Beckerheads On Parade

Riot Kitty, September 1, 2010 at 11:30 PM: I think that adjective really says it all.
skyewriter, September 2, 2010 at 1:11 PM: I wish I could take credit for it, Riot. Ed Schultz... but it's good, huh?
Anonymous, September 4, 2010 at 10:06 PM: If you build it, they will come.

Too bad, really, as they should all stay home with their fifes, flags, and anxiously furrowed brows.

What in the hell is happening to people?
Chris, September 7, 2010 at 6:45 PM: REALLY hard to watch! I feel like there is a faction in this country that is contributing to the tea party....a more financially secure and intelligent faction.....and as this video shows, taking advantage of a less than intelligent, racist, scared, and uninformed part of our society!
skyewriter, September 8, 2010 at 10:24 AM: Hi poietes:

I feel the same way; the most stunning thing was how *woefully* misinformed people were. It's like they get their information playing "telephone:" "my sister told me, her neighbor told her..." Since when did gossip and rumor become reliable sources? Oh, right, Beckerheads...

Hi, Chris:

It is really hard to watch and I think you are right. Corporate interests (big banks and big oil) have much more to gain from a country divided than a country progressing into the 21st century. I have a pretty strong notion that if we were to look at whose throwing money at these sad folks, it would be them.
diana, September 23, 2010 at 2:34 PM: Wow... Now I'm more depressed than ever. I thought it was bad out here in parts of California. Now I see I have no idea what America is like. I'm too sheltered out here.

Best line in the video? "I learned everything I need to know about Islam on 9/11."

Wow.
skyewriter, September 24, 2010 at 2:29 PM: Hi, Diana!
Sorry to leave you feeling blue... this is rather depressing, but I have to believe that common sense will rule in the end. Also, that those *with* common sense will actually use their protected rights to vote and get out there in November!

Thanks for stopping by...
Chris, September 27, 2010 at 3:28 PM: I forgot to tell you that I had posted this interview on my FB too!!!! I just thought it was soooo telling....Faux News should be ashamed of themselves for filling these people's heads with misinformation....they are not off the hook with me!
skyewriter, September 27, 2010 at 10:46 PM: YAY, Chris! It should be viral!
Sidhe, October 8, 2010 at 6:43 PM: Yup, hard to watch, going to try to finish but I just had to comment upon the first chicks get-up, guess she hasn't read the US Flag Code, how freaking disrespectful to the flag of the nation that she pretends to care so much about. As I try to watch the remainder I'm sure I will be subjected to a myriad of baggers inappropriately displaying our national Ensign.
Sidhe, October 8, 2010 at 6:58 PM: OMG! I now need to stab my ears and eyes out, I think it is all summed up by, "all I know is what my sister told me..." yup, that appears to be the standard.
skyewriter, October 9, 2010 at 12:29 PM: Sidhe! Sidhe! Sidhe! [imagine me jumping up and down]!!!

I knew you were coming home sometime soon... I am so glad your are safe State-side and away from that dusty, hot, and dangerous Afghanistan!!!

I feel a phone call coming on... miss you so much my dear friend.

I really appreciate most of you who have taken the time to read my posts and leave your comments. While I may not agree with what you say, many good things come from the discussion of issues that are difficult and contentious. You never know when there will be common ground, or, at least a better understanding of who we are and why we believe in things in the way that we do.

A few of you have used the privilege of commenting to indulge in cyberstalking, mobbing, going way off topic, to advertise your blogs, and to rant about not much of anything or to harass (or all of the above). I realize that is a subjective determination, but this is my blog and you are my guest.

Think of yourself as being in my home and how you would act if you were a guest in my home and I will do the same.

Please do not copy my posts in their entirety and give yourself credit for the post elsewhere on the internet. If you do want to use a post from November Fifth, then you should post a portion and link back to the post here. If you don’t, you will run into a copyright problem.

Please do not use comments at this blog solely for the purpose of drawing traffic to your blog or solely to further some agenda whether it relates to the post or not. For example, inserting your URL in a comment that does not relate to the post. Another example would be advocating right to life in a post about Somali pirates. One has nothing to do with the other and if you make posts to further an agenda that is off topic, you may risk having them deleted.

I want you to enjoy using November Fifth. I also want you to obey the law while you’re here and not interfere unduly with anyone else’s right to enjoy it.

In short, you’re my guest here. I value your opinion and I am happy to provide you with a forum in which to express it, but if you abuse my hospitality or use November Fifth to injure someone, don’t be surprised if I throw you out.
