Denmark has always had the guts of a burglar in broad daylight. Consider that after the Nazis took over their country and demanded Jews wear a yellow star of David, their King promptly marched through the streets wearing a Yellow Star of David.

Well, wish that were true but it isn't. However, the truth is even better
It's one of the great untold stories of World War II: In 1943, in German-occupied Denmark, the Danish people find out that all 7,500 Danish Jews are about to be rounded up and deported to German concentration camps. Danish citizens spontaneously make their own decision: it's not going to happen. And it didn't. Risking their own lives, the Danes quickly rallied round to save their fellow citizens, and almost all of the country's Jews were able to escape the clutches of the Nazis and find refuge in neutral Sweden.
So I'll join with (hopefully) millions of others and seek out Danish foods to buy. It takes balls for a little country to stand up to a billion nut cases. History News Channel has all the info plus a good story, HERE.

More Iran and the bomb: an emailer asks me about taking the 2% enriched uranium used in power plants and then enriching it further til it is 90% bomb quality stuff. Impossible: if you had a hundred pounds of 2% uranium you might be able to get a few ounces of 90% at best and you need a hundred pounds. If Russia does the enriching it will take the fear off the table, BUT nothing will stop Iran from enriching their own uranium and from all reports they have plenty to enrich.

Cindy Sheehan to challenge Dianne Feinstein in the Democratic Primary in CA. Before you roll on the floor laughing, you better consider how "out of the universe" the Left in the Bay Area has become. The much ridiculed Limousine Libs from Marin County and Nob Hill are not the majority of the Left there by a long long shot. You would actually have to walk the streets of Frisco to realize how depraved the place is, the stink of urine and feces hang in the air like an invisible fog bank, and every deviate you can imagine parades proudly in their "costumes." Cindy Sheehan will rout Feinstein in the Bay Area and will get huge votes as far south as Monterey. Stop laughing. Cindy Sheehan represents the Frisco Left exactly.

EyeRan: calm down everybody, they are years away from having a bomb. And enriched uranium? It took us six months sifting through hundreds of tons of raw uranium to achieve fissionable U235 and even then we only had enough for one single bomb. It's plutonium that Iran wants to make and plutonium is a result of so-called peaceful use of uranium. We take it for granted that they have either stolen or been given the complex plutonim "trigger." It's five years away. Uranium enriched to the commercial use grade of 5% is OK. Bombs require at least 20% ("dirty bomb") and almost all are 90% (Heroshima and up). For a peek at the complexity of enriching uranium GO HERE. If you get as far as "implosion device" you will see what Greenglass stole and gave to Rosenberg. (Th Rosenberg "case")


THE FIRST AND ONLY FEMME FATALE


Kim DuToit has chosen a woman almost none of you have heard of as his "Babe of the Week." Her name is Louise Brooks, arguably the woman who most perfectly embodies the 20s; gorgeous to a fault; smoldering eyes that insinuated a heat of sexuality and possible availability; a cinematic wet dream to anyone who ever saw her. She also had that fragility of talent like F.Scott Fitzgerald, so delicate that you felt she might shatter before your eyes and be gone forever; a crystal wine goblet so brittle it breaks if it is stored incorrectly. She is an actress from the silent era, THE femme fatale of movies both here and in Europe, a successful dancer, stage actress, and writer. I met her when I was doing a play in Hollywood about a famous silent era murder that took place in the 20s. I was 23 years old and one night this incredible looking woman came into the theater and sat in the audience with the director. She was at least 60 and none of us guys could take our eyes off of her. After talking with our director for ten minutes she got up and glided out the front door. After she left I asked the director, "Who in the fuck was that?"

"That my young friend, is the most beautiful woman ever put on this earth." After a long pause he added, "And also the most unhappy." Her bio by Barry Paris is one of the best reads there is. None of us can really appreciate her unless we get to see a silent movie called Pandora's Box, which was banned in all the right places; a story about the femme fatale named Lou Lou (played by Brooks) "who wreaks emotional and physical havoc on a repressed doctor, his naive son and a lesbian Countess before finding her destiny with Jack the Ripper!" (How's that for a fucking plot?). Directed by the famous German director, G.W. Pabst, it is shown uncut on TCM once in a while. There is a terrific layout of her over at the site of the world famous photographer, Eugene Richee, who actually became a genius only after shooting photos of Brooks. It is one of his photos that is at the top of this post and if you venture to any Brooks site you will note that she is always completely covered in every photograph known.

My take on Challenger memorials: had there not been a woman on board this would be a non memorial. Emailer W.S. lets me know that there were two women on board, Sharon McAuliffe and Judith Resnik; Resnik was a trained space person and McAuliffe was a teacher with no training, "one of us." I still say that had a man school teacher been killed and not a woman, this would be a non-memorial day.

My take on the latest hysteria from Iraq because a "journalist" got wasted by an IED: never a headline when a grunt gets wasted. Fuck those "journalists." Fuck them. At last the terrorists got a target worth getting.

Semi retraction---sort of... In my recent piece on the stock market I indicated that the yield curve was still inverted. It is not. I blame it on bad writing, a few emailers blamed it on my stupidity. Oh well. At any rate the flat curve, which lasted almost a month, had an effect on the psychology of the market for a while.


NOT EVERY BAD GUY IS A NAZI

Hamas and us: Pipes is one of the best observers of things middle eastern but his post of last week, one that draws a parallel between Hamas and Hitler, is way out of whack. Neither Hitler nor the Nazis ever achieved more than a third of the vote in four separate elections held 1932.

Hitler was NOT elected to anything, ever.

The Nazi party achieved a third of the vote in the first election of 1932, one which gave Hindenberg (the guy not the Zepplin) only 49.7 percent of the vote, thus under the constitution there was a runoff between Hindenberg, Hitler and some other guy named Thaelmann. In the run off Hindenberg was elected chancellor with fifty three percent of the vote (Hitler got around thirty seven percent and the other guy got the balance). Well, the Nazis being Nazis they didn't like the result so Hitler's SA took to the streets beating people up and causing anarchy. Hindenberg called another election. It was this third election in which Nazis got a plurality of the votes and became the largest party of the land (not the majority party), and it is this election to which a lot of people mistakenly refer as "electing" Hitler. This is false. While holding some power, the Nazi Party managed to paralyze parliament and government so Hindenberg called a FOURTH election, an election in which the Nazis LOST forty seats in the parliament. So far there is no similarity whatsoever between the election outright of Hamas and the thirty percent plus that the Nazis achieved one time. The most power the Nazis got in the 608-member body was two hundred thirty, the high water mark for both Hitler and the Nazi party using democracy. What German support for Hitler that existed was declining when he siezed power.
Italic
It was after the fourth election, the one in which the Nazis lost forty seats, that Hitler forced Hindenberg to appoint him Chancellor and then he seized power over the period of six or so months.

Where the similarity to Hamas can be seen escapes me. Hamas taking to the streets sure helped in this election but was only vaguely similar to the SA in Germany. It was the Hamas history of helping the poor coupled with their perceived integrity that got them elected. Let's face it, the PLO ruling party was arguably the most corrupt in the region. And sixty percent of the vote is twice what Hitler ever got.

I don't think a parallel with Hitler is accurate. We do ourselves a disservice by brushing this off as another Nazi "thing." This is a "democracy thing" and we don't like the results. Oh yeah, both parties hated the Jews and any similarity ends right there.

1/28/2006

Another Hamas victory looming in Iraq? People like Nazis, extreme Leftists, and terrorists get elected when the real "democrats" become either corrupt or show their extreme ineptitude. Iraq looks more and more like a bunch of wannabees yearning for power rather than people dedicated to building a country. I have predicted for years on this blog that the eventual "winner" will be Islamism, complete with the subjugation of women and religious minorities with Sharia Law eventually being the dominant law of the land. Reading most of the Iraqi blogs today leaves one with the unmistakable feeling that there is no conversation for democracy, only a diatribe of many conflicting voices seeking absolute power. Allah will win.

