The Far Right Lends The Cause A Pause
Things have been upside down in America. We all know that. What used to be is gone. What we never thought we'd see, has been upon us. The future has never been more uncertain, within my lifetime, than it is today.
On a daily basis I get around 1,000 emails a day. When I say that, most reply that yeah they get alot of spam too. The only problem is, mine is not spam with the exception of a few emails each day. I have my email filtered to the teeth, so I am not bothered by the likes of orphaned princes in Nigeria and those who believe I should have longer body parts than God intended for me to have at all.
I get alot of mail, and it takes a very complex filtering system to sort it all, so I can look at it according to my own set of standards. This of course means some of it is not even viewed by a human for several months. But, is kept safely in a folder just for that topic, business or person until I find the time to get around to it. I do have a priority system, so that some people, partners and businesses that send me email, get an immediate read and response.
Suffice it to say, not much of value misses this eye. Normally, long before the flood of partners, family, friends, and visitors telling me of the latest Cruise Bruise, it is already on the web site or at minimum on the wordpad in progress. I do appreciate their effort and occasionally, they get something I missed.
When it comes to people talking about Cruise Bruise on the web, nothing gets by me. If they even think of breathing before they use the phrase Cruise Bruise, I know it. That brings me to the latest person to promote Cruise Bruise, an odd alliance, if ever there was one. His mention of my web site is flooding my email inbox, and I am not happy about it.
I want it to be clear that I do not support the web site, do not know the owner of the web site and find much of what is scrawled across the pages personally offends me . . . and yet this guy is promoting Cruise Bruise right along with Fox network O'Reilly Factor. It is about the strangest thing I have seen in a very long time.
The first clue that something is terribly wrong is the promotion for FOX News. The Biased Journalistic Sabotage that network is known for makes Rosie's verbal assault on Tom Selleck look like school girl antics. While "liberals" licked it up, I found it to be the most insane talk show interviews I have ever seen.
This was not because I like Tom Selleck, the fact is I don't. I know more about him than the average American, and perhaps Rosie secretly does too. But, it was no reason for the Kamikaze style attack that really set me ablaze.
When FOX news came to me for an interview, I thought to myself, "You have to be kidding, right?" Like that would ever happen. With my time stretched tighter than Elizabeth Taylor's face, I am very careful who gets a single minute of my time.
Since I don't side with everything liberal, I guess it really makes me a moderate. The only thing I am quite sure of, is I am not a far right conservative eager to share the one and only community property brain their party uses to inform the non-brain holding party members what to think and do.
The web site is typical hate mongering, thought police proliferation on one hand. On the other hand they violate every known internet protocol for privacy. The site automatically posts where you live and how you routed to their site, for every one of their visitors to see. Heaven only knows what he is doing with the information, but it can't possibly be good.
As I read the site, I can't help but begin to hum Mike And The Mechanics, "Silent Running". Then, I see the words Ozark in links, one after the other, and begin to hum louder.
"Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I'm with the high command.
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?"
There are a lot of topics on Barbie Q, that stuff (all meat) lathered in a too sweet, tomato based sauce then tossed on a dirty, often rusty, hot grate until it begs for mercy.
There is plenty of talk about America's Biggest Communist, President Barack Obama. Apparently the person who was holder of the brain on a particular day decided that if we take a single dollar of tax money from a greedy conservative, in order to benefit a single person born with and using their own brain, it is defined as Communism.
The summary of the site is in one single fact. Over 155,000 spammed posts to the blog have been blocked, according to the statistics he posts on the site. Let me guess, his visitors are not exactly the kind of people he might want as neighbors.
Don't try to read anything into his link to this site. It is not approved. I am personally embarrassed that visitors come to his site from Europe, according to his published stats, perhaps my relatives still living in the castle. We are still trying to live down the Eight Year Dumbya From Texas Fiasco.
