Exorcising Trump



THE ABSURD TIMES


Obviously, reason will not work, so let us try some magic!





We are going to have to use the latest insights of Noetic Science to Exorcise Donald Trump, and perhaps Hillary, from the campaign.   We will need all to concentrate on the magic square below and precisely 24:00 GMT and consider the flowing truths about it.  The date will be 6/29/2019.

Here are the ideas to focus on.  Add all the numbers in any row, or top to bottom and you will get 34.  This is any row.



Well, try it on a column, from left to right.  34.



Try adding any diagonal.  34.



Take any quadrant; say the four squares in the upper right hand corner.  34.



Upper left hand corner?  34.



Lower left hand four?  34.



Lower right hand four? 34.



How about the quadrant in the center? 34.



The middle four squares? 34.



How about the four squares in each corner?  34.



If we all focus on that, and say "34, Trump's a Whore," he will collapse.



Start over and say, each time, "34, Hillary Whore," and maybe it will work.

If not, we will need an 8 x 8 square for here.

Stray Thoughts

Sometimes, there is something to say and share that simply will not fit
into twitter and is too short for a blog. Facebook, yes, but that
eliminates some people who may otherwise be interested. So, this is
starting.

RADICAL RELIGION & HOMOPHOBIA







THE ABSURD TIMES










Lately, we have seen a great deal of attention given to domestic issues and nobody benefits from this more than Hillary Clinton.  Rather than rehas all of Hillary's war-mongering, we decided to focus on the domestic aspects of recent events.



The first seems to be Donald Trump (who is regularly called "Tramp" in many publications).  His big solution to all of our problems is that use the phrase "Radical Islam."  The reasoning seems to be that once we do that, all the terrorist attacks will stop.  It would seem most logical to also use the terms "Radical Christianity" for other people who commit massacres, and probably "Radical Judaism" for supporters of Israel, at least those who are busy passing laws to prohibit anti-bds activity.  Of course, Radical Xtianity is also behind such legislation. 



Of course, Trump has shifted a bit, instead talking about banning anyone who came from a country that has had terrorism problems, point of origin, so to speak.  Of course, he thought that the Orlando creep was born in Afghanistan, but it turns out that he was born in Queens NY.  Well, let's ban all people born in Queens, including Trump.  Better yet, lets build a wall around queens.  I never cared about Queens anyway.  Brooklyn was OK, maybe Manhattan, but not Queens.  So Trump has to be rounded up and deported and re-enter this country legally or go to Queens once the wall is constructed.



Radical Christianity has its own tradition, and the Spanish Inquisition and the Salem Witchcraft trials are a couple.  The reckless bombing of Gaza is an example of Radical Judaism. 



See, all of this is based on a literal, although illiterate, reading to the so-called Holy Books.  If you want to see some of the tenants of Radical Christianity and Judaism, you can read Deuteronomy and Leviticus.  They are especially harsh on women who "grabbeth a man by his secrets." 



Now we have this mess in Orlando.  Some guy whose father says he was offended by seeing two men kissing got an automatic rifle (perfectly legal under today's gun laws) and started shooting.  Same type of gun that was used in Sandy Hook by radical Christians I suppose and at the movie theaters by a radical Batman aficionado.  These guns require hardly any skill.  Not even average hand-eye co-ordination is required.  Just a lot of bullets.



Well, should men kiss each other in public?  Well, they got the right.  I'm not thrilled by it, nor by two women, nor by a man and a woman, nor by a woman breast feeding, nor by Cocoa Puffs, but what the hell?  If it turns them on, let them.



Then what about LBGTQ rights?  I'm not sure yet what the Q stands for, but it is not Quixotic, I'm pretty sure.  Why get into a fuss about it?



One could honestly suspect that Donald Trump is a plant by the Democratic party to make sure that the Republican Party is crushed this year, and it may well work, sort of like Barry Goldwater did back in the 60s.  Instead of Daddy Koch's John Birch Society, we have the sons' Tea party rooting out radical Islam and homosexuality. 



Oh yes, and abortion.  DNA and the fetus is nothing more than a blueprint.  Any man and woman waste hundreds of thousands of potential Beethovins every time they have any sort of release.  So when does the blueprint become a human?  Don't human's have opposable thumbs, the ability to walk on two legs, of speech unless something was wrong with the blueprint?  Maybe Leviticus knows.



I do know one thing: ISIL, and Isilanity, would be very happy to be called Radical Islamists.

Ali v. Lies



 THE ABSURD TIMES




 



Mohammed Ali v. Lies

By

Jack Hammer



So many times during the last few days I've seen people talking about Ali after he died and shouted "Bullshit …", that the times asked me to comment.  I wanted to just say it outright, but this is a written forum.  So here it is.



Most of the coverage of Ali has been by sportswriters who are almost all very stupid about everything except sports.  When Ali began, sports commentators at best had high-school educations.  There were a few notable exceptions back then and a few now, but it is not an area where social consciousness is ripe.



Before Ali's first fight with Liston, someone told me "Liston'll kill him."  I made a bet and it was one of the most lucrative bets I ever made. 



The guy who said that was a baseball player on the same team as me.  However, I was a pitcher and hence smarter.



