Too expensive. A microchip injected prenatally, saves time and money.



The Alex Jones radio show is available on cellphone. Bet Louie has it on speed dial.

You can tell what a wingnut will say by tuning in to hear the brainwash du jour playing in their heads. That's why they never give links, it's just voices in their heads.

How about blending butter with vegetable oil? That would be all natural, don't know about margarine.

Someone told me to whip olive oil and butter, but talked to someone who said when you whip it, you are adding air that has hydrogen... So IDK!!!

BTW, Rand is... I'm trying to stop bashing that guy... Okay, I'll post on another thread to keep myself calm. Let me know about the other, though,, TIA.

Mr. Personhood, National RTW Law, Mountaintop Mining is Cool! got all the memes in there! KochKudo!

Let's see:

The FEDS ar coming after your doughnuts! Because they didn't come after your guns yet!

Still beating that ACA dead horse, huh, Rand? We so loved you voting for cut VA hospitals, food stamps, the sequester, the shutdown and cackling with your buddies about how much fun it'd be to 'manage catastrophe.'

Meanwhile, your state leads the way in red states signed up for the ACA. Boofuckinghoo, Rand.

Oooh, and at the low blows:

Unelected bureaucrats - gee, Rand, didn't you know that is to prevent them discriminating?

And bureaucrats - had to get that old moniker in. Kiss my foot, Rand.

Wanna see them trotted out in a criminal lineup to be inspected by who, you, you little Napoleon - who are you giving orders to?

To see their weight? Gee, stay classy there, asswipe. Honestly, dude, you ain't no Brad Pitt.

A nanny state, uh? Guess those old diatribes from Rush really did the job. 'Womb to the Tomb' is what you're counting on to resonate in those empty skulls - and you really do insult your state, acting like donuts and big gulps is such a priority.

Speaking of Wombs there, pal, get your nosy state outta the lady parts!

And ow, snap, enforce it on government workers, first! You know, those guys who actually have degrees in nutrition, science (say the word, Rand, c'mon, you can do it, just say.. sciii-ennce!) and may be real doctors on the payroll instead of faux doctors, uh, like yourself.

Oh, and by the way, do something anatomically impossible to yourself. Since you're so concerned about sex...

Okay, I'll get off Rand's case for a while. But I truly despise this lying Kochroach.

From the UK's Guardian. Heart-stopping moments:

Is the proliferation of wildly unhealthy foodstuffs an act of rebellion against the healthy eating movement? Would you eat a Krispy Kreme doughnut burger or deep fried Coke?


Cups of deep fried Coke. Ping-pong ball sized chunks of batter made with Coca-Cola syrup are deep-fried and served in a cup topped with more Coca-Cola syrup, whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and a cherry on the top.

Maybe in moderation and after working out for a few hours. We all gotta die of something. I'm always amazed at skinny poeple with high cholesterol who drop dead with HBP. It just doesn't seem fair. But we gotta try.

That's a good story. But in my area, which is urban, it's very hard to find donuts, period.

And they are almost as pricey as Starbucks, so it's best to get them at the grocery store if one is having a donut attack...

In about a dozen mile radius the ratio of donut shops to Starbucks (or others shops competing with them) is about 20:1.

Closest Dunkin' charges over a dollar for one plain glazed donut. A dozen is twenty bucks. So, they are off my list, and it's kind of a bummer, but people's tastes vary from one region to another.

Now, get out in the far suburbs, and Krispy Kreme has cars lined up in the parking lot and the drive through window. They aren't cheap, but then they are in a pricey area.

I really enjoyed that diner story, it must have looked like something right out of a movie.

I found this picture here, apparently in NYC:



Makes me want a donut right now. Fat chance of that, though...

But I am still not angry at Alan Grayson. Big tent. He's doing the work of a populist. I met with Kucinich who was critical of several things, but when some wanted to bash Obama in the meeting, he shut them down FIRMLY.

He said Obama's doing his job and he was doing his and Obama has much different responsibilities and info than a Congressman. Questioned about war and UHC, he said said Obama did the best he could with what he had ans called Obama a true progressive. He didn't have to say that, you know, we were his supporters.

So if Alan gets some money, which he does not keep, but gives it to progressives that are running to what's needed, I have no objection at all. I am sure he doesn't keep it, he is no grifter, but a millionaire who is true to his roots.

He and Obama are not on opposing sides, despite some who would love to see that. There is an effect caused by net activism, even if it's sometimes perjoratively called slacktivism. If it does not get out the vote, does not change the states, it's ego and not getting anything done.

Grayson was elected as part of the Obama wave and I'm sure there is no animosity.

In fact I've seen a number of times when Obama gives all sides enough time to holler and then the votes change. Not because he is regressive, but he needs us to speak up.

Remember when he tossed some changes to SS out and made it radioactive, so much that the GOP had to answer to their voters, who told them 'no way in hell?'

Obama took the hatred, but got the job done, all right. Not happy when credit is not given, or trash is thrown at Obama and Kerry that has been whipped up by media, but Grayson, for all we know, chatted with Obama before he gave his speeches.

PBO doesn't need strokes for his ego, it's all about what he can get accomplished in his eight years. He's on a mission and it's not about him. I doubt any of this is about Alan, either.

They are not enemies, not even if some want that. When Grayson came out and said stuff about the NSA, the fact is that Obama had said most of that first.

Those who want to cheer from the gallery at a battle between Democrats that does nothing but demoralize the voters, need to think ahead. Grayson and Obama have. It's the mission, not the men.

That's what I always heard, too. Had a friend who worked at a donut shop many years ago...

Cops got free coffee and donuts since their presence helped to keep robbers away. Usually one squad car at a time for coffee breaks.

Guess Starbucks would be the ticket now, but I don't see the cops parked there. Maybe they don't feel the need to encourage visits. Don't have many donut shops where I live now.

But the police are not ashamed of eating donuts. Brain food, ya know:

Noam Chomsky on Ron Paul, Corporations and the REAL Nanny State



Noam Chomsky on Ron Paul, Kutztown University Nov. 21, 2011

Uploaded on Jan 10, 2012


Needs to be said, to get the difference between us and what the GOP will push in 2014.

In another thread, Rand whines about transfats, doughnuts and big gulp drinks and how the nanny state = tyranny.

Typical fare from the guy who wants to insert his version of the nanny state into all lady parts...

Honestly, he needs to steal better material next time.

The FDA Is 'Coming After Your Doughnuts,' Rand Paul Warns

Join the discussion on that in the thread posted by Redfairen.

EDIT: I remembered this clip and thought I'd found the full video. The error was noted and I'm deleting the duplicate.

Ah, Randy, Randy, Randy. Stealing other people's words again. Quite a bad habit you have there.

You stole this from that 'doctor' who went on the attack against Michelle Obama, saying people would be forced to eat fruits and vegetables!

Oh, the horror!

Probably got his 'Dr.' title from a diploma mill just like you, Rand. Is that where you got this tripe, from your 'business' located in a P. O. Box or did you tune into Rush?

And you were going to quit because of the big bad Rachel Maddox hurt your little feelings and you can't fight her. After all, she doesn't look like she eats doughnuts or big gulps but she respects her body, unlike you.

Go and steal some new ideas. On second thought, just buzz off. Don't let the screen door hit you on the ass on your way out.

BTW, about your daddy... I found a video that applies to your nanny state and you:



No, I am not going to be nice about it.

When your nanny state gets out of other people's underwear, and your troglodyte economic schemes quit stealing from my pocket, we'll talk about nannies, Mr. Aqua Buddha Buddy...