JULIUS AND ETHEL ROSENBERG---DON'T WEEP OR RAGE, BUT THINK

The WSJ is running a piece today about how the Left is still trying to claim that neither of the Rosenbergs spied for the Soviet Union, and is rallying huge support. Below is my treatment of the Rosenbergs back in '03 republished here for your entertainment and enlightenment.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These two were convicted of spying for the Russians and executed on June 19th in 1953. There is no doubt that Julius Rosenberg was a Russian spy. The spare charges against his wife, Ethel, are suspect. In fact ex KGB spies say she wasn't a part of anything (LINK) . It was always clear that Julius collected data from brother-in-law David Greenglass and passed on to the Soviets. But Ethel did what, exactly? It is Ethel who keeps the Left fires burning and keeps everyone else thinking a lot.

A family that spies together lies together. Both Julius and Ethel had been members of the Communist Party and dropped out in 1943. Ethel had a brother named David Greenglass. Greenglass and his sweet wifiepoo Ruth, joined the Young Communist league the same year. It seems Julius and Ethel thought dropping out of the Party would make spying easier.

So Commie Greengrass gets drafted and eventually assigned to the Manhattan Project where the bomb is being made. His nineteen year old hard core Communist nut case wifiepoo is pining for him so she goes to New Mexico to "visit". During this "visit" she talks David into spying for the Russians (I know, a bad movie)

INT.MOTEL ROOM. NIGHT.TIGHT SHOT ON BED. RUTH AND DAVID
Naked and sweaty making love. The moonlight glistens off their sweaty skin. Her legs are wrapped around him as they pump madly.
RUTH
Oh God. David, David.....Tell me ....Oh, tell me you'll spy for the Russians and I'll come
DAVID
Oh Jesus, you're the best. The best. Oh, oh, oh, OK I'll spy.
RUTH
Ugh, ugh, for the Russians? For the Russians? Tell me, David. Tell me "for the Russians"..
DAVID
(screaming)Yes, yes, yes, I'll spy for the Russians.
RUTH
(screaming in ravishmental exaltation) Ahhhhhhh (Then... panting in his ear) If you steal something really good? I'll do something special with my mouth....
DAVID
I'll do it. I'll do it.

FADE TO BLACK

So David Greeglass agrees to steal whatever he can and pass the info to his brother-in-law Julius Rosenberg. There is no doubt that David Greenglass stole the design for the super secret implosion lens and then passed it on to Julius Rosenberg drawing by drawing and hand written note by by hand written note. Sometimes he passed them to a Soviet agent named Harry Gold who was also Fuch's bag man. Greenglass was a huge spy. So far, no Ethel.

When Klaus Fuchs, a major nuclear physicist and probably THE big spy at Los Alamos got caught, he ratted out everybody. Especially his bag man Harry Gold. Since Harry was also David Greenglass's bag man who passed the info to Julius Rosenberg many gooses were cooked. Everybody in the spy ring who didn't flee the country was arrested, and that included Ethel.

David Greenglass decided to rescue the ass of his pretty young wifeypoo "so she could be with the children" (ain't this too sweet for fucking words?).

INT.MOTEL ROOM.NIGHT.DAVID AND RUTH ON BED.MED TIGHT SHOT
Both are sweating after sex. During the scene her head will disappear from FRAME and we will know her head is in a very private part of David's anatomy. We will only see David's face
RUTH
Have you thought of what will happen to the children?
DAVID
Children?
RUTH
Yes silly. David Junior and little Ruth Anne. While you were roasting in that hot old desert I had some little Greenglasses....(Her head disappears from FRAME as she licks his chest)
DAVID
Gee, I didn't know. I'm a daddy?...Oh my God what are you doing? Jesus....
RUTH
(Voice is off screen)If I go to that horrible old jail like you what will happen to them? (moan)You don't want them without a mommy AND a daddy. Do you?
DAVID
God, God, what are you doing? Jesus, you're making me crazy.
RUTH
(Voice off screen like she may have something in her mouth)They need a mommy. You can make that happen, daddy. You know you can.
DAVID
(Wild with passion)How? How? I'll do anything....
RUTH
(Now her mouth IS full)You know what a bitch that sister of yours is???
DAVID
(Totally wild unable to function)....Ughhhh, arrgggh...Don't talk about that bitch now......

FADE TO BLACK

So David Greenglass ratted out his very own sister Ethel in exchange for all charges being dropped against his wife. He (now) says that he and his wife lied in court when they said that each of them rembered Ethel typing up documents transcribed from his notes. So the only "crime" Ethel committed was typing the notes. But it seems she may not have even done that.

PENALTIES
So the super spy Fuchs got a few years in England with no TV and then fled to East Germany where he lived the life of a super star Commie. Super spy Greenglass, the guy who actually stole all the stuff, did nine years; his wifiepoo walked. Harry Gold, the guy who sent all the info to Julius Rosenberg, got thirty years. Morton Sobell, another spy in the same case, got thirty years. Julius Rosenberg, who was a major spy, was executed. His wife Ethel, who may have typed some notes, was executed.

After the trial David Greenglass went to jail and Ruth went home to take care of the kiddies. When David got out of jail both took assumed names and moved elsewhere. He invented a number of devices, including a waterproof ornamental electrical outlet. When interviewed when he was 78 years old Greenglass, when asked if he would have done anything differently, replied "Never. "My wife says, 'Look, we're still alive."'

Both Rosenbergs kept their mouths shut til the end. Nobody knows why Ethel didn't just talk after the conviction but this "love story" has kept the Left burning for fifty years. Unlike Ruth Greenglass who stuck by her children, Ethel let hers go. Her conduct at the trial has been described as "dismissive", her testimony "contemptuous" as if she wanted to be convicted along with her husband.

It's clear that David and Ruth Greenglass loved each other. Loved the "cause too. They both threw Ethel Rosenberg to the electric chair so Ruth could "take care of the kids". Ain't that fucking beautiful? It's so...so....Middle Class.

Julius and Ethel loved each other too. So much so that she simply gave up on the witness stand. She wanted whatever it was that Julius got. She got it.

It may also be true that they were such fanatical Communists that Ethel decided to "make a statement". Nobody knows.

And then there is one more possibility. When Greenglass left jail the statute of limitations hadn't run out yet. However he cannot be touched now. He's still a Commie and so is wifiepoo. It's just possible that he's lying right now just to make the execution of Ethel look even worse; that she actually did type up the documents. After all she didn't sit in the Rosenberg apartment for two years with all the spy material from all over the country, not just Los Alamos, and not participate in some way. She did something. There are the Venona Cables. The decriptions show she was a knowledgeable accessory to espionage, and that she also recommended others to be recruited to the KGB. Greenglass has said in other interviews that both Rosenbergs could have saved themselves had they told the truth. They chose not to.

Traitors are different from you and me.

HOLLYWOOD FOLLOWS MSM INTO THE TANK, AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A guy named David Davenport left a comment on one of my posts that quoted from a fellow who calls himself Tap Scott . The post has to do with the decline of the print media, that hits the nail on the head. BTW, make the Tapster a stop. He's good.
Which Major Daily Newspaper Will Lose the Most Readers in 2006? Judging by the results of the non-scientific survey that has been running in the right-hand column of this blog for several weeks, it looks like The New York Times will be the big circulation loser for 2006 with 46 percent of the respondents checking the Gotham paper's box.

Second is The Los Angeles Times at 22 percent , while running third is The Philadelphia Inquirer at 11 percent. Biggest surprise is the low number of survey takers giving the nod to The San Francisco Chronicle, which lost an amazing 16 percent of its subscribers last year.

My personal pick is the Knight-Ridder Newspapers-owned Inquirer, which, along with the Philadelphia Daily News, has suffered staggering circulation, advertising and editorial staff losses for several years. The weakness of these two dailies is a major reason why Knight-Ridder is viewed by many industry observers as a prime takeover target.

