A President's Day for Barack
His spending's a national shock
A Nobel is cool
But to honor this fool
His face has been chiseled in rock

Found in the NYT's, wedged between an advertisement for 2 for 1 cans of pork & beans something to do with ballet:
-----------
Correction: February 15, 2015
An earlier version of this column incorrectly stated that teacher layoffs in Milwaukee in 2010 happened because Gov. Scott Walker “cut state aid to education.” The layoffs were made by the city’s school system because of a budget shortfall, before Mr. Walker took office in 2011.

Well, thanks for that, 2 for 1 pork & beans! ;-)

Femikazi...lol.
Did you notice Paul McCartney's face the other day on SNL?
He looks like Bruce Jenner's Brother. Also brings to mind some recent Paul McCartney Album where his voice seems feminized. The 1 or 2 songs I heard on the Media made Paul McCartney sound like an old woman.
Very Weird.
There is a lot to be said for aging well.
Like Keith Richards, hit it early & often and get it mostly over with by 30. Everything beyond is gravy, the shock value of appearance is gone and you leave no one mistaking who & what you are.
Well preserved ;-)

Nice work once again. Here is another shitstorm brewing once again...
How “omnipotent” hackers tied to NSA hid for 14 years—and were found at last "Equation Group" ran the most advanced hacking operation ever uncovered.http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/02/how-omnipotent-hackers-tied-to-t...
CANCUN, Mexico — In 2009, one or more prestigious researchers received a CD by mail that contained pictures and other materials from a recent scientific conference they attended in Houston. The scientists didn't know it then, but the disc also delivered a malicious payload developed by a highly advanced hacking operation that had been active since at least 2001. The CD, it seems, was tampered with on its way through the mail.
It wasn't the first time the operators—dubbed the "Equation Group" by researchers from Moscow-based Kaspersky Lab—had secretly intercepted a package in transit, booby-trapped its contents, and sent it to its intended destination. In 2002 or 2003, Equation Group members did something similar with an Oracle database installation CD in order to infect a different target with malware from the group's extensive library. (Kaspersky settled on the name Equation Group because of members' strong affinity for encryption algorithms, advanced obfuscation methods, and sophisticated techniques.)
Kaspersky researchers have documented 500 infections by Equation Group in at least 42 countries, with Iran, Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, Syria, and Mali topping the list. Because of a self-destruct mechanism built into the malware, the researchers suspect that this is just a tiny percentage of the total; the actual number of victims likely reaches into the tens of thousands.

Headline in Breitbart... Three senior house Democrats beg the Obama administration to bend Obamacare laws to avoid their constituents being forced to pay a heavty fine next year. Lots of angry, sarcastic responses to the article, but neither the article or the responses so much as hinted at the real issue.
When I was in the seventh grade ( gads, almost 50 years ago now) I was exposed for the first time to the lessons regarding the Roman senate, and the relationship between them and the first emperors... and the slippery slope into dictatotorship as the senate gradually relinquished its authority to the emperor... and I remember thinking 'why would a body of men willingly yield power to a single individual'. Well, the last years have certainly answered that question.
House Democrats, the legislative branch of government, begging the excutitive to assume their authority... this goes beyond simply standing by idly and watching it happen. The rule of law is utterly dead... not even the pretense exist. Congress are officially influence peddlers.
All hail the Emperor.

