jib-jab
  ToTehEastSide, Jul 06 2009

ha I signed in here with an intent to make a quick entry and then got sidetracked and forgot to do my original intent..
In talking with someone about the hilarity of that jibjab video I posted in the coffin thread, I was introduced to another one by the same people. Well to me, even tho it's a little late, this vid was so great that I was originally going to bump the coffin thread with it but now I figure it's better to just let a thread with obviously no real interest here die
so since I sometimes make my blogs for my own beneficial reasons inasmuch if not more than for yours, I will post this video here
take care all

[edit]
before you watch this know this video was made during the campaigning times of last year - cheers

The Bonus Army
  ToTehEastSide, Jul 02 2009

Does anyone here remember learning in school about the March of the Bonus Army in 1932? If so please let me know.
Here is a youtube video on it, it is in 3 parts


+ Show Spoiler +

Personally I can't recall even any mention of this and I'm pretty sure I would remember something like this. A shame if you ask me.
I am reminded of Rage Against the Machine

Who controls the past now, controls the future
Who controls the present now, controls the past
Who controls the past now ,controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify

Pokerwise, June '09 overall was a very interesting month to say the least. Started out bad but ended really good. I now play on both Stars and FTP and I got hands in everyday in June except for 3. I am very happy with the overall results.


RAWR

I am debating how I am going to go about July '09 pokerwise tho. For a few different reasons, I am conjuring up and debating doing a small challenge to myself. Basically to keep things interesting and the need of the grind sharp I am envisioning me cashing out and starting over on one of the sites (most likely Stars) and grinding and blogging about my overall monthly grind. There is a part of me that would like to blog more about poker this month but another part of me that says there is no need to tack yet another thing onto my list so I'm not sure yet.

I have a pretty packed 4th tho so I do not think I am going to start getting tons of hands in until around the 7th. I'll mule it over until then. It pretty much revolves around the cashout.
That's it for now
peace~

  ToTehEastSide, Jun 22 2009

I'm probably to tired to really say anything worthwhile atm so here's some babble
This is this weeks Texas Straight Talk posted every Monday by Ron Paul and I'm posting it because this week's theme falls right into line of my recent thoughts:
Where did all those Bush foreign-policy hating BRING-THE-TROOPS-HOME people go??
The answer?! "Hey my guy won so I don't care"
So sick
WE NEED YOU COME BACK!!





International Bailout Brings Us Closer to Economic Collapse


audio





Last week Congress passed the war supplemental appropriations bill. In an affront to all those who thought they voted for a peace candidate, the current president will be sending another $106 billion we don’t have to continue the bloodshed in Afghanistan and Iraq, without a hint of a plan to bring our troops home.

Many of my colleagues who voted with me as I opposed every war supplemental request under the previous administration seem to have changed their tune. I maintain that a vote to fund the war is a vote in favor of the war. Congress exercises its constitutional prerogatives through the power of the purse, and as long as Congress continues to enable these dangerous interventions abroad, there is no end in sight, that is until we face total economic collapse.

From their spending habits, an economic collapse seems to be the goal of Congress and this administration. Washington spends with impunity domestically, bailing out and nationalizing everything they can get their hands on, and the foreign aid and IMF funding in this bill can rightly be called an international bailout!

As Americans struggle through the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, this emergency supplemental appropriations bill sends $660 million to Gaza, $555 million to Israel, $310 million to Egypt, $300 million to Jordan, and $420 million to Mexico. Some $889 million will be sent to the United Nations for so-called “peacekeeping” missions. Almost one billion dollars will be sent overseas to address the global financial crisis outside our borders. Nearly $8 billion will be spent to address a “potential pandemic flu” which could result in mandatory vaccinations for no discernable reason other than to enrich the Pharmaceutical companies that make the vaccine.

Perhaps most outrageous is the $108 billion loan guarantee to the International Monetary Fund. These new loan guarantees will allow that destructive organization to continue spending taxpayer money to prop up corrupt leaders and promote harmful economic policies overseas.

Not only does sending American taxpayer money to the IMF hurt citizens here, evidence shows that it even hurts those it pretends to help. Along with IMF loans comes IMF required policy changes, called Structural Adjustment Programs, which amount to forced Keynesianism. This is the very fantasy-infused economic model that has brought our own country to its knees, and IMF loans act as the Trojan Horse to inflict it on others. Perhaps most troubling is the fact that leaders in recipient nations tend to become more concerned with the wishes of international elites than the wishes and needs of their own people. Argentina and Kenya are just two examples of countries that followed IMF mandates right off a cliff. The IMF frequently recommends currency devaluation to poorer nations, which has wiped out the already impoverished over and over. There is also a long list of brutal dictators the IMF happily supported and propped up with loans that left their oppressed populace in staggering amounts of debt with no economic progress to show for it.

We are buying nothing but evil and global oppression by sending your taxdollars to the IMF. Not to mention there is no Constitutional authority to do so. Our continued presence in Iraq and Afghanistan does not make us safer at home, but in fact undermines our national security. I vehemently opposed this Supplemental Appropriations Bill and was dismayed to see it pass so easily.

