A Silly Movie (and some Music)

After the chaos of yesterday in Santa Monica (more on this on Sunday night), I think it's time for a silly movie post.

If the Government is listening in: Remember, watch out for angry citizens.

Now back to your regular programming.

First, a music video harkening back to the 80's: 

And now, Monty Python and the Holy Grail!

For we are the knights who say "Ni!" 

Enjoy!

Tonight, I dance, and tomorrow, we discuss the world. 

The President in Santa Monica; He Listens But Does Not Hear

The President is coming to Santa Monica for a fundraiser (again!), I expect traffic will be crazy on the Westside all the way to Sepulveda and the 405 (Actually, when are they not busy?!?)

Here there be Traffic

This comes on the heels that the NSA was spying on Americans through phones and the 'Net.  

Add this atop the IRS and the Senator McConnell bugging and I fear we have fallen into East Germany.

I expect no Democrats will protest this breach into civil liberties (It was a tool to attack President Bush, not an actual principle to stand on) at the fundraiser or in Santa Monica or on KPFK.

To quote Orwell (again), “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”
[Note: I am not calling the President or anyone an Animal (even though we are all mammals), but I am noting that Democrats put aside their beliefs as long as a D is in front of their name]

But, my question is not for this Administration or the Democrats (they do what they do because of the Tarkin Doctrine -- hating Republicans means more then Governing), but for the staffers of the PRISM program:

Who gave the order?  

Was there any Internal Debate from within the Intelligence Community?

Does the Intelligence Community trust this Administration? Why or why not? 

Thanks for all your help.

Wish me luck as I head to the Westside today because a President who listens to our conversations, chooses not hear his constituents voices.

My question: What worries you more? The Administration or the Democrats complacency after their actions from 2003 - 2008?

Tribute to my Mom 2013

Today is my Mom's Birthday (as well as my ex-gf from DC, Rebecca). 

So, Happy Birthday! (to ky Mom and ef-gf Rebecca!)

Before I get to serious blogging, here are some pics of my Mom, wish her a happy Birthday too! 

(She has met the Other McCain and my mentor, Gary and still maintains her Old School Democratic stance which isn't too far from either of my friends)

Now, some pictures:

The Terry Rathbun Moneybomb (re-boot). Take back the Santa Monica Pier!

If you live in Los Angeles, the term "People's Republic of Santa Monica," comes up a lot in conversation. Heck, one of my favorite films, Southland Tales has Justin Timberlake protecting the Santa Monica Pier (and doing a great version of The Killers "All the Things that I've done,").

As a political activist, I don't just think in theory, but in practicality: How do we win back the People's Republic of Santa Monica? Simple, raise money and support a great candidate for the 41st Assembly District of California (whose district includes Santa Monica and points North on the PCH into Ventura County).

How much do we need to raise today to take back the People's Republic of Santa Monica? $650,000 in this moneybomb lasting until Friday Noon Pacific Time. Donate here.

If we can take back Senator Kennedy's seat, we in the Right Blogosphere can take back the People's Republic of Santa Monica. Let me introduce to you Mr. Terry Rathbun, candidate for the 41st AD.

Here is his biography:

Terry was born and raised in Los Angeles County and currently lives in Encino. In 1990, Terry left to join the U.S. Navy and served on active duty until 1999. During his time in the military, he served in theater in support of Operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield. In the year 2000, Terry returned home to Los Angeles where he attended college and currently owns and manages his own IT consulting business. Terry is actively involved in the Kiwanis Club of Northridge and coaches youth baseball.

And from Mr. Rathbun himself:
"I am currently involved in a project that brings robotics building to underprivileged youth at an elementary school in the San Fernando Valley"My conservative values are rooted in its 3 major principles:
1. Smaller government
2. Less taxes
3. Personal responsibility"
"As a former military man and a small business owner, I will bring principled and common sense leadership that is needed in Sacramento. It's time that the people of Santa Monica are represented to Sacramento instead of Sacramento and its special interests being represented to them."

I am honored to know Mr. Rathbun. He is everything we want in a candidate: veteran, small business owner, supporter of his community and willing to fight for Conservative values.


Let's raise $650,000 on this moneybomb to take back the People's Republic of Santa Monica. Angelenos and Californians will thank you in November. Again, donate here.The Valley endorses Mr. Rathbun for the 41st Assembly District. Please donate here for the Moneybomb.

Even RS McCain is helping!


[**Since this is a three day moneybomb, it will be in all the posts until Friday Noon PST. Again, donate here.]

And here's a video with Justin Timberlake in the 41st Assembly District, on the Santa Monica Pier:
