s death.

Pryce, the only member of Congress who is a single mother of a young child, was once a rising star in the GOP. But she was facing a tough reelection fight in a district that is increasingly leaning Democratic, and she was growing tired of trying to balance work in Washington with home life in Ohio. So she decided not to run again.

—clip—

Lets talk about this filthy repub pryce. She is one of the useless dogs that got swept into office in the 1994 “gingrinch revolution.” This is the rotten group that foisted the “contract on america” on YOU damn fools. I never bought it, and in concert with the slick willy radical moderate democratic leadership council agenda, it lead to the failed bush agenda that our country is now suffering the effects of. This woman pryce is simply another of the two parties of the apocalypse unindited co-conspirators. She and the rest of the useless dogs in our federal government have screwed us. Good riddance to her.

Support and vote for the only candidate for president that will solve our problems!

Obama veep vetting team looks at retired military

By NEDRA PICKLER and MARY CLARE JALONICK, Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON - Barack Obama is considering former top military leaders among his possible running mates, according to senators who met Tuesday with the Democratic presidential candidate’s vice presidential vetting team.

North Dakota Sen. Kent Conrad told The Associated Press that the team asked him about potential candidates from three broad categories — current top elected officials, former top elected officials and former top military leaders.

Conrad would not disclose which names they discussed, and the Obama campaign has been keeping the process a closely guarded secret.

“We talked about many names,” Conrad said, including “some that are out of the box, but I think would be very well-received by the American people, including former top military leaders.”

A running mate from the military ranks could help address concerns that Obama lacks foreign policy experience, having served just three years in the Senate. It could also provide a counterpoint to the military bonafides of the Republican ticket, which will be led by Vietnam war hero John McCain.

—clip—

Don’t that just beat all, DAGNABIT! The dem fool shows his militarist hand by looking at former military personnel for his veep. When you add the fascist remarks of nobama at the recent AIPAC meeting, it becomes very clear that nobama is pro-war. SONOFABUSH! Further proof is provided by his repeatedly voting to continue funding the disaster of a war! This radical moderate is clearly a son of the failed dem centrist model first foisted on the electorate by slick willy clinton.

How does this stupid veep plan play into mcPain’s hands?

Does anyone remember this damn fool?

The above former anti Vietnam war activist, cum senator ran for prez in 2004 as a war hero. If this idiot dem had run AGAINST THE DISASTER OF A WAR, he would have won in 2004 in a landslide!

So nobama, by showing himself to be pro-war, may be setting himself up for a repeat of the failed karry election strategy! That means four more years of labushanostra policies, with made man mcPain as the new capo.

It’s time for YOU to realize that the radical moderate dirty dems and the right wing wacko filthy repubs have had their chance to prove they can lead our country.

They have FAILED YOU AGAIN AND AGAIN! If you are happy with the sorry state our country is presently in. Feel free to vote for nobama or mcPain. You will get the same old, same old from either of the CorpoRATeer co-joined twins of the apocalypse, mcbama!

If on the other hand YOU are sick and tired of being sick and tired. VOTE FOR THE ONLY CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT THAT OFFERS REAL CHANGE:

More Love of the two party system at the intergalactic times…

The defense of the indefensible disaster that is the two party system continues via pressmin spurious:

vote theft leads to full blown co-option

By Pressmin Spurious,
Intergalactic Times staff reporter

My dear readers. As I have been chronicling in this column, our beloved two party electoral system is under full fledged attack! The vote spoilers continue to set the very foundations of our two party electoral system ablaze! Now comes the grim report that Al Franken has had the unmitigated gall to steal the votes that were supposed to go to, um that professor guy, what’s his name…

Anyway, this Franken guy is the crown prince of pinko vote spoilers. He once famously referred to my media colleague, Rush Limbaugh, as “a big, fat, idiot”! Franken has also been relentless in his attacks on the best damn TV news team in the world, those steadfast supporters of the two party system over at FOX! Add to this that rumors abound that Franken is a homosexual and he drives a foreign made hybrid automobile!

This turn of events is clearly evidence that the two parties need meet behind closed doors to craft a strategy that will defend the two party system from these ongoing electoral failures. TSK TSK, for shame on the Minnesota Democratic primary voters! You have clearly been coned into giving your local party over to the clown prince of commies!

It is still unclear to this reporter how this Birkenstock wearing, tofu eating, New York Yankee cheering, effete snob Franken expects to avoid a subpoena from the house unrepublican activities committee. One thing is certain, this is another proof THAT THIS IS THE YEAR THAT A CANDIDATE FROM OUTSIDE THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM CAN BECOME PRESIDENT!

ROFL! pressmin is beside himself with suffering as the two party system hits the fan! Good on the fine folks in Minnesota! Of course they also voted jesse vetura in as their governor, and that was a real mess.

