MY VERY STRONG FU TO "COMEDIAN" RUSSELL BRAND

For once, I agree with Russell Brand!

Or maybe you're just a sanctimonious toolbag!

Except, of course, when it comes to terrorists killing CHILDREN!

Russell Brand: social revolutionary extraordinaire!

You tell 'em, Fry!

Frankly, I'd rather hear Katy Perry's take on politics!

Russell Brand is a British toolbag, uh, I mean, comedian and sometime actor and/or talk show host who's also a self-admitted former drug AND sex addict (and, oh yeah, he's singer Katy Perry's ex, as if you didn't know THAT already!). Russell actually fashions himself as some sort of cultural and/or political revolutionary who's NEVER been shy about espousing his, uh-hum, opinion on various topics. Recently, Brand made headlines when he went on a YouTube rant against Fox (Non) News where he called the "news" outfit a, and I quote, "fanatical, terrorist, propagandist organization" that is--and, again, I quote--"more dangerous than ISIS." ISIS, for those of you who've been living under a rock these past couple of weeks, is the "jihadist" group that's currently trying to violently take over the entire nation of Iraq. Apparently what got Russell's British crumpets in a bunch was when Fox (Non) News commentator former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro emphatically stated on her show how the U.S. should "bomb" ISIS and whatnot. This caused Brand to lash out at Miss Pirro in his 10-minute diatribe by saying how--and, there again, I quote--"she's the savage, she's totally espousing savage values." So, let me see if I understand you correctly, Mr. Brand, someone--a woman--who says something you obviously don't agree with is more "savage" than an actual "terrorist organization" that has reportedly gone from one Iraqi town/city to the next reportedly engaging in civilian massacres and forcing civilians--including men, women AND children--to flee their homes in terror? Makes sense! 

Before I go any further, I'd just like to reiterate that I'm NO major huge fan of Fox (Non) News (nor am I a "fan" of MSNBC and/or CNN). And I'm especially NO major huge fan of Jeanine Pirro who is certainly NO stranger to making outlandish comments. Not that I'm saying that "bombing" Iraq--or, more precisely, bombing ISIS strongholds--wouldn't be such a bad idea and might even protect the lives of the Iraqi civilians that ISIS is targeting in their brutal quest to take over Iraq. I mean, ISIS is a TERRORIST group so brutal and so fanatical that even the terroristic likes of Al Qaeda has reportedly distanced themselves from them. And Russell Brand is actually saying Fox (Non) News and/or Jeanine Pirro is WORSE than this group? 

You know, Russell could have come out with a video making a rational and reasoned argument against what Miss Pirro--and other commentators on Fox (Non) News--have said about the current crisis in Iraq and/or how they (the Fox News commentators) got it WRONG about Iraq the first time around (like, for instance, when Bill O'Reilly actually claimed on his show how "President" Bush's "war" in Iraq would ONLY last a week!). But, for whatever reason, he comes out with THIS outrageous "liberal" dreck. And, if THIS wasn't bad enough, he made even more bizarre--and SOME might say misogynistic--attacks against Miss Pirro when he said the following (and, be warned, this part of Brand's diatribe gets rather disturbing): 

“I don’t recommend it, but there are porn sites available where you can let a woman abuse you. There on the camera, she’ll go like, ‘Look at you, look at your little dick. Think that I fulfill you? Oh yeah, what are you going to do with that thing? Wanna smell my ass? Wanna sniff my bum bum?’ They say stuff like that… This woman is like those people.”

