Now that things have settled down a bit for me, I’ll be back regularly to let everyone know what my thoughts are, to inform people and even raise hell. After all, I’ve been told I’m a good hell raiser, and once again politics is the target. Specifically, the idiot Republicans. I’m not talking about the ‘old school’ Republicans who have kept themselves from selling out to lobbyists and the tea baggers. Unfortunately, there’s damn few of them left. NOTE: Once again, I must apologize to the regular idiots. This time, I’m going to talk about a special class of idiots. The Republicans.

Those weak Republicans who needed tea bagger support to get elected or re-elected to the House have spread the disease to virtually every nook and cranny in the US Capital Building. Speaker Boner used to be somewhat human, but has turned into a son of a bitch. Every time he appears to make some sort of policy statement, right next to him stands puppet master Eric Cantor, the majority leader. Sometimes they’ve been so close together, you’d think they’re about to make out. Those are the leaders of the House. They’re also going to have to fight their asses off to get re-elected. Why? It’s obvious their approval rating is lower than whale shit. So, in an effort to bolster their chances of getting re-elected, they have just demonstrated to America the Republican Party has been totally taken over by the Tea Party. What do you expect from the Republicans?

Remember how they all ran on jobs? All you saw on TV was JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! from all Republicans running for office last year. They also elected a new chairman, Reince Priebus, a guy whose name nobody can pronounce to run it. So what you saw instead of the usual infomercial, you saw infomercials about election Republicans who ‘promised’ jobs, and they even qualified they would make that promise come true. BULLSHIT. Since Boner took over, he’s been able to unsuccessfully thwart the repeal of the hideous Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell policy, unsuccessfully try to defund Medicare and approve 9 abortion bills that went absolutely nowhere. So why didn’t I mention any jobs bills? Because there were no jobs bills even talked about. Boner is all talk and no action on jobs. With unemployment hovering around 10% nationwide, much higher for the veterans returning home and in some states, and no jobs for them, Boner, that lying son of a bitch, has done not one damn thing. Nothing. However, he kisses Grover Norquist’s fat ass and will not raise any taxes on the wealthy to level the playing field. That includes the oil companies, and Boner will make sure the oil companies continue to get their subsidies. That dumb bastard Boner doesn’t realize the debt could be retired sooner if everybody paid their fare share. Class warfare my ass. What do you expect from the Republicans?

Now, the House Teapublicans have announced their agenda, and it’s sure to make those dumbass tea baggers real happy. Those tea bagging bastards really want to:

• Cut funding to NPR and Planned Parenthood

• Cut education and job training programs

• Repeal President Obama’s heath reform law

It’s so far beyond obvious these elitists are out of touch with the middle class. It’s also so far beyond obvious they’re doing all they can to fulfill Senate minority leader Mitch (I have no lips) McConnell’s pledge to do all they can to derail President Obama. There is about as much excitement for the Teapublicans who are running for President as there is in watching the toilet flush. They’re doing a great job running down the President, but none of them are offering anything that doesn’t want to make you laugh as to what they would do should be they elected. So what do you expect from the Republicans?

Now, the teabaggers and their corporate-backed cronies are at it again. This time, these out of touch, uncaring bastards are coming to Arizona. The New York Times has reported cowboy wannabe dumbass Dick Armey and that hideous FreedomWorks organization he runs have specifically targeted Arizona. Trust me; there are enough teabaggers already here in Arizona to shut down the Lipton Tea Company. The teabaggers PACs mission is not only to elect more Teapublicans, but also to elect the most extreme right-wing idiots they can find. They have already raised millions of dollars from those ‘undisclosed donors’ (Koch brothers) around the country. They have a firm belief that if they raise enough ‘special-interest’ money, then they can buy next year’s election. Couple that idiocy with the certifiably crazy people running this state. I have no doubt there will be a payoff. I’m thinking they should hold those bastards up for enough to pay off the $37 BILLION this state is in the hole. But what do you expect from the Republicans?

While I’m at it, will someone tell Herman Cain 9 9 9 is 27? Would someone tell Mitt Romney he may look better in a waffle suit? Will someone tell Rick Perry to shut the hell up since he’s done a helluva lot of damage to Texas? Will someone tell Michele (Crazy Eyes) Bachman to read the teleprompter only and not give instant responses to reporters? Would someone tell Rick Santorum that yes, Santorum means the frothy mix of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex, so just get over it? Will someone euthanize the audience at the last debate when they booed a gay active duty soldier in a war zone? Will someone tell Newt Gingrich he may have to pay for the bar stool he broke at the bar after the last debate? They had to reinforce it with lug nuts and he still broke it. Will someone tell Chris Christie about salad? Will someone tell the Midget Martian Ron Paul they found his spaceship? Of course they’re all the Republicans.

