The Global Outrage of an Educated Man...............vol. 74
Hope everyone got a chance to use their economic stimulus check when they had the chance. Can you hear the knocking at your front door, yep that's right, now the government wants it back so it can bail out the "too big to fail" companies on Wall Street and also to put a stop to the 10,000 foreclosures that are happening every day. The US Government wants every dime we can spare so it can set up another regulatory body creating a system that with each passing day looks more and more like a form of socialism. That's right, the US Government swallowed up AIG, Fannie Mae and her brother Freddie Mac, and Bear Stearns, to the lump sum of $700 billion dollars. Coming to roughly, $2300 per tax payer. Thanks again for that economic stimulus check. That was sure a good idea. All we will have to do is fire up the printing press and get some more dollars into the market, or else people will actually realize that the dollar isn't worth much anymore. It has to backed by the full faith and credit of the US Government. How much faith and credit do we have anymore? I ask you that.
Oh, and it's a good thing for John Mccain that Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinijead supports Obama. That should get Mccain some more votes from the bible belt. Didn't Bin Laden release a tape endorsing John Kerry before the 2004 election? Kind of sounds familiar doesn't it. Deja vu all over again.

On the Road again.....
The Global Outrage of an Educated Man.........vol.73
Lipstick on a pig. How about that? Lipstick on a pig is today's catchphrase. I was at the State Fair this year and I didn't notice any booth that was offering that kind of deal. I was too heavily focused on finding the freak show down in the Midway or was I sipping on my nice tall glass of Stella Artois at the time? I forget. Where is that booth? It may have been out by the Minneapolis International Airport and nearby Sen. Larry Craig's favorite bathroom stall. Can't you just hear the foot tapping? To the beat of a different drummer. No pun intended. Seriously, no offense. Getting off track once again. My apologies. This kind of stuff comes around once in a lifetime. Maybe the mud of the pigs' is America, and listen how we squeal.
Thanks a lot for those economic stimulus checks. Oh, what's this now? You want them back to bailout companies that are "too big to fail". It's nice to know that average citizen doesn't have a safety net as neat and tidy as the Federal Government does for Wall Street big businesses. I know that if the federal government didn't step up to the plate and beg for more money to stave off another Depression we would all be going for each other's throats and looting and burning whatever cash we do have on hand, because we'd realize once and for all that not only is our country morally bankrupt but financially as well. How else can anyone explain "Hole in the Wall?'". 700 Billion dollars on top of the 10 billion that we are spending every month in Iraq. Who would want to be President of the United States? Look what they are going to inherit. Ouch. But at least the President has been telling us that our Economy has been "fundamentally sound." Whew, that is a relief. I almost thought we may be in trouble here. I mean how much is our dollar really worth when all we do is print more and send more out into the marketplace when we know in our heart of hearts that we are never going to pay off our national debt. Never. Then again, if the world is going to end or whatever changes might occur by December 22, 2012, this is kind of leading us down that thorny path. Can't you just smell the roses? You know what you need for nice flowers to grow? Bull. Yep, you guessed it. Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy the filth.

