NOH8 Campaign To Tarnish Their Image

NOH8Campaign Via Twitter: right now @chimasimone is on her way to the studio. #NOH8 #changetheworld #BB11about 10 hours ago from web

The NOH8 campaign is about to ruin their image by using a known racist in one of their next ad campaigns. Chima Simone the horrible and vile racist who was evicted by the producers of Big Brother for violating the rules of the game, is set to take pictures for a NOH8 ad.

The NOH8 campaign was launched after the passing of Prop. 8 in California. It is a massive effort to end hatred and bigotry in all forms.

Why does it matter if NOH8 uses Chima Simone?

I should start first which Chima's eviction speech in during the first eviction ceremony of the 11th season of Big Brother. A contestant named Braden Bacha who was the first to be evicted, burst out in a racist attack on Kevin and Lydia during an argument in the back yard of the Big Brother house. Braden called Kevin who is of Japanese and African American decent, "Beaner" and other racial stereotypes relating to Mexicans.

So at the first eviction this was Chima's speech.

Chima, a short time later, has a major fight and blow out with Russell. Someone with whom she flirted with and hung all over incessantly in the Big Brother House. Apparently a jealous tiff happened between the two during one of the competitions. She flirted and he flirted with other people behind the scenes. Then all hell broke loose in the house. Chima and Russell are both stubborn and loud mouths in the house. Both antagonistic, both strong willed, and both will not back down when cornered. Once they began to fight, Chima a crossed a line in which she couldn't walk back. She began to call Russell who is of Lebanese decent, a terrorist. And when she first said it, she said "Fuck it, it's out there. I said it." She even had Lydia, the Big Brother resident bi-polar manic depressive whom admitted on the show to cutting herself and was a having frequent mood issues, to join in with her in calling Russell a terrorist.

This is a clip of Chima and Lydia calling Russell a terrorist right before Chima was evicted. Saying the twin towers remark, and that she wasn't sorry for the things she has said to Russell.

CBS edited Chima on their regular Big Brother network show as though she were calling Russell a terrorist because he was terrorizing the house. There was a moment on the live feeds which sadly I do not have on tape because I am not technical at all and the Superpass Real Player FlashBack feature has not worked for me all summer, where Kevin asked Chima to stop calling Russell a Terrorist because she said it 50 millions times already and he said it's wrong for her to do that. Chima said to Kevin that she would spin it in a way that made it like she was saying he was terrorizing the house. So at this moment we know Chima does in fact mean her attacks on Russell in a racial way and clearly knows it's wrong and has a plan to cover her tracks instead of saying sorry. Naturally this was the new lie she stuck to and CBS tried to edit her that way as seen in the below clip taken from the edited show. Skip to the 2:50 mark. CBS never showed Braden's racist "Beaner" remarks but no one denies it happened after Chima's bullshit speech about Braden during the first evictions. But Shamefully CBS actually tried to cover it up for Chima.

Chima has also called Russell "Osama," said she "would win the game over Russell because America hates terrorists," called herself the twin towers, and told Michele (another house guest) while in the HOH room that she DID mean it in a racial way. Michele later confided in Russell about that. Jesse, another loser house guest from Big Brother also participated in the racism. While drinking in the HOH (Head of Household room), he laughed and made jokes with Chima about Russell being a terrorist too. She has made numerous comments about white people and blonde women. She threw around the word misogynist left and right, yet she was the most hateful person in the house not just to all of the HG's but to the women especially calling them whores and bitches. She said about Lydia that Lydia "would suck the current HOH's dick if it kept her in the game" and called her a whore and laughed about it. Then said it was okay for her to say that because she was joking. She only issued a half assed apology to Lydia because she was tired of arguing that she was justified in calling Lydia a whore because she was joking. She then immediately went behind Lydia's back and laughed about how she called Lydia a whore right to her face with Natalie and Jesse, other big Brother House Guests.

When Chima was booted from the Big Brother house and realized that there was a real backlash against her character, her PR team quickly had her issue this statement:

Upon recently leaving the Big Brother show this season I have been privy to many judgments and criticisms made of every aspect of my being ranging from things as trivial as my appearance to more egregious comments referring to me as a racist.

As a woman of color, I have experienced racism first hand. I know what it is to be discriminated against so I would never want to inflict that pain onto someone else. I will, however, always stand up for myself. Many of you perceive my resolute candor objectionable, but I have always been outspoken and will remain so. I will never apologize for my looks, personality, or straightforwardness.

Nonetheless, I am particularly sorry that my words disparaged the regard and respect that should be shown to all cultures, especially the Middle Eastern community in this time of great turmoil within our nations. In describing Russell’s abusive, bullying, and threatening actions towards me and other houseguests, I referred to him as a terrorist. I used a phrase that was insensitive given his Middle Eastern descent and I apologize to all who are justifiably offended with my use of that racially charged term.

My sentiments concerning his behavior, however, remain intact. I do not agree with his antagonistic rampages throughout the house. Russell constantly demoralized many of us on a consistent basis and his conduct was alarming, daunting, and terrifying.

Fortunately, for me, I do not have to be subjected to those tirades anymore. I am going on with my life in the real world. I wish the remaining BB housemates the best of luck!

Best,
Chima Simone

"In describing Russell’s abusive, bullying, and threatening actions towards me and other houseguests, I referred to him as a terrorist."

That part is the lie that she continues to spin and perpetuate which is why we should not accept any form of apology until she comes correct about what she really meant. Forgive her when she is ready to admit she lied. Everything else until then is Buhhhshit. (Buhhhshit with 3 h's was Chima's favorite word on Big Brother. "That's sum Buhhhshit! And of course calling Russell Mutherrrr Fuckerrrr! 4 r's in each word. I mean you really have to emphasize that "r" good.)

This is the very reason I used the image of Isaiah Washington in his NOH8 Campaign photos. Isaiah Washington meant it when he said sorry for the things he said against gay people. He apologized a lot and especially to T.R. Knight whom was the target of Washington's homophobic remark. He also went through anger management classes. He took steps to better his life and continues to lead a positive example of learning from his mistake. I believe that people make mistakes and are allowed or should be allowed to make amends for them. Lord knows I am full of my own mistakes. It's what you do after you make a mistake that shows the real content of your character.

