More Bases More Bombs More War
The building of new military bases must end. The unnecessary expansion of U.S. military presence throughout the world is bankrupting our economy, incriminating each and every American citizen in horrifying war crimes, risking World War III, and ultimately will collapse the nation and take down the great American experiment.

Let’s Try To Figure This Out
The bulk of climate change denial studies is generated by bought-and-paid-for lackeys who WORK FOR THE FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY! While it represents only 3% of the scientific publications on this critical topic, the PR campaign by giant oil, gas, and coal corporations has been highly effective, so the public remains evenly split. Even for those who are concerned about the threat of climate change to civilization, the self-serving deceptions by participants in the recent COP21 fiasco produce a luster of false hope and delusion. Fortunately, this fools no one who is really paying attention. Unfortunately, it portends bleak prospects for any massive substantial reform of our economic and environmental policies. Coordinated disinformation and willful denial are a devastating combination. Continue reading
Imagine
John Lennon’s song is a landmark achievement.

Press Release: National Council on Political Correctness
The cultivation of sodomy and other same-sex perversions is all around us. Most frighteningly, it is taking place right in our schools, subverting the innocent minds of our vulnerable youth. This press release from the National Council on Political Correctness offers some hope that this problem is being tackled with a thorough and aggressive “cleansing” of our culture, making it clean and wholesome again in the eyes of God. Continue reading
War Games
Just so you know, while you’re having all sorts of innocent fun during the holiday season, playing Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble, Candyland and Boggle, here we have the lethal game our crazed leadership is playing. But this particular game is not fun for the whole family. War games will mean fewer members of your family to enjoy the holiday season next year. Continue reading

War Criminal as Stand-Up Comedian
I’ve decided I should be a proper patriot and make a point of respecting Mr. Obama and honoring his service as our president to our country and the world. After all, he’s the best smart-ass money can buy. As war criminals go, the guy can sure can yuk it up! Continue reading
The Post-Feminist Apocalypse
The ideal of femininity and fullest expression of potential for the female gender is always evolving, as it adapts to the unfolding realities of our world. Girls want to have fun, yes. But they’ve learned to stand their ground. Continue reading

Americans . . . GET A GRIP!
The War On Terrorism is a fraud. We are paying trillions of dollars to be frightened out of our minds by peddlers of fear, pimps for profiteering defense contractors. Continue reading →
