The Tribune Online, 59
A "Comfy" Crossover
I started this online publication out of a necessity to advertise my business in healthcare, and being that my business start-up was exposing some of the practices in the healthcare industry, the major print publication in the metropolitan white community and the community publication in the black community were both hesitant about my comments, and refused to print my evaluations of the healthcare market. Also they didn't even want to advertise my new business being that it conflicted with major ad buyers of both publications. Thus, I started my own online publication http://theroanoketribune.com that now circulates world wide thanks to web technology.
Another coincidental culmination was the run for the Presidency by Barack Obama in the Democratic primary, and I took his side with daily blogs submitted to other print publications across America, while castigating his number one nemesis, "Rush Limabutt" that I still lambaste at every opportunity...he's simply fodder for my critical analysis.
Nevertheless, I have established a comfortable crossover between the major white newspaper the Roanoke Times and the black community newspaper, the Roanoke Tribune...hard copy. I even offered to build this website for them ...the Tribune, that is, but they weren't having it. So, I simply established the online publication for myself and my business needs. I occasionally exchange my blogs with the Roanoke Times, but can't do that with the Tribune for they have yet to come into the modernity of the Internet.
Dumping the "Scalawag" Sultans and Sheiks
From Fox News.com (2-10-11):
"Saudi Arabia has threatened to prop up embattled Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak if the Obama Administration tries to force a swift change of regime in Egypt. The Times of London reported Thursday.
In a testy personal telephone call on January 29, Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah reportedly told President Obama not to humiliate Mubarak and warned that he would step in to bankroll Egypt if the US withdrew its aid program, worth $1.5 billion annually."
My reaction to this "scuttlebutt" is good!! This is something the Arab emirates should have been doing decades ago going as far back as Ronald Reagan, with the US continuing to prop up the corrupt mid-east regimes such as Egypt and Iran, until it's deposing the Shah...as will be with Egypt...with Saudi Arabia not far behind.
These regimes used their religious and familial control to suppress their people since the days shortly after the death of "the Prophet", becoming more and more decadent with each generation, sinning lavishly against the teachings of "the Prophet" from drug peddling, terrorism, commercial enslavement of women and children, and governmental death and destruction.
Saudi Arabia even wanted the US to go so far as to take out Iran, according to Wikileaks, to continue to keep their crooked butts in power...we didn't and haven't gone for that bait, based on their pleas of chaos in the Middle East and our dependence on their oil. The sunni power structure is being shaken at its core with what looks like a "shia-like" common-folk uprising with a solution that the "corrupt" don't want in this "domino fall."
The only solution at this stage is for Mubarak to start packing now, and for all of the Arab emirates to make a public and joint commitment to take their financial holdings in their banks at home and abroad and invest in their new democratic regimes, rebuild infrastructure, better schools, modernize health care, remove the ancient and archaic tribalistic culture of religious repression in the name of the "Prophet" and end subjugation by familial monrachy. Short of this, they will have hell to pay...and the "piper" is not one to play around with a lot of "sultanic or sheik-like bullsh*t."
Time for some serious budget-whacking...
I suggest we start with overseas nations such as in the mid-east, Israel included. It is high time that these independent nations start applying good old American capitalism...developing products and producing services the world needs; instead of their perennial, long-term religious disagreements, of which, I for one am sick of hearing. If these damned fools are so content in killing off each other...so be it. The world might be a better place for it.
There should be no more foreign subsidies, without true justification, and used only as payments to reduce our nation's debt to whomever. If they don't like it...there's always default, of course that means they get nothing!! Besides, the mullahs, imams, and rabbis just use a great portion of these subsidies to buy more weapons to continue with this religious tom foolery. Enough already!!
More Moronic Pandering??
News media state that Rahm Emmanuel, politicking for the mayoral slot in Chicago, says he's for slavery reparations?? What's this fool smoking? Ain't a snowball chance in hell that will even be remotely considered by the US, even if there was no staggering deficit.
Then there's the story in Mississippi, that Mississippi wants to honor one of the founders of the KKK during their Confederate Heritage Month, Nathan Bedford Forrest, who continued to slaughter blacks after the Civil War was over. The politicos are proposing a license plate in honor of this "Kluxer" and with more blacks in that state than any other of the fifty.
My being from Alabama, where the rednecks state boldly...Thank God for ole Mississippi, for they can always prove to the rest of the world that Alabama rednecks are not the dumbest rednecks on the face of God's green earth. This is just sheer Haley Barbourism!!
Mark Levin...The Screamin' Constitutionalist
Mark Levin as most of us know by now, is the little suck-up to "Rush Limabutt" in his virulent, right-wing talk show out of New York.
I noticed that many individuals that can't get passed the call screener to truly challenge "Limabutt," (including myself) and the very few that do, are generally discontinued by what they refer to in the business as a"hard break" when "besting the beast."
Those who do manage to get through to challenge Levin are over-talked by Levin's non-stop interruptions/insults, or he simply hangs up on them...a Michael Savage tactic, a renowned self-hating Jew. These talk shows simply reveal these "bamboozlers" for what they truly are.
As a matter of fact, I see a diabolical link between Mark Levin and the Jew sellout, Alfred Rosenberg, who escorted Hitler into power. If you didn't know, Michael Levin only claims his Jewish heritage when it's commercially convenient; whereas, the other right-wing Jew, Neal Boortz, is reluctant to do so, and instead refers only to his "German pedigree"... like Mark Savage, who only recognizes his ancestry as a son of Russian immigrants.
Don't these fools know that "plasticity" is transparent??
Guess What?..."Rush Limabutt" comes a calling!!
At least someone claiming to be his representative called, and said he was willing to patch me through for a mano-a-mano. I think this might have been in response to my blog above. I asked why wasn't this possible back when he (Limabutt) was so highly critical in his effort to derail then primary candidate Barack Obama, with his "operation chaos"? No answer.
I believe that this "schlock talker" is slipping in his ratings weekly, if not daily, and willing to pursue any survival mechanism to stay in the runnings...sort of like Mubarak, who just last night announced he's stepping down...for real this time. Now, he needs to get on the first flight smoking to Saudi Arabia...where this people's movement will eventually arrive.
I remember my encounter with "60 Minutes" and one of their producers, Marjorie Holyoke, who never could get Dan Rather to take me on in a face to face about "IBM". A lot of progress has been made since those days in the 1980's, and I told the caller, I don't need to talk to "Limabutt" on his show, when I can lambaste him and any other right winger at my discretion from my online publication...he hung up.
