Racism at the Palin Rally in PA

B A N N E D R E D A C T E D-Dedicated to Westy (Art Talk Post)

When John McCain Came To The Rescue

charliem says...

Thats it.....this guy has just shown his true colors.

He would rather hold the entire global economy at ransom by injecting clauses into the bill that would help him with his campaign, and avoid a debate that he would get annihilated in, than to actually HELP the country by staying the fuck out of the bail-out deliberations.

They had an agreement just before he shows up. When he arrives, he has a meeting with a house speaker to see how they can change it to be more favorable to him...and now they dont have an agreement anymore.

...He has the global economy by the balls, and hes demanding to be put into office or hes gonna start squeezing...man that is just so dirty and desperate.

American hero my ass, hes a fucking traitor.

Obama's Veep Pick Predictions? (Election Talk Post)

choggie says...

My prediction would be folks seeing the true colors and motivation of Obummer, and he ain't gonna be no president, thank fucking Godz and Mortals, he's a fucking poison.
Besides, and this being the real wild card and crux of the biscuit.....A Black man in the White House, is too much for most Americans.....and if racism keeps him out, in the immortal words of another famous radical "By Any Means Necessary."

Fuck Obama. A charlatan cunt.

choggie says...

Ok so.....hmmmm, Quite telling innit, that the Jar Jar Blob Chog is represented by a link, and not part of KP's shmorgasbard heah.....Would that be because true colors shine through cheap veneer???....Great pic Gorgonheap....waist down Jar Jar was the only one with staff and minerals, well....Sam Jackson comes in a lengthy second.....

Evolution of the Eye Made Easy

11671 says...

The following dissertation on the eye is lifted from Chapter VI, Volume 2 of The Quest for Right, a 7-book series on origins based on physical science:

Difficulties of the Theory. Although the eye is chosen as the category to be entertained, the investigation could have chosen any one of a hundred other theories promoted in On the Origin of Species. The relative point is that, if the eye had evolved through fine graduations or modifications, the proof must lie with numerous intermediate fossilized specimens which could be laid down in a gradual continuum so as to show the development of the eye from its first appearance as a tiny break or opening in the bones of the skull to the development of a full blown socket or orbit. Nothing else will suffice, as the fossil record is all inclusive.

Darwin penned: “LONG before having arrived at this part of my work, a crowd of difficulties will have occurred to the reader. Some of them are so grave that to this day I can never reflect on them without being staggered; but, to the best of my judgment, the greater number are only apparent, and those that are real are not, I think, fatal to my theory.” In other words, if one is to believe in evolution, he/she has to disregard the facts; specifically, the indisputable assertion that all species are well defined in the fossil record.

Darwin continued: “These difficulties and objections may be classed under the following heads [that is, distinct topics or categories]: …why, if species have descended from other species by insensibly fine gradations, do we not everywhere see innumerable transitional forms [in the fossil record]? Why is not all nature in confusion instead of the species being, as we see them, well defined? …In looking for the gradations by which an organ in any species has been perfected [for example, the eye], we ought to look exclusively to its lineal ancestors [found only in the fossil record]; but this is scarcely ever possible, and we are forced in each case to look to species of the same group, that is to the collateral [parallel] descendants from the same original parent-form, in order to see what gradations are possible, and for the chance of some gradations having been transmitted from the earlier stages of descent, in an unaltered or little altered condition.”

Unable to find a transitional species; for instance, discovering a tiny break in the skull of any one of the several thousand species, which transitioned through minute variations to a full blown socket for the eye, Darwin looked to parallel descendents: a horse descending from a tapir, etc.

By Darwin’s own admission, geologists had not been unable to uncover a transitional species: “Amongst existing Vertebrata, we find but a small amount of gradation in the structure of the eye, and from fossil species we can learn nothing on this head [the subject of the evolution of the eye]. In this great class we should probably have to descend far beneath the lowest known fossiliferous [containing fossils] stratum to discover the earlier stages, by which the eye has been perfected…

He [the reader] who will go thus far, if he find on finishing this treatise that large bodies of facts, otherwise inexplicable, can be explained by the theory of descent, ought not to hesitate to go further, and to admit that a structure even as perfect as the eye of an eagle might be formed by natural selection, although in this case he does not know any of the transitional grades [as supported by the fossil record]. His reason ought to conquer his imagination [that is, belief in a Creator]; though I have felt the difficulty far too keenly to be surprised at any degree of hesitation in extending the principle of natural selection to such startling lengths.

