Thank You

I waited till the day after the election before putting my hand to pen. I wanted to make absolutely sure that there wasn't going to be any type of recount or court involvement, as we know that has happened before.







It is official Barack Obama is the 44th President of the United States of America and already he has started keeping his campaign promises. Obama promised that the democratic map would expand and it did. There weren't riots in the streets, quite the opposite there was joy and hope in the streets. The American people got back something they have been missing, their belief that their voices did matter, they relearn that we the people do in fact hold the power as long as we are willing to work for it.

I wanted to get some facts out there before all the bullshit starts in hopes that maybe this will stop a handful of scared, hateful people in their tracks. First fact I wanted to put out there is; unlike what some are already saying, it was not one group that elected President Obama it was the voices of many from all demographics. Obama won popular vote 53% to 47% and I'm going to break that down a bit. African-Americans made up 13% of the vote, voters under 30 (this included first time voters and the young vote) made up 18% of the vote. Now if you add all this together that is 31% of the vote leaving 22% which did NOT fall into young or African-American vote.

These are the facts, we the American people elected Obama, people from all races, religions, gender, and age. We came together and spoke with a united voice, we all want a better country for our children and grandchildren to come. We wanted to show the world that no matter what affliction comes our way we can and we do come together to expand on the very principals of our country, equality, freedom and justice.

I have always said it is the American people I have hope for and believe in and now I hope the world can understand why Americans are proud of their country and why they think the US is the best system out there. Is it perfect, of course not but that is part of the beauty to know we had a solid foundation to build upon and that we can always move our country towards a more perfect union.

As President Obama said in his acceptance speech last night, this is our victory. Every single person that made calls, knocked on doors, donated $5.00, helped at the polls and voted, this is your victory, this is America's victory and the world's.

Although there are already many saying President Obama isn't their president, that is ok because you are his fellow Americans and he will be a president for all, even to those that disagree with him or refuse to call him their President. He will be a servant of the people as is the duty of the president, he will not dictate to us, he will not try to be King Obama, he will work tireless for all Americans, even you.

To every single American I want to thank you for all you have done, and to ask you to not slack off now. There is a hell of a lot of work ahead and it will be a long and sometimes a rough road, but it will always be a road worth travelling.

YES WE CAN & YES WE DID

OBAMA'S SUPPORT OFTHE FISA BILL

I would tell all you people that feel as though Obama has "granted" retroactive immunity by voting for this bill to look at "The Verdict" with Dan Abrams from July 8th.

The bill actually provides clarity to FISAs role and doesn't grant telecoms retroactive immunity. Because the LAW (even previous to what has transpired) has always said telecoms are immune when the AG requests their assistance. With this bill, immunity will only apply in those VERY CASES!! Immunity will not be given to any tele-com that did things on their own or when requested by anyone other than the AG. It also ensures that Bush and the administration make available to the senate and house all that transpired (something the previous bill, didn't) during that time-frame.

Most people that are against this have little knowledge of the history of FISA and this revision (and I say a REVISION) of this bill. We had FISA laws for a few decades now, the problem was that BUSH ignored those laws and went on and did things unconstitutionally.

This bill is to put those laws back in play and force Bush or any other future president to not be irresponsible with our liberities of the 4th Amendment.

By REJECTING this bill it would mean that the 4th amendment is not protected at all, that Bush continues doing whatever he wants! I know it's not a perfect bill, but it's better than no bill at all and keeping things just as they are.

Which one would you rather choose? I would rather have this and get some control back and some protection and after Obama is elected get it modified again to the will of the people.

Is it a violation of the 4th amendment? Depends on your view, but it's always been the LAW. If a tele-com is asked for assistance by the AG, they are provided immunity, that has always been the case!

According to Obama, he feels that the law still needs to be on the books. Democrats are willing to compromise on this for now and vote. But just hold on folks, only 6 months of this and then the law will be REVISED and the 4th amendment will count again.

McCain's IDEA OF HUMOR

I'm sure you all remember a few months ago when McCain first joked about killing Iranians when he sang "bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" to the tune of the Beach Boys' hit "Barbara Ann".

And how could we ever forget McCain saying "My friends, in these trying times in which we live, there's one thing all Americans can agree on: killing Iranians is hilarious."

With such great hits, who would have ever thought McCain could give us more?Fret no more all you fans of McCain's top hits, I got good news for you.

