Fetus Freaks and Gun Nuts Stalk Little Girls for Clicks and Giggles

CLICK ME !
You think this is going to be satire, right? Wrong.

A conservative group is pushing Cookie Cott 2014. They have a fancy logo and everything:





What is the Girl Scout's crime that engendered the cookie boycott? Here is a list of crimes and a policy statement they are working with:
MISSOURI RIGHT TO LIFE POLICY STATEMENT
GIRL SCOUTS USA
Because Girl Scouts USA promotes, both directly and indirectly through other organizations, policies and behaviors clearly contradictory to the goals and purposes of Missouri Right to Life, Missouri Right to Life urges citizens to consider carefully whether to participate in Girl Scouts or support them in any way.
Now if you think "stalk" is too strong, you want to read THIS: 
For four consecutive Saturdays, protesters have come to Teabearies, which hosts parties for girls ages 3 to 12, carrying graphic pictures and placards reading, "Teabearies supports baby killers."
The connection? In addition to running Teabearies, a children's birthday party place in this southern Illinois town 40 miles east of St. Louis, Dudek runs the front desk and serves as an administrative assistant at Hope Clinic for Women in nearby Granite City, which performs abortions.
 "They were intimidating young girls with graphic posters of aborted fetuses and statements of murder, and they were utilizing the intimidation of these girls as a way to coerce the owner to quit her job at the clinic," said Mark Levy, Dudek's lawyer. 
During the hearing, one mother tearfully described taking her 7-year-old daughter for a birthday party at Teabearies on Jan. 19, when, according to Dudek, 17 protesters showed up and shouted at arriving tearoom customers. 
Gail Pickett of Highland had adopted the little girl last year; this was her first birthday party with her adoptive family. "She was scared; the pictures scared her," Pickett said. "And we had to usher her through the back door to her own birthday party." Pickett, a Girl Scout leader, said she has canceled her plans to take some scouts to Teabearies, where they can earn a badge on manners. "I cannot subject my Girl Scouts to this kind of thing," she said.
What this viral photograph proves to me is this: If gun nuts are stupid enough to think this is good publicity, they are too stupid to own guns. The lady gun nut in the photo and Fox News says it is all a misunderstanding. Her name is Kathy Perkins. Here is her organizations's facebook page. 

Look at the reflections in the windows of the other gun nuts standing guard in case the Girl Scouts get jiggly.


Like they say at JuanitaJean's: 
So the way I figure it, we liberals are under a sacred obligation to buy some Girl Scout Cookies! Oh hell, go wild, buy three or twenty boxes. Use them to feed your campaign block walkers at your local Democratic headquarters.

Asshats on Parade - Shhh. Do not interrupt this man.

The men of the Republican party believe that women and women alone are to be held responsible for the fact that humans have sex. Why else would they be coming for our birth control?

Republicans lost women by 10 points last election nationally. Next election it will be by 20 points. Women have not forgotten: The Republican Rape Advisory Chart.

The irony is that Huckabee was for no copay contraception before he was against it.


Uncle Sugar, Huckabee? Nothing like having a preacher suggesting women are whores. Better than Mourdock's "God wills rape pregnancy" for getting those votes. Glory Hallellujah.

Oh proceed, please proceed in this vein, SuckABee. I wanting you to do it. I am waiting for you to do it. I am so willing for you to do it.

Can we start calling Putin "Sochi Minh?" - Nick Vanocur



AssHats on Parade - Punch in the Mouth Edition - Rep. Joe Fisher of Kentucky



State Rep. Joe Fischer (R) attached an amendment banning abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy to a bill expanding domestic violence protections for dating couples, Louisville radio station WFPL reported Tuesday.

