Governor Election

Thankfully, Billionaire Meg Whitman failed to buy the Governor's seat. She spent over $140 Million of her own money and lost it all! Suddenly I feel better about all that time I wasted trying to make money on E-Bay...here it is:

U.S. Senate

Boxer kicked ass on Fiorina; let's face it, Barbara was just sexier....

Lieutenant Governor

Gavin Newsom, laid waste to Republican, Abel Maldenado

Republican candidate for Attorney General, was lost by the Democrat, Kamala D. Harris, (sorry Phil, I know you had a crush,) to Republican, Steve Cooley.

U.S. House: Dist 11

Taken by the Republican David Harmer (let's think about the name people)with only a 3% spread.

Prop 19 (The right to recreational Marijuana)

Beaten by a swing of about 10%.

Prop 23

Californians said No. Fuck the Oil Companies!

I could go on, but I think you get the point...

DON'T VOTE REPUBLICAN WHATEVER YOU DO!

I remember. Do you remember?

SHAMAN ARRESTED FOR POSSESSION OF HOLY SACRAMENT

Constitutional interpretation wasn't difficult until we started trying to control substances. No one has the right to tell anybody else what they can or can't put into their own body. This kind of freedom has its roots in The Declaration of Independence (which has no influence on U.S. Law for some strange reason) and several of the amendments to the constitution known as The Bill Of Rights, which limits the governments ability to intrude into people's lives (but for some reason has been largely ignored for the past 100 years).

Freedom of religion was one of the main principles upon which this country was founded, and along with that the freedom to practice one's religion with the use of certain substances which allow one to commune with God. The sacred South American herb, Ayahuasca has been know to heal people from physical as well as mental ailments and many people who have used it say it has opened their minds in many ways.

The arrest of Taita Juan Agreda Chindoy, by U.S. customs officials is, in my opinion, an affront to the freedoms held most dear to America, and an attack on the most basic of human freedoms.

Life, liberty and happiness to all!

GREEN PARTY CANDIDATE ARRESTED AT GUBERNATORIAL DEBATE!

This isn't the first time Green Party candidates have been wrongfully persecuted in order to prevent them from taking part in the democratic process. The two-party system is a farce!

REPUBLICANS STAND WITH BP AGAINST SPILL INVESTIGATION

Why would republicans stand against an investigation into the Gulf oil-spill? It is no mystery to me...they are trying to protect the special interest groups that most of them own stock in.



Anybody have any other ideas?

SAME SEX MARRIAGE DEMONSTRATION

Youtube wouldn't publish this because it was against their "Guidelines." Nudity is allowed on Youtube if it serves an educational purpose. This is educational in my opinion, and it is clearly a matter of free speech. There is nothing prurient about this video and these people are demonstrating in front of City Hall. I would like to know why the cop in the video didn't arrest them if this is so indecent?

TAXES, WELFARE, UNEMPLOYMENT AND DRUGS

I get tired of right-wing, conservatives always complaining how their taxes go to helping the "lazy, immoral, and/or stupid drug using" people on welfare.  

First, that portion of federal tax dollars that actually go to welfare is so small that the government would not save much by excluding the tiny portion of people who could be excluded for drug-use.  Over 75% of all federal tax dollars go to the military for blowing stuff up--if that money was used to build schools and hospitals, we probably wouldn't have anyone out of work.

Second, people who have lost their jobs due to involvement with drugs are already precluded from collecting unemployment, whether that makes sense or not.

Third, people who collect unemployment have already had money taken out of their paychecks to cover the premiums for unemployment insurance.

Fourth, all of these people on welfare which the small-minded author suspects of sitting around doing drugs instead of looking for work, are also tax-payers.

Fifth, urinalysis is useful for screening some drugs such as marijuana, which stay in the system for at least thirty days.  However, other even more destructive drugs, such as cocaine, speed, and alcohol, pass through the system much faster and are therefore harder to detect so drug testing is more likely to exclude soft-drug users as opposed to hard-drug users.

SADDAM SNUFF FILM

I never bought the whole "Snuff Saddam!" thing. His trial was a complete sham in my opinion. In case you were too young to remember, here it is, but be careful, this is not for the squeamish:

Did you notice that no other faces were discernible, except that of the doomed man? I am not even sure that it is an authentic execution...did you see how they turned up his collar around his neck and carefully placed the rope around it? If it was a real execution this man appears to have been the victim of a "political assassination," a practice that has been declared to be a war-crime in the United States Of America, as well as every other civilized country.

KING OF THE HILL - THE MINUTEMEN

These guys are true patriots. When will the conservatives in this country wake up and realize they are the causing all these problems? 



Still just as true today as when they wrote this song. Please post comments below!

LAURA WELLS FOR GOVERNOR OF CALIFORNIA

The Devil's Advocate is hereby announcing it's support for the Green Party Candidate for Governor of California, Laura Wells. Here is a link to her website: http://www.laurawells.org/ Please visit her website and make a contribution to her campaign today.

The Republican candidate, Meg Whitman, has been trying to buy the election with her piles of ill-gotten corporate money. She has been spending a record of over $140 million of her own cash running negative ads against the Democrat candidate, Jerry Brown. Don't let her buy the election! While Jerry Brown is a good candidate, lets not forget that both Democrats and Republicans are responsible for the collective mess that we find ourselves in these days.

By voting for the Green Party, the only party that represents Mother Earth, you can help send a message to both the Democrats and Republicans that they need to change their evil ways.

(VIDEO) ICE-CAPS ARE MELTING FAST!

How anyone can still say they are not is beyond me.

In the seventies the conservative position was that global warming was a myth; in the nineties they started to grudgingly agree that it was a possibility, but refused to acknowledge that the problem was caused by human activities; now, near the end of 2010, only the least evolved of conservatives will deny that global warming is real and at least partly caused by human co2 emissions. Unfortunately, it appears that now it is too late. By the time the world can react to this crisis, the point of no return will likely be past and it will be anybody's guess whether our race survives.



Even if we do survive, life will never be the same. The human condition is about to change in a way we won't fully understand for a long time to come.
