What do you think? » Alex I’ve been researching a lot of these and have come to a conclusion, people really need to stay away from all of these programs. They are only out to take your money I came across a good article that sums up all of these. There are basically a ton of fake blogs advertising these opportunities and all of them have hidden monthly charges."-Re: “Easy Google income” - is this a scam?
So, hidden monthly charges, fake blog sites-this is what the particular scam is in this case. Why do Google let this crap continue using their name?

6 hours ago from bookmarkletHouse Democrats promise health-care victory as Republicans remain opposed to bill - washingtonpost.com
Well, they’ve finally done it, and not as badly watered down as I had initially feared it would be. The Republicans and conservative leaning Dems objections repeated the same tired platitudes of irrelevant fears of ‘Big Government’ taking over the Health Care Industry and the by now cliched paranoid chant of ‘Will you be worth the cost of covering to the Govt.?’ but were unable to stop the juggernaut of change that the President’s last minute speech of encouragement set in motion. Obviously, now we still have details to iron out but the main thrust of it is done and I have to sit back in awe at Obama actually doing it, despite the concerted efforts of insane right-wing nuts to spread lies and misinformation. In one year, Obama has achieved more than Bush did in two entire terms.

What do we liberalists need?
No, I haven’t taken a leaf out of Dubya’s playbook in using the word ‘liberalist’- I’m just fishing for a word that best describes someone who can’t stand the utterly ugly and absolutely wrong right-wing activists who make the word ‘conservative’ seem like a curse when it should be anything but.
I find just as many people on the left as annoying and unpalatable, unhelpful and downright useless as I do the unthinking mob of traditionalists and non-thinkers on the right so I’m loath to come down and declare myself a Liberal or a lefty or any other ridiculous attempt at branding my feelings, my politics, my thoughts in a simple codified catch-phrase that any moron can understand, because I’m just not that straight-forward, like most of you out there.
But as I ramble on, trying to help to define myself, who I am, what I stand for and what I believe in, the arch-asshole ‘family’ and ‘conservative’ groups of right-wing greed-merchants continue to cloak their aspirations for nothing helpful, sane or even vaguely credible in buzz friendly catch-phrases that have been polled, tested and returned as positively impacting the general public by perceiving these groups as just wanting the ‘right’ things in life.
And they don’t. They’re all after something. Every single one of these groups of mental midgets wants something. The same old tired right wing platitudes are getting more and more threadbare and weak as social evolution takes us step by step away from the liars and the screamers like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck. Charlatans standing in the middle of the media circus ring are finding less and less people reacting when they crack their not quite so loud as they used to be whips.
But there are still too many who do respond, listen and get involved. And so the point of this article which is asking, what do we ‘Liberalists’ need to counter the filthy thugs of the right wing? What do we need to act and react swiftly and effectively against these liars, demagogues and panic merchants?
We need people to take responsibility for their environment around them, firstly. We need people to drop the cynical posturing and start asking the awkward questions. Remember, if you’re not with those clowns like the ‘Christian Family Alliance’ and other such named entities who don’t actually have anything to do with Christ or families then you’re against them. And if you’re against them, then we need to hear your voice. If you’re not one of them, stand up and be counted. By your silence you make it look like you’re giving them tacit approval. By your inaction, the world thinks there are more of them than there are of you. By your refusal to pick a side, we all lose and the evil greedy inhuman scum who will stop at no device, however foul or insane to forward their agendas driven by lies, broken ideas, intimidation and sheer ignorance.
They’re not afraid to organise on a mass scale behind the scenes to get their lunatics out there speading doubt and fabrications wherever there is hope. Their reason for being is to stamp on your face and kick away any of the freedoms that you enjoy today. Blacks, gays, liberals, foreigners, mixed-race couples, people who couldn[‘t give a shit about Jesus- all of these are their enemies. All of them. I am their enemy. I am one of the voices who speaks out against them. Everyone who has a brain and actually uses it is their enemy.
Be their enemy- be yourself- don’t let them continue to go about their business unchecked.

2 weeks ago from bookmarkletW.H. attacks worry moderate Dems - Yahoo! News
Bill Clinton proves himself correct once again in his comments in recent interviews when he said that the Democratic party has to keep itself from in-fighting and falling apart. They have everything they’ve fought so hard to attain and now we have sniping, disagreements and dissension in the ranks. THis needs to stop and bullshit moves like whining that the White-House is coming down hard on liars and manipulators like Fox News is disgraceful. If the party, and the President are to make any more bold strides in continuing to turn this country around, they need to stick together and not shy away from exposing the rabid right wing for the lying, cheating dogs that they are. Enough is enough- can’t bear to get your hands a bit dirty fighting back? Then leave the party. There’s the door, the one being held open by Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin. Bye.

sunday as we slide into another september
falling asleep in front of the tv - waking up to monstrous images of shark babies eating other shark babies in the womb, floating in a soup of gelatinous half fertilized eggs and bits and pieces of their dismembered brothers and sisters.
Like, Super-inappropriate!
Got superfast high-speed thingies back today after too long- called Cricket Broadband to cancel and actually got someone nice on phone- shocked! Cricket so far have had the worst fucking customer service I’ve ever experienced in my life but today helped - maybe they are finally getting their act together.

X-Men Forever
Gotta give Chris Claremont some kudos for this. I really hadn’t expected much out of his ‘retro-continuity’ series ‘X-Men Forever’ but so far, three issues in and he’s kicking ass and telling a good fast story without the typical Claremont excessed of bloated and archaic verbiage and repititive caption explanations and horribly stilted dialogue. Instead, he’s been able to wind the clock back to when he was young and full of ideas. Here’s hoping he can keep it up.