"The most brutal form of domestic violence is the violence against unborn children," Fischer told WFPL. "And, this particular bill would prohibit abortions after the fetus feels pain, which is 20 weeks and older." - by Catherine Thompson, Talking Points Memo 
Joe Fisher of Kentucky
Take a look at this guy, Joseph Fisher. Here he is on the right. A staunch Roman Catholic. Look closely. Would you buy a used car from this man? 
Fisher is an abuser himself. What do abusive men do? Control. Control is what abusive men are all about.
Controlling behaviour is often disguised or excused as concern. Concern for your safety, your emotional or mental health, the need to use your time well, or to make sensible decisions.
Homicide is the second most common cause of death for pregnant women and women who have recently given birth. Homicide is the ultimate control.

Abusive men poke holes in your diapharagm or the condom so you will get pregnant and they can control you.

If an abusive man does not want you to be pregnant, they slip abortifacients in your coffee or kick you in the stomach. Or beat you to death. Control.

What does baggerpuke Joe Fischer want to do to women in his state? Control them. He is an AssHat Abuser. I rest my case.

I just have one question: So it is okay to kill babies if they are going to kill their Mother? Do we have to wait to abort a dying baayyyy beeee until it does kill its Mother? Innocent until proven guilty, right? Bad baby deserves it, right? Moron. 


Some remarks by the Artist and links to her work taken from her website:
"Patriarchy is destructive to society, it's a form of violence against women, and there is no place for it in contemporary culture. We have to call it out when it happens.

I decided it was time for some slut positivity and some major ass kicking of these conservative, woman-hating men.

Smoke House Sausage and Sauerkraut


I was fond of Smokies sausages when I was a child. It was the lunch treat my Polish Mother, the Polka Queen, brought home every Saturday from the supermarket. They disappeared for a bit but Oscar Mayer recently started making them again.

If you are fond of traditional smokehouse flavor and are food additive conscious, I recommend Czerw's Kielbasy and Polish Provisions. Their home made products contain no by-products, artificial color, fillers, or added water.

Shop early in the week, especially on Easter. You will find that lines of people go around the block on Easter. Poles take Easter seriously. 

I buy barrel Sauerkraut, smoked Cajun Kielbasa which my children love, and Kabanosy, a sort of hot Polish Slim Jim. We have lots of assimilation in Foody Nation Philadelphia. You can get directions, history of the shop, and a list of their products at their website.

 Jan Czerw, Grandfather of the current owners, immigrated from Mislsi, Poland. In 1938, Jan Czerw converted a horse stable into a shop. He built the brick ovens meat is smoked in himself. Czerw's Kielbasa still stands in that original spot, using the same brick ovens built almost 70 years ago. For the Czerws, traditon and quality are standard.

Wesolych Swiat i dobre jedzenie!
Note: There are about 600,000 Folks in Philadelphia who think of themselves as Polish. All those good Folks like to eat good Polish Food. I am going to tell you where I find it. There many excellent Polish shops and food purveyors in Philadelphia. I do not pretend this is a thorough list of every single Polish shop in Philadelphia or nearby. It is where I shop. Maybe you know a good place? Leave a comment and I will go there and give it a try. And write about it. - Plum

The Two Million Dollar Finger Rape - UPDATE


UPDATE: There has been another Traffic Stop Rape in New Mexico. Same noncertified drug dog and same medical center.




A routine traffic stop in New Mexico turned into a cavity search, three enemas and a colonoscopy for David Eckert. He sued and won 1.8 milliion and that is only one lawsuit. More to come.

Never talk to Cops. Never help them. Do whatever you can within the law to make their lives a living Hell before they get a chance to stick their fingers up your rectum.

Cops are the brownshirts of the 1%. How do I know? The SCOTUS says they have "no duty to protect" citizens. Protect me? I will be thrilled if they do not finger rape me for God, Country and the American way.

The War on Drugs is a War on Poor People. You think my response is over the top? Spend some time reading HERE and HERE and get back to me.

Pipe Dreams

Author: Vinay Magadi

"I am a resident of Bangalore. I graduated from Christ College, Bangalore (now Christ University) in 1989 with botany and zoology as my subjects.

