So they cheat, plunder and steal, every chance they get.
Again, on Facebook, someone had posted this blog from Daily Kos: BREAKING: Leaked Rove email singles out Daily Kos http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/08/27/1010778/-BREAKING-Leaked-Rove-email-singles-out-Daily-Kos#comments
it was dated August 27, 2011, so it isn't so BREAKING but that didn't diminish it's informative content. Internet bloggers (especially from the right-wing) are adamant on being the first to report something that they often get it entirely wrong, so date isn't important. The email starts out with an...
CONFIDENTIAL -- EYES ONLY - Hello Gang,
innocent enough but wait until you read more...
I have to admit I do not like the Republican Party and I can't understand why anyone who isn't either wealthy or religiously indoctrinated could ever believe in such a deceitful organization, but my opinion doesn't matter. What does matter is that the corrupt people who are at the top of this whitecolor ruffian syndicate must be exposed. The below video was my small contribution of yanking off yet another scab to reveal the despicable innards of the GOP/TP. When I say small it's an understatement. I posted this video October 2011 and to date it's gotten 93 views. Please help me out on this and pass it around, our freedom may depend upon it. thinkingblue

Have you ever noticed how the GOP TEA PARTY'S nasty comments (against liberals and democrats) are EVERYWHERE on the Internet? They spread their hate like they butter their bread. Well, Thom Hartmann has discovered what it's all about, GUERILLA WARFARE. Unfortunately, Hartmann's video had been deleted from youtube (most likely due to Tea Party requests) but I found this film that is the real McCoy, about what the GOP and its TEA PARTY are up to, and it ain't nice. What else can you expect from these dishonorable, corrupt people who want to win at any cost?
It's NOT millions of individual Tea Partiers commenting on Liberal Links, it's only a handful spreading their GOP/TP hatred via comments upon millions of Liberal websites. Honesty and integrity is not in their vocabulary, try to imagine an honest Karl Rove. They don't possess scruples, so they try to cheat their way into the winning circle. They are an abominable lot and if they manage to win we are all in for another BIG FALL. Probably worse than the one we took in the 8 years of George W Bush.
Some of the rhetoric posted on, anything they (GOP/TP) deem as liberal, is so childlike it's amazing that anyone could hoodwinked by it. I put a video on thethinkingblue youtube channel, highlighting these unscrupulous maneuvers... The GOP has no integrity; they are unbelievably unprincipled. The strangest thing about all this is, they seem to be very proud of it. The nastier the better is their motto.

The news of George Zimmerman’s arrest and charges of Second Degree murder for the shooting of Trayvon Martin brought much-needed closure to Trayvon’s family, protestors, and to the calm and rational citizens following this tragedy closely. But not to the rabid racists at Fox Nation.
Now, the racial overtones of the Trayvon Martin case has unleashed a whole new level of racism not seen since lynchings in the South. And if there’s anything worse that putrid racism, it’s grammatically incorrect putrid racism.The news of George Zimmerman’s arrest and charges of Second Degree murder for... more

Ohio State’s University Police are investigating after someone spray-painted “Long Live Zimmerman” on the campus’ black cultural center.
University newspaper The Lantern reported that the racially-charged graffiti was apparently left Wednesday night or early Thursday morning on the Hale Hall building, which houses the Frank W. Hale Jr. Black Cultural Center. The message is thought to be in support of George Zimmerman, a Florida neighborhood watchmen who admitted to the February killing of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed African-American teen.
“Ignorance is bliss,” Frank W. Hale Black Cultural Center Executive Director Larry Williamson told 10TV. “We want the person brought to trial, caught. We want to make sure these kinds of things don’t happen.”
Ohio State University President E. Gordon Gee insisted in a statement that police were “vigorously investigating the incident.”
“Early this morning, I learned of a racially charged act of vandalism at our Frank W. Hale Jr. Black Cultural Center,” Gee said. “Let me be very clear: This is not who we are at Ohio State. Racism will not be tolerated on our campus.”
The graffiti has since been power-washed from the building. Williamson said that security would also be increased in that area of campus.
It was not immediately clear if the police had any suspects or if surveillance cameras monitored the area. MORE AT LINK BELOW:

