So we hit the home stretch. Every media poll, 'sept Fox news, shows Obama sweeping this. But still all of us live in fear. Even as the world closes in on Bush's (& his allies) horrible crimes against humanity, we are in fear. With even proof that representatives of the republican party tried & succeeded in steeling the 2000 & 2004 election, we are in fear. We look to Ohio, Florida, and other (supposed) battle ground states as places that could destroy us all.
Words for Ohio: "if you screw this up like Florida did in 2000, your out. You & Florida can have your own country and call it whatever, Flohio, or just CRAP."
So what do we do if Jorah McPalin wins? Well I imagine our apathy will final end & we will commence the revolution, right? Right!? One would think that the idea 4-8 more years of: the rich not being taxed, corporate conglomerates, Insurances agencies, children being clearly left behind, a never ending war, steeling of elections, social injustice, crimes against nature, crimes against humankind, and just pure evil, would ensure the emotional fuel needed.
Would (will) we rise up? Take the steps to fight? Would we stand up against the republican controlled army? Stop this SS from feeding us poison from the foods & from Fox news. Does it all have to burn so we can start a new? Am I breaking the (soon to be) laws by saying this? Why must we live in fear? This is your country! it is your responsibility to make it better for your family, your friends, your neighbors, and every person on the planet. People are looking to "you" to make the difference. So make the differences. Decide! If Obama doesn't win what will you do?
This is my response:
Marching Song
This is not a protest song
This is to right what has become wrong
This is our war
See the bombs bursting in the air
Above our fare cities, but no one cares
Won't you join me and we'll go marching!
I raise my sign and out their names
Of the executives and politicians
Who bring the world such shame
Won't you join me and we'll go marching!
So we can bring them down
Our soldier are alone
Let them know there's a war at home
Out from the Television, Off the page
We'll save them all from an early grave
We haven't forgotten about the tea
We still know ho to brew some hot liberty
Won't you join me and we'll go marching
We'll go marching two by two, Horrah!, Horrah!
Not for fame or fortune, but because we care
Won't you join me and we'll go marching!
So we can bring them down
I march to the beat of a different drum
We will not turn, we will not run
They may turn on the hoses and send in the dog
But this is a problem we can surely solve
See the bombs busting in the air
Above our fare cities and we should all care
Oh, won't you join me and we'll go marching!
So we can bring them...down
More songs for the revolution (other suggestions welcome):
Let them eat war-Bad Religion (or anything off the rock against bush albums)
Know Your Enemy-Rage against the machine
Greenday's American Idiot Album
Paint it black-Rolling stones
Broken Record-Ben's Chronicle (self promotion never hurt anyone)
Rape me -nirvana
Plug in baby-muse
Firestarter- prodigy
Final Thoughts
"They've got their weapons right here, right here, it's clear
They've got their sites set on you, what do you do? do you do?
If you don't want to live in fear, in fear, this is fear.
We've got to mobilize ourselves, in this hell, this is hell"

Volume VVV: Transmission November 26th 2009.
In early November 2008 another large global sell out all but destroyed the United States economy. The markets were frozen and economists began to look for someone to blame. GOP immediately pointed out that Obama's win didn't help and that it may have caused this particular collapse. The previously turbulent few months that left great American companies devastated causes the nation to begin selling out to foreign investors. By mid-December the overflow of foreign control left the 70% jobless weary of anyone of foreign ethnicity. Media, transportation, communications, and power began to slow as the cold December pulled on the remaining working class. A cold winter set in and parts of the northern midwest faced a massive snow storm that brought yet another crisis to American soil. The government failed to react due to the lack of funds, but produced images of soldiers helping a few icy residents. The media showed these images with different edits and gave the illusion of multiple rescues.
