The Left Coaster: Comment on Open Thread

Comments: Open Thread

An excellent work and thanks to Mary for showcasing it. Not surprised it's on Marcy's site.

Now how long will it take for the crack-pot TLC troll patrol to assure us it's nonsense and Padilla has no case because idiots like j goldberg, coultergeist, RNC head lush rimbaugh, and billo, says so?

On to real news, a CNN Iran producer says students there are doomed if our president accepts their election results. Does business with the sport coat.

Then from WGN-Chicago: "The cloudy, chilly and rainy open to June here has been the talk of the town. So far this June is running more than 12 degrees cooler than last year, and the clouds, rain and chilly lake winds have been persistent. The average temperature at O'Hare International Airport through Friday has been only 59.5 degrees: nearly 7 degrees below normal and the coldest since records there began 50 years ago."

And then from our friends overseas: Our politicians haven't noticed that the problem may be that the world is not warming but cooling, observes Christopher Booker.

Food stocks are looking to be a lot lower, with prices higher for demand. With all the CO2 in the air one wonders where the warming is? What was that measurement? .385 ppb or did I get the decimal wrong? "It is appropriate that another contributory factor to the world's food shortage should be the millions of acres of farmland now being switched from food crops to biofuels, to stop the world warming. Last year even the experts of the European Commission admitted that, to meet the EU's biofuel targets, we will eventually need almost all the food-growing land in Europe."

So there's no room for food from Europe. Shame, their food was so delicious. So good for the people.

He can't, so he changes the subject.

What's interesting is that Petey has been doing the same shitck for well over a year now - changing the subject and posting his own little blog within the TLC comments. Why is that? Other than the rush of pleasure from the derailments and abuse, I think it's because it's the only way he'd get more than 10 eyeballs reading his work. He doesn't have the gonads to have his own blog or website, and he has dreams of relavance in what he does to boot.

That he sucks as a writer is inconsequential. 9/10s of the bloggers sucks, myself included.

The cure is to just scroll past those posts, as soon as you see the name. You know there's nothing but garbage there, since he doesn't believe in anything but getting his jollies being laughed at. Why waste the effort unless you're looking for a laugh? The wingnuts are so out of the mainstream at this point, most of their whining is in wingnut code anyhow, and no one but the 20%ers know what they're even talking about. Sometimes it's fun to watch 'em flail about, stomping their tiny feet, throwing silly tantrums over imagined slights (just like the pumas!), but mostly they're dead weight with no redeeming value (just like pumas!).

Might as well delete the shit from "Sarah," who's no doubt the Doughy Pantload himself, still trying to plug that stupid book that was panned by even his own side, it was so poorly written and "researched." If a legacy wingnut can't get any respect from his fellow wingnuts, you know he's the bottom of the barrel.

Peter the Baboon can't distinguish weather from climate---too stupid. Language "skills" are atrocious. A dead loss, "conservatism" is the only place for him.

God, what is up with the Iranian "probe" into their fake election? Delay? Distraction? Defuse the situation?

I guess the Supreme Leader thinks that a super-duper "report" from his corrupt national election officials---saying, "OK, maybe not 62%, but most definitely over 51%"---will solve the fraud.

I had been a defender of the Iranian hybrid democracy system, but one can't continue that position in the face of Friday's Fraud. Iranians now can see that the people have no channel whatever to influence their national government and its policies. And it's hard to see how even the clerics think this strengthens their system of government.

This is the kind of shit thinking that comes from having your mind poisoned by conservative extremism, which is what the ruling clerics represent in Iran.

Peter pinhead and man-ape would be enthusiastically manning the truncheons on the Iranian gals today if they were in that conservative system, after first prostrating themselves on their filthy "prayer mat" for several hours. The "conservative" mind is the same the world over: hate-filled, ignorant, irrational and stupid.

Euzo,

God, what is up with the Iranian "probe" into their fake election? Delay? Distraction? Defuse the situation?

Yes.

This answer has been brought to you by the simple answers to simple questions division of the newly named (by Palinites) Government Motors Corporation.

