Why is Keith Richards still alive and rockin'? Should we follow his drug-induced lead or just give-in and admit we're wrinkling like Average Pirates without a mirror to sabotage our sense of Well Being?
And then, on to more noise from my addled brain, WHY wasn't Angelina Jolie with her mate, Mr. Pittsky, seen anywhere behind or before the cameras during his jovial-mumbled MTV Movie Awards Presentation last night? I mean, they once touted not being apart for more than 3 DAYS! Has love been long-lost or is it simply professional survival as Independents? Hmmm. Tell me true.
Why aren't WE THE PEOPLE "Getting It" that Social Security really isn't on the Budget Chopping Block as much as everyone screams about it? Changes to SSA has/have happened in the past with no horrific discourse or dire consequences. Could it be that this time the sabers from the Far Right are rattling louder, cloudier, and - gasp - more frighteningly extremist than one has seen in politics since the 60's? Huh? Huh? You tell me after you do a bit of research such as THIS - and it is not all the GOP's Fault For A Change.
I wish some of my High School FB "Friends" would cease and desist on shoving Jesus in my face every day while touting guns in the same sentence as if Obama is going to walk up to their doors and rip their weaponry out from under their Bunkers with Jesus' blessing. Wow! Without Jesus and Guns, our country is Doomed, I tell ya'. Doomed! Or so "they" constantly "say."
And, as Jon Stewart has so frequently pointed-out, what's the deal on the GOP's endless focus on Sex? Sex with animals. Sex with curtains. Sex with ones' Self; Sex-sex-sex on the brain: in Lawmaking, speeches, focus. As written here a trillion times since this blog began publishing in Late 2010, the GOP is more concerned with what goes on in our bedrooms than our boardrooms - ignoring Jobs, Jobs, Jobs for diversions on Sex-Sex-Sex. Well, considering how often a GOP politician is "caught" doing some kind of dastardly sexual deed we may as well sign-off right now on any expectations of a Congress willing to look beyond their twitchy crotches to achieve anything to do with the True Crime of Corporate Ownership of our government.
So, let's please continue to say "Less Government" while most of the politicos on the Far Right want to spend the night under our beds. Yeah (I swaggered), you've heard this complaint a thousand times from almost every Liberal Writer. There is a reason for the repetitiveness. Pay Attention! How can we have "Less Government" when all the Right-Wingnuts care about are/is how we have sex; with whom we did "IT"; whether women should have any "say" in what MEN are deciding about their bodies almost Every. Single. Day. And now, HOW anyone - straight or gay - SHOULD conduct themselves in the privacy of their Sex Dungeon's?
I'm more than a tad concerned that so many men (and a few mis-guided women) are beating that gavel into broken pieces while the economy barely trickles along due to no help or ideas to fix it because what appears to be a frantic group of Very Repressed Sicko's who are only focusing on Women's Bodies one way or another. Doesn't that incessant focus bother you - even a little bit - when it concerns politics/laws instead of How The Country Can Make Money Again Without War?
Really. Aren't you just more than a bit alarmed at the priorities of the GOP Base? I am. Cuz it's as Base As Base Can Be.
Oh dear. I'm sounding off again. I had hoped to find a few lighthearted comments to share that are twirling through mine mind. I gather that's not gonna happen on this Monday Post of Random Thoughts, but, never fear. I'm sure to find more insipid thoughts to share in the future which will inevitably lead me back to screaming at the ocean, desert, and the trees in the canyons.
Have a glorious day/afternoon/evening/middle-of-the-night and/or dawn.
Over and almost out - for now.
