Reports are flooding out of China today that the cute little 5 year old girl who sang the Chinese anthem during the Opening Ceremonies was only lip-synching. The actual singer was a 7 year old girl, but because she had chubby cheeks and uneven teeth, she was not considered pretty enough to be on TV.
And the West is just outraged by this. Outraged!
And I'm like... you hypocritial pieces of sh*t!
Try to become a cheerleader in any school in the USA, from Podunk High to the swankiest of the swank. If you're not beautiful, thin and sleek, you'd be laughed off the tryout stage. And if someone did give you a chance to become a cheerleader, you'd be laughed off the field by the beer-soaked audience that only want to see pretty girls jumping around.
Anyone watch the women's beach volleyball at these Olympics. Tall, beautiful women (plain women learn very early not to push themselves forward, no one wants to see them), wearing the skimpiest of bikini bottoms to make sure the guys in the audience and TV can get a good look. If there was any competitive advantage to wearing such skimpy outfits, you know the guy's be wearing the same stuff, but do they? Of course not. Long shorts and t-shirts. But at least they are "muscle" shirts so the women in the audience can get a look at their arms...
What kind of reality shows do we get here in the USA? Women subjecting themselves to plastic surgery in order to look beautiful, over and over again because all it needs is for one guy to say they don't look perfect and back under the knife they go..."How TO Look GOod Naked" in which lots of overweight women are given validation for their lives and appearances by a gay guy, well, at least that's better than having to get validation for your existence from a straight guy...
This little Chinese incident has only brought home what should be clear to everyone in the world - women are under fire. THey are viewed everywhere as little more than sex objects. Oh, they have more freedom in the West, but that's just a bandaid over the constant brainwashing they get to be everything a man wants them to be...
And I would really, really, really like to know what is being done to find Afghan athlete Mehbooba Andyar. Afghanistan's only female athlete who was to have gone to the Olympic games. Despite the fact that she wears clothing from head to toe and that stupid burhka on her head, fundamentalist muslims in Afghanistan still called her a whore and a disgrace to Islam.
She disappeared in July from her training facility, and what I want to know is, why isn't the entire Olympics organization trying to find this woman? Is anyone trying to find her?
And doesn't this just point out the evil of fundamental Islam, that women who simply want to run and jump and feel like human beings can be kidnapped, probably raped, and murdered, and no one cares because, after all, they're just women?

John Edwards admits he had an affair
A couple of weeks ago, I blogged here about the stupidity of John Edwards, or any politician, having an affair in this day and age. With all the scrutiny by reporters, people with cellphones, etc. etc, how in the world do these politicians think they can get away with it?
Well, Bill Clinton got away with it, but I dont' doubt that he torpedoed his wife's chances of getting elected president. (Well...not him... but her acceptance of his actions rather than divorcing him after it happened the 3rd or 4th time.)
Now we've got Edwards, who admits lying repeatedly when he said he wasn't having an affair, but he denies that his mistress' child is his.
"The timing of the birth isn't right for it to be mine," he says.
My question is this, "What do you mean, the timing isn't right? Shouldn't it be, 'that baby isn't mine because I wore a condom because I did not want to father a child out of wedlock.'" Wouldn't that make more sense? Show a bit more intelligence? Or even better --- that child isn't mine because I had a vasectomy, so that I could cheat on my wife with lots of women, but never have to risk getting her pregnant.
But politicians are stupid. That's all there is to it.
His wife is dying of cancer. I'm sure she just feels great to know that he was cheating on her while she was enduring chemo. Or perhaps she thinks it's okay... "Well, I couldn't give him any so he got his sex elsewhere." Frankly - most men have affairs and that's why they have it.
So Edwards might not be a scumbag because he had an affair - but he's a scumbag for lying about it.
Will his political career end on this note? Probably not.... there's lots of crooked politicians still voted into office by idiot voters.... which is why this country is in the mess it is in.
On the other hand, there's no reason at all for Sean Hannity to be playing clips of Edwards and his ill wife and be all smug about it. No need to rub the wife's face in it even more than Edwards did.

This and That
What are the duties of a doorman? To open the door for the guests of a hotel, or the residents of an apartment house. To summon cabs. To help with luggage (for which they probably get tipped.) I would have thought that a doorman would make minimum wage, but it turns out that that's not so. At least one doorman makes $40,000 a year.
Doorman who won $5M, said he'd stay at job gets ax
Who knew doormen had a Union? That's probably why they make $40,000 a year for doing very little work. And the guy referenced in the story above wins $5 million, and can't think of anything better to do with his life than to continue to open doors for people?
Then there's the case of a teen hunter who killed a woman hiker because he thought she was a bear. Now, I don't have a problem with hunters, but it seems to me that hunters are not supposed to be hunting anywhere near where people, such as hikers or bikers,are gathered! And this murder - yes, murder - took place on the Sauk County Trail.
So this kid, because he's a teen, probably won't go to jail at all. And his name won't be released. Presumably the woman's family will file a wrongful death suit againt the boy involved, and hopefully he'll learn that you don't go shooting animals until you absolutely know what you're firing at.
And finally, if you're going to have an affair, don't get drunk! Jesus this woman was stupid.
Judge censured for having sex with lawyer
Mark you - the judge was a woman. This judge got drunk at a party, and revealed she'd had sex with a lawyer. How are her peers supposed to have any respect for her after that? Even if the case had been reversed and it would have been a male judge, he still would have been an idiot... although much more likely to have been fondly called a "swordsman" by his fellow judges for his sexual prowess...

