Fuck Em!

This corp shit is amazing. If you bank with these fucks I'd recommend you tell them to eat shit and pull your money out.

Matthew Shinnick dropped by a Bank of America branch in San Francisco to make sure a check he was about to deposit wasn't fraudulent. The teller found that the check was fraudulent and told the manager, who then had Shinnick thrown in jail.

One In Turn Becomes Another

So Rummy resigns. All around is wide eyed giddiness. I find it very depressing. Not to see this fuck go (now torture and illegal detentions can remain secret where they belong) but to see the Democrats celebrate this symbolic shift of power. I think we are celebrating how pretty the silverware is on the Titanic.

Kaos3!

This thing looks sweet! I have the old one and it's pretty damn cool, but the new features alone may be enough for me to plunk down the 4 bills.

God Retort

So I got this email responding to my "God on Money" post a week ago but didnt see it. I know it's kind of silly to take the bait, but hell, someone has to pipe up once in a while.

The phrase on the dollar is not an endorsement of God or church. It’s a symbol, a symbolic phrase of a value. A value that American freedoms are granted to us by a 'higher power'. Not a king or president. We commemorate that value in prose and coin it. We're not endorsing a religion, or requiring you to submit to Islam before you spend this buck.

As far as your atheistic self, how can Satan be an Atheist? If God can’t exist, neither can Satan. ...do you see the hypocritical lemming in your rant? Perhaps if Atheist like you continue to contribute beautiful things to mankind, in two hundred years or so your value will be praised.

We need God to keep us from thinking we're God.

My Responce...

Sigh. Here it comes. The great religious justifications. Your argument is disingenuous, as you very well know the word "God" when used in the United States is heavily associated with the Judeo/Christian tradition. Even mild research will reveal the word God was placed on our money after an aggressive campaign of Christian groups in the 1950's.

As for your weak argument about "value". The word God has value only to those who believe in the concept of a (as you put it) "Higher Power". So what about the people who do not subscribe to the idea that a "Higher Power" even exists? What do we do? Do we have at accept the fact that people like you feel it's your obligation to trample on our rights as Americans? Isn't one of our Constitutions greatest qualities is it's mandate to protect the minority in America?

You ask "how can Satan be an Atheist?"

Well, considering my post does not even mention this aspect of Christianity, your question leads me to a new conclusion concerning our correspondence.

1. You incapable of engaging in a meaningful conversation concerning religion

2. You are most likely insane.

Have fun kneeling and talking to yourself pal.

Christ Loves Meth!

I wonder how high this useless hunk of human garbage was when Mr Dawkins called him to task?

Follow The Money

Ok, while this documentary is sloppy it does pose some very interesting questions concerning the use of power by our government. The unquestioning trust that our government requires of us should be one of the largest warning signs that we are on the wrong track as a nation. I am constantly amazed when I hear Republican and Democrats engaged in such violent wars of words. Each party is dancing, but what I wonder is who is playing the music they so expertly dance to? This documentary attempts to lift the veil.

De-God Your Cash!

This rules. If your an Atheist like me who finds the word God on your money not only annoying but also a flagrant violation of Church and State then this post will have you reeling in Godless joy. Just because witless Baboons from the 1950's found it meaningful to put God on our money doesn't mean I have to take it.

Brain Sucks Pt 2

Boy, We Sure Do Trust Our Goverments!

"A chef from New Zealand was not allowed to take his clearly-labelled meds on board by Qantas check-in staff, who cited the War on Moisture. The New Zealand Herald reports that 43-year old Tui Russell later had a severe diabetic attack mid-flight, fell into a coma, and was hospitalized for two weeks."

And This...

"In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law (1). It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C.331 -335) has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C.1385), helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush is seeking to undo those prohibitions."

Not to forget this:

"When President Bush last week signed the bill outlawing the torture of detainees, he quietly reserved the right to bypass the law under his powers as commander in chief."
