Scented dog crap bags again. Watching USA vs. Ghana, and the USA losing. Totally deflated like a bunch of flaccid penii. Then talking about sports in the worst episode of the worst podcast ever. Then it stopped being a circlejerk with a fourth person in there. Then talked more about sports, peppered with stuff about the G20 protest in Toronto. Disconnected a few times due to Adam Curry’s internet goons. We all know it’s those guys. In any other language, it’d be pronounced Gehr-mans. JAWOHL MEIN HERR. Weeaboo? Wapanese? Japanabees? Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

New World Notes News
Vol. 3, No. 24 — June 12, 2010

This Week in New World Notes, radio program #119, June 15:

Is It Time To
Impeach Obama?

In brief

Racist, right-wing crackpots are loudly denouncing Obama.That shouldn’t stop Progressives from doing the same–though on different grounds. On every major issue, the difference between the Bush Administration’s policies and the Obama Administration’s policies is negligible.

In this installment, I critique Andrew Sullivan‘s brief but preposterous op-ed praising the Administration’s Progressive accomplishments. Tissues of lies and distortions don’t come much better than this one!

Then journalist David Lindorff describes (to interviewer Michael Slate) the several criminal and/or impeachable offenses the Obama Administration is committing at home. And he explains why Obama’s war in Afghanistan consists of war crimes piled atop still more war crimes, according to both international and U.S. Law.

Finally, I read Margaret Kimberley‘s scathing critique of a new “Presidential power” Obama is asserting: the power to order the assassination of any U.S. citizen he chooses to label a terrorist. No evidence needed, no trial….

We didn’t have time to get to Obama’s moves to dismantle Social Security (a bipartisan advisory panel on “entitlements” has been established) and to privatize public education (the focus and apparent intent of the “Race to the Top” scheme).

Notes, credits, & links

This week’s song: Bruce Cockburn, Call It Democracy

Thanks to The Michael Slate Show for the good interview with Lindorff (April 14, 2010), from which I rebroadcast excerpts.

Margaret Kimberley’s “Obama’s Murder Inc” is from Black Agenda Report, February 9, 2010.

New World Notes is produced under the auspices (Latin for “radar”) of WWUH-FM, a community service of that beacon of light in darkest Connecticut, the University of Hartford.

Mixing metaphors on this episode of the Worst Podcast on the Internets. In this episode, the totally boneheaded people on it, Brain Masse, MP (Windsor West), whapcaps, and Senor “The Iron Ring” Cardgage, talk nostalgia about high school anecdotes and banging teachers. There’s a good amount of stuff on sports and pro wrestling in the beginning too, but being the arrogant white hipster that you are, you wouldn’t care because you probably would rather get a manicure than watch sports. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your RAGE with the greatest bad podcast on the internet!

Talking about Canada. Again. Blurring the line between fantasy and reality. Can you do that? Only possible on the worst podcast on the internet. Whut’s yerba, mate? Semen’s advertising in airports? Who can live without TV? Apparently these chuckleheads on this show. Then Canadian children’s TV programs. POLKAROO. Celebrities they’ve met. Funny place names. Fucking, Austria. And a certain Waterloo real estate agent makes this show awesomely bad. Does it matter who’s on it? NO. YOU WILL LAUGH ANYWAY

Show notes? Two can play at that game. This is the one where Ned takes a beer exemption. Beers to the face and the worst podcast gets wound up. Tape cassettes and typewriters, pre-enlistment deserters, inside baseball, and bullshit abound. This podcast hits the heights of shit. Should France take their statue back or are they worse off? This one has Brain Masse, Senor “The Iron Ring” Cardgage, RadiowaveNedometer, and Eugene Michaweischelshoe.

People in government don’t honor your practice of self-ownership

Most people have self-induced blindness regarding the coercion and tyranny of government

The Honor of Being Human: Why Do You Support? by Arthur Silber http://powerofnarrative.blogspot.com/2007/12/honor-of-being-human-why-do-you-support.html

There can be no valid reasons for demands of obedience, because such demands violate voluntary, uncoerced agreement

http://warisimmoral.com Daniel’s site as conscientious objector

To choose one’s rulers–what irony!

The political process (voting) is fundamentally unjust and immoral

Authoritarian/obedience-oriented parenting brings about statism

Psychologist Haim Ginott’s insights: http://www.betweenparentandchild.com/

Even if you must obey for self-preservation reasons, it’s still important to convey the injustice and immorality happening to those who are violating your rights

“Public property” is a complete denial of self-responsibility in the realm of property rights

Governments exist through the sanction of the general populace; they must appear to protect and provide

To obey is to ultimately support

Denial of self-responsibility invariably leads to immoral actions