Are you seriously kidding me with THIS? Could you just imagine the shit-storm that would no doubt erupt if some right-wing entertainer came out and said THIS about some female left-winger? Remember when the lefties all had a collective coronary and tried to get Rush Limbaugh kicked off the air when he made that "joke" about that college student who testified before Congress how the government should pay for women's birth control being a "prostitute"? But here we have this "liberal" toolbag saying that a right-wing woman is not only a "savage" but could be on a PORN site where women "abuse" men? (And, by the way, just how in the hell does he know of the "existence" of said porn sites?) What makes this all the MORE ironic is that the lefties, of course, are always harping about the right's so-called "war on women" and/or how we should ALL engage in "civil" discourse. And, of course, not only has there NOT been any noticeable outrage from the left over Russell Brand's YouTube rant but, from what I've read, lefties have gone-on-record applauding what Brand said about Fox (Non) News and/or Jeanine Pirro. (Which shouldn't come as no surprise since former MSNBC nutjob Keith Olbermann made the same pronouncement about Fox News when he stated how the "news" channel was--that's right!--WORSE than Al Qaeda in his Playboy Interview years ago and the lefties said NOTHING.) And, of course, the lefties were all "outraged" when Bill O'Reilly once called the ACLU a "terrorist organization" on his show. Of course, according to Leftie Logic, one can get away with calling someone a "terrorist" so long as it's a leftie doing it, right, lefties?

I would like to give a personal message to Russell Brand if I may: Mr. Brand, if you ever read this (which I sincerely hope you do!), I would just like to let you know I will no longer watch anymore of your TV shows and/or movies and I certainly WON'T listen to anything else you have to say on ANYTHING. I do this NOT because I'm "defending" Fox (Non) News and/or Jeanine Pirro, of course, but rather because anyone who goes-on-record saying something as outlandish as someone merely expressing an opinion is more "savage" than someone who kills civilians, including CHILDREN, is someone I do NOT wish to give my "support" and/or further waste my time listening to, you know what I mean? What I find all the more ironic about your diatribe is how you're always saying how we should all just love and/or respect each other and whatnot. If THIS is what you consider love and/or respect, you can your love/respect and shove it up your British arse, you sanctimonious, hypocritical toolbag!

Shit, no wonder Katy Perry left THIS guy!

And here's another thing about Russell Brand: Before his dumb-as-shit rant against Fox (Non) News, Russell Brand actually DEFENDED pop star Justin Beiber after he came out with not one but TWO "racist" videos where he said The N Word MANY times, including in a little "racist" ditty he wrote. Brand's "defense" of the little moppet-haired D-Bag saying The N Word MANY times in those videos was that he was just 15-years-old at the time and therefore didn't know what he was saying. You know, that particular argument may--and I say MAY--have worked if he was, say, five instead of fifteen because I knew when I was fifteen I was well aware of the FACT that saying The N Word in reference to African-Americans was a BAD thing. Frankly, I think Russell Brand should just stick to telling dick jokes and should just kindly STFU about politics since, quite frankly, HE'S A DUMB FUCKING MORON!!!! You think? Anyway, here's the link to an article "discussing" Russell's inexplicable DEFENSE of the embattled pop dud (along with Whoopi Goldberg who also DEFENDED Justin who also, if you'll recall, DEFENDED child rapist Roman Polanski by saying that him drugging AND raping a defenseless 13-year-old girl years ago DIDN'T amount to what Whoopi called, and I quote, "rape-rape"): http://www.fashionnstyle.com/articles/20588/20140605/russell-brand-whoopi-goldberg-defend-racist-justin-bieber-video.htm

Oh yeah, before I forget, Russell Brand has also gone-on-record defending and/or praising COMMUNISM in both his aptly-titled "comedy" show Messiah Complex along with other interviews and such, implying or saying how COMMUNISM--such as massive wealth redistribution and the like--would be the PERFECT way to "cure" society out of ALL its ills. Never mind the fact that COMMUNISM has left approximately 100 million dead over the last century. Brand more or less just sweeps this FACT under the rug by saying how the COMMUNISTS got it wrong. Gee, Russell, you think? Ironically, under COMMUNISM, Russell Brand would more-than-likely NOT enjoy the successful "entertainment" career he currently enjoys where he makes a reported $10 million-per-picture and who reportedly lives in a mansion in Beverly Hills. To be fair (and let's NOT forget balanced!), Russell does do considerable "charity" work. However, if he truly believes his own claptrap about "massive wealth redistribution" and whatnot, he's perfectly free to give away--or "redistribute"--his own massive wealth anytime he pleases, you know what I mean? So, to reiterate, "comedian" Russell Brand called a woman a "savage" for daring to suggest we bomb terrorists who are murdering civilians in cold blood and has praised a brutal form of government that's left millions of billions of people DEAD.

