OFF TOPIC - GOING POLITICAL!!! WILL RETURN TO FAT TOPICS AFTER 2012 ELECTION!

ATTENTION!!! I SHALL BE GOING OFF-TOPIC FOR AWHILE UNTIL AFTER THE 2012 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AND THEN I SHALL RETURN BACK TO DOING  MY USUAL FAT-RELATED TOPICS AGAIN SOMETIME IN JANUARY 2013 AND I SO DEARLY HOPE THAT OBAMA WINS!!!

And by the way . . .

Yesterday, September 30,2012 was my 61st birthday. I was born
September 30,1951 up in Northern Minnesota.

Anyway . . . . . on to my latest topic.

MITT ROMNEY IS A FUCKING RETARD!!!

OK, before I talk about the recent Republican National Convention, and the more Recent Democratic National Convention, I have some books that I highly recommend for all of my interested readers.

Over the past few months or so, I have ordered these following books from Barnes & Nobel.

This one is by Chris Mooney published just this year in 2012, an excellent book! THE REPUBLICAN BRAIN - The Science of Why They Deny Science - And Reality. Brain scans have revealed that there is actually some structural and neurological differences between the brains of liberals and conservatives.

This book was published back in back in 2005 and the paperback edition was published in 2006, also by Chris Mooney, titled The REPUBLICAN WAR on SCIENCE. I haven't finished reading this one yet. I'm about half-way through it.

Here is another one of my all time favorites by Charles P Pierce published in 2009 titled IDIOT AMERICA - How Stupidity Became a Virtue in the Land of the Free. Yeah, many Republicans actually believe that the earth is only 6000 years old, and they would love to have their Creationist fairy tales inserted into high school science textbooks! 

Yeah, uh huh! Creationist fairy tales! Like, you know, the one about how a man was made from a lump of dirt, and a woman made from one of his ribs, and how dirt-man and rib-lady were placed in a magical garden with a magical tree bearing magical fruit that they weren't allowed to eat, and how they were tempted into doing so by a talking snake with legs! Uh huh! It all makes perfect sense! Doesn't it?

YEAH RIGHT!

And of course, my all time favorite fairy tale from the BUY-BULL is the one about the Genesis flood, and how Noah and his three sons traveled all over the world and brought back polar bears from The North Pole, penguins from The South Pole, and kangaroos from Australia, and that they put saddles on dinosaurs and rode them back to the ark!

Gee! Like, that also makes sense! Eh?

Sorry Republicans! But The Flintstones is NOT a documentary!!!

And these bed-wetting ignoramuses want to run this country???  Oh! Parish the thought!

Hell, there's not a dry pair of pants among them!

I propose, that the Republican party ditch the noble elephant as their symbol and . . . . .

 

. . . adopt this one instead!!!

Yeah! I think this would be a more appropriate symbol for the Republican party, a dinosaur with a horse's saddle on it's back!

And of course, another book I would like to recommend to all my readers. 

   

This is one of the latest books published this year in 2012 written by Sean Faircloth titled ATTACK OF THE THEOCRATS! How The Religious Right Harms Us All And what We can Do About it - A Harrowing True Tale Told By Sean Faircloth.

I highly recommend these books to anyone who is concerned about the future of America and the future of science education in our public schools. 

OK, now back to the recent Republican National Convention . . .

I no longer have Cable TV anymore because Time Werner keeps raising the cost of the monthly bills, so I had unsubscribe to Cable TV because their programming is mostly crap! So now, I can put that money aside, and save up toward building a new computer. Yeah, I'm a computer geek, and I like to buy the parts and assemble the computer myself. It's much cheaper that way.

So, I had watched BOTH the Republican National Convention AND the Democratic National Convention on the Internet instead. 

Actually, I watched the Democratic National Convention at the Democratic Headquarters here in El Paso, Texas. I have been hanging out there every Tuesday and Thursday, making calls to encourage people to support Obama and getting out to vote.

