The Putin Factor … bet yous thought this was about Donald
Trump, huh? Well, it may well be in the end, but it’s not for this post. This
is about how the corruption of Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and her rule of the
Democratic National Committee (hereinafter referred to as the “DNC”) have gone
the one extra inch it took to sway all those voters in Casa Stella to swing
from extreme left to whatever knucklehead the GOP manages to nominate. The DNC
can consider it a protest vote against their corrupt management of what is
supposed to be a democratic process. Bad enough that in 2015, when we’re
supposed to be the model for democracy around the world, we still have closed
primaries, effectively shutting out at least half the voting public, but now
that WE THE PEOPLE (Democrat and Republican alike) allow a former co-chair of
one candidate to rule the roost over the entire process, going so far as to
eliminate 19 debates (as compared to the last Democratic primary, when Obama
vs. Hillary saw 25 debates), cutting it down to just 6 (with 3 of the 6 being
held on Saturday nights during football/playoff season) [with a threat to
eliminate candidates from the DNC debates should they decide to debate on their
own], now the DNC Head Gestapo in charge of blatant corruption is threatening
to bounce Bernie’s campaign from access to … well, here’s how one online news
source (usuncut.com) that isn’t tied directly to the DNC put it: “The
DNC hires a group to manage their database and firewall between the campaigns.
They screw up and some low level Sanders staffer sees and reports it. Nothing
is saved or printed out and now the DNC is withholding crucial access to voter
data until the Sanders campaign can prove it doesn’t have the data from the
Clinton campaign and won’t release access to voter data unless somehow the
Sanders campaign can prove a negative – that they have destroyed data they don’t
have. Which is impossible.”
So, for those democrats still shitting their pants over the
possibility of a Republican winning the Presidency, here’s what’s going to
happen at Casa Stella (plus some other family members). I was going to vote for
Jill Stein when the DNC finished sabotaging Bernie’s campaign, but now that
they’ve clearly showed themselves for the corrupt pool of political skanks they
are, the DNC can count on at least 4 votes going directly against the DNC
coronation queen over to the GOP candidate (no matter which lunatic they
nominate).
So, for the loyal democrats who thought they were being so
clever by asking me if I could live with a President Trump, Cruz, Fiorina, et
al … here’s your answer: GO GOP, GO!
The left could’ve learned a valuable lesson from the tea
party by forming its own coalition (no matter how much scared shitless Bill
Maher advised against it). Look at how further to the right the GOP has been
moved by the teabaggers (and thus dragged the Democrats along with them).
Hillary is a progressive and I’m a skinny motherfucker.
But loyal Democrats tend to shit their pantaloons when it
comes to their never-ending whining about “the lesser of two evils” … they
accept the disgrace Hillary Clinton has been her entire political career. No
matter she’s a hawk. No matter she’s a corporate sellout. No matter she’s been
involved in one scandal after another. She’s the lesser of two evils.
Here’s my advice to loyal Dems. Grow a fucking pair already.
You’re not being afraid of ISIS is a good thing, but then you ruin it by being
afraid of a potential GOP president and therefore won’t send a collective
message to the DNC that would alert them to the fact that they don’t get to
ignore you anymore. Now they’ve gone one further. At the first “hint” of a
possible political revolution within their loyal ranks (Bernie Sanders), they
turn into a politburo.
Fine, as soon as Hillary secures her corrupt crown, I’ll be
doing my best to register as many independents as I can and/or sway as many
liberals as I can to protest what Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and the DNC have
done to democracy. I’ll do my best to get them to vote for whichever lunatic is
running against the DNC’s Queen of corruption.
Now, hopefully the backlash from this absolutely disgraceful
DNC maneuver will be so strong, more Democrats will protest come the primaries
and vote for Bernie Sanders instead of the corporate shill/war hawk (and mother
of all no-shamers), Hillary Clinton.
Although this novel takes place during the 1950’s on the
island of Jamaica, it seems more fitting today than may be comfortable. It’s a
good vs. evil tale of two preachers, but even the good one has issues (he’s a
drunk). Hector Bligh is the Rum Preacher who was kind of put into his position
in a plantation environment’s by the plantation owner. When a fire and
brimstone preacher, Apostle York, arrives in town one day, everything changes.
The fire and brimstone version of a preacher has more severe issues than Bligh,
although they’re revealed over time.
After York beats Bligh to a pulp and sends him on his way,
the Apostle wants to know “Who’s ready to be violent for the Lord?”