For those who might wonder why this question is even a topic of discussion (and believe me, it is among the most intensely whispered-about topics at professional journalism gatherings these days), check out Hugh Hewitt's update of his Weekly Standard piece, "The Media's Ancien Regime."
How is this MSM meltdown just like Hollywood? The MSM is being irretrievably pulled down by their disconnected Left Wing editorial policies like a modern day Titanic headed toward the bottom, the slow slide to a final cemetary impossible to stop. The publishers won't fire anybody because they are just as left as their leftist reporters and they cannot fire their friends. Be aware that media ability to earn huge money, tied to the circulation of opinion means huge power; the power to persuade millions, the power to affect election results, or the ability to start and stop wars is an irresistable lure to the egomaniac in all of us. The money (publishers) will go down with their ships with their flags bravely flying and no stock holder rebellion can save the companies now. This state of things is no different than "Hollywood" (the American movie business), an industry that has seen its audience shrink ten percent and falling, and no matter what all the wise guys tell you, the drop is due to the lousy movies; movies most of us don't want to see. Nobody in the exclusively Left executive branch has any intention of changing movie themes, even if they could; in fact they cannot change. Not only have they all been "taught" in all the elite universities that stories must contain "social significance," they "know" that all stories must contain an "us vs them" theme, that bad guys have to be governments, that government(s) are corrupt and their allies (big business, never big labor) engaged in looting economies and countries. The money train, filled to the brim with rich Communists, Marxists, and Democrats, will not disgorge the slime that is producing shit like Syriana, Good Night and Good Luck, the terrorist loving movies like The War Within and The Day After Tomorrow, and tons of other Muslim ass kissing cinematic vomit. Expecting them to change is similar to expecting the mostly homosexual Catholic priesthood to clean the pedophiles out of the church. The church mucky mucks cannot attack themselves. There isn't much difference between the church, which has seen tens of millions of Catholics leaving their religioin in disgust, and the MSM/Movie complex which is suffering a similar decline. The homosexual-commie-America haters in the movie business will not clean themselves out because like the Catholic church, they cannot fire themselves. The business will cease to exist and I believe that it is the lust to make money, big big money, that will be seen as the ultimate cause of the disintegration of the movie business by Marxist analyists. Again, Marxists won't blame themselves.

Lots of us have detailed the secret left funding of various left movies but none of us has honed in on the Studios, the major players in the distribution of all Left Wing crap. Corporations exist to make money. Period. They don't care how it's done so long as it gets done. The distribution of movies (the transfer of prints to theatres and the resulting count of admissions) is where the money is begging to be stolen; tickets to a different movie than you actually see are sold, the people who take tickets at the door can pretend to tear your ticket and give you back another one thus creating a "back door" sale (three $8 tickets for $15 adds up); the actual "duping" (printing a print from a film in distribution) of film for transfer to CDs; all and more are what creative distribution is all about.

The really big money that can be safely skimmed off the top in movie distribution is the stuff legends are made of. Many of the old time moguls started by stealing movie prints and showing them in tents around the country. A "bootstrap" style of capitalism that still goes on.

As an example, here's just one of the things that happened to me. The distribs made fifty extra copies of my movie and just threw them out there in various markets. I got hip only because a slimy friend of mine in the porno biz told me to watch for it. Trust me, if you have 1,500 prints out there you cannot keep track them all. I did by having a company comb the daily papers so I could count the theatres in which the movie was playing. When I called the distributor on it the guy shrugged and said, "So sue me." To his surprise I sued him. And I won. So as we are all strolling out of the court the thief comes up to me and asks me for a distribution shot at my next movie. These guys are criminals and criminals do what criminals do, they fuck you. The same business style holds true for ads. How the fuck can you count every ad in every media? You are billed for stuff that never runs. Nuff said on that subject. At least we can be sort of happy that the distribs are now ripping off the hard core Left.

To continue: The studios see the European-Muslim grosses as at least fifty percent of their market and they would rather ignore fifty percent of the American market of around 150 million potential viewers than to lose the potential half a billion or so people in Europe and the Middle East. BUT pandering to foreign dogs has what is known as a "currency risk." In today's world the values of all currencies fluctuate day to day. This means if you want to do a deal based on admissions (tickets sold) for payment your grosses will vary every day because the currencies vary day to day. In addition, you don't know what the Uzbekistan Shit Bag is worth, but it ain't much, so whatever the suits say Uzbekistan grosses are they are lying. It is for this reason that many territories are just "sold" so that the cumbersome accounting can be bypassed. Foreign grosses of movies may never see a studio bank account, and the same can be said for movie videos and computer games.

As this sagging saga of the roaring boring west lurches to its obvious ending, continue to look for movies that none of us have the faintest desire to see, movies that are just loved to death by lefty clowns like Ebert and Roper. So long as the CIA, the American government, or American icons (the fruit cowboys in Brokeback Mountain or war mongering presidents of the United States) can be made either the villain or the object of destruction, the Left will consider themselves successful.

However, but, and hooray, a feel good moment is at hand for all us Left haters. Here are the recent daily grosses for Good Night and Good Luck: $453, $160, $208, and $220. But not to despair, you can bet that the left multi millionaires will make more fertilizer pellets just like them. That is because in the clouded world of Left Wing party goers the ultimate "social significance" is losing money doing things one believes in. The more you lose the more you want to lose. Gives you even more suite cred. And enables you to score great babes at parties.

Emailer Boarwild sent me a link to this terrific piece on current things Hollweird in the Brit Times of London. A few tid bits
This is Message Year in Hollywood. Fed up with the direction that America is taking — all this God, patriotism, traditional family, War on Terror stuff, America’s entertainment elite have taken the courageous decision to lead the fightback from the pool decks of Beverly Hills and the penthouses of Manhattan. Voting with their Armani tuxedos and their Isaac Mizrahi gowns, they’re going to take back their country from the warmongers and religious fanatics.
And nearly ends with
And having churned out all this bilious nonsense, Hollywood executives shake their heads in puzzlement as to why Americans have stopped going to the movies. Sure, it may have something to do with ticket prices and the easy availability of giant home entertainment systems. But having an 86in screen in the kitchen didn’t stop millions of people from going to see The Passion of the Christ or Narnia. Nor, lest you misunderstand me and think this is a plea for Hollywood to turn itself into the entertainment arm of militant Christianity, did it stop them going to see King Kong or Shrek?
The piece concludes with this famous quote from the most quoteable figure Hollywood ever produced, Sam Goldwyn
“A good movie is one which begins with an earthquake or a volcanic eruption and then works up quickly to some kind of climax.”
Sam would have a very tough time getting a job in Hollywood these days.....


WATCH THE HARD LEFT TAKE OVER OUR CULTURE WHILE VIOLATING ANTI-TRUST WITH IMPUNITY

Add to the list of Lefty trillionaire producers who can finance movies without making money, the names of Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner. Cuban we all know from his antics as an NBA owner who behaves badly because no fine will hurt him.

Wagner and Cuban own 2929 Entertainment and---GET THIS---these rich pricks have somehow gotten around the old Supreme Court Consent decree which forbad production, studio, theatre ownership combines. I guess that stuff is for everybody but Lefty millionaires. Wagner and his former Broadcast.com partner Mark Cuban own 100% of Rysher Entertainment, Landmark Theaters (the nation's largest art-house chain, with 59 theaters in 22 markets which guarantees them a 59 theatre release of amything they produce), and Magnolia Pictures Distribution; they also hold an interest in Lions Gate Entertainment. Add to all that, ownership of two movie production companies, 2929 Productions and HDNet Films, along with HDNet and HDNet Movies, two general entertainment high-definition television networks available on most major cable and satellite providers.

Cuban executive produced both the pro Palistian Terrorist epic, The War Within and the anti-McCarthy rant, Good Night and Good Luck. Now this guy Wagner is much less an idealogue than some of the other skillionaires but he sleeps with George Clooney on many of Clooney's Lefty enterprises.

Trust me, our culture has been captured by the Hard Left. Read this post below for more details.

GOOGLE CAUGHT THIS HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER SEEKING "TEEN STUDENTS WITH LARGE PENISES" ON THE WEB. SHE IS IN FEAR FOR HER LIFE. SOME REPUBLICANS WANT HER DESPERATELY.....

THIS INNOCENT WOMAN ALGEBRA TEACHER WAS JUST USING GOOGLE TO FIND A GOOD TIT WATCHERS PROGAM SHE COULD JOIN. SHE WAS SWEPT UP IN AN FBI GOOGLE SWEEP. CONGRESS WANTS TO TALK TO HER IN SECRET SESSION.

Quick Stock opinion: it's the flat yield curve, stupid. I have preached here for almost a month that the entire economy is threatened by these interest rates. Inverted yield curve means recession. This is true so often that this signal is an alert of the first magnitude. The Fed has hurt this economy three to four times in the past decade and they are doing it again. Rates are way too high right now when you consider that oil prices may hit $80 as US hating Chavez and Iran cut back on oil deliveries. It's like the Fed never reads a paper that has real world news in it.