So where does all America's bigotry come from? It’s an age old question that no one (especially experts) seems to have a strong enough desire to answer. (or just maybe there is no acceptable answer) Of course we know human beings have the capacity to detest one another to the point of wanting to erase certain individuals or groups from existence. Many feel a satisfaction in hatred and actually enjoy it. It is well, sort of a release valve (through rationalizing) for the inadequacies they mentally experience. They feel abused within the system they live and need scapegoats to blame all this hurt upon. Also they endure inferiority and exhibiting intolerant behavior, gives them someone to look down on; which in return gives them a feeling of EXALTATION.
As long as we have the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Michael Savage and Ann Coulter et.al, who espouse bigotry and hate, over the airwaves; processing and editing their listeners and viewers thoughts for them, there will forever be repulsive occurrences like this. I wish we could find a cure because it is just like a cancer that will, slowly and eventually destroy the whole civilized system we (all of us) live in.
Oddly, that appears to be exactly what the far right-wing long for.

PS: BTW, Homeschooling also adds quite a bit of hate and fear to the mix… (PITY THE LITTLE CHILDREN WHO LEARN (from their parents) TO BE AFRAID TO LIVE.)
EXCERPTS: Homeschooling has become so popular with fundamentalist Christians because, “there is an atmosphere of real terror among some evangelicals. They are horrified by the fact that Obama is president, and they see the New Atheist movement as a vocal, in-your-face threat. Plus, they are obsessed with the End Times, and believe that the Apocalypse could happen any day now...They see a demon on every corner.
“We homeschooled because we wanted to protect our children from what we viewed as the total secularization of America. We listened to people like Rush Limbaugh, who told us that America was in the clutches of evil liberal feminist atheists.”
Evil LIBERALS, FEMINISTS and ATHEISTS, Oh My!!!
Ignorance is NOT bliss but for hate-mongers like Rush Limbaugh, it pays off BIG$$$$$$

I’m listing just a few proofs today, of why we all now know, beyond a shadow of doubt, that the Republican Party has lost its marbles and gone completely off its rocker. This is just the tip of the iceberg, there have been many more ridiculous hits to common sense and reality perpetrated by these fools but one can only consume a little at a time because all at once bombardment would result in vomiting your guts out. These are examples I had come across inside of an hour or two. Hold on to your proverbial hats, thou are in, for a bit of sh*t, from thee bull. thinkingblue

It's tempting for sure, to want to go up to this schmuck’s car and scrape off his bumper sticker (and along with it fragments of car paint) BUT then we (who think) would be no better than they are; so filled with hate and bigotry. I know they can't help it because that's the way they were raised but that doesn't excuse it.
It's sad, it's pathetic but dismally, I fear, BIGOTRY will always be with us, especially when there are those, (i.e. LIMBAUGH, FOX NEWS) who make millions feeding it to their minions (DITTOHEADS). thinkingblue.