Ok, I will elaborate. I believe is IS an attempt to defuse the situation by slow-walking the protest for a tenday while the aches, pains and serious injuries are keenly felt by the small d, democrats who have been courageous in their rage. A pause for reflection may well damp the fires. I have been impressed that "security forces" have been playing a more subtle game than I expected. Instead of overwhelming force, on the 20th anniversary of Tienanmen Square, they allowed demonstrators to vent a lot of steam, subject only to the tender mercies of their own, "blackshirt" brigades of club-wielding zealots and thugs.

I heard the youtube video of the eerie, compelling shouts from the rooftops in Tehran and, I believe, several other cities, of hundreds of thousands of people, figuratively opening their windows and shouting, "We're mad as HELL and we're not going take it anymore!" To hear that cry or outrage echoing across the city, all night and from out of their own history, I believe, has spooked some of the more cynical theocrats and thugs.

"Allahu Akbar" is what they themselves shouted back in 1979 as they drove the Shah from the country with his despicable tail between his hind legs. I personally believe that this was a call heard around the country and, while it may not lead to actual reversal of the elections, it shook the pillars of heaven just a bit.

It lookslike the "probe" is nothing more than addressing complaints about the election filed by Mousavi and another candidate. Such complaints are permitted under the election procedures. I believe every candidate but Ahmadinejad disputes the returns.

Khamanei has done nothing but say that the complaints should be examined. The internet is filled with claims that urban ballots are being burned by the interior ministry, so I don't think a "complaint" or even a recount will accomplish too much.

Hell of a thing to have fake elections. It's the real weak point of every "democracy"---just like FL 2000.

That neocon wingnuts are drunkenly celebrating this disaster for Iran shows what subhuman monsters they are---they openly prefer that Ahmadinejad retain power in a fake election than have a reformer win, because it weakens those western leaders favoring negotiation and aids Israel's bellicose nonsense. These people really are mentally ill.

About time to re-visit the idea of putting a posters name at the top rather than the bottom of their post. Would make it alot easier to skip the trolls.

Perhaps it might be meaningful to put down some of the goals that Hitler achieved:
1) Almost complete nationalization of business, with the government, controlling everything.
2) Had massive regulatory agencies policing every aspect of life.
3) Government was allowed to takeover any business in violation of rules and or for the good of the state.
4) Forced profit sharing with employees (set wages, maximum amount business owners or manager could make.
5) Outlawed all profits during wartime on war materials.
6) Abolished all income not earned directly from work. (99% capital gains tax, 90% inheritance tax)
7) Created a extremely progressive tax structure with 99% taxes for the rich.
8) Provided "livelihood for all citizens, this was encompassed by cruises and resorts that although not free were funded by the government and allowed the poor to have the same vacations as the rich.
9) Insurance funded by the government
10) Price Caps
11) Price Controls
12) Rent controls
13) Laws against speculation for profit.
14) Communal rent free living areas, free housing for the poor
15) Free higher education
16) Strict labor laws in favor of the workers
17) The manta chanted in school of "Common Good/Common interest" before individual interest. "SOCIAL JUSTICE TO THE POOR AND MIDDLE CLASS."

These are just a FEW of the items that the Nazi's accomplished; I tried to purposefully stay away from the ones that could be argued either way. For example control of the Media, has been done by both right and left wing regimes. However in most of these cases they are favorites of the left, the more instructive part is that if you gave this list to the average listener of Air America, they would more than likely agree wholeheartedly with most of these goals the Nazis accomplished.

From the comments at Liberal Fascism. Great points. I bet most of you support the same set of goals.

Hey Idio, since when does an open thread have a subject?

Posted by peter at June 15, 2009 08:43 PM

Apparently our admin has the same problem, you know, the one you voted for. You ought to read up on our "Action Plan for Ug99 Stem Rust". Big problem with overwintering and our food supply. Ask some of our NJ friends, the snow shovels and plows were out today What a stunner for the locals in Washington Township.