HEY BONER: WHERE ARE THE JOBS YOU PROMISED?

I certainly hope everybody remembers this at election time.

Once again, I wish to apologize to regular idiots who reside in homes who care for them. You people have truly special place in all our hearts.

This is about Sarah Palin is an IDIOT. Plain and simple. She is beyond clueless. She released statement regarding the horrible events that happened in Tucson. In it, she basically claimed she was a victim.

Then the day of the memorial for the fallen and the survivors, Palin releases another video. Now, Sister Sarah may call this video an apology, and she’ll be the only one who does.

What’s amazing is her claims that the words she says are fine, but what people say about her is the cause of the incident in Tucson. But that’s not what caught the attention of a lot of people. Her comment about blood libel got a lot of blood boiling. For those that don’t know what blood libel is, brace yourselves. Blood libel refers to a lie that Jews murdered Christian children to drink their blood or use it for baking matzoh. It’s a sick, vicious, idiotic thing to say. Adding to this, Representative Giffords herself is Jewish. Then again, Sister Sarah has proven herself to be a sick, vicious idiot. Will someone tell that slug of a woman she’s in a hole and to quit digging? Sarah Palin is an IDIOT.

In a video where she could have genuinely conveyed her thoughts and show some empathy for the fallen, she gave all of them about 35 seconds out of about an 8 minute video. The rest of the video was totally over the line and appeared she was throwing herself a pity party, it’s all about her, and how she’s been victimized once again. When Sister Sarah speaks, she only speaks to her supporters. It is now impossible for her to go outside of that group, which, by the way, is starting to get smaller, because she is not worth listening to. She is shallow, thoughtless individual who is trying to become President. Note to Sister Sarah: You won’t get there with your cutsey crap and silly winks.

Palin tried to show some political chops during the last election cycle. It was
Sister Sarah herself, who approved the gun sight icon over Representative Giffords’ district. Last March, Representative Giffords appeared on MSNBC saying about the consequences of that type of ad. Was it altered? Of course not. And we see what happens. Sister Sarah also said “Don’t retreat! Reload!” Here’s an analysis of what happened in Tucson

Will someone tell that woman she’s in a hole and to quit digging and go back to Alaska? Using incendiary language is obviously the mainstay for Sister Sarah as it is for gasbag Rush Limbaugh, Televangelist Glenn Beck, Self–important Sean Hannity and the others at the Fox Republican News channel. The head of Fox News, Roger Ailes, told all of the on air talent to tone it down, but they obviously didn’t get the memo.

Regardless of what President Obama says at the memorial, it will be in the same vein as Bush at Ground Zero, Clinton in Oklahoma City, Reagan after the Challenger, Roosevelt after Pearl Harbor and all the way back to Lincoln at Gettysburg. It’s what Presidents do, and by all counts, they’re at their best. As it will be with Obama.

Also in this mess, Speaker Boehner must’ve developed one giant ego.
It should make people wonder why he went to a lobbyist cocktail party disguised as a Republican fund raiser instead of going to Tucson. After all, a member of the House of Representatives is lying in an ICU after being shot point-blank in the head. Will someone tell Speaker Boehner there will be other cocktail parties?

It won’t be long before Sister Sarah will be out with another video proving to America she can stretch a pity party out longer than anyone. It won’t be long before the Fox Republican News channel talent will be louder with their vitriol. It won’t be long before the gasbag goes on the radio and tell us what he believes Obama should have said.

But the lasting thing today should be the memorial service. It’s truly unfortunate Sister Sarah spring her idiotic video which may overshadow it. Just as she planned. Sarah Palin is an IDIOT.

Hard to believe I’m up to part 6 of the GoDaddy sucks series. They don’t just suck . . . they really, really, really SUCK. They’ve made some changes in the way they compensate employees, but it may come along a little too late. I will tell you about the latest suck fest and an update on the wage theft lawsuit. I can tell you now that GoDaddy sucks.

Everybody knows Bob Parsons owns GoDaddy. From the grungy, dirty call centers to most of the buildings they’re housed in, he owns it. A billionaire, Parsons is not a wall flower or even a shrinking violet. His ego is a wide as the Grand Canyon. Bob Parsons is on the hook for absolutely everything.