Chima however, lied in her apology and therefore is not sorry. She isn't changing or willing to change. The proof is on the feeds where she tells Kevin just how she will spin this whole mess. Also where she tells Michele she meant it racially, and the numerous times she made cheap cracks at white people. Calling all of the south ignorant. How not all white people are bad because they voted for Obama.

Worst of all was Chima threatening to use her rape as a ploy against Russell. Chima was a survivor of a vicious attack and raped by a man known as The Bathtub killer. In a sad and true story she was attacked and raped by a serial killer and managed to fight back and get away. Her survival was the key in catching the killer. He was later put to death in the state of Texas.

During her mental breakdown on Big Brother, she threatened that if the producers did not get rid of Russell, she would say she doesn't feel safe with Russell in the house, and would force the producers to get rid of him. She said "they can't say shit to me about it."

She also threw water on Russell and threatened to spit on him in order to get him to hit her so he could be thrown out. What kind of sick person wants a trained cage fighter to hit her over some game? Yes Russell is apparently a Mixed Martial arts fighter.

She never said sorry for any of that either. Even if she is a rape victim herself, the threats of using her rape to unfairly oust a player in the game was disgusting and a horrible slap in the face to other rape victims and survivors out there. It would be one thing if she said it just fucking around or as game play banter (as sick as that might be), but she meant these things and threatened the producers of Big Brother with these actions on a regular basis.

This is the kind of person the NOH8 campaign is proud to showcase on their ad campaign. It's a sad day for equality. Yes Chima has a right to free speech. I was all for Chima continuing to spew her vile racism, because I knew once she got out in the real world again she would have to face the consequences for her words and actions. Not be celebrated by an organization who works to end hate.

I think it is also very important to know that there is a difference between shit talk, gossip, and pure hate. I myself am plenty guilty of vile shit talk and trashy gossip. But do not mistake my foul mouth with the same kind of hate Chima Simone has disgustingly fueled on Big Brother.

I am a woman who regularly calls other women cunts, bitches, and when there is a cheap whore around, I point that out too. But I do the same thing to men too. I have a bad habit of not letting anyone get away with their bullshit if they deserve it. There are a lot of stories, celebrities and people I find ridiculous. I am just not a big supporter of people in general.

I am not a journalist I am just a shit talking blogger. I am a terrible writer with abhorrent grammar and zero shame. Most of you might find that unsavory. And that's okay, but with the exception of a few cases, nothing I ever write about or talk shit about is ever done with real malice or contempt. For gods sake I have a massive pair of tits in my blog header. How can anything be taken too seriously or contemptuous with that?

I must confess though, the very worst thing I have ever said was I wished Chima never got away from her attacker. After watching her disgusting behavior I was fed up with her hateful ways. But there is no excuse for that. I was truly sorry I said it too. I might hate her vile ways, but I don't really ever wish for anyone to be hurt.

Okay that's a lie. I wished for Micheal Vick to suffer a career ending blow like Joe Theismann. But he is disgusting animal killer and I feel no shame for wishing him ill will or people like him who senselessly hurt animals.

The point is, I am just being honest with myself. There is shit talk, there is trashy gossip, and regular haterade. But there is no excuse for racism and pure hatred. And using your rape as a cheap tactic to get your way when things don't go your way on a fucking reality show.

I really didn't want to talk about Chima anymore. We made fun of her on twitter and had good laughs at her melt downs. I know a lot of you are thinking "why do you keep bringing this bitch up?" Again I was cool with letting her fade into loser obscurity, but her name has reignited controversy with this NOH8 ad. I can't tell what their motivation is. Cheap publicity? Do they really believe Chima was unfairly edited by CBS when in fact CBS covered up how vile she really was? Did they honestly buy that cheap ass apology based on more lies? Are they really just naive and easily ready to forgive at the drop of a dime?

Whatever their reasons are, it stinks. They have now cheapened their cause to garnish a little bit of press. I know most of you don't let the small shit bother you. And I know most people are quick to forgive and move on. That is okay too.

All I am asking is that NOH8 chickety-check themselves before they wreck themselves with an unapologetic racist like Chima. Is this really the kind of person they wish to make an example out of as a changed person? Someone who willfully lied in their apology. Someone so full of actual and real hatred for just about everyone and everything? Someone who on a daily basis said something racial or vile or full of hate? You don't lose that kind of hate over night and with one fake NOH8 ad. Fake from Chima that is.

Ask any real Big Brother fan who has been watching from the beginning and they will tell you it is true that Chima is in fact a hateful racist and that she is not sorry. She has maybe 2 fans out there who will tell you differently. But I guess family is supposed to stick up for you aren't they?

I wore out my twitter with Chima Haterade that's why I was hoping this bitch's 15 minutes were up already. I have no shame in admitting that I definitely helped perpetuate the awesome hashtag on twitter #ChimasWeave. If I have said it once, I will say it 1000 times. Chima's weave was the real star of Big Brother! And a good portion of you all participated in the #ChimasWeave song game.

My Twitter Buddies filling me on some key Live Feed Flash Back dates and times.

jakejonasmom: Cam1 -10:11-10:16pm 8/13 - twin towers, terrorist & white trash. #BB11 - during Jessie's funeral

attwx: 8/3 - 11:10 pm - F1 - chima bashes russell's family and calls russell a terrorist

jakejonasmom: I can't record but on camera 1 on 8/14 at 12:09 is the extremist muslim terrorist comments\. also says that Jeff hates women.

(Every man who doesn't pay Chima attention or denies her advances is a misogynist who hates women. She has hated on Jeff since day one when Jeff showed interest in Jordan, a very cute blonde who is completely innocent in nature and has stood by Jeff through all the drama and BS of this game, over Chima. That is my own suspicion about Chima and Jeff. But there has been many awful things she has said about Jeff and Jordan, particularly blondes that she simply had no justifiable reason to say.)

attwx: there was one very early in the season about white girls being nasty and dirty when natalie was getting a wart on her foot

Thanks to Twitter users kshae, ihatebigbrother, rosclark7, growlt, stb71 for also pointing out for me some of the video links and key moments with Chima.