Obama - the Dan Quayle of today's generation, with a difference
Dan Quayle was ridiculed out of the Presidential race because he spelled potato wrong... yet Obama continually makes foolish statements and he's still in the race for the Presidency.
Obama believes that if everyone inflated their tires and had regular tuneups, they would "save" as much gas as could be drilled out of American deposits.
Here's the problem with gas.
China has 6 billion people, and they're gradually getting cars. They're going to buy gas for those cars, and where are they going to get it? From countries that hate us. Once China's gas purchasing goes up, the Arabs and Venezuela won't need to sell oil to us to make money.
And once they don't need to sell it to us, they won't.
So our entire economy will grind to a halt.
Then, we'll start drilling on our own resources, you may be sure. And when we start drilling, we'll have to wait 10 years for those benefits, and at the end of those 10 years, we'll be the third world country and China will be in economic charge of the world...

Why are Men (and Women) So Stupid???
The news today is all over John Edwards, who apparently has a mistress and a "love" child.
In one sense, that's not unusual. Tons of men, in particular athletes, have kids out of wedlock because they can't be bothered to wear a condom and think it's the women's role to "protect" herself against getting pregnant, and some women who have sex with wealthy men frankly want to get pregnant so they can make money out of the guy.
But politicians are supposed to be smart, aren't they? Politicians must realize - at least since Bill Clinton - that they are under scrutiny by the press and no quarter will be given (although Democrats seem to get away with things more often than Republicans, when it comes to press coverage.)
Yet politician John Edwards not only had a mistress, he also got her pregnant!
Jesus Christ, male politicians! If you're going to have affairs, don't trust condoms, don't trust the woman and her promises that she uses birth control. Get a vasectomy for God's sake!
Otherwise, you too, eventually, will end up like John Edwards.

Is it the NBA or the NFL? No, it's Congress!
Well, well, well...
I found this quiz on another site and thought I'd share it here. What can I say... it was "in print" so I believed it. The moreso because I don't have a high opinion of politicians.
So I posted it here.... then I decided to go see where it came from to see the corrobative details.
But there are none.
This "quiz" is 10 years old.
http://www.snopes.com/politics/crime/congress.asp
Is It NBA Or NFL?
36
have been accused of spousal abuse
7
have been arrested for fraud
19
have been accused of writing bad checks
117
have directly or indirectly
bankrupted at least 2 businesses
3
have done time for assault
71,
repeat
71 cannot
get a credit card due to bad credit
14
have been arrested on drug-related charges
8
have been arrested for shoplifting
21
currently
are defendants in lawsuits, and
84
have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year
Can you guess which organization this is?
Give up yet? . . Scroll down,
Neither,
it's the 435 members of the
United States Congress
_____________________
The point I'm making is that I think most people who see these types of "quizzes" distributed - with no authors name, no dates on them, no links so people can go see the proof for themselves - are all too often believed. It doesn't even occur to people to verify the facts for themselves - whether it be about politicians, or the actors and actresses whose doings so many people are obsessed over...
On the other hand...it certainly wouldn't surprise me to find out that a goodly percentage of our 435 members of congress did have some of those charges hanging over them... after all the vast majority of them are lawyers....

Rush Limbaugh hypocritical again
I didn't listen to the Rush Limbaugh show today, but I checked his website to see the highlights.
And one of the headlines, in his stack of stuff, was:
Now isn't that just disgusting? Rush Limbaugh constantly complains that he's quoted out of context, or paraphrased in order to be made to look bad... but of course he has no problem doing that to other people on his show.
To "wet yourself," is a phrase which makes people think that you've lost control of your bladder and urinated, and that's what Limbaugh is trying to make people think Whoopi did. But, no... turns out all she did was spill her water.
Hopefully Whoopi will visit Limbaugh in his tiny little studio (grandiosely called his "southern commmand") and spill some hot coffee all over him, see how he likes it.
And one of the headlines, in his stack of stuff, was:
Story #1: Michelle Obama Causes Whoopi to Wet Herself
RUSH: Michelle (My Belle) Obama was on The View today, and Whoopi Goldberg wet herself. I am not making this up. Whoopi got so excited, she wet herself. "Rush, what can you possibly mean?" Very simple, ladies and gentlemen. She got so excited she spilled her drink cup all over herself. Now, watching replay highlights, let me check the audio sound bite roster. I'm not sure we have any; I'm not sure I want any. Let's see what we have here. Doesn't look like it. I'll betcha Cookie's in the process of breaking some down if she said anything interesting.