I couldn't resist posting this next article on Human Longevity across the globe, in today’s Yahoo News. 'Viva Italia' - "Long live Italy!" who comes in 10th, whereas the United States ranks only 50th on the CIA's life expectancy list. Italy's longevity is attributed to their diet of Yummy. It appears, in order to achieve, the brass ring of RIPE OLD AGE; you need to live in a country whose inhabitants share, a good diet, universal health care and/or WEALTH. Hmmm, I wonder why the good ole US-of-A only ranks 50th (as if I didn’t know). Thanks GOP for all you do (fighting against universal healthcare, achieving personhood for corporations, so that money is speech and proposing tax rates that would certainly make "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer") that makes sure we, the 99%, get many years shaved from our existence. thinkingblue
Top 10 Hotspots for Human Longevity
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/top-10-hotspots-human-longevity-165933132.html
In 1513, Spanish conquistador Juan Ponce de León set sail in search of Bimini, a mythical land said to house a spring that restored youth to anyone who drank from it. After scouring the Caribbean and Florida, he returned empty-handed, and the Fountain of Youth remained undiscovered. Perhaps he was just looking in the wrong place.
As part of their data collection for the World Factbook, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) combs through death certificates, recording race, gender, cause of death, and other factors to estimate the life expectancy of a nation's entire population. Calculating the average life expectancy of the world's total population at 67.59 years, the CIA has determined which societies live longer.
[See: 11 Health Habits That Will Help You Live to 100]
In the United states, average life expectancy is 78.49 years, well above the world's norm. Many experts attribute this to ongoing medical developments, which have dealt with conditions that used to mow us down early. Meanwhile, nations without advanced medical care report a much shorter life expectancy. For instance, citizens of the Republic of Chad in central Africa are only expected to live until their late 40s.
Despite the fact that the average American lives into his or her late 70s, the United States ranks 50th on the CIA's life expectancy list. According to the World Factbook, these 10 nations seem to have discovered the secret to longevity--no magical spring water required.
10. Italy
Average Life Expectancy: 81.86 years
Italians live an average of 3.37 years longer than Americans. Many experts draw a connection between their longevity and diet--which is more than just pasta, meat, and cheese. The Mediterranean diet is credited with lowering the risk for all sorts of diseases. The antioxidants found in olive oil and red wine--two key features of an Italian meal--can improve cholesterol, prevent blood clots, and stave off heart disease, according to the American Heart Association. Italians also rely on spices like basil, oregano, and garlic to flavor their cuisine, while Americans depend heavily on salt. As such, Italians improve their odds against high blood pressure and stroke. MORE HERE http://finance.yahoo.com/news/top-10-hotspots-human-longevity-165933132.html

In just 40 years from now, global food demand could double with potentially devastating consequences for planet Earth, a top eco professor has warned.
“Agriculture’s greenhouse gas emissions could double by 2050 if current trends in global food production continue,” said David Tilman, who is Regents Professor of Ecology in the University of Minnesota's College of Biological Sciences.
“Global agriculture already accounts for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions,” he added.
According to the prof, food production on that scale could massively inflate levels of carbon dioxide and nitrogen in the environment.
The end result could lead to the extinction of numerous species because of the demand for more land for farmers to grow the food needed, Tilman cautioned. MORE HERE http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/11/22/food_demand_to_double_study_university_of_minnesota/

CNN commentator Jack Cafferty railed against the United States’ ongoing involvement in Afghanistan following the alleged murder of 16 Afghan civilians by a rogue U.S. soldier.
“How much is enough?” he said Tuesday. “The United States has been in Afghanistan for more than ten years. And President Obama insists we will remain in Afghanistan until the end of 2014. Why? What will be accomplished by staying in that godforsaken hellhole for another 20 months that hasn’t been accomplished in 10 and a half years?”
He noted that recent events, including the burning of Qurans and desecration of Taliban corpses, had inflamed hatred against Americans in Afghanistan.
“Yet the Obama White House is out with a statement insisting that none of this will deter us from our mission, which is what exactly?” Cafferty continued. “I have no idea what the hell we’re doing there anymore. Isn’t Osama bin Laden dead?”
He cynically predicted Obama would only hasten withdrawal from Afghanistan if he thought staying there would imperil his re-election campaign.
“Why don’t the American people have anything to say about what we’re doing?” Cafferty added. “We have no voice in any of this stuff any more. They go into Iraq, they go into Afghanistan, they might go into Iran. We got nothing. We’re just kept in the dark and the government does whatever the hell it feels like doing, or preferably what it is being told to do by the people who pay the politicians’ bills. Remember that warning from Dwight Eisenhower about the military-industrial complex? It’s got this country by the throat.”

Despite the whining and crying you are hearing and reading from conservative commentators (many of whom you see on this website, one of whom especially seems to have created something of a cottage industry out of the controversy) if you're looking for someone to blame for the fact that many advertisers would rather rub a dead skunk on their faces than be caught advertising their products or services on Rush Limbaugh's daily three hour hate-a-thon, blame that old, marxist, communist, facist, anti-freedom enemy of all things good and decent.

