The Government is Laughing in Your Face

A couple of things are going down right about now that people need to know about, but you won't hear on any mass media outlet.

The heads of state for Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. met a week or so ago in Canada to further discuss terms of their Security and Prosperity Partnership deal they are working on, otherwise known as the North American Union. They want to eliminate the borders and merge the three nations into a giant super state, with giant unsupervised highways running from border to border right through the middle of the U.S. Most people say "Thats ridiculous, they're not doing any of that", but fourteen states have now passed legislation opposing the super highways and the SPP. When asked about the recent meeting of the three heads of state in canada (which were met by large crowds of protesters and ended a few days early), each head of state came up with a different lie.

Canada's Prime Minister Harper said:

“The rules for jelly bean contents are different in Canada and the United States…. Is the sovereignty of Canada going to fall apart if we standardize the jelly bean? I don't think so.”

President Calderon of Mexico said the meeting was for “parameters for chocolates.”

Here's an excerpt from an article over at firesociety.com:

"Of course, President Bush took the opportunity to take pot shots at citizens like you and me who are questioning the SPP. He said he was “amused by some of the speculation” and dismissed it as “political scare tactics” centered on “conspiracy” theories. (Remember that the President used a similar approach in the amnesty debate, going to Mexico and chiding his fellow Americans for this lack of compassion toward Mexican "migrants")."- Steve Elliot

If that isn't bad enough, the recent deal that was made to allow mexican truckers to haul their loads into the U.S. instead of turning them over to American truckers at the border is going into effect and letting the trucks start to roll this weekend. That's right, the weekend we celebrate Labor Day, our right to work a decent job at a decent wage, they are going to allow mexican truckers to start usurping the backbone of our country: the trucking industry. On Labor Day itself no less. With the unemployment rate rising as the American Middle Class is fighting a losing battle against the rich upper class, the Government has the nerve to laugh in our face by mocking us on Labor Day with Government backed job outsourcing.

And if it weren't bad enough, it gets even better. These mexican truckers that are going to be coming into the states with their loads won't be required to take the Homeland Security class that was mandatory for all American truckers. Remember the two border agents that are in prison for doing their jobs a little too well? Well guess what, it turns out that in the trial we find out that the mexican drug smuggler they shot had a mexican commercial drivers license, and then he was caught a second time smuggling a truck full of dope across the border. But of course that's irrelevant to the case as it was dismissed and he was given a pass that lets him come and go as he pleases, courtesy of U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton (which by the way you can sign the petition to have him removed as U. S. Attorney for the Western District of TX here).

So what were they really doing at the SPP summit in Montebello, Quebec? Recently it was released that the "North American Plan for Avian & Pandemic Influenza" was finalized, not the regulation of the jelly bean and chocolates. Here's the opening paragraph of a long article over at WorldNetDaily detailing this plan:

"The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America summit in Canada released a plan that establishes U.N. law along with regulations by the World Trade Organization and World Health Organization as supreme over U.S. law during a pandemic and sets the stage for militarizing the management of continental health emergencies." - WorldNetDaily

Yes, you read that right, this "North American Plan for Avian & Pandemic Influenza" gives the U.N. and the World Trade Organization full legal power over our country, effectively pronouncing the Constitution null and void if they so chose. And if that doesn't tickle your goat, how about this:

"At the same time, the U.S. Northern Command, or NORTHCOM, has created a webpage dedicated to avian flu and has been running exercises in preparation for the possible use of U.S. military forces in a continental domestic emergency involving avian flu or pandemic influenza." - WorldNetDaily

Let's not also forget the recent executive directives Bush put out, effectively declaring himself supreme dictator in total control of the government in the event of a catastrophe, pandemic, etc. The guidelines put forth as to what qualifies for these conditions is left intentionally vague. I'm sure most of you are saying at this point "But how can he do these things without the approval of Congress and the Senate?". Well kids, that one's easy, he's doing it anyway, and not really telling the Congress anything about it.

Chew on that for a while.

Sweet Movie Trailer: I Am Legend

The New Will Smith movie has Smith playing Robert Neville, the last man alive. Based on the 1954 novel by Richard Matheson, Neville somehow survives a huge pandemic infection of a bacterium that seems to cause most of the well known symptoms of vampirism. Though it causes the infected to have an aversion to garlic, a craving for fresh blood, and seemingly invulnerable to bullets but not stakes or sunlight, they aren't quite your intelligent full fledged vampires from the cult classics. They're closer to the raging zombies of the 28 days/weeks later variety, only, y'know, vampires.



From what I've read, the book does a great job of painting a picture of anguish and despair as Neville works on boarding up and fortifying his home during the day, and hunting down the infected vampires by night. I don't care what anybody says about Will Smith, this movie looks like it's gonna be pure steak sauce: A-1 baby.


--------------------POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT------------------------









I don't know if this is the way they're going to take the movie, but in the book Neville is the only one immune to the virus, but eventually he discovers he's not the only one alive. Neville happens across another class of folks that while still infected manage to keep the disease at bay for parts of the day. But, like you do, Neville goes about killing these folks along with the rest of the infected. Then one day they capture him and reveal what they are to him, making him realize that he had become the monster that terrified the living.

The Puppet Master!

For awhile now I've been reviewing instructional dance videos online to find that new dance move that would set me apart from the rest the next time I got into a dance off at the discotheque. I do believe I have found such a move, and it is called the puppet master. Here's a video so you all can join in!

AvP: Part Deux

Check out the new unrated trailer for the next installment of Aliens Vs. Predator



Of course it looks cheesy as hell, in case you missed it, it's Aliens versus Predators. On the plus side, it looks like they realized they're mistake from the first movie: Not enough Alien on Predator action with helpless idiots in the middle that don't stand a chance.