I will continue to update this post as more of Chima footage or times and dates from the feeds are brought to my attention. 

UPDATE: Chima Makes Reality TV Hall of Shame. They basically say everything I say but without all the swear words.

And Chima continues to lie about her meaning of the word Terrorist only this time to People. I am not quite sure why People would even bother to publish her statement without a follow up to prove she is lying. It's all out there and she continues to lie.

Dear Oprah,

DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT give Jenny McCarthy a platform to spew her awful views, inaccurate information about Autism, and teaching people not to get their kids vaccinated. She has the potential to harm thousands of children and families, those that listen to her bad advice.

I urge you not to support her platform or help her spread her misinformation. The lives she affects, the lives she will end up hurting will also rest on your head if you allow that moron the opportunity.

I urge you to listen to people who know what they are talking about like actual doctors. Listen to families who have suffered losses of children and their stories.

This information was found with a quick search of the internet. I am not a Doctor, I don't play one on t.v., but the information is there. Talk to doctors or anyone who works in the medical health profession. They will all tell you that Jenny McCarthy, a brainless former playboy model whose drapes do not match the rug, should be the very last person giving advice about autism and vaccinations. Some who calls her boyfriend Jim Carrey, "The Autism Whisperer." Classy!

Shame on you Oprah!! Shame on you for even entertaining this idea. You should be advocating on behalf of Doctors and actual science. If you wanted ratings or some controversy to bring your name some more press, why not deal with the issues at your school in South Africa? Why offer up something that potentially hurts even more children?

Again, I plead that you do not support Jenny McCarthy's platform or give her one to promote such terrible information. A boycott should be in order of your shows and anything you represent should you choose to stand up for someone who can potentially harm thousands of children.

Love,

Don't You Dare Defend Sarah Palin's Wardrobe!!

Okay let's make one thing clear. Do not defend Sarah Palin or the RNC's decision to let her go on a $150k shopping spree. I will quote Shakespere here with Juliet's mother in Romeo and Juliet. "Talk not to me for I will not hear a word."

I am outraged and mad as hell that some of these republican women are out on a war path to attack the media and call it sexist that Sarah Palin took campaign money to go shopping at Sak's Fifth Avenue, and Neiman Marcus. Sure they are supposed to defend her with distracting talking points. But give me a fucking break. This is the lowest of the low. Shameless women defending other shameless women. I just watched David Schuster hash it out with republican Sherri Jacobus. She won't admit she is embarrassed by Palin's shameless spending though most republicans are saying that they are. And she even added that Plain is "worth every penny." That's not the kind of message I would be trying to send. American she is worth it so send us more money to fund her shopping. What is this a fucking Loreal commercial?

While Sarah Palin is out on the campaign trail desperately trying to portray herself as some average American, while this nation struggles to pay their bills, for groceries, and for gas, this woman was out shopping and getting herself glammed up. And she took the hard earned money of these donors to do it.

Now I will say the make up artist was not a bad investment. Someone has to teach Palin how to put her goddamn lipstick on. She wears her liner around her mouth like Pam Anderson. I am not sure that whore is the kind of person I would be working so hard to emulate. But to each their own.

Campbell Brown on CNN tried to make this a sexist issue that Palin's spending of campaign funds in shameless ways wouldn't be talked about if she were a man. Yes they would. But no one has ever blown that much money let alone campaign money on such stupid and trite things like shopping. She thinks it's ridiculous that we aren't talking about the men in this way. Or bringing up McCain's expensive clothes. 

Campbell wants to remind people about the double standard women have. There is relevance in the fact that yes women do have to live up to a higher standard on appearance than men. But that is not the point of Palin's shopping spree and why it's being brought up. She took campaign funds. And allowed herself to be treated in such a way. Palin is very pretty and frankly didn't need the clothes to convey that fact. But why she did it again isn't the point. It's why she took campaign funds to do it and why she needed so much of it that's really the issue.

Campbell Brown didn't exactly have shit to say about the gross display of wealth from Cindy McCain when she wore that disgustingly ugly $300k dollar outfit for the RNC. One outfit that cost that much. And you know why it wasn't a big deal? Because she is rich and it was her own money. She is free to blow it on ugly outfits that highlighted how bad her plastic surgery is all she wants to.

Campbell also forgets that John Edwards was railed by the press for his stupid $400 dollar haircuts. And his stupid perfect hair. I guess that wasn't sexist to make fun of a guy for getting a high priced haircut? No?  It's only sexist when it comes to women? Oh no I get it. For every inadequacy a woman has we'll just chalk it up to sexism. We'll ignore the fact that men too have been called out for their gross expenditures.

We have to constantly set women back. Campbell you effectively set women back by making this yet another unfounded sexist issue. Women can no longer be held responsible for their actions any more. She blew $150k of campaign money for personal gain. And you claim it's because we set standards on women. She HAS to look good. Well what about Palin taking hard earned money from the struggling people of this nation? What about the fact that she allows herself to be used and treated this way. She took the goddamn money.

Campbell says we don't make a big deal of McCain's $520 Ferragamo shoes. That's because he is rich!!! He paid for it. Why does he need to be railed for something he bought with his own money? If he wants to wipe his ass in silk, it's his right to do it with his money. Did he take campaign money to buy imported Italian suits? No. No one has accept for Palin.

Why can't she be held accountable without it being another fucking ridiculous charge of sexism? This is egregious spending. And it's a pattern of lies from the McCain campaign. "We are just like you. We struggle just like you my friends." The only thing Palin is struggling with monetarily speaking is which fucking designer boot to buy. Let's not forget that she used Alaskan tax payer money to fly her kids around and used it on her family in other ways.

She should be held accountable. Don't any of you women deny her responsibility with bogus charges of sexism to change the subject or flip it back.