People had not seen Cassius Clay in Rome at the Olympics.  He won first place and was overwhelmingly a better boxer than the rest of the team and competition combined.  The Polish opponent had nothing but praise for him.  People didn't get the rules either.  At least at that time, fighters scored points for hitting the opponent, no mater whether lightly or hard.  Clay was fast and a light heavy weight.  His speed was unmatched.  JFK was President.



When Clay went back to Louisville to eat in a white only restaurant (after all, he had represented the United States) he was refused.  Soon after, he threw his gold medal away (not much later and you hear on the media, even today).



When the guy made the bet, he had no idea of what he was talking about.  I told him "He won't even see him."  The amount increased.



That time I brushed him back first.



At that time, the fight game was run by organized crime, large and small.  The fighters got almost nothing.  J. Edgar Hoover liked it that way.  After all, the Mob knew about his cross-dressing.



Also at that time, Malcolm X was doing the radio broadcasts for the Black Mulsims, or the "Nation of Islam" and he was an amazing speaker over, I think, WEEW radio in Evanston, Illinois.  Later, when the "Nation" started to mess with him, Elijah Mohammed took over those broadcasts and it was clear how strange he was.  Malcolm had gone to the Pilgrimage in Mecca and changed greatly.  Ali did not, but Malcolm had recruited him.



After Clay won the fight against Liston, the Nation or Black Muslims moved in and took control and that was what started the real trouble.  The FBI had already been tapping Malcolm's phone and now they tapped Ali's as well.   Organized crime lost control of the business and this upset a lot of people and the propaganda started.



All but a very few sports announcers still called him Clay.  Other than a few black reporters, only one of not called him "Mohammed Ali," and that was Howard Cosell.  People still like to hate Cosell.  However, he graduated from law school and hence knew a bit more than the others, perhaps an unfair advantage.



After that, he had several Championship fights, not avoiding anyone as most champions did.  He continued until they drafted him.  The first time, he could not pass the "IQ" test for the Army.  I knew an utter fool who bought beer by the case (quarts) who was nearly mindless and who reported that he had "one of the top three tests" for the marines, meaning he was third.  This was when Ali tested even lower, much lower.



As his reputation grew, JFK was assassinated and the war grew as well.  People started to avoid the draft, especially people like Dick Cheney.  Ali was reclassified.  Only Howard Cosell put him on the air as Ali refused induction.  Freedom of religion.  He also said "Aint no Viet Cong never called me nigger."



Just about everyone was attacking him or, as one reporter put it a day or so ago, "except for black youth and a few people in the counter-culture".  Well, I guess I was a part of the counter-culture because I thought he had the right.  So did Cosell.



The case went to the Supreme Court, after three and a half years, and he won unanimously, 8-0, and was informed of this by, you guessed it, Howard Cosell, who had also predicted it. 



The rest of the story becomes more accurate.  Ali later became a Sunni Muslim like Malcolm did, although after Malcolm was assassinated, just as were Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy. 



There is no time now to refute all the garbage about his "cruelty," other than to remark that trash talk is rampant in sports and always has been.  Some say he carried Floyd Patterson and kept yelling what's my name and would not knock him out because he would not call him Ali.  However, in a later fight, lang after Ali should have retired, he fought Larry Holmes.  Holmes kept telling the referee to stop the fight as Ali was being seriously hurt.  The referee did not, but he could have, easily.  The same applied to the Patterson incident.  The referee could have stopped it if he thought it best.



Right now, there are only two sportscasters whom you can trust to talk about this: Kieth Olbermann and Bob Costas. 



Ali was and is known around the world and widely seen as a hero.  He had Parkinson's and that is constantly referred to as caused by boxing.  Maybe.  However, Michael J. Fox was never a prizefighter.  At any rate, boxing has not been a major sport for some time now. 



So, on Thursday, and the Friday, there will be a funeral and a burial for Ali.  Just remember the truth as the "reporters" talk.

THE ABSURD TIMES




THE ABSURD TIMES





Have you noticed that the corporate media has anointed Clinton and Hawked Trump?


Illustration by Latuff

We told you some time ago about how foolish it was to depose Gaddafi.  The UN resolution was to “ensure the safety of citizen’s in Lybia.”  That’s all.  That is why Russia and China went along with it.  There was no mandate for regime change.  That is why Russia and China will not vote with us or believe us again.

Gaddafi provided jobs for thousands of refugees from North Africa.  Without him, ISIS has taken over half of Libya, especially Benghazi, and above you see another consequence of the action.

Most important is that we predicted all of this in the Absurd Times.  Supporting Erdogan in Turkey (who has censored Latuff, officially, not even Israel stooping so low) has also led to scenes such as above.

Now, there is a great fuss over who can remember Mohammed Ali the best.  Back then, the race was to vilify home the most.

For all of these reason and more, we are opening the ABSURD UNIVERSITY.  It is not accredited, of course, and such an idea would be absurd in itself.  If you have any credit hours at Trump University or were in any way associated with it, you are not eligible. 

Entrance exams include questions such as the following:

1)      Who was behind the Law Firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe?
2)      [ed. Note] all other questions have been censored.

There will be no more editions of this publication until somebody says something worthwhile.  Have a nice summer.  (You can find worthwhile coverage of events on You Tube on the YOUNG TURKS show – reporters once on MSNBC and CURRENT.)