On December 21st the USS Mississippi sailed into the Gulf of Mexico and on December 22nd pulled into Galveston Harbor. The harbor was still heavily covered by National Guard and the army reserve from the hurricane early in the year. Soldiers on the docks were very tired from helping squelch an uprising from Galveston residents whose banks reposesed their homes earlier in the week. On the USS Mississippi a group of sailors began removing shoot 15's torpedo for scheduled maintenance when something went horribly wrong. The torpedo somehow went off sending flames through the lower part of the ship. The shrapnel from this explosion immediately hit an adjacent torpedo and caused it to go off. A massive explosion shoot out the side of the vessel. Pieces of metal flew miles away. Crewmen tried to contain fires that sprung up from the falling hot metal, but the fires quickly grew in size and started consuming the entire dock. The National Gaurd and Naval men scrambled to move artillery in cases sitting on the dock, but it was too late. The fires first reached bombs that were to be loaded onto the USS Mississippi. There was an explosion. A huge fireball was seen & felt by half of Houston. Mass confusion set in.
Initially the news had no idea what to report.
Mike Jenkins reporting for Local Fox News reported onsite: "it looks like we're being fired upon down here...those fire balls in the sky look like missiles". (Mike would later realize that it was pieces of metal from the dock explosion.) These few words spiraled into Fox & CNN reporting, "we have heard reports that's Galveston is under attack". Video images from local news channels showed the rain of fiery metal over & over again. public was confused as to whether it happened live or whether it was previously taped. Obama, McCain, and the President all heard these reports. The president feeling the loss for his party in the recent elections quickly took action. President Bush picked up the phone and called his friend in South Houston. His friend, an unnamed source, said they didn't know what was going on, but it seemed that things were still exploding. His friend said that he has heard reports that a ship was "firing from the Gulf of Mexico".
Bush didn't hesitate, he asked his advisors to place him on National Television immediately. Bush quickly spoke to Cheney & Rice and then went live.
Bush begins: "My fellow Americans something tragic and evil has happened in Galveston, Texas. Reports are...not clear at this time. (Bush takes a long pause). But what is clear is that an act of "Terror" has happened. I will work with the men and women of every part of our government to defend our great nation. We will hunt down the culprits and defend America against terrorist attack. For these reasons I declare Martial Law... This will be for a limited basis and normal government will be restored once we are safe again..."
All borders are closed and what was the United States of America changed forever.

Volume X: SNL Smells
Oh SNL how can you climb so high & shoot yourself in the foot. We all watched to see Ms. Tina do the funniest impression since the great Will Ferrel as Bush, Dana Carvey as Bush Senior & Perot, & of course Phil Hartman as Clinton. These were all great as Tina is, but you never used this past tallent to bow out. Pour Tina had to just simple leave the stage as she was told "she's here", (Tina)"the real one". What a stupid walk off! Not even Alec's rant telling Sarah off excaped the sell out. A brillant true telling monologue from Alec ruined by an ending with him reolising it wasn't Tina and saying "you're prettier in person".
I guess what was most disappointing is the fact that Tina plays Sarah so well. Her talent knocked SNL from the top. Marky Mark & Alec mystaking Sarah for Tina was all to real. Tina says completely crazy sounding things that unforunately are true. No script required. It's all to perfect. So the dumb parts of America actually thought Sarah was already on SNL when Tina first appeared. The republicans saw this errie problem & needed to deflate it.
"How do we deflate it" wondered the gop, "let's make SNL bow to us, like America has for 8 years". So Sarah gets to scare Alec to eat his words, Tina to just leave the stage, and Loren Michael gets to keep his show in the new Republican world. I wonder if Tina feels she can do the impersination anymore with such shame hanging over her. I would want to retired after being the funniest person to sell out ever.
As for Sarah's second spot on SNL; well the rap was funny but worthless for her involvement. I would have liked if the show hadn't began so pourly.
Oh SNL its back to not watching you again. I hope that one day you can stop sucking and regain the humor you so inspired.

