NOBODY ASKED ME BUT

Posted on February 5, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

We offer observations on the human condition from a 21 year old mind trapped in an 81 year old body.

NOBODY ASKED ME BUT

One never has to ask a child twice to jump up and down.

I prefer watching faces on TV rather than listening to the babble of words coming from them.

Newt Gingrich never met an idea that wasn’t his.

So nice to see children eating breakfast with mom and dad.

It has been years since I last saw a rainbow. Where have they gone?

I insist on very hot coffee in the morning.

To think is to require solitude.

Republicans are concerned about Big Government but have no problem with Big Money.

A boss explaining to employees is a boss who is certain.

I have always loved bananas.

Mystery of life: why are there dark clouds?

I encounter few who think as I do. I wonder if that is an example of good or bad news.

There is a moment when it hits 1:15 p.m. when all is quiet.

To be intelligent, one must know the origin of how mind evolves.

To hope is to be alive.

Hospital Gourmet Headquarters

Posted on February 1, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

New York Presbyterian/Weil Cornell Hospital epitomizes what Ron Paul and Republicans desire in  a health care system. In a recent announcement it stated to the world: ‘New York Presbyterian is dedicated to  providing a single standard of high quality to all of our patients. The West Wing of the hospital which requires a few thousand dollars to get room service offers its patients the following daily menu:

Chef soup Of Day

Pappa al Omodoro

Appetizers

Heirloom Tomatoes

Hand Sliced Smoked Salmon

Entrees

Prime All Natural New York Strip Steak

Or one can get the Catch of the day.

I somehow doubt if Medicare patients get the same meal option. But, this is the equal medical care system desired by Ron Paul. All receive equal treatment, but some get a little more equal.

Newt Carpet Bombed

Posted on January 31, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

Newt Gingrich, who is convinced there are no politicians who can match his imaginative ideas is rather upset. If Newt had the money it would be poured out in order to attain victory, but there is this rich spoiled kid named Mitt who has all the marbles. “Governor Romney has the ability to raise an amazing amount of money out of Wall Street. And he has a basic policy of carpet bombing the opponent.” Gee, I thought Newt wanted to carpet bomb Barack.

Sarah Palin remains a friend of Newt to the very end. “

“So,I Made A Mistake-Is That A Mistake?”

Posted on January 28, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

Given Republican presidential contacts with God it is difficult to imagine any ever made a mistake. After all, if one has been anointed by the Almighty, it is mighty unusual to make a human mistake. During an interview with Diane Sawyer, Barack Obama was open concerning his deficits.  ”I make a mistake, you know, every hour of the day.  there are always times when you are learning on the job. And, I have no doubt that I  am a better president now than the day I took office.”

He want on to denounce Mitt Romney for calling him the “food stamp president.” He noted the food stamp program guidelines were developed under the administration of former President George Bush. “I don’t put people on food stamps. People  become eligible for food stamps.” One might note today over half children in schools get free lunch. I suspect that is due to Republican policies leading to unemployment.

Special Forces Not Special Armies!

Posted on January 27, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

A decade ago when terror groups blew up American buildings on 9/11 former President George Bush ordered the armed forces to invade Afghanistan. When bombers mainly from Saudi Arabia did the bombing our former president decided to invade Iraq. Yesterday, a Navy SEAL operatin freed two Western hostages held by terror groups without loss of life to those in the raid and some deaths to those holding hostages. According to accounts, MH-60 Black Hawk helicopters swooped in, SEALS stepped out, confronted heavily armed terrorists and apparently wiped most of them out in order to free the hostages. No American casualties were reported.

Perhaps, we are witnessing the dawn of a new American approach to handling terrorist groups. The use of Special Forces ends possibilities of invading foregin lands, having American troops battle in foreign cities and makes less likely these forces will create international problems of cultural differences.

Smaller is not only better, it is not only less expensive, and most important of all, it is more successful.

