Sunday, December 9, 2007 dissecting a dickhead http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/12/04/documents-expose-huckabee_n_75362.html
"As governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee aggressively pushed for the early release of a convicted rapist despite being warned by numerous women that the convict had sexually assaulted them or their family members, and would likely strike again. The convict went on to rape and murder at least one other woman." - WHAT A GOOD CHRISTIAN YOU ARE
"Huckabee has claimed that he supported the 1999 release of Wayne Dumond because, at the time, he had no good reason to believe that the man represented a further threat to the public." - Despite his CONVICTION AS A RAPIST
"Dumond was let out of prison 25 years before his sentence would have ended." - TWENTY. FIVE. YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Huckabee was provided letters from several women who had been sexually assaulted by Dumond and who indeed predicted that he would rape again - and perhaps murder - if released." - So, despite his lies, HE WAS WARNED THAT THIS MAN WAS A CONVICTED RAPIST FOR A REASON!
"In a letter obtained by the Huffington Post, she said that Dumond had raped her while holding a butcher knife to her throat, and while her then-3-year-old daughter lay in bed next to her. Also included in the files sent to Huckabee's office was a police report in which Dumond confessed to the rape." - Please note that all of these pieces of information were sent to Huckabee's office.
"But Huckabee and his aides insist that his receipt of the letters is irrelevant because the decision to release Dumond was made by the parole board." - After your aggressive campaign to release him in which you suppressed the letters of his victims claiming you had never received them - although you had, from the Arkansas state parole board AND the women themselves. But that's okay because I know you don't value women, you've made that QUITE OBVIOUS
Do you have a liver? Do you have a soul? Do you have any functioning organs? If you do, you're probably wondering why Mike "I'M A FUCKING ASSHOLE MASQUERADING AS A CHRISTIAN" Huckabee randomly chose this motherfucker who was 25 YEARS, not WEEKS or MONTHS, away from getting out of prison. WELL I'VE GOT THE ANSWER!
Please read this carefully:
"In 1996, as a newly elected governor who had received strong support from the Christian right, Huckabee was under intense pressure from conservative activists to pardon Dumond or commute his sentence.The activists claimed that Dumond's initial imprisonment and various other travails were due to the fact that Ashley Stevens, the high school cheerleader he had raped, was a distant cousin of Bill Clinton, and the daughter of a major Clinton campaign contributor."SO, they believed that this SERIAL RAPIST, who had not only RAPED (RAPE. RAPE RAPE RAPE. RAPED!!! May I remind you that RAPE IS FUCKING HORRIFIC) this girl who happened to be a cousin of a popular Democrat, was nailed to the stake JUST BECAUSE he had done it to her. I think, and I'm only guessing, that the Democrats, for all of their faults, had wanted him convicted, because, HE WAS A SERIAL. RAPIST. NOT JUST BECAUSE HE HAD RAPED BILL CLINTON'S COUSIN!!!!!!!!!1 CAN I BE ANY MORE CLEAR!
The Republicans claimed that he had never raped her and probably assumed he'd never raped anyone before ever. The proof, written by some fat Republican fucker named Dunleavy: "Dumond, now 52, was given conditional parole yesterday in Arkansas after having being sentenced to 50 years in jail for the rape of Clinton's cousin," Dunleavy wrote. "That rape never happened." Oh, okay. No, really, I believe you, YOU PIECE OF SHIT
DON'T WORRY REPUBLICANS, THE STORY HAS A HAPPY ENDING! HE RAPED AND SUFFOCATED ANOTHER WOMAN TO DEATH AND THEN, HE TOOK THE LIBERTY OF RAPING AND MURDERING A PREGNANT WOMAN! OH, YAY!
Is this what you wanted? I mean, I know you respect life and all. TRUST ME, THAT'S NEVER BEEN MORE CLEAR!
I am extremely upset over this. I hope you can tell. I am shaken, pissed off, horrified, and later I'm going to cry about it, and I'm going to break something.
This isn't some fucking sex scandal where we find out Huckabee, GOD FORBID, IS GAY. This isn't some dumbshit money laundering come to light. This man IGNORED letters from victims (excuse me, SURVIVORS) and rallied for the 25-year early release of a CONVICTED rapist, who had CONFESSED to most, if not all, of his crimes. Why did he do it? Because a bunch of WHITE MEN, who ALWAYS feel pity for their fellow WHITE MAN no matter WHAT HE MAY DO, found a link between a convicted rapist and a prominent Democrat. So they put their heads together, launched a massive shit-wing campaign, put pressure on a bunch of assholes and probably bribed them or threatened them or something and they let him out, and what did he do? RAPED and MURDERED two more women AT LEAST.
