The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

About Being Gay and the Nasty Politics / Religion Today

Recently, a “bishop” told congregants of some church that those who vote for Barack Obama are “going to hell.”  There are many churches with bishops.  The Roman and Anglican (Episcopal) and the United Methodist (once called the Methodist Episcopal) all have bishops.

Let’s take note that sane religious groups do not make such statements.  But if we did, we certainly have plenty of reason to say, “don’t vote for Romney / Ryan or you will go to hell.”  The biggest reason is Paul Ryan, but there are plenty of reasons why Mitt Romney is evil.

Let’s take Mitt Romney.  He bullied gay people when in high school.  You like that kind of man for president?  A bully?  You do, huh?  You like that?  How about if I, as a gay man, bullied YOU because you, as a man, have sex with a woman – out of wedlock?  How about if I bullied YOU for not taking responsibility for your actions and just freely having sex with the “one who you are with?”  HOW ABOUT THAT? Why don’t I bully people like that?  Because of Jesus Christ.  Jesus Christ taught us to love our neighbor.  Jesus Christ taught us to do to one another as we would have done to ourselves.  I don’t know about you who actually bother to read this post, but I would not bully myself, so why would I bully another person?

Then there is Paul Ryan.  His worship of Ayn Rand makes him very evil.  At least those Roman Catholics who accept gay people are following the words of Christ:  love your neighbor and do unto others as you would have them do to you.  The pope rejects the true Christians, but would accept a congregant who follows the words … no WORSHIPS … an atheist anarchist who believes no one should take responsibility for his/he actions?  How can Paul Ryan have any conscience and attend a Roman Catholic Church?  How can the pope accept such a person, but would deny John Kerry the sacraments because he supports gay people?  John Kerry practices the true Christian religious beliefs.  Paul Ryan and countless other HYPOCRITES are evil creatures doing the will of the beast whose name is created by adding a “d” to the word “evil.”

Barack Obama does not go around ADVOCATING abortion, but accepts the fact that women have a choice.  Ayn  Rand ADVOCATED abortions.  Do people even realize this as they go to the polls in America?

But it’s being gay which impacts me.  My freedom and liberty could be curtailed, should a Republican administration take charge.  Does anyone even care enough to consider this?  I am a RESPONSIBLE gay man, unlike the homosexuality promoted by Ayn Rand – “do your own thing and don’t give a damn about those around you.”  “Love the one you’re with,” according to Ayn Rand.

Here I have spent a lifetime being careful to take responsibility for my actions.  And due to a stupid Jewish woman – an atheist – her followers could really bully me by using churches and universities like Palm Beach Atlantic U. to do their dirty work.  These irresponsible people who promote anarchy USE a bishop to tell his congregants to be self-righteous and judge a good man who has worked hard for the Middle Class for four years now.  Stupid suckers in America who buy this crap from a bunch of paranoid losers fearful that they might be gay.

It matters not that I have had to endure those who FORCE me, using the fear of societal “traditions,” into heterosexual relationships when I truly was always gay.  So, Mr. Rick Santorum, the devil himself, how did YOU lose your freedom and liberty?  Who removed that from you, … you SOB?  Who did that to you?  And the owner of Chick-fil-a… who removed YOUR freedom and liberty?  Did someone FORCE either of you bastards to marry someone of the same sex?  Sorry to use such strong language, but if the truth were known, I wonder what these guys say under their breath about people like me?

Paul Ryan and Rick Santorum (and others) are paranoid losers propped up by a Nazi pope.  PERIOD.  And what did Jesus Christ have to say – FORCEFULLY – about HYPOCRITES?  Maybe you should read your Bibles, Mr. Romney the bully and Mr. Paul Ryan and Mr. Rick Santorum.  And I have a suggestion.  Don’t rely on “traditions” and THEN go to the Bible to dredge up your stinko stuff.  That’s called proof texting.

Romney is a paranoid bullying loser propped up by the money extracted from the members of his faith – as the elders in Salt Lake City command.

Where, Mr. George H.W. Bush, in the supposed “liberal” mainstream Media, do we hear what I just said?  NO WHERE.  Screw your “new world order,” Mr. Bush … and Mr. Romney.  Screw your “kinder, gentler nation” horse shit, Mr. George H.W. Bush.  HYPOCRITES – as Jesus Christ said.

All of you have a hidden agenda.  Push gay people back into the closet or into drag.  I despise drag and I don’t wish to be pushed back into a closet.  There are gay people who might like drag, too.  Let them like it. That is the freedom we are SUPPOSED to have in the USA, but which the witches of the right wing wish to deny us.