What women fail to realize is that the constant crying and over use of the sexism card is what is setting women back. Women want every single thing that men have and to be treated fairly for it. Well guess what? Politics is a nasty game. And men tear each other apart all the time. In cheap and petty ways to more serious ways. When a women enters the playing field we have taken away her ability to be hit. Women say focus on the issues. Well the issue is the the campaign funds. And now that it's disgusting that a woman did something shameless, it's sexist. Bollocks to that!

If you want the glass ceiling broken, then don't complain and make exaggerated claims of sexism. Don't let them take you down, but don't take every mistake a woman makes and turn it in to some crying game. Women need to own their mistakes. Do not follow Hillary Clinton's lead and whip up fake tears and pander. Own what you did. The reason men have a hard time taking women seriously is because all they do is cry and and not stand up to their own actions. And as a woman myself, I can't say that I blame them.

Sarah Palin is stupid. She is corrupt. And she is a liar. Own it you bitches. And stop making excuses for that pathetic excuse of a woman. And stop holding us back because you feel mistreated and the need to cry. Real women don't need to hide behind sexism. They take the hits just like the men do. If we want true equality, then we need to stop crying about every little issue. And we need to remind ourselves that men can be and are just as petty as women are. Maybe not about the same issues as make up and clothes, but if you listen to them carefully, especially McCain right now, they whine an awful lot. They are not better. McCain puts out a terrorist ad, and when someone calls him out for it, he doesn't answer the charge he cries about being called and points the finger back. What is that people? It's called a bitch tactic. So you see ladies, men are just as capable of the ridiculous. You just have to play the game and know what to look for and know how to call them out on their own shit instead of crying how unfair things are for you.

Dear Ohio,

Let's come together and do the right thing and vote for Senator Barack Obama and Senator Joe Biden to be our next president.

All we ever hear about in the media is how badly Ohioans are hurting right now. The economy, the out sourced jobs, the closing of factories, and the foreclosures of homes. That impacts not just Ohio, but every where. We are all in the same boat.

Now is your chance to do the right thing for your state. Obama has comprehensive tax plans and plans to stimulate our economy on top of incentives for companies who do not out source their jobs. McCain has none of those things. And has to date offered no plan that directly helps you with out taking or hurting from some other group in America.

What will happen if you do not vote for Obama? If you don't, then you don't get to complain anymore about your current situations. You technically shouldn't be complaining now after voting for Bush twice knowing full well he was hurting you and this country. Bush cleverly talked up the gay marriage issue on the ballot and instead of voting for what you knew in your heart of hearts was right, you voted Bush back in. Now, I can't say everyone did that, but it was a major contributing factor as to why John Kerry lost in to 2004 elections. But to vote for more statewide devastation rather than to see a same sex couple get married is insane. You would rather see the Constitution that states all men are created equal redefined and changed versus focus on real issues like keeping your jobs at home. That's the way it looked anyway. And again not everyone is guilty of that. But a large number of you are.

Don't let race be a factor in your decision to vote. McCain is working really hard to plant those seeds that Obama is different, that he is black, that he is a scary Muslim. These are seeds of hate and division that this country is through with.

Don't let religion be the factor in your votes. Remember that this country is founded on religious freedom. Think back to your pilgrim forefathers. They left to escape religious oppression. We have a thing called separation of church and state. What you practice is okay so long as what everyone else practices is okay. And so long as it is kept out of politics. One man and one woman being defined as a constitutional law, is discrimination and does not leave any room for equality in this country.

Now is your chance to make up for letting Hillary Clinton play you about NAFTA. She won your state during the primaries on a lie how does that actually make you feel? You got played for political pandering. McCain and Palin are playing you now. They can't even give you one credible answer about their policies and plans with out it being followed by hate or a smear on their opponent.

Please do what is right. Do not let bullshit republican tactics sway your vote. You are smarter than the lies, the hate, and the powers that be that are interested in our division to win this election. Barack Obama is not a Muslim. He does not have a secret Muslim agenda. And even if he were a Muslim, remember that there are 6 to 8 million Muslim Americans who live in this country and are Americans just as you and I are. They were born here love this country just as you and I were. Don't forget the brave who celebrate different religious belief but would die for this country too. And he really does have your best interests at heart. One only has to listen to him actually answer the questions, any questions asked of him about the state of the economy, health care, and taxes to know that he is in it for you. McCain barely talks about real issues. And his plans are weak and only more destructive to this nation. One only has to see how he changes the subject or points the fingers back when he is called out or asked a simple question. Hate, fear mongering, and the rich get richer while the poor get poorer mentality. We must end this now.

It's not too late Ohio. Get out and rock that vote. Do it for the future of your state. It impacts us in the rest of this country as much as it impacts you. Do it for the future of your children.

Signed,

Scandalous Candice

Addressing The Haters And Hypocritical Republicans

[Graffiti art in Cambridge, Mass. Image by Todd Alstrom]

Why do I support things like the poster above that was plastered on a graffiti wall meanwhile denounce the bigoted and racist hate speech from the McCain campaign and supporters?

This is a good question and one worth answering. I support it because I personally believe it based on things she has said, done, and proved during this general election. I am not a journalist who is held to be unbiased and respect journalistic integrity of fair and balanced reporting. I should point out that neither is FOX News, MSNBC, or CNN for that matter. CNN was busted for reporting something like 54 times the wrong information about ACORN. FOX Noise is so right winged and full of shit on just about everything the report including the now infamous "Terrorist Fist Jab" reporting. And MSNBC despite having winners like Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow, refuse to cover issues against the McCain campaign. I am just thinking of the time they reported for three solid weeks about Jeremiah Wright and refused to cover Palin's witch doctor moment. Or how they backed down to Hillary Clinton during the primaries for fear of her bullshit sexist claims, and media bias bullshit any time someone called her out for her bullshit and lies during the primaries.