If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find out no such case...”

It is a fact that Darwin attempted to overcome legitimate objections to his theory by doing a song and dance; that is, an elaborate explanation intended to mislead the reader and throw him/her off the path of the truth. For instance, instead of Darwin elaborating on how the eye could have been perfected while leaving no trace in the fossil record, he immediately began rambling about: the larva of the dragon-fly, the fish Cobites, fish with gills, swimbladder in fishes, branchiae and dorsal scales of Annelids, wings and wing-covers of insects, Pedunculated cirripedes, Balanidae or sessile cirripedes, neuter insects, rays, electric organs in fish, tail of the giraffe, the tail as the organ of locomotion in most aquatic animals, green woodpeckers, trailing bamboo, naked head on the skin of a vulture, savages, webbed feet of the upland goose, seal, sting of the bee, etc. The introduction of trivia, thrown up to block a difficult question, was a familiar song and dance routine throughout The Origin.

Darwin depended on the fact that, after taking two dozen or so detours of unrelated, yet, interesting tidbits of information the reader will have forgotten the head or category at hand. Said tidbits were also introduced in an attempt to prove that his wisdom could be trusted even above that of the Creator. And lest you have forgotten the head category at hand, it is mainly this: numerous intermediate fossil specimens must be discovered and laid down in a gradual continuum so as to show the development of the eye from its first appearance as a tiny break or opening in the bones of the skull to the development of a full blown socket or orbit. Anything less would be unacceptable.

In Chapter X: On The Geological Succession of Organic Beings, Darwin attempted to justify the lack of “numberless transitional links” found in the “same great formation.” The naturalist lamented that the lack of missing links to prove his theory was owing to an “extremely imperfect” fossil record:

1. that only a small portion of the globe has been geologically explored with care;
2. that only certain classes of organic beings have been largely preserved in a fossil state;
3. that the number both of specimens and of species, preserved in our museums, is absolutely as nothing compared with the incalculable number of generations which must have passed away even during a single formation.”

Not desiring to be outmaneuvered by the Creator, Darwin attempted to interplay other theories to shore up his theory of evolution. For example, he called upon the important part that migration must have played as the various species escaped supposedly "oscillating continents" which arose from the depths of the sea only to sink again. In Darwin’s mind, vast continents bobbed up in down in the oceans, sinking and, thus, causing mass migrations and covering any transitional links with sediment. The drowned continents then bobbed back to the top to start the process all over again. In a final attempt at one-upmanship, Darwin supposed that the damaging missing links, which must number in the billions, may "lie buried under the ocean." Why else could they not be found in the fossil record to support his theory?

An arrogant Darwin showed his true colors when he suggested that the reader ought to strive to cast down a belief in a Creator and accept his theory even if there was no proof. Darwin had done just that; he had cast God and religion from his mind, stating that “it was as difficult to cast down as "for a monkey to throw off its instinctive fear and hatred of a snake."

In summary, Darwin conceded that the fossil record of the time, the ultimate guide by which the theory of protracted graduation was to be judged, was adverse to his concept, but not without just cause: it was simply the result of an "imperfect," or incomplete, record. Darwin used the term “imperfect” as a crutch over a dozen times—one grows weary of reading it. Darwin's only hope of vindication was that one day intermediate links would be discovered.

Note: Every fossilized skull that has ever been unearthed possessed sockets for the eyes; there is no exception. Any trip to a museum proves the point.

Nader Throws His Hat in the Ring

quantumushroom says...

I admire Nader for coming right out and saying he's all-but-a-communist.

If only Hillary and B. Hussein had the same balls, along with Big Media* doing their best to hide their candidates' true colors (red and red).