Nearly 60 nations are governed by the Jewish Anti-Defamation League’s hate crime laws. In all of them except America, ADL’s definition of a hate crime is to publicly "express hatred or contempt against members of an identifiable group.”
This perfectly describes Jewish Disney/ABC’s new sitcom Good Christian Bitches. (GCB) Few Christians would deny it holds up our "identifiable group" to contempt. Disney/ABC is headed by Robert Iger, Jewish. GCB’s executive producer is Darren Star, a Jewish homosexual. It is directed by Alan Poul, also a Jewish homosexual and is produced by Aaron Kaplan, Jewish.
I watched the first episode and found this sitcom fulfills all of ADL’s criteria of a hate crime: it is motivated by bias against Christianity. It negatively stereotypes Christians. It expresses intolerance by portraying Bible-belt Christianity derisively. It marginalizes evangelical Christians as a group that is “other" than the mainstream: ridiculous and contemptible for its hypocrisy, crass materialism, vindictiveness and closet
'Good Christian Bitches' Expresses Hate
Here is a brief summary of what ADL should condemn as blatantly “hateful” content.
1. Christian Churches are Full of Gossip, Contention, Shallowness
2. Christians are Immoral
3. Christians are Materialistic
4. Christians Vindictive, Hypocritical, Persecutive
5. Christians Dishonest, Unethical in Business
6. Christians are only Hypocritically Reverent
7. Sinners are more Decent than Christians
Does 'Good Christian Bitches' Qualify as a Hate Crime?
All this provides much more than is necessary in hate law countries to convict Disney/ABC for inciting hatred and contempt for an identifiable group. But such protection is not provided for Christians anywhere under ADL hate laws.Nearly 60 nations are governed by the Jewish Anti-Defamation League’s hate crime... more

Over the years, of blogging, (I started my thinkingblue.blogspot in 2004, after Dubya Bush won a second term. His win, after PROVING he was the worst president the USA has ever had, threw me into a feeling that I was living in LA LA LAND and needed something to help me stay focused. My blog did the trick.) During my search for injustices to write about, I came across an avalanche of Limbaugh’s nastiness; some so vile, I would create videos, in hope that others would take note that this man is poisonous to a free society. Oh yes, people did take note but mostly Limbaugh worshipers, defending their Limbaugh-God (BTHOM, how these people can feel a devotion to such a POS? (piece-of-shit)
After this latest sicko tactic of Limbaugh’s, I thought I would gather the youtube videos I had made (in vain, because the jerk kept right on easing-on-down his contemptible road and actually receiving lucrative rewards for vomiting on society) and put them in one place to share. Let’s hope that old Limbaugh has met his WATERLOO and will be FIRED. BUT DON’T HOLD YOUR BREATH… this man is powerful beyond reason. thinkingblue