Anyway . . . . .

The Democratic National Convention was by far more interesting, and more informative, because, they actually talked about the important issues, like, the economy, education, women's health care issues, civil rights and civil liberties, and also, climate change, etc. etc. Yes, global warming is a well established scientific fact.

On the other hand (or wing) the Republican National Convention was as boring as watching paint dry! I actually fell asleep through it. Then it got to be more fun to watch, when Clint Eastwood got up, and talked to an empty chair, pretending that it was Obama.

I just got to say, that was the highlight of the Republican National Convention! It reminded me of  a song by Niel Diamond "I Am I said" an old song from 1970. 

Yeah! Good ol' Clint Eastwood must be getting senile in his old age. OK, it's perfectly normal for little children to go around talking to an imaginary invisible person. I'm sure we've all done this when we were just little kids, however, children eventually outgrow that sort of thing. But, apparently, Clint Eastwood has not!

OK, I use to enjoy watching Clint Eastwood movies. Of course, I have always known he is a Republican and a conservative, but I didn't realize how far he was to the extreme right he is, and just what kind of  a right-wing wacko he really is, until he made a jackass of himself, talking to a chair! WOW! What a total fucking retard! I have lost all respect for him that I might have had,  and I will NEVER  ABSOLUTELY NEVER watch another Clint Eastwood movie ever again for as long as I live. 

Sorry Jimbo! But you blew it! Actually, not only do your blow, but YOU SUCK!!!

Yeah! Clint Eastwood is in his 80s and still wearing diapers!

Clint Eastwood is probably so delusional that he hears chairs talking back to him!

But the biggest MORON in the Republican party is the one who's running for President, Good ol' Nit wit Shit-for-brains- Mitt Romney himself. 

Yeah, he is of the Mormon religion, and so, like many Mormons, he probably wears magic underwear, and no doubt, he wears diapers underneath his magic underwear!

So, good ol' Mittens is BOTH a Mormon AND a MORON! Yeah! There is only one letter difference between the two! Just drop the second M.

Also, just like so many Christian, or rather, Christard Funny-mentalists, he doesn't know jack-shit about science. A prime example:

Recently, Mitt Romney's wife, Ann Romney, had attended a  $6 million dollar Beverly Hills fundraiser in California. While she was flying, on board her plane there was a short which resulted in an electrical fire, and the passenger compartment began filling with smoke. The plane had to make an emergency landing. Ann Romney and some other passengers were overcome by the smoke and they had to be treated in a hospital emergency room. OK, she's fine. She and her fellow passengers have recovered.

But after the incident, Mitt Romney had publicly commented that passenger jets should have windows that can be rolled down to let in fresh air.

Yeah, Mitt Romney said the following . . . . . 

"When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no — and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem."

YEAH RIGHT!

First of all, when you're flying at a cruising altitude of 32,000 to 35,000 feet, there is very little or almost no oxygen outside of the plane. Also, the cabin pressure inside the plane is much greater than the atmospheric pressure outside of the plane. So, even if you could open a window (which of course your can't) the air inside the plane would blow out through the open window.

Yeah, like . . . WWWWWOOOOOOOOOSHSHSHSHSHSHSHSHSH!!!

Also . . . if you happen to be sitting in a seat by the open window, and if you're stupid enough to not have your seat belt fastened, then you would get blown out through the window!!!

So, it would be, by by Romney! And good riddance! 

Of course, if the plane were to descend to a much lower altitude, like, perhaps 10,000 feet or down to about 7,000 feet, then opening a window would let in fresh air from outside. But that would not be wise either, because if you're flying at a cruising speed of over 500 miles per hour, a 500 mile an hour breeze coming in from an open window would cause stuff inside the cabin that is not secured down to go flying around inside the passenger compartment, and people would get clobbered by flying food trays and hand bags and what not!

So, there is a damn good reason why airplane windows are not made to roll down.

Oh! Yes indeed! Mitt Romney is a very innovative thinker!

