Far East Cynic

Only in America….

This post is loving dedicated to all those (Say Hi Curtis)-who along with others- believes that Tea Partiers are just plain folks who want to take their country back. Unmitigated selfshiness and stupidity is a form of “thuggery” too. The Republican party is now in the hands of spoiled children.

The money is out there……

And Allen West and his retarded Tea Party “friends” know it. Which explains why they have manufactured a budget crisis that need not exist: And that doesn’t even begin to account for the savings we could have by leaving Afghanistan and Iraq, immediately.

The organized campaign…….

“The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don’t have to waste your time voting.”- Charles Bukowski For those who take the time to research it,  several things about the Wisconsin governor’s battles with

The truth the poster child won’t tell you.

I went to body pump after work tonight. Angie, who is actually a very good instructor, decided that we all needed extra beatings in anticipation of the upcoming weekend. Suffice it to say I was dragging ass by the time we got to the pushups and crunches. They suck! I

Ow! Ow! Ow!

In at 7,  out at 8-what is wrong with this picture? And before someone asks, " How does this square with your statement, 'You like your company'? I do like my company-but like a girl from the Nana Plaza-sometimes you have to bend over to earn your bar fine. So

Heading back where it is really cold for a few days for work. I am expecting some long days at least at the start of the week. Driving to the hotel I was listening to an NPR show with Grover Norquist. He is the worthless bastard who came up with

Tradition holds that business likes a divided government, because nothing gets done.  They like that because it allows them to get away with murder   for stability and an environment they can plan to. So now that the

Fall weekend in the mountains

I have been trying to persuade the S.O. for this entire week that we need to head up into the mountains in Tennessee. She resisted it all week-till she called me up yesterday and said she wants to go. So off we go today- I had to put the details

Playing the tape to the end….

I despise the Tea Party-they represent to me a danger to the United States that is equal to any other the country has faced. A few million docile swine-being manipulated by some very unscrupluous men. They may not being wearing brown shirts physically-but they are of the same caliber of
