Stealth Mode

Times in the Papamoka household have come to the bottom. With the coming divorce and separation of my family has come some deep thoughts and personal retrospect. The economy sucks and their are fifteen or more people applying for every job that I apply for. I'm going to say a fond goodbye to all my friends here at Papamoka Straight Talk for now. I'm packing up the house to move out and into a new adventure in life. All of the pictures of my girls, our life, and just the basics that will fit into my mini SUV. Where it takes us is is God's will and I accept the lessons I need to learn. Life is what it is and I need to face it head on.

The girls will stay in Mass a two sticks with mom and I will try and find work elsewhere to send money home to them. I can't pay the rent here and I don't want to be a burden to the owner of the house with his two little girls. In two weeks I point my truck south to my family in Florida or Missouri. Not sure which but both have open arms for me and a place for me to rest my head and start all over. I'm not giving up hope and praying that several of the jobs I've applied for might offer an interview soon but time is running short.

"Paper or Plastic" is not far from my vocabulary when it comes to finding a new job anymore. Especially, when nobody wants to hire a Quality Control Manager with twenty plus years of experience in manufacturing and developing entire quality systems from scratch. Writing ISO quality manuals, certifications, audits, the whole gambit when it comes to anything that is manufactured. Experience in this economy means nothing and the jobs that used to pay a decent wage are no more.

Please wish me luck and prosperity.

Thank you for reading and caring about our little family. Reality sucks and I need to do more than just bitch about life. I'm moving on. Hopefully for the better.

God bless and keep you all well. I will be back but I can't say when.

From the Far Left Side

Being a Liberal, I love the Far Left Side. Cracks me up. Check the site out and you too will become addicted.

If you have ever been a fan of the Far Side comic strip from Gary Larson then you will find yourself visiting this gifted cartoonist often.

Very very very very lucky people

Do you think these people have guardian angels?

It makes me sick to my stomach to think that people can be so cruel and evil to such an innocent. This poor baby suffered her entire life which was all of six months and nobody came to her defense. Such brutality deserves more than life in prison as punishment. Feel free to pass this video on to everyone you know...

Football Picks Courtesy of GTL

My brother from another mother has a unique gift and talent. He knows how to pick the majority of winners in the NFL in the coming weekend. How the hell he does it is beyond me but he is damn good!

Year to date he is 51 wins and 25 losses. That puts The Gun Toting Liberal at 67.11% for this season alone. Since 2006 to 2008 when he started this phenomenal pick of winners he is 335 wins to 195 losses. That makes his all time record of winners at 63.21%!!!

From time to time I steal stuff from the GTL because he is my bro. I hope he is cool with this post for just this weeks NFL picks. Check out the Gun Toting Liberal every Friday for his picks on the weekends games. Blows my mind how he does it!

Alan Grayson on the GOP

I tend to like people that talk straight and forward. Congressman Alan Grayson from Florida is about to become the go to man for the Democrats and I love the way he talks. This clip I loved from the Ed Schultz Show...



Alan Grayson is absolutely right! If Jesus Christ graced President Obama with his presence before he declared the Rapture, Republicans would argue the fact that it was not the King James version of Jesus and it doesn't count.

Who the hell does this first African American President that has based his entire life on fighting for the poor think he is? Who does he think he is as the leader of the only super power left on Earth working towards peace in every nation, ending two wars built on "My way or the highway" mentality? Who do these idiots in Oslow Sweden think they are giving a Nobel Peace Prize to when the man has only promised to work towards world peace? If I were a Republican I would be all over this with the fear factor. We should be afraid, we should hide under our desks, we should listen to those that know better. We should and shall be sheep if we know what is good for us.

We Americans should be building a wall all around us like China did with its Great Wall. Build it better, build it higher, and make sure we can hide behind it. Put missiles and nukes every couple of miles to launch at any fishing boats that dare to mock our God given right to be omnipotent. We are the world leader and we should be protected from those that mean to steal our kids lunch money or screw us on travel deals. We should nuke Club Med just out of spite.

Better yet, we could rebuild the Iron Curtain. Start it in Washington, DC and just ramp the design up till it reaches the west coast. You never know when a foreign nation will air drop sheep and cattle to take over our grazzing rights. It could happen.

OR... BIG ASS OR!

We could actually talk to the rest of the world and try to end the reason terrorism actually exists?

Comment Moderation

I reserve the right to delete offensive comments about myself or writers that contribute to this site. I recently had to moderate all comments but after thinking about it I don't feel that it gives the site true justice. Be respectful, be kind, Do NOT CUT AND PASTE, and discuss the issues with your own words. Yes, I will be watching the comments but I'm not going to waste my time deciding who is right or who is wrong. If you comment here then please stand by your comments, defend your own comments, and have fun debating the issues. But please keep the expletives to a minimum.