So why do I support calling Palin a bitch? And during the primaries my favorite was calling Hillary Clinton a cunt. I claim the female card. I am a woman and I am not offended by those words. I took the gender out of those words when it comes to me and how I feel about how they were and are acting. I don't care if you agree with that or not. I think women need to stand up and take it sometimes. Yes it's offensive. But to me it has nothing to do with gender. To me gender is off the table because I am a woman and I don't look at issues through that veil. It is a total character assassination point of view. I despise these women. And as woman who knows what it's like to be called a bitch, be a bitch, and owns her inner bitch and nurtures it like her own child, I recognize my own kind from a mile away. I don't support them and won't let them get away with their Bitch Tactics. A common phrase I like to use on my blog that encapsulates a multitude of examples from both men and women alike.

Hillary and Palin go out of their way to prove their actions. Again I hold true that I am merely a blogger with my own opinions. I ask no one agree with me. I make no demands of that. I am just putting my own thoughts out there.

Not to rehash this nightmare again, Lord knows I have expressed my lovely opinions about her enough, but during the primary she said and did very dangerous things. She made brazen lies. Like winning Ohio on a lie about NAFTA. She made horrible bigoted remarks and used fear mongering as a tactic with the now infamous "3 AM ad". And saying things like "Barack Obama is not a Muslim... As far as I know."

Hillary also used the sexism card in a horrible and disgusting way setting women and real feminists back. She whipped up fake tears on the campaign trail not once but three times. And then used sexism as an excuse any time someone in the media called her out on a lie or a bad tactic. "I am a tough woman here I come. But don't get too rough with me I am still a woman." Fuck that. That's not breaking the glass ceiling. You don't get to kick a guy in the balls and then when he arches up to hit you as a reaction, cry foul and say "don't hit me I am only a woman." That's exactly how Clinton ran her campaign.

Her worst offense yet was saying that of the 3 people McCain, herself and Obama, only two of them had enough experience to lead this country and all Barack Obama had was a speech. She threw a fellow democrat under the bus to a republican for her own political gain. That should have been enough to have her ass tossed out of the democratic party. But then she followed it up with the invocation of Bobby Kennedy's assassination as to reasons why should wouldn't drop out of the race when she was losing so badly.

Obama during this time definitely threw some elbows but nothing near as disgusting or hurtful as Clinton. He kept a promise during the primary to not use republican tactics against her or the affair or any number of shady and seedy things the Clinton's have in their past. And he nearly lost the primaries to keep that promise. She used fear against Muslims as a political tactic meanwhile there are some where around 6 to 8 million Muslim Americans in this country. People who were born here and have just as every bit of a right to the same freedoms and rights as anyone in this country. And some of which whom have served or are serving this country now in our military or army services. She also shamelessly rode the Reverend Wright issue like surfer on a wave during that media frenzy, knowing full well that Reverend Wright was the man who counseled her husband during the affair in the White House. She is a hypocrite and willfully flipped the table on anyone who called her out, and she never had to answer for one awful thing she said or did.

Now take Governor Palin. A person (I cannot not bring myself to call her a women and calling her a person is hard enough for me) who is 100 times worse than Clinton. She is worse because, while Clinton violated every decency code during the primaries and should have been expelled from the democratic party for some of her actions, her positions on most matters were still conducive to helping and fixing this nation get out of the hole we are in. Palin is a corrupt person with no common sense and zero relevant experience. And a person who should be treated fairly because McCain didn't vet her? A person who shamelessly pimped her family to promote her agendas but had her surrogates blast anyone as being disgusting for going after her family.

Sarah Palin has no agenda that benefits this nation. She threatens this nation with more religious oppression even though we have such things as Separation Of Church and State. She also has no respect for the people of this nation by willfully creating division and alienating certain groups of people. She uses fear as a tactic in more overt and open ways than Hillary. She willfully says that Obama pals around with terrorists even though her husband is a secessionist and her number one on the ticket has the whole Keating Five mess to deal with and his G. Gordon Liddy connection he has yet to answer for. The overt hypocrisies are so vast and so great.

She lied about not knowing that people at her rallies are screaming Obama is a terrorist or "Kill Him!" And she continues to fuel that fire while playing ignorant to the whole mess. She refuses to denounce people who use the N word against Obama or spreads hateful messages about him being a Muslim. Also the McCain-Palin ticket and the RNC are sending robocalls one of which did use the N word. And others which are scaring parents from their kids answering the phones because the messages are about Obama consorting with terrorists. Utterly vile and disgusting.



The RNC has resorted to this as well. Obsession a DVD spreading propaganda more misinformation and hatred.

Other shining examples of racism, bigotry, and flat out fear mongering hatred against Obama from the Republicans and the McCain Campaign.

Senator Kevin Bryant posted this shirt on his Blog.



Colin Powell racist backlash for his support of Barack Obama against his republican party.



McCain mailers sent out a day after he promised the American people in a debate that he didn't care about washed up old terrorists like Ayers. Oh and the robocalls some of which used the N word but mostly called Obama a person who pals around with terrorists.








Palin also supports a very anti-woman agenda. Her values are being pushed in the most oppressive and offensive ways to women. Forcing rape victims to pay for their rape kits. No abortions for rape and incest victims. And this ridiculous notion that abstinence is the best way to keep teenagers from getting pregant. The shining example of that ideology is her very own daughter Bristol Palin who is currently knocked up and awaiting a doomed marriage to the immature and grossly ill prepared baby-daddy, Levi Johnston.

Palin is also anti-gay. She now wants to have a Constitutional Ban on Gay Marriage. This even goes against McCain's own ideas that it should be a decision of the state. She also doesn't believe in civil unions which would guarantee rights to the partners.

This is pure hate and lies and they are willfully stirring this pot. Because of this, I refuse to allow them to be perceived as people. I refuse to play by the rules that I must respect them even though they don't respect me and continue to drive divisions in this country. McCain and Palin do not respect this country. They do not wish it well. And they do not wish for peace. The proof is in their actions and their words.

Now I realize that calling people names like bitch and cunt may put me in the same category as some of the hatemongers that support Palin and her hate filled agendas. Maybe I should be the one to start the unity and sing Koombaya. Should I just sit there while the republicans gut the democrats at every turn with some of the worst and vile tactics in campaign history and threaten this country with more economic disaster and my rights as a real woman in this country? Why are we constantly asked to play nice while the other side is getting away with some of the most horrible tactics in politics that's aimed at dividing this country and hurting people? They are real good at pointing the fingers but not answering the questions or discontinuing their own negativity. The hypocrisy never ends.