In any case I hope the people of Minnesota and all the rest of my fellow Americans will join with me in voting for the man who will be the best damn president this country has ever had:

VOTENADER.ORG

The Telepathic Crickets™ on the ClapSotronics editorial board and I would like to paraphrase Red Green:

If you can’t vote for a competent candidate, at least vote for an entertaining one.

We believe that Al Franken will at least add some very much needed comic relief to the senate, if nothing else…

Another sham “party” steals votes

By Pressmin Spurious

Intergalactic Times staff reporter

Things are truly bleak on the election front. This reporter has never seen the like. First this young upstart Obama steals the votes of the rightful democratic presidential nominee, Clinton. Then this Barr fellow, with the help of the phony libertarian “party”, has entered the presidential contest and is attempting to steal votes from McCain. Now Ralph Nader is polling at SIX PERCENT in the most recent AP national presidential poll, and without ANY party at all! No good can come of any of this! What’s worse, this vote thievery is spreading to local elections!

At the recent Massachusetts Democratic Convention, some guy named Ed O’Reilly had the unmitigated gall to force a primary battle with current Massachusetts Senator John Karry! This is the first time Kerry has faced a primary opponent since 1984. What’s worse, this Ed guy did this dirty deed with the help of yet another phony ripoff group. The oxymoronic “Progressive Democrats of America”. Everyone knows that the Democratic party, the real one, is a centrist party. There simply are no “progressives” to be found among true democrats. In any case, progressive is just the new name for commie!

The time has come for all these self styled “progressives” to be hauled before the house unrepublican activities committee! Saint Joe McCarthy is rolling in his grave over this “progressive” assault on our beloved two party system! This reporter is beside himself with suffering at the disastrous prospect THAT THIS COULD BE THE YEAR THAT A CANDIDATE FROM OUTSIDE THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM WINS THE PRESIDENCY!

**SNICKER** Poor pressmin is drowning in the mainstream, isn’t he? He did get one thing right though, the dirty dems are now under the control of radical moderate centrist dogs! The pda is just a smokescreen to give cover to the true nature of the dirty dems!

VOTE FOR THE ONLY REAL PROGRESSIVE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT:

VOTENADER.ORG

The Telepathic Crickets™ on the ClapSotronics editorial board and I are looking forward to seeing Nader make quick work of the other candidates in the presidential debates! If I’m not mistaken, the six percent Nader polled means the two parties of the apocalypse must let him in the debates. Unless those dem and repub dogs changed the rules again!

IS IT FAIR?

In these trying times it becomes easy to get lost in the day to day personal struggles we are all involved in, and forget who is to blame for the current mess our country and world is knee deep in. In an effort to keep YOU convinced that you are free and that your well being, or lack thereof, IS YOUR OWN FAULT. The bullshit industry will always make the failed “psychological perspective” the reason behind why YOU are responsible and the power elite are not. This is pure nonsense.

Sense of Fairness Affects Outlook, Decisions

Washington Post Staff Writer
Monday, June 9, 2008; Page A08

American workers are hurting. The country is in an economic slump, thousands of people are being laid off, and hundreds of companies are retrenching. With house values falling in many parts of the country and with gas prices soaring, many people are struggling from paycheck to paycheck.

The unfolding shakeout might ultimately be good for the economy, but it can be extremely painful for individuals. For companies, managing change is very important, not only for the well-being of their employees but also because to succeed, they need employees who are engaged, enthusiastic and energized — and not burned out.

A pair of psychologists recently evaluated hundreds of employees at a large North American university that was in the grip of painful change. The researchers wanted to find out whether there were factors that explained why some employees successfully weathered the transition and reengaged with their jobs, while others spiraled into cynicism and exhaustion — the classic signs of burnout.

Burnout has been long associated with being overworked and underpaid, but psychologists Christina Maslach and Michael Leiter found that these were not the crucial factors. The single biggest difference between employees who suffered burnout and those who did not was the whether they thought that they were being treated unfairly or fairly.

“These fairness issues can be huge,” said Maslach, a social psychologist at the University of California at Berkeley. “Issues around fairness are highly linked to the anger and cynicism that are linked to burnout.”

Is it fair for the bullshit industry to attempt to convince you that “The unfolding shakeout might ultimately be good for the economy” while completely ignoring the fact that the corpoRATeers own the bullshit industry? I THINK NOT!

Is it fair to proclaim that there may be “factors that explained why some employees successfully weathered the transition and reengaged with their jobs, while others spiraled into cynicism and exhaustion — the classic signs of burnout.” without blaming the corpoRATeer lead failure of our political economy? ITHINK NOT!

The power elite and their bullshit industry apologists are DESPERATE to convince you that it is YOUR OWN FAULT that the world is going to hell in a hand basket. They want you to BELIEVE that there are techniques YOU CAN USE to make YOURSELF a “rugged individual” and that YOU can “weather” the economic storm all by yourself, if only you will “believe YOU are being treated fairly.”

