“Geosynchronous” – 22,000 miles up, is not exactly a “low Earth” orbit.
Inigo Montoya, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means”.
Nit-picking mode OFF…
I guess I can’t blame it on the fact that I was trying to imitate the speech patterns of a digital representation of a child’s polystyrene toy action figure, huh?
Damn; didn’t think so!
TV Politics and Politician Actors:
And, until we get Tweedle Dees and Tweedle Dums out of power, this will continue. We have a National Political League made up of the Dem Confernce and the Repub Conference and they Face Off every 2, 4 or 6 years and Play for the Super Bowl. And, we, The People, are not considered a part of the equation any longer. We are just the fans who turn out to vote.
And, whoever wins the Super Bowl, as soon as they are seated again, they Do Nothing For We, The People. They just play a game on TV for Public Consumption, and then when the Cameras are off, they, of both parties or conferences, just laugh at We, The People, becuase they have duped us one more time.
Obama already has a Snake Oil Czar, and in fact, has a Snake Oil Empire. That Empire is the Mainstream Media in all it’s forms, and the Czars are everybody from Chris Matthews to Bill O’Reilly. Wake Up America, we are all being sold a bill of goods by the MSM and the Politicians they Speak For, and there is little or no difference in the Spin You Get From Any Of Them. They show just enough difference as to make us think We Are Getting Fair and Balanced Accounts of what the Stooges In DC are doing. They are Actors. And, they are not Acting In Our Best Interests.
I posted the following on my FACEBOOK: Jerome Ennis today and it explains how I see the Political Process in the USA today.:
“To all my friends and family—Hope you all have a Safe and Happy 4th of July as we celebrate our Nation’s Birthday. At this time, we need to reflect on what it means to be an American. And, what is going on in this nation today at the National Level, is the Most Anti-USA and Anti-American Activities that I could have ever imagined.
It is time to Take Our Country Back from the National Political Classes, who have sold We, The People Down The River. Support folks like J.D. Hayworth of Arizona who is challenging Senator John McCain, a RINO who has sold us out every bit as much as his Buddies Across the Aisle. Witness the 2008 election when McCain refuse to Call Obama what Obama is: An Enemy of the USA and a Marxist. McCain refused to challenge Obama in any way, and his handlers Muzzled Sara Palin to keep her from being as effective as she could have been. Still, Palin got McCain some conservative votes that he otherwise would not have gotten, and then after the election, McCain threw Palin Under The Bus, but to Palin, that is a good thing, as it Separates Her From this Malingering RINO McCain. I am urgin all my friends to Vote and also to get others involved in This Fight For Taking Our Country Back. I am also asking friends to financially support with $5, $10 or whatever you can afford to guys like Hayworth who are having to Challenge the National Political League Who Have deep Pockets from PACS and others who Buy Our Elected Officials over and over and the Band In DC plays on with these scoundrels pretending to wrangle over policies, but at the end of the day, they all go along to get along because that is the Dog and Pony Show they have for Public Consumption. Their TV wranglings are no more serious than are the TV wrestlers or the Roadrunner and the Coyote. Wake Up America. We no longer have a Representative Government. Our elected officials Serve Their Masters, the ones who Pay For Their Campaigns also Pay for the Legislation and Government Contracts They Receive.”
I also posted the following:
The National Political League (NPL) is made up of 2 conferences: Dems and Re;pubs:
“What is truly amazing about these Liberal Socialist Politicians is that they, themselves are usually stingy and would not give a quarter to a bum on the street for a cup of coffee, and instead would walk across the street just to avoid seeing a bum on the street, and yet, they pass legislation that Preys On other People’s Kindness and make Working People Feel that they should Fund The Poor, whether they are poor due to their own laziness and lack of initiative, and of course, these same liberals have passed laws that have basically dumbed down the population to the point that millions of Americans who have graduated from high school and colleges are still functionally illiterate and lack basic skills in academics, so therefore do not have decent jobs that require skills. And, the band plays on and we allow these scum bags to say, “What We Need Is More Taxes and More Money To Fix The Problems That Government Creates.” And, the numb skull so-called Conservatives Will Not Even Say Things This Bluntly, which leads me to believe that There Are No Actual Conservatives Now Serving in the U.S. Congress nor in Most State Governments. All we have now is a Political Class of Professional Politicians that are in the National Political League and within this NPL, we have the Democrat Conference and the Republican Conference and every 2, 4 or 6 Years, the Democrat Conference Squares Off with the Republican Conference and they play for the Super Bowl which means a Trip to DC where they get to Share in the Spoils of War from the Treasury of the United States, and We, the Voters or Fans, spend another 2, 4 or 6 years complaining about what they do when they get there.
The NPL (National Political League) made up of Dems and Repubs is a Sham.
That is why you see such Rabid Opposition to True Conservatives of the TEA Party Movement by the Democrat League of the NPL, and Mild to Serious Hostility to the TEA Party Movement by the Sitting Members in Congress of the Republican League of the NPL. The National Political League does not want Any Challengers who might Upset the Balance of Power (The Charade that goes on in Congress). They want Absolute Power to be held by the National Political League. No new teams or leagues allowed.
And, of course the MSM is on the Side generally of the Democrat League of the NPL while the Republican League of the NPL has a Middle of the Road, Fence-Straddling Network called Fox News that does their bidding and do some trash talk about the Democrat League, but in fact, Makes Sure that the Charade of the National Political League with it’s Tow Members, the Democrat Conference and The Republican Conference, never being truly challenged. They are not going to allow anybody to Upset This Balance of Power that these Two Conferences Have.
Thanks–Jerome

Are you aware that your iTunes subscription links appear to be broken? From within iTunes, it’s impossible to download the podcasts.
Seconded on the iTunes subscription no longer working
Yeah, I can’t get iTunes to work either. And for that matter, I can only seem to get the lofi version of the downloadable MP3 to work.
The iTunes subscription isn’t working for me, either. What’s weirder is that I can’t get the regular downloadable MP3 to work, only the lo-fi version.
The downloadable link to the show should now be working. As to the iTunes feed, the connection between PJM in El Segundo and iTunes HQ in Cupertino is a surprisingly delicate and tenuous one. Our tech support guys are looking into the issue, and I put a note in Outlook to follow up with them shortly.
