Green Eagle

From the Wall Street Journal: "WASHINGTON—The Obama administration and BP PLC are close to a deal to use future revenues from the oil giant's Gulf of Mexico operations to guarantee its $20 billion cleanup and compensation fund" I wonder how long it will be before the Obama administration makes a deal to allow burglars to pay reparations using funds from further burglaries. Let the God Damned company go bankrupt, Barack. And then fire anyone in your administration that went along with this idiotic idea. It's about time you figured out who your friends are, buddy.

I see a lot of liberals trying to figure out what in hell the new preposterous Republican campaign against the fourteenth amendment is about. It just doesn't seem to make much sense as a meaningful way to countrol immigration. Well, today I thought I'd read the amendment, and I found something in it that I didn't remember, which has nothing to do with "anchor babies" or immigrants at all, and which really made me think. Well, here it is: "The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned." Well, what do you know? Could this be part of the conservative plan, which we already know includes looting the wealth of our country to give to the rich? Without the repeal of the fourteenth amendment, it wouldn't be possible for them to just default on our national debt, and on all pensions which ...

Isn't this nice: " WASHINGTON—Former Vice President Dick Cheney was released from a suburban Washington hospital on Monday following surgery last month to install a pump that helps his failing heart work. The battery-powered pump is mainly used for short periods by a heart transplant candidate awaiting a donor organ. Such devices are being studied for use by people with severe heart failure who aren't candidates for transplants." Donor organs? Boy, if anyone wastes a heart on this guy... P.S.- I don't think you are going to see me sinking into a deep depression over the death of uber-corrupt former Senator Ted Stevens, either.

From The Atlantic: "Rand Paul's Bong-Fueled Kidnapping Spree, Idol Worship" And yet he still may very well win a seat in the Senate, with his Republican buddies standing behind him. Life is amusing, huh?

Yes, here it is, Green Eagle's Book of the Month: Who knew that Moses was a Bolshevist? You learn something every day! And here I never even knew that he went to Russia. I guess I need to read my bible a little closer. Now, don't get too excited. The book is only 89 pages long, and I bet the print is real big too. Just perfect for a six months' read for our friends on the right, but most of us would probably get through it in about an hour, if you don't count the time it takes to get back in your chair after you repeatedly fall out laughing. And who is the guy on the cover there? Moses? Hitler before he went on his vegetarian diet? I know it's not Lenin. Lenin was a lot cuter than that. Well, all in all, I can't really recommend this book. I just don't see how Dietrich can adequately cover 3000 years of Jewish communism in only 89 pages. Why, I bet the story of Samson's Marxist terrorism alone would take several chapters.

To continue a story I have mentioned, but isn't attracting much attention elsewhere: "MOSCOW – Deaths in Moscow have doubled to an average of 700 people a day as the Russian capital is engulfed by poisonous smog from wildfires and a sweltering heat wave, a top health official said Monday.Moscow health chief Andrei Seltsovky blamed weeks of unprecedented heat and suffocating smog." Well, I guess we are going to have to get to the point where 700 people a day are dying in some American city before the greedy corporate bastards and ignorant, stupid suckers finally wake up to what is going on in this country. Until then, I guess we will just have to live with stories like this, from the "Astute Bloggers:" "San Francisco, July temperatures coolest since 1971 Germany, first 6 months of 2010 coldest in 14 years San Diego,, coldest July since 1933 Brazil, tropical fish freezing Peru,declares emergency due to plunging temperatures" And other ...

Man, these people are really getting on my nerves. It's hard to laugh at them when they are so close to destroying us all with their greed and their hatred. But we'll keep on trying. Today's biggest scandal on the right seems to be the appalling fact that Michelle Obama has taken her girls on a vacation. This is clearly the most horrible Obama abuse of power since...oh, since the last five hundred bogus claims. Now, the Green Eagle Trophy for Seeing Yourself In Others Without An Ounce of Shame goes to: Confederate Yankee: "The Democratic Party has fractured, and the extremists in the Democratic leadership are giddy at the thought of purging themselves of moderate Democrats." Boy, you could never use that sentence to describe the Republicans and the teabaggers, huh? No, they're way too smart for that. Ross Mackenzie, Town Hall: "Blame It All on the Republicans and Bush" Right on, Ross. Oh wait. You were being sarcastic. Darn, I thought you we...