While Bligh soaks his head and heals his wounds in the home
(and later arms) of a widow, York takes control of the town’s parishioners. A
gang of five becomes York’s muscle. One of the five becomes something else for
York. The common thread between both preachers seems to be guilt over sexual inclinations,
a fitting touch considering men of the cloth are supposed to be above the
common fray. There’s always a form of witchcraft (or maybe it is witchcraft
and/or delusion) alongside the appearance of birds, but ultimately it is an adherence
to religious beliefs and the manipulation of those beliefs which relate to the
insanity of today’s world; the self-righteous manipulation of people to stand
on one side or the other.
Stamkos to Toronto? …
He’s an NHL superstar who most often plays 110 MPH, but is known (at least to
my eyes) to do some pretty stupid shit at times (i.e., trying to split
defenders, sometimes as many as three, while on a rush), toss a puck out in front
of the net while in the defensive zone … hog pucks for shots when there are
better options.
Look, there’s no denying his speed and aggressiveness. I
stipulate he’s world class, and his slap shot is as good as any in the game,
including Ovechkin’s. The problem with Steven Stamkos, as I’m seeing it, is not
that he wants more money. Hell, the owners aren’t putting their health at risk.
In most cases, an NHL player’s shelf life is very short, and even for those who
go on to have longer careers, they’ll be fortunate to walk without limps (never
mind talk with their original teeth). The bottom line is that all the hype and
praise thrown Stamkos’ way seems to have affected his attitude within the
organization. I don’t blame the man if he has a problem with the front office
and/or the coach, so if he wants out, good luck to him. The recent tweets and
all the other negotiating gamesmanship, whether his agent suggested it or not, none
of it helps the team. I’d like to believe Stamkos is still a team player.
But what if he leaves? I think Kucherov will fill his shoes
just fine, and we can always use another solid defenseman (should we manage a
deal). We’re still young and talented enough to be a force in the league, maybe
enough to catch a break and find our way back to the tournament … and if not
this season, then the next for sure. I’ll take a topline defenseman and a first
round draft pick and thank Mr. Stamkos for all his efforts thus far. I’ll even
wish him luck, but if he’s going to play tweeter-war with the front office, I’d
rather he just upped and left, but not for the front office’s sake (I’ll RARELY
take their side) … it’s all about your teammates, Steven. Always.
Bernie or Bust! … Amici: I’m starting a new political movement: F
the DNC!
Please feel free to join the party. Simply put, this is our
mantra: Bernie or Bust!
Bernie supporters have had to put up with nothing but
corruption from the DNC. The time has come to push back and PUSH BACK HARD.
We all know who the co-chair for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s
run against Barack Obama was in 2008 – Debbie Wasserman-Schultz. So how fair
can it be that Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is now running the DNC? Does anyone not
see the obvious conflict of interest?
Well, it’s too late to do anything about Schultz now, but
let’s take a look-see back to 2008, when there were 25 debates amongst the
Democratic candidates. That was a good thing, a very good thing. Voters had the
chance to see and hear their candidates 25 times. But now that Debbie
Wasserman-Schultz is running interference for her BFF, there are only 6
debates, 3 of which were scheduled for Saturday nights during college and
professional football seasons (the last of those 3 during the NFL playoffs).
And this week’s debate occurs on the same opening weekend as Star Wars.
Coincidence or a kick in Bernie’s ass?
Everyone knows how the corporate controlled media has
completely ignored Bernie’s campaign regarding coverage, right? And isn’t it
curious (at least) how Bernie refuses corporate coin and Hillary can’t live
without it? Maybe there’s another conflict of interest? Just maybe?
So here’s the deal. We’re sending a message to the DNC: It’s BERNIE OR BUST!
Once again, simply put, if the DNC doesn’t take back this
absurd suspension of Bernie’s right to Democratic voter id’s (something the
DNC’s own vendor is responsible for), if the DNC gets their wish and THEIR
nominee wins the primary and is the Democrat nominee for President, Bernie
supporters will do one of the following come election night 2016:
1) Write-in Bernie’s name with their vote.
2) Go see a Star Wars movie
3) Watch a replay of the playoff games scheduled for the 5th
debate.
4) Vote for Jill Stein
5) Vote for whichever lunatic the GOP nominates
The thing not to do is fall in line with gutless Democratic
voters to reward the DNC’s corruption. Hillary Clinton is not worthy of voters
selling out for the lesser of two evils. She is and always has been a corporate
shill, a liar, and a hawk. Bernie Sanders is the ONLY full-out honest candidate
in MY lifetime. He’s also the ONLY candidate to ever represent the poor and
middle classes with total and absolute integrity.
Amici: Join the movement. BERNIE OR BUST! And F the DNC!