They said he didn't rape them, they received letters from survivors, they ignored them, he KILLED two more women. After raping them. Since when is rape not shocking? It shocks the hell outta me!
If this doesn't bury Huckabee, it's because AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN, violence against women is normalized and accepted and expected and NOBODY GIVES A SHIT ABOUT IT. I am SO fucking sick and tired of NOBODY giving a SHIT when WE, regardless of color, are RAPED AND MURDERED AND ASSAULTED AND ABUSED AND HURT AND SHUT UP. Do you REALLY not understand why I get so angry? DO YOU REALLY NOT? WHO is gonna stop this if you just keep walking when you see shit like this? YOU tell ME.
Why can't people do the right thing? Why couldn't have Huckabee received those letters and BELIEVED THEM? WHY DON'T WE AS A CULTURE BELIEVE WOMEN?
WE have a LOT of fucking work to do.

Thursday, November 29, 2007 i'm so fuckin over it I AM OFFICIALLY OVER
Hipsters, Pitchforkfullaassholes, fucking hipster artists who "add dates" to their tours that are ALL in NYC, Chicago, DC, Portland, LA and San Francisco. GUESS WHAT? I hate you!
Spoon: YOU ARE NOW LAME, TAKE OFF THE SUNGLASSES BRITT. Just because I still listen to your music doesn't mean I condone the way you dress, act, or what you say when you ain't singing.
Sufjan Stevens, not like I was ever on his fucking side
"Radical" Christians. My friend's brother is no longer a Catholic but people are always trying to "witness" to him. I didn't grow up in the church thank heavens so somebody had to explain "witnessing" to me, and you know what? I think, humbly, that if you're a Christian, you need to stick to your values and set an example. You need to step the fuck off, quit telling people you have the superior religion/God/et cetera, and if people want the church, if they want the Lord, they will find him. How do I respect a religion who keeps getting in my face telling me they, and only they, know what's right? Fuck OFF. No I don't need to accept the Lord into my life, I've lived nineteen years without it and shit's goin' pretty well except you people keep pissing me off.
And while I'm on that subject, what the fuck is with us not trusting a President without an accepted, i.e. Christian, religion? GOD, people, where were you RAISED? WHO! CARES!
FINALLY I saw one of the Guerrilla Girls, Frida Kahlo, speak tonight here on campus. I took a new friend (whee) and my aunt, an art therapist and part of my small estrogen-ruled family. I don't know why but I sometimes assume that an enlightened woman is all the way enlightened, when there are isms I'm not aware of myself.
Here's the thing, I think. Here's what I think. Well, first here's what I know: The basic tenets of feminism are role and pay equality and human rights for all regardless of gender of racial background. Regardless of colour! There are a vast number of other feminist issues (in my opinion anything that involves the suffering of an oppressed person is a fuckin feminist issue) and I don't understand - I mean TRULY, I do not understand - the people that react to feminism with aggression, violence, and hate.
The only period of time in which I hated the terms 'feminism' and 'feminist' was when I was trying to reinvent myself in a way that would attract a group of apathetic people, mostly boys. This was my first year of university. The problem is that I have always been a little militant, and very very passionate, and I'm not able to ignore shit. I mean shit like a verb, I think, like, "That is shit." Quickly (after being called a feminazi by a little white shithead) I reembraced my militancy and I'm using it to change shit around which has to be the thing I'm meant to do, otherwise I'm a drama queen for no reason. Anyway
I can see why people would hate the term, especially women and people of colour who feel excluded from it - thus womanism, which I prefer to feminism but I think it's only applicable to WoC - but I think it's infantile. It's an infantile fear. So there motherfuckers!
The thing about feminism is that it too sometimes sounds infantile to me. I don't want people of colour to think I'm excluding them when I call myself a feminist, but I do understand that a white girl is not going to step in and solve their problems, which are intense, complicated, and varied, and generational, and were caused by us and we ain't helping them any. The other thing about feminism is that we breathe life into it, and it's our fucking job to make sure it's all-inclusive.
I'm not sure where I was going with this. My brain is fried from research papers and shit. Just check out the fucking Guerrilla Girls!
I use derogatory terms on a regular basis. I use them over and fucking over again in my everyday life. I call the people close to me "bastard," "asshole," "cuntface," "bitch," "whore" and tons of other curse words in the name of friendship and "reclaiming" them, I guess. I don't support "reclaiming" any of these terms - or any others - but I have a derogatory personality, and I like to come on strong. I like to illustrate my point in the best way I know how.