Just yesterday McCain commented that the U.S. could kill Iranians with cigarettes, was apparently "just warming up," one of his aides said today. "Anyone who has enjoyed Sen. McCain's side-splitting jokes about killing Iranians will be blown away by this list," the aide said. "He's in fine form."

McCain has a huge list of ways to kill Iranians from mordant to capricious. How could we ever forget McCain suggesting a sure death for Iranian would be to "Tell Christie Brinkley that Iran has been cheating on her."

But McCain's best hit of all times in how to kill Iranians is "Vote for me"

You know McCain just might have found his calling, as a comedian.

Well lets face it people McCain's calling sure isn't in the White house.

WE CATER TO COWARDS

It seems that we have some very immature visitors to The Rattler. It seems these handful of cowardly scum just can't leave well enough alone. It seems that JC's death is something they find humorous, and they don't care if JC's loved ones read their silly remarks.

So this is for all the chickenshits that enjoy causing others pain by their hidden nics and hateful words.

Below is a comment I made back to someone silly remarks on JC's memorial post (if you look at comments you will see I also listed their 'hidden' IP addy there which I have omitted from this posting)

This is a challenge to all of those little scary cats, come and reply and answers some questions you will see listed below.

One more thing in case your attention span can't read this entire posting:

Mark never put down others he only pointed out ones own silliness in the hope they would see how hurtful they were being and see that their or anyone's God intended for us all to love one another and show compassion to all we touch

Maybe this was/is too deep for heartless & soulless scum to understand, Mark only tried to point out ones OWN stupidity and biases, if you feel like he attacked you from a chatroom you need help, try looking into your own heart first.

Just to let you know I will not delete one single comment made to this posting and yet I get the feeling the cowards will not text here, I wonder if they will prove me wrong?

How can you be such a sad person that you like causing others such pain?

Did you bother reading the comments here, do you not know that JC's family comes here to read these comments and how it helps them feel a small sense of comfort? Also did you know that depression is not only mental, in fact depression is physical, its seems that depression is an imbalance of hormones that are produced and controlled by the brain.

Would you wish this on someone that died of cancer? Depression is PHYSICAL and to wish hell on one that died from depression is just as bad as wishing hell on someone that died of cancer, worst.

How would you feel if your hurtful comments caused another death? The death of a loved one of JC's who's pain is so deep and they are barely holding on and then they come here read your remark and it becomes the straw that broke their back.

Do you think your God would find that to be a desirable trait in one of his children?

Don't you think that God's word was meant for all, including you?
If so then you are saddening your God's heart. You aren't doing unto others, you are judging, you are NOT honoring God and I could list more.

Maybe instead of you coming here to cause pain to those you have never even spoken to, you should read you bible again and pray for understanding from God. For I fear if you continue to hurt others as you have been here you might find yourself in the position you wanted for others.

Mark never put down others he only pointed out ones own silliness in the hope they would see how hurtful they were being and see that their or anyone's God intended for us all to love one another and show compassion to all we touch.

So maybe it isn't Mark you dislike but yourself.

MCCAIN'S MISLEADING ATTACKS

MCCAIN'S MISLEADING ATTACK ON OBAMA'S TAX POLICY
Misleading information seems to be the norm from the Republicans lately. I am not suprised. The folloing comes from an email i recived.

THE MISLEADING MCCAIN RHETORIC:

“We need to keep the IRS from taking more of your
income and making life harder for small business.
If you believe you should pay more taxes, I am the
wrong candidate for you. Senator Obama is your
man. The choice in this election is stark and
simple. Senator Obama will raise your taxes. I
won't. I will cut them where I can. Jobs are the
most important thing our economy creates. When you
raise taxes in a bad economy you eliminate jobs.
I'm not going to let that happen. Senator Obama's
tax increases will hurt the economy even more, and
destroy jobs across this country.” [McCain Speech,
7/7/08]


THE FACTS: OUTSIDE OBSERVERS AGREE THAT CLAIMS
THAT OBAMA WILL RAISE TAXES ARE “WRONG,” “FALSE,”
“MISLEADING”

