Can We Escape Congressional Gridlock?

So now that Barock Hussein Obama is reelected I suppose according to the 2016 people, the President is free to put "all of his revolutionary ideas into action".  Hey there is a silver lining for conservatives, you know?  Now the "uncertainty factor" is gone.  So what's to stop the banks from parting with their stash of cash now.  Rush Limbaugh had an interesting take, as far as "preventative speech" is concerned.  Rush Limbaugh is correctly anticipating a rise and improvement in economic statistics over the next several months.  But he will ascribe it to "the resolve and spirit of the American economy".  So let me get this straight.  When we were in the doldrems it was all Obama's fault.  Now that we are in clear recovery it's the "rebounding spirit of the American economy" or whatever and Rush adds, "But of course the President will take credit for all of it".  But of course many on our side might still fret.  For they will argue, "yes we did pick up a couple of US Senate seats but the House is unchanged".  The Reason why the House is unchanged, as Randi Rhodes points out, is because of redistricting based on the 2010 tea party elections.  So you have cases like Burman and Shermon being in the same district in the Valley.  California people must be apprised that nationally they still have no "committee" making these reapportionment decisions as we do here.  But in the US Senate the democrats picked up two seats.  The party breakdown for the US Senate is now 53 Democrats and 45 Republicans and two Independents.  So how is there a real hope?  For one thing we never again need to fear either that a liberal supreme court Justice won't get appointed, and secondly we need no longer have the slightest fear that the Affordable Care Act will be overturned, or that a President Romney will yank funding for it.  But you say "But we still have griclock".  But sometimes things that seem the same - really aren't.  Here's how.  When Senator Mc Conell said he was going to make President Obama a one term president he promised that the Republican senators would soon be in the Majority, with all the organizational perks that entails.  Now they will never be.  Those 45 Republican senators will scream that Senator Mc Conell let them down.  So they will be far less inclined to take anything he says now seriously or to go along with him in lock step voting, as they have these past four years.  Also another factor that is changed now is that - - the economy IS in fact on the rebound.  The tea party can no longer suck on the blood of negative thinking and dispair that has fed their "political capital" in the past.  People will listen to a despot like Hitler when times are bad, but make him the butt of jokes in nightclubs when times are good.  This is how it will be with the Tea Party.  The media will turn against them.  Of course people like Judy will say "Well the Media is liberal to begin with".  Of course so many Republicans are no longer on the scene.  Dick Lugar of Indiana was redistricted out of his seat.  And now the Republicans have paid the price.  And you know the other names of defectors or would be defectors, Christie Todd Whitman,  Olympia Snow, Governor Christy perhaps, Arlen Spector,  Arnold Swarzenegger, and Charlie Christ.  Sure, I would rather have had Obama winning in a land slide.  As such his "coat tails" per chance may have swept a Democratic House into being.  We didn't get that.  But what we've got now is a start, and we shouldn't despair.  You can know for a fact that Mitt Romney is utterly through in politics.  Anne Romney has made it explicitit that win, lose or draw, she would never again go through another political campaign like this.  For her it could be a blessing in desguise.  Now she can rest up and take her ease, and allow her body to recover from all the stress she is under- - least further tensions cause unforseen complication in her condition.  Pray for her.

I wanted to use "Cracker Box Palace" as our lead photo, the house I moved into in mid spring of 1976.  Burt said "do it" but Mal Evans advised against airing the Google photo.  I went along with Mal, in part because I wanted to show him I "hadn't completely gone off the plantation".  As so those quotations and all of "Sacred sayings" one of theological perception may detect discrepencies between this compilation and that God thing we did several months ago.  That one was Steward.  This one is Burt.  I don't recall pledging never to put out material that never had descrepencies of a theological nature.  The Burt one showed, if you will, a somewhat more "humanized" rendition of God, than the Stewart one did.  Of course Burt still believes that Zachery was in incarnation of Vishnu, which would make Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, also an incarnation of Vishnu.  I would also state that these sayings are of "Yeshuah" rather than "Crestus", which are two different people in my "five messiah theory".  And it's Crestus that Stewart regarded as divine, rather than Yeshuah.  There are people who wonder who I believe is God.  The other night I was worried about what "God" might think of me if it turned out I had somehow aided and abetted morally destructive policies instituted by this President, and I didn't want that guilt on my hands.  This was illogical thinking on my part.  Either I believe God is a moral being or he is NOT, and maybe I should be consistent.

I would tell you the sad story of Nicole Walker by means of a lesson parable.  I've actually had dreams were I was in Nicole's situation.  That is I was manipulating things and lying about them, and throwing up phantom walls to hide the truth.  And I am going through each day scared spitless that somehow I will be exposed.  Now Nicole Walker is living such a nightmare.  She lost her baby and then faked that fall down the stairs to make Jennifer look bad.  Jennifer, being a moral person, feels really guilt ridden over the incident not being sure in her own mind whether she is at all culpable or not.  May I assure you all she is not.  Not in the least.  Now Nicole doubles down on her lie.  Jennifer said something to her I'd like to say to God on his Great White Throne.  "You've been making all these allusions about how gracious you are and are letting me off the hook for all my crimes, but you still believe I am guilty.  I don't like that.  Nobody likes Guilt.  So why don't you just man up (or woman up, as the case may be) and come right out and Spill It.  Tell me Yourself just "what happened" that is so awful in your mind.  I want to hear you say it, step by step in your own words looking me in the face as you do it.  Of course Nicole coward at such a request.  She isn't Mitt Romney after all.  She isn't that good of a liar.  Then Dr. Jonas comes in.  He knows the truth and is now exposing Nicole's great lie.  If Nicole were not a person of disgrace and shame in this Town before, she sure will be now.  Now the whole town of Salem will be viewing Nicole through Victor's eyes.

