Philadelphia Needed To Win One… Badly.

Bigger than the collapse of the Mets is the ascendancy of the Philadelphia Phillies. They have shown a resilience that their beleaguered city is desperate to witness. The horrible poverty that has devastated Camden New Jersey has bled (literally) into the city of brotherly love [ll].

In 2006 Philadelphia had the worst murder rate for any large city and that includes America’s most hardbody city, Detroit. This year has already been even worse in only the first nine months. This is why I am happy for the Philadelphia Phillies and I hope that the Eagles can get their shit together as well. If Philly has something to divert their attention from the encroaching poverty and loss of economic opportunities maybe the tide of violence can be stemmed. Philadelphia’s sports teams must do something positive before basketball season begins and the Sixers start sucking the life out of the city. By the time Thanksgiving rolls around it will be way too late.

In the meantime we need to examine how we can proactively (no P Diddy) control the violence in our neighborhoods. It used to be good enough to build a few more basketball courts and have a few more block parties but those times are past tense. People in the centre city need real solutions on rebuilding their communities. To me this means vocational training that deals with repairing the crumbling infrastructure within the centre city. Enough money has been spent on rebuilding Iraq and Afghanistan and Darfur and where the fuck ever. We need to rebuild America.

That’s the team I’m rooting for.

top and bottom

RUDY’s weedcarrier BERNARD KERIK = Power Bottom

There was never any doubt what agency had access to the ears of GIULIANI when he was the New York City mayor. The Fire Department has always been the stepson when placed alongside the Police Department, but these dudes were totally shut out of the game with GIULIANI. Further proof that they couldn’t be heard was the fact that they still used substandard emergency communication equipment during the World Trade Center collapse even though they had a test run in that same structure five years prior.

When the Towers were under attack GIULIANI huddled directly with the police and told the firefighters they were on a need to know basis. Essentially, they would be called in for photo opportunities when someone wanted to have a cairns helmet in the background. Slowly the skeletons of RUDY are being unearthed as he continues to think that he can somehow strongarm the presidency the same way he bullied himself into the mayoralty. You already know that saying about what usually happens when you see smoke. And the firemen’s union is starting to spit that… Fire.

giuliani

RUDOLPH GIULIANI is still on the G.O.P. campaign trail and his latest stop in California was his chance to ballyho his energy consumption platform. “America shouldn’t buy fuel from it’s enemies”, and more blah, blah, blah ‘muslim terrorists’ rhetoric flowed from his lips. “It’s embarrassing that Brazil has been more progressive than America in embracing alternate means of energy.” What he was really saying is that if a so-called Third World nation can establish their independence from consuming American-backed fossil fuels, then we Americans have to start selling that other shit too. Don’t you good people ever start to think that the energy used in America is controlled by anyone other than supremacists. There is no Islamic boogieman lording over the gas pumps. It’s actually Uncle Sam. As for GIULIANI, I have three simple words for him…

HO SIT DOWN!

GIULIANI runs across the country in a mutli-vehicle motorcade and none of them shits are Priuses either. The most honorable thing for him to do would be to speak on the things that he does know about like putting people in bodybags and maintaining a grim visage. I’m surprised the people of California are hoodwinked so easily with blustery promises. Then again, California did vote for the Terminator.

As I patiently sit here waiting for the wheels to fall off the GIULIANI campaign bus, or my chance to vote in the Republican presidential primary in New York, whichever comes first, I’m reminded by the old adage of being careful for what you wish upon. So I promised not to ask grandma take out the root doll and send GIULIANI to the hell that GARY HART occupies.

POLITRICKS 2008: Take Me Out To The Ballgame (no JOHN ROCKER)

heros

I can’t believe that GIULIANI is still relevant at this point in the 2008 presidential campaign. I felt so assured that he would have been self-ethered when documents were leaked that he and MICHAEL VICK trained dogs together. GIULIANI’s pitbulls however are people. From CHRISTYNE LATEGANO to BERNARD KERIK (who incidentally had to be summarily put down), the former Mayor is a snarling dog owner who takes no greater pleasure than watching his attack dogs as they dismember someone. I don’t have to wonder where GIULIANI stands when it comes to MICHAEL VICK either. It’s weird that so many people are concerned about the ethical treatment of animals, but the ethical treatment of other people, especially the poor… Not so much.