For those who live in the Phoenix area and watch the local news or know about the local media news sites, you would have read about the gaudy GoDaddy Christmas party, once again held at Chase Field in Phoenix. That’s the place the Arizona Diamondbacks play. The soiree had guests like over-the-hill fitness trainer Jillian Michaels, permanent rookie driver Danica Patrick, the singer Jewell, racecar driver Michael Andretti, ZZ Top and others for about 6,000 people. Perhaps in a hint of his possible future incarceration for wage theft, he even had Boss Hogg himself, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio. I guess it is Parsons way of getting a nicer jail cell. Note to Bob Parsons: Wage theft is a very ugly thing these days.

Now for the younger crowd, most of which are enslaved in the dirty, dungy call centers, they were occupied with things like a carousel, ring toss and bumper cars. Yes, bumper cars at a Christmas party. But going even farther over the top, there was also a Ferris wheel. I got word from 2 people who went, that Parsons had very large diamond stud earring when he walked out on stage. Now I know what you must be thinking, why not, right? Well when you’re worth a few billion dollars, you go in style, regardless of how hideous you look. It’s been said you can dress up a pig, but it’s still a pig.

However, to his credit, Parsons gave away $1 million in to employees and also paid the taxes on each check handed out. He also gave a $500,000 check for the Southwest Center for HIV and AIDs. That’s the one that puzzles me. GoDaddy was about the most homophobic place I’ve ever worked at. Well, that’s all the nice things I have to say about Parsons, because things go downhill from here.

The people that had to work that night got 4 times their normal wage. I know that got a lot of attention, it sounds good and generous. My ass. What they weren’t told is that Bob Parsons isn’t paying the taxes on those wages.

The party cost more than $4.3 million dollars. When asked about it, Parsons said, “May as well spend a little money. Last thing I want to be, brother – the richest guy in graveyard.” Granted, I have absolutely no idea how much he had to drink before he said that. But most of the time, when a person has few drinks in them, the real feelings, the honest and the truth comes out. I think that can be summed up in one word: SNOB.

Pretty crazy to say something like that, especially when people can and will write about it. But it gets better now, because from the ‘did he really say that?’ department, we have this pearl: Parsons really likes Arizona. “I love it, are you kidding me?” Parsons said. “The labor laws are very good, the environment is very good and the weather’s wonderful. Life is short, you may as well be where the weather’s good.” He said the local employee talent pool as a good reason to be based in Arizona.

Now I’m glad I typed that without getting nauseated. I know different, because I was told Parsons decided to look elsewhere for employee talent because it dried up around here a few years earlier. I wonder if anyone had the balls to tell him that’s because some of the local employee talent won’t kiss somebody’s ass to get promoted. To hear Parsons tell it, all is wonderful. That’s because he has nothing but ‘yes men’ working for him. Now that’s an ego builder. GoDaddy sucks… boy do they suck.

Parsons statement about the labor laws are very good here is of particular interest. Parsons interpretation of Arizona labor laws and the federal labor laws are pointedly different from nearly everyone else. His bean counting lawyers of course, are in full agreement with him. Unfortunately, the judicial system, the Federal government and about everyone else on the planet see them differently. I really have the feeling Bob Parsons real life hero is Charles Darwin.

The wage theft lawsuit we have filed is in litigation and GoDaddy is apparently hell bent on using what is the stupidity file. All they do is to keep filing motions to dismiss and the judge keeps denying them. In the United States, wage theft lawsuits are increasing and they are being adjudicated in the defendants favor, and millions of dollars is being paid out by the former and offending employers. I discovered there are two employers who wound up going to prison on wage theft. Ah yes, there’s the reason Boss Hogg was invited to the GoDaddy Christmas party.

So here we are, GoDaddy still sucks, and they seem to suck worse than ever. They keep filing motions to dismiss a wage theft lawsuit that has federal and IRS interest in it. The judge keeps denying them. Good God Almighty. . . GoDaddy SUCKS!

This special comment is one I know the tea bagger crowd and Palinistas are going to scream at me, but I don’t care. I honestly don’t. It would be fine with me if she read this, but in all probably that will not happen. I realize there are mental patients who are classed as idiots and I want to apologize to those people. Sarah Palin is an idiot.