Russia Warns World About Syria

Posted on January 20, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

The Russian government — that means Prime Minister Vladmir Putin — warned European nations and the USA if they  continued to support dissident forces in Syria it ran  the risk that it might lead to “a very big war that will cause suffering not only to countries in the region but also to states far beyond its boundaries.” Foreign Minister Segei Lavrov, made clear his nation would  veto any UN Security proposal to use force in order to end the regime of President Bashar al-Assad.

Lavrov admitted that there have been calls “for sending Arab troops to Syria” which means Russia would be unable “to prevent this.” If Arab nations want to overthrow Assad, the responsibility rests with themselves and Russia will stand apart from doing anything, but it will prevent UN Security Council action.

Super Mark To Rescue

Posted on January 18, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

Mark Wahlberg is an actor. He performs in films which have extensive action and by the end of the film, Mark has wiped out the bad guys and lives happily ever after. Apparently, Mark thinks if you can beat bad guys in films it is the same as fighting people with real guns. He recently discussed with the media what he would have done if a passenger on a plane seized by terrorists on 9/11. Frankly, I do not know if what he says was written by a script writer, but it certainly comes across as the words of a warrior, first class.

“If I was on that plane with my kids, it wouldn’t have went down like it did. There would have been a lot of blood in that first class and then me saying, ‘OK, we’re going to land somewhere safely.” I assume Mark will play Superman and wipe out all the bad guys.

I wonder why Mark is not in the US armed forces. They sure could use someone like him who fears no terrorist and always triumphs.

Limbaugh Says Republicans Are Socialists!

Posted on January 17, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

Rush Limbaugh the mouth that spews bullshit is upset at fellow Republicans who have emerged as secret Socialists seeking to reduce our fair capitalist nation into a slum of poverty. Rick Perry attacked Mitt Romney, darling of Wall Street, for heading a takeover company that purchased companies, fired people, and walked away with millions. Rick put it this way, “the idea that you come in and destroy people’s lives, the idea that you come in just to make a quick profit, tears these employees apart.” In his view, this is “vulture capitalism.”

Imagine blaming Wall Street for any problem when true conservatives know all problems were begun by Democrats or made worse by them. Rush tore into Rick for using the “language of leftists. This is the way Fidel Castro thinks.” Then again, Castro created poverty, Wall Street under Republicans created poverty, maybe we finally understand that poverty is created by leftists and some disguise themselves as lovers of capitalism.

Urinate On Dead And Shock World

Posted on January 13, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

War is hell. War transforms decent people into beasts of prey. Some claim war makes men better than they are. Ask anyone who has been in combat if they emerged a better person and the response will be a loud, “NO!” A group of US Marines on service in Afghanistan decided after the combat was over to pee on dead Taliban soldiers. Soldiers were identified as belonging to  scout sniper team assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines.

The 40 second video captures the Marines joking,  and urinating as some idiot takes their picture. The video was uploaded by someone who calls himself: semperfiLoneVoice. The Marine motto of always being faithful certainly did not mean by insulting the bodies of those who opposed your forces in battle.

Former POW, Senator John McCain summed up the reaction of all decent people by saying the “video makes me sad.” Amen

Clock Moved Another Minute!

Posted on January 13, 2012 by Fred Stopsky| Leave a comment

Shortly after the first use of atomic bomb weapons in World War II, the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists unveiled a Doomsday clock. The assumption was eventual mass use of atomic weapons would result in the annihilation of the human race. Scientists set the clock at 11:2 p.m. As the years passed, gradually the clock moved closer and closer to the witching hour when all on earth would be gone. Ironically, during the Cold War the concept of “Mutual Destruction” made both sides careful about pushing the atomic bomb button.

Now, in light of global warming(sorry, I forgot according to Republican belief nothing has changed) fear of biological weapons and growing possibilities that rogue nations could posses an atomic bomb, the Bulletin has decided to move hands on the clock to 11:55 p.m.

This is one midnight we all hope will not strike.