"The hardest things to leave are the things you need the least." Dylan
The Global Outrage of an Educated Man...........vol.72
Wow!! What a Democratic National Convention. What a scene. What a crowd. What a response. 40 million people tuned in on Thursday night to watch Barack Obama speak to 75,000 people at Invesco Field and get them fired up and inspired for the future, to take America back, or at least on a completely different path, and then, John Mccain names Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential candidate and a little bit of the wind was let out of the Democratic Party's sails. I think Hillary Clinton must have been biting her lip in some closed door hotel room with secret service agents standing guard just outside and punching Bill in the gut or kicking him somewhere else. Use your imagination. It was a week to remember in Denver. Now we turn our focus to New Orleans once again and to St. Paul for the first time since professional hockey returned to the state of Minnesota. Thanks in large part to Norm Green. Not Norm Coleman, or Tim Pawlenty or Al Franken, despite what they will tell you. And who knows, we may see the same thing in the next couple of years if we don't succomb to Zigi and help finance a new stadium for the Vikings. But, if I know Minnesotans, we will scream and holler about taxes and why should we have to pay for something like that and we will probably watch them leave and then be kicking ourselves for letting them leave and have to shell out even more money to get them back. That's only if I know Minnesotans. Just a thought. Where was I? I'm sorry for speeding recklessly off of the path of least resistance. Got to splash some water on the face and take a long look into the mirror. Back to reality. I have to get a grip. Whew. Okay then. Back to New Orleans and the people who decided to move back there after Katrina. People who obviously are as much of a dreamer as I. Either they had too much optimism or not enough reality or too many hallucinogens. Please no comment from the peanut gallery. It's just a little bit of "history repeating". Sad sad scene it may turn out to be. Get out your kleenex. Personally, I think they need to move New Orleans about 100 miles north. Just a thought. And maybe move St. Paul 10 miles closer to Minneapolis, because nobody in the major media can tell the difference between the two anyway. And nobody from Minneapolis seems to venture over to our other city anyhow. I know. I'm a redheaded stepchild myself. Back to the coming storm, not the RNC, but Gustav may be a blessing in disguise for the GOP, since they now will not have W or Darth Vader in St. Paul on Monday. I know. I would have liked to see the protestors getting a chance to really turn up the heat on Labor day and land some stink bombs or buckets of urine onto the two war criminals. But that's just me. What can I say. Instead the GOP will be seen as the party of responsibility and equality, just so long as you don't want to have an abortion even if you've been raped from a complete stranger or from an overly loving father or father-in-law, and you believe in God to the extent that you firmly believe it all started with Adam and Eve. Why not follow the custom of the middle east and banish and shun the rape victims because they brought shame upon themselves and their families? Fanaticism can be both Christian and Islamic. There can be no deviation from that. None. Remember, Guantamo is still open. We have places to put you people. Salt of the earth people. But we must remain vigilant. We must remain on guard. The terrorists will never stop. Ever. Just like the "Terminator". It should be a pretty interesting week.
Finally, to all of those U of M alumni, we've matched last season's win total. How about that for progress?
Happy Labor day. Abundant peace, love and happiness to all of you, wherever you are, whoever you are and whoever you vote for.

The Global Outrage of an Educated Man......happy birthday Bob, 67 years young!!!
The Global Outrage of an Educated Man......vol. 69
The drumbeats of propaganda for war against Iran are getting louder and louder like hooves pounding the oncoming stampede.
We have a presidential campaign, an historic campaign, where only money can buy influence, but is anyone covering the issues? Is the Media asking important questions? Instead we see slow pitch softballs lobbed at the candidates and were not even at Be-Bops.
Did anyone know that there was a supposed suicide of the D.C Madam in her jail cell? You are probably asking yourself, who is the D.C madam? She was only the Heidi Fleiss of Washington D.C. She must have had some very important customers if not even a word of her death was given a moments attention by the major media outlets. Maybe someone on that list of her's needed it kept out of the spotlight for some time to come. Yeah, she committed suicide in her jail cell. Yeah. Right.
I may no longer believe that there was a great conspiracy to kill JFK, but I ain't buying that. Or the moon landing. Stanley Kubrick helped NASA film the moon landing shots. He was sworn to secrecy. He was paranoid. His last movie was "Eyes Wide Shut". Because the world had their eyes open but couldn't see the lie. How does the flag blow in the wind on the moon when there is no atmosphere? I could go on, but I won't.
The word of the year is Super delegate. Democracy is great when it's decided by 400 Super delegates. YAAAAAAY!!!
Finally for now, we do have some good news. Some pure news. Innocence with hooves. We have Big Brown and his busted ankle trying to be the first horse in thirty years to win the triple crown at the upcoming Belmont Stakes. It is a great thing to watch and cheer for. However, I urge all of you to watch and cry like I did to Secretariat at the 73' Belmont Stakes.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2c_ylcxgCaI
