I guess this summer's hot pick for a novel for your leisure reading is a thing called "Atlas Drugged" by Steven Goldstein. Apparently it's about a fictional situation we on the left are supposed to laugh at as a scenario which couldn't happen in a million years. But sometimes satire is eerily prophetic and very un-funny in its outcome. Apparently there is stuff in there about the Government putting 911 as a 900 phone prefix that you have to pay for the service of. There is still about certain bridges being made toll bridges in case of a Hurricane warning and the people need to flee quickly. And unlike Bush who was merely slow to respond after Hurricane Katrina, now the government will farm out emergency services like the distribution of clean water- - to private corporations, and you'll have to pay dearly for it, but you won't have any choice. And of course we already have the speeded up poultry inspection scenario like Lucy in the candy factory where now the meat goes by at several times the rate it used to, when diseases are on the rise. Of course the whole idea of "selling" an Atheist like Ayan Rand, whose hear in one of her leading novels - -is patterned after a psychopathic killer- - this takes some doing. Actually those Christians of Faith should be thanking liberals like Stephanie Miller for trying to separate out true Christianity from tea party dogma, but of course they won't. Of course all of tea party doctrine is based largely on pure fiction anyhow like the image of the Black "Welfare Queen" with her gold Caddilac we used to hear about endlessly in the 'eighties. Much of what passes for American History with them is so selective and distorted it's nearly useless. They appeal to an America that never was.
We all know that if things don't break the President's way in the Wisconsin recall on June 5th that President Obama's reelection campaign is toast. But the big gambling money is already betting heavily on Scott Walter's staying in power and the recall failing. The percentages break down to 70% for saying in power and 30% for the recall not succeeding. I don't like those odds. And neither does the Democrat National Committee. Many people say they won't give another dollar to the DNC till they rethink their stance on not helping the recall movement in Wisconsin. Obviously they don't want to get their hands dirty in case the recall should fail. Of course now there is a video apparently tape made of Governor Walker after he first got into office. On this tape he said that he would "work on dismanteling the labor unions and collective bargaining" and that his approach would be to "divide and conquer". Of course one nice thing about being a registered Republican like I have been these past ten years is that they never call you for a monetery donation, and I often donated to them, even if it was a small ammount. I can't afford it now anyhow. That was when Bill Press was heading the California Democratic Party.
Many don't like bringing up someone's high school years. The problem isn't with Mitt Romney back then but the way he is reacting now. That makes it a current problem. I might get defensive or even argumentative if someone fingered me for some misguided act I comitted in High School. But I would not laugh about it. Mitt Romney keeps saying "I don't remember back then". And yet it was pointed out that every time the incident comes up in a conversation Mitt Romney laughs - - or tries to Laugh. It's kind of one of those fiendish laughs like President Bush used to do when things were brought up like the imposition of the death penalty of Carla Fe Tucker back in Texas. It makes absolutely no sense for one to say "I don't remember' and in the next breath to then say "But I know the kid wasn't a homosexual", and by the way "I'm going to get people to testify supporting my view of the event", of something he has no memory of. In terms of Bane Capital Romney's memory is lacking there too. Now the campaign has pulled those adds where Romney claims to have created a hundred thousand jobs at Bane Capital. Now they have downgraded the theory to "Thousands of jobs". One apologist for Romney said that "It's an unfair question to even pose because Bane Capital was NOT in the business of creating jobs, so don't fault them if they didn't". That's an out! Of course we know in the case of Staples a lot of jobs were exported to China. And a lot of even those jobs were created after Staples had ended all contact with Bane Capital. But if you are going to talk about "Thousands of jobs", well President Obama DID create in excess of a hundred thousand jobs- - just last month - in those Unemployment figures the Romney campaign calls a "disaster". But if it's really true that "Bane Capital was never about jobs but in making money for their stock holders" then this is the thing they should put in their campaign adds - - - If it is a record they want to run on.
In terms of the soap opera now Elvis knows about his father's treachery during the recent Mayoral campaign where Stephano under-mined Elvis' efforts to smear sworn Di Mira family nemisis, John Black. It would seem now that Stephano hates his son Elvis even more than he relishes the goal of destroying sworn enemy John Black. He says he did it as a thing of "Italian honor" because he was keeping a vow to a dead person. I don't want people to compromise their principles. But couldn't Stephano have told Hope and Bo and Marlena (all of whom he believes to be Dead right now) that 'I did not conspire against John Black. If you believe that my son did, then go talk to him". But when you stealthfully sabotage a loved one and then lie about it and say you're still friends and you hope and pray for your friend's success" - - then you can't be called anything but a Benedict Arnold, which last time I checked was not something Honorable. As to Lexi's impending death from rapidly advancing inopperable brain cancer let's do a reality check. She was told "It will be a matter of weeks". Today is May 14th and this is what I wrote in Word on April 24th last month. "Today’s was a rather depressing episode in soap land. Now Stephano and Elvis know about Lexi and her incurable condition." So the event was "old news" even on April 24th. Lexi now continues in the prime of health and there is no sign at all of any symptums at all. All we had was a little dizzyness a while back with no recurrance of symptums. It's just another way in which the whole show is bogus.
Just today I learned that I was being undermined by an - - Entity - - we'll leave it that impersonal - - that by all logic should be routing for my success. But they are working against me. A lot of my bad relation with Calvary of Anaheim is because of their policy of straight arming me- - and not allowing me to get close. God Himself seems to regard me as some alien creation or at best some "Horrible Mistake that never should have Happened". I think the American People are talked into believing that President Obama's election was some 'Horrible mistake" they made in voting for him in 2008 and that it's an action they'd like to have back. They were "Deceived' and all. President Obama's poll numbers have not budged in excess of six months one way or the other but he remains in a statistical dead heat with Mitt Romney. You know six months is an Eternity in politics. Six months ago the big issue was the Occupy Wall Street movement. Also to build or not to build an electrified barbed wire fence at the Mexican border and Cain's "Nine - Nine - Nine" policy were hot items of discussion. The issues of today were not even imagined six months ago. And so it's by no far a reach to believe that the issues on Election Day will be things that have not even Happened yet and that nobody could predict.
