BuzzFlash > Barbara's Buzz

A collection of insightful ruminations, reflections, and rants on the events of the day (with the exception of the weekend). Come visit each weekday to see what's pushing Barbara's buttons.

Repuglican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has admitted to using steroids to achieve body building fame and win titles as well as riding that reputation into stardom and politics. If Athletes in the U.S. are to be disqualified with their records erased, then why not extend the punishment to include all those who have indulged in use of steroids, even if they are Repuglican politicians? If "examples" are to be made of some, then everyone should abide by the same code of ethics, no matter their political affiliation!

To all those seniors who voted for George Bush--now that he doesn't need your vote, look for the annihilation of your Social Security benefits. Social Security "reform" is but a Repuglican political buzzword for eliminating your monthly checks. These guys won't stop until they "take care of" what they consider an entitlement program, and those words, "take care of," for them means "blow it away."

It is well known that more people have been killed in the name of the Lord than for any other reason, and Jerry Falwell is doing everything he can to maintain that statistic! As someone who claims to be a "man of the cloth," a "Christian minister," a "purveyor of scripture," a "man of peace," he is saying we should "blow them all away in the name of the lord" (the terrorists and anyone else who gets in the way)! The "Inquisitors" way back when don't hold a candle to the "Jerry Falwells" of today!

As I read different stories on the internet regarding issues and events that affect Americans on a daily basis, I pause to wonder WHY it takes days to weeks, if ever at all, for this news to come out on mainstream media??? Why is it that mainstream media only give the story air-time after the story has become so public that they can no longer cover it up without the most embarrassing accusation of oversight? Because, mainstream media in the United States is just another arm of Donald Rumsfeld's and ultimately George Bush's Office of Disinformation, of course!

* * *

Now why does this not surprise me??? Being from Florida, it comes as no surprise that it's politics as usual, way down there in the south. A little more high tech, a little more creative, but still just as sleazy---moral values, my ass, the Repuglicans have been working on this for years!
