I’m at my Uncle’s again. Hurray! So anyway, nothing new to report just yet. But stay tuned.

Gore compares himself to Winston Churchill-What an A-hole
UPDATE: Times seems to be messing with the article-the story is also being talked about here.
I consider myself an American Churchillian. So this pisses me off. Gore is making gobs of money off of a scam that everyone in the political establishment just nods at. Churchill in no way profited from his warnings, and it really was the case that no one listened to him. If Winston were alive to today, he’d sock Gore so hard he’d stay plastered.

Notice anything different?
I have neither time nor the energy to manage a blog’s comments, it turns out. Since I still enjoy writing about this stuff, I’ll continue. I want to apologize to those readers who like to comment here, but I can’t allow comments anymore-it’s just to much work and some attempted commenters have been rude. I’ve also discovered that when digging through the filter, I have a hard time distinguishing legitimate comments from clever spam. I did and still do enjoy fruitful discussions with some of you, but I think it’s best that be done on other blogs now. (By the way Andy, I can’t comment on your blog anymore either
–
) If you really must contact me, I’m putting an email account of mine on the About page. I very rarely check said account at the moment, but I’ll try and check more frequently if many deem it important. But don’t swamp me with “Bring back the comments!” I’ve kinda made up my mind.

Generalissimo Electric…
I’m gonna juxtapose a couple of quotes, which I found via the website Political Capitalism:
“Capitalism’s biggest political enemies are not the firebrand trade unionists spewing vitriol against the system but the executives in pin-striped suits extolling the virtues of competitive markets with every breath while attempting to extinguish them with every action.”
Raghuram Rajan and Luigi Zingales, Saving Capitalism from the Capitalists. New York: Crown Business, 2003, p. 276.
“The interaction between government and business will change forever. In a reset economy, the government will be a regulator; and also an industry policy champion, a financier, and a key partner.”General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt, Letter to Shareholders, GE 2008 Annual Report
Now some notes. General Electric owns NBC, and MSNBC, the infamously liberal “news” network. NBC does “green week” where they celebrate going “green”. NBC-Universal owns the SciFi and Nickelodeon networks, whereby nerds and children are similarly indoctrinated with environmental mumbo jumbo. None of this would be particularlly sinister, except that GE is highly involved in the politics surrounding energy policy and Klimacht, and of course are heavily invested in renewables. In fact, GE Wind was once Enron Wind, and we know how well that worked out (fortunately, in a way). Jeff Immelt is, arguably, the Administration’s largest ally in the energy industry. They lobbied for incandescents to be banned…naturally they produce and sell compact flourescents and stand to benefit massively from such chicanery. GE is the epitome of the political capitalist company, and a great friend to liberal fascists such as the Administration, which similarly believes in Immelt’s corporatist ideology (corporatism, was, in fact, invented (at least the term, which he used to describe his view of the role of government in business) by Mussolini, although the Progressives pioneered it-now we are full circle, America is perfecting this system under Obama…They will “bury the putrid corpse of liberty” in Benito’s words.

The Fix is in…
Eight SOB Republicans vote for Capn’Trade. Dumbasses.
Who are these people? I want to see them eviscerated.
…Er, verbally and politically of course.
EDIT: I have a humble suggestion: Find out who the 8 GOP were. If you live in their district, please personally challenge them in the next election they are up for. WE NEED TO TAKE THEM DOWN. I will support you whole-heartedly.
EDIT: Got it, here are the GOP who have betrayed us all:
- Bono Mack
- Castle
- Kirk
- Lance
- LoBiondo
- McHugh
- Reichert
- Smith (NJ)
The important thing right now: Double-no-TRIPLE your efforts to defeat this thing in the Senate!