Google (GOOG). Shares slumped 36.98, or 8.5%, to 399.46 in about four times its normal volume (a horrible piece of news). It was trading below its 50-day moving average; a major sell signal for this wildly inflated stock. It better rebound Monday or watch it die. It isn't all gloom and doom because if you are in the stocks you should be in, the IBD New America or their top 100 you are fine. Most actually rose in price in the face of this huge selloff. Examples: F5 Networks (FFIV) surged 2.08 to 61.59; Schlumberger (SLB), meanwhile, vaulted 7.38 to 122.25, an all-time high. This rise was duplicated in most oil exploration stock.

Let's hope Chirac nukes Iran over the weekend. Right now we are only in the beginning stages of what could become a serious game of chicken. Russia ain't going to be with us because they want a nuclear Iran disrupting oil in the region because that will help make Russia rich. Putin has basically restored the police state in that country and the state owns all means of production.

BILLIONAIRE LEFT MAKES MOVIES AND DON'T CARE ABOUT GROSSES

Note; this post is a synthesis of two separate posts from yesterday so that the reader can easily comprehend the subject matter.

I have been asking myself for more than a year why studio shareholders put up with the senseless expenditures of money for Left Wing movies most people will never go to see. The costs of the movies that are made don't represent all monies spent on them, prints and advertising cost a ton for even a cheap movie. The non political Hostel cost $4mil to make and it took another $18mil to market as an example of a hit. A movie like Syriana with Clooney and his Lefty pals raking in a ton of money up front (even though Clooney pressured everyone to take less than usual) is going to lose around $50mil before it's over when prints and advertising are considered; the horrible feminist rant, North Country, starring people who have never been movie stars (a star is defined as an actor or actress who can "open" a movie with an amount of money equal to the cost of production, or $100mil). Neither Sissy Spacek, nor the unknown---except for her bra size---Charlize Theron, the overpaid stars in their tortured "progressive" cinematic bowel movement, could rescue this political raw sewage. North Country cost around $60 mil with prints and advertising and was pulled from theatres after grossing less than $18mil (meaning the studio got back $9mil). All the Lefty movies put together have lost about $100mil so far, but the money keeps showing up.

Why? How?

Well another Left godzillionaire, Ebay founder Jeff Skoll, is the guy with the deepest pockets in the movie making room. He and he alone (he pulled in some co-conspirators later) financed North Country, Syriana, American Gun (a hate guns rant), and Good Night and Good Luck, all movies that have lost their asses in spite of Left Wing reviewers praising them to the skies. Skoll conducts his funding through his Participant Productions, which has this mantra on the main web page:
We hope our films will raise awareness about important social issues, educating audiences and inspiring them to take action.
His site then has a bunch of instructions to the Lefties who link there. Skoll is just ONE of the outside financiers. Do studios put up anything? Just prints and advertising; studios specialize in stealing money off the top (I have had up close and personal experience with them) so motion picture companies don't ever lose money on distribution.

The Left now enjoys nearly limitless financial backing from George Soros and his pet money machine, Open Society Institute; he is joined by the Soros clone, multi millionaire Peter B. Lewis, the main funding source for the ACLU; and rounding out this billionaire chorus is the E Bay billionaire, Jeff Skoll. It's important to note that these people are labeled "deconstrutionists" and that term applies to deconstructing entire countries, starting with Israel and then moving on to Eastern Europe and then the U.S. The awesome financial clout of the far Left is applied to publishing and movie making, with the movies being made assured of ink generating publicity at super Lefty Robert Redford's "Sundance Film Fest," always to be followed up by the chorus of totally Left Wing movie reviewers in the nation's Left Wing Press. These Hard Left financiers can afford to lose hundreds of millions of dollars on lousy agit prop movies and not even feel it. They are out to ruin this country and they admit it.

There are other movie backers who will only support Left Wing movies and they don't care of they make money or not either, so long as they make the political statement wanted. "Bought and Paid For" should be stamped on the foreheads of every Hollywood producer, writer, director, and actor.

You should know that the sole purpose of luring you into the theatre is to convince you in a mind numbing way that America stinks and must be destroyed; But not to worry, it will be replaced by a "progressive" system, a world without either Israel or those pesky democracies telling too rich geniuses what to do.

HOLLYWOOD COMES OUT OF THE CLOSET

The (not so) Golden Globes. There is no doubt that the 89 fascist supporting members of the "Hollywood Foreign Press Association," a clannish group composed exclusively of the America Hating Left, has rewarded its Marxist roots once again. This so-called awarding group has decided that homosexuality, trans gender heroes, and America stinks is what they want to project to Europe as America today. These Bush hating and America despising "reporters(?)" (according to the WaPost, many members make their living at other professions, including teaching, real estate, car sales and film promotion) who write for mostly communist or socialist newspapers. All have gone out of their way to kill Hollywood by heaping praise on mediocre talents with politically correct philosophies as well as the hundred or so semi-talents who produce boring agit-prop movies. The only break with continuing Leftism is to award Walk the Line so as to appear that they actually care about good movies, and even that is not true; Golden Globes have separated the comedy and music groups so that Walk the Line was the only movie in the musical category.

These Lefties have decided that homosexuality, transgender heroes, and America stinks is what America truly is and was and this is what they want the world to believe. They have gone out of their way to kill Hollywood for everyone who isn't a card carrying anti-American Lefty by heaping praise on mediocre talents with politically correct philosophies. They only rewarded Walk the Line so as not to seem totally out of the main stream.

So a movie about a big time faggot writer is awarded; a movie about homo cowboys (thus attacking American popular culture) is awarded; a movie about a transvestite lesbian and her prostitute son is held in high esteem, as is a movie depicting whores in cute costumes. And not to forget that they also heaped one of their obscene Awards onto America bashing Clooney for the hate America movie called Syriana, a movie that claims the world's biggest criminals are America, American Corporations, and the CIA in a time when terrorsts murder hundreds of people per week. Good old Clooney, let's all hope he loses millions.

None of these movies will find audiences no matter how the World Wide Left tries to sell them. They don't depict America. They do depict an increasingly irrelevant Hollywood

Investing 101 and Yahoo shares taking a hit.....I have posted here many times that Yahoo sucks big time; their news is sometimes days behind, some sports news doesn't show up at all, and their searches are just useless. Peter Lynch, THE investor's investor (Fidelity), said in one of his first rules: check out the retail store. If the kids are packing the place it's a hot stock on the make, but if nobody is there you better dump it. The same holds true for usage, meaning use it and if you don't have a first class experience don't touch the stock. Yahoo is totally out of it, stomped into the ground by Google and now Microsoft and they have only themselves to blame. What needed to be done was obvious to all, all except the genius class in charge. As an aside, the so called analysts obviously never bothered to use Yahoo at all, they just accepted the company hype.

Energy: boy is it getting scary. Chavez is selling oil below market price to governments he likes: Cuba and Bolivia. Iran is doing the same thing to China. What is left on the market after the giveaways is what we get. And I think you will find that Iran learned plenty from Saddam, knowing now that they can bribe almost all of Europe. Sanctions? Useless because they are already saturating the black market with oil and will get quid pro quo from the markets for anything they will need.

IRAN, IF YOU READ THE BLOGS, YOU ARE DEAD WRONG

I posted this back in 2003; right then and right today

Iran is The Godfather, Part IV

Here's the deal. Think Soviet Union in the last days dissolving to Yeltsen. Think crony capitalism, think criminals in charge of every business, police, a force of Hells Angels type motorcycle thugs called the Hezbollah militia working for them, the Revolutionary Guards who also work for them, and a secret police. The real power is a handful of clerics and their associates who call the shots behind the curtain and have gotten very rich in the process. Think mullahs getting rich running businesses given to them by Rafsanjani, who run things through murder and intimidation.

After the 1979 revolution the mullahs seized virtually everything of value--banks, hotels, car and chemical companies, makers of drugs and consumer goods. What distinguishes Iran is that many of these assets were given to Islamic charitable foundations, controlled by the clerics. According to businessmen and former foundation executives, the charities now serve as slush funds for the mullahs and their supporters.

