Sarah Palin is not just an idiot, but a dangerous idiot.

It's been said by many, including those on the right, in fact I do believe former Republican Christopher Hitchen was the first. Sarah Palin is not just an idiot, but a dangerous idiot. I will now use her latest act of stupidity, making the allegation that their will be death panels that decide the fate of children like her son, and implying that they will choose euthanasia over long term care, based on their economic value to society. To prove beyond any reasonable doubt that she is not only an idiot, but a dangerous idiot.

For starters she did this despite the fact that every American citizen with severe mental, and/or, physical disability is already being taken care of by the government run social security programs that helps families, or simply take over all care when family is not in the picture. The fact that she said this can only mean a few things. First, she was told to say this and squawked it out like a pea brained parrot that has no concept of the weight that words carry with them. Second, she thought this little gem up on her own, and put it out there for the purpose of creating fear. Third, whether she was told this, or came to her own conclusion is a moot point if she does in fact believe the bull. Let us examine why these are all dangerous.

If she did simply, squawk like a parrot, what she was told to, then she is a puppet. Puppets are dangerous because they are controlled from a far by pulling strings. We the people never get to know, see, or hold accountable, the puppet masters. These unseen individuals can be anyone from party hacks, special interest, or religious loons in the order of the christian coalition, or worse. Point being she doesn't think, feel, or act with out the input of some outside force. This is dangerous.

If she thought this one up on her own then she is a fear monger of the worst degree. Failing to understand the natural progression of human emotion. Fear leads to panic, then chaos, destruction, anger, then hate, and if you hate someone, something, or some group enough you wind up with atrocities on a grand scale. Many of histories most notorious monsters used this to great effect. Remember their are people like Orly Taitz who believe that their is some grand conspiracy, and that their country was stolen from them. People that truly believe that, are also truly desperate, and will fight back at any cost against an imaginary enemy, and they will spill blood. I realize that as I describe this darkness, that I myself am stirring emotions of fear, but I am at a loss on how to describe fear itself, the only real thing that we should be fearful of, as FDR pointed out in his historic 1933 inaugural address. "So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear... is fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance." Fear-mongers are dangerous. Especially the idiotic ones that can't see beyond their own nose, or to where fear leads.

Last but not least, far from it in fact, if she believes this bull. If she is willing to believe that, their will be government sponsored death panels that are willing to send children to their death, then what else is she willing to believe? That the earth was created 5000 years ago? In "holy wars" that are the will of God? That the "end times" are upon us? That she has a holy role to play, and that it might be her christian duty to rain fire across the land in the form of a nuclear holocaust? Where does she draw the line? I ask because I haven't seen her draw one yet, and that worries me. The founding fathers believe that nobody should be discriminated against because of their religious believes, but then again their were no nukes back then either. They also believed in separation of church and state, Thomas Jefferson coined the term him self. It is wholly unconstitutional for the government, to promote the will of god, or any other deity, by pen, or by rifle. Yet people like Sarah Palin ignore all that, and use government to promote their own narrow view of the bible. If people like Sarah Palin are willing to ignore the first amendment, what about the rest? Will someone like her run for an unlimited number of Presidential terms because they claim it to be god's will? What about the bill of rights? or human rights? Are non-christians subhuman in her eyes? Will we be forced to convert to a narrow view of the christian belief if we want to vote, go to school, or get a job? Can you see why I have a problem with her? Can you see why she is a dangerous idiot?

I think I stated my case pretty well. I think any reasonable person would read this, and come to the same conclusion as I have. Sarah Palin is a dangerous idiot, and should be kept as far away from the white house as possible. I rest my case, and make my exit. I need a drink.

Obama market connection only valid when it's on the down swing? Bull Shit!

The right has a hobby, blame the 10 year in the making market meltdown on their favorite negro-in-chief, their words not mine, President Barack Obama. Right leaning market witch doctors have been at this even before Obama took office. Of course if you've been following the stock market you'll notice more than a few market tarot card readers saying the word bullish. What they mean by that is, we can look forward to is approximately a 17 month long up ward trend, and if you ask Larry Kudlow, it's because Obama's master plan to destroy the free market failed. Because the free market is just that bad ass. In other words the right only gives Obama credit when it makes him look bad.

This of course this is all bull shit.

The market did not go down because of Obama, it is not going up because of him either. The animated stock ticker is not a magic tell all of how well the economy is doing at that moment, or how good, or bad the president is doing at his job. It's just one of many complex indicators of how well the investors think the economy is going to preform, and with Christmas right around the corner it's kind of a no brainier. Money will be spent, retailers will post profits, and stock will go up. The market is going to take an up swing at least for a little while.Unless of course Rush Limbaugh cancels Christmas to help Obama fail, like he hopes for.

This is my real pet peeve however. Here we have a group of people who claim to be expert market professionals, whose main duty is to give good sound market advice, lying to our face about the market, to further their own political goals. If your an expert, and a professional, you should be expected to put your pettiness aside, and just give us the numbers. Failing that you should at least be able to defend your reasoning , and behavior to a comedian.

Jim Cramer Extended Interview Pt. 1

Daily Show Full Episodes Political Humor Joke of the Day

apparently not...

I almost feel bad for Jim Cramer in that interview. But then I remember that he was really asking for it in the days, and weeks leading up to that beautiful jewish bitch slap that Jon Stewart delivers, and like a kid who throws a rock at a wasp nest, I can't help but laugh when he gets stung in his dumb ass. The more serious question here is why is it up to Jon Stewart, a comedian, to call this foul bull shit. Economics is a science, you can earn a PhD in the field, and if CCP can hire one to help them with their pretend economy, to help their player base with their pretend money, I demand the same from MSNBC, FOX, CNN, and CBS when it comes to the real economy, and real money. Is a clinical level of professionalism really so much to ask?