I can hardly wait for him to come up with some more of his brilliant ideas!

Like . . . . .

 
  . . . . . Screen doors on submarines!

Or, perhaps . . . . .

 . . . . . Helicopter ejection seats!

Like, OH COME ON!!!

Not even Mitt Romney could possibly be that stupid!!!

Or could he?

Well, anyone who believes in wearing Mormon Magic Underwear can't be all that bright.

Hey Mitt Romney! Who needs the Secrete Service for protection when you have on your Mormon Magic Underwear? Eh?

Also, you need a special detergent to wash your magic underwear. 

And be sure to change your diaper before putting your clean magic underwear back on again. Yeah! There ya go, Baby!!!

And hey, Mitt! If you're a good little boy, you won't get sent to bed without supper!

Oh! And since my blog, THE BIGGEST FATTEST BLOG, is devoted to the love of food and gluttony, I should have something here concerning food.

Yeah! A nice heaping plate of Rice Moroni The Salt Lake City Treat!

Of course, if you're a Mormon, you can't drink alcohol, you can't smoke, and you can't even have coffee or anything with caffeine, so it must really suck to be a Mormon, and poor ol' Mitt Romney, not only can't drink, but he can't even think! That's because his a moron!

And, he also believes in wearing magic underwear because he believes it will protect him from knives and guns. YEAH RIGHT!!!

Uh huh! Like, we know! We know!

Sorry Mitt Romney, but again . . . . .
 

 

YOU FAIL!!!

Of course, when it comes to absolute moronic stupidity and major fuck-tardery, Mitt Romney is only just the tip of the ice burg.

And speaking of ice burgs . . . . .

This year, 2012 is the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic back in the year 1912 when the ship struck an ice burg.

  

And we all better hope like Hell that the Republicans do not win the 2012 Presidential Election, because, if that happens, the USA will surely go down in 2012 just like the Titanic went down in 1912.

Yeah! As I have said . . . when it comes to retardary, Mit Romney is only the tip of the ice burg.

I have been keeping a score card of all the stupid comments publicly made by Republican candidates all through out 2011 and 2012 and it's getting to where it's really not funny anymore.

For example:

 Michele Bachmann has said the black families were better off under slavery.

"A child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA's first African-American President."

YEAH RIGHT!!!

The fact is, that black families were not better off under slavery. Quite often, black families were broken up, husbands and wives separated, children taken away from parents, brothers and sisters separated, all sold off to different plantations, never seeing each other ever again.

Also, according to some Republicans, people who are on disability, poor people, families on food stamps and senior citizens are just stray dogs and scavenging raccoons, and according to former President Bush, I'm not a citizen of the USA because I'm not a christian.

Yeah! Sound really familiar, just like Mitt Romney's more recent comments he made about 47% percent of all Americans.

"My job is not to worry about the 47 percent of people who don't pay income taxes. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives."

Mitt Romney does not know what the Hell he's talking about.

True, retired people on Social Security do not pay income taxes on their pension checks, but when they were working, they paid income taxes, and a certain amount was deducted from their pay checks which goes into Social Security, so, these retirees had paid into the system.

Also, college students don't have to pay income taxes. The 47% percent that Mitt Romney has been referring to are not freeloaders shirking their responsibilities. No, many of them re students, teachers, fire fighters, cops, etc. etc. middle income families struggling to make ends meet.

Oh! And there some more really good stuff.

Yeah, and then there was another fuck-tard, Foster Friess, who was campaigning for Rick Santorum.  

Foster Friess has said the following . . . . .

"On this contraceptive thing, my gosh, it’s so inexpensive. You know, back in my days, they used Bayer Aspirin for contraceptives. The gals put it between their knees and it wasn’t that costly." 

And of course, good ol' Rick The Prick Santorum believes that a college education is indoctrination.

"I understand why Barack Obama wants to send every kid to college, because of their indoctrination mills, absolutely. The indoctrination that is going on at the university level is a harm to our country."