GIULIANI never struck me as a man that was into sports for the plays or the players. GIULIANI loves the spectacle. He is that Roman senator that catches wood when people are thrown to the lions. To that extent he will be a sought after prosecutor, but never a president. He’s still going to shoot the shot anyhoo. And why not? He’s got tons of cash and the threat of McCAIN pushing past him is starting to fade. GIULIANI is like a horse breaking away on the turn at the Kentucky Derby. Let’s see if he has the legs to carry himself all the way. I wonder where all these dog lovers come in on horse racing. It was pointed out to me that everything that is bad with sports is contained in horse racing, from animal abuse to rampant steroids use.

Doesn’t GEORGE STEINBRENNER, the owner of the Yankees. also own several stables of racing horses? Why aren’t the Feds swooping down on him for cruelty to animals? That answer is so simple that it doesn’t need to be said, but I will put it up anyhoo.

Peep GEORGE STEINBRENNER’s political contributions

That list tells me that RUDOLPH GIULIANI was in GEORGE STEINBRENNER’s wallet from way back. There was a senator named ALPHONSE D’AMATO who ran New York as if it were his personal fiefdom. RUDOLPH GIULIANI carried weed for ALPHONSE. I don’t say that euphemistically either. In 1986, GIULIANI and D’AMATO dressed up in Hell’s Angels outfits and went up to Washington Heights to buy crack and weed together as a publicity stunt. What I didn’t realize back then was that GIULIANI and D’AMATO were into playing dress up as leathermen. Come to think of it, GIULIANI is into that drag lifestyle something fierce, huh?!?

dragqueen

Well if GIULIANI insists on dressing in drag and wearing his fancy baubles to the White House then he had better stay in the money. Whoever said that the CLINTON’s were the only politicians that have access to Hollywood connections obviously hasn’t met RUDY. It looks to me like GIULIANI isn’t doing too bad at all with the jetset elite from the left coast.

ADAM SANDLER chipped in…

And even a tipsy KELSEY GRAMMER

Along with golden boy JOHN ELWAY

As well as A-ROD, ALEX RODRIGUEZ

Plus ‘Sopranos’ exec producer BRAD GREY

And even my former favorite first baseman, KEITH HERNANDEZ

RUDOLPH GIULIANI might be short on charisma, but he certainly won’t be looking for a loan with these friends. I am going to leave this drop alone now. I have to put my ‘Sopranos’ and ‘Fraser’ DVD box sets along with my throwback Broncos jersey and ‘Waterboy’ t-shirt in the incinerator.

It’s The Taxes Stupid…

giuliani

Prior to his appearance at the Daytona Speedway to be the grand marshal for the Pepsi 400, the presidential campaign for Republican hopeful RUDOLPH GIULIANI hit a major speedbump (pun always intended). During a town hall meeting this weekend that the former NYC mayor presided over he was loudly jeered. RUDY said all the right things to this crowd of bible belt NASCAR fans when he was questioned about whether or not more people should die in the desert, but he stumbled over himself after saying that he opposed the implementation of a ‘flat tax’ system as a way of overhauling the federal income tax system.

Even though I am a registered Republican voter I also oppose the ‘flat tax’ rate system as proposed by several Congressional legislators because it still allows the rich and corporations to shelter their earnings while the middle class (read: working class) shoulders the brunt of the responsibility for funding governmental services like the war in the Middle East.

Here is the new DALLAS PENN Dot Com buzzword phrase for the next decade in the American economy – COMPASSIONATE CAPITALISM. This is the idea that corporations and big business must be held accountable for their uncontrolled profiteering. With so many sectors in the private industry consolidating and merging there are companies returning to their original monolithic monopoly-like hold on our economy. Bell Telephone which had been split into many pieces is transforming into a tele-communications Leviathan under the name of Verizon.

No presidential candidate has spoken to America’s biggest problem which isn’t terrorism, but a lack of opportunity for living wage employment. This speaks directly to all the companies that have outsourced entire divisions of their manufacturing, processing and customer service overseas. Guess what GIULIANI, CLINTON, McCAIN, OBAAMA, et al? It’s STILL the economy stupid!
