POPSThere's more Moore.
I thought Michael Moore's letter to President Obama was a bit harsh but then again it also hit the proverbial nail on the head. I'm proud of Pres. Obama but he's only human and therefore fallible. I don't believe (lucky for us) his admin. is as reckless as the Bush/Cheney one was. They cared nothing for people, nothing for the WORLD, only their pipe-dreams of total power were important to them. They were almost non-human. Thank goodness they are no longer in power. I can't imagine what else they would have done to ruin America. Sadly there are some of their ruthless followers carrying-on where they left off. (Beck & Limbaugh) but without power they are neutered and just don't have the BITE their mentors had! Thanks Michael for printing on your site, michaelmoore.com a retraction of sorts about what you think of our President winning the Nobel Peace Prize. I know the Republicans stick together more than we but that's their sin, not blessing. They can't change their minds but we can!

POPSAre Republicans hoping for America's Downfall? When that someday arrives we can all kiss our, you know what, goodbye! Because MAN CANNOT LIVE BY HATE ALONE. thinkingblue "Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated." - Coretta Scott King I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone... they will be forced to deal with pain. - James Arthur Baldwin

POPSA Letter of Congrats to Pres. Obama and Limbaugh Agrees with Taliban How disgusting is this? Limbaugh agrees with the Taliban because they are bashing the President of the United States of America on winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Talk about a Fifth Column? This is Rush Limbaugh's official reaction to the news that our president was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize: "Our president is a worldwide joke. Folks, do you realize something has happened here that we all agree with the Taliban and Iran about -- and that is he doesn't deserve the award? Now that's hilarious, that I'm on the same side of something with the Taliban." ----- Hey Rush, you may be on the same side as the Taliban but let me inform you, YOU DOG! You're alone in this RANT and you just exposed your true colors as a FIFTH COLUMN bent on bringing America down. IT'S TIME TO STOP LISTENING TO THIS NUTBAG, for goodness sakes! thinkingblue

POPSIn Mich. Being a Good Neighbor Is Against the Law When I opened this article this morning... I thought... GOOD GRIEF, I know we live in a Topsy-Turvy Society but this takes the cake! Wacko laws aren't new, there are probably endless piles of them still on the books somewhere in this land of ours. But please give me a break...! Acting upon them even though common sense is blatantly smacking you in the face is not only beyond the pale, it takes mindlessness to another plane. Move over Michele Bachmann, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin et al... In Michigan there are regulators who oversee child care, that make you guys look like amateurs in the screwy sphere of absurdity.

POPSMobs, Bullies and Fascists 101 The shock-jocks like Limbaugh are out there in the shadows of their microphones waiting to make an attack on the innate fears of the populous. They exaggerate, amplify, blow out of proportion and hyperbolize everything and I mean EVERYTHING that may cause apprehension amongst those who are unaware of what the radio host real motive is (make ada BIG BUCKS!). In other words they prey upon the gullible for gain. I wish these vulnerable people could become informed the old fashion way by reading and inquiring the many information outlets available (legitimate newspapers and educational library books) but that's too difficult for them, plus they may be too worn-out from the hard lives they are forced to lead, due to lack of information and education. It's just too easy to click a knob on the old TV or radio and tune into the shows that dumb down their audiences. Also, the Limbaugh's give them a punching bag to direct their pant-up anger at. It’s not only sad, it’s criminal.

POPSRight-wing Town Hall Boobs To: clipmarks commenter: Apparently, you haven’t watched any of the videos I have offered on the Townhallers (new urban word) if you had you wouldn’t be defending them (or then again, you most likely were told by the likes of Limbaugh et al, to join the mobs to stop Health Care Reform. Not because you think it’s a bad bill but because you were TOLD to hurt President Obama in the hopes that he’ll fail.) These people are a sad lot, what they are willing to swallow is pathetic. Be very afraid because Obama wants to pull the plug on Grandma? Does that sound rational to you? Obama wants us to be like Russia? WTF?? I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion even if such opinion sounds stupid or insane. But when they go out and display their absurdities in public and are filmed on videos which are spread across all our TV’s and don’t feel an inkling of shame or regret at their actions (as a matter of fact they act proud, that they are so pathetically irresponsible and mindless) more...

