Yes. You read correctly. According to some fanatic idiots, like for instance Gordon Liddy, Obama was born in a hospital in Mombasa, Kenya, although he cannot mention the name of that hospital, because obviously he is a senile 79 year old man, and his mind works according to his feeble imagination. Add to that the fact that he is one of those Republicans who cannot yet accept the fact they lost the elections and most likely the next one too. Due to the fact that Obama's birth is officially and legally registered in the State of Hawaii, my conclusion is that Hawaii was purchased by Kenya before 1961 or that it is an island in the Indian Ocean that belongs to the powerful country of Kenya. I know I am being outrageous, but not as much as these idiots.
Let us not forget that Liddy was one of those undesirable participants in the Watergate scandal, who was found guilty of conspiracy, burglary and wiretapping and sentenced to 20 years in jail. Unfortunately, he was pardoned by Jimmy Carter after 4 years of serving and he has since been lashing against democrats on a radio show and some books he has written. Anyone can write a book today. Look at me, I write blogs and no one knows who I am, except my family and close friends. Imagine a serious fanatic extremist like Gordon Liddy. He will always have an audience in this country. Like Rush Limbaugh the clown, and Ann Coulter the viper. They can write any books they want and be published.
Fame is acquired through infamous deeds more than through heroism. It's a disgraceful fact of life because it brings money to everyone involved, and money commands our lives.
Inasmuch as Liddy's intentions are to discredit President Obama, mainly because he is a democrat, and secondly because he is black. I think it is important to tell, although it is publicly known, that Liddy, whose, by the way, mustache resembles the one that Adolph Hitler wore, although a little bushier than the WWII "sicko", joined in 1972 a committee to carry out activities against Nixon political enemies. This Committee operated under the name of "CREEP", very appropriate indeed. CREEP stood for Committee to Reelect the President (Nixon). These creeps were able to obtain a budget of $250,000 to function, although their request to Nixon's administration was originally $1,000,000 (Operation Gemstone).
Now, here is my question: Why do we have to give this creep airtime on prime television? He is a convicted felon, he is senile, he is a radical. He is never going to accept the true facts. He will only try to exploit his accusations with no proof whatsoever of his statements to back them up with facts or documents. He will never admit that Obama was born in the USA because his purpose is, like that of many other radical who are still sore and hurting for having lost the elections, to continue hammering till they create an atmosphere of doubt among the huge number of ignorant Americans who still believe Obama is a Socialist Muslim born in Africa.
Proof of their ignorance is the fact that they associate the Muslim faith to Socialism. That is a total incongruity.
I have a solution to end with all these malicious accusations against Obama. Form a group to investigate all the obscure activities of these losers. I am sure that many wrongdoing illegal activities will pop up, enough to put these guys in jail or at least to shut them up once and for all. Unfortunately, Democrats, unlike Republicans, are cowards and will continue opting for abiding by the rules of ethic instead of bending their morals just a tiny bit to crush these cockroaches. By no means I intend to describe Republicans as brave, just fanatic delusional beings who are not afraid of lying to obtain their goals.
Perhaps another solution to ridicule these radicals would be to start spreading the news that the entire Obama's Cabinet was born in Africa too. Say..Biden is a Tanzanian citizen, Hillary was born in Uganda but was brought by her parents to the USA at the age of 2 weeks, and that the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi is a citizen of the Ivory Coast, proof of that is her continuous smile to show her teeth. If we counter attack the ridiculous conspiracy theory against Obama the same fashion as idiots like Liddy are, we might be able to show the public who these conspiracy clowns really are.
I need to close this article before I fall asleep and forget to check my Atlas regarding the geographical location of Hawaii and what country owns it. With so much ignorance going around I must make sure it is not contagious to liberal democrats like me.

BY THE BOOK
This is a true story. It is not political. It is about life in the USA by the book. I am so glad it happened to me for it has given me material to ridicule it and enjoy it at the same time.
