The other side will accuse you of "Being Subjective" even when they know damn well you are one hundred percent correct. In the psychic realm of Real Images, they don't have this problem.
I got up at five thirty this morning and had Bill Press on a while. They happened to mention that Congress had not been in session all week. I figured “Well that figures. They never do any work”. Perhaps in June some long awaited things will finally happen. We’ll get the supreme court ruling on gay marriages in California. And they will also rule on the Defense of Marriage act. The latter is a Law that has always been unconstitutional, but of course that hasn’t stopped people from embracing it for seventeen years. Later on I had Ed Schultz on that Monterey station. People are still roomanating about Michelle Bachman’s “resignation”. Actually she’s far from a “lame duck” (that term is highly overused) Because she’s still in a position to do an awful log of damage before she departs a year and a half from now. But Ed Schultz says that “Congress is like a glorified Union. But this one is a lot more powerful and binding than most”. That’s because there are few Union jobs where you could work eight years and accomplish nothing. Her name isn’t on any bills that ever passed. And apparently you get a life long pension. You ask why these people who hate government even run for Congress to begin with. Here’s a good reason why. Another is to MEET the lobbyists and such that will be hiring them once they have chewed up the government and spit it out. Perhaps she will run for the US Senate from another State, like Hilary Clinton did. We don’t know. Maybe she’s fanaticizing about running for President again. One thing we don’t know is WHAT the real reason for her resignation is. There are a lot of logical suppositions why. But she never told us the reason why she DID resign- - - only reasons she DIDN’T have for resigning. I had Ed Schultz on for close to two hours from nine o clock to eleven. After this Janet saw me trying to borrow a cigarette and again volunteered to give me money for another pack - - and I went to her room and got the money - - and then went out to the liquor store for a pack of John Blacks. And after lunch Randi Rhodes played Bill O Riley clips where he threw a tantrum about “Hate speech” and in a prime example of the pot calling the kettle black, accused Randi Rhodes of “hate speech” merely because she agreed with Bobby Gendel that “The Republicans were the party of Stupid”. One can’t help but wonder whether people will realize how nonsensical the right wing extreme has become. This morning I was reading about the September 23rd 2012 gathering at Mom’s, where political rhetoric was so thick, not to mention oppressive, that you could cut it with a knife. Rush Limbaugh has lost a lot of viewers and sponsors since the President was reelected- - and Judy has for the most part decided to “keep a lid on it”.

It
seems the author of these Riesen laced letters to the President and most
recently to major Bloomberg of New York - - is from Baton Rouge or
something. And the topic of the letters
is about guns and legislation to regulate them.
“If you think this letter is bad, it’s going to be as nothing when you
see what other horrors I am prepared to unleash”. There is no shortage of not only hate “speech”
but also hate Actions- - and overt and dangerous threat, which cannot be
prudently ignored. I thought about it going down for
medication. (By the way I got two
bananas and there was no line) I’ve come
to the conclusion that the reason why there are more overtly violent and
threatening letters and other actions now is that even the Tea Party knows that
money cannot buy everything- - just as money was useless in the major
California elections and we here in California have largely been immune to the
wave of tea party madness that has swept America’s Heartland. I’ve said all along that “As this economy
improves slowly but steadily and inexorably- - the power and sway of the Tea
Party over America- - will diminish.
Back in September of 2012 I’ll admit my hope for any future of
liberalism was at its low ebb about that point.
I thought it was an open question whether or not Romney would be elected
president. I felt there was a very real possibility
that he would be. A lot of America’s
future rides on whether it will be a liberal or a conservative Justice who is
the first to die- - and have President Obama replace him. The Republicans in the Senate would not date
to filibuster that.
If
what you have to impart is a Truth of great Magnitude- - - and if you are
careful how you phrase things so as not to make a misstep- - then your truth
will ‘Land” where it is supposed to land or at least be “captured” by the
hearer. But if your truth is or little
importance or magnitude- - - AND -
- if you say your Truth with great force
and ardency pounding the table and shaking your fist or- - perhaps waving your
Bible about - - and looking upward as if to invoke God - - then the “circle of
error” for your truth shrinks, and it’s incumbent on you to be MORE and not
LESS accurate than a truth of Great Magnitude.
(Selah) A Real Image is one that
Everybody Sees. An Apparent Image is one
only You see. In the other world - - I
believe that psychic communication is Immediate. Down here it’s relatively easy to engage in a
life of stealth and treachery all your days.
Your enemies wait longingly for the day when you’re found out. But not over there. There is no “waiting around” for
anything. There ARE no secrets. Some people might pay most any price not to
have their own inner intentions revealed.
One Mormon teacher around here once said “Life down here is an opportunity
to learn lessons you’ll need to know when you get to Heaven”. In fact Mormons see life down here as an
interlude or interruption of your Heavenly existence, expressly FOR that
purpose- - - of learning; gaining knowledge.
