bin Laden 29 May 2011

Telegraph reader Michael Cookson sent us this fantastic photo, saying this is “a red deer known locally as Bin Laden. He got his name when one year he was injured in the rutting season and the local villagers looked after his wounds and fed him tidbits. After that he lived in the hills and came down to the village for food and attention. In this picture he is in Sheena’s Tea Hut which is in the village of Corran on Loch Hourn in the West Highlands.” [Michael Cookson]

“More Nuanced”. “Differentiated” Ah yes –
Can’t you just feel the ole Hope For Change You Can Belive In ~gurgle~gurgle~gurgle???
I heard a campaign slogan last night for Slobama, for 2012:
All the Bush Policies but half as evil!!!
There were quite a few others, all irreverent as hell. I laughed myself silly…. not that it will make any difference.
Lordy… taking a break from a movie I am watching and dropped in for min or two to the memorial day extrvaganza in front of the capitol.
More fascistic than ever. Total 911 overlay, gag level.
All the years to come will be borrring. And long.
Joe Mantegna and Gary Sinise officiating.
Not enough in-flight barf bags for this one.
hmm the rictus imperialis at the Capitol has descended further.
I drifted back thru… BB King looking in need of a graveyard (and a grave to fall into) croaking out, Let’s Get Together and Bring Peace to the World with a listless audience – some in military drag swinging to the mess of it all.
Colin Powell, Mullen and I think Steny Hoyer in a line, clapping.
More croaking from BB King.
Someone finish us off.
The EU is rushing to draft a second Greek bailout – this one whether the Greeks want it or not:
Yet another “socialist” government that is in bed with the bankers.
with unprecedented intrusive external supervision of Greece’s privatisation program
I read somewher or other, that the supervision is invasive enough to be, essentially, a loss of sovereignty…
This was actually written by a grown man….
(Clue: That time of year again.)
Who is a teacher.
But the real thrill! … But the real fun!
How about the real fuckin BOOB? Good Lord, LOLZ.
And those two anti-war hippies, teacherken and Meathead Whatsisname, packing off supplies for the FRONTS.
What is this imaginary “activism” these imaginary blog celebs imaginatively speak of?
..uh course™,
nothin says Anti~War like a weirdo treat bag via a goofball blogger convention to break up the monotony of marauding, mayhem, and murder on behalf of the Empire.
Maybe they can pack off some more Body Armor and 14-inch thick steel plate.
That was one of the things that first made me think, who are these people? Because in my view, they are self serving high chair residents. Spoon fed pabulum.
And so on.
I remember one time at kid oakland’s blog an actual long time East Bay oakland activist stopped by in comments. I bet all this ”activism” shit had festered with him… he politely asked kid o what he had done, in particular. The commenter mentioned quite a few actions, activities, races, etc that he had been involved in, wtih enough detail that it was unlikely he was lying. He mentioned, maybe we have worked ont he same issues, actions….
Kid o – I guess gulping audibly, was reduced to saying he had worked on some in home parties, as an attendee, where people called prospective voters.
Thud.
I’ve paid attention all my life, but I am not an activist… and I sure would never use the word.
LOL. Indeed. They’re nothing of substance.
For it was…. NOT written:
The time will come when legions of hard core street activists shall spring forth from ye blue-balled loins and come to partake of the flowing chocolate fondue at a Vegas reception thrown by Mark Warner.
And the lions will lay down with the Big Dawg.
Over a nice lunch, ye know, at the Clinton
sub-let up in Harlem.
😆 😉
Yeah I really laughed at kid o. INDOOR work. At a partay. A few partays. Finger food and a glass of vino I bet…
I mean, not even tabling in the cold, outside a safeway. (Where of course one might be … like, you know, SHOT)
😆
Scream with laughter!!!
oh teacherken is just an operative imo. Pedantic as well………….
He’s posted pics of himself in the halls of congress…. I think he is like a mini Informed Consent – Cole type.
Such old harridans, writing “what I did in my summer vacation” crap for the over 49.
Waste of flesh and bone, as I see it.
LOL Good Lord, -> I <- think he's he's pedantic!
😆
I’m glad I never head over to the Big Orange Leg Humping Express, reading more than one post like that would melt my brain.
BOLHE
I like that… 😉
Had the opportunity to listen to KGO’s Only Liberal, what a relief from the normal pedant (speaking of them) finger wagging. Wish she was on earlier, and during the weekdays. For the little I listened early Saturday, re Gaza, I thought she skillfully handled the pro Zionist bullying well, especially the younger, second caller.
Thanks Marisa!
I like her quite a bit… and we have beaten up a sort of email back and forth.
I htought she was good on Gaza and the flotillas… I wish the flotilla people, themselves, had been better. But, take what one can….