She assumed the Alaskan Governorship on December 4, 2006. Among the more well-known follies, Sister Sarah was all for the ‘bridge to nowhere’ and when the US Congress did all they could to can it, she was against that same bridge. On August 29th, 2008 she came to prominence. We have none other than John McCain to thank for this blunder. He must have been having what is known as a senior moment when he named her his running mate while in Dayton, Ohio. McCain selected her based on the urging of conservative commentators, such as Bill Kristol. That was 20 months and 25 days into being Governor of Alaska. Her foreign policy knowledge at that time amounted to her probably owning a Toyota. Her supporters said she easily beat Senator Joe Biden in the Vice President debate. If you call her idiotic and constant winking, looking down at her notes every 10 seconds and answered by changing the subject of each question, easily beating a seasoned US Senator, well versed in foreign policy, then you also believe in the Easter bunny. Sarah Palin is an idiot.

Sister Sarah is an idiot, and is supported by own her stupid comments. This is from MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann:

If that isn’t enough, here more stupidity:

If stupidity isn’t enough for you, how about some of Sister Sarah’s gibberish:

Enter a couple reality shows. Her slut daughter Bristol was a finalist on Dancing with the Stars. The tea bagger people kept voting for this has been who never was to keep her on the program, thinking she would win. Well, there’s a stroke of intelligence right there. If they thought she was dancing that well, why did the judges pan her performance week in and week out? Did you morons actually think you could pull this off without anyone even wondering about it? I would ask the usual ‘what are you nuts?’ comment, but we already know you are.

Not to be upstaged, Sister Sarah had to have her own program. Her highly advertised television program had first night gangbuster ratings. The second week saw her ratings had dropped 40%, which equates to about 2 million viewers. Now there are clips of her beating a Flounder to death. It would have been better television if the flounder had grabbed the club and beat her. Sister Sarah is also bolstering her inflated ego and lifestyle by having a program on the Fox Republican Operation Network.

Cut to November, 2010. Sister Sarah has been doing some sword rattling about running for the Presidency. In the last 10 days or so, she has increased the rattling. All of us have seen her say if nobody else who measures up to what she thinks they should be, she will run for President. By her standards, only she can run. A clip I saw on MSNBC has her saying she could beat Obama easily in a matchup. Even though Obama is down in the polls and there is about half of America who do not want him reelected, she would still lose to him. In all honesty, I really think Daffy Duck could beat this bitch. Sarah Palin is an idiot. A 5th degree moron.

In some of her speeches, it is obvious she’s never pre-read the speech before delivering it. She makes too many mistakes. One that came to light happened on November 24, 2010 when talking with Televangelist Glen Beck on his propaganda radio program. She actually told him that ‘We need to stand with our North Korean allies.” She has yet to retract that comment. She never does, so why should she stop now? Sarah Palin is an idiot.

Since she never retracts what she says, or corrects her misstatements, she tells women to go to hell:

I have noticed Sister Sarah doesn’t listen to anyone else, especially since she believes she knows everything there is to know.

It is clear at this point Sister Sarah believes she is the only one worthy enough to go against a sitting President up for reelection. Her supporters always she has the ability to turn lemons in to lemonade every time without fail. Actually I think her supporters have been turning wheat malt into sour mash and guzzling the stuff by the gallon. Sarah Palin is an idiot.

If by some strange, obscene chance Sister Sarah ascends to the Presidency, America will be forever damaged. Things would be imposed on the American people that if carried out, would make homelessness a lifestyle for so many. Only the rich would survive, and I’m talking the really, really, really rich people. For us regular folk, we would all be under not only her thumb, but the thumb of the tea baggers. I know some tea baggers read this blog and are beyond pissed at me, but I don’t give a shit. They are extremists. Sister Sarah is an extremist. America needs someone who is in the middle, not one to give in to an extremist ideology on a whim. For those of you who like Sarah Palin, you need to ask yourself if she is fully qualified to be President? What are her plans for the ongoing war in Afghanistan? Will she develop any alternative for health care? What about the middle class? How will she sit down with the leaders of other industrialized nations and come across as their equal? Will she wink at them like she winked during the Vice Presidential debate? A lot has been said about her not being ‘curious’ enough. Well, that didn’t stop George W Bush, did it?

Plain and simple. Sarah Palin is an IDIOT.

The repeal of DADT hinges on a lame duck session of Congress. Lest you all forget, the incoming crowd will not take office until January. I know some of you are demanding the newbie’s storm in and kick the losers out and get right to work screwing things up even more than they are now, but that will not happen. There are at least a couple hundred bills they have to work on either until the session is adjourned or they just give up on it. The pressure is on from a lot of sides, including the White House to get DADT repealed. Now is probably the last time to do it. When the Republicans take over, they’ll probably go all out and kick even those suspected of being gay out. Underneath all this, in the smoke and haze, John McCain strikes again.

