The Fleabaggers are evidently turning on their Democrat masters according to the Washington Times;
“Because no party is representing the 99 percent. And because money should never equal speech, we are marching on a fundraiser for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. … The DCCC is a vehicle for the 1 percent’s influence in the Democratic Party and in America as a whole.”
Yeah, they’re getting it all out of the way now so they won’t have to during the election year. It’s just a brief interlude to quell the criticism that they’re biased in favor of Democrats. It’s strictly a fund-raising ploy…you won’t hear any talk like that next year like they various groups weren’t critical of the Democrats in 2008 and did very little protesting saving their energy for the Republican National Convention.
TT sends us a link from the New Haven Register about their local Fleabaggers and how they think they’re cute for hanging the American flag upside down in various spots around their shithole.
Yeah, they say it’s a signal for distress, signifying the country is in danger. But they’re not on a ship and there is no one in need of rescue services, so that’s just hippie bullshit. They’re beng intentionally disrespectful to the whole country…the country that allows them to spit on us like that.
Maybe they’d like to burn a flag and call it a distress smoke signal.
The Associated Press reports that 1400 cops moved into the Occupy encampment in LA early this morning and arrested 200 of the smelly creatures. Meanwhile in Philly, another 50 were herded into the hoosegow for refusing to abandon their social event;
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa raised public safety and health concerns in announcing plans for the eviction last week, while Philadelphia officials said protesters must clear their site to make room for a $50 million renovation project.
Defiant Los Angeles campers who were chanting slogans as the officers surrounded the park, booed when an unlawful assembly was declared, paving the way for officers to begin arresting those who didn’t leave.
Will the hippies learn their lessons and grow the hell up? Doubtful;
Opamago Cascini, 29, said the night had been a blast and he was willing to get arrested.
Maybe the cops should adopt the conditions of Egyptian police and make arrest a little less pleasurable and then maybe people will obey the law again.
ROS sends us a link to a video from the misnamed Democracy Now! in which UC Davis’ Elli Pearson, one of the pepper sprayed students in the famous event admits that they, the students, surrounded the police and refused to allow the police to LEAVE the campus provoking the pepper spray incident.
In short, they were begging for video footage they could use to appear like they were worthy of sympathy from everyone who didn’t see the entire incident unfold.
Pat sends us this screenshot of a former soldier, Kevin Baker, who decided to “Occupy” Sergeant Major of the Army Raymond Chandler’s Facebook page with some class warfare BS;
The existing officer corps should be dismantled and replaced by enlisted service members who are democratically elected by their units and who are subject to recall at anytime. Officers should no longer enjoy special privileges, including hand salutes. We also demand the right for lower enlisted ranks to unionize and form committees to address grievances with the chain of command, the unit and the
military.
If you’re going to elect the officer corps among the masses, why stop saluting them?
Now, if you look at Kevin Baker’s Facebook page, you’ll notice that he’s a student at Los Angeles City College…that’s probably the root of his problem. A half-assed education among the intelligentsia who couldn’t get a real teaching job. Baker forgot to mention that we be reimbursed our premiums for SGLI and demand a Cold War medal.
Actually, this Facebook rant is a monument as to why we don’t put privates in charge of having ideas.
Ok, for the past few years there have been people calling for President Bush to be tried for war crimes. I ignore most of these links because it is the same thing over and over again. But this one is different because there seems to be a court in Malaysia. I have never even heard of this group before.
A tribunal in Malaysia, spearheaded by that nation’s former Prime Minister, yesterday found George Bush and Tony Blair guilty of “crimes against peace” and other war crimes for their 2003 aggressive attack on Iraq, as well as fabricating pretexts used to justify the attack. The seven-member Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal — which featured an American law professor as one of its chief prosecutors — has no formal enforcement power, but was modeled after a 1967 tribunal in Sweden and Denmark that found the U.S. guilty of a war of aggression in Vietnam, and, even more so, after the U.S.-led Nuremberg Tribunal held after World War II. Just as the U.S. steadfastly ignored the 1967 tribunal on Vietnam, Bush and Blair both ignored the summons sent to them and thus were tried in absentee.
But it seems that this is going around the internet as if this were real news. The court is not legit and now power to do anything so what they say does not really mean anything. But despite that people seem to believe otherwise in the comments on youtube.
Oh and they are going to ask the International Criminal Court co-sign the verdict.
The tribunal ruled that Bush and Blair’s name should be entered in a register of war criminals, urged that they be recognized as such under the Rome Statute, and will also petition the International Criminal Court to proceed with binding charges. Such efforts are likely to be futile, but one Malaysian lawyer explained the motives of the tribunal to The Associated Press: “For these people who have been immune from prosecution, we want to put them on trial in this forum to prove that they committed war crimes.” In other words, because their own nations refuse to hold them accountable and can use their power to prevent international bodies from doing so, the tribunal wanted at least formal legal recognition of these war crimes to be recorded and the evidence of their guilt assembled. That’s the same reason a separate panel of this tribunal will hold hearings later this year on charges of torture against Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and others.
Your not a formal organization to begin with much less anything that you come up with. This is a joke and a bad one at that. But expect to see this on your Facebook feed soon if not already.
UPDATE: Seems that people are claiming that Former President Bush has canceled his trip to Switzerland because he is afraid that he will be arrested for war crimes. This bad joke is getting worse.