I am not … taken in, I guess would be the best phrase… I know KGO has to broaden their listener base, I think even they know they are loaded with aging pro Israel fuddy duddies…… and one way is to have one or two more liberal voices… and I know as we get closer to election, she wil hew to the orthodoxy and exhort the vote for BamSlam… but c’est la vie….
She was on this am from 9 – 12 filling in for the anchor, highly paid morning guy. Who is a tired old Jewish shit, out of Brooklyn… well versed in being a Cali transplant. Well versed in being a conservative propagandist in fake liberal clothing… Putting her on am, whcih they have done a few times, tells me her phone lines, even at night on the weekends are B U S Y… for which I am thankful.
the other slot you might enjoy is Karel… who is on weekends 7 PM 10 PM… He has done several hours this weekend slamming Obbie.. and apparnelty gotten hate mail, email… LOL.. what a hoot.
Thanks hon, will check out Karel, I really miss being able to listen to the radio, or watch the tube occasionally, without finding it necessary to make sure I’ve got the remote in hand to shut it off in disgust at unrelenting messages of “necessary” punitive action and brutality; and the glorification of predatory behavior and technologies.
He can be quite manic, so if it gets to you, just check back with him at another time. He is concentrating a lot on social services, health care, costs of services, what is offered, what really exists when you go line up for it… what is being taken away… and slamming Obster.
He too will come to the fold, and still inserts it.. but I will take it for the information…
He did an HYSTERICAL hour on Saturday of Obama 2012 slogans. Oh I laughed so hard, I enjoyed it.
Very irreverent.
One was:
We’ve gone black! We can’t go back!
and
Yes We Can! But We Won’t!
Yes We Can… and maybe we will.
On and on, oh it was hilarious.
With that description, I think I’ve heard him before, and yeah he did get on the nerves, but I’d put up with it to at least hear some truth inbetween the lines.
well being manic, he goes up and down… just 😆 adjust accordingly…
:0) ;0)
I just thought I’d wave hi to everybody. I checked out for a much-needed week of R&R and pretty much quit reading the nooz. Back to the rat race this week!
Glad you had a wonderful break!
(Glad you are back too… 😉 )
thanks! I missed you guys!
of course it was:
as the US appears to be heading towards outdoing, even, Nazi Germany at it’s foggy beginnings, …just before the blatant ovens…
interesting that ABC doesn’t link directly to the You Tube video, where it is plain that it doesn’t “appear” that he’s being choked, but that he clearly is. The video is embedded here: Body slammed and choked by cops for dancing at Jefferson Memoria
yeah, it is pretty interesting, ….especially since they make such heavy use of videos …. otherwise.
well…oopsie fuckin doopsie! …the second blockquote, was my rambling. Of Course,… ABC NOOOZ,…is way tooo “refined” (and OWNED), to blurt out any such thang.
(thanks for the correction, hon!)
AL Mayor: No FEMA Trailers Allowed For Tornado Victims
I htink that is what they plan for Joplin too… and other places.
I got a real [twisted] laugh out of listening to ObRama in Joplin. Good luck to everyone! Rely on the churches. Be happy!!
Etc.
I have to say that the “Public Servants” running things – Localwise, Statewise, and Federalwise, must be pretty formidablly armed, to the fuckin teeth – to have not heard yet, of a successful headshot to the rotted brain …not at all advocating it, I won’t be the one, ….but, it almost seems like the odds are against their luck so far.
They did not get a lot of play but St Gabby definitely had done her share of campaign showing off with big guns… Pics of her aiming and displaying.
And it’s come out over the years that DiFi has a conceal carry permit. One of the very very few in SF, they are impossible to get … and Carly Fiorina and her husband both have conceal carry permits.
Aside from all the security they have access to ….
yup, Locked and Loaded, …along with their security. …Gun Sights,…are on that Public …which they claim to serve…… Mostly, because they realize they are not actualy serving that “Public,”,…and…. because they know: how small, petty, vengeful,… and murderous, they themselves are,….so they arm themselves to the fuckin teeth.
Oh it think it is a lot simpler. They run things and they know it, everyone else, out there in the dark, is the enemy. About to come over the fence any minute.
period.
Well, …..I may have been boringly verbose..but I thought my meanderings made some kinda “simple” sense? …..anywho,…YEAH, ……Duck Ya’ll …DUCK! ….the fuckers are on a rampage.
;0(
I don’t think they concern themselves at all with their pettiness or cruelty or any of the rest of it. Nor do they feel vulnerable for any of that…
DIFi can be quite nasty about the electorate when she is caught off guard. And she certainly enjoys the spot she has in life.
As do all the rest of the third rate barkers and bouncers, cons and thieves in the political class.
Oh, ..I’m not saying they concern themselves with their ugliness and cruelty, I’m just saying they’re fully aware of the potential response it might bring.
As to how vulnerable they feel to the consequences of their hideousity,…I tend to think they might occasionally worry about being out in public.