At dinner I asked "What day is tomorrow?."
My 12 year old daughter said "It's President's Day!"
She's a smart kid, so then I asked "What does President's Day mean?"
I was waiting for something about Washington or Lincoln.
She replied, "President's Day is when President Obama steps out of the White House and if he sees his shadow, we have 4 more years of Bullshit."Treasure those moments.
It's a time as a parent, when you know you are doing something right;)
Pardon, GENTS!
Excuse me for saying so, but aren't you being a little too English, too Understated.
Bull Shit doesn't cover every situation you disagree with. It is totally Inadequate for this Situation of Lawlessness, Government COUP, Control of the Federal Government by at Least 3 Powerful Factions: 1) Corporate & Wealthy Interests 2) MIC 3) Financial Giants 4) Some "Cultish" interest in Zionism, Global Dominance, Ruthless Rape, Murder, and Mayhem of Common People in other countries 5) Government Employees & Government Contractors who don't give a crap who they hurt, who they spy on, and if their descendent end up dumb, broke, jailed, slaves.
From seeing a Great Democracy, to seeing a Bloated Festering Cow Vomit on my children....
Racketeering, Corruption, Treason... We are back under King George.
It is not Bull Shit; it is "Fucking Feudalism".
We have started a new Crusades. But with Corporate Contracts and support of Middle Eastern Government Heads... Their is no way the New Caliphate can win. But I try not to underestimate the power of Mobs, Mass Social Unrest, and Revolutions.
It is a Crusade since we Drone & Bomb Women & Kids, Force whole regions of refugees into camps with disease, rape, murder, and we use torture, rendition, secret prisons, and we suppress the news, transparency, human costs, financial costs, and who is going to pay for the Crazy Scheme set out by the NeoCONs.
Life is cheap for a Neocon. And they love controlling your lifestyle, increasing your cost of living, taxing you, giving you 70,000 new regulations each year, and Federalizing you country to secure more total power & control. That is why we have billions of government secrets; it is to control "YOU". This kind of control is a feature of a Military Republic, but you could call it Fascist.
"The presidency must be destroyed. It is the primary evil we face, and the cause of nearly all our woes. It squanders the national wealth and starts unjust wars against foreign peoples that have never done us any harm. It wrecks our families, tramples on our rights, invades our communities, and spies on our bank accounts. It skews the culture towards decadence and trash. It tells lie after lie. Teachers used to tell schools kids that anyone can be president. This is like saying anyone can go to Hell. It’s not an inspiration; it’s a threat.
The presidency — by which I mean the executive state — is the sum total of American tyranny. The other branches of government, including the presidentially appointed Supreme Court, are mere adjuncts. The presidency insists on complete devotion and humble submission to its dictates, even while its steals the products of our labor and drives us into economic ruin. It centralizes all power unto itself, and crowds out all competing centers of power in society, including the church, the family, the business, the charity, and the community."

I politely disagree. I think central banks and despots create wars. Lincoln was a despot and a tyrant. Nothing Obama or Bush has tried to circumvent the constitution wasn't tried or at least pondered by old dishonest Abe. These modern guys have just perfected constitutional shredding, though aided greatly by the 70 or so years of intentional dumbing down of the populace.
Point o' Odor!!!
"It squanders the national wealth and starts unjust wars against foreign peoples that have never done us any harm".
You left out the domestic war that Lincoln waged, causing the loss of 5% of the male population.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Millions of immigrants benefiting from President Barack Obama's executive actions could get a windfall from the IRS, a reversal of fortune after years of paying taxes to help fund government programs they were banned from receiving.

That's great! On top of the fraudulent tax returns they already get paid out they are getting more back taxes... No need to provide proof becuase they won't audit them.

Today is still, legally, celebrated as Washington's birthday. Barack Obama already has his own holiday - he was grafted into it, actually - on April 1. I would never celebrate any 'Presidents Day' that included any of the currently living presidents.
Actually Obama is a Metal Ox.