When I published my special comment about Senator John McCain on September 23, I said he was a lot of things. I also said he was the stupidest person still breathing and he showed how narrow minded and hateful he really is when he nearly single-handedly derailed the repeal of Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell in the Senate on September 21st. Well, John McCain strikes again.

A couple days after I posted that, he was crowing how proud he was of his recent accomplishment and went on his merry little way to win his reelection to the Senate here in Arizona. Well, la-di-dah. His win has not changed him in the least. He’s still as delusional, bigoted and homophobic as he was before the election. And not just with us regular people. To stir the pot perhaps, his wife, Cindy McCain, the one with all the bucks, appeared in a NOH8 public service announcement about gay bullying. She appeared with Gene Simmons, Steph Jones and Dave Navarro, among others. In it, she said she supports gay marriage and the repeal of Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell. That was on some cable channels and on the net. For her, that’s all well and good. That’s when John McCain struck. She soon ‘clarified’ her comments on her Twitter page. She said, “I fully support the NOH8 campaign and all it stands for and am proud to be part of it. But I stand by my husband’s stance on `don’t ask, don’t’ tell.’” Oh yeah, John McCain struck again, bigtime.

Until Sunday morning. Senator McCain appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press. They discussed the survey and he is really unhappy the results of the Pentagon’s DADT study were leaked, because now he’s saying he won’t listen to those results. He said, “I will listen to our military leaders, and not a study that is leaked.” With that said, McCain obviously will not be happy until he has a study that categorically keeps gays out of the military. He proceeded to tell David Gregory, among other things, they should at least have a chance to review it and maybe have hearings on it. He has said he wants another survey taken. He was present when the Senate asked for the survey. He even had input. I’m beginning to wonder if he’s having hardening of the arteries in his old age. John McCain strikes again.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow shredded Senator McCain on Monday:

I checked on what Rachel said and found she’s absolutely right. McCain has been in the Senate since winning the seat in 1986. The only, ONLY bill that has his name on it is the now watered down McCain-Feingold bill on campaign reform. That’s it. McCain has been in an elected office for over 20 years and he’s not done a damn thing, other than be a pain in the ass.

Later last night, I started channel surfing and found The Daily Show, where John Stewart had a field day with McCain:

That was a fine welcome back to Washington Senator McCain. Senator McCain has made a history of being an obtuse member of the Senate. His claims of reaching out to the other side cannot be substantiated. He said he’s a maverick to everybody under the sun, in his failed campaign for the Presidency then claims he’s not. In the ads he ran here in Arizona, the word ‘maverick’ never appeared. We can only hope this is the bastard’s last stand. He’ll be 80 in 2016 if he lives that long. If he does and he runs again, we can only hope the population of Arizona has realized what a fool he is, a do nothing Senator and send him to the home. John McCain strikes again, and nobody’s happy this time, except him.

American Showman P. T. Barnum is often credited to have coined “There’s a sucker born every minute” which means there are, and always will be, a lot of gullible people in the world. The mid-term elections indicated Mr. Barnum was right not only right again, but psychic. When you add the tea bagger supported candidates, the stage is set for great theater. An updated definition of disaster is the Republican takeover.

Since the tea bagger crowd is half nuts, what better place to start than Alaska? Sister Sarah supported tea bagger Joe Miller, who is now protesting each and every write-in vote Lisa Murkowski has received, and there are thousands of them. The way it looks now, Sister Sarah lost this one. I think everyone watched to see when Nevada Senate candidate Sharron Angle would self destruct, which would’ve been funny to watch. Republican buffoon Karl Rove cooked the Delaware Senate candidate witch when he didn’t support her, then did, then didn’t, then did again. These three stooges did it to themselves, and one did a few years ago. Thank you Bill Maher for showing Christine O’Donnell clips on your program! Joe Miller, Sharron Angle or Christine O’Donnell the witch would not consent to interviews with anyone except Fox. The only interview Miller gave outside of Fox is when MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow did a fast walking interview through an airport in Alaska. A poll taken right after that aired on her program, Miller fell in the ratings. Three extremist tea bagger candidates actually are able to blame themselves for losing.

The Republican’s have pledged to “repair our economy and reclaim our government for the people…. dedicate ourselves to the task of reconnecting our highest aspirations to the permanent truths of our founding by keeping faith with the values our nation was founded on, the principles we stand for, and the priorities of our people.” As a sample of what they want to do, they want to stop tax hikes because they kill jobs, want to cut spending by repealing and replacing the Obama Health Care program with the 27 page blank page plan they introduced earlier this year. They want to cut spending, which is a given by both parties. The way they describe it, the Republican takeover is all peaches and cream.