So, Rick The Prick thinks a college education is indoctrination! Eh?

WHAT??? You mean, as opposed to religious indoctrination???

Yeah, uh huh! Students perusing a science degree is somehow harmful to America!

YEAH RIGHT!!!

And here in the state of Texas, we have another prick named Rick, good ol' Governor Good Hair Rick Perry of Texas.

He's another right-wing Christard Funny-mentalist who is opposed to science and the scientific method.

Allow me to introduce you to Governor Rick Perry of Texas.

Governor Rick Perry once allowed an innocent man to be executed, despite the fact that DNA evidence proved, that the death row inmate was not present at the crime scene. But Rick Perry rejects science, especially DNA evidence, because DNA also proves EVOLUTION!!!

Here in Texas, lethal injection is used. The inmate is strapped down to the gurney and the arms are strapped down to the armrests that extend straight out at the sides, and a needle is inserted into each arm, with one needle administrating a saline solution, while the needle in the other arm administers the lethal drug.

 

Governor Rick Perry loves it when they use the gurney to administer lethal injections to death row inmates. That's because, with the armrests extended out to the sides, it looks like a cross!!!

Glory halleluiah! Amen!

I could go on and on and on and on and on about how stupid and moronic the Republican party has become. 

Oh! Here's another really good one!

Some Republicans are so stucking fupid, Whoops! I mean, so fucking stupid that they can't tell the difference between a woman and a female duck!!!

Yeah! That's right! Some Republicans, like Todd Akin, can not tell the difference between a woman and a female duck!

This is concerning  some moronic comment that Todd Akin said about rape, the women do not get pregnant from rape.

In a recent interview, in which the Republican Senate candidate from Missouri, Todd Akin, had admitted that he believes abortion should be illegal, even in cases of rape, because . . . . . 

"if it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down."  

In another words Ladies . . .  if you say you got pregnant after being raped, you’re probably lying about the rape part! Yeah, at least according to Todd Akin.

But, he is wrong about the science concerning rape.

The scientific facts are far from being on Akin’s side. While it may be true that female ducks have evolved in such a way that they now have a biological anti-pregnancy response to forced sex, human beings most definitely have not. 

As the Washington Post’s Sarah Kliff notes, many scientific studies have proven that the you-only-conceive-if-aroused theory is complete bunk. In fact, one study from 2003 even showed that rape victims may be more likely to get pregnant than individuals on the whole.

So, either Todd Akin does not know the difference between a woman and a female duck, or else, he thinks that a woman has a duck's vagina! 

For more information on female ducks, and how they have evolved a protective mechanism that prevents the eggs from being fertilized in the event of forced sex from the male, check out the following article from Scientific American.

  

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN - An evolutionary battle against unwanted fertilization

OK, ya stupid Republicans!

Which one is the woman, and which one is the duck?

About 99 out of 100 republicans failed this simple test!

Well, I could go on and on about how stupid the Republican party has become.

But, it has not always been this way. There was once a time when the Republican party was a great institution. It was the party of Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S Grant.

Back then, the old Republican party was the progressive party that looked forward to the future. It was the party that abolished slavery.

If I have been living back in the mid to late 1800s, then I would have been proud to have been a Republican! I'm so grateful that The North won the civil war. 

The greatest Republican Presidents that America ever had were Abraham Lincoln and General Ulysses S Grant who later on was elected President Ulysses S Grant.

Of course, as President, he administration was rocked by some political scandals, but it was because President Grant had trusted the wrong people. A president is only as good as the people he works with, and if his administration is not fully co-operative then he can't do his job.

Now, I have found out some really cool things about Ulysses S Grant than I had never known before until recently, because, very little is mentioned of this of this in most school history textbooks, and I didn'k know about this, until I read about in in an on line NEWS article from AlterNet, to which I am subscriped.