POPSTown Hall Madness or Spite. Town Hall Madness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2OsCt7f-IE I believe the town hall infantile displays of anger are ludicrous and make no sense at all. These people are the good little sheep of the GOP, Fox News and Right-wing Talk radio and are doing their partisan bidding. If they would stop and think about what they are doing... i.e. cutting off their nose to spite their face... they would stop this nonsense and realize they are yelling and shouting so the insurance companies can go on price gouging them. Health care will someday be so outrageously priced (actually it is now) that many will have to do without it. But the townhallers will not ever realize that... NO WAY! Because like I said, they are GOOD LITTLE SHEEP of the GOP, Fox News and Right-wing Talk radio.

POPSI'm Still Angry After All These Years I thought the Republican Party's sickening malevolence would become a thing of the past once the American people woke up and realized their responsibility towards defending our nation against fifth column organizations such as the GOP. In 2008 Barack Obama was elected because many of the sleepy heads removed their rose colored glasses and turned away from the smear machines and chanted… “Wait A Freakin’ minute, I'm getting bumpkis, nada, zilch and losing what little I did have because of the hateful Karl Rove Republicans. Hey, with so much at stake, I think I’ll vote for this new guy who offers hope instead of hate!” (I can dream, can't I?) This “awakening” allowed Obama to win by a fairly large margin. As for the GOP fading and giving us all a break? No way, not if they can help it. In fact, they are back at it using the same contemptible language and fear tactics that made them winners in the first place. (More Below)

POPSIs the GOP out to lunch? The GOP is "out to lunch" as in porch light on-nobody's home. The GOP has not been mentally there, for some time now. Strange how it could hold so many minds captive with its utterly insane propaganda. What is wrong with people? The GOP should have been laughed off the world stage at the beginning of the Bush reign of nincompoopery. But no, people embraced the blunders, starting with the preemptive Invasion of Iraq and the GOP’s cooked intelligence to launch this phony war. Then, the Terri Schiavo debacle when the GOP joined the religious right to interfere in a local matter. Also, The Marriage amendment, the GOP stuck its nose where it doesn't belong. The GOP JUSTICE SUNDAY frenzy, The GOP hurricane KATRINA incompetence The GOP Bush strut on the deck of the USS Abe Lincoln declaring "Mission Accomplished."Insanity all the way. The GOP lives in fantasy but maybe, since people are growing up, the unhinged, hateful world of the GOP might be fading away. But don't hold your breath.

POPSDemand Accountability for Torture I was watching MSNBC News and the scrolling marquee at the bottom of the screen read that Pres. Obama has assured CIA operatives they would not be prosecuted for their rough interrogation tactics. The marquee whizzed by and disappeared. I thought to myself, "oh, that can't be true". A short time went by and there it was again. That night Keith Olbermann's Special Comment was on that very subject and what he had to say was riveting. I know Pres. Obama has a lot of work to do to clean up the mess the Bush/Cheney Adm. left behind but to allow those who tortured others, (whether it be through orders or as Rush Limbaugh would put it "JUST TO LET OFF STEAM"), off the hook, IS WRONG!! Two words enter my mind NAZI GERMANY. I guess the Nuremberg trials were a mistake and all those guilty of unspeakable acts should have been allowed to live their lives out normally.

POPSA Breath Of Sanity with Frank Schaeffer "Crazy For God" I saw this clip the other night on “D.L. Hughley Breaks the News" Late Night Show. His guest was Frank Schaeffer and although, I have never heard of this man before, what he had to say was so coherent and sane, I had to search youtube to see if anyone had copied this segment of Hughley's show and posted it to youtube. Sure enough, the video was not hard to find. If you would like an extra breath of sanity, please listen to Schaeffer's opinion on why our beautiful nation is suffering so, after the insane takeover by the Right Wing Nut zealots and neoconservative war mongers. Why would anyone want to be associated with these groups is beyond all that is rational. If I were a sound of mind conservative, I would distance myself and my beliefs as far away from these crazy, Rush Limbaugh "DITOHEADS" (Note, spell check gives the word "DICKHEADS") as I could get.

