Don’t watch the news on TV if you want to get away from it all. Talking heads are flushed with excitement telling us about the machinations trying to end the government shutdown:

machination (noun)

1. The act of plotting.

2. A crafty scheme or cunning design for the accomplishment of a sinister end. See synonyms at conspiracy.

The crap going on in the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is big doings to the government stooges in the media. Reasonably informed Tea Partiers know it is nothing more than standard stuff; so who the hell are talking heads kidding! Parasites are getting paid for not working, the American people are going to get screwed, Tea Party conservatives —— not Republicans —— will get blamed, and nothing will be done about slowing down HillaryCare II. If it can’t be slowed down with purse strings there isn’t much chance it will ever be derailed by the current gang of racketeers running the government.

NOTE: When the Republicans controlled Congress, and the White House, not one parasite bureaucracy was shutdown, not even the Department of Education which Republicans claim is a priority. Hell, they could not defund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting; so there isn’t much chance they will do anything now. Nor will anything be done until the Tea Party has a lot more congressional seats.

Here are three coffee breaks:

Number one​

Now I won’t feel so idiotic when I make a spelling error:

Can you imagine what one of those coins is worth to coin collectors.

Number two​

Governor Christie could have appointed a Republican to fill out Lautenberg’s term. Instead, he went for an election. So blame Christie if Cory Booker wins this one:

There was intense and palpable animosity between the two, including the following exchange over the rollback of government programs like the Environmental Protection Agency, which oversees the cleanliness of Newark’s Passaic River.

“You may not be able to swim in that river, but it’s probably — I think because of all the bodies floating around from shooting victims in your city…” Lonegan said.

XXXXX​

“The only birds in Newark are the vultures the political hacks that are picking away at the carcasses of the taxpayers of that city,” Lonegan said.

Meanwhile Lonegan was hoping to pick up support when former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin joins him to campaign on Saturday, Kramer reported.

You gotta love a guy who says things like that. Maybe the Divine Sarah can put Lonegan in the win column, but I’m not counting on it. Sarah has her work cut out for her in a state where you could always have somebody killed for a buck & a half, but the average guy couldn’t get laid for a c-note during the Great Depression.

Number three​

If anybody knows John Kerry and Al Gore send them a copy of Christopher Monckton’s exceptional piece:

Let us knock the “population explosion” myth on the head. The totalitarian types are as wrong about the supposed danger of too many children as they were about global warming, breathing other people’s tobacco smoke, eating too much salt, or catching bird flu.

There has been no global warming for two decades; the risk of lung cancer from passive smoking is statistically indistinguishable from that of breathing fresh air; if you eat too much salt the body excretes it harmlessly through the kidneys; and bird flu is for the birds.

This is the Age of Scares. To the racketeering governing class, Scares are profitable. One can spot a Scare by three nannying catch-phrases: the lazy “scientists say,” the propagandizing “raise awareness” and the bossy “we must.”

When the three catch-phrases are combined – “scientists raising awareness of [insert Scare du jour] say we must [end freedom and spend trillions on more taxes and still more regulations]” – that is the moment to hold your pocket-book tightly and run for cover.

Over-population: Another non-problem

Tea Partiers please apply scare tactics to the debt ceiling hoopla.

hoopla (noun)
Slang.

1. a. Boisterous, jovial commotion or excitement. b. Extravagant publicity: The new sedan was introduced to the public with much hoopla.

2. Talk intended to mislead or confuse.

p.s “Scare du jour” is federal policy.

Cory Booker might be in trouble:

There is a real battle going on in New Jersey. Governor Chris Christie set an early date of October 16 for a special election to fill the Senate seat of recently deceased Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ). The advantage rests with Democratic Newark, NJ Mayor Cory Booker. The Republican is Steve Lonegan, businessman and former mayor of Bogota, NJ. Christie endorsed Lonegan. Better than nothing, I guess.

Booker, who has seen both unemployment and crime skyrocket during his administration, has the left fawning all over him nationwide because he is well-spoken, clean cut and black. Remind you of anyone?

XXXXX​

While the National Republican Senatorial Committee has taken a pass on supporting Lonegan -- no surprise from the RINOs there, Sarah Palin and radio host Mark Levin have come to New Jersey to campaign alongside Lonegan. One would think that the Senate fund would want to support someone like this, but one would think Republicans should do a lot of things that they don't.

XXXXX​

. . . Booker did not just raise massive amounts of campaign money from the thieves on Wall Street and then attack President Obama on behalf of those thieves. He did not just orchestrate a secret $100 million deal with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg that the Washington Post notes was designed to help those donors circumvent the public and "remake (Newark) public schools in the way they want to." On top of all that, he also leveraged his municipal office to personally pocket hundreds of thousands of dollars in corporate speaking fees. Additionally, in a move that makes James' larceny look altogether quaint, Booker convinced his tech-industry backers to bequeath him an entire company - and then tried to prevent the multi-million-dollar gift from showing up in campaign disclosure reports.

XXXXX​

But the media have also taken a pass on what may be the biggest story in this whole race: that of Lonegan's life, because what is not apparent in any of their articles about him, or the videos of their debates: Lonegan is legally blind. Despite that fact, he built a successful small business and became the popular mayor of Bogota, NJ. You can see a moving account of his story here.

Steve Lonegan Has a Real Chance to Win

Articles: Steve Lonegan Has a Real Chance to Win

Karl Rove’s Republicans not supporting Steve Lonegan tells me that, once again, they do not want control of the Senate because repealing the ACA is their biggest fear.