I guess we know who the TRUE "savage" is, don't we, Russell?

Oh, by the way, between 1999 and 2001, the U.S. and British-led air forces in Iraq dropped approximately 1.3 MILLION pounds of bombs in response to purported violations of the no-fly zones and anti-aircraft fire from Saddam Hussein. And, let's see, who WAS the U.S. President during THAT time? Oh yeah, that's right! BILL CLINTON!!!! I wonder if Russell Brand would call HIM a "savage"? Somehow I seriously doubt it!

A sidenote: Here's the link to Russell Brand's insipid anti-Fox (Non) News YouTube rant for anyone who is interested in wasting their time watching the damn thing: http://youtu.be/Q2FSMvrlUlY

MY TAKE ON THE BERGDAHL/BENGHAZI "CONTROVERSIES" (Or Why Bill O'Reilly Will ALWAYS Be A D-Bag!)

Here's some FACTS you'll NEVER hear on Fox (Non) News!

This isn't, of course, an actual book by Bill O'Reilly
(but, of course, it COULD be!).

"Bill O'Reilly looks like a D-Bag!"

Believe it or not, Jesse Watters actually asked THIS guy
if he thought Bob Bergdahl looked like a Muslim!

Here's proof that the right will "support" guys with long beards
so long as they "worship" the RIGHT god (right--get it?)!

This pic of Sean Hannity is pretty self-explanatory, don't ya think?

TERRORISTS!!!! Oh, sorry, that's just the guys from ZZ Top!

Bowe Bergdahl (top center pic) with the so-called Taliban 5
(the Taliban pics are reportedly from Fox's favorite site Wikileaks!).

Right-wingers/"conservatives" have gotten their rightie panties in a bunch yet again, this time over the Bowe Bergdahl/Taliban prisoner "exchange" and/or Benghazi. Both of these "controversies" have been spearheaded by--who else!--Fox (Non) News and right-wing talk radio. And, of course, these right-wing geniuses know precisely who's to blame for said "controversies": OBAMA. Or, as the righties would have everyone believe, The Son Of Satan (or Allah, whichever the case may be!)! First, let's talk about the insipid Bergdahl controversy. As everyone no doubt knows by now, the Obama Administration "exchanged" POW Bowe Bergdahl--who was  captured by the Taliban when he left his post for some unknown reason--for five Taliban members who had been held at the infamous Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. Of course, the ensuing "outrage" about said prisoner "exchange" from the right has been deafening. The righties have been implying or outright saying said prisoner "swap" should NEVER have happened and that it therefore will put American lives at risk by having said Taliban members back into civilization again and blah blah blah blah. There's just one tiny little problem with all this "outrage" from the right about the Bergdahl/Taliban exchange: 

GEORGE W. BUSH ALSO "RELEASED" TALIBAN "DETAINEES" FROM GITMO!!!!

That's right! Bush, while he was (allegedly) President, released a number of Taliban members who were being held at Gitmo without so much as a peep from the SAME right-wing commentators on Fox (Non) News and right-wing talk radio who are now calling for Obama's--and, of course, Bergdahl's--head on a silver platter. I haven't been able to get an exact number, but some estimates have it as high as over 500. And get THIS: one of said Taliban members who was "released" from Gitmo while Dubya was (supposedly) President was reportedly "linked" to the fiasco that was Benghazi where, on the evening of September 11, 2012, Islamic militants attacked American diplomats at Benghazi in Libya, thereby killing U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and Sean Smith who was U.S. Foreign Service Information Management Officer. But, there again, in all the rampant criticisms of the Benghazi debacle from the righties there has not been ONE single mention of this.

