Grandma Got Molested At The Airport

Nice to see the humor in America's TSA policy, also known as Gate Rape.


‘Wikileaks Has Proven the First Amendment is Dead & Gone!’

My hat comes off to the executive at Fox that allowed this to slip through.

The ultimate oxymoron - Fox News

Fox News, owned by Rupert Murdoch, has to be the most blatantly biased media channel in America. Widely regarded as the publicity arm of the Republican party, there seems to be no limit to their distortion of the truth. Most thinking people are well aware of this and quite happy to voice their opinion as the video below shows.



The Urban Dictionary definitions for Fox News display how highly this service is regarded amongst younger people.

iSpy with my little App.

A handy way to make you a ‘better citizen’. The Patriot App links your iphone to American security and law enforcement agencies via the Internet and allows you to report anything you want at the touch of a button. Nice to know that for a small fee you can help big brother in his war against terror!
 
I have an App suggestion for the developers.... One that documents the false statements made by the government, they can call it iLied.

Wikileaks' Cablegate: the truth is out there

Great comedy assesment of Wikileaks saga.........

Time magazine's clerical error.

It appears Time magazine, due to technical error, printed the wrong cover this week. Here is a copy of the original draft.....

Bradley Manning subject to KGB tactics?

The latest development in the Wikileaks saga seems to be the American authorities promising a plea bargain to Bradley manning. All he has to do is name Julian Assange as a fellow conspirator. Easy, just sign this confession that we've prepared earlier and the pain will stop.
The purges of communist Russia spring to mind here. What next? Gulags for citizens that don't tow the party line?
To my mind the true irony of the last ten years is 9/11 was an attack designed to bring down the united states. It's looking more and more like they succeeded.

How to create an Angry American

As America pursues Julian Assange over leaked documents, It's worthwhile giving people a reminder just who the real criminals are.

More George Carlin - We Like War.

For the Athiests amongst us.


For those of you with religious convictions, that's fine. I wouldn't dream of questioning your faith. We all have the right to believe what we choose to.
Personally I'm more aligned to George Carlin's views on the subject.

Quotes that make you think.

Americans have different ways of saying things. They say "elevator", we say "lift" ... they say "President", we say "stupid psychopathic git. - Alexai Sayle.

George Carlin ~ The American Dream.

You'd better believe what this guy is saying, he knows how it works.
Behind all great comedy lies a fundamental truth.

Freudian Slip?

The oldies are the goldies aren't they....?

George Orwell - Animal Farm.

Favourite George Orwell Quotes.

I'm a voracious reader. Always have been. One of my favourite authors is George Orwell. A man truly ahead of his time when it came to understanding how governments operate. Here's a collection of his quotes I'm particularly fond of.


During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.


All the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting.

Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
 
In our time political speech and writing are largely the defense of the indefensible.
 
Political language... is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.

Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting. 
 
War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.


The three levels of lying.

What a wonderful world it would be if honesty really was the best policy.
Sadly, the first rule of life is that people lie. It's a protection mechanism and part of human nature.
So do yourself a favor and think about the three levels of lying when faced with ANYTHING anyone says.......

Level 1: The stated fact.
Example: I'm not feeling well.

Level 2: The true intention.
Example: I can't be bothered going to work today.

Level 3: The underlying motivation.
Example: My job sucks and I need a break.

Behind every statement is a hidden truth.
In the above example level 2 is occasionally obvious. Look beyond that to level 3 and you are inside the head of that person.
Try it, you'll be amazed at how transparent people really are. We all do it and most of us don't even think about our own third level!

If you third level somebody else you have an advantage, your ahead of their own thinking.