What exists there now is a dictatorship run by a shadow government that--the U.S. State Department suspects--finances terrorist groups abroad through a shadow foreign policy. Its economy is dominated by shadow business empires and its power is protected by a shadow army of enforcers.

Ostensibly, the country has been run by Rafsanjani for the past 24 years. He's an opportunist and very smart. He has "privatized" the economy by divvying up the spoils to loyalists, and like a Mafia Godfather, he takes pieces of everything. He has gotten very rich in the process.

It is the youth that is taking to the streets. Here is the raw data, an estimate from U.S. Census Bureau; U.S. Department of Labor.

Population IRAN 67 million; USA 283 million

Percent under 25: IRAN 65% USA 35%

GDP per capita: IRAN $1,800 USA $37,000

Inflation: IRAN 25% USA 2%

Unemployment: IRAN: 18% USA 6%


Now Iran is pretty rich, only nobody but family is getting the money. The country's largest copper mine; the state-owned TV network; a governor of Kerman province; an outfit that dominates Iran's $400 million pistachio export business; key positions in the Ministry of Oil; the Tehran Metro construction project (an estimated $700 million spent so far) are all Rafsinjani family members. Today, operating through various foundations (more later) and front companies the family is also believed to control one of Iran's biggest oil engineering companies, a plant assembling Daewoo automobiles, and Iran's best private airline. Remember, all these better paid workers will be loyal to the government., the ones getting paid crap are ripe.

So guess why people are pissed? They earn $1,800 per year and the Rafsanjani family and their mullah buddies are multi millionaires and billionaires with wealth in real property all over the world. Anybody who reports this in the press is killed.

The balance of the economy is controlled by the Islamic foundations, which now sack the country and pocket the money too. They are just organized crime. If you get successful you are supposed to donate 20% of what you make to charity. The mullahs stop by and extort the money. Failure to "donate" will result in somebody saying you're a bad Muslim and you are tossed in jail. Don't think these "foundations" or "charities" are small time. One, The Mostazafan Foundation, employs up to 400,000 workers and has assets that in all probability exceed $10 billion. Among its holdings: the former Hyatt and Hilton hotels in Tehran; the highly successful Zam-Zam soft drink company (once Pepsi); an international shipping line; companies producing oil products and cement; swaths of farmland and urban real estate.

Keep in mind that all these "employees" of all these criminal enterprises will be loyal to the government. Think the Baath loyalists in Iraq. These "foundations" hire the thugs too.

So what you have is a mullahocracy of thugs with billions in business deals, and more billions in cash. They stand ready to spend what is necessary to stay in power. When push comes to shove they have always murdered to stay around.

The blog community would have you believe that a bunch of directionless kids marching in the streets without guns can throw these guys out; like the Europeans and UN actually scare them. The EU thugs? Africa which they bribe? China? They only fear the United States and until we really rattle the cage nothing will change.

Running stupid ads or doing websites is a fucking joke. More feel good crap. The USA is going to have to figure a way to topple these billionaires and I think and hope we are working on it. Keep in mind we cut off Alqeada money and funding. We can do some real financial damage to these guys.

A bunch of kids won't cut it. Add on 1/17/06: So the financial interests of the mullahs overseas is vulnerable, but the question is: how much do they own overseas? It's true they import rice and other foods but they have oil to TRADE for it. The current game of chicken with the mullahs in Iran might work, but there is nothing so dangerous as a Muslim who has lost face (other than taking the Colts and the points last weekend).

Not time enough to write much this week HOWEVER there is this observation about the lack of difference between the slumping Hollywood movie business and the near bankrupt U.S. Auto business: When you are in trouble simply copy past hits. I say this because the "hit" of the Detroit Auto Show is the "new" Camarro which is a copy of the 1968 model. Lots more at Auto Extremist, including the fact that Mercedes-Benz is tanking worse than Detroit. It's actually a somber read for those of us who wish Detroit would get something right.

Quick note on Iran: as I said before, they hold four aces and we cannot beat them with anything less than a straight flush. Our straight flush is first strike capability, and that's it. Pretty soon we may not even have that. Everything in Iraq will be for naught if Iran becomes a nuclear power because they will dominate the entire middle east. These are the most dangerous times since the Cuban Missle Crises.....

And we relied on the CIA to launch an attack inside of Pakistan. WTF, we should close it down. Are they Have they ever been right on anything?

Still working on my nuclear camera which came with a photo shop type of inclusioin called photo studio, which takes hours to look at the things you can do. Camera also takes takes a while to see some of the hundred or so things you can do. It's probably worth it in the end, but it is like applying nuclear physics to balancing a check book. All I want to do is shoot some fucking pictures. In conversations with five digital camera owners NONE know how to use more than the basic shoot, load into computer, print.

SUNDAY FUNNIES

Subject: Amuricunization

Two families moved from Afghanistan to America. When they arrived, the two fathers made a bet -- in a year's time whichever family had become more Americanized would win.

A year later they met. The first man said, "My son is playing baseball,
I had McDonald's for breakfast and I'm on my way to pick up a case of Bud, how about you?"

The second man replied, "Fuck you, towel head."

But seriously folks, Iran. VDH has a solid piece over at NRO and he covers all the bases together with the really bad choices we have, most of which wouldn't obtain if Bush had installed an energy policy as job one back in '02. Our consumption is outrageous. If both Iranian and Venezuelan oil were taken off the world market, fuhgedoubdit. Iran does not have to negotiate about anything, they hold four aces and only a straight flush can beat them.

HERE COME DA TERRORISTS, THANKS HUGO

I have a pal over a 20 year period who has lived at least half his time in Mexico and Central America. He speaks Spanish so well that cab drivers turn their heads when he speaks. He has an Masters in Spanish from Oregon State and he just got back from down there and here is what he told me.

Chavez (Venezuela President) has created a haven for Muslims in his country, many of them guys who are wanted in Europe. He is laundering identities, furnishing them with all the ID necessary, and does what he can to sneak these guys across his Northern borders pointing them to the U.S. He has been doing this for five years. There are roughly 50,000 Muslims in Venezuela, most of them in Caracas. Chavez knows that too many of them are another Paris, so he exports them if they look like trouble. When Pat Robertson pointed out that Chavez was a dictator and so on, our Left Wing pussies immediately jumped on him as they do whenever anyone says something disparaging about their fascist hero.

It's deja vu all over again that today's WSJ ran a major piece on Venezuela and Chavez which seems to indicate that he has done to Venezuela what every Commie on the planet has done to every country they have taken over: pauperized it. He has mismanaged the oil fields, put no capital into them at all so infrastructure is falling apart, over production has reduced recoverable reserves by 25% in just ONE YEAR, food is so expensive that people can't eat (even with the oil riches) and he sends money to Cuba. He is now playing kissy face with the mullahs in Iran.

If what the WSJ says is true we are looking at nearly zero oil in four to five years because we get something like half thirteen percent our oil from there.

LET THE CHICKENSHITS ROAR FOR BATTLE

A comment on Hillary's disgusting warrior pose designed to get all of us to think she supports the military. Malkin has most of the stuff including the rebuttals, but the main one that caught my eye is the weight of the new armor those 60s chickenshits say they want the military to wear. Hillary and the rest of her 60s draft dodging pals think that adding even more weight than the 75 pounds they already carry through 130 degree desert heat is something every combat soldier desperately wants. I didn't want to lug twenty pounds in boot camp, especially when they took us to Death Valley (this was before class action law suits). All I can tell you is that everyone in combat wants to be light, wants the freedom to move, the ability to run at warp speed. Life saving armor weighing more than 75 pounds is the stuff dreamed up by the gutless draft dodgers who comprise the "soul" of the Democratic Party.

Solution? Do what the Greek hoplites did back in the really really old days. Have whores and servants around to carry the armor til the shooting starts and then let the whores help you put it on, especially the special steel dick armor. Guys would want to get into combat and then fuck their armor carriers. The chances are good that no ready to kill and fuck modern warrior will get their dicks blown off.

Just a suggestion. Got a new digital camera and will spend much of the next two days learning how to work the fucking thing so blogging, if any, will be light.

Overheard at Rehab Center:
"They ought to have confirmation hearings for Senators....."
"How many other people in countries other than Turkey had Bird Flu and lived?"
"If I was Iran I'd tell everybody to fuck off too....."