As I have said I do not respect them or even consider them people after the lengths and the lows they are willing to go to win this election. The division they are interested in creating. Like saying only small towns are pro-America. And that Northern Virginia, where I am actually from by the way, is not the real Virginia because they are not showing signs of voting for McCain and Palin.

Palin is corrupt. She tried to fire the man who wouldn't fire Wooten her ex-brother-in-law. And an ethics commitee found her guilty of abuse of power. Palin wanted to ban books. Not a whole list like rumored but more like a few she thought was questionable. When the librarian in question refused to she had her fired and due to public outcry she had her reinstated so now it technically doesn't show as she was fired. She eventually left because her life had been made a living hell after that mess.

Again I say Palin is not a woman, she barely qualifies as a person to me. I don't ask you or anyone to agree with me. It is my opinion. She makes me sick and she frightens me with her intentions for this nation. She refuses to consider all people of this nation equal. And I refuse to do the same for her. Maybe that makes me terrible. Maybe it makes me a hypocrite to some people. But words like Bitch and Cunt are putting it mild when it comes to her. And she proves her character to me. You don't have to agree with that.

I am also not frenzied as some of her supporters are. I also do not wish her ill will or harm. Well I do wish reincarnation was real. Then she could come back as a wolf or a polar bear. Her hate mongering supporters would wish me dead. They certainly wish my candidate of choice dead. But I do not support violence or threats of violence. Nor do I support outright hateful messages where children can see. You are entitled to your opinions but this goes further than anything I have ever said or done.

I am not asking anyone to agree with me. But one thing to be clear of. Everyone has a right to express their opinions. But no one has the right to threaten anyone with violence. If you want to say all the negative things you want about Obama, it is a free country and your right to say whatever you want. Even if it's racist and horrible. Just like some of you are shaking your heads right now about my useage of the word bitch towards Palin. Or my support of graffiti that calls her that.

But one thing to take note of. You don't see me calling Palin a white bitch. I don't attack her gender because of the word bitch. I am quite sure I have called McCain a bitch or something he has said done before a bitch tactic. Men and women alike can both act like that. It's their character and words. Racist attacks are full of shit. Call me a hypocrite if you want to but again I draw from examples and the very actions of the people I am against. I am not using scurrilous rumors and lies to prove my point. And certainly not race, bigotry, or gender to go after someone.

And a reminder to those who vehemently disagree with me. Check yourselves before your wreck yourselves. Before you start pointing the fingers at the other side get your own party in check. Demand McCain and Palin stop sending their hate mailers. And McCain supporters to stop threatening to kill Obama.

Demand that McCain denounces these people who are bigots and not the Muslim McCain staffer who had to come out and do the right thing by calling out a hater. McCain and Palin need to stop this not the staffers. Daniel Zubairi isn't even allowed to talk to the press about the awesome thing he did for the McCain campaign today.

Don't worry about some small time blogger who reaches hardly anyone and usually blogs about celebutards. Worry about the far more dangerous things coming from the republicans. Like this story here. A bear cub was shot and killed and dumped on a university campus with Obama campaign signs draped on it.

This sort of thing is awful and far more dangerous than simply saying hey Palin stop acting like a cunt.

Why would anyone want to hurt animals like that? This isn't for sport, or population control of an animal or for food. It's sick. I hope they catch who ever did it. These are the kinds of acts and kinds of things that make me call someone a bitch or any other nasty alternative because this upsets me so greatly. Animals do not deserve this. And peoples actions like this like McCain and Palin's are disgusting. This mania and sickness among some of the McCain Palin supporters is reaching a dangerous pinnacle. Worried about my use of the term bitch but not frightened at all by someone who would kill an animal or threaten Obama with death or even wish him death.

I think we have our priorities mixed up. I am certainly not worried about someone who calls Obama a terrorist or a socialist. It makes me sick but it is free speech. I also know how sad it must be for them to be uneducated and uninformed.

Forget Joe The Plumber Remember Barney Smith

Forget Joe The Plumber. He had his questions answered in full by Obama and still he doesn't know who to vote for or won't admit it. I think he was planning a gotcha moment on Obama. But oops he got his questions and concerns answered. McCain didn't answer his question. He used the guys name to pander during the debates. Fuck John McCain and fuck Joe The Plumber if he honestly thinks McPander is going to help him out.

 

So don't tell me Joe The Mother Fucking Dickwad Plumber was the big winner of the debate. All he made me think about were the real heroes like Barney Smith. Also as I am writing this, MSNBC just reported that old Joe The Plumber doesn't even have a fucking license to be a plumber. Come se dice "Republican plant" en espanol?

Remember Barney Smith!! He is the real hero.

The lifelong Republican from Marion, Indiana, lost his job at the RCA plant there in 2004 after 31 years of service. "Republicans talk about putting country first, but tell that to Marion, Indiana," he said. "They sent my job overseas. We need a president who puts Barney Smith before Smith Barney."

UPDATE: Joe The Plumber is kind of an asshole. He is keeping his vote private meanwhile he calls Barack Obama a scary Socialist. What a dick. He is totally a republican plant. He isn't even licensed to be a plumber in the state of Ohio.

Keith Olbermann Slams McCain

Keith Olbermann delivers a short yet very potent special comment to John McCain and Sarah Palin about inciting violence and insane mob like mentalities at their rallies

It's about time someone said what they were really thinking about this bullshit. Now if only McCain and Palin could actually be charged for inciting hate and threats against Senator Obama. Both Palin and McCain refuse to calm their crowds down. They even have their staff on the ground telling their people to link Obama to terrorism, bombings, and Osama Bin Laden. What these two are doing are doing and willing to accept in order to win the presidency is some of the most vile and disgusting tactics yet. And I thought Hillary Clinton took the Queen of Cunts crown for her comments during the primary season like "He is not a Muslim....As far as I know." And of course the infamous "3 AM" ad.