In my childhood, we had a huge garden and all that we wanted, we grew in the garden. I had to shift to terrace gardening due to lack of space in our current residence.

I have grown a wide variety of vegetables like Maize, Kidney beans, ChowChow, Bush beans, Purple beans, Tomatoes, Cherry tomatoes, brinjals of different varieties, various greens, amorphophallus, Okra etc. in the terrace successfully."

Today I can say that with my pipe garden I can grow 14-22 vegetable plants in a footprint of 1 square foot.

You can read more and see more photographs at the link. I am going to try this for Strawberries.

“I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose I would always greet it in a garden.” - Ruth Stout

Penis Pumps? Say what?

Pantalone
I am shocked, I tell you. Shocked. Why aren't the Roman Catholic Bishops foaming over penis pumps like they are foaming over birth control?

98% of Catholic women use contraception. Now we get an inkling of the reason they must use it. Self defense.

Women should not want contraception with no copay sayeth the Bishops. This is said in a world of government penis pumps and no copay viagra for Senior Men. Because chastity. Say what?

I wonder: Did the Bishops fight the ACA so hard because they are PRO or ANTI government funded penis pumps? Did penis pumps even cross their mind? No matter. You go, GrandPa. Gummint has your back. Shaking my head. So it goes.
Penis pumps cost U.S. government millions, watchdog cries waste
WASHINGTON, Jan 13 (Reuters) - Penis pumps cost the U.S. government’s Medicare program $172 million between 2006 and 2011, about twice as much as the consumer would have paid at the retail level, according to a government watchdog’s report released on Monday.
The report by the inspector general for the Department of Health and Human Services said Medicare, the government health insurance system for seniors, paid nearly 474,000 claims for vacuum erection systems, or VES, totaling about $172.4 million from 2006 to 2011. Yearly claims for the devices nearly doubled from $20.6 million in 2006 to $38.6 million in 2011.
The Explainer-in-Chief is here to explain what is really UP. 


Are you listening, Congress?
Our Bill. He's a slut and I love him. 

Christians Propose to Execute Satanists

I told you this Satan statue thing was going to be a popcorn worthy event. 

I am sick unto death of Christians who threaten civil unrest and call for the execution of folks they disagree with.

I am sick unto death of sanctimonious shouts advocating violation of our Constitution.

Freedom of religion means I get to be free from YOUR religion. And that my government is secular.


Those who do not read and remember history are doomed to repeat it. Are you ready for religious riots again? Does the current crop of religious terrorism in America concern you? It concerns me bigtime and I self-identify as Christian.
America's True History of Religious Tolerance
By 
"From the earliest arrival of Europeans on America’s shores, religion has often been a cudgel, used to discriminate, suppress and even kill the foreign, the “heretic” and the “unbeliever”—including the “heathen” natives already here. Moreover, while it is true that the vast majority of early-generation Americans were Christian, the pitched battles between various Protestant sects and, more explosively, between Protestants and Catholics, present an unavoidable contradiction to the widely held notion that America is a “Christian nation.”

Asshats on Parade - God Edition - Rep.Stephen Fincher of Tennessee

I am religious. The moment a US politician mentions God, s/he loses a measure of electability for me. I am not far from making the rule that I will not vote for a God mentioner. At the moment that is impractical as a hard and fast rule. If atheists keep up the good work, that day may come.

I despise theists like Stephen Fincher who use scripture to deny people food while taking millions in farm subsidies. Stephen Fincher is a Welfare Queen. Did Fincher have to take a drug test to get his check? If quoting scripture while you starve folks is not blasphemy, I do not know what is. 