The smart guys blasting pay radio and Howard Stern do not understand how much some of us HATE the fucking commercials. We will pay ANYTHING to be free of them.

And from that mental institution known as The Los Angeles Times there is this regarding Alito:
RULE OF LAW
Can He Protect Us From the President?
By Edward Lazarus
Or have Bush's power grabs doomed Alito's nomination?

Tip: visit I Steve once a week. He's got a lot of interesting stuff up right now.
And Kim Du Toit has a terrific essay and observations about rights. Do yourselves a favor and go there now.



And without further ado, my SLUT OF THE DAY Double click on the pic.....





Courtesy of I Don't Like you in That Way

This is Schultz's new web address. Is it temporary? WTFK. Now go there because as usual he's right on, great pics of those dynamite USC cheerleaders showing legs,


I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE REVENGE OF THE MEN IN BLACK

The hearings Democratic smear job on Alito makes me want to kill. Even though I'm angry at the Republicans and ready to vote Democratic or not vote at all, twenty minutes of watching those revolting excuses for senators try to destroy a decent man with any means that might work, they are trying their best to lie, ask 17 minute questions in an attempt to trip him up, and accuse him of being a bigot. The Democrats are a sorry sorry lot. Jesus, that pisses me off. The upside to this? You can bet that both Roberts and Alito will remember and rule accordingly.

I have quoted former super spy Herb Meyer many times on this blog. His video that he made last year is taking off like, oh hell like a whore at a church social. It's called The Siege of Western Civilization and lots of blogs and webzines are plugging it today. In a perfect world this DVD would be on TV so we could all see it, but because liberals control the media you will have to pay $19.95 to see it. It's not easy to buy right now because everybody is buying it. One more monster "fuck you" to the liberal media. This WND piece by Rebecca Haglin is as good as any to let you in on the contents. Just let me remind you that Meyer, alone of all the spooks, called the collapse of the Soviet Union based on what he saw during one single trip; of course nobody listened; well nobody but a moron named Reagan. A terrific old essay in NRO that he wrote is HERE. Herb is at the very top of the deck. A compendium of all his articles is HERE. He stands with Victor David Hanson.

Today's required reading: Heather MacDonald's piece HERE. She is at least as good as Rosett. Today she examines the Left bias of our nation's law schools and professoriat.

POST OFFICE TALES: The USPS has known for three months that thirty nine cent stamps would have to be available for the new rate hike effective 1/9. As of this morning, 1/10, there were no stamps anywhere in LA, the post office refused to sell any, and if you wanted to mail something you had to stand in lines 15 deep at every window to get a paper stamp that would be glued onto your package or letter.

I hate the USPS and everybody in it. Do your part and email everything, and pay your bills on line so they die.



Anti Christian TV show, "Book of Daniel" has advertisers bailing, and their ratings are a disastrous 2.7. What do you expect from NBC, a fucking hit? It's beginning to look like an awful lot of people who don't believe in God do believe in respecting the beliefs of others. The bad ratings have caused ABC to rethink their Hillary of Arc series.


EVEN MORE GOP CORRUPTION


Another GOP "fat cat" (fat cat's wife driving to money drop in Ohio, photo left) scam, as big as Abramoff? GOP being sued in Ohio for a kickback scheme to Bank One in a no-bid arrangement.
The lawsuit alleged Bank One engaged in a "kickback" scheme to funnel back to Republican Party campaigns some of the ample profit earned in the inflated dollar "no bid" deals. Hagan's lawsuit claimed the "pay to profit" scheme was a major reason Taft was able to raise some $12 million in the 2002 gubernatorial race, compared to approximately $1 million Hagan raised.
WND has been on this for a while, but it's beginning to look like a lot of "conservatives" are criminals who are in politics as a means to make a ton of money. The stink is beginning to spread to a town near you.

1/10/2006

I was going to write about the despicable movie, V for Vendetta, a left wing smear job on the U.S., Christianity, Republicans, and America in general. But Libertas has done a much deeper (but far too long, again) review and I urge you to go over there. This is quite simply a terrorist suicide attack on our entire culture by the Barbarian Left Wing culture of George Soros and the Move on dot Org crowd that hopes to overwhelm us with the positive reviews they just know the Lefty critics will give it. The movie is British and it is not el cheapo.

I won't give it any ink here so hopefully it will die.

Another two reasons to condemn Bush for his actual handling of the terrorist threat as opposed to his supposed handling of it. Go here to National Review today and read the horrible facts about the German release of a murderer of a U.S. Citizen, read about how the Bush Administration is lying about their knowledge of the release, and see if you can support the GOP any more. The story of the victim of terrorists and the release from prison of his murderer and principal torturer will enrage you.

Just this year on the tenth day of the first month we have Julie Myers at ICE and the release of this murderer. Let's hear it for good ol' George......Fuck you, George.

Oh, and Debbie Schussel has the goods on the All Muslim Bank in San Francisco, a lending institution which is supposedly run in strict accordance with Shria Law, and accordingly means they can't charge interest for loans. But guess what? They do and do and do. All this on the courageous Bush watch snooze.

Oh, and Osama is dead, while Bush slept. Do you really think he has the balls to deal with Iran? Even worse, is there any Democrat with the balls? Or any Republican? We are a bunch of morally equivalent cowards afraid to judge anything by any standard at war with a billion people who absolutely know their standards and are willing to die for them. Oh, I know, let's get Nancy Pelosi in power. She'll have us surrender over a roast beast dinner in San Francesspool while the drug addicts and homeless cheer her on.

HOLLYWOOD'S LATEST: PUKEORAMA FOR KIDS

When Hollywood Lefties want to make money they turn to torture, violence, and gore. The latest “hit” from America's cultural slime pit is a little gem called Hostel. Anti Bush? No. Anti GOP? No, but there is a “hate freedom” message that decorates the first part of the movie, a message that makes all Lefties feel devine. The first twenty minutes or so blames everything bad in the Eastern European locale of the movie on getting out from under Communism and going to freedom and free enterprise like the horrible United States. Who cares about content so long as America is made to look bad? And movies that make America look bad will get good reviews in the Lefty press. So after blaming the USA the movie gets down to basics.

Hostel is an attempt to reach our children with a violence that is so obscene, so loaded up with depravity and corruption, so drenched with torture and murder that one wonders how in the hell the MPAA gave it an “R” rating and not an outright NC17. Making America look bad is always worth an "R" to the Hollywood Commies at the MPAA no matter how depraved the content. The story?

OK, you asked for it. The “story” revolves around a couple of horny young guys who pick up a couple of local slutty looking women and end up prisoners in a dungeon of horror. The emotional and physical torture is never ending. Victims are subjected to a slow, extremely painful death. Vomit, blood and gore are constant. Victims are burned, cut, subjected to twisted surgical "procedures", eye balls are ripped out, body/faces are drilled by an electric drill, body parts are cut off, etc...all while the victims are alive and aware. Most viewers past the age of 25 couldn't watch most of the torture but the horrendous screaming of the victims reminded them of what was happening.

But not to worry, there’s a Hollypuke Happy Ending. The movie is making big bucks. Remember these are the people who won't entertain our soldiers overseas, who contribute to every hate America "cause" on the planet, and patriots who criss cross the country lecturing us on morals and ethics.

In another triumph for our ever alert media, an Oprah hyped "non-fiction" book that has sold more than three million copies is......FICTION. The book, "A Million Little Pieces," has been outed on Smoking Gun and Right Nation. Just another example of MSM just going along without so much as checking a police report. If a business did this it would be consumer fraud, but Lefties write books and hype books so nothing will be done.

Vince Young goes to the NFL and other goodies. Young is right because he risks an income destroying injury on every play. Those of you who saw Cincinatti's Carson Palmer get put out for the season on a play in which he just got tapped can appreciate the risks. The reason Matt Leinert didn't come out last year is that he was injured and required surgery; nobody knew if he had an arm left until a week before this season started.

And Debbie Vick, Michael's younger and stupider brother (and herpes carrier who is busy infecting every slut on campus), got kicked out of Virginia Tech for committing a personal foul that was clearly designed to cripple an opposing player. During the Gator Bowl game against Louisville he was caught on tape stomping on the left calf of Louisville All-American defensive end Elvis Dumervil after a tackle. This means that Debbie, AKA Marcus, who was also arrested in December for driving with a suspended license (again), is coming out too. Boy, Maurice Claret Jr. will be on everyone's must draft list.