Consider this.  There are many of us who truly are gay and are gay for many reasons, some of which consist of physical things like genetics and hormones and such.  But the reason for being gay is not limited to physical reasons, either.  But are there gay Ayn Rand worshipers who also maintain a hidden agenda?  Are there gay people who pretend to be gay in order to NOT take responsibility for ones self in society and make loads of money?  After all, with no kids to raise, a gay man can become filthy rich, don’t you know?

And that is the irony of the platform of the Republican Party.  The position of that evil party is to trash gay people who are responsible, in favor of the Ayn Rand type of gay man or woman.  Trash the ones who are responsible, then use an iron-fisted approach to those who insist on being outside the closet.  Deny these responsible people finances and jobs and healthcare and retirement, don’t you know?

The gay couple who wishes to adopt a child from overseas.  Trash them because they don’t fit the “traditional” definition of a family.  But the promiscuous ones?  Well… just don’t do it in front of us – same with you promiscuous heteros… just keep it quiet … and DON’T GET CAUGHT… or else!  LOL!  Shallowness! LOL!

The gay couple who wishes to live a private life in a committed relationship, rather than cruise the streets and bars.  Trash them, too.  But the ones who get their jollies from multiple partners – either hetero OR homo… why… just let them do their thing – the Ayn Rand way… go down low… with multiple partners…. be irresponsible, but … OH!  don’t get caught doing it.  And LOL!  Shallow laugh!

Jesus Christ:  “Satan is the father of the lie.”  Jesus Christ:  violent reaction against DECEPTIVE business people bilking the masses as they went to the synagogue.

Ayn Rand encourages promiscuity.  Domestic partner and marriage / civil union laws acknowledge what Jesus Christ said.  Ordination of gay clerics allows the ministering to those who are being responsible in committed relationships and having to face the horse shit of bullies like Romney – who apparently has Romnesia.

And yes, I may not be an executive like Lee Iacocca who published the words I just used.  But I am no different from someone who has money – and don’t you forget it.  Position does not give more rights to do something that others cannot do – and that includes the elevated position some people give the representative of Satan himself – the pope in Vatican City… or the elders in Salt Lake City.  If you are a bully, you are a bully, Mitt Romney.  It matters not how much goddamn money you have, Mittney, when you use if for evil purposes – like ship jobs overseas.

Ayn Rand followers promote promiscuity, whether it be in the heterosexual or homosexual communities.  These are shallow people who lack compassion for their fellow human beings.  “Down low” deceptiveness is okay, but not committed relationships and responsible families, regardless of sexual identity.  They sucker in those of institutions like Palm Beach Atlantic University and other institutions promoting the destruction of gay people.  Even those of us who are AGAINST abortion, but believe legislation of morality, a failure for centuries, is NOT the approach to use.

Nasty politics from nasty people who lack compassion.  These people promote a vicious form of capitalism called crony fascist capitalism – based on Ayn Rand and Libertarian evil beliefs.  I prefer the type of capitalism NOT modeled after Vatican City and Salt Lake City.  I prefer democracy and democratic capitalism which consists of free market capitalism and nixes the huge corporate conglomerate monopolies which don’t compete, but destroy their competition.  I prefer the model of capitalism of the ‘trust buster” and Republican who ran for president exactly 100 years ago – Teddy Roosevelt.  Teddy Roosevelt and Nelson Rockefeller and Jacob Javitz were all better Republicans than the lot we have today which consist of evil people.

And that is the problem with the paranoid Taft family of Ohio.  That election of 1912 split the Republican Party in half.  Teddy Roosevelt had more people who believed his PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICAN way, but nasty right wing Howard Taft – with the smallest numbers – insisted in being right.  Think about it.  Where is the Taft family of Ohio today?  What impact did that family have on the 2004 election?  Think about it.  Where are the Teddy Roosevelt folks today?  I’ll tell you.  They are being brushed aside by nasty Republican fascists today.

The ones who deserve respect are the responsible gay people today, not the Ayn Rand irresponsible ones.  But nasty politics brush good people aside – as the nasty politics destroy good RESPONSIBLE people, too.  The people who have actually worked hard to EARN their money, rather than take from others.

 

Income or Profit?

Wealthy Republicans divide the Middle Class.  They withhold jobs and opportunities, then stir up the mud of jealousy due to income of everyone except career politicians, and accountants hired by the wealthy to cook the books – in order to sabotage good positive events and things in our lives.  

Big corporations have been given a lease on life as “equals” to individuals, while individuals are restricted in their political contributions.

