An Experiment in Adjusting an Alcohol-based Reality Filter. The more beer you drink, the more the world seems to make sense. I'm not sure if this is the beer's fault, or the world's. Experiments proceed. For pigeonholing purposes, I consider myself a South Park Conservative: I believe in Loose Women and Tight Borders but I'm getting anime porn and legally mandated lounges for day laborers...further adjustment to the model may be needed. e-mail me at slayerdaddy-AT-yahoo.com

California Puts Legalized Pot on November Ballot!
There IS an opposing position, but it's INCREDIBLY NSFW...
Rupert Murdoch Endorses Immigration Amnesty?!
No surprise here: Look at the rogue's gallery he's associated with: Hewlett Packard,proud exporter of embargo'd technology to Iran under Carly Fiorina, Mayor Bloomberg of NYC, the food nazi whose war on transfats has led to charity kitchens throwing away tons of food meant to help the homeless in the middle of a derecession, Boeing,still trying to claw that tanker contract back from Airbus. Plenty of folks who wouldn't mind making nice nice with an Administration free with the checks and happy to hold a grudge.
Rupert Murdoch has never been shy of cozying up with distasteful political movements, as witness his censorship of his own author at his own publishing house, Random House, to curry favor with the red Chinese government. And for all that Fox has been embraced by conservative mainstream America, it has never been the rightwing bastion that its detractors paint it, as anyone who has ever dealt with Fox/KTTV in Los Angeles can testify.
Portrait of the Media Plutocrat as Ragpicker, 2010
Although Murdoch himself is as much of a transnational plutocrat as George Soros, he is, as he has always been, a businessman, a tradesman, a merchant. He follows the money. If pedophilia tested well with focus groups, Cardinal Law of Boston would be hosting Fox News Sunday and Dennis Leary would be playing a wise-ass gay priest cleverly outwitting clueless parents to get at the altar boys. Right now the money for Fox News is on the American right,but the money in DC is with the globalist left. It's naive to expect Rupert won't chase both.

Chinese Navy Steaming for Oakland!
A task force of the People's Liberation Navy has left harbor in China, heading for the US port of Oakland California following the blockading of a Chinese freighter by anti-Israeli activists and American leftists who apparently can't tell the difference between Hebrew and Chinese...
Under the guise of'anti-piracy operations, the Chinese fleet nears the California coast...
Spokesmen for the Chinese government declared the action was in defense of "legitimate national interests" and undertaking to defend the lives and property of millions of Chinese immigrants, documented and not, who have settled in what the PRC calls "Occupied America".
WH Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that the President wanted to oppose the occupation of Oakland but was unable to do so, "because it would offer the GOP no reason to accommodate the Administration on comprehensive immigration reform."
Senator John McCain (Weathervane-AZ) said he would probably have an opinion on the invasion in a coupleof days when he saw how it was polling...

Heley,Scott in South Carolina Landslide for Tea Party and Conservatives!
Now let me get this straight: Republicans in South Carolina, the slave state, the racist state, the nasty inbred Baptist redneck state,the state that fired the first shot in the Civil War... just selected an Indian woman and an African-American man to be their candidates, while the Democrats voted overwhelmingly for...a felony sex offender.
