HEALTH MY ASS!

Now this is the part that Tubularsock, each time, has to step back and ponder why the American population is so dense.

It is not that it is so complicated and it is literally exposed RIGHT OUT IN PLAIN SITE.

It isn’t that it is covered up in some tricky way or anything but there it sits like a cougar on an overhanging rock SINGING IN ENGLISH, ALOUD.

WOULDN’T YOU’D THINK THEY WOULD NOTICE?

Oh. And it doesn’t have to do with political party affiliations either. Both Republicans and Democrats don’t even think twice about it. They always AGREE and just VOTE YES.

Yet the American population just seem not to care or if they do care they don’t do anything about it. It really is a remarkable mystery when you stop and realize that there are 322,762,018 of us VS only 535 of them in Congress.

So with ALL HEALTH LEGISLATION whether it was pre-Obama-Care, Obamacare, or TrumpDon’tCare Care the same thing is agreed upon.

Now you know this. Everyone knows this. And when it is brought up in any conversation it is ALWAYS dismissed with “well that’s government for you”.

Tubularsock has been sent chain-emails about it.

Tubularsock has been sent petitions to be signed against it.

Tubularsock has been sent protest gathering information to stand in opposition to it.

Even in this last election cycle at a town hall meeting when this topic came up a Congressman’s answer was to suggest that if you have a problem with this THEN RUN FOR OFFICE if you want good quality health care.

And he even got some laughs.

Well, Tubularsock wasn’t at this town hall meeting. If Tubularsock had been at this town hall meeting Tubularsock would have said:

 

OVER THE TRUMPAZOO EDGE?

 

 

 

 

DRAPE IT IN RED, WHITE, AND BLUE!

Well it is crystal clear that Orange Tweet has sold out to the neocon war machine. And because of that we sure can’t work with the Russians!

Nope! It’s the old fucking Clinton-Bush-Obomber-Zionist-Wahhabi Conspiracy all over again.

This could all be settled if we BOMB ISRAEL FIRST and then SAUDI ARABIA! But can’t do that because that would clear things up and where would we sell our fucking bombs?

No, business is just too good.

Oh, by the way Mr. and Mrs. Merica, send your children to their death to protect OUR NATIONAL INTEREST. Fucking morons ……. drape it in red white and blue!

KOREAN BARBECUE?

 

What a wonderful world. No really! Tubularsock wakes up every morning and with strong coffee in his cup walks out onto his underground deck adjacent to Tubularsock’s top floor corner office in his underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland CA. and settles down to the insane news cycle once again. (see Bunker Tour)

What a grand view!

Have you noticed that recently the cops aren’t executing vast numbers of Black citizens on the streets of our grand nation? Tubularsock figures that the fucking cops have seen the light and now with Small Handed Orange Boy as President we all have “overcome” and given “peace a chance”.

And damn, our Muslim citizens are having a reprieve and EVEN THE JEWS are having a respite from having their cemeteries desecrated. Like dead Jews really give a shit!
But none the less it is all clear!

And “for fucking sake” even ISIS, you know, our boys are doing just fine. The U.S. is pumping them with armaments and chemical weapons “hidden” through Saudi and Turkish connections. All’s good!

Oh sure Assad is bad and we need to send 59 missiles at him with only half hitting their target. You only come to realize we missed when you heard from Orange Boy’s mouth that ALL OF OUR MISSILES HIT THE TARGET! A dead give away!

EXCEPT FOR THE ONES THAT KEPT THE AIRBASE FROM OPERATING THE NEXT DAY!

But forget all that!

What is important is not even the RUSSIANS! We are almost past that.

Now what you are being told is to be fearful of is NORTH KOREA!

Are you scared yet?

The country that HAS NO LIGHTS as viewed from satellite vision.

The country that sends off rockets that fail and fall into the sea.

The country that is run by a REAL “yellow” skinned Asian boy child similar to the United States “orange” skinned boy child!

THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE TOLD TO FEAR!

North Korea ……………………. give Tubularsock a break. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!

All Tubularsock can figure is that it must be a very fucking slow news day!

But here’s a hint ………….

If you deliberately poke a hornet’s nest ……………

What is the OBVIOUS response?

THE AMERICAN ALBATROSS ABOUT OUR NECKS

PRESSTITUTES PERSONIFIED!

Once again, American Journalism is not only lacking but just doesn’t exist …. if it ever did really, to tell the truth.

We can all recall the famous dictum, “You furnish the pictures and I’ll furnish the war” spouted by William Randolph Hearst.