I only mention this two bit punk because it seems like college presidents and athletic directors have finally grown sets of ethical balls and have decided not to tolerate any athlete who misbehaves. This might mean something. Then again it might not because VaTech covered up the driving violation until AFTER the Gator Bowl game.

However the root cause of Marcus Vick's problem is clearly his mommy, the same one who led cheers in the Georgia Dome when Doug Johnson, the Atlanta starting quarterback at the time, got injured. The injury meant that her darling Michael could play. This horrible woman's comments regarding Marcus's attempt at mayhem was that "everybody does it." It is really amazing that big brother Michael has stayed on the straight and narrow with a mother who is clearly at the lower end of the IQ chain. BTW the youngest Vick was also arrested in '04 for trying to get underage girls drunk, something his mom no doubt thinks "everybody does."

Here's some pix of USC cheerleaders that TV wouldn't show

IT'S SIEG HEIL AND ABU AKBAR IN CORPORATIONS AROUND THE GLOBE

The stink about Microsoft, Yahoo, and everyone else accused of "selling out" to the fascist Chinese just bores me to death. They are all corporations. Corporations don't exist, they are paper creations of people just trying to make money and nothing else. Corporations have no memories. They don't care about civil liberties, the Constitution, raping babies, or copulating with horses. Their only purpose is to stay in business....so they can make money.

Anyone who expects morality out of corporations, cartels, or monopolies is viewing their own rectums from the inside. The individuals in a corporation you ask? "It's our way or the highway," say the suits at the top, and they say it in Chinese, Hindi, Arabic, English, and whatever other language is out there.

That's why Hollywood is so Left. The money to be made is in the fascist countries. America is now just another small market to them, another stopping place before making movies cheaper in Syria becomes possible.

1/7/2006

Blogger sleaze updates: Glenn Reynolds is using links to pad his pocket.....again. He links to his own book ON ETHICS without so much as a mention that he is linking to money. It's beginning to look like almost all conservatives are pathologically corrupt, I say pathologocally corrupt because they don't even know they are corrupt, it's just the way it is. Keep in mind that every link to Pajamas Media puts money in their pockets as well, but they don't tell you. Reynolds also links to a truly useless site that has a "babe of the day" who I wouldn't piss on if she was on fire.

Closet Jews as bloggers continues with Simon blowing old news and fears. I exclude LGF from this blast because he is totally up front about his POV and restricts his blog to things Israel and Jewish. My dad's half of my family is all Jewish, I have been immersed in Jewishness from time to time since birth, and I am totally on the side of Israel in the Middle East. However, only bloggers like Simon and Johnson seem to turn away from the obvious Jewish assault on the Middle East in 1947 when they were "awarded" land there by the UN; the Arabs and Palestinians have one hell of a point. How would we like it if Jews were awarded Alabama, and they just moved in with guns and tanks? What's that you say? The UN would dare do it? Because we are too strong? Right.

Abramoff is innocent? You must be kidding. Well....not exactly. Many are pointing out that his contributions to Congressional people are not illegal (more links here). Only illegal if the legislators were paid to vote a certain way on a certain bill something, that even if true, can never be proven. He'll get his for fraud against the tribes and stuff, but my bet is that not one politician will swing.

A 2006 prediction: the Julie Myers appointment to ICE is going to bite the GOP in the ass come November. She will be the last straw because her appointment absolutely proves that Bush is as corrupt as the rest of his party. Be sure you have a permanent link to Schussel who has been all over this since Christ left Chicago. She really lets loose today.

Web Shopping Alert: be sure you check the customer service lines of the company you are buying from. I kept my distance from two sites in which customer service NEVER answered their phones, nor did they reply to my emails.

PORN QUEEN UPDATE

So it's New Years Eve and my and my stoned out lady pal decided to rent a porno from Adelphia on Demand (knowing it was total XXXXX) to get us even more in the mood. We picked what looked to be the dirtiest piece of shit available and clicked on. OK, it was BJ City with all the trimmings BUT all eight of the girls in the movie were total dogs. How total? If you saw any of them at a party you would not go over to say "hello" to any of them.

Last nite with nothing more to do I logged onto Adelphia which linked to the porn channel to see what was what. Nothing is what. Just hype for the "most bizarre sex ever" and so on. But there was an article on Google about a "model" from the Mid West who came to Chatsworth to make some bucks in porn before heading back. She shows up. She is really hot. Everybody wants her. She makes (get ready for this) 250 movies in roughly 180 days at $500 a pop in cash and splits. Think about that. These girls now do a movie for $500 TOPS, and to make a killing agree to be screwed in every orifice for hours at a time twice a day for six months, and to swallow. Remember, they are not being done by needle dick the bug fucker, but by guys with huge hammers. Most "normal" girls "work" no more than ten to fifteen times a month and even then they are out of the business in three years. When you consider the sheer volume of porn movies, there must be ten thousand of them out there every year, it's not surprising that they have run out of good looking girls and are using dogs.

Anyway that's the news.


NARCISSISM UPDATE

The arrogance of physical talent is part of what we saw in the Game of the Century. According to all reports, not only did Bush execute the dumbest Rose Bowl play since Cal player Roy Riegels ran the wrong way back in 1929; Hiesman winner Matt Leinart, threw first half passes like he was on the moon (I've been saying for two years that he will never be an NFL quarterback); and the other super stud running back, Len Dale White, decided on the crucial fourth and two late in the game not to follow his blocker who had made a huge hole for him, but to create his own hole. Narcissim decided the outcome of the game as much as the talent of Vince Young. What can we all learn from this? Not a fucking thing.

1/5/2006

Questions on a Zig Zag paper:
If a woman can marry a dolphin without anybody raising a stink, why can't two men or two women marry each other?

If Bush is really so passionately interested in saving us from terror that he authorizes tapping telephones without court authorization, how can he appoint the raging incompetent (and shack job of a prominent person) to head the ICE? Her name? Julie Myers. Sound familiar? Heard of Retired General Richard Myers? She's his daughter. Heard of DHS Secretary Chertoff's Chief of Staff John F. Wood? She was his shack job. Doncha just love that Bush? Asked if she slept her way into the job, Myers replied, "I did very little sleeping when I spent nights with John Wood."

DuToit's 2006 predictions
include the expolosive speculation that "Paris Hilton will finally get laid." His prediction for the '06 elections may make you reach for the seasick pills.

You must read Debbie Schlussel at least twice a week......

There is a major layout over at I Don't Like You in That Way of movie stars who should never wear bikinis, called Bikini Grossness. However they are nice enough to include a layout of Victoria Silvstedt making it worth the trip. Be sure you click on the pic below


OK, it was the Game of the Century but the century is only six years old. Texas had the best team and his name is Vince Young who clearly should have won the Heisman. If he chooses to come out he will be the number one pick in the draft, not Reggie Bush whose ego was much larger than his talent; he inexplicably tossed a lateral that can only be described as moronic, a lateral that cost USC a touchdown, he fumbled once, and proved that a great running back can be stopped by speed. The only story of the game was how in the hell Texas didn't win by a couple of TDs. Vince Young says he may stay in college, but if he does he will be taking a huge risk; a knee or shoulder injury could end it for him. Anyway I'm sure all you fans saw the entire game and saw the best two teams in the country slug it out for fifteen rounds.

IT'S NOT THE GAME, IT'S THE ANTICIPATION OF THE GAME THAT WE ALL LOVE

It ain't 1946, but it's close...While we all immerse ourselves in the Anticipation for tonight's Texas vs USC "Game of the Century" we hope for a hell of a game once the hype dies down. "Games of the Century" don't usually turn into anything more than a game of the week; only a few have turned out to be great games. But if you think the current Anticipation of the USC-Texas Game is wild, it pales to nothing when compared to the anticipation for blood that took place back in 1946. National Heroes were pitted against National villains. Most fans wanted to see actual blood and a few deaths wouldn't have been bad either.

The real college "?game of the century"? took place between two undisputed undefeated football powerhouses. One team was coming off three years of losing, the other was continuing a run that was approaching three undefeated seasons during which they had buried opponents by average scores of 56-4 and 46 to 5. They had run over their current undefeated opponent "like Patton ran over France;" running up scores of 59-0 and 48-0 over the past two years. So what was the big deal way back then?