What a load of crap. They’re telling America that they’re going to bend us over, give us a good screwing, and won’t even give us a kiss. They fail to mention their wants to privatization social security, ensure Barack Obama doesn’t get reelected, eliminate jobless benefits and make Bush’s tax cuts for the wealthy permanent. They way they don’t fully tell you what their true agenda is standard operation procedure. Helen Keller can even see how the Republicans don’t give a shit about people who aren’t their friends, aren’t big business, aren’t Wall Street. They are giving the middle class, people in need, the aged and everyone else the finger. Make no mistake; this is the true Republican takeover.

To add to the problems the Republicans are going to have is the newly elected tea baggers. It is by people waking up the more extremist tea baggers were not elected. The tea baggers have their own agenda of fiscal and election reform which are not remotely close to the traditional Republican Party. Elected tea party candidates are on record saying they are going to do everything they can to push their own platform. Their stated platform sounds normal, but if you take it apart, they appear ready to push America back to the 1950’s. Their constantly repeated notion of using the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution to ensure they get their message across will make their supporters the militia the framers had in mind.

The new House Majority leader, Tan Man John Boehner (R, OH) has made so many statements what their plans are, and without mentioning their true agenda, it’s beyond obvious he’s changed his mind many times. It would be nice if he finds one that works. The House Chamber will be the new theatre of drama with the tea bagger representatives. With this sure thing, MSNBC and CNN will have not have a problem filling their time with this one. Where as Fox will be in their glory. I just cannot say Fox and news together. Fox is no longer a credible source since they are now a Republican operation. The network president can’t make a $1M donation to the Republican Governor’s Association and then claim their neutral. Maybe Rupert Murdoch is showing symptoms of hardening of the arteries or something, but that blew any hint of neutrality. So did some hosts staging fund raisers on their programs on that network and appear at events. And there are suckers that believed that line of shit all the way. Who’s the fool now? You asked for it and you got it, a Republican takeover.

As interesting as the action in the House will be, we now have a hypocrisy problem. On 12 November, the hometown newspaper of Senate Republican leader, Mitch McConnell (R, KY) hometown paper published a bombshell. Whoever would’ve thought Bush’s basically low selling book would prove another Republican’s true color of hypocrisy? Evidently, McConnell urged the President to bring some troops home from Iraq to help the party from having their asses handed to them in the 2006 mid-term elections, while at the exact same time blasting the Democrats for calling for the same thing. McConnell cannot have it both ways. He hasn’t denied it because if he did, he’d make GW Bush out as a liar, which we already know he is. How many interviews will McConnell do before he pulls the plug on them or comes clean? I can guarantee he will not be asked on Fox, and he won’t appear on MSNBC or CNN.

Everyone should know, their announced and unannounced agenda does not start until they officially take over in January, 2011. It’s time for the Republicans to put up or shut up. They will blame everybody but themselves if it doesn’t work, while forgetting they are the ones who were the big players in creating the mess we are in today. The Republican takeover. The world will be watching.

People demanded change, and they got it. There are those who will be very happy with the change, but how many won’t? If you voted for change, unknowing exactly what change you wanted, you cannot blame anyone else, but you’ll have a lot of company. The buyer’s remorse from this recent election will linger on until the next election. You are the suckers. You can take heart knowing P.T. Barnum coined that term with you in mind.

The Republican takeover. We’re fucked.

As you know, I shred GoDaddy on a regular basis with their pay practices, their micromanaging and their love of ass kissing young employees among other things. Not even to mention the lawsuit against them I’m a named plaintiff in. But this short essay is about their hosting. I can sum it up in three words, GoDaddy hosting sucks.

Any and all GoDaddy customers and employees who read this blog, and I know you’re there, there is a customer critique of GoDaddy hosting included.
The reason I know GoDaddy employees are reading this is because more than one enterprising individual found the hosting ip is at GoDaddy and they find it shocking that I shred GoDaddy on a regular basis. Not to mention the fact employees have commented on this blog, but I’ve received email from some of them about this blog. If you have hosting at GoDaddy, you may want to consider the downtime, the errors, the aggravation to call in and be told it is YOUR problem and not theirs. I know some of you will agree with me when I openly state GoDaddy hosting sucks. Those who disagree with me on this one also believe in the Easter Bunny. Trust me, GoDaddy hosting sucks.