* except those biased folks at FOX

Once Upon a Time in the West (opening scene)

choggie says...

buudzos down voted this, not because he/she doesn't like westerns, but because he/she got sand in the vagina because I down-voted his punk-ass, cop vs. skateboarder post, that netted him a number one slot in the published vids category, and 139 and counting,votes.....

you'd make a good fascist cop budzos, way to show yer true colors, and your ass......

Siftquisition: Quantumushroom (Sift Talk Post)

raven says...

>> ^lucky760:

All votes should mean something and that something shouldn't be that the voter was having a fit of cramps with no Midol in sight and wanted to take it out on the world at large. (Not referring to QM, btw.)


and also choggie's:

Joe's right, just cause someone posts a good viddy, doesn't mean your seething, ego-infused distaste for their track-record of dingle-berryness, should keep you from voting for it-that's obviously a girl technique,raven, that some of us don't play with......

Well, I gotta say, that's the first time I ever felt like I was spending my time on a website with a bunch of sexist jerks (basing that on comments of course and not on the plethora titty-laden vids that get sifted everyday). Thanks boys, for showing yer true colors, I'm sure Quantum Mushroom would be proud of you.

"Our Guys Should Talk"

Rotty says...

Thanks for posting this. I did see it and wondered if it would make it here. Conspicuously silent will be all the lefties that see a Bush conspiracy everywhere. Where is their ideology now? Well they can shove that "I'm better than you", smug attitude from now on; their true colors show.

On the other hand, it's always fun to watch the demoncrats eat their own...very entertaining.

The Trouble with Islam

Fletch says...

BRM, no kidding.

gwaan, I didn't make the video, as much as you wish it were so. Apparently, anyone who disagrees with you, or doesn't think as highly of your religion as you do, is "ill-informed". You just need a windmill to slay. True colors, indeed.

I guess being critical of the insanity here in the US is ok, but Islam is off-limits for some of you.

Who is Pat Condell? Apparently, nobody. Maybe we should ignore him and only give audience to those with loftier resumés.

Here's his reply to criticism of this vid for those who think he's being racist.

Ron Paul on the Federal Reserve

choggie says...

The next administration will show us the true colors of an oligarchy's dominance over another....semantics and their roots aside, what we have in America in a failure to communicate....this is due greatly to a calculated re-wiring of semantics by a dedicated and persistent effort on the part of Newspeakers.....constant barrages until phrases become implanted in order for tolerance, justice, and meaning to be programmed and manipulated....try these on for size, and decide what meaning they have for you:

Hate Speech
Right to Life
Millitant Fundamentalist
Necessary Downturn

So many on the left are quick to describe right as using Orwellian Newsspeak tactics and on the right they do the same, they are both using it to affect and to sell, agendas that are out of touch with all men, and the continuing battle of ideas and words grounded in contrived sensibilities and reasoning, is the box the people in the middle are kept in.....quite insidious, really, give people a team to root for, a coliseum to showcase and unite in a common arena...... the diversion to keep the rabble happy and fucking and making new meat-bots....and paying their bills with monopoly monies,happy to perform when whipped.....up....and diversion will keep them together.....



"The Rectification of Names consists in making real relationships and duties and institutions conform as far as possible to their ideal meanings.... When this intellectual reorganization is at last effected, the ideal social order will come as night follows day - a social order where, just as a circle is a circle and a square a square, so every prince is princely [and] every official is faithful..."

Confucius (as described by Hu Shih)

how about Orwell describing what is being done today, the young energetic minds sucking it up and spitting it out.....(Lot of it around here)
...."Its vocabulary was so constructed as to give exact and often very subtle expression to every meaning that a Party member could properly wish to express, while excluding all other meaning and also the possibility of arriving at them by indirect methods. This was done partly by the invention of new words, but chiefly by eliminating undesirable words and stripping such words as remained of unorthodox meanings, and so far as possible of all secondary meaning whatever."

When I smell shit, I say it stinks and demand it be dealt with, and look for the perpetrator now-a-days, to whine and wonder why they would possibly be expected to clean it up.......