I'd like to get back to writing about the issues and I'm taking a new approach as to how I do just that. If the political right can do it, then what the hell is wrong with those of us on the left doing the same damn thing?

I think we can all do this.

Bachmann and O’Reilly Love Fest

I want to throw up after seeing the latest lovey love from Bill O’Puke interviewing Michele Bachmann. Bill is wondering why people on the left think that the distinguished nut job congresswomen from Minnesota is outright bats shit and a festering sewerage outlet for the left to criticize? Hello! Every single time this nit wit opens her mouth the flies come roaring out looking for something a little less decomposing and tastier than her actual brain.

I’ll make it perfectly clear for you if you haven‘t had an opinion on Michele Bachmann, she is F’n nuts and has taken it unto herself to be the bad girl of the GOP! Somebody call the cleaning crew in for under Bill’s desk! Save the Louvre sponge. Check out the love fest Bill has for Michele Bachmann over at Think Progress…

O’REILLY: Do you think — and this is an off-the-wall question. And I’m telling the audience that it’s just something that’s occurred to me. Both you and Sarah Palin are good-looking women. I mean, you’re attractive, young — relatively young — women who other women can identify with. You’re a mom, a wife. You had a private-sector job.

I think that’s it. I think that the success of Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann drive the far left crazy because you don’t fit — they don’t like what you believe in, but you can attract others to listen to you. I think that’s what’s going on. - Bill O’Reilly

Maybe we should fill good old Uncle Bill in on why we don’t allow him or Aunty Michele to baby sit our young daughters or run the country. Somebody get a napkin, uncle Bill is drooling again…

Can we look at some actual quotes from Batshit Bachmann (I couldn’t make this up if I wanted too):

"Literally, if we took away the minimum wage—if conceivably it was gone—we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely because we would be able to offer jobs at whatever level." —Michele Bachmann, 1/26/05, Jobs, Energy and Community Development Committee, testifying against SF 3, a bill to raise the MN minimum wage and advocating the elimination of the minimum wage altogether..

"Many teenagers that come in should be paying the employer because of broken dishes or whatever occurs during that period of time. But you know what? After six months, that teenager is going to be a fabulous employee and is going to go on a trajectory where he's going to be making so much money, we'll be borrowing money from him." —Michele Bachmann, 1/26/05, explaining why teenagers should pay employers for the privilege of working instead of receiving minimum wage.

"I look at the Scripture and I read it and I take it for what it is. I give more credence in the Scripture as being kind of a timeless word of God to mankind, and I take it for what it is. And I don't think I give as much credence to my own mind, because I see myself as being very limited and very flawed, and lacking in knowledge, and wisdom and understanding. So, I just take the Bible for what it is, I guess, and recognize that I am not a scientist, not trained to be a scientist. I'm not a deep thinker on all of this. I wish I was. I wish I was more knowledgeable, but I'm not a scientist." - Michele Bachmann interviewing with Todd Fiel at KKMS as quoted in the Stillwater Gazette, September 29, 2003. -Quotes courtesy of Dump Michele Bachmann

BACHMANN: It is horrific to know that in the African American community, 50 percent of all African American pregnancies in the United States end in abortion, 50 percent. That is a genocide of African Americans of the United States. It should not be. There are Americans all across this country who would love to adopt African American babies, but they can't because 50 percent of all African American pregnancies today are ending in abortion. - City Pages on Bachmann over at the Huff PO Quote

“Some suggestions are that perhaps we would see an enhancement of wildlife expansion because of the warmth of the pipeline,” she said. […] The [existing Alaska pipeline] pipeline has now become a meeting ground and “coffee klatch” for the caribou, she said. - Bachman quote from Treehugger.com

"Iran is the troublemaker trying to tip over apple carts all over Baghdad right now because they want America to pull out. And you know why? It’s because they’ve already decided, that they’re going to territory, they’re- they’re going to partition Iraq and half of Iraq, the western northern portion of Iraq is going to be called, the United, uh, uh, the, the uh, -oh, I’m sorry, I can’t remember the actual name of it now, but it’s going to be called, um, uh, the, the, uh, uh the Iraq State of Islam, something like that. And I-I’m sorry, I-I don’t have the official name, but it is meant to be the training ground for the terrorists. There’s already an agreement made; they’re going to get half of Iraq and that is going to be a –a terrorist free,-a terrorist safe haven zone." - February 9, 2007, interview with Larry Schumacher, St Cloud Times. Posted February 10, 2007 - Democratic Underground

Yup, I’m pretty much convinced that Michele Bachmann is batshit and Looney as the birds on Golden Pond. What scares the crap out of me is the fact that people actually consider her second fiddle to that other nit wit from Alaska. Then again I should probably shut my mouth and let the GOP parade their best out. They don’t really need the sixth grade or higher education vote.

I feel much better now… :)