Not afraid of you
  ToTehEastSide, Jun 20 2009

A little background. The House of Representatives voted on a resolution in support of the Iranian dissidents and condemning the ruling government. There was 235 Democrats and 171 Republicans that voted. The final vote was 405-1.
Can you guess who the one politician to oppose the resolution was?
+ Show Spoiler +



Here's his opposing statement:

"I rise in reluctant opposition to H Res 560, which condemns the Iranian government for its recent actions during the unrest in that country. While I never condone violence, much less the violence that governments are only too willing to mete out to their own citizens, I am always very cautious about “condemning” the actions of governments overseas. As an elected member of the United States House of Representatives, I have always questioned our constitutional authority to sit in judgment of the actions of foreign governments of which we are not representatives. I have always hesitated when my colleagues rush to pronounce final judgment on events thousands of miles away about which we know very little. And we know very little beyond limited press reports about what is happening in Iran.

Of course I do not support attempts by foreign governments to suppress the democratic aspirations of their people, but when is the last time we condemned Saudi Arabia or Egypt or the many other countries where unlike in Iran there is no opportunity to exercise any substantial vote on political leadership? It seems our criticism is selective and applied when there are political points to be made. I have admired President Obama’s cautious approach to the situation in Iran and I would have preferred that we in the House had acted similarly.

I adhere to the foreign policy of our Founders, who advised that we not interfere in the internal affairs of countries overseas. I believe that is the best policy for the United States, for our national security and for our prosperity. I urge my colleagues to reject this and all similar meddling resolutions."

Whats left of rights and right of lefts?
  ToTehEastSide, Jun 15 2009

It feels there should be a totally hilarious answer to my title and I wish I could think of one but I just woke so I'm slow and can't think of anything perfectly for it yet. The two fitting answers I have for ya are...

not much
and
just us independents

(and the two answers don't have to answer necessarily respectively and suffice as to why I see and feel the need to speak up before we all get steamrolled hard)

Moving right along, I'm going to make this blog of 3 categories on issues that I believe to be very important in our nation today and post three vids of where I stand in them.
As short and sweet as possible... the three issues I think are highly important are:


Here are vids I think are worth watching on the subjects:


  • For the issue of the Fed and need for transparency


  • In foreign Policy and direction of the war


  • Health care


This is where I am at on these three issues. As you can see, for 2 of the 3 I used voices from the left to express my POV on what I think is right or needed
Hopefully this will at least somewhat clear you hard lefties of future talk in that common assumption of "my" bias (or ppl like me) which is actually in fact your own. It is becoming redundant. Just because I do not share your views does not mean I am whatever is your 100% enemy. Please try to see that.

There are many many other issues of things and the correct answer requires seeing a bigger picture than just left right. Left and right are meant as a guide to understanding and don't really matter so much until you lean so hard one way in your views you no longer see past your own labels of things. Therein lies an increasing majority problem.
I can see where you are coming from, but can you see me? or others?
If we don't wake up soon to this respect we will very much regret it as a nation. I really hope I'm not pulling on the reigns to late. I don't believe I am.

Thanks for your time in reading this. I hope it was worthwhile.
Peace

Network
  ToTehEastSide, Jun 10 2009

As I get older I find myself becoming more and more of a movie critic. Network, a movie made in 1976, is a great movie that I just recently heard of and watched. I highly recommend it to anyone that hasn't seen it. The fact that I'm making this blog about it is obv proof enough that in my eyes it is a solid and worth watching movie.
What is so superbly awesome about this movie is that even tho it is an older movie, as time goes on, "Network" seems to become so obviously more applicable and pertinent to things/events of today it's just amazing. This movie imo is a great simple first step into understanding what the hell is going on.
Anyone that thinks or says we have "evolved" since the founding of this country or says that the battles and issues that are being fought today are something new and advanced either have absolutely zero clue themselves or are telling you this because they want you to continue having no clue of your own and want to get your eye & emotion off of what is important.
There are always these keywords you should learn and remember to apply or try to find in a debate. Balance and principles. Learn those for yourselves and you will see things haven't really changed at all.

Anyhow, I don't usually post info about what happened in a movie nor do I like seeing clips of the movie I want to watch before I actually watch it. I realize however this isn't always the case for everyone and me posting this youtube clip doesn't force u to play it while watching this vid might actually perk your interest alot more than my babbling so...
Here is what I think is a very good clip to use as a trailer for the movie.

1up+ for MSM
  ToTehEastSide, May 23 2009

movin right along....ObamaObamaObamaAAhmmmmrmm
Tons of things have happened since I was last here. But for the time and energy I have I will stick with something current that everyone is probably at least somewhat familiar with and where I don't have to say that much




"The power of the Executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist."

-Winston Churchill


I mean other than obvious props to Maddow here, what more is there really to say...
How fitting a political process this is to go alongside a preemptive war on "terror"?
Wake up?
Oh, ha. That reminds me, even tho this is apparently old, I'm slow and actually just saw this for the first time recently. A commercial aired by MTV


Remember, we are all in this together
Watch what happens when the government turns homeland security on full force.
That's just dumb irrational thinking tho right? Let's just turn the other cheek nomnomnom
cheers I'm out
peace

"Once a doctrine, however irrational, has gained power in a society, millions of people will believe it rather than feel ostracised and isolated." -Erich Fromm