In all this envy and jealousy directed at people who work hard and struggle to make it in life – the ones who never make the “big bucks” of putrid-face angry radio commentators, but one would think so when listening to the lies – there exists a double standard.  Consider this. Those big corporations are never measured by their INCOME, but by their PROFITS.  In the tiny little family budget of people who struggle and work hard, there is seldom a chance to have “discretionary income” – otherwise known as “profits.”  Yet, hard-working laboring people are compared with regard to income.  And if we make too much, when compared to others in the Middle Class – even if no where close to the astronomical salaries and bonuses of the guys who head these bib corporations – we are condemned.  We don’t make the six-, seven-, eight-, nine, or ten- (or more) figure salaries.  But we are considered bad people as we gain value over many years of work.  When we finally get to the point of “turning a profit” – lingo used by the greedy pigs of business – we are told we are no longer needed.  Imagine a corporation being told, once turning a profit, they could no longer be successful.

Yet, listen to the stupidity of an advertisement on CNN tonight (10.23.12).  This guy is voting for Republicans because they exemplify “success.”  Look around you, you dumb jerk in the Middle Class (who also shoots himself and others in our class in the foot by voting Republican), and observe the truly smart-working, hard-working employees.  They are not Republicans who lazily sit at the top of many corporations.

Here I am.  A successful gay man who works in education – whom Romney, Ryan, Scott, and others wish to destroy, using greedy Republicans and horrible right-wing religious jerks.   All these years, I have paid off my student loans to the state of NY, worked extra jobs in order to feed a family, and usually had little in the form of discretionary income – the stuff left over after expenses which rip me dry from business entrepreneurs (not governments) in energy (gasoline) and insurance, among others.

I have faithfully paid my expenses, including a huge amount into insurance which very often never gets returned to me in the form of claims.  I have NEVER been paid a claim on homeowners’ insurance, but figure out how much I have paid into that black hole all these years.  But I could be age-discriminated against when it comes to MY income, but Rick Scott and others never do one thing to control the income of big insurance, as these companies make excessive profits.

Which is it?  Which is most important?  Income or profits?  And why does the little guy who finally gets to the point of turning a profit never respected as much as an inanimate thing called a … CORPORATION.

Yes, those of us from Main Street USA – the peons of America – we the people… are “economic units,” not human beings.  As with the business man who tosses away low quality blueberries when making his ice cream, we get tossed away.  “Economic units,” as described by a character who admired Maggie Thatcher in a Britcom called Waiting For God (Harvey Bains…  name sound familiar?), … yes!  that’s what we are!

28 July 2011

Some people think I will come out better if I just go along with the religious right and ultra conservatives.  I have not come out better in the past, so why should I now?  When the toombifier gang at my former employer (remember the words of Grayson) gave us this horse s*** about the layoffs being some kind of altruistic measure for “deregulation” and making it better for the consumer – and for the way electric utilities do business, I knew it was a bunch of horse s*** then.  It is still a bunch of horse s***. But alas, for the sake of my family, I was FORCED to conform.  Oh, yes.  I had a choice:  an offer I could not refuse (words from the movie, The Godfather).

The company shut down its administrative / management operations in St. Petersburg, forcing thousands of employees out of work and the industry never really became a more competitive one – as portrayed by the liars who earned millions as a result of those actions of the early 1990s.  Instead, the company joined the ranks of the company “flipper”-type CEOs who lost sight of the goals and missions of companies and merely purchase them to “flip” them and make money that way.  These people are lazy SOBs who don’t know how to EARN money – just take it from others.  Rick Scott is one of them.

My bet is these guys in the early 1990s were pissed off at the election of Bill Clinton, which made George Bush, Sr., a one-term president.  Most of them were of the younger baby boom generation who f***ed us older guys over – at the request of the greedy SOBs who were closer to my age and did have the money – quite possibly because they f***ed our government by not paying back student loans – as I had faithfully done, despite the lack of “profit” in my family unit.  Oh, yeah, it’s called “disposable income” – something us “little guys” are not supposed to have because we are too stupid to know what to do with it.

These are the same guys who are TRYING to manipulate a one-term presidency out of Barack Obama.  Why?  Not out of altruism, but out of vindictiveness.  We don’t need vindictive leaders, we need those who will get the job done – like Nancy Pelosi and a House of Representatives which accomplished more – perhaps things distasteful to these lazy bums with money – but more.  Excuse me, but were these guys elected by the people or by lazy bums with money and only one motive?  That motive (besides stubborn fascist ideology which nixes any form of reasoning or logic) is vindictiveness towards Bill Clinton and the Democrats.

These wealthy pigs mock democracy while repeating words like, “democracy,” “liberty,” “freedom.”  The “Empire” is getting too big, so they feel compelled to destroy democracy, while giving the appearance we still have it.
“You hypocrites!  You offspring of vipers!  Your father is Satan the devil!”

 

Gee!  Where did we hear these words before?