Volume X: Thoughts on the last debate
So it's done. The voices have rang and each candidate got in their last face to face sound bite. Let's be honest this was the most entertaining debate outside of the VP fight. Barack looked like the president, mostly because he remained calm and ready for the obvious attacks from John. John looked intense like someone was taking the last cookie from the cookie jar. Rightly so he attacked Barak for that's all he has left.
This debate cleared up some questions for Republicans & undecides concerning Barack's ACORN relation. Barak set the record strait about his relationship with the weatherman and the acorn folks. But even after Barack explained the details, John would not accept them. Questions on Barack's relationship are not answerable by anyone because John & Republicans want only one answer: "my names Barack Obamo & because I am black I have a secret mission to enslave all u white people. I work with terrorist & other religions to achieve this objective". Well I got news for you GOP, Barack can't enslave you cause you're to old to work anyways. GOP why must you keep this sick side of humanity in your heart. Why can't you see Obama desires to really help this country? A desire that has driven many to register just as your hockey-mom has done.
One thing I can't figure out with the GOP is how much their message is hypocritical. John & his Republicans keep saying we "will not raise your taxes". But during the biggest financial crisis since the depression where will you get the money. Your proposals cost more so who will pay for it. You cannot reallocate because you have promise to not stop the wars. You can't simply cut basic functions such as: health education and transportation. So who will get a tax increase. Everyone! Even Baracks discussed plan is not truly possible for a 4y ear presidency. His not tax for under 250k just can't last. The work force knows how to work and our tax money has built this place so no one is except from this mess.
You know who has made out good during this financial crisis "joe six pack". Just a few weeks ago he was a deadbeat drunk and now he's a plumber who wants to buy his company. Both candidates should & could learn something from his entrepreneurialship. Joe six pack/joe-the-plumber was John's go to against Barack, but it didn't really work out so well. Barak said he would stick with his outlined plan so people like Joe could save for the level that Joe's achieved faster.
A message for Joe strait from the economist or people who think about money: now is a really bad time to do large risky business ventures. If u have the cash wait till the value goes down & buy low. But really save your money. If your right above 250k spending money is not the right thing you do. If you do due decide to take the business venture. See about salaries for yourself & an assistant. This would help lower your overall gain. Check about joe the plumber inc.
As for these two men that voiced sanity and madness there is but one choice. Barack may not be the liberal king we all want, (people like Nadar have to be the underdogs) but he will get us closer to the society we claim ourselves to be. This is suppose to be the home of the free & the brave; a place for the weak & tired to come. Barack can get the ball rolling. If we choose the old man all will age and nothing will ever change.
Vote True, Vote Right, Vote Barack on the Tues!

Volume X: Wish I missed "that one"
It took a little bit of time to find the right words to describe the debate. You see, I've (we've) been distracted by something more important than politics, a little thing called our livelihood. As those numbers dropped leading up to the debate (and now and still to come) the idea of both men in center ring changed. It was no longer an argument who was right or wrong, it's who can lead. I didn't expect John with his mumbling and wondering around to be that person. I can't see him facing real danger and having to strength for us to believe in. He simply is to old for the youth of America to follow. I wouldn't following my Grandfather anywhere cause we'd end up at lost in Shop Right. Barrak on the other hand has been chosen to lead, but, for him, the debate was all about clarifying and correcting someone made of quicksand. We don't have time for this. So Barrak even when you said your plan: the current package should not "give bonus to CEOs", give "tax cuts for the middle class", and start growing projects at state & local (build communities), it wasn't in the commanding voice that I needed. This is your time to rise and lead us. You can say anything you want at this point just tell us directly what to do. (but don't wink at us.)
As for you McCain your just nuts. Each plan he suggested for financial system you listed cost middle & lower income more money. Especially that damn health tax plan. Do you know how to do math? My personal medical bills have averaged $8,000 a year and you wanna give me only $5000. Do the math! I still need $3000; who am I going to get that from? To top it all off you attack Barrak because he wants to fine parents that don't provide their kids free health care. Sounds like motivation to me.