Surprising, isn't it?

Not to go easy on Obama. Even left-wingers have been collectively scratching their heads wondering aloud why Obama made this "deal" with the dreaded Taliban. Of course, there again, if Bush had made the SAME "deal" with said Taliban the SAME right-wingers who are now--and have always--gone after Obama with such a vengeance would be lining up to kiss Dubya's ass and anyone who dared "criticize" said "deal" would be labeled as--that's right!--"unpatriotic"--and even worse--by said right-wingers. 

Again, surprising, isn't it?

One thing I find most distasteful AND disgraceful about the Bergdahl "controversy" is the attacks made against Bowe's father Bob Bergdahl (or Baghdad Bob, as he's come to be known within certain right-wing circles), specifically the appearance made with President Obama in the Rose Garden with his wife wherein he was sporting a beard--which he grew because he dared wanted to show "solidarity" with his captured son--and gave a Muslim-esque prayer wherein he praised Allah. Noted Fox (Non) News loudmouth/D-Bag Bill O'Reilly sneeringly said on his show The O'Reilly Factor how Mr. Bergdahl "looked like a Muslim" and attacked him for "praising Allah" and whatnot. Bill even sent his "stalker producer"--as former MSNBC pundit/nutjob Keith Olbermann once rightfully referred to him--Jesse Watters down to the Bergdahl's hometown of Hailey, Idaho to get the townsfolk "reaction" to Bowe being released. Understandably, most of those he "interviewed" didn't appear to be too pleased about having HIM asking rather sensitive questions about Bergdahl and his family (i.e. as to whether or not his father was truly a Muslim to which a family friend vehemently said NO). Anyway, Bill O's attacks against not only Bergdahl but his family were reminiscent of the venomous attacks Billdo lobbied against Cindy Sheehan, who, if you'll recall, was the grieving mother who had lost her son who was serving in Iraq because she had dared "question" the legitimacy of Dubya's insipid "war" in Iraq that cost the life of her dear son. By the way, that Muslim-esque prayer made by Mr. Bergdahl that have made the righties cry foul is reportedly the very SAME "prayer" made by Muslim dignitaries who've visited the White House, including--gasp!--the Bush White House.

Whoops!

My personal view about the "release" of Bowe Bergdahl and/or what type of soldier he truly was--e.g. whether or not he was a "deserter" for leaving his post (as, of course, he's been accused of being by not only the right but by his outfit as well, which, according to some "news" sources, had "issues" of its own)--is that the military should conduct a thorough investigation as to what precisely happened with Bergdahl. If there's evidence that he did indeed commit desertion and/or "collaborated" with his Taliban captors (as he's, of course, also been accused of being by the right even WITHOUT evidence of which even Bill O'Reilly has said there's been no "evidence" of), then I say let the MILITARY handle it. But, then again, you know damn good & well if Bergdahl had died under Taliban captivity the right--and, yes, that includes Fox (Non) News!--would've gone after Obama--again!--and how he doesn't care about the welfare of our soldiers fighting overseas and blah blah blah blah. 

"Fair & Balanced" as always!

I'll give ONE thing to Bowe Bergdahl: whatever his "faults" might be and whatever he might actually be "guilty" of, at least he actually signed up for military service unlike, of course, all of the right-wing chickenhawks--or at least 99.9 1/2 % of them!--who have NEVER spent a single damn day in the military (one "macho" asshole on Fox actually took a swipe at Bowe for doing ballet when he was younger). Of course, these very SAME right-wing chickenhawks--like, for instance, Rush Limbaugh who's given varying "excuses" as to why he didn't get drafted during Vietnam like a "football knee" to a boil on his big, fat ass--have never been shy about shamelessly using the troops for their own political purposes. For instance, Bill O'Reilly actually stated on his now-defunct radio show how he thought the then-scandal involving the shoddy medical treatment our (supposedly) beloved veterans were receiving at Walter Reed was, and I quote, BORING. However, since this very same shameless scandal has erupted AGAIN during the Obama Administration--i.e. military veterans receiving substandard and even delayed medical treatment which has reportedly caused at least some deaths--Bill all of sudden becomes the vets's BIGGEST champion/defender. So, let me see if I got this straight, Billdo, systematic abuse of our veterans during a REPUBLICAN administration is, as you put it, BORING but the SAME systematic abuse of said veterans during a DEMOCRATIC administration is indeed scandalous? 