Here is a link to said article, titled:

Five People Who Bravely Fought Christian Takeover of America

http://www.alternet.org/belief/5-people-who-bravely-fought-christian-takeover-america

It mentions five people who stood up and fought against past attempts against a Christian Fundamentalist take-over of America. But I'll only quote a part of the article, because one of those five brave people was Ulysses S Grant, and the reason why, is because of a speech the Ulysses S Grant had given on September 30,1875 about 137 years ago, and September 30 happens to be on my birthday!!!

========================================

Ulysses S. Grant: U.S. Grant is best known for being a hard fighting (and hard drinking) Civil War general and later a scandal-plagued president. His advocacy of church-state separation is less well known.

Grant had his share of problems during his presidency, but on the issue of church-state separation he showed true leadership. Sadly, this tends to get overlooked today.

During Grant’s presidency, the concept of tax-supported public education began to slowly spread across the nation. More and more states were adopting laws establishing public schools and even mandating attendance. But there was a problem: People could not agree on what role religion should play in the schools.

In 1844, there were riots in Philadelphia between Catholics and Protestants over what version of the Bible would be read in schools. Tensions simmered for years. Protestants insisted that since they were the majority in the country, the schools should reflect their theology. Catholics fumed that their rights were being violated and proposed that the federal government give them money to start their own schools that would inculcate Catholicism.

Grant had a better idea: No tax money for religious schools and no religious worship in the public schools. Keeping public schools secular, Grant proposed, would be in the best interests of the nation.

On Sept. 30, 1875, Grant addressed a gathering of former Union soldiers. He could have played it safe and offered some reminisces about the war. Instead, he decided to address the school issue.

“Let us all labor to add all needful guarantees for the security of free thought, free speech, a free press, pure morals, unfettered religious sentiments, and of equal rights and privileges to all men irrespective of nationality, color or religion,” Grant said. “Encourage free schools, and resolve that not one dollar, appropriated for their support, shall be appropriated to the support of any sectarian schools. Resolve that neither the state nor nation, nor both combined, shall support institutions of learning other than those sufficient to afford to every child growing up in the land the opportunity of a good common school education, unmixed with sectarian, pagan, or atheistical dogmas. Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private school, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate. With these safeguards, I believe the battles which created the Army of the Tennessee will not have been fought in vain.”

Grant was ahead of his time. While some state courts adopted his vision and struck down laws mandating school prayer in the latter half of the 19th century, the U.S. Supreme Court did not declare official school prayer a violation of the First Amendment until 1962.
 
=======================================

Yeah, Ulysses S Grant was very well known for drinking a lot of Whiskey and smoking cigars. 

But what isn't generally well know is his support for public school education. It's a damn shame that most of our school history textbooks don't mention more of this.  

So, Ulysses S Grant was a man way ahead of his time!

Yes, here are two of the greatest Republicans in our entire history.

President Abraham Lincoln and General, later to be Elected, President Ulysses S Grant, or two greatest Republicans in American history.

So, President Ulysses S Grant support public education, that is, public secular education, therefore, he supported science and math education, unlike today's Republican retards who wish to do away with science education, and instead, teach Creationist fairy tales!

If Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S Grant were alive today, they would be shocked and appalled by what has become of the Republican party! No doubt, Ulysses S Gran would call them all fucking retards!

Anyway . . . . .

After reading more about Ulysses S Grant, and about the speech he had given on September 30,1875 to retired Northern Civil War veterans concerning public school education, then, I feel that my birthday being on September 30 is kind of special. 

I have come across even more articles after doing a Google search about Ulysses S Grant and his speech on September 30,1875 which was 137 years ago.

Now, that's why I feel that my birthday very special to me.

 
And so, I celebrated my birthday by having a straight double-shot of whiskey and I smoked a cigar.

That is what I will do from now on when it is my birthday.
 

Yes, from or on, I shall raise a glass with a straight double-shot of whiskey and smoke a cigar to honor Ulysses S Grant.

Salute!