They want YOU to avoid “Issues around fairness are highly linked to the anger and cynicism that are linked to burnout.”

They are telling you not to worry your little pin heads about the wider SOCIAL ISSUES that are the cause of the power elite corpoRATeer political and economic failure. The only thing you need do is BELIEVE that YOU are being treated fairly, ALL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY BE DAMNED!

I’m here to tell YOU that YOU are NOT BEING TREATED FAIRLY! YOU ARE BEING SCREWED BY THE TWO PARTIES OF THE APOCALYPSE! YOU need to understand that so long as you let them DIVIDE US they will continue to CONQUER US! WE need move away from the dirty dems and filthy repubs. WE must instead support and vote for THE ONLY PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE THAT WILL INSURE US FAIR TREATMENT:

Clinton Ready to End Bid and Endorse Obama

Published: June 5, 2008

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton will endorse Senator Barack Obama on Saturday, bringing a close to her 17-month campaign for the White House, aides said. Her decision came after Democrats urged her Wednesday to leave the race and allow the party to coalesce around Mr. Obama.
Howard Wolfson, one of Mrs. Clinton’s chief strategists, and other aides said she would express support for Mr. Obama and party unity at an event in Washington that day. One adviser said Mrs. Clinton would concede defeat, congratulate Mr. Obama and proclaim him the party’s nominee, while pledging to do what was needed to assure his victory in November.
—clip—

Good riddance to her I say! With any luck a competent, truly progressive, anti-war candidate will unseat her in the senate come her next attempt to gain reelection. It sickens me to be “represented” by her. My home state of New York deserves better then her and her corpoRATeer ilk! With any luck, this loss will bring her political career to an end. Then she can get a job as a greeter at her beloved walmart…

As to this pro-nuke, (the nuclear industry being one of his biggest campaign contributers, DAGNABIT!) pro-war, nitwit nobama, SONOFABUSH! He has now repeatedly voted to continue to fund the disaster of a war and will not end it if he gains the oval office! He is as bad as his repub challenger mcPain. Anyone that believes that voting mcbama will “change” anything is foolish. The dirty dems and filthy repubs are in cahoots!

It’s time to bring on the new and improved three stooges of the apocalypse, sans hillary, dillary, doo. I have decided that I must add the refried stale repub burrito named barr to take her clintoness’s place in the larry slot among the three stooges of the apocalypse. This barr guy is the consummate washingtOOn insider, trying to come off all outsider like. WHAT A CROCK!

Lets see what the new and improved stooges have to say:

MOE (aka mugsy mcPain)

I support the troops and can spin on my head while spitting nickels out my ass! NYUK, NYUK, NYUK…

LARRY (AKA barrOOM the refried repub burrito)

I have balls this big (see above photo) NYUK, NYUK NYUK…

CURLY (AKA sweet talkin’ slim)

I have the audacity to hope my verbal curly shuffle will con you into believing that I represent change, all evidence to the contrary! La dee dee, la dee dah…

Who’s to Blame for the bush Disaster?

The time has come to hold the criminal failures responsible for, well, THEIR CRIMINAL FAILURES! Speaking of criminals. Here’s the war criminal in chief:

How did this lump of shit get into the white house? Who helped him get there? Let’s start with this loser:

Because the IDIOT pictured above could not keep his pants on during working hours, that lump of shit bush had an opening. No BJ in the oval office, al bore wins easy in 2000. Speaking of bore:

The IDIOT pictured above was too busy “inventing the internet” to run a credible enough campagin in 2000 to CARRY HIS HOME STATE! If bore had carried his HOME STATE he would have won in 2000! Speaking of karrying:

The IDIOT pictured above made his political career by being ANTI-WAR! So how does he run for president in 2004? AS A WAR HERO! Smart move. Speaking of making a move:

The lady who does lunch pictured above became speaker in 2006. Did she move to IMPEACH? Nope, she took impeachment of the war criminal “off the table.” She is the latest dem to criminally fail us.

Who else is to blame? YOU ARE! All YOU IDIOTS that voted dem in 2000, 2004, 2006 and who are gonna do it again in NOVEMBER 2008. I have warned YOU again and again. THE DEMS ARE IN CAHOOTS WITH THE REPUBS! Vote the dems the white house and you’ll just continue to ENABLE THE DIRTY DEMS TO FAIL US!

There is only one candidate for president that will change things for the better:

VOTENADER.ORG

The Telepathic Crickets™ on the ClapSotronics editorial board and I hope you aren’t thinking of voting dem AGAIN! If you want an end to the disaster of a war, don’t vote dem. They will continue to fund this disaster of a war just like the repubs will! So long as you’re happy with the way things are going here in the USA vote dem or repub for more of the same.
