‘Where Eagles Dare’
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the grey, cool island of Nantucket! Great to be with you on this Friday morning, the 17th day of March, 2012, coming to you LIVE at this seven a.m. hour from the shores of Cotuit on Cape, ‘where the ocean meets the wood’, as you look up at the mighty ‘Eagle’, a Steamship authority vessel that takes one to the fabled island of Nantucket, a mere thirty miles south/southeast of Hyannis Harbor, a place steeped in rich history as well as the richest zip code in the United States today, overtaking Beverly Hills ‘90210′ as top dog for the rich and famous every summer…with this upcoming summer being one to remember with an uptick in the economy for the first time in four or five years, hinting that boom times are back for the .001 percent and some who are lucky enough to have it “trickle down” to them. Of course, not all Americans are feeling that 13,000 plus on the Dow Jones Industrial scale, a fact not lost on President Barack Obama yesterday as his bid to become this nation’s 45th President kicks off this 2012 Presidential campaign with gusto, bringing the big guns by way of Vice President Joe Biden, who brought up the glaring point that front runner Mitt Romney stated during the ‘08 financial meltdown, with GM about to go under water, taking the rest of Detroit with it, “…let GM go bankrupt”, begging the question, ‘if Mitt envisioned that folly, what else would he decide if he, God Forbid, were elected to the highest office in the land?’, or, even better, ‘what other people would he leave out in the cold?’… Reasonable questions to begin asking the candidate, even if it makes him uncomfortable, for this is not a board room, this is not a Fortune 100 company, this is not one of Bain Capital’s chop shop specials, this is the United States of America, a country that has seen herself put a man on the moon, end fascism in Europe and the Pacific, head off nuclear war, create social safety nets that serve our very worthy elderly populations, all while offering true leadership in civil rights, such as the right to vote, the right to free speech, the right to defend oneself and the right of all people to be practice their religious faiths, regardless of what those faiths may be. It seems to most pundits, intellectuals, scientists, teachers, and even those rare honest politicians, that a handful of ‘visionaries’ wish to take this country backwards, taking away women’s rights to their own bodies?, and down the road of ‘free market capitalism’, a market that has DEvolved into a casino parlor of shady speculators, true vultures, fashioning themselves as players, buying and selling political operatives who call themselves congressman and Senators, creating false bubbles, jacked up oil prices/food prices/you name it, as the rigged monopolies go on unabated and undetected by an ignorant, mostly not their fault, public, who is brainwashed 24/7/365 by the likes of a Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly or Sean Hannity… Rob Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in prison yesterday, charged with corruption, again, begging the query, ‘what about the rest of them up on Capitol Hill, and all of the banking executives on Wall Street who almost took this country down, all while labeling it’s investors and 99 percent of Americans as Muppets?’. To quote the Dean of Journalism Mr. Keith Olbermann, host of “Countdown, with Keith Olbermann”, only on Current TV, airing every week night at 8 eastern, and I only slightly paraphrase here, “…if the republicans are looking for an exit, good luck in finding one…”. You cannot have it both ways, you cannot ignore FACTS even if they contradict your position, no matter how much you try and pull the wool over the ‘American People’s’ (credit Mitch McConnell, R-KY) eyes. Case in point, our good friend Senator James Inhofe from the great state of Oklahoma. In addition to his fine flying skills, the Senator has a unique talent of selling ice to Eskimos, what ice is still left, telling a national audience on the ‘Rachel Maddow Show’, week nights at 9, only on MSNBC, just last night, his whole ‘theory’ on ‘the hoax’ that is global warming. I was so happy to see the Senator–who also told Rachel the ‘hippy, left wingers’ who watch and support your show, you know who you are, have ‘way more money’ in this ‘global warming hoax thing’, putting all sorts of cash, you know from the mighty coffers of Greenpeace and the like by way of lying advertisements claiming the burning of fossil fuels is not increasing earth’s overall temperature, compared to the global oil conglomerates who will spend, with Koch Brothers/GPS-Crossroads/U.S. Chamber of Commerce/America Futures, etc., over 1.6 BILLION on the Presidential, I mean hijack attempt of our democracy on November 2nd of this year, monies invested so as to decimate ANY regulations on the CAUSE of the EFFECT called GLOBAL WARMING, you moron!–as I just wrote about him yesterday and was so pleased that he has stubbornly held on to his position that the melting of the ice all over the world is not only ‘not happening’ (apparently Satellite images SHOWING that ice melting right before our eyes is an illusion as well), but the 97 percent of climatologists on the planet, alive and well today, don’t exist either, stating that far more scientists, who apparently live with James and his imaginary friend, the giant rabbit named “Harvey”, ‘don’t buy into this liberal, long haired hippy, tree huggin, filthy, latte sippin’, fancy book learnin’, subway ridin’, east coast media elite scumbag theory that the earth is warming due to mankind’s continued overuse and abuse of fossil fuels, spewing millions of tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere everyday, creating a giant greenhouse effect that traps the sun’s solar rays in said atmosphere, warming the earth’s surface temperatures, especially in the polar regions, causing giant ice sheets, millenniums old, along with glaciers, the North Pole and Antarctica to vanish right before our very eyes, causing, of course, the seas to rise exponentially. The added energy in our atmosphere, as well as the added water, creates stronger and stronger storms, as evidenced by the tornadoes across the Midwest and South a week or so ago, not to mention creating more severe droughts, wild fires, and the TRAGIC EXTINCTION of thousands of species of plants and animals (how far back can man be?) and upsetting the natural order of life on the planet as we once knew it–all for the ‘glory’ of the oil and gas industry, an industry that is treated more like royalty than all the Kings and Queens in the history of civilized man combined. We are proud of you James, please come on down to seacapecod.net and grant US an interview, for the more you open your mouth, the more ammunition WE have to shoot your feeble, ridiculous, warped arguments down. WE WILL bring some LIGHT to the situation before it is too late. Have a nice day and week end folks, steering clear of those horrible wooden nickles thrown about by FOX NEWS…being ever mindful that viewing any portion of say ‘Fox & Friends’ may cause nose bleeds, headaches, blindness, nausea, hallucinations, paranoia, dementia, vertigo, and grandiosity–as it and ‘Clear Channel’ attempt to brainwash many of the good folks in this country that the tooth fairy, the Easter bunny and the Heritage Foundation are real and in the last example, ‘there’ for the average ‘Fox’ viewer. Viewers who never will be part of that elite .001 percent, only used by them to keep electing plutocratic puppets and polluters into office, perpetually voting against their own best interests… PRESERVE THE WILDERNESS! Peace~M