You see, Hearst’s reporter, the famed illustrator Frederic Remington wanted to come home from Cuba in 1897 because nothing was happening …. so he sent a cable to Hearst stating, “Everything quiet.  There is no trouble here.  There will be no war.  Wish to return.”

And Hearst’s response was the above pictures-war statement.

And if you look at this briefly it really provided a template for “GOING TO WAR” ever since. Seriously! Every war since, the precursor, always and still is false, sensational news that prepares the public for war! Oh, a well placed, dead mutilated kid, is a must!

Perfect, really!

You see, Hearst grasped onto the Cuban revolt against Spain in 1895 and saw it as a way to increase his New York Journal readership and pull readers from his rival the New York World.

Hearst’s tactic was to run increasingly sensational stories. TRUE OR NOT! And he went with stories of violence, sex, catastrophe, and mayhem which later became characterized by the term “yellow journalism”.

And quickly to put this historical adventurism of Hearst in context to our current Syrian Chimera, Hearst was able to actually corral the public into believing that the sinking of the USS Maine (which, by the way, blew up from unknown causes, maybe a coal fire) was blamed on Spanish treachery by the New York Journal. Within three months, the United States was at war with Spain in what became known as the Spanish-American War.

And “Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain!” became the American public’s sentiment promoted by Hearst’s paper vigorously publishing stories that helped create and foster those feelings.

See the parallel? DAH!

The FACT that “yellow journalism” is the major type of journalism left today goes a long way in explaining why the general public is just so plain trusting and stupid.

True, it may not be the only reason for this stupidity but it definitely promotes it!

PRICELESS – SYRIA!

Tubularsock was discussing Syria was a group of “fellow travelers” while sitting in Tubularsock’s top floor corner office of the underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland, CA last evening. And yes the Wild Turkey flowed amidst some of Afghan’s finest, piped in sort-of-speak.

And Tubularsock was expressing his desire to interview one of those TV news readers playing journalist and ask them point blank if they “really believe” what they have been paid to report.

But alas, Tubularsock hasn’t access to such an individual. Oh well.

HOWEVER, it has been said that “the Universe provides” one only has to ask.

Yeah, right!

Well, by golly with a hat tip to 1EarthUnited  https://1earthunite.wordpress.com/2017/04/09/ex-uk-ambassador-to-syria-questions-chemical-attack-it-doesnt-make-sense-assad-is-not-mad/who lead Tubularsock to this video and a big thanks to the Universe, Tubularsock’s question was answered and it is priceless!

Watch her eyes when the Republican Congressman refused to go along with the established narrative.

And even better when she attempts to align the Congressman with RUSSIA AND ASSAD when he refused to buckle.

And then her closing tone …………

THANK YOU, THANK YOU ………. TUBULARSOCK’S QUESTION IS ANSWERED!

(ok, Tubularsock already knew the answer anyway and so did YOU!)

A “free press”?

Sure, as long as you follow the established narrative.

It is a perfect example of RUBBER-STAMP-JOURNALISM!

GIVE TUBULARSOCK THE BLOTTER!

SAVE THE SYRIAN CHILDREN!

For Fuck Sake, Tubularsock left the front door open in his top floor corner office in his underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland, CA (see Bunker Tour) and all the sarin gas news drifted in.

So really, without Tubularsock having to go searching for WHAT HAPPENED in Syria the information fell right on Tubularsock’s top floor corner office underground bunker desk!

Which only goes to show you that the ancient sage’s comment, “if you stand in the same place long enough the truth will come to YOU!” is so true.

So lets begin:

First the Russians have reported that there is a chance that an arms warehouse may have been bombed by the Syrian Air Force and exposed chemicals that the “rebel” forces use to make bombs.

Now before your doubting mind takes off remember that it was the Russians that got the Assad Government to destroy their chemical weapons back in 2013 and Syria has been monitored by the U.N. ever since.

So the Assad Government doesn’t possess chemical weapons.

BUT the rebel terrorists (our guys) do have stock piles of chemicals to make chemical weapons that WE (GOOD OL’ AMERICA) sold to them. AND the CIA also trained these mercenaries on how to handle and use them.

The chemicals came by way of Turkey (our ally) and according to Seymour Hersh, it was Killary that approved sending Libya’s sarin gas to the Syrian Rebels! And that is in part what the entire Benghazi mess was all about. Stevens, the ambassador that got himself killed, was a gun runner for the U.S. and the American Embassy was a CIA front.

And when you get down into all this, Killery approved a plan to use the sarin gas and blame Assad as a pretext for the West going in and bombing the fuck out of Syria to SAVE THE CHILDREN!

Truly, Tubularsock couldn’t make this shit up if he wanted to!