POPSPalin’s Taking Us Back to "McCarthyism". The acrimonious language in Palin’s speeches, take us back to "McCarthyism". We've all known that Rightdiculous columnists and their nastier Right-Wing talk radio hacks have been doing this rhetoric for years. And that their ditto heads have been soaking it up, in the comfort of their living rooms, where they shout obscenities and hateful oratory, alone or among their kind. Now McCain’s, VP choice allows them a place IN PUBLIC to caterwaul their Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter induced RAGE. It must be a catharses for the pathetic souls who have been listening and reading the unadulterated animosity coming over air waves or in print, directed at some unknown enemy. They now can UNLEASH the bottled up hatred, in the open and have a recognizable foe, thanks to the self-proclaimed pit-bull. The wingnut goons behind desks or microphones must be MIGHTY PROUD! “HURRAY FOR SARAH PALIN!” they shout. She’s harvesting the grotesque seeds of hatred, we’ve fervently sewn!

POPSFox Noise Is At It Again!! Dear Fox News or rather Noise, Your behavior goes way beyond the pale. In fact your type of excessive fear mongering displays exactly what you try to paint Senator Barack Obama as... foreign, un-American, suspicious, and scary. I realize your viewers are mainly the Limbaugh Ditto Heads but that doesn't excuse your spewing racist and bigoted defamation over our airwaves. You should hang your heads in shame but you have no shame. If you had a human attribute such as guilt you would have stopped long ago to slander anyone who went against your mindset of the rich should get richer and the poor should get lies and distortion. In other words keep the ignorant, ignorant! Your sponsors are as responsible as you, in their disservice to the public and I hope with all that is good they will eventually become losers just like yourselves.

POPSLimbaugh tops his own bigotry with this one. It's hard to believe what can come out of the mouth (butt) of Rush Limbaugh but his latest tirade is beyond belief, beyond disgusting, beyond loathsome. Yes it's very hard to believe this mindless little man could stoop so low as to praise the flood victims in Iowa, Illinois who happen to be mostly white and at the same time, condemn the Katrina victims with the same old rhetoric, innuendos and outright bigotry that the KKK type people carry in their bags of hateful garbage. Those poor hurrican victims, who happen to be mostly of color are responsible in the intolerant brain cells of Rush, for their fate. I know beyond the pale, is too weak a phrase for this criticism from a genuine butt-hole. The only bewilderment I feel of such a creep sputtering into a microphone that goes out over the airwaves is, WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE LISTEN TO HIS SHIT AND STILL THINK OF HIM AS A CREDIBLE BEARER OF THE TRUTH? :-? http://thinkingblue.blogspot.com

POPSHate Limbaugh or Limbaugh's hate! Dangerous or Laughable? (I chose both but the former rather than the latter is more direct... One Dangerous Dude!) ~~~~~~~ It was no surprise that Limbaugh would call for riots at the Democratic National Convention in Denver to embarrass the Democrats. Limbaugh -- and his fellow purveyors of hate on the airwaves -- are dangerous demagogues whom pro-democracy Americans too easily dismiss as poltroonish shills for the entrenched powers. It's a regular staple of the millionaire right-wing echo chamber to use the explicit or implicit language of violence. In fact, the entire "frame" of everyone from Sean Hannity to Bill O'Reilly to Rush Limbaugh is to convince their listeners that people who don't agree with these "pundits of patriotism" are the enemy and dangerous to America.