Jewish law had provisions for feeding the poor and helpless, just like we do today. Jesus said that not one bit of the law would pass away. I wonder what Jesus would say to Stephen Fincher?
“When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field and hast forgotten a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands." - Deuteronomy 24:19

Rep. Stephen Fincher 
"A man shows his character just in the way in which he deals with trifles--for then he is off his guard. This will often afford a good opportunity of observing the boundless egoism of man's nature, and his total lack of consideration for others; and if these defects show themselves in small things, or merely in his general demeanor, you will find that they also underlie his action in matters of importance, although he may disguise the fact. . . . Do not trust him beyond your door. He who is not afraid to break the laws of his own private circle, will break those of the State when he can do so with impunity." - Schopenhauer

High as A Bird - UPDATE # 3


Update # 3: 
Trey Radel is returning from drug and alcohol rehab to his job in Congress. Trey has not yet discussed his vote for drug testing poor people for food stamps. I cannot wait to hear what he has to say. I bet Trey never misses a meal. 

Want to bet drug testing for employment will go away if this petition goes viral? Congresspeople do not want to be drug tested either.

Please sign the NEW PETITION to randomly and regularly drug test Congress.
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/congresspersons-both-senate-and-house-must-be-randomly-and-regularly-drug-tested/mGP6Nj5h

Update # 2: 
What would happen to you if you did cocaine and got caught? Would you get a paid leave of absence from your job? Would you even have gotten your job without passing a drug test?

So here goes another petition to randomly and regularly drug test Congress. One day so many people will sign it, we might actually get a sane and sober Congress. That would be new.
Please sign the petition and pass the link on:

Update: 
I did not get enough signatures on the first petition. So I have started another. See it and sign: http://wh.gov/lTPOk

I just started a petition on the White House petitions site, We the People. Will you sign it? How crazy does it have to get before we clean up the House and Senate? These folks supposedly work for us. They do not come to work much. When they do come to work, they act like they are nuts. If you did that, how long would you keep your job?

WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:

Arrange for Congress, both House and Senate, to be regularly and randomly drug tested.

What is sauce for the working poor must be sauce for our legislators who work (or do not work these days) for the American public.

Some Serious Crazy Here - Update

UPDATE: Cruiser Cruz just got promoted from Christian warrior to incarnate God in Iowa. Still waiting for word about Cruz's Canadian citizenship. Hmmmm.

Poster of Cruiser Cruz stolen from JuanitaJean and the Beauty Parlor

DES MOINES, Iowa — As an audience of 600 Republicans awaited the arrival of Sen. Ted Cruz Friday night at the Iowa Events Center, conservative Christian activist Steve Scheffler came to the podium to give thanks to God for the Tea Party savior — and plead for more principled conservative leaders like him willing to “be crucified for their belief system.” 

Cruz and his Dad scare me bigtime. Does this video of Cruz Senior's speech seem kool to you, Cher Reader?

We do not have kings and do not want kings in America. And who gets to decide who the "evil" are? And whose wealth are they "transferring?"



These dominionist authoritarian "Christians" are bad news. This is the kind of fascist ideology and tone my Nonno, Angelo Pietro de Angelis, emigrated from Italy to avoid. If you think I am overreacting, read this quote. It is the same deal. Adolf Hitler said:

I say: my Christian feeling tells me that my lord and savior is a warrior. It calls my attention to the man who, lonely and surrounded by only a few supporters, recognized what they [the Jews] were, and called for a battle against them, and who, by God, was not the greatest sufferer, but the greatest warrior. . .

As a human being it is my duty to see to it that humanity will not suffer the same catastrophic collapse as did that old civilization two thousand years ago, a civilization which was driven to its ruin by the Jews. . . I am convinced that I am really a devil and not a Christian if I do not feel compassion and do not wage war, as Christ did two thousand years ago, against those who are steeling and exploiting these poverty-stricken people.

Two thousand years ago a man was similarly denounced by this particular race which today denounces and blasphememes all over the place. . . That man was dragged before a court and they said: he is arousing the people! So he, too, was an agitator!