Offensive Is Nothing New: Rush Limbaugh's 5 Worst Remarks
By Sarah Jaffe, AlterNet
Posted on March 6, 2012, Printed on March 6, 2012
http://www.alternet.org/story/154420/offensive_is_nothing_new%3A_rush_limbaugh%27s_5_worst_remarks
Has Rush Limbaugh finally gone too far?
Despite a notably insincere apology for calling Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke a “slut” and a “prostitute” for the crime of using birth control pills, Limbaugh is shedding advertisers like mad. As of Monday evening, nine companies—including AOL, the parent company of the Huffington Post-- have stopped buying time on Limbaugh's radio show, and at least a couple say they have severed ties with the program permanently.
Even Republican presidential candidates have issued tepid condemnations of Limbaugh's rant. Mitt Romney, whose private equity firm Bain Capital is one of the owners of Clear Channel – which owns and broadcasts Premiere Radio Networks, the company that syndicates Limbaugh's show -- told reporters, “I’ll just say this, which is, it’s not the language I would have used,” before quickly changing the subject back to Tuesday's primaries. Democrats quickly pounced on Romney's wimpy repudiation, but none of them bothered to point out the presidential candidate's profit motive in Rush's program.
But it's not like Rush doesn't have a history of saying incendiary, awful things and making personal attacks. Young women are clearly a favorite target of the right-wing shock jock, who's gone after three presidents' daughters and splashed enough racism, sexism, homophobia and just plain nastiness around the airwaves to offend just about anyone.
Now, it seems, Americans may finally have had enough. A Harris poll conducted last week found that Limbaugh is the least liked pundit in America. Meanwhile, progressive sites like Daily Kos and Media Matters are continuing to pressure Limbaugh's advertisers to defund his show, in a strategy that mirrors the one that took down Glenn Beck.
Limbaugh has long been the Right's on-air id, a person who will say all the horrible things other right-wingers might think in passing. Here, we look at five other moments when Rush crossed the line, but managed to salvage his reputation and his reported $40 million a year salary.
1. “Take the bone out of your nose and call me back!” MORE http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/154420
2. Picking on presidential daughters. MORE http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/154420
3. Donovan McNabb and the NFL. MORE http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/154420
4. Michael J. Fox. MORE http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/154420
5. Barack and Michelle Obama. MORE http://www.alternet.org/module/printversion/154420
So what is it about Sandra Fluke that seems to have finally pushed advertisers over the edge into abandoning Rush Limbaugh? We've seen that he has no problem making blatantly sexist, racist remarks, sexualizing children and critiquing them for their looks, or even mocking a man's illness. We can't be sure if the current of protest that swept the Web after Susan G. Komen pulled its funding from Planned Parenthood, followed by Republicans (and Catholic bishops) throwing a very public all-male temper tantrum over contraceptives and prohibiting Fluke's first attempted testimony is what's all landing on Rush, or if he's finally just said one too many vile things on air.
Either way, we're happy to see the outrage finally hitting Rush where it hurts: in his wallet.Over the years, of blogging, (I started my thinkingblue.blogspot in 2004, after Dubya... more

This is a must read... not to be missed.
{{{EXCERPT FROM A MOTHER}}}I have written a couple comments about my daughter regarding this birth control issue. She is on birth control and has been for almost a year now- not for sexual activity and pregnancy prevention, but even if that were the case so what?!?! No, instead beantown girl suffers from menorrhagia and secondary dysmenorrhea. That is, since almost the time of her very first period, she bled so heavily and suffered such severe pain and cramping that she was rendered immobile for the first 2-3 days of menstruation. She would become so violently ill that she would miss at least 2 days of school each month. PMS for this poor child was so horrible- she would rage, cry and be so very depressed that the entire family would try anything to avoid being near her...
I pulled into the parking lot and saw that she was standing inside the doors at school, her head down and shoulders shaking- I thought she was laughing at something someone said or was looking at her phone reading something funny. I honked and waived to motion her out, not sure if she saw me. She never looked up, just pushed open the door and practically ran to the car. She flung open the door and I started to say something about the wind and rain, but stopped mid sentence because of the look on my child's face! She was sobbing, face streaked with tears, cheeks red and eyes so swollen I could hardly see her beautiful brown eyes- I slammed the car into park right in the middle of the parking lot and asked her what was wrong.
Apparently I'm a slut- a whore- a bitch who is screwing every guy in school!
She was speaking but it wasn't making sense- who said this? What are you talking about? For a minute we were talking over each other and finally I said just get in the car and tell me what is going on! She handed me a wrinkled piece of paper. I could tell it had been opened and closed, folded and unfolded wadded up and straightened out so many times it almost looked like it was going to fall apart in my hands.
Little miss innocent, huh? Whatever slut- you take birth control pills so you can f*&# every guy in school! What a joke- u are nothin but a whore! Pretty bad when some guy on the radio who isn't afraid to tell the truth has to break it down for everybody- if u on the Pill u are nothing but a skank ass ho! My mom said girls on the pill are tramps who just wanna get laid and don't care about nothin- is that how u are?
I thought I was going to throw up! I was crying- crying for my sweet daughter who was in a puddle on the front seat of my car, crying because I was so angry I didn't know what to do first! I drove home with one arm around my daughter and one hand on the wheel; I was saying things but for the life of me I can't remember any of what I said now. I just wanted to take the pain away from my child! I wanted to make her stop crying, wanted to erase all the horrible pain that she was feeling.This is a must read... not to be missed.