Makes sense to me!

And, while we're at it, here's my final take on the Benghazi "controversy": I actually agree with the right--for once!--that there SHOULD be an investigation into what precisely happened at Benghazi and why there was loss-of-life. However, there SHOULD have been an investigation whenever the SAME thing happened--and more than ONCE, I might add--during the Bush Administration, which, not surprisingly, the righties NEVER advocated. I mean, if there in fact were investigations into similar attacks on U.S. embassies and/or consulates during the Bush Administration, then maybe--just maybe!--what happened at Benghazi would not have happened.

You think?  

A sidenote: Sean Hannity--who once promised on his show on Fox (Non) News that he would allow himself to be waterboarded for charity that benefited families of veterans (and then, in typically rightie chickenhawk fashion, immediately backed off said vow when the aforementioned leftie nutjob Keith Olbermann took him up on his offer)--actually had on his show none other than Oliver "Mr. Iran-Contra" North AND Pat Buchanan to "discuss" the Bowe Bergdahl/Taliban 5--as they've come to be called by the righties--prisoner exchange. Yeah, let's hear the opinions about THIS from someone who HAS "negotiated" with terrorists and/or an A-Hole/D-Bag who actually once wrote a book wherein he claimed it was "wrong" for the U.S. to have fought Hitler--let me repeat!--HITLER during World War II!

Again, "Fair & Balanced" as always!

And, while we're at it, here's rightie "hero" Ronald Reagan admitting/not admitting to "negotiating" with Iranian terrorists during the Iran-Contra scandal (since, you know, said righties have insisted a Republican President would NEVER "negotiate" with terrorists!):

BILL MAHER vs. ANN COULTER (Or The "Difference" Between Right & Left)

Bill Maher's commentary on "gay" marriage.

Ann Coulter & Bill Maher "debating" one another.

Bill Maher & Ann Coulter demonstrating a "difference" between right & left.

Bill Maher & Ann Coulter: 2 sides of the SAME coin?

Bill Maher & Ann Coulter in "happy" times.

Bristol Palin: a single mom Ann Coulter will NEVER demonize!

Noted "liberal" comedian/commentator Bill Maher has consistently attacked organized religion--which included a documentary of sorts called Religulous--and especially religious institutions such as marriage, saying in interviews and on his HBO show how he never plans to wed in "holy" matrimony since, as he's put it, he doesn't want to "involve" the government in his relationship. However, Bill has gone on record endorsing "gay" marriage. The obvious question to THAT would be why would he advocate that the government be "involved" in a "gay" couple's relationship? On the flipside of that would be noted "conservative" commentator/gasbag--and Bill Maher's purported onetime "girlfriend"--Ann Coulter who has not only unsurprisingly spoken out against "gay" marriage, saying how there should even be a constitutional amendment banning "gay" marriage altogether, but she has also touted the "sacred" institution of so-called "traditional" marriage, i.e. marriage between a "straight" man and woman. Ann has also gone on record virtually demonizing single mothers (except for, of course, Sarah Palin's knocked-up unmarried daughter Bristol Palin!), implying or saying how single moms are "responsible" for virtually most if not all crime committed in this country. However, Ann has NEVER been married nor has she had ANY children. And THIS is the "difference" between the right and the left in THIS country? Some damn "difference," don't ya think?

Here's a rather humorous clip of Ann Coulter on Bill Maher's HBO show (at least Ann can take a joke, at least from her ex-"boyfriend"!):