When that conservative bitch said to John McCain, "How do we beat the bitch?", about none other than Hillary Rodham Clinton, here's why he should have punched her in the face.
1- It's anti-woman
2- It's hate rhetoric
3- Never before in the HISTORY of this fucking country have we had voters asking candidates "How do we beat the dickhead?" in reference to another male candidate. First of all, you'd have to ask "Why who do you mean?!"
4- It's extremely inappropriate, derogatory, unprofessional, and hateful
5- "Bitch" is a curse word on the same level as "dickhead," "asshole," "bastard" and any other male-centred term
In chuckling and responding, John McCain proved himself totally anti-woman (please, like we didn't know that already) and totally asshole. What? What? It's alright, now that we have a woman in the race, to refer to her in derogatory terms? I'm not talking about in your fucking house or to your fucking friends. This woman, ON TELEVISION, CALLED HER A "BITCH" AND THAT FUCKER LAUGHED AND RESPONDED. If I went on TV and said "HOW DO WE BEAT THAT FUCKING DICKHEAD JOHN MC "I WAS TORTURED" MCCAIN" people would HAVE. MY. FUCKING. HEAD.
And some jock asshole in my sociology class tried to tell me that verbal abuse of women ISN'T accepted! THE HELL IT ISN'T.
I, Fdouble-youF

My Gateway laptop has hit the shits and the Geek Squad hasn't touched it since I "checked it in" a week ago - it was supposed to be fixed either this week or next - so I'm in a fucking computer lab doing two essay assignments, which means I'm reading blogs. I'm reading an interview with Louise Sloan, who recently wrote a book entitled "Knock Yourself Up" (I'm not a fan of that phrase, btw) about choosing to become a single mother. I'm in love with single mothers. I want them to have all the support in the world, more than they know what to do with. I want to send them money and care packages. But Sloan is pretty shady when it comes to chosen single motherhood and women who become single mothers as a result of rape, incest, no access to abortion, or who don't want an abortion. She gleefully reports that even women in socially conservative communities were getting buttloads of love and support! Yeeeeeehaw! Of course they do. Of. Course. They. Do. Now if you're a black young lady with a baby (I can only assume you'd be pegged as having had an unwanted pregnancy even if you had become a single mother by choice, whether you're an intellectual like this woman probably is or you booted the father out for whatever reason, which I'm a supporter of; just because the damn man's around doesn't mean he'd make a good father) you get lambasted.
Also, there's this: "I think that it's really important to make sure that your child feels that the way that she or he came into this world was a positive and happy thing. And so you need to have that attitude yourself."
I went to a charter high school in downtown Pittsburgh with what must have been either a perfect 50% split between people of colour and us crackers or a black majority. Of my classmates, five that I remember had babies (and all of whom dropped out, very unfortunately) and I knew of two abortions (there were two white ladies included here, just to note). I think only one of them had a "rape baby," as one white bitch so crudely put it to me. I had only talked to the woman who had the baby a few times in school but it was so small that you knew the general temperament of everyone, and she was distant but nice, and I can see her being seriously ambivalent about her situation. Now, even if she had been extremely mean and hostile and whatever the fuck it wouldn't have mattered, the same goes for every woman with an unexpected or unwanted pregnancy.
I'm speaking from the school of thought that a struggle never hurt anybody. Life ain't worth shit if it ain't been lived, and I'm not gonna support the programming into ourselves of modes of feeling (baby = happy, pregnant = happy, married = happy). I'm saying let these women be ambivalent about such a fucking drastic life change, and let that genuineness shine through. I'm not saying tell your children what a mistake they were and how much you hate them (though this goes on and I do not encourage it, it's upsetting). I'm saying it ain't a big deal if your kid's asking you this shit, they happen to have been the product of a rape - or they were simply unexpected or unwanted - I wouldn't tell them a lie. I wouldn't tell them something that wasn't appropriate for their age, but I wouldn't coat a lie with the same sugary sweet sticky shit that's made our country fat, lazy and dumb, and the sugary sweet sticky shit in question is the American dream and the illusion of the perfect, ideal, conventional male-female-child(ren) family. Struggle is a part of life. And before I lost this entry the first time I had a whole thing on how much I wish the American Caucasians for whom life has not been a daily struggle could comprehend the fullness of what being born into struggle means for a person, especially a person of colour in a volatile white country like this one. I'm not talking about "life sucks they move on." I'm not dishing out pity to folks born into poverty who struggle daily, because I know they adjust accordingly and they find the good shit in life (and I really fucking hope they do). I'm talking about we wouldn't know what to do if we could comprehend the fullness of everything. Whatever.
