Michael Moore, Communist and Idiot..

I was recently watching a television program entitled “Aerial America”. This specific  episode was about Michigan. While showing and discussing the auto industry, Detroit, Flint and surrounding areas, they mentioned Michael Moore and his mocumentary “Roger and me”. The show described it as “exposing corporate greed” because while GM was closing Michigan factories, they were experiencing record profits.

Good thing I didn’t have a mouth full of liquid or I would have spit it out… The thing that kills me about most leftist and a growing number of regular Americans that listen to these idiots is they believe that Corporations/businesses exist to serve only two purposes. 

1    1.    Provide jobs

2    2.    Provide health insurance

When any company makes adjustments to their operations in order to realize their real purpose, maximizing profits (no, I will not apologize for using foul language), they are greedy and evil. It may be too late to save us from this idiocy…

The Breaking Bad Finale

Spoiler alert... If You have not already watched the final episode, do not read this...

 

 

 

 

I was reading several reviews of the Breaking Bad Finale. First, they all loved as did I. The show as a whole was one of the better TV dramas aired in years. As I have said to others, I think it is because most current shows do not take the time to develop three dimensional characters. Breaking Bad sometimes slipped in a fourth dimension. The characters were believable and you found yourself rooting for them. Even the characters you didn't like you found yourself actually enjoying their discomfort or even death.

My real purpose in this posting isn't to critique Breaking Bad. It was a very good series, I will probably watch it several times. What my real purpose is to critique the NY Times 'critique'. You see the NYT likes to pass it self off as the American Journal. "All the News Fit to Print".. The passage In the critique I found to be laughable is the following:

"Here, the writers were so determined to not leave unfinished business that the last episode was called "Felina," an anagram of finale."

While I have to admit that I didn't catch on to the fact that Felina is an anagram of Finale... I do know American Culture, especially American 20th Century Western Culture. As Walt was digging though a car he was stealing, in the glove box he found a cassette tape. The cover plainly showed that it was Marty Robbins' Gunfighter Ballads and Trail songs. This Album was in the top five in 1959-60 and the hit song that reached #1 in both Country and the Billboard Hot 100 charts was "Old El Paso" The Song is about a Cowboy that kills another for the love of a girl name Felina. He runs away to avoid death, but has to comeback to see her one more time, even though he will most likely die. The song ends with the cowboy shot through the chest saying "One little kiss and Felina... Goodbye". Walt is even singing the song to himself as he prepares the M60 machine gun..

 Walt, can't stay away from Albuquerque, he sees Skyler, and Holly one last time. He goes into the Neo-Nazi compound, even though he knows he will die. After the shoot out, as the police sirens wail in the distance, he walks into the Meth Lab that he designed admiring his work. He walks up, touches a vat, leaving a bloody hand print and falls down dead... "One little kiss and Felina... Goodbye"


That is the tie in to Felina.. IMHO.. By the way, the music selection for the entire series was great.
The closing song by BadFinger Baby Blue was excellent.

Student Indoctrination

Have you ever wondered why your children are being brainwashed in school and especially college? Why do these institutions that take your money in taxes and make you pay for the privilege of removing all of the values you as a parent taught them? It is quite simple once you understand the reason:

Vladimir Lenin said, "Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted."

In order for the Government to control us all, we have to relinquish our rights and individuality. That is why Obama's biggest support comes from the 20-29 age group, they have been brainwashed by their leftist teachers and professors to believe those like him will bring prosperity and equality to all. Unfortunately like all Fascists and Communists, all they ever bring is subjugation and despair.

We can only promise an equal chance, not an equal staring point nor an equal outcome. The hard work is up to the individual. If the individual fails, it is up to that person to learn and try again or give up. If you never try, or you believe that the road is to difficult, then that is your responsibility, not mine.

It is ironic that the leftist belief system was created by those who were most discriminated against. They were hoping to create the perfect society wherein everyone was equal. Like the mad scientist who attempts to create the perfect man, and instead creates a monster that in the end is the source of his own demise. Marx and Engels were Jews, the Soviet Union, the first country that attempted to create their heaven on earth, instead created a hell, and an especially hellish existence for Russian Jews.

As Churchill stated (I am paraphrasing),"If you are not a liberal when young, you have no heart, and if you are not a conservative when old, you have no brain". If you have read Orwell, especially "Animal Farm", Our current crop of twenty somethings are the draft horse, working with their hearts, we can only hope they wake up and use their brains before they and all of us get sent to the glue factory..