POPSRush Limbaugh Still Disrupting Democracy! Anyone who has read my clipmarks knows, I do not like Limbaugh. Proof of this is in several videos I had made to expose how despicable this man and all his mental crap is as he spreads lies and ignorance across our airwaves. RUSH LIMBAUGH YOUTUBE VIDEOS by thethinkingblue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4k1jvS4FBlI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIxz4LURIv4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgkK5PbliHQ and this one which youtube removed. http://www.youtube.com/v/_7kXEftfAu0 But I retained the Limbaugh block-headed comments here: :http://www.thethinkingblue.com/limbaughcomments.html Why anyone would listen to this annoying windbag and BELIEVE him is hard to explain. I guess there are just too many misinformed Americans who would rather HATE than try to understand what is really going on while they are busy despising, loathing and detesting instead of LEARNING. Listening to Gushing Rush is so much easier than investigating the TRUTH and he really can rile and incense you to NO END...

POPSLIMBAUGH'S NEWSPEAK! Understanding Fascism Fascism has come to be a useless term in the past 30 years or so. In many respects, leftists are most responsible for this degradation; it became so common to lob the word at just about anyone conservative or corporatist in the '60s and '70s that its original meaning -- describing a very distinct political style-- became utterly muddled, at least in the public lexicon. A recent example of this was the report at Take Back the Media that Limbaugh had characterized antiwar protesters as "fascists and anti-American." It's clear that liberals are every bit as prone to confusing fascism with totalitarianism as are conservatives. The difference, is that the latter often do so deliberately, as a way of obscuring the fascism that sits at their elbows. It’s important that Americans of all stripes LEFT or RIGHT have a clear view of what fascism is- it is not an extinct political force.

POPSWE DO NOT TORTURE? Read johnnywaters9999 comment: --- “The US does not torture,” President Bush has repeated often—in the face of terrible pictures from Abu Ghraib and vicious stories from around the world. What is the President saying? Is it a lie or wishful denial, or positive thinking, or casuist ry, or political pandering? Richard Pryor had a comedy routine where he advised husbands caught in flagranto to counter with “are you going to believe me or your lying eyes?” Sometimes we deny by closing our eyes. But sometimes we deny by rationalizing; by attacking the facts with negation and reasoning. President Bush can say the US doesn’t torture because he redefines US and torture. To wit: The US is good and wouldn’t do anything bad. A few bad apple rogue torturers working the night shift at Abu Ghraib aren’t the US. And, aided by lawyers, he torques senseless the meaning of torture, restricting it by abstraction and redefinition, and by the Secretary of Defense special—reduction to the absurd.

POPSTHE BUSH ZONE I made this page almost two years ago, when I use to clipmark pages without the aid of CLIPMARKS. At that time I enjoyed reading John Cory's articles. He is a Vietnam veteran who received the Purple Heart and Bronze Star with V (Valor) device, 1969 - 1970. I guess he's what Limbaugh would brand a PHONY SOLDIER! :mad: He writes with straightforward feelings of Anger and Sorrow, the sentiments most of us have about the long scourge of the Bush/Cheney/Neocon Administration. Almost 7 years of suffering for most and a devastating downward slide into the abyss for our Nation. I thought when the Dems won the slight majority in 2006... all the negatives Bush and his cabal had unleashed would finally start to turn around and become undone. But little has changed, far from enough. The Big Question is... WILL IT EVER END? And The Big Answer is... MAYBE IT'S TOO LATE! All we can do is sit and wait in THE BUSH ZONE... oh yes, and... HOPE that it's not too late! :-?

POPSYOU'RE ON THE AIR WITH RUSH LIMBAUGH. On the website http://www.thethinkingblue.com/limbaughcomments.html is a remake of the Rush Limbaugh video from YOUTUBE The only changes I made were the pictures. The original film had images of the devastation of war, on all people involved, the men, women and children caught in the horrors of war. I don't know why YOUTUBE pulled the video but I thought perhaps it was because of those sad pictures. We Americans get a WHITEWASHED version of the war and maybe YOUTUBE wanted to keep it that way. But if it was because of what Rush Limbaugh said on the uncut audio of his show and YOUTUBE was protecting him... THE SHAME IS ON YOUTUBE, who like so many on the right spin, twist and cajole TRUTH until it no longer resembles actuality, just so it will fit their account of reality. You can also view the video on the camaroz28 server: http://videos.camaroz28.com/video/6ebe1dc3-e5e0-4a3a-bcc4-99d401031775.htm