I just lost this original post. I was talking about Bill Cosby, whose Oprah episode I caught the last half hour of last week, and how I think the spite he displays for black Americans is very lovely and helpful. And that's sarcasm. I only have to read a few lines into his big fat NAACP speech to know we're not on the same page. He's husband-wife, no child born out of wedlock, pull-your-pants-up-start-speaking-English. And that's not only mature, it's understanding and comprehensive. And THAT is sarcasm!
EXCERPT Y'ALL
"I'm talking about these people who cry when their son is standing there in an orange suit. Where were you when he was two? (clapping) Where were you when he was twelve? (clapping) Where were you when he was eighteen, and how come you don't know he had a pistol? (clapping) And where is his father, and why don't you know where he is?"
Nice clapping add-ins, Cosby's people! Whoo! Yeah! All I can visualize is a crowd of white men clapping like hell, 'cause most of his speech is harping on black Americans to acculturate completely and adhere to the white standard of living. The left-wing white, to boot, not my favourite brand of white folk.
It's nice to know that Cosby's life is so simple. It's nice that he's finally come out of the woodwork to explain to black women everywhere (and my white ass) that if they only put aside all the other shit that was going on in their life - the extent of which I can't even give an example of because I don't know what it's like to be black in this country, where white is the standard and where oppression is still more rampant than anyone's willing to admit to - and fight against the odds, American dream style, and raise their baby to be a good heterosexual man who takes his kids to McDonald's and speaks in perfectly white English! Oh you're so right, you big rich man. I also admire your Rick Santorum-esque idea of family and your further marginalization of an already extremely unseen group, black gays and lesbians. And gays and lesbians of colour. Oooh, yes, you're a good guy. Pud-ding! Ahaha! Sike.
I especially love when he states, "God is tired of you." All I know is this: I am agnostic, so I haven't figured my God out all the way yet, but my God would never be "tired" of anybody. If Bill Cosby's God is as dumb as he is, I hope we do indeed have individual Gods. Although my God wouldn't have let anyone suffer a day in their life, and we wouldn't be at the place we are today. But life, as I so lamely put it before, could never be that simple, so I guess my God doesn't exist. I think I just answered a bigass question.
I can't read any more of this bile, so here it is: http://www.eightcitiesmap.com/transcript_bc.htm Good fucking night, and peace the fuck out! Be good to each other goddamnit.

hey mike huckabee: lick a dick buddy! An open letter to Mike Huckabee!
Yo!
I'm 19 years old! I'm pro-choice! I love gays and transfolks! I realize that sexuality cannot be limited to 'gay' or 'straight'! I love people of colour and I want my Caucasian people in power to realize the oppression and cut it the fuck out! I realize that you and your kind treat me, a woman, as a second-class citizen! I know that my right to choose overrides, uh, everything! I want socialized medicine damnit! I want every single person in this country insured on a healthcare program and while I'm at it what IS the deal with HOME INSURANCE?!?? I don't believe in your white Jesus or your white God but I identify as agnostic and I am leaving myself open to perhaps converting to a faith if it doesn't fuck with my beliefs!
And I am the new majority, sucka! You, sir, can hide behind your faith and call abortion a modern Holocaust - an insult to my Jewish friends and every single person executed during that massacre who is sick and fucking tired of the Holocaust being thrown out there at every opportunity by the dirty politicians of a nation who birthed IBM who in turn tattooed their arms as if they were animals! - and blame it for illegal immigration (or, uh, whatever the fuck you were trying to say, my 'fucking delusional crazy shit' filter is malfunctioning), but you are the real problem. Has anyone ever said that to you before? You and the other white male bigots who keep on coming up and taking the reigns because you're already in power, and you make it so goddamn hard for minorities to stand alongside you because you've polluted them for years and years and fooled them and cut them at the knees and spread lies to your white sisters and brothers about them and finally you keep pumping life into this "American dream". We're all aware that the true American dream is only achieved by a few choice celebrities (who are only either beautiful or gorgeous) and a few people who either buy into the system or do serious evil. You're a fan of evil, I know. You don't, but I do!
But as long as you live your comfy-ass life, you don't give a shit. Well, buddy, number one, you won't ever be President. You're a dumbass. Number two, you better watch your ass when the liberal majority is in power, bub. I don't know about everyone else, but I am not a friendly girl, and you do not fuck with my right to power over my own damn body.