So with that information, just why did Trump bomb Syria?

And more than you’d like to think, hand size has a lot to do with it!

And also before we bombed Syria the U.S. warned the Russians that we were bombing the airfield so as not to create an “incident” with the Russians. Of course, the Russians warned the Syrian forces and all is good!

Interesting that a reconnaissance photo that Tubularsock was viewing from the Tubularsock Spy O’Camera shows the bombed out base BUT TWO THING are clear.

ONE: There are no airplanes on the field.

And TWO: The buildings were bombed BUT the air field is fully operational.

So, roll in a couple portable trailers and the air base is functional again.

And THAT, cost the American taxpayer 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles ……. $1.59 million (2014 price) each, for a total of $93,810,000.00 for the missiles ONLY. Care to add up the rest like the ships at sea and the support teams and the cost of the dinner at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s private gulf club, which between bites of New York steak Trump called for the bombing escapade.

Pretty cheap if you ask Tubularsock! And you can see that the cost to the American taxpayer of $60 million on Mar-a-Lago trips for Trump in just his first year in office is really a savings in comparison.

But we can’t, as a nation, spare a dime for preschool education from the free loading public!

Hey, it all has to go to SAVE THE SYRIAN CHILDREN!

BULLIES, BULLIES, BULLIES

Now Tubularsock likes the Russians. Oh sure, Vlad’s a shit but look what “we’ve” got for leadership. Ok, leadership isn’t exactly correct when the White House looks more like a cage fight with no holds barred!

But this entire Russian baiting is just the neocons attempting to drive smoke up Trump’s ass.

Now that is not to say that Trump is some innocent bystander. He’s not. His business relations with the Russians are all mixed in with the Russian mafia and oligarchs which may be for all practical purposes the same batch of characters.

But playing the Russian-card is just hyperbole bull shit. The only “THREATS” from the Russians are the ones we create from poking them with a stick. And you all remember what your mother warned you about running with a sharp stick!

Once again, it’s the old EXTERNAL ENEMY trick.

THE ONLY THING WE HAVE TO FEAR IS THE FEAR OF US!

TROJAN TRUMP
You know what Tubularsock LIKES about Republicans?

And it is not that they don’t spin it to the Exceptionalistic-American-Brain-Dead that they are doing it to make America Great Again, they do spin it that way.

And the Exceptionalistic-American-Brain-Dead BELIEVE it the same way as they believe that TIDE makes cloths brighter!

You may not like this Trump crowd but they are up front in their directed destruction.

Unlike the Democrat’s elite, you know the Clinton-Obama Cartel, that fucks you over but does it behind the facade of “caring”! You know, “A Humanitarian-War”.

And their followers too believe in TIDE.

So all of this whirlwind of Trumpism coming down the tracks every news cycle is just dust thrown in our eyes. There is a constant barrage of distraction.

So you may want to pay attention to the man BEHIND the curtain, Steve Bannon. The so called “brain” behind the voided-headed-Trump.

You see Steve, it has been revealed, LOVES WAR and as a result he “attacks” life AS A WAR. He is a big fan of the Chinese military treatise The Art of War (孫子兵法) by Sun Tzu.

This little treasure of war has 13 chapters giving “directions” on how to go about WAR.
And not to labor over YOUR next war but it is interesting in light of what is currently going on to read how it is done.

For example Chapter 2, explains how “success requires winning decisive engagements quickly”. Hence, the rapid signing statement fury. In Trump’s case it was the appearance of fast action to something that looks impressive in the press but in fact will be in the courts for some time. It wasn’t really a slam-dunk. But appearance “trumps” reality!

And Chapter 3, the source of strength of a strategic attack is defined in terms of unity, not size. Explaining why the inner circle is seemly a tight group.

Now this is just a hint from Tubularsock of how things are being orchestrated but we may not like the tune.

Every few minutes the 24-hour news cycle whips up everything from the Russians are the cause of EVERYTHING to Vice President Pence doesn’t dine with women without his wife being present.

The important thing is to look a bit deeper because what seems to be HEADLINES is the least you have to worry about!

Now on the brighter side, you may not really want to know. That of course is very “normal” for the dysfunctional American family. Daddy is fucking his daughter but we all go to church on Sunday to keep up our “loving” family image in the community. That has been the modus operandi of the American public, as so obviously displayed on 9/11.

Oh sure, three buildings fell down at free fall speed into their own footprint and most of the “terrorist’s” were from Saudi Arabia ……… let’s bomb Afghanistan!

So all of this just goes to show you that the obvious is obvious but denial makes you feel better. THAT’S AMERICA FOR YOU!