POPSThe GRATEFUL IGNORANT who watch FOX NEWS This is so prototypical of a typical FOX NEWS broadcast. Whenever, I stumble upon a video of a Fox news item ... (Stumble, because I can't stomach even a few minutes of the so called News Source on my TV, since I've CONTRACTED THE BAD HABIT OF "THINKING") I can't help but think... (Darn, there I go again THINKING) WHO ARE THE IGNORAMUSES WHO NEED A DAILY DOSE OF THIS B.S. EVERYDAY? They must not listen or watch anything else but Fox, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Michelle Malkin and slanderous of all, ANN COULTER who recently said "U.S. is a 'Christian nation' and Jews needed to 'perfect' themselves into Christians" or the many other right-winged noise makers, to believe ANYTHING they have to say. Because if they would pick up a legitimate magazine or newspaper and glance at it or maybe even, "cringe", look at a different channel like... "OH NO", Link TV, FreeSpeech TV or PBS, they might develop that annoying habit of THINKING FOR THEMSELVES, too! :-?

POPSWhy No One Should Listen To Rush Limbaugh Limbaugh Crosses the Line by Roy Perdue Though it has been years since I degraded my intelligence as to listen to the Rush Limbaugh show, it was brought to my attention last night that Limbaugh finally crossed the line. Apparently Rush was on another of his rants about how great Abraham Lincoln was, and how wrong the South was in the conflict commonly called the American Civil War. I listened to Limbaugh a great deal in the late 90s and up until about 2002. I finally became fed up with his attitude that every thing that Bush and the GOP do is holy. Limbaugh that those that expose the corruption in the GOP are liberals and working for the Democrats. As John Stossel would say, "Give me a break!" Limbaugh has also stated many times that he would like to see America be taken over by a "conservative" dictatorship, even going so far as to say that he could straighten out the country within two years if he were named the dictator!

POPSBODY OF WAR - Phil Donahue's new documentary - This is a powerful film enlisting a "REAL" Soldier's plight to live a normal life after being injured in Iraq. His injuries, that left him paralyzed from the waist down, occurred after only 5 days of arrival in the land the Bush Cabal decided to invade. It's heart wrenching and inspiring. With songs written just for "Body Of War" by Eddie Vedder (of Pearl Jam fame). Tomas Young, the young man, the film focuses on (Rush Limbaugh's idea of a FAKE SOLDIER) is so courageous in his battle to maintain his sanity within a broken body. He represents all those who have sacrificed so much for the Neocon's idea of reality, while they (THE PNAC) themselves, forfeited nothing except for power. (which they still do not recognize as lost.) A must see movie for those of us who can see beyond the machismo delusions of war! Please watch the youtube presentation, showing a few scenes leading up to the birth of a magnificent body of work.

POPSPHONEY LIMBAUGH on PHONEY SOLDIERS - the man is SICK! Rush Limbaugh still getting kid-glove treatment on FOXNews.com (WHAT ELSE IS NEW) Reported by Chrish - September 28, 2007 - As noted this morning, FOXNews.com was not covering the story of Rush Limbaugh's insulting comment, calling some US troops who criticize the Iraq war or call for an end to it "phony soldiers" who show up "out of the blue." Read full background at MediaMatters.org. As of 7pm EDT there are two links to stories on the FOX webpage, but note that although they are titled differently and have seperate links, they are the same AP story and are entitled to shift focus to Democrats: Dems Criticize Limbaugh's Comments and Democrats Criticize Rush Limbaugh's 'Phony Soldiers' Remark. Seeing as this is Friday night, fully expect FOX to ignore all weekend (no special on this one!) and dismiss as old news by Monday, unlike with the MoveOn ad, when there was round-the-clock outrage for two weeks with a weekend special to keep the story alive.
