It is Time for a Rant, Thank you Randy Andy Weiner Dog

And thank you General Honore for gifting us the term "Stuck On Stupid". As we all know how much I love cliches I am in hog heaven with this one. Hillary's "hard dog to keep on the porch", Bill, seems to be the God Parent of this dickwad. And all weiner jokes aside, this asshole puts the cherry on the sundae. He seems to think he is all that and a bag of chips too, not plain, with BBQ. Oh stop me, this is too fucking easy.

Seriously, this ass-wipe is asking for a leave of absence and seeking treatment. Where in the hell do you get treatment for being an asshole. I do not buy into the male bullshit sex addiction claim, nor do I believe in the treatment for such a "Stupid" condition. How come all the men go for treatment and all the women are either whores and sluts or put in prison? "My name is Wee Willie Wanker and I am an asshole". Please.

And just exactly who, or is it whom, can grant "a leave" from the Congress. Isn't that scoundrel elected by his constituents? Are they holding a special "can the sleaze-ball take a time-out" election or is Nancy Pelosi "look at my pearls, not my neck" going to make this decision. I do not understand how this works. If you are elected by the people, to serve the people, how do you get to take time off for "How to not be an Asshole " classes? How long does it take to teach a slimeball not to send pictures of himself  "all puffed up" on the Internet? If you are so stuck on stupid that you did not think you would get caught, well isn't that kinda like getting really low SAT scores and just knowing you are community college material? Do you really need a rejection from Harvard with those scores?

And I know this is a sensitive subject to interject into this post but lets compare it to Gabby Giffords. Did she ask to be shot? No. Was she shot on the job? Yes. Should she get paid medical and Workman's Comp? Yes. Does someone need to be doing her job? Who might that be? If it is not the person elected to that job where is it written who does her job? If no one needs to be doing her job, should we eliminate her job? We are talking about the US government here, not Wall Street.

Just asking because I don't know the answers.

And since I am on a roll,

Why is no one bitching that as soon as Jennifer Granholm got the chance she took a job in California? Not saying she is not smart, just saying she left. Is there a chance the free tuition for residents was part of her decision?

Why is no one telling Maria Shriver it is a family tradition?

Why is so much time, effort and money being spent on Sarah Palin's email and I have seen nothing of interest?

Is the Bachelorette stupid or is she drunk? Did Emily really give her ring back? Is Piers really still on TV? Is Anderson friends with Sanjay Gupta, and if so why are they  not travelling somewhere together, say to Joplin to see the new fungus?

Too many questions and so few answers.

I am started to become fedded up

This is one of my favorite French phrases. It was taught to me by my boss. My French counterparts sent him an email expressing that thought about me. Moi, I said. Of course I let him know I was so far beyond fedded up that hanging those Frenchies from their toes at Ford would not even begin to help me feel better, but anyway, I am feeling fedded up again.

China is fucking with the Internet again in some vain attempt to make sure that no one can order dinner from the local market. We are talking about millions of people who cannot make a decision under any circumstances now being deprived of what?  It is not like they can even figure out how to buy train tickets. They cannot. Repeated requests to both experts and regular travelers will be get a response of  "no, you cannot do that".  It is not possible to buy first class, it is not possible to pick a train, it is not possible to pick your seat. These are the people that are going to overtake the world, the same people who cannot bring you a glass of ice water in a "Western" hotel. Do not even get me started again on the the no meat beef hamburger.

That leaves me with CNN International. And Anderson, Piers and Obama. To borrow a phrase from that wacko bitch in Oklahoma, Help Me Rhonda. Yes, I have been reduced to so few entertainment resources I have read The Pioneer Woman Blog.  And the Anti-blog. That is why I drink. These people are fucked up.

Why is Anderson on global television in a purple wig when he was only a lad? Why is Piers interviewing Chelsea Handler with a martini she refuses to drink? Why is Obama fund-raising in Texas not far from the devastating fires while not mentioning the destruction? After he, Obama, flew over the over flowing banks of the Mississippi while not even looking out the window of Air Force One. I liked Harrison Ford on Air Force One better. I wish I had a copy of that movie here in the boondocks of hell.