Headline Of The Week

Even if it's a made up headline from Vanity Fair, it still qualifies.

Here Comes The Kitchen Sink Fear Mongering

Here comes the terrorist charges, the fear mongering that Barack Obama is a Muslim Manchurian candidate, the usage of his middle name, and of course the Reverend Wright issue is rearing it's ugly head again.

All of this is going on in a last ditch effort from the McCain campaign as our stocks markets are tanking right before our eyes. This is their idea of getting tough. Well what about substance and talking to the American people about their fears this nation is facing?

At a rally today in Florida, Palin was introduced by the sheriff of Lee County, who made emphasis again on Barack Obama's middle name. Barack Hussein Obama. Fear mongering at it's finest. Hillary Clinton tried that same tactic too. It didn't work out too well for her. The only bonus she got out of it was that she got to stay in the democratic party. The democratic party was too big of pussies to call foul on her and remind her that there are 6 to 8 million Muslim Americans in this country and that those kinds of attacks are racist and bigoted.

From NBC/NJ's Matthew Berger and NBC's Domenico Montanaro
ESTERO, Fla. -- The sheriff of Lee County referred to Obama as "Barack Hussein Obama" as part of his introductory remarks before a Palin rally.

"On Nov. 4, let's leave Barack Hussein Obama wondering what happened," Sheriff Mike Scott told the crowd at Germain Arena.

Scott was speaking as part of a program before Palin's arrival at the rally. Palin was at a fundraiser in Naples, Fla. at the time. 

Back in February, McCain repudiated radio host Bill Cunningham's derisive use of Obama's middle name.

“I absolutely repudiate such comments,” McCain said then. “It will never happen again ... I never met Mr. Cunningham, but I will make sure nothing like that ever happens again."

[Source: MSNBC.com]

Palin and the McCain campaign spinsters are out talking about William Ayers and trying so desperately to bring this to the attention of the American people. Again to paint Obama as someone who associates with known terrorists. Tucker Bounds was on MSNBC today with Andrea Mitchell and she struggled really hard with him to get some sort of rational answer for these types attacks. This is one of the most ridiculous things I have heard in a while.

Palin is also trying to resurrect the whole Jeremiah Wright issue that plagued Obama during the primaries. Sadly for Palin, she may have opened up a can of shit she may not be ready for. She all but got a free pass from the media when it came to her church that claimed they could "Pray the gay" out of you. Or her pastor who prayed over her to protect her from witch craft. Which is more scary? Jeremiah Wright who says the Americans are reaping what they sow, or a woman who needs prayer to protect her from witch craft? The media refused to cover this the same way they covered the Wright situation. If she keeps this up, the media will have no choice but to talk about it. Unless the media would rather be racist and continue it's resurrection of Wright and avoid Palin's problems because they are afraid of the sexism charges and media bias claims.

In an interview with neoconservative columnist Bill Kristol, Palin said: "To tell you the truth, Bill, I don't know why that association isn't discussed more, because those were appalling things that that pastor had said about our great country, and to have sat in the pews for 20 years and listened to that -- with, I don't know, a sense of condoning it, I guess, because he didn't get up and leave -- to me, that does say something about character. But, you know, I guess that would be a John McCain call on whether he wants to bring that up."

May I remind you all that Cindy McCain also made the same promise. Should she not step out and get control of Palin for the sake of her own image?

Palin's anti-witchcraft protection. This is some scary shit. Thomas Muthee sounds like he speaking in tongues. It's frightening. 

They think they can get away with this last ditch effort fear mongering with actual if not worse skeletons in their closet. Palin going after Reverend Wright as a member of the Wasilla Assembly Of God. And going after Obama on a played out conspiracy with William Ayers, while McCain has voted for deregulations of Wall St., Keating Five, and his own advisor Rick Davis receiving payments from Feddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

Think people think. We cannot put these two lunatics named John McCain and Sarah Palin in the white house.

We are in some serious trouble. The media wants to talk about Palin's ridiculous lies and so called tough talk. Meanwhile the economy is tanking. The Dow fell more than 800 points and is still fluctuating as I write this.

These two are sinking everyday in the polls. This is cheap and pathetic of both Palin and McCain. McCain keeps saying that Obama thinks he is above explaining himself to the public when Sarah Palin won't even talk to the media and every time she fucks up, she claims they are the media elite. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Right now I am watching McCain attacking Obama in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Wasting our fucking time on this shit when we need answers to the economy. That's putting country first huh?

Please watch the second Presidential Debates tomorrow night. Watch McCain get his ass kicked for a second time. He will no doubt try to talk shit about irrelevant issues like Wright and Ayers, while Obama breaks down the economy and how to rebuild this country.

Who Won The Debate?

By all means, Joe Biden won last nights debate.

The spin factor today is all about how Sarah Palin looked. She looked good. I thought in the beginning she held her own with Joe Biden, but the nervousness she displayed, appearing shaky and down right petrified struck a chord in me. She was scared shitless. She stuck to her talking points and rarely strayed from them. She has zero ability to go off the cuff and appear natural or less spoon fed.

Joe Biden did exactly what was expected of him. He brought the fight to John McCain and not Palin. A nice bitch slap without publicly hitting her. He basically ignored her relevance. He didn't let her get away with cheap remarks and bunk talking points. He countered her at every corner. He did this with a smile on his face. Even got a little choked up on stage talking about his wife. He did this all without making Palin look stupid. Well he didn't point it out himself. She did that all by herself in the second half of the debate.

Once she realized he could counter every point she made, she got a little flustered. Her answers became less and less sensible and more of that erratic banter she is good at doing. Well, I am not sure if it's a good thing at all. She talks in broad circles and never answers any question. Biden caught her on that a few times. That was all he had to do. Not put her down, and not rub her nose in her stupidity. And most importantly, not let a missed opportunity go by to counter her. He did exceptionally well.

I have one major problem however with the media coverage and general perception of Palin. The bar had been lowered to the goddamn ground for her. So to say she looked well with those kinds of expectations was bullshit. Yes she looked good and handled herself okay, but not great. And looking good with zero substance and regurgitated republican talking points is not enough. It's sad that she is getting points merely for showing up.

