Savage Kurds Mutilate Their Women

There’s plenty of horror and mindless torture in the world, but when done under the guise of tradition and respectability, it goes beyond the pale. Many aspects of Middle Eastern, and African culture for that matter can seem very strange to the average American, and in some cases sickeningly barbaric.

The practice of female circumcision is deeply ingrained into Kurdish society, and for them an honorable practice that goes back generations. Honorable to the men, but a nightmarish bloodbath for the young girls that are attacked in this manner. It is usually the mother, or some other woman skilled in the art that does the deed. The young girl is held down and if she’s lucky, under general anesthesia a piece of her genitals is removed. What part do think that is? That’s right, they cut out her clitoris. Sometimes it goes even further than that, but it is all to make sure the woman is somehow “clean”. What self-respecting Kurdish man would want some tramp of a wife? This procedure takes care of that problem. There should be no danger of a woman becoming too aroused after enduring this kind of mutilation.

Guys, I don’t want to get too graphic here, but what if your dad dragged you into a room where they were waiting to cut your nuts off? These girls have no choice. And all the blood, and the fighting, and the worrying, and the suffering, and the money we put into Iraq, is for what? To liberate this kind of savagery? Is that why thousands of our men and women died over there? Is that why my cousin did 3 tours? Is that why my great grandchildren will be paying for this? So innocent little girls can be hacked up to the specifications of twisted minds?

Pardon my language but fuck religion! I have maintained for years that religion causes more problems in the world than any other single reason. Right again. If the Kurds wanted 1/3 of that country, George Bush could have twisted some arms and brought them into at least the 19th century. Not a peep out of that worthless bastard. Great job with democracy you piece of shit. Maybe when Obama-oh who am I kidding, they do it in Kenya too…

The Retail Sales Scam

The next time you go to a store and see an item marked sale you probably assume that the sale price is lower than the original retail price. Not so fast. In the case of a failing business, liquidators take over and may leave the price the same, or in many cases raise the prices, slapping a sale sign on the items in hopes of duping the consumer into buying an overpriced item. Another tactic is price baiting.That is the practice of lowering the price on some goods in order to entice the consumer to come in to the store, where they will subsequently be hit with the high price sales scam. If anyone went to the Mervyn’s going out of business sale, you may have seen these tricks of the trade in action. Apparently it worked very well, because it appears that Mervyn’s was able to unload most of their junk.

Not everyone falls for the scam though, and as a consequence the National Retail Federation has come up with a new scam. They want president elect Obama to implement tax free shopping holidays, with the states’ lost tax revenue reimbursed by the feds. Now where would the feds get that money? You got it, straight out of the pockets of the consumers the NRF is trying to scam. Another bailout request.

Retailers have cut their own throats with the outsourcing orgy of the last several years. Now, instead of modest sales from working Americans, they are stuck with cheap crap from child labor factories that Americans cannot buy, because they have lost their jobs, and there are no available jobs to replace those, because they are overseas. Business suffers, the consumer suffers, even the cheap labor suffers because they are now unable to unload their wares.

The NRF fails to understand a very simple concept: If a consumer has no job, they will not buy what amounts to non-essential items most of the time. Made in the USA. That is what built this country into an empire. Apparently modern business has forgotten that, and another bailout will just encourage more bad business strategy.

Time To Legalize Marijuana?

With the backing of legions of potheads and 500 economists (501 if you count Milton Friedman), the push to legalize marijuana grows stronger by the day. Given the current economic malaise America is experiencing, legalizing the number one cash crop, at least on an economic level, would make sense. There is also the therapeutic angle, as the several states where the voters have approved the weed for medicinal use can attest to.

But what would be the consequences of legalizing pot? Sure, there would be abuse, but there is abuse now, even with the fact that a dime bag will land you in jail hanging over the heads of recreational smokers and medical patients alike. The argument could be made that alcohol, tobacco and firearms are all legal, but heavily regulated. The government, and therefore the country benefits from the controlled legalization of these things. The fact of the matter is that those three things would still envelop society whether they were legal or not. Just ask the folks who lived through prohibition. It would seem to make sense that if you cannot obliterate it, then tax it. That could be construed as a silver lining to drug use.

We can only speculate what position our president elect will take on this issue, but given his admitted history, he may just be open to at least some kind of legalization.

Rat Bastard Bush Pardons More Human Garbage

What is going on inside that pea-brain? Did one of those shoes actually hit him? George Bush pardons 19 more, most of them repulsive slime, but two Border Patrol heroes continue to rot in prison.

Not unlike his last batch of pals that he pardoned, this latest motley crew includes drug smugglers, human traffickers, embezzlers, various fraudsters and the like. Somehow Bush felt that this type of vermin was deserving of a presidential pardon, while Ramos and Campeon, the two Border agents convicted of doing their job, sit in solitary confinement, a glaring symbol of what this administration’s agenda really is: wide open borders leading to a North American Union, a diluting of the decent paying jobs for Americans, the absolute decimation of Mexico by taking their youngest and strongest away before absorbing the carcass, and all the while perpetuating this phony war on terror as a diversion. Sure, there really are those that would love to harm America, but Bush is doing nothing to stop them. Al Jazeera will tell you. They were down on the border making a how-to documentary on how to waltz into America unopposed. Yes, unopposed, because if anybody dares to secure that border, they just might end up in jail-like Ramos and Campeon.

Barack Obama certainly is no prize, but at the same time, George Bush should feel fortunate that he only had two shoes hurled at him. He is a piece of crap that should never had been elected at all, much less twice. Previous posts have documented how rife with fraud the voting system is in this country, so maybe he wasn’t actually elected.

Expecting Bush to pardon two men that deserve to be pardoned is asking too much. Maybe Obama can change that in January. A “BO” scribble on a piece of paper is all it would take. That is, unless he’s just the left cog in the same machine. But that’s another post…

Banks Refuse To Account For Your Bailout Money

It’s the ultimate arrogance for those supposed bright financial minds that drove companies that were worth billions of dollars into the ground. When banks were asked what they were doing with the money, they couldn’t come up with a straight answer.

The AP contacted 21 banks that were recipients of our money and asked 4 simple questions: How much has been spent? What was it spent on? How much is being held in savings, and what’s the plan for the rest? All they got was the proverbial finger from all of them. Why should they answer? The buffoons in congress that actually facilitated this transfer of wealth had nothing in the bill that would hold these institutions accountable. They even left a huge loophole that would allow these crooked executives to still rake in huge bonuses.

This is the biggest ripoff in history, and the banks are laughing in the face of America. They don’t need to be competent, not when they have your paycheck to back them up…