Barrak I was a little confused and worried when you brought up 911 for the "Sacrifice" question. Bringing up 911 is a republican thing. Don't do that again. I think I saw you catch yourself after you said it, but you had to go with it cause you mentioned it. McCain you thought that eliminating programs was the answer. Ok, fine, might I suggested your health tax plan. (Reasons listed above.)
McCain, when did Nuclear Power plants become green. Last time I checked the waste was the worst thing on the planet and still may ultimately destroy us. Stop telling people it's safe! Also, just to feed into your constant bringing up of terrorist, wouldn't it be bad to have more processed Uranium around.
Barrak go on with your wind powered self.
The rest of the debate between John and Barrak was pretty boring. I wish there was a better way to say it, but clearly the ADD nation can't focus outside of 10 minute intervals, or maybe just me.
I do have one thing that must be made clear. Both of these men need to start leading now. They need to stop fighting with each other: stop correcting, stop doing ads, stop the bull. They have to now face this great problem. Barrak this is for you to show your the right choice to anyone out there who is still hung up on race, Muslim, terrorist stuff. Focus in on delivering the speech and just ignore John.
John you need to allow the man who will lead the majority to do his job. At some point I thought you meant well, but that is no longer clear, so I must ask you to just step aside. And beside you mocked Barbara and that can never been forgiven!
next debate is 10/15. Time to make "change" and "lead"!

Those of you playing the Palin drinking game last night are most likely feeling worse than your first college party. Your still passed out on the coach and have yet to even called in sick to work. If she said "also" or "Maverick" one more time you might of had to have your stomach pumped...maybe you still do. Silly people, you knew it was going to be bad and yet drinking didn't make it good. We all know an hour in, the glass was to heavy and you had to pretend for the rest of the game.
Anyway Sarah began during the hand shake by asking Biden, "can I call you Joe." (He should have said "no".) Critics are already saying she put the folksy into the debate. Folksy is John Denver not "talk like an idiot". Sarah, if you dumb down your linguistics anymore we may have to create a new word "Palinbilly". And as the theme from Deliverance (Dueling Banjos) played Sarah laid it out for us.
Palin: I am freaking nuts.
Biden: I am old fart who actually voted for the people
Palin: I might be legally retarded
Biden: I actually know facts.
Palin: Obama voted for this bill and that's bad
Biden: McCain did also, dumbass!
Biden obviously won this debate. He pulled out the old "I actually know what I am talking about" trick. At one point I could see the vein just throbbing from his head as Sarah kept saying stupid shit and lieing on various subjects. I know we all wanted Biden to really lay into her, but he did a good job. He also (drink), wasn't that long winded as per usual. Sarah was not as funny as the Katie Couric interview. (which by the way does not make Katie Couric a good journalist. It's just happenstance that Katie got someone so amusing and that's why we keep watching it.)
Sarah flipped on so many questions. She almost hung herself with the lets "drill", drill, drill and save the environment. Yes, Sarah, tapping our oil reserve would bring jobs temporarily, but it also bring about the destruction of our planet. So it won't matter that Mommy and Daddy have jobs their children won't have a planet to grow up in.
I think Joe final got the huge edge when he got a little emotional about being a single parent. I totally felt his pain even though I have 0 kids. America has to know that he truly doesn't want single parents to struggle and will die trying to make things just a little better. Joe's stride at the end may have been a little to late with American's all having ADD. He needs to work on his sound bites. More "single parent" Joe, that will keep you on the defensive side even though I wish you had just kicked her ass!
As for you Sarah I am have only one piece of advise. Go look up the word Maverick and go use your bridge to nowhere!
Also(drink), big props to the Gwen Ifill for nailing the moderator position. She was an all star and should moderate the rest of the debates. Don't watch the other debates on CBS if I get another survivor ending right before the debate or crazy split screen flip I am going to go crazy.