This blog is hosted by a GoDaddy, and comments are made about all kinds of errors when the submit button is clicked. I want all of your to know, it is absolutely no different from me. I get the same 505 errors you get. I get the same ‘page cannot be displayed’ error you get. And the one that really pisses me off is the one that constantly comes up, ‘Internal Server Error’ which happens at least three times a day, each and every, when I approve comments. Trying to submit a post, if I get less than the two usual errors, I want to have a cocktail to celebrate.

On my Facebook page this week, I came across a clip that every GoDaddy customer should see. The guy certainly has been victimized and he’s telling the world about it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIZ5CDnvQ1s&feature=related

Please feel free to copy and paste that link and send it to those people you know or suspect host their site or sites at GoDaddy. GoDaddy hosting really blows.

On 11 September, news ran rampant about GoDaddy on the market for $1B. Of course they denied it. In the next breath everybody read where they hired a private firm, San Francisco based Qatalyst Partners to arrange a sale. Then the price went up to between $1.5B and $2B. In the interim, some rather interesting things happened. So here we are, the fifth in an apparent no ending series known as GoDaddy SUCKS.

Leading up the sale, bad news did slap them in the face! It was reported that for the week of September 6, 2010, GoDaddy experienced a net loss of the Global Market Share. With that, their claims of skyrocketing market share are as welcome to them as an IRS visit. Oh… I’ll get to that shortly. Not to worry, I will again explain how GoDaddy SUCKS!

Since it is obvious even to Helen Keller, GoDaddy is operating in the red. They have to do something great to attract buyers. Now I know people who are still there, and they are dwindling in numbers. What I’ve found out is that GoDaddy has gone on a cost savings craze and has cut spending. Of course along with that, they’ve cut employees, cut back on sales contests and any extraneous spending. One has to start wondering about certain expenditures at this point. For example, the multi-million dollar over the top Christmas party each year. The millions of dollars it costs for NASCAR sponsorship. More and more people are starting to realize that GoDaddy SUCKS.

The most obvious buyer was Google. Conventional thinking is when they got a look at GoDaddy’s accounting, which we’ll say is rather creative as a minimum, they ran the other direction. Then the company who owns Network Solutions was very interested in buying GoDaddy. However, I’m sure when they, and other interested parties have learned about http://nodaddy.com which has the lawsuit and other allegations. You will also see there, that the IRS has decided to also investigate GoDaddy’s ways of doing business and how they aren’t paying people correctly. The likelihood of a few people doing some time in the house of many doors is looking pretty good at this point. All this is starting to come to a head and they’ll have to shit or get off the pot. GoDaddy REALLY SUCKS. And sooner or later, GoDaddy is going to see that for themselves.

Then abruptly, Bob Parsons pulled out of the auction for Godaddy.com that had bidders from multiple private equity firms. The kicker here is that Bob Parsons or his representatives gave any reason why the auction was suddenly pulled. This certainly raises a lot more questions than any bullshit answer they’ll provide.

Now while this is going on, the hokey employer of the year is being floated around the Phoenix area once again. Of course Bob Parsons will again be nominated. I’m here to tell you, anybody who votes for him should have their head examined. GoDaddy SUCKS.

Right on the heels of National Coming Out day, there is great news! After a 17 year disaster called Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell has seen the discharge of more than 14,000 people from the armed forces, the end of that disaster may be near. To be discharged for just being gay still boggles the mind of clear thinking people. Yeah… The end may be near

Today, U.S. district judge Virginia A. Phillips orders the Defense Department to ‘immediately to suspend and discontinue any investigation, or discharge, separation, or other proceeding.

Here are five short, shattering paragraphs:

(1) DECLARES that the act known as “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” infringes the fundamental rights of United States servicemembers and prospective servicemembers and violates (a) the substantive due process rights guaranteed under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution, and (b) the rights to freedom of speech and to petition the Government for redress of grievances guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.

(2) PERMANENTLY ENJOINS Defendants United States of America and the Secretary of Defense, their agents, servants, officers, employees, and attorneys, and all persons acting in participation or concert with them or under their direction or command, from enforcing or applying the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” Act and implementing regulations, against any person under their jurisdiction or command;

(3) ORDERS Defendants United States of America and the Secretary of Defense immediately to suspend and discontinue any investigation, or discharge, separation, or other proceeding, that may have been commenced under the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” Act, or pursuant to 10 U.S.C. § 654 or its implementing regulations, on or prior to the date of this Judgment.

(4) GRANTS Plaintiff Log Cabin Republicans’ request to apply for attorneys’ fees pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412; and

(5) GRANTS Plaintiff Log Cabin Republicans’ request to file a motion for costs of suit, to the extent allowed by law.

