ZOMG! Really, can we not let this go?

That left hook was a killer.
That idiot on Fox News, the one who does the "business" news in just before Prime Time, did a frickin' feature on the death of Smokin' Joe Frazier.

This loser, naturally, went on about what a "good" black Frazier was, not one who refused to kill innocent Vietnamese, and become a Muslim.

It is supremely sad when every fucking single thing has to pass through a political prism.

I have had it up to here with arguing with these morans (that sic is on purpose).

Why can we not enjoy today the life of Smokin' Joe, his Gold Medal, his monumental achievement of being the first man evah to beat Ali in the ring? His thrilling fights with Ali, incl the immortal Cosell call, "Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!", which will live in American sports history for decades?

Frazier was no saint.  But he is a crucial, important sports figure in Baby Boomer Sports History.  Can we puh-leeze skip the personal, private details of his later life, and just treasure him for what he was in his salad days?

The folks who passed this shit along sed, natch, "This was a private joke.  I am sorry if anybody out there was offended."
Smokin' Joe Frazier is one of the greatest heavy weight fighters of all-time.  I do not give a rats' ass about his politics.  And to use that against Ali, suffering from Parkinson's, which Fat Ass Rush Limbaugh feels is just an excuse to espouse Liberal ideas (see Limbaugh's abominable treatment of Michael J. Fox when he spoke his mind) is the absolute lowest of the low.

As the Wife sed, re a racist email of Obama as the 44th president, Obama is the one in the in the bottom right hand corner, "Man, it is time for people to fucking grow up."

(It is v simple, pleasurable, and comforting to claim, "That is not my guy, I support Ron Paul", or whatever.  Well, Ron frickin' Paul is not even man enough to run on the Libertarian, or third party ticket.  The people who run Fox News and the same people that throw up this hateful kind of shit every frickin' day of the week, and 2ce on Sundays, are the GOP.  Ron fucking Paul is a card carrying [yeh, how does that feel?] member of the GOP.  These are your people.  And like the Wife sed, "It is time for you to fucking grow up.")

You know, even Hearst in his day could not defeat FDR, our last truly great president.  FDR foiled the GOP time and time again.  And when he did reach across the aisle and compromise with the GOP, it was a disaster.  You can never trust a Republican (or espec a Libertarian, they are the worst.)

Europe, decades ago, decided that the common weal was of supreme importance to its' individual country's survival.  My goodness, I spoke about this a billion year ago, in a much more sober, sane way:

*** Will the US ever reach a point where the people will finally decide that even a modest, fair tax burden would make life so much better for all its' citizens? Will it take a full-fledged depression again to see this happen? Meanwhile levees burst, bridges collapse,  and nearly half of the country uses the emergency room as its' doctors office.

That was July 2008 that I wrote those words on a long dead blog that eventually re-sprouted and became the tiny slip of a thing you read today.

We are done.  That is why I refrain from political posts these days.  The good guys lost.

The Occupy folks give me hope, but they are so not hardwired in to the money that really moves this nation and convinces folks time and time again to vote against their best interests.

The good movie, Bonnie and Clyde, expressed the Kansas/Oklahoma Socialist/Anarchist times best.  There was a time then that people wanted to rob banks and shoot landlords.

Those days are done.  The landlords and banks have fucking won the battle, so far.

As crazy at it sounds, it will take much worse than the Great Depression or some major cataclysmic war on our soil before this country fucking wakes up.  


(That is in the near future.  The tide is def turning against the GOP, and they have no back-up plan to speak of.  But what will be left of the leftists, eventually, when they are all owned by the banks and corporations, by then?)

All my fuking love,
Ardent Henry