Around 3 pm this afternoon I decided to go to the Public Library in Tamarac to get some movies I was interested in watching. I brought a list of five of them and stood in line to ask the library worker about these movies. The line was formed by me only. No one behind, but you already know you have to stand in line. That is the routine procedure we've been
trained for anywhere we go, STAND IN LINE even if you are the only one there.
My turn came up. I knew it was my turn because I was the first one there,
actually the only one, as I mentioned before, but I played the game and waited to be called.
Finally the worker, an old lady with a pronounced triple chin, who had been on the phone with someone else, hung up and softly called "May I help you?". I must say with a smile and in a very polite way. I approached her and told her I was looking for some movies. She answered "Give me the titles". I told her I had five and she replied "You are only entitled to three". I thought that she was wrong because you are entitled to take out five DVDs at a time, but I kept quiet, like you have been taught to behave without arguing or trying to make your point.
Thus, I gave her three titles. She only found one, therefore I proceeded to give her the remaining two, based on the fact that according to her I could have three and only one movie was available so far.
As I started mentioning the 4th movie she stopped me: " I said you can only have three, I am sorry, only three".
My reply was: "Yes, but you told me you could only find one, so I can have two more, right?". "No sir, (still very polite I must confess), she answered, Once I enter three titles in the computer that's it".
I was perplexed and could not resist to ask why only three titles could be entered in the computer to find out if they existed or not. Why not two more? Her explanation was by the book. Every customer is only entitled to ask for three titles AT A TIME. That's the key! AT A TIME! The reason is very simple...to avoid holding up the line. As I have already mentioned I was the only one on line! So I tried to explain to her that there was no one behind me. I was not holding anyone up! "Sorry (she continued), but that's the rule".
"OK, what do I do now to find out about the other two titles?"
" You come back and stand in line again for another turn" was her reply.
"Ah, so I can walk out the exit door, turn around, enter again and stand in line once more?"
"Yes sir" (wow, this lady was extremely polite!).
Then, I walked out of the Library (about 10 paces to the door), came back in and stood in line. Again, there was no one standing in line, but me.
She saw me and, I swear to God, she said" "May I help you?"
I looked at her, smiled (almost laughed, but I was able to restrain myself)) and said: "Hi, I am back. Remember me?". No answer to that. She just asked me for the other two titles, thus she definitely remembered me, in spite of the 20 elapsed seconds on my round trip. I gave those titles to her, but these two were not in existence either.
At the end of this "by the book" episode I was told that the only movie she
was able to find would take ten days. Fine with me.
Is this the only encountered I've had with people and organizations who go by the book, regardless of how ridiculous is the interpretation by those who apply it? Of course not, we live according to stupid rules written by lawyers who try to have control of all of us. and by employees of institutions, mainly governmental, whose requirements to hold those jobs are a social security number, proof of citizenship and some type of religious belief. Intelligence and common sense need not to apply.
Poor planet Earth run by idiots!

ELVIS OR MICHAEL?
Or Sinatra, or Nat King Cole, or Charles Aznavour, or Pavarotti, or Bing Crosby?
The list could be endless, depending of whom you ask or in what time we lived. or what kind of music we enjoy better, or how nationalistic we are. There are many factors to choose from to determine who was the greatest talent.
Today, in the year 2009 and for many years to come, perhaps another 50, is Michael Jackson.
That said, let's get down to earth and be a little bit more realistic. Is an entertainer, no matter how great an artist, more important than for instance Fleming? If you forgot who Alexander Fleming was, he discovered PENICILLIN in 1928, which has cured and will continue curing millions of people. Fleming was born in 1881 and died in 1955, two years after Elvis' introduction to the world of music.
Is an entertainer more important than a paint artist, like Michelangelo, or Leonardo, or Velazquez, or Rembrandt, or many other greats alike?
I have this dilemma...who remembers the music of the 30s or the 40s? Obviously people who today are close to the age of 80. When these people leave us who is going to remember the Andrew Sisters or Glen Miller? Very few. But we still see pictures of Wyeth or Winslow Homer's masterpieces. And we still read Cervantes' "Don Quijote de la Mancha", Shakespeare's "Othello", and Dante's "La Divina Commedia". In medicine, art and literature there is no time limit. They last forever.