The end may be near!

Even though Judge Phillips did not state when this injunction would become affective, the Justice Department has 60 days to appeal. We can only hope they do not appeal it. If they do, our next hope is the lame-duck Congress will appeal it. They still have enough democrats on board to do just that. Should the Republicans gain the majority and reverse this, one can just imagine the shit storm that will rain down upon them. Although, those hateful Republicans most certainly would deserve it and it would be fun to see, it would not be a good thing for America.

Of course, there is also the possibility of a stay from the Ninth Circuit Court, but in the past they’ve appeared to be somewhat liberal in their decisions from time to time. If one of the judges on the Ninth Circuit even farts, you have the likes of bloated gas bag Rush Limbaugh, self-important Sean Hannity and resident lunatic Glenn Beck climbing the their own walls of insanity, all claiming they’re activist judges who should be voted out. The end is not near close enough for these three ego-driven, prima donna dipshits.

If this is the end of this hideous disaster called Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell, there will be a very loud sigh as the relief of not being found out is removed. There will be no more asking. But you can tell. There will be no more discharges because of homosexuality. Unfortunately, we would no longer get to see McPain making a total ass of himself saying they don’t investigate. Of course we may get to see him real red in the face and watch his veins pop out and maybe even have a stroke when he’s railing against this.

Also who will be stoking the boilers of anger within are all those anti-gay hate groups … oh, sorry … religious based organizations. You’ve heard of Focus on the Family for one. Now, I’ve heard from some of them after my National Coming Out day posting and will address their, shall we say comments. No, I’m not going to approve and publish your childish, hateful, idiotic comments, and it’s because you don’t approve of me. No, I will not appease you and your silly baiting, I’m letting you have it right here. No, I won’t burn in hell as many of you fools have told me. Now that I’ve answered their questions, I have a few more words… All of you people for the most part are trying to tear down this country for your own self-important dreams and desires. You sick bastards are a sorry ass bunch and you can’t change me, but you attack me and then turn around and ask for a donation. As I said, I won’t burn in hell as you say, but you sure as hell will. You really are a bunch of sick bastards!

The end may be near. Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell may hopefully be a distant memory by the end of this year.

Yeah, the end may be near

Despite the bullying deaths of young gay people, we still exist and thrive. Gays exist everywhere in life, even in the military if they’re silent. I was silent while serving for 20 years. It wasn’t easy being closeted and serving and it’s gotten even tougher with the internet. The internet is the main place people meet for dates and sex. The military is all over those sites looking. Coming out is not an option in the military yet. I’m still writing letters and making calls to make that happen. It’s National Coming Out Day.

The first National Coming Out Day was on October 11, 1988 as a celebration of the second gay march in Washington D.C. one year earlier. Developed by Robert Eichberg and Jean O’Leary, its purpose is to promote government and public awareness of gay, bisexual, lesbian and transgender rights and to celebrate homosexuality. Just think of how many people you know are gay. Now multiply that number by about 12. There are more gay people walking among you than you realize.

Many people choose this day to come out to their parents, friends, co-workers and themselves. National Coming Out Day is a time to publicly display gay pride. I am using this day to let you know who I am other than someone who writes words that educate you, entertain you and sometimes make you think. Its National Coming Out day, and I, Alan Reeser, your blog owner/writer is coming out. I am gay.

In current times, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) has taken this up and is promoting equality. They’ve done a lot for the gay community and have taken some hits for it, as well. Many of the action in Congress, i.e., the hate crimes law, parenting, etc., are a result of the HRC. If you visit their site, http://hrc.org you will see all they do, and it’s quite impressive.

As a member of the HRC, they were kind enough to make post entry on my Facebook page this morning:

Alan Reeser is gay and National Coming Out Day is tomorrow. Donate your status and join me in coming out for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality by clicking here: http://bit.ly/9OyZam via Human Rights Campaign

It’s National Coming Out day.

If you’re gay, come out, provided you can be comfortable. If you’re in the US Military, forget it for now, but hopefully not much longer.

If you’re questioning, ask someone, look online.

If you’re being bullied, ask someone for help. It does get better!

I’m fully aware there are people who believe gays are dysfunctional weak people. But they contend gay people can be changed. That has caused a few suicides and so much unhappiness that many of those religious-based idiotic centers have shut down. It cannot happen. You cannot change your sexuality. For you who think people like me can change our sexuality, do you think you can change yourself into a clear thinking person?

But this is a day to celebrate. It is National Coming Out day.

Be Proud. I am.