Really the one Proposition I was genuinely disappointed with in not passing was Proposition 37, the food additive one.  George Washington's blog has a lot of great videos I suggest you watch.  There is one from a voting machine programmer.  There is no "magic bullet' that will protect you from all mal-ware before the fact and before it's even been written and installed on the machine.  There is no Paul Lynd top ornament of a floor lamp that you can clasp in your hands that will protect you from all harm, physical or witch's incantations.  So beware.  You have been warned.  Voting machine tampering can occur at any time.  And you have to wait until it's there before you can examine it.  It's like a doctor telling relatives of a patient, "Well we aren't sure what the patient is dying from but the good news is after he's dead we can go in and do an autopsey, and then we'll know for sure.  Even Whole Foods distributors is not an entirely Kosher outfit, that has fudged the truth on a number of occasions according to George Washington's blog.  Some 34% of their food- - something like that, is genetically engineered produce.  Of course it's true that farmers who are traditional farmers and not stooges of Monsanto or DuPont- - - WANTED proposition 37 to pass because these real farmers take pride in their produce and proudly want it to be labled for what it is.  (Selah)

Dr. Levy walks into a psychic reading center and there are a lot of cloistered doors in the room and Dr. Levy tells the attendant, "I'm having problems achieving psychic unity with my wife, and at this point I'm really not sure whether she's my true soul mate".  Attendant:  Oh - just step through that door over there.  Dr. Levy steps in the door where he is immediately set upon by a bunch of demons.  He says in protest - - "You're demons! What are you trying to do - Possess me?  "What do YOU think?" "But - why??? - - - demon:  "Well, you said you were looking for a Soul mate.  Well you know there are room mates, ship mates, table mates- - so - - using the same line of reasoning - - what you would suppose that a Soul Mate is???

Jesus was on the cross and Satan appears to him to torment him with words.  Jesus says "Satan, you have to be the most Despicable people - - not to mention utterly Stupid- - that I have ever met!  Satan responds:  "Oh?  Why don;'t you tell me to go to Hell?  Oh I forgot - - I'm already there! and begins laughing wickedly.

Dr. Levy one day ran into L' Angelo Mysteriso.  He said to him.  Dr. Levy I presume.  You're one of those people that believes that God can't POSSIBLY have any form of visible manifestation."  Dr. Levy responds.  "That's right".  L' Angelo Mysteroso says to him, "You know my mama always told me Seeing is Believing.  I won't believe THAT till I SEE it with my own eyes!  Dr. Levy:  "Wait a minute - - you won't believe what you can't  - - - untill you See - - - ?  You're vexing my mind!

Dr. Levy runs into Bill Clinton and says to him, "You know- - I bragged on you and you let me down!  My trusted sources (who are never wrong) plainly told me that you hated Obama and wanted Hillary to run against him in the primaries.  And there you go running your mouth and fawning all over President Obama at the democratic convention.  You know- - I'm a democrat, but I'm not one of those whacked out - - Liberal - - democrats.  I'm your regular Normal democrat.  Clinton:  "Oh really- - such as Who. Who in government agrees with your views.  Dr. Levy - - well, there is- - well - - there's - - OK no not him.  But you know what they say - - One person plus God equals a Majority.  Thomas Jefferson said that."  Clinton:  OK name me ONE person.  Dr. Levy:  (thinking hard) - - -  "OK now you're just verbally screwing me over.  That's not fair. It's mean".  Clinton:  My apologies for the fact you made an ass of yourself.

Dr Levy had a dream he in a Spanish library:  What's this book here "Cinquenta caminas para decir mendosas?  Wait a minute there is a diskette in here that says "The God interview".  He accessed a computer and slipped in the disk obsolete in America.  It was President Obama giving a speech where he says "Tear down this temple built with hands- - and in three days I will build one built one up not made with hands- - and among the people in the audience was De Forest Kelly- bowing to him in Islamic fashion.  Dr. Levy was so perplexed at this image he left the place.  He didn't know why but suddenly he felt really spooked.

In the next scene of the dream, Dr. Levy went next door to the comic book store where the "Comic Book guy" looked like a Spanish adaptation of the Simpson's character.  There was a Paul Conrad cartoon in display and he looked at the thing intently.  The proprietor came over and said "This is one never Published in the Times.  It's called "An encounter with God".  It featured Jesus Christ bleeding on the cross and Satan comes to him in a vision and he says to Jesus "Now remember Jesus - - after you have defeated me on the cross- - - afterwards- - No gloating!"

There was a sign on the Exit door he tried not to look at which read "Si ve algo di algo"