The big deal was the two teams, Army and Notre Dame, clashing in a rivalry that dated back to the 1920s when somebody named Knute Rockne invented the forward pass just so little Notre Dame could beat a favored Army team and go down in football lore.

The much talked about Army teams of the mid forties ran up their record during war time by beating up on the physically unfit for service. Called 4Fs, these guys had absolutely no chance against the "best of the best"? and were in school because nobody would accept them for military service. Most of the country with relatives killed in action or still serving in combat hated the Army football teams, referring to them as "a bunch of draft dodgers." The guys who lived after serving overseas hated them too because others were dying in their places.

The Army guys knew that more than fifty percent of the West Point graduating classes of 1941 through 1944 had been killed in action while even more were wounded. West Point was not the place where cowards went to train for the soft life.

When the war was finally over, the players who had been in the service "came back," many with no higher purpose than to play against Army and destroy them. No university had more hard core combat veterans than Notre Dame, the team of 4Fs that Army had slaughtered during the war. The all male Notre Dame campus was so filled with hate for the Army team that during the week before the game things almost got out of control. They wanted to stomp Army, to destroy the draft dodgers from the Hudson. Priests actually had to restrain the pep rally from getting violent after a guy who lost both legs on Tarawa led the student body in the Notre Dame fight song. Talk about crazy.

The Army Notre Dame football game of 1946 took place against the background of hate for the Army team as well as love for it from a large part of the country who felt that the Military Academy guys would do their duty if called and were ready to fight at any time. It was a game of national hate vs national love. Draft Dodgers vs the much hated Catholics. Two legendary football powers during peacetime were to clash in "The Battle of the Century." Everyone in the country was reaching back to a pre-War 1941, a time before their sons and fathers been killed in the war. To them the game was unfinished business. To make it even bigger, the battle to the death was to be played at a sold out Yankee Stadium in New York City.

How did it turn out? The legendary Army backfield of the now mythical "Mr. Inside" and "Mr. Outside" (Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard) was held in check except for one long Blanchard run; Army made it to the Notre Dame 30 just four times. The kill crazy Notre Dame team, which was filled to the brim with soon to be all pro players, mounted one drive that failed on the four yard line and that was it. The defensive stars of the game were the two future Hall of Fame quarterbacks, Arnold Tucker and Johnny Lujak (this was the day of the two way player). Lujak made a game saving tackle on the sprinting Doc Blanchard which "saved the game"? and Tucker intercepted a pass in the endzone that Lujak had tossed from the four yard line, an interception that "saved the game." The total offence for these two offensive powerhouses was barely over 400 yards, 219 yards for Notre Dame and 224 for Army. The final score of 0-0 pleased nobody, the tie ended Army's multi year unbeaten string, and Notre Dame'?s war heroes ended up the Number One college football team in the land.

The only Army All American who dodged military service was Glenn Davis who was basically a bust when he joined the NFL, helping the story that Army was picking on cripples during the war. Never mind, the anticipation for that "Game of the Century"? is still the greatest ever, even though the actual game was a bust.

Let's hope for better tonight because neither the USC nor the Texas teams padded their records by beating up on 4Fs, The Eyes of Texas will be upon them and USC will "fight on."

Coal Mines: I've always felt that the main offices of entire executive branchs of coal mines, including CEO, should be located at the bottom of the most active mine shaft. What would happen to 200 safety violations then?

NO GUARANTEE here but supposedly this will increase fuel efficiency up to 35%. More info is here. Naturally you really check this out before trying.

OMFG it looks like we're all going to have to go back to the days of driving a girl to a remote spot and telling her to "put out or get out" in order to get laid. Shrinks say that at least fifty percent of women don't like sex at all, but now it looks like it will go to ninety percent. Women are now likely to be totally disinterested in fucking if they are taking the pill. Hey, that's why God invented guns ain't it? A return to real masculinity is at hand. "Hey bitch. Where to you want it, heads or tails?"

HOLLYWOOD FOOLS FEWER AND FEWER PEOPLE

From Boarwild quoting the Honolulu Advertiser as they see right through the current Left Hollywood....
When terrorism goes to the movies in the post-Sept. 11 world, we might expect the plots, characters and themes to reflect some sort of believable reality. But in Hollywood, the politically correct impulse now overrides all else. Even the spectacular pyrotechnics, beautiful people and accomplished acting cannot hide it.

Instead, moviegoers can anticipate before the opening credits that those characters who work for the American government or are at war with terrorists will likely be portrayed as criminals, incompetents or people existing on the same moral plane as killers. Take this fall's "Flightplan," in which the U.S. air marshal on board and a flight attendant turn out to be the true terrorists. Meanwhile, four Middle Eastern males are unfairly put under suspicion in the lynch-mob atmosphere on the plane. The film warns us that the real threat after Sept. 11 is certainly not young Middle Eastern males on planes who might hijack or crash them into iconic American buildings. No, more dangerous in Hollywood's alternate universe are the flight officials themselves — who in reality on Sept. 11 battled terrorists only to have their throats cut before being blown up with all the passengers.

A slickly filmed "Syriana" is the worst of the recent releases. The film's problem is not just that it predictably presents the bad, ugly sheik as a puppet of American oil interests while the handsome and good independent crown price is assassinated for championing his oppressed people against Western hegemony. Or that the conniving corporate potentates have big bellies and Southern accents while the goodhearted, sloppily dressed George Clooney is double-crossed by his stylish, pampered CIA bosses safe in the Washington, D.C., suburbs. "Syriana" also perverts historical reality. Everything connected with the oil industry is portrayed as corrupt and exploitative, with no hint that petroleum fuels civilization. Hollywood producers might not see many oil rigs off the Malibu coast, but someone finds and delivers them gas each morning for their luxury cars.

And who are the really greedy? Do the simple arithmetic of pumping petroleum in the desert: After expenses of typically under $5 a barrel, rigged cartels in the Middle East — run by Iranian mullahs, Gulf royals or Libyan autocrats — sell it on the world market for between $50 to $60. They don't merely price-gouge Americans in their SUVs, but also Third World struggling economies in places like Africa and Latin America. Plus, in the real world outside Hollywood, does the United States really assassinate Gulf royalty who wish to liberalize their economies and give women the right to vote?

Contrary to the premise of "Syriana," the gripe against contemporary American foreign policy is just the opposite. Realists, isolationists and leftists alike damn the United States as naive or foolish for obsessing over democratic reform in Afghanistan and Iraq, pressuring Saudi Arabia and Egypt to hold valid elections and insisting that the terrorist patron Syria leave the voters of Lebanon alone. The price of gas skyrocketed after the American invasion of Iraq. And oil companies, especially French and Russian, were furious when Saddam Hussein's kleptocracy fell — and their sweetheart deals were nullified by a new democratic Iraqi government. Moral equivalence is perhaps the most troubling of Hollywood's postmodern pathologies — or the notion that each side that resorts to violence is of the same ethical nature. Steven Spielberg best summed up the theme of his recently released film about the 1972 murder of 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics and the subsequent Israeli hunt of the perpetrators: "A response to a response doesn't really solve anything. It just creates a perpetual-motion machine."

Spielberg's "Munich" assumes just such a false symmetry between the killers who murdered the innocent athletes and the Israeli agents who hunted them down — each in their own way victimized and caught in a cycle of "perpetual" violence. Lost in this pop moralizing is the reality of 1972, when none of Israel's neighbors were willing to accept the existence of the Jewish state within even its original borders. Then there was no chance that Israeli agents would storm an Olympic event and murder athletes — but every probability that the Soviet bloc, Western Europeans and Middle East autocracies would never hunt down international terrorists who had done so to Israelis.

Actors, producers, screenwriters and directors of Southern California live in a bubble, where coast, climate and plentiful capital shield the film industry from the harsh world. In their good intentions, these tanned utopians can afford to dream away fascist killers and instead rail at Western bogeymen — even in the midst of a global war against Middle East jihadists who wish to trump what they wrought at the World Trade Center and Pentagon.

If Hollywood wants to know why attendance is down, it is not just the misdemeanor sin of warping reality, but the artistic felony that it does so in such a predictable manner.