It's sad that Biden had to really control himself from destroying her because she is a woman. That expectation and bullshit game of not taunting her or being condescending to her drives me nuts. She wouldn't hesitate and as a matter of fact tried numerous times with cheap shots at him. But he is expected to take it easy on her. That's not feminism. That's not fair and equal treatment. Politics is a nasty game. And she is clearly inept. Nothing should have stopped Joe Biden from ripping her up. But women who want their cake and eat it too or republicans hiding behind the guise of what they perceive as feminism, say you can't hit a woman, but we want our fair shots too. It doesn't work like that. But sadly the perception game is more important than delivering a substantive knock out blow.

Speaking of substance, Biden OWNED Palin on that. She did exactly what I said she would do. Talk in broad circles and take cheap shots. Cheap shots that fell completely flat. The whole White flag remark went no where just like the bridge in Alaska. I have warned that ignorant soul Sarah Palin, that getting into what is tantamount to a "yo mama" fight with seasoned rappers in their field, is not a good idea. She won't listen. She is bringing last years beats and rhymes to this years battle competition. She is out of touch. People are sick and tied of cheap shots and rhetoric. You can talk all the shit you want, but when push comes to shove the American people are finally realizing the full extent of just how fucked we really are. We are seeing the full range of exactly what 8 years of Bush brought us. Now we want some answers. And we want to see substance and plans on how to fix this mess. No one is interested in seeing the bullshit cheap shots.

Biden brought the facts and took the fight to John McCain. He stepped over Palin and left her sitting where she was with her pretty face, lipstick, and sad talking points that she had trouble delivering. He took the fight to McCain and proved that she is no match for him. He let her do the talking and make the case that she is totally and 100% not ready for this job. We already know that she is completely out of her league.

Sarah Palin

The Good.

1. Showing up.

2. Standing firm.

3. Not totally flubbing her crammed talking points.

4. Not pimping her family. I totally thought she would. She did at the end by bringing the baby on stage with her. But didn't pimp them in the debate. I am proud of her for that.

5. Talking about herself and her own experiences.

The Bad.

1. Trying to go after Biden without follow through. She attacked him, made cheap shots, but had no response to him throwing it back in her face. Part of what makes an attack so successful is being able to see it through. She did not.

2. The shout out to 3rd graders. While some people may find that cool, that was purely cheap pandering.

3. The White flag of surrender remark. Completely fell on deaf ears. No one was impressed.

4. The McKiernan gaffe. She called McKiernan McClellan. Enough said there. She proved that they told her what was going on and she had names and places to remember, but has zero grasp of what is happening in Afghanistan or any where else in the world. She crammed for a test.

5. Taxes. She went after Biden on taxes even trying to point out some things that Biden said on the campaign trail. She again failed on this point because shouldn't follow through. She threw it out there, Biden tore it apart and she had nothing else. She couldn't stick the knife in his eye at any moment. She jabbed at him and thrust it out there, but failed to stick him.

6. Talking in circles when she couldn't grasp the topic of discussion.

7. Her completely frigid nature when she was reading a talking point she wasn't sure of, and then relaxing on the podium when she had a question come up that clearly she had practiced with the McCain camp in the days before. Her body language help prove what her words were saying. That she doesn't know shit about anything that is going on with this country.

8. Her stance on gay rights. Even keeping gay marriage off of the table, she was crazed and down right mean about her lack of support for the gay community. But I am glad it was brought up and called to the table. People needed to see that she doesn't support one once of any issue gay related.

9. Winking at the American People.

10. The five weeks remark. Bad. Bad. Bad.

Ifill: "As Vice President, there's nothing you've promised as a candidate that you would take off the table because of this financial issue?"

Palin: "There is not, and how long have I been at this? Like five weeks?"

11. Asking for more power as the VP. After Dick Cheney, and her complete ineptness, this is possibly the scariest things that is going unnoticed today in the news.

12. Correcting Biden on "Drill Baby Drill."

13. Having the bar set so low she received points for not fucking up as badly as she did with Couric. That should be having more people worried than happy that she could walk of a bar set on the ground without tripping.

14. Talking about herself and not about McCain enough. Not sticking up for him or getting his back. Not countering Biden on his talking points against McCain. It was painfully obvious that counterattack was not taught to her at the McCain debate training camp.

15. She solidified her base, but totally pushed independents away. When you need every vote you can get, she failed in a big way to drive undecideds to her ticket.

Joe Biden

The Good.

1. He did not let Palin get away with cheap remarks. He did not let her misinformation go unopposed.

2. He got choked up talking about his wife and daughter and the American people. This is a good moment. A real touching moment. I thought this is where he needed to go if Palin tried to pimp her family, but he managed to bring it up anyway and it made for the most real moment in the debate. And I really hope emotional voters and women took notice of that.

3. He kept his cool and remained natural. He did not appear to be reading off of cue cards or that he crammed for this in the last 24 hours. Cool Breeze.

4. The immediate reaction from major networks like CNN and CBS declared Biden the winner.

The Bad

1. Not hitting Plain hard enough and really exposing how inept she is simply because she is a woman and it would look like he was beating up on her. Total bullshit.

2. Fumbling his words a bit. A quick shot before he went on stage would have solved that problem.

3. He didn't laugh out loud in many instances. He should have out right laughed at nearly half of the things Palin said because they were so so outrageous.

4. Not going harder on Palin with environmental issues. Not reinforcing that she doesn't believe Global Warming is man made. She mentioned it, but he missed a chance to slam her head on the podium with it. He should have gone after her drilling stance and how it effects polar bears. She mentioned that drilling doesn't hurt the environment. Polar Bears are effected the most by drilling.

5. He had a chance to push her on her religious stances. He didn't have to make fun of her or attack it. But if he asked or cornered her on Separation Of Church and State. She would have gone into an unintelligible diatribe about her beliefs. That could have easily scared the shit out of this nation.

The Quick Votes. These are not scientific, but gut reactions to the debates that should be taken notice of. They will change as the day rolls on, but as I am writing this this is where they stand.