Unfortunately for entertainment and music, time elapses with time. Songs written, sang and performed yesterday have been or will be forgotten or buried in the cruel reality of time. Imagine, if this planet earth ever reaches the 30th century, who will be singing then "Beat it", or
"Billie Jean"? My guess is no one. But the great immortal works of Dali or Beethoven will prevail and still be there.
I am not trying to put Michael Jackson's popularity down. He was by his own talent one of the greatest entertainers, but the rest of us, who are merely mortal followers, feel today that Michael was more than that, that he was indeed the greatest of them all. I do not share that feeling, perhaps because I believe that there is no ultimate best of anything. No one is the best of everything, unless he is God, like no country is the best country of the world in everything, unless it is a utopic place, and that is not real. Was Michael Jackson real? I think he was. He had virtues and defects, like all of us, he was a superior talent performing, but a total mess in his personal life.
Today's generation, together with the media has made him a superman, close to a God and I believe we've gone over the top.
Michael, like the Beatles, like Elvis, like Sinatra, like many other great singers and performers will be part of the world musical treasure, but that'll be all. No human accomplishments, no hero status, not savior of humanity.
Michael, you made our lives happier and that is perhaps your greatest achievement. Thank you. Rest in peace

WHAT IS SARAH PALIN'S REAL REASON?
Sarah Palin will resign from her post of Governor (Governess?) of the
"Great State of Alaska" (size wise, that is) effective July 26, 2009. Hit the road Jack!
However, I smell a political move here. She's got something up her sleeve. She's stupid, but very wily, and I think this is the beginning of a long range plan for her political ambitions.
The only good thing about her resignation is that this is the kind of news we needed to take a break from Michael Jackson's death, life, music, and the rest of the "who gives a damn" about a mortal who provided us with a new twist in singing and choreographed moves, with dubious sexual behavior in between. We have at least, now, three good days of rest from the Jackson's media bombardment. Too bad it's only three days, or maybe five? because the Jackson paranoia will continue for a long while.
Sarah Palin has said that her resignation is the best decision to maintain the positive course Alaska is on towards a great future of accomplishments. Here is my question (and please forgive me Alaskans): What else can you get from Alaska, besides fish, crustaceans and oil?
The largest state of the Union, with the 47th population does not have much more to offer and due to the freezing conditions most of the year I can't imagine much improvement in their resources and production.
Did she give up because of the latest news about her confrontations with McCain's campaign people? Is she trying to damage McCain in the Senate, although I don't believe he needs more damage than the one He caused to himself by picking her as his running mate. There are many questions to be answered, including the fact that she is abandoning a post she was elected for by the people of Alaska. To me, based on the reasons she has given to justify it, that is absolutely nonsense and very unprofessional. She was elected to do a job and she is quitting, not because a tragic personal or family reason, not because she was caught stealing or any other crime, but because it is her decision. Period.
Thus, be prepared to hear further developments on this resignation. The Palin saga is not over, which is definitely good for the democratic party. While Palin and the other two human misrepresentations, Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter keep barking at the news, the party of NO and hypocrisy is doomed for the next 8 years, at least.
Here is another hypothesis: Sarah Palin realized or was adviced to quit to dedicate time to her education. and she is going to spend these years to learn about world politics, foreign countries, trade agreements, immigration, health care, education, the economy, and other basic facts of today's world we live in. Wait a minute! Why was she chosen to run with McCain then if she was a complete ignorant? Probably because in a party of political zombies she was the only one alive, in spite of her total lack of knowledge.
And last, but not least, could it be that she got a very lucrative offer from the porno industry? ("Sarah does Governor Sanford") Oops... Sorry, I may be crossing the line here.
As of now, all we hear from the media "experts"is that she may go into the world of speeches. That's not too bad considering how much some organizations pay to have controversial people deliver 30 minutes of labial garbage.
Whatever it is, race for the Senate, self education, porno, or public speaking, she is OUT before her term and by her own decision for personal reasons, which means "Me first, screw the people that elected me ".
May I call you Sarah? (as..."May I call you Joe?")