It's official

We prize beauty over brains apparently. Personally, I give about as much attention to the Miss America/Teen/Universe/Trailer Park competitions as I do my car's inspection sticker, but with some of the answers these girls give in this competition it's pretty obvious they stopped training for the whole intelligence portion of the competition a decade or so ago.

This one takes the cake:


The fact that only one in five Americans can locate the country they live in on a map is sad enough, but having some bimbo on stage using terms like "The Iraq" and "U.S. American's" and blaming the problem on the possibility that some citizens just don't have maps, let alone comparing our education system to South Africa is pretty shameful if you ask me.

It's bad enough that we fall behind a number of other countries when it comes to innovation and scientific research, but we don't need a retard that has no place joining a discussion in a high school government class as a 'role model' for teens and kids. Our society no longer does a good job of promoting the sciences in order to get kids interested in becoming engineers and researchers. Our schools are still the best in the world as far as the science's go, but nowadays most of the graduates are here on education visa's and go right back to their country once they've gradated.

What do you think after you watch this video?

Documentary Spotlight: American Jobs

Ran across an interesting new documentary in my daily travels across the web today: American Jobs. It looks like the usual: guy gets camera, guy goes around the country getting personal stories from ordinary folks affected by the topic he plans to cover. Seen it a number of times in new documentaries that have been popping up the last few years, but overall it seems to be a pretty decent formula.

In the film American Jobs, the filmmaker goes around collecting the stories of folks that have had their jobs outsourced so the company could save money/make more money from cheaper labor. Anyone that has called customer/technical support in the last five years has no doubt already learned of this greedy business when you finally get someone on the line and neither of you knows what the heck the other is saying. One lady in the trailer of this film got a packet detailing the day she would be fired, the day or two after she was to train her Indian replacements. From what I can tell from the trailer, he talks to folks ranging from mill workers to Boeing technicians to systems analysts. I'll post a follow up to this in a week or two once the DVD comes in the mail and I get a chance to watch it, but off the cuff it looks good.

The Head of the Machinists union that Boeing laid off workers from says in the film:

Several years ago one of their leaders made the statement 'This is not a family operation, this is a team, and like any team we can replace the players'

How jacked is that? Check out the website for the film here. Check out the trailer and the extra clips.

What Justice System?

Apparently we don't have much of one anymore. I like to think that at least in Texas prosecutors wouldn't bend over backwards for celebrity's that break the law. Then again they probably don't have to worry about it much, all the celebrity's get arrested in California. Maybe the rich and famous are the only ones that really take the slogan "Don't Mess With Texas" seriously.

The District Attorney in California where sweet little Lindsay Lohan decided to commit multiple felonies finally filed their case against her, only instead of the felonies she should be charged with, they're giving her a slap on the wrist with seven misdemeanors instead. It gets better once you read the DA's explanation:

As to why no felony charges were filed, the DA says Lohan's cocaine traces "were below the .05 grams required by office policy for felony filing." Sources tell us there were also problems even proving she was in possession of the drug. As for the second case, a law enforcement source tells us the manner in which the cocaine was seized was questionable. In addition, the source says the amount of cocaine "didn't meet the threshold for filing." But there's more to the story: In deciding whether to file felony cocaine charges, the D.A. always looks at the person and the circumstances. In Lohan's case, the fact that she was busted twice in a short period of time actually helped her. It shows someone is struggling with an addiction problem. The fact that each time she was busted, she immediately checked into a rehab facility also helped her case. Also, her age -- 21 -- and the fact that her upbringing was extremely unstable -- also worked in her favor."

Can anyone else tell me what is extremely wrong with his entire statement? Last time I checked, when Joe Smoker gets pulled over on COPS and they find a few marijuana seeds in his car, he's going to the slammer, all cause of a busted tail light. Yet dear Lindsay gets into a wreck while under the influence of COCAINE and probably a good deal of booze, then leaves the scene of the accident with her coke still out in plain sight in the car, they simply shake their authoritative finger at her. If Joe Smoker got busted twice in a short period of time, he probably won't get bail the second time around, but in Lohan's case it's a good thing. What about all the crackheads and meth addicts out on the streets begging for change or stealing stuff? I'd say that shows someone struggling with an addiction problem alright. I doubt their upbringings were very stable either, a lot less than poor little Lohan.

On top of that, is it just me or does it seem like these young female celerity's are battling to see who can gain the reputation of raging lunatic quickest? From stealing a car to chase your assistant that just quit to yelling at nannies that are raising your kids for you, they sure did come out of the gates running.

I find it real difficult to accept that we live in a country that will quickly cater to the needs of an illegal drug smuggler in order to imprison two border agents that were doing their job a little too well, but when they catch a celebrity red handed on multiple felonies, they get maybe a few days in the pokey maximum. Sad state of things folks.

Political Chewtoys

The White house's Press Secretary, Ari Fleischer, has began leading a white house front group in order to defend Bush's escalation of the war. The group has recently spent millions (probably our tax dollars) to air this tv ad for their cause:



Then when old Ari was on MSNBC's show Hardball and the host of the show asked the simple question "What was the soldiers name in your pro-war ad?" all he could reply was "Well, I don't have his name in front of me right now..."

Can anyone tell me how utterly pathetic that is? If you're going to use a veteran who has lost both of his legs in a thus far fruitless war, have the common courtesy to know the guy's name. What a slap in the face to all veterans that have served in this 'war on terror', that the administration has no problem using you to promote their agenda when they screw up and look bad, but they don't care to remember what your name is.