Thanks to people like Senator Paul!
Well I like to consider suggestions from outside the box.
- Tho Clearly an Entitlist, who drones people on Main Street in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Libya
- Ehud Barak born Ehud Brog; (born 12 February 1942) is an Israeli politician who served as Prime Minister from 1999 to 2001
- Barak, Jewish Hero, the son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali, was a military commander in the Book of Judges in the Bible, who with Deborah the prophetess, defeated the Canaanite armies led by Sisera.
- Barack Obama II, (born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States, and the first African American to hold the office, first African American descendent of CIA grandfather to be president, may have been part of secret mind control or child soldier program for the United States, selected in 2008 to be in Anglo-American Banking Elite with diplomatic status
- Now where did Obama get the idea that life was so cheap in third world countries... I wonder... Could it be an Zionist-NeoCON-NATO-British thing?
Late Add:
Opening up to Cuba & Iran... allows the CIA or other NATO Friendly Spies to have contact with officials and the militaries of these countries. Iranian military may find themselves sitting down with CIA and hearing tantalizing offers of wealth or opportunity. Cuban travel exchanges with the USA allows US to place Business & Government Leaders to identify Cuban Leaders for corruption.
"- Now where did Obama get the idea that life was so cheap in third world countries... I wonder... Could it be an Zionist-NeoCON-NATO-British thing?"
To answer your question----Progressives kill their own babies just to warm up. The Brits are progressive as they come. Neocons are progressive light. George Soros tuned his own people in to be run thru the gas chambers when he was a kid.
Why the dance around the obvious? Just come out and say it .
PROGRESSIVES KILL.
There, see?

Say prior to WWII there were hard core, fascist type Jews... say they favored other jews, but were very hard nosed, aggressive, bad asses. But in Munich or Berlin you had Liberal Jews. In either case they were well educated, well read, strong in trade craft, strong in government, strong in arts.
After WWII... the USA had see the strength of the Jews and the Nazis... and got lots of ideas from the war experience that made them a world super power.
The US wanted to be Allies with all nations to get the advantages of markets, resource, spy craft, weapons, science, government.
So the US Brokered deals with everyone, then established secret networks to fight against possible communist invasion, it set up NATO and it set up the European Community.
But say it also married the Jews & the Fascist. The US Government had a faction that wanted to promote Right Wing Strength against the Communist Threat.
And in Liberalism there was always opportunities to Black Mail, Coerce, Control peoples of all levels of society... well mostly if they had something to lose like Wife, Kids, House, Good Job, Respect, Status, Wealth. So the Progressive Ideas are valuable to the CIA, the Right Wing, to Spies of our Allies.
Having half a nation of Liberals and half a nation of Conservatives works out well if you want to control people, control assets, gather intelligence, control government, and control the US Elections and Presidency.
You see this is the problem with control of the Internet and Domestic Spying. We had a Government Coup at least by 1981, but who knows how father the Right Wing got before that.
The good news: Fascism makes us stronger, it is a strong model. Rome, Alexandre the Great, the Mongol Hordes. But it means there are a many economic losers like your mother, father, Grand Parents, future generations, and the Economy has to be destroyed before new governments are formed.
The Bad News: You lose your family wealth and Life Style choices under Fascism. You can't live in the country or on a mountain if a President Obama decides the land is a national resource or something else. Fascism also requires taxes as a method of control. Taxes just because. Control of the people is the most important thing. We print more money each year than is admitted. They don't need Federal taxes at all.
Question: How much money is created each year by TBTF Banks, by Private Hedge Funds? They don't seem to collect the data. There is no Transparency. The Bankers/Fascist have the Printing Charter on USD. You Don't. And you don't know how much USD is created Each year in total by the FED, by Wall Street Banks. Or you are smarter than this simple man.

Wow, what is Snowden doing hanging out with a gang of freemasons? Or is he just another anglozionist trying to break into level 33?

James Perloff has a great piece about "our founding fathers" and their never ending false flags:
http://jamesperloff.com/2014/12/09/the-american-revolution-part-i-the-se...
So I stand by my premise: what is Snowden doing in this photoshopped fightclub image? Washington was a tyrant as general and often as president. All of these guys, members of a small minority, dragged the majority of the country into a war that bankrupted the country and led to the federal government denying the right of secession to the south and then eventually ignoring the entire constitution. If Snowden wants to be remembered and honored like the "founding fathers" then he is, like them, anglozionist scum.