Andrew Breitbart
1969 - 2012
---
Mr. Andrew Breibart is gone but he won’t be forgotten. He
will be long remembered for his bigotry and lies; and for
his hatred towards those he deemed unfit.
I feel sorrow for his mother’s loss but also I feel anger at
how she apparently raised him. If I had
a son who displayed such disrespect for others by using
character assassination as a weapon to obliterate people
like Shirley Sherrod, and organizations’ like ACORN, while
feeling a sense of victory, upon their ruin, I would feel
DEEP SHAME.
In essence, people like Sherrod and the hard workers at
ACORN were only the tip of the iceberg of the nasty deeds
perpetrated by Breitbart upon his fellow human beings.
His legacy will exhibit a long list of vile attempts to
annihilate reputations of those who did not happen to fit
into his cold-hearted dogmatism.
I know there are some that shared his warped sense of
‘who is’ and ‘who is not’ valuable in our society and they
will miss him,
but I am not one of them.
Right now the Internet is ablaze with his death.
The right-wing is calling him an angel and a warrior and is
strongly criticizing the left for acting gleeful over his death
but I just came across something that Breitbart had written
after the death of Sen. Edward Kennedy:
{{After Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts died in
2009, Breitbart tweeted, "Rest in Chappaquiddick" and
called him "a special pile of human excrement."
When critics questioned his tone, he tweeted they "missed
my best ones!"}}
Now that's nasty but it also is typical Breitbart.
thinkingblue
~~~~~~~~~~
Some thoughts from David Frum at the Daily Beast. “Breitbart reinvented the culture war and made it more about personalities than issues. Along the way, he got some stories right (Anthony Weiner) and some wrong (Shirley Sherrod), but he didn't care either way. Just as all is fair in a shooting war, so manipulation and deception are legitimate tools in a culture war. Breitbart used those tools without qualm or regret, and he inspired a cohort of young conservative journalists to do likewise."
All of which leads Frum to conclude that Breitbart's legacy is a "poisonous" one. He achieved success through a "giddy disdain for truth and fairness" and his politics were "inflamed by rage and devoid of ideas." He was a public figure and should be judged by his public actions, even if "the obituary cannot be pleasant reading."

In a discussion about social issues, regular O’Reilly guest Bernie Goldberg condemned “the bigotry on the right” for attacking Ellen DeGeneres’ and the LGBT community.
“Reasonable people may disagree on gay marriage, that’s fine,” Goldberg said. “But to call on someone’s dismissal to be fired, to lose her job, because she’s gay, is bigotry. And I don’t care how many people listening to us right now don’t like that, it’s bigotry.”
But O’Reilly felt later on that another group received far more animosity throughout the nation.
“The bigotry against pro-life people is I think way more than the bigotry against gay people,” he said. “Particularly in the media because the media supports gay people in this country.”

I hear this constant bitching about the assault on Religion here in the United States. When in fact it's the Religious assault on the rest of us is the problem. If you want to believe in the invisible Man Or Woman in the Sky thats your private right to do. Give me a break there has never been an assault on Religion in the schools, because there has never been the right to pray in school. You can't make this shit up, always with the hating of Gays and other Religions has slowly eroded your believers away from the Church. Didn't Jesus say to pray in private and keep it to yourself? All though Birth Control wasn't even mentioned in the Bible, you have to attack Planed Parenthood relentlessly. I get it, you don't favor ABORTION, then don't get an abortion. In fact only 3% of Planed Parenthood's business is abortion, paid for in donations not government funds. Jesus H Christ stay the hell out of everyones business, the recent assault by the Breast Cancer Organization Susan B Komen (On Planed Parenthood) is more proof of the ever creeping exhibit of Religion on our society. Then there is that Church from Kansas that loves to show up and protest against Homosexual's and dead Soldiers Funerals, can't you see how narrow minded that is? A Soldier that died defending your Religious FREEDOM, and you want to make a mockery of his or hers funeral? You people are absolutely NUTS! There is NO ASSAULT on your Religion, your preoccupation with what goes on in other people bedrooms is to say the least retarded!I hear this constant bitching about the assault on Religion here in the United States.... more
