			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Soviet Union couldn&#8217;t do it.  What is it?  What do we want from Afghanistan?  Nothing has changed for hundreds of years and we think we have some opportunity to make a so-called Democracy or do we just want to control the nation?  Keep a PREDATOR eye on them and get the young men and women out of the shit hole of the world.  Let me give you a quote, it is from Lance Corporal David James Richvalsky, age 19 from Waialua, Hawaii.  &#8220;I&#8217;m sure if I was phuquing born in Afghanistan, I&#8217;d probably be Taliban, you know?  That&#8217;s their deal; this is my deal&#8230;I came back after I was wounded because of these guys, the guys that I&#8217;m out here with.  This really isn&#8217;t my fight.  This really isn&#8217;t America&#8217;s fight either.  We&#8217;re kind of just here&#8230;It&#8217;s only because I still got boys here that I wanted to come back.&#8221;</p>
<p>We need test tube babies, most of the fit young men are dying in Wars and the rest are gay&#8230;(Just kidding)  Viagra ain&#8217;t going to raise the sperm count.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Observing the sexism in so-called straight males and their counter part gay men; I believe that the bottom line to this rant will be that males no matter straight or gay and that thing that hangs between their legs with surrounding security, has them thinking they have the power.  What is power?  Financial empowerment equals strength to those who deal with power games.  I don&#8217;t know where I am going with this rant but my fingers are just poppin along.</p>
<p>Having observed what wishful thinking the so-called Republican candidates for Presidency are talking about is nothing that would benefit all Americans.  Take away this, take away that and what you have is 1% of this nation trying to control the masses.  Think about it;  &#8220;Billionaire Boys Club&#8221; has ripped off and threatened our fragile &#8216;Democracy&#8217;.  Please make a stand and fight for the right of all Americans and not let the few, distant, power-hungry, old men, earth grabbing, phuque bunny&#8217;s ruin our lives.  Old men are voting on the rights of women to control their own bodies.  Viagra and it&#8217;s counter parts are speaking to limp dicks; what is the difference in the thinking of these so called thinkers and the Taliban?  Nothing. They are all trying to control women.</p>
<p>Rights are being taken away and it is a shame that once was has the possibility of being no more.</p>
<p>Done with the rant, off to exercise myself and the dogs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Closeted handsome queer in uniform gets outed and has resigned from Mitt Romney&#8217;s Arizona committee.  Sheriff Paul Babeu was accused of threatening his ex lover with deportation if he was outed.  His ex lover was a former campaign volunteer and apparently Mr. Sheriff is not happy with his being outed.  Babeu a first-term sheriff who has risen to national prominence with his strong opposition to illegal immigration found it easy to have an undocumented, young, Mexican man/boy as a lover, but oh no can&#8217;t have it made public.  He is saying the accusations were an attempt to hurt his political career. (Mr. Sleaze&#8211;more to worry about than your career)  Dumb dick hurt himself by being in the closet&#8211;now what is this Mr. Bad Ass going to do?  He vowed to continue his campaign in Arizona&#8217;s rural 4th Congressional District but said he had called Romney&#8217;s staff to say he would step down from his post as state campaign co-chair.</p>
<p>Sheriff Babeu, lift some weights, phuque the young Mexican boys and send them on their way&#8230;.My opinion&#8211;&#8221;A true piece of crap.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Look what is going on in the world; religion and the differences in religion are mostly to blame.  Separation of Church and State is a must to make the world function on an equal playing field.  Afghanistan, Pakistan, most of Africa and certainly the Middle East has the bold religious flare of hate.  Israel is the only form of Democracy trying to work in the countries surrounding them with religious and tribal fanatics.  Israel itself is having a tough time with the rock n/roller Hasidics who want to bring Israel back&#8211;back to what I ask? Before the Crusades?  Bottom line to this rant is we in the United States have the same crap happening with our ultra conservative Christian right who want to have the Crusades happening again.</p>
<p>Done with the good coffee rant&#8211;off to run the dogs and be as happy as I can be&#8211;same to you all.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Little by little the non breeding Tea Party wing of the Republican Party has won its point on their anti-abortion movement.  There is an investigation going on with Planned Parenthood to find out if any Federal $$$ are being used for abortions.  Susan B Komen Foundation gives $ to the Planned Parenthood for mammograms and other examinations and because of the investigation they have stopped funding any and everything to do with the organization.  I say chicken-shit!!!!!  You have your ninety year old non breeding, old men telling woman what they can and cannot be done with their own bodies&#8211;phuque em and let their prostrates swell up and choke em.  I say the Komen Foundation is gutless and has succumbed to the pressures of the non-breeders.</p>
