    Presidency’s a lost cause without Warren primarying Barack Osama Lama 24th century Obama. I’m certainly not voting for Obama or the rep, but ideally I can find a couple non corporate dems locally.

    Young people likely won’t vote, after being ripped off by the jackoff golf asshole in the WH.

    Yes, hilarity and torture don’t really look right together, luck of the draw I guess. Looked at this guys story. No wonder the guy’s nuts, the people who tortured him look nuts too.

    “1115: Detainee taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes. Offered water – refused. Interrogators began telling detainee how ungrateful and grumpy he was. In order to escalate the detainee’s emotions, a mask was made from an MRE box with a smiley face on it and placed on the detainee’s head for a few moments. A latex glove was inflated and labeled the “sissy slap” glove. This glove was touched to the detainee’s face periodically after explaining the terminology to him. The mask was placed back on the detainee’s head. While wearing the mask, the team began dance instruction with the detainee. The detainee became agitated and began shouting. The mask was removed and detainee was allowed to sit. Detainee shouted and addressed lead as “the oldest Christian here” and wanted to know why lead allowed the detainee to be treated this way.

    1300: Detainee taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes.

    1320: Detainee offered food and water – refused. Detainee was unresponsive for remainder of session. Afghanistan / Taliban themes run for remainder of session.

    1430: Detainee taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes.

    1500: Detainee offered water – refused.

    1510: Corpsman changed bandages on ankles, checked vitals – O.K.

    1530: Detainee taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes.

    1600: Corpsman checks vitals and starts IV. Detainee given three bags of IV.

    1745: Detainee taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes.

    1800: Detainee was unresponsive.

    1833: Detainee was allowed to sleep.

    1925: The detainee was awakened by interrogation team. He was offered food and water but he refused.

    1945: The interrogation team and detainee watched the video “Operation Enduring Freedom”.

    2120: Detainee was sent to the latrine. Offered water but he refused.

    2200: Detainee exercised for good health and circulation. Medical representative took detainee’s vital signs and removed the IV housing unit from the detainee’s arm. The detainee’s pulse rate was low (38) and his blood pressure was high (144/90). Detainee complained of having a boil on his left leg, just below his knee. The medical representative looked at the his leg and phoned the doctor. The doctor instructed the corpsman to recheck the detainee’s vitals in one hour.

    2300: Detainee refused water and food. He was taken to the latrine and exercised in order to assist in improving the detainee’s vital signs.

    2345: The medical representative rechecked the detainee’s vital signs. The detainee’s blood pressure had improved but it was still high (138/80) and his pulse rate had improved but it remained low (42). The corpsman called the doctor to provide an update and the doctor said operations could continue since there had been no significant change. It was noted that historically the detainee’s pulse sometimes drops into the 40’s in the evenings.”

    transparait commented on the blog post How Allowing Money Laundering Keeps Our Bubblicious Finance Afloat

    2011-04-03 11:58:16View | Delete

    “Last summer, I made a presentation called “How the Money Works on Organized Crime” to a wonderful group of about 100 people at an annual conference for a spiritually focused foundation in Philadelphia. This is a group of people who are committed to contributing to the spiritual evolution of our culture.

    After walking through the various Sam and Dave dilemmas with Sam’s SLIM PERCENTAGE profits sugar business and Dave’s BIG PERCENTAGE profits drug business, as well as the intersection between the stock market and campaign fundraising and narco dollars for about an hour, I asked the group what would happen to the stock market if we decriminalized or legalized drugs?

    The stock market would crash, they said.

    What would happen to financing the government deficit if we enforced all money-laundering laws? Since most of the bank wire transfers are batched and run through the New York Federal Reserve Bank, this should not really be that hard, right?

    Their taxes might go up. Worse, yet, their government checks might stop, they said.

    I then asked them to imagine a big red button at the front of the lectern. By the power of our imaginations, if they pushed that button they could decriminalize narcotics trafficking and stop all money laundering in the United States.

    Who would push the button?

    It turns out that in an audience of approximately 100 people committed to spiritually evolve our society that only one person would push the button. Upon reflection, 99 would not. I asked why.

    They said that if they pushed the button, their mutual funds would go down and their government checks might stop.

    I commented that what they were proposing is that an entire infrastructure of people continue to market narcotics to their children and grandchildren to ensure that their mutual and pension funds stay high in value.

    They said, yes, that’s right.

    Which is why I say that America is not addicted to narcotics as much as it is addicted to narco dollars.”

    She’s precisely right, and her messaging is faultless here. This is why she’s on the tv, I don’t think it’s a good idea to discount the skill she has with this. She’s an idiot, but she’s got game.
