meanwhile: http://www.socialistworker.co.uk/art.php?id=23537 one year anniversary of Haitian earthquake that killed 316,000, injured another 300,000, and rendered 1,000,000 homeless is pretty much ignored, just as the giant military base being built there has been ignored this past year.
one might point out: the UN won’t allow Haitians to vote for political parties of which they don’t approve (not just Fanmi Lavalas, Aristide’s party): their election was so corrupt the candidates wanted a revote. So any money disbursed to the Preval “government” when he’s nothing but a tool, well, guess what…
in fact we’re so pro-democracy we’re also backing the Tunisian dictator who just dismissed his entire government. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/top/all/7381641.html
Somehow there has been no word of yet another country being collapsed due to global poverty instigated by the banksters and their corrupt tools in office worldwide.
and its government has been controlled by the french and us for a very long time too.
anyway, point of mentioning Haiti was to point out the overwhelming narcissism that says 6 American deaths are a tragedy like the world has never seen before so we’ll hold memorial pep rally services attended by our president on the anniversary of the death of 1/3 of a million people not so very far away.
in my opinion, that pep rally was disgusting. it was suppose to be a memorial service. the cheering & yelling turned my stomach in knots.
can you imagine just losing a love one .. a feeling of lost .. & then feeling committed to attending a memorial service that turned out like this? did anyone see the faces of mr. giffords & the medic who saved gifford’s life. they were not smiling & grinning. its very hard to put on a happy face thru all that, when grieving inside.
I totally agree with you. It was more pep rally than memorial service. I found it disgusting too, yet the talking heads seem to think POTUS knocked one out of the park???
They’re all detached from reality, aren’t they.
Thank goodness the good people on the blogs I frequent didn’t buy the lie. They all think this sham was sickening and inappropriate.
Add in Bill Gwatney, the totally unlooked-for deaths of Bernie Mac–who knew obama was on the down low, like Mc himself–and nfluential black Hillary supporter Stephanie Tubbs Jones, and God knows hoe many others.
arleanearmy, I was floored…I’m old school. I saw a large pep rally at a party school (perfect venue) for a political themed memorial. They aren’t kidding anyone. The children have been brought back into the fold. Will they be as happy if the need for a draft is brought back? This guy has fires that are ready to explode into huge everywhere and there are not enough soldiers to take care of business.
What a travesty. I was grossed out. This was no celebration of life, not a memorial, but it was a pep rally.
I’m listening to Gergen, Brinkley, Cooper and they are talking about this “memorial” as if it were a campaign rally. . . “the Obama of old” . . . ” He sounded as if he were reading a teleprompter” . . . shocking
Really this was sickening. nearly as sickening as the initial slaughter last Saturday.
leslie he is not kidding those that saw it happen before. Geez, I’m surprised the pizza wasn’t being handed out? I listened to the news channels in the beginning and they were being PC. Then someone called it a pep rally. That was it, they got it. Enough.
Buttered, nothing surprises me about UA. Kids love this school. It caters to partying. Very similar to UT Austin except that UT has 50,000 plus. They produce remarkable people. The party is only one facet of UT. As with any school, it’s what you make of it. Make no mistake, this is the time of their lives.
Apparently, that genetically-engineered food has caused men’s testicles to recede or in some cases disappear. I mean, the evidence is in abundance: John Boehner’s incessant crying spells and O-What’s-His-Name’s urgent pleas for civility…
Gosh. I didn’t realize what a dude I really was until now through the process of elimination. Wow!!!!!

Was just reading through the late night comments at Uppity’s- lorac dropped this link- very clearly dated 2008 from an OFA blog page- with the “Together We Thrive” motto. But the University was responsible for the t shirts- and the campaign had nothing to do with it- uh huh- yup http://js-kit.com/blob/8pJ3LUmWkSSe9IuxpYMM_5.png
Heh. Wouldn’t it be great if one of the children outed it all? I’ve worked with Student Associations, they don’t let anything happen without their approval. Given that they don’t usually rise out of bed before 11am, I doubt that they had these made. Someone made them and handed them to the bots.
What’s that we are hearing from the “news?” That’s what I thought- crickets.
If this does not get reported- we will know for sure that 2012 is going to be an exact replay of 2008. In which case I am writing in MKBill