But when you pull the plug on a computer- - the information in RAM is
lost. So what the human soul wants to
know is, “Is there some way of storing the knowledge I have acquired that isn’t
contingent on pulling the plug on my brain cells?” I must say that today’s kids appear to be
getting Smarter much more quickly than we did.
Hummm.
Now
they have passed a couple of problematic laws in California. It’s just a by-product of having a veto proof
legislature. The minimum wage will be
raised to $9.25 in three years. It’s a
known fact that every time the minimum wage is hiked, the unemployment rate
rises. It happened around 1980 for sure,
and it happened again in 2007. There
was a massive hike in the minimum wage in 1968 and unemployment rates were
never to fall that low again. Our
economy doesn’t need the added drag, and businesses don’t like it. The other law is the one that says that
twelve year olds are “emancipated” as far as having any medical procedure done
from STD testing to the morning after pill to abortions, without their parents knowledge
or consent. David Cruise believes this
is a little much. However David Cruise
may be on the protective side by his remark about “these kids don’t know what
their genitals are even for”. Surely he’s
not saying that sex is only for procreation.
Perhaps he’s alluding to the fact that he’s against sex outside of
marriage. The trouble with this is
people like Emily said she didn’t want her kids even thinking about marriage
till they were 25. That means for a
male- - he spends, let’s say the period from age 15 to 25 as a virgin. That’s ten years of his sexual virility down
the drain. You’re asking a lot of a
young man. The Geritol commercials
inform us that “When a man gets beyond the age of 35 his body begins to slow down”. So in essence a man is being asked to
sacrifice half his peak virility- - all for a marriage that might not last five
years. Marriages are a farse now
anyhow. It will soon be more the domain
of gay people than heterosexuals. I mean
for them being into wedding gowns and flower arrangement and wedding cake
design - - they are in seventh heaven!
I would have no problem with hiring a gay wedding planner. My problem would be with myself for even
thinking about getting married given the facts.
There are people who have “done everything right” and it wasn’t too long
at all before everybody realized their marriage was toast. I am not among that number. But I fully understand it.
Nick
Fallon has been on his “apology tour” just like conservatives accused President
Obama of doing in the Mideast a few years ago.
Here’s a word to the wise. “Coming
clean” is not all it’s cracked up to be.
Sometimes there are unintended consequences. As Bob Halderman wisely told John Dean in
April of 1973, “Once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it’s impossible to get
it back in”. Just because you CAN do
something doesn’t mean it’s the wise thing to do. Are the consequences something that you’ve
really “thought through”? Here’s another
word of wisdom from Collin Powell, “You break it; you own it”. I don’t think
those jerk-off writers of the Soap Opera even considered that. Question. What the hell is Gabriel going to do now? She has a newborn daughter that is by her own
wishes declared illegitimate. The
biological sperm donor - - can go off and marry his gay lover, Sonny, but where
the hell does that leave Gabriel? Of
course these days Nick Fallon has been digging his own grave- - and much of how
he feels right now is his own fault.
Just as it’s Brady’s own damn fault for how he’s feeling right now and
it’s difficult to feel sorry for Brady. A
therapist might say of Brady Black, “He almost deliberately set himself up for
this disaster”. But the thing is with
Nick- - as feverishly as he’s been working to dig himself into a deep pit - Sonny
and Samantha and Will are shoveling the dirt on top of him. This may be an inconvienient time to make
this remark, but has anybody for a split second considered how Gabriel feels
right now? And I mean in part the things
Nick said to her, that were not only unnecessary but tactless. Samantha gave a curt “Thank you” to Nick for
allowing her to say that Arianna the newborn was now a bastard child and that
the hospital made a grievious mistake saying she was the legal offspring of a marriage. And then Samantha, Sonny, and Will make an expeditious
exit from the hospital room almost as if someone had sounded a fire alarm. It’s kind of like the Holy Spirit must feel
when an alcoholic fallen business executive comes to the altar to get
Saved. The Holy Spirit hi-fives Jesus
and goes “We did it! I knew we could
break him is we worked at it hard enough.
We’ve won. Here Jesus, let’s
toast the moment. Now let’s get the hell
out of here. I don’t want to hang around
a loser like that.”
And
now the saga of an innocent teenage belle named Wilimina who had the misfortune
to be seated alone on a flight next to a guy who was masturbating under a
blanket. But rather than alert anyone
about it, she just sat there and observed.
But the guy seemed to have trouble getting off and eventually put the
thing back in his pants in sheer frustration.
She then followed him from a distance when they landed and she followed
him into a restroom where she saw him moving his feet into the area of another
stall where another man was and made all of these tapping sounds to alert
him. But just then a Disneyland employee
drops off a container of dry ice in the sink and turns the water on. After a while the dry ice exploded and it made
such a loud, startling BANG - it threw
her off her feet and she slipped and fell into a pool of urine in this filthy restroom. Then she did the only logical thing s- - - he
sued the Airport and the City.