What Is Your Life's Blueprint? - Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

The 50th anniversary of Dr. King's I had a dream speech was on August 28th. Of course it was hijacked by the Democrat Party and the American Left. Dr. King's adversaries most of his life were members of the Democrat Party, to include it's militant wing, the KKK (yes the KKK was established by Democrats, and 99% of KKK members that have served in Congress were Democrats).
I wish our children would hear things like this more often, especially in the inner cities..
This may sound to some like something that would come from a Republican or a right wing extremest, Dr. King was a Republican after all..


What Is Your Life's Blueprint?
Six months before he was assassinated, King spoke to a group of students at Barratt Junior High School in Philadelphia on October 26, 1967.
 

I want to ask you a question, and that is: What is your life's blueprint?

Whenever a building is constructed, you usually have an architect who draws a blueprint, and that blueprint serves as the pattern, as the guide, and a building is not well erected without a good, solid blueprint.

Now each of you is in the process of building the structure of your lives, and the question is whether you have a proper, a solid and a sound blueprint.

I want to suggest some of the things that should begin your life's blueprint. Number one in your life's blueprint, should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your worth and your own somebodiness. Don't allow anybody to make you feel that you're nobody. Always feel that you count. Always feel that you have worth, and always feel that your life has ultimate significance.

Secondly, in your life's blueprint you must have as the basic principle the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor. You're going to be deciding as the days, as the years unfold what you will do in life — what your life's work will be. Set out to do it well.

And I say to you, my young friends, doors are opening to you--doors of opportunities that were not open to your mothers and your fathers — and the great challenge facing you is to be ready to face these doors as they open.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great essayist, said in a lecture in 1871, "If a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon or make a better mousetrap than his neighbor, even if he builds his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door."

This hasn't always been true — but it will become increasingly true, and so I would urge you to study hard, to burn the midnight oil; I would say to you, don't drop out of school. I understand all the sociological reasons, but I urge you that in spite of your economic plight, in spite of the situation that you're forced to live in — stay in school.

And when you discover what you will be in your life, set out to do it as if God Almighty called you at this particular moment in history to do it. don't just set out to do a good job. Set out to do such a good job that the living, the dead or the unborn couldn't do it any better.

If it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music, sweep streets like Leontyne Price sings before the Metropolitan Opera. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say: Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well. If you can't be a pine at the top of the hill, be a shrub in the valley. Be be the best little shrub on the side of the hill.

Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be a sun, be a star. For it isn't by size that you win or fail. Be the best of whatever you are.

New Rock Anthem

As a youngster, I discovered Jimi Hendrix's version of the Star Spangled Banner. He needed something to play at Woodstock, unfortunately, when he arrived, the concert was almost over and most of the crowd had left. So he broke into an impromptu electric guitar version of the Star Spangled Banner. I came of age with the Heavy Metal wailing of guitars, so this easily became my, along with many of my contemporaries, favorite rendition of our national anthem. I was just introduced to this second version by "Big Sis" (not a description, a term of endearment). She also introduced me to Jimi's version at the age of 9. Both give me goosebumps, and as Big Sis used to say when I was a wee lad "Dude, I shed a tear".. I am also including one of my other favorite patriotic songs by  the original "Ray-Ray", Ray Charles.

Punish the Over Achievers

This kid has won the summer reading contest five years in a row and the librarian wants him to stop entering so other kids can win. How about some other kid reads more than him?  Why don't we ban athletes that win more than one gold medal so others can win?

This reminds me of the 5th grade. In the mid-western state I lived in at the time, we had to read 15 books during the school year, three from each of 5 categories. I read 72 books because I didn't have a TV and lived with my Grandmother 3 miles from anywhere. Unfortunately, they were all from, History, Fiction and Sports (most of the books were Science Fiction and Westerns because my father had a huge paperback collection). I don't remember what the other two categories were, but I wasn't allowed to go to recess until I read six books from the missing categories (three from each). No other kid in my class read more than 20 books, but I was punished for not reading the "right kind" of books instead of being commended for reading 72 books.

Make Mine Freedom

Here is a cartoon I remember from my childhood, It was produced by Harding college in 1948, the beginning of the Cold War. It is basically propaganda telling us how much better Capitalism is than Communism. Even propaganda can be truthful. Unfortunately, young Americans didn't get exposed to this type of propaganda. They have been subjected to Left wing drivel most of their lives from the "Captain Planet" cartoon to most of their teachers in school to all of their Professors in College/University. They have been led to believe that Corporations  are evil and either want to destroy the environment or don't care as long as they make a profit. The only solution is for the Govt. to control all of these bad greedy Corpratists.

Enjoy this blast from the past..