<p>Again; little by little things are being taken away in the every familiar rant of the &#8220;Christian Way.&#8221;  Do you think I am pissed&#8211;you betcha.  Who do see standing in front of the Planned Parenthood buildings on Wednesday afternoon?  Non breeders, who are getting $10 and hour to hold up signs and bow their heads.  I asked them one day, &#8220;Would you take the responsibility of caring for this child if it was delivered today?&#8221;   They could not answer me and just kept bowing their heads and rocking with their commercially made signs.</p>
<p>Look what a little communication can do.  Susan B Komen Foundation has backed down from the non support of Planned Parenthood and are now going to continue their funding.  Cancer prevention is not a political toy.  Executive Director of the Komen Foundation needs un-spray her hair, loosen up the virginity belt and be a woman of conscience, not that of soul-less character who is bought and sold.</p>
<p>Komen Foundation has held back over $13 million to hospitals and research centers if they continue to do stem-cell research.  Bottom line to the Komen Foundation is they have lost their way in the reality program and are on the hump back conservative, Christian, Bible quoting, left out of the real world, almost righteous fools.</p>

<h1>Prejudiced, Conservative People Probably Stupid, Says Science</h1>
<p>You&#8217;ve always had an inkling that this might be true, and now here comes Science to validate your gut: children with low IQs tend to grow up to be prejudiced adults who often adopt socially conservative ideologies. The &#8220;liberal elite&#8221; is not in your imagination, friends. Fox News viewers really <em>are</em> that dumb!</p>
<p>The study, conducted by Brock University in Ontario&#8217;s Gordon Hodson and published in a recent issue of the <em>Journal of Psychological Science</em>, analyzed data assembled from two separate studies in order to examine the link between cognitive ability and prejudice.</p>
<p>The first study examined two groups of British adults, one born in 1958 and the other born in 1970. Both groups were assessed for intelligence at age 10 or 11, and then a followup was conducted when they were between the ages of 30 and 33. During the initial test, children were asked to complete tasks that tested their abilities to reason and remember. During the followup two decades later, researchers assessed the subjects&#8217; level of prejudice and degree of socially conservative views. &#8220;Social conservatism&#8221; was determined by asking subjects to respond to a series of questions like &#8220;Family life suffers if mom is working full time&#8221; or &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t mind working with other races.&#8221; In this study, children with low scores on the first set of tests tended to grow up to exhibit prejudiced and socially conservative viewpoints on the second set of tests.</p>
<p>As LiveScience&#8217;s Stephanie Pappas <a href="http://www.livescience.com/18132-intelligence-social-conservatism-racism.html">mentions</a>, the questionnaire didn&#8217;t test for secretly racist thoughts, and thus the more intelligent subjects may still have been prejudiced, but just better at lying about it. The study also found that low intelligence children tended to have fewer encounters with people of other races, and that the lack of contact may have contributed to their prejudiced adult attitudes.</p>
<p>The second study analyzed by the Canadian researchers examined Americans&#8217; attitude toward homosexuality. The study found that people with poorer abstract reasoning skills tended to be more homophobic, even when researchers controlled for education level.</p>
<p>The Canadian researchers hypothesize that people who &#8220;have trouble grasping the complexity of the world&#8221; may tend toward prejudice and conservatism because they crave structure and can&#8217;t process chaos and nuance. Religion, authoritarianism, and isolationism appeal to a desire for order in a world that offers few absolutes.</p>
<p>Obviously, this doesn&#8217;t mean that every single liberal is smarter than every single conservative, or that every single conservative was a rubber cement huffing boogereater as a kid. And this doesn&#8217;t mean that being dumb caused all those people to vote for George W Bush&#8217;s 2004 reelection (although that may have helped). But this study does provide insight into the link between ideology and intelligence, and it&#8217;s an interesting new way to make your Tea Partying uncle get really mad at you at the next family gathering.</p>
<p>Not that any of this hoity-toity &#8220;science&#8221; crap will matter to all the Real Americans posting about &#8220;illegals&#8221; on your Facebook news feed. But, for now, feel free to bask.</p>