And I hate to keep going back to Anderson but when did he get so fucking weird. He was showing another asshole, I can't recall his name, and he was putting Anderson's picture on a chart with peanut butter. I am serious, the peanut butter was the attachment feature.

So now I am wondering how long I can stay in this hell hole without losing my mind. I can do about 3 days without the NYT crossword and then I get nasty.

Never again will I go out of my way to see fireworks

Standing on the balcony last night was unbelievable. At times it felt like I could touch the fireworks. There were a couple times I ducked and once I wiped my face looking for ash. There was not one inch of space in the Shanghai skyline that was not full of fireworks. It was like every fireworks show in the US showed up at once and set up shop one block from each other. I saw the fireworks once on the Detroit river (while on a boat) during the Freedom Festival, it ain't nuttin-as they say in Philly-compared to the light show last night. And these people who can't afford water in their homes pay for this. WTF.

Today is New Year's Day so we are having Duck Confit we bought earlier this week and will cook if we don't kill each other before dinner. And use the excess duck fat to fry the potatoes and make a salad. Yumm.

Weather is mild enough to have the balcony door open and walk out and look at the world. Absence of cars and people is weird. Then you hear to noises and see the huge puffs of smoke from the firecrackers that just lay on the ground and make noise.

Egypt is getting really scary and it appears no one has a plan, including Anderson Cooper. When you try to beat up Anderson you do not have a plan. Anderson, you can't just go anywhere and be safe, you are not the scud stud. Remember him? And then when we saw him in real life-it was eeew.

And when people are gathering in the streets saying pretty much they hate your ass and your response I won't run for re-election, well I want to know when they are going to start selling that tea in the market place.

And speaking of wacko shit, WTF is up with Cairns, Australia pronounced as CANS, excuse, me, should this not be pronounced CARNES. Cans? What happened to the i and the r. That is like Brett Favre. What is wrong with the world.

Well I can't fix it all today.

I usually don't do politics, but really

Okay, CNN International is not the show guys usually see. And you do have other channels to watch. Fie on you. However, I do not have other channels and I am fedded up. To use a French phrase.

I am tired of stories of 11 year old girls sold into marriage. Something needs to be done here. Either fix it or prove it wrong. Since it seems to be happening in all the countries we have a presence in or support with huge tax dollars, this should not be real hard.

I am tired of politicians that are accused of breaking the law and that is where the story ends. Did it happen or not? Are you all lazy or complacent?

I am tired of stories on gay people or any other minority committing suicide, slayed at the hands of viscious killers, or being "identified" for their own good, while the "killers" get a pass for whatever reason the media uses-just so they can get the story. If you can dog the victims you can dog the perps.

I am tired of poor people. Not really poor people, you will never see really poor people on CNN, only the phony poor people. Poor people do not have hair and nail services available to them. Nor do they have cars, homes, and sidewalks. The really poor people are being helped by Oprah and Bill Gates and they do not appear on television. Unless they are getting a shot for whatever disease they are going to catch in the near future, for another TV spot.

And I am tired of Jimmy Carter, I know he is sick and in the hospital and all, but I was tired of him in the 70's. He was depressing then and now he is just a whiner. Get over it. No one liked you then and less people like you now. And the reports of your houses falling apart are rampant. And if that is not true why is there not a Habitat person out there refuting all these stories on CNN? And picking on Teddy Kennedy? I did not like Teddy and I would not pick on the dead when I had plenty of time to point this shit out when he was alive.

David Vitter in a diaper with a madam, Mike Cox won't fire the guy that works for him that is harrassing a guy at U of M, and who in the city of Detroit is having sex with whom this week?

Something needs to be done with all this information, I suggest the garbage pail, and people need to start discussing and doing something about the things that really have an impact on their lives. And they need to force the media to respond. I for one will be telling Anderson Cooper that he needs to review his past reporting and tell me if he is happy with his current stories. Then I will decide if no TV is better than shitty TV.
