  • Occupy Alec Baldwin’s house

    You know, I haven’t seen the movie “The Hunt For Red October” yet because the thought of Alec Baldwin as Jack Ryan is just that offensive to me. Today, in the Huffington Post, Baldwin does his Bizarro Jack Ryan impression again and for some reason, all of our problems stem from the fact that we have no high-speed rail system;

    Another example is that we have no high speed rail in this country. Typically, you fly or you drive. So airlines are free to tack on fees to remain profitable the way that oil companies are free to manipulate oil production, and thus the price of gasoline. You bailed out the airlines every time you did not demand more effective, intermediate range travel, i.e. high speed rail. You bailed out the oil companies every time you watched (were you watching?) as American troops went to Iraq to fight a war for oil. You bail out American business, and help them maintain an often false veneer of profitability, every time you send nearly every member of the current Congress back to Washington. Maintaining US corporate profitability is the single goal of this Congress. Because that is what the corporations who own the Congress paid for when they bought the Congress.

    You stupid fuckers – if only you had exercised your choice to take the rail instead of choosing to zip around the country at a thousand miles an hour, we wouldn’t be in this mess and the hippies wouldn’t have to protest in your name. Can’t you see the obvious advantages of traveling in an 19th century conveyance over a 20th century one?

    If Alec-fucking-Balwin can see it, why can’t you?

    Everything I have put forth here, I have heard articulated from the Occupy Wall Street movement. Some of it was not news to me.

    Yeah, that’s who I peg my faith in…a bunch of filthy bums who are getting scabies and TB in the 21st century when dirt farmers in Africa somehow avoid those maladies. I’d trust them with my financial health, too.

    By the way, Alec Baldwin’s net worth, according to Celebrity Net Worth is $65 million today. He makes $300,000 smackers for an episode on whatever POS TV show hired his portly, untalented ass.

    But you should be taking the train.

    By the way, for someone who rails against airline travel like that, well, you wouldn’t expect to make ads like this would you?

  • Roosting chickens

    I know nothing about these people, believe it or not. The last time I watched MTV they were still playing music videos, but I could have told them that having babies in your teens is a bad idea and leads to bad stuff.

    Anyway, Just A Grunt sends the news that the stars of MTV’s “16 & Pregnant”, Airman Josh Rendon and his wife Ebony Jackson have been arrested in their on-base housing at Little Rock Air Force Base for endangering the welfare of a child and drug possession.

    If he gets kicked out of the military, Rendon and his wife, Ebony Jackson, will lose their home — because they live on the base.

    On Tuesday, police raided Rendon and Ebony’s pad, after someone complained about living conditions in the house. Police found the place covered in feces.

    Yeah, they will lose their home…that’s why most on-base residents don’t smear feces on their walls and bring drugs to their homes, so they can keep the home. Did they learn that shit on MTV? Who would have thought that TV idols would act so…well, un-ideally.

    Ironically, just ten months ago, Ebony told another vacuous publication interested in that type of bullshit that the reason she wasn’t invited to be on the 16 & Pregnant spin off “Teen Moms” was because she was so happy. Who wouldn’t be happy with shit smeared on the walls and some drugs on the coffee table.

    I wonder if MTV will tell it’s viewers about the teen mom who has lost custody of her child and is sitting in the local hoosegow wondering when her family will all be together again – or isn’t that glamorous enough for the MTV crowd?

    Update (Sporkmaster)

    I managed to find a interview with Ebony Jackson.

  • Fake video causes real murder.

    Everyone should know about the shooting of the two Air Force members in Germany that were going to Afghanistan. However a few days ago the shooter explained his motive.

    Uka blamed a video purporting to show American servicemen raping a young Muslim girl for prompting him to try and stop other US soldiers from getting to Afghanistan.

    Oh an to make interesting is who make the fake video.

    But the rape footage, billed as an authentic video entitled “what was done to our sisters,” turned out to be a fake using footage scene from the 2007 anti-Iraq war film “Redacted,” directed by Hollywood’s Brian de Palma.

    So here is a case where generic stereotypes if US troops has caused US service members to be seriously wounded and killed.

    The Murder says as much about the video.

    “I thought what I saw in that video, these people would do in Afghanistan,” he told the court.

    Does anything more need to be said about this?

  • That 2012 campaign movie

    Tman sends us a link to an article on Yahoo News in which the Obama Administration defends itself from the charge that it’s in cahoots with Hollywood to make a movie about the bin Laden raid that will be released in the weeks before next year’s presidential elections.

    Says Kathryn Bigelow, the director (also the director of that shitwad “The Hurt Locker”) says;

    “Our upcoming film project about the decade long pursuit of Bin Laden has been in the works for many years and integrates the collective efforts of three administrations, including those of Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama,” in addition to the Department of Defense and the CIA, they say. “This was an American triumph, both heroic and non-partisan,” they said of the mission, “and there is no basis to suggest that our film will represent this enormous victory otherwise.”

    Yeah, I’m sure. I think back to The Hurt Locker and I don’t see anything non-partisan coming out of this. Republican Congressman Peter King doesn’t think it’s funny that the White House is declassifying details of the operation to Hollywood before they’re telling us, the people who financed the mission. Says King in a letter to the DoD and CIA OIGs;

    …this alleged collaboration belies a desire of transparency in favor of a cinematographic view of history.

    The White House says it’s ridiculous.

    “We do not discuss classified information. And I would hope that as we face a continued threat from terrorism, the House Committee on Homeland Security would have more important topics to discuss than a movie,” [White House spokesdick, Jay] Carney added.

    The same White House spokesdick who defended the campaign photos taken at Dover AFB earlier this week despite the wishes of the bereaved families.

    COB6 and I had a commander in Desert Storm who made tons of big-ass mistakes during our portion of the war and afterwards, he assembled the whole company and dictated what he thought that we should remember about the war. Most of it was fractured history, in fact the whole history of the battalion in Desert Storm was pretty much manufactured from a Sergeant Major who took out an Iraqi tank with a 9mm pistol and a platoon sergeant who was struck in the eye by the fin of an RPG round which flew over his head. All of which eventually appeared in the Tom Clancy book.

    i recounted that to say this; the Obama Administration isn’t telling us about the mission, but they’re giving Hollywood unprecedented access because that’s what the White House wants us to remember about the mission – the Hollywood version – as we go to the polls.

    If you haven’t read the Mudville Gazette post on this yet, you really need to.