Washington Post Fact Checker: McCain Campaign
Attacks on Obama Tax Plan “Overblown,” “Wrong,”
and “Greatly Exaggerated.” “The McCain camp is
attempting to persuade Americans that their taxes
will increase dramatically with Barack Obama as
president. The presumptive Republican nominee has
repeatedly said that Obama would enact ‘the
largest tax increase since the Second World War.’
A surrogate, former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly
Fiorina, insists that Obama has not proposed ‘a
single tax cut’ and wants to ‘raise every tax in
the book.’ … The claim that Obama will ‘enact’
the largest tax increase since World War II is
also overblown. The Bush tax cuts will expire
automatically at the end of 2010, so it is hardly
a question of ‘enacting’ a new tax increase. ...
Carly Fiorina is wrong to claim that Obama has
proposed no tax cuts and wants to raise ‘every tax
in the book.’” [Washington Post, 6/11/08]

Politifact: McCain’s Statement That Obama’s Tax
Plan Would Raise Taxes Is “False.” Politifact
reported, “So calling it a tax increase might not
be considered fair. There's no disputing that
taxes will rise, but the question of who's
responsible for that tax increase is another
matter entirely. At PolitiFact, we've concluded,
as have others, that it's unfair to call Obama's
plan a tax increase merely because it doesn't
change existing tax law to keep rates low. We
think about it this way: The reason taxes will
increase is because of tax policy signed into law
not by Obama, but by somebody else… the more
recent data — combined with the fact that Obama's
proposal does not constitute a tax increase in the
traditional sense, since some taxes would be lower
under his plan than they would under current law —
persuades us to classify McCain's statement as
False.” [Politifact, 6/11/08]

FactCheck.Org: McCain's Largest Tax Increase
Charge Wrong and Misleading. According to the
Annenberg Public Policy Center’s Factcheck.org:
“By the measure most economists prefer, McCain is
wrong in his claim that Sens. Clinton and Obama
want to implement "the single largest tax increase
since the Second World War;"… At a more basic
level, it's misleading to tag Clinton and Obama
for something that was scheduled during the Bush
administration – the expiration of the 2001 and
2003 Bush tax cuts, which by law will occur at the
end of 2010.” [Factcheck.org, 5/14/2008]

THE FACTS: OBAMA’S TAX PLAN WILL PROVIDE A BIGGER
BREAK FOR MIDDLE CLASS FAMILIES THAN MCCAIN’S

According to the non partisan Tax Policy Center’s
computations, “under Mr. Obama’s plan, the middle
of the middle class, or those earning $37,595 to
$66,354, would see taxes cut by $1,042 a year.
Under Mr. McCain’s plan, taxes for people in that
category would also fall, but by $319; the largest
chunk of the benefits would go to those making
$2.8 million a year or more.” [New York Times,
6/13/08]

JESUS CLAUS MAY YOU FIND PEACE NOW

Sunday June 29, 2008, I received a phone call from Jesus Claus' Mother to let me know that Mark had left this world to find a better place. After tears shared and stories told Mark's Mom wanted to let me know that so many of us touched Mark in ways most didn't know.

Mark (JC) was always one that loved a great joke and he loved giving them, and Mark staying with his love of outing people, he requested we keep the Rattler going, something I promised I would do and I hope all of the authors of the Rattler will stay on and carry out Mark's wishes.

It seems in the last year I have had to posted too many of our dear friends passing, but this one hits me harder than the rest. Mark was more than my friend, he helped my heart to thaw and made me see love again in the world. I will truly miss him till the end of my days.

I know that Mark will be greatly missed by many, how many of us come to the Rattler with our morning coffee to get a laugh, breaking news, or simply to reflect?

The world is going to seem a bit dimmer, bit sadder without Mark in it, but we must carry on as Mark wished we would, and guys I'm so going to need your help.

Mark, may you find the peace you couldn't in life.

Pure Obama

The Obamatons of the mainstream media have failed to report one of the most chilling campaign promises thus far uttered by the presumptive Democrat nominee for president.
He made it before the Iowa caucus to a left-wing pacifist group that seeks to reallocate defense dollars to welfare programs. The lobbying group, Caucus for Priorities, was so impressed by Obama's anti-military offering that it steered its 10,000 devotees his way.
In a 132-word videotaped pledge (still viewable on YouTube), Obama agreed to hollow out the U.S. military by slashing both conventional and nuclear weapons.
The scope of his planned defense cuts, combined with his angry tone, is breathtaking. He sounds as if the military is the enemy, not the bad guys it's fighting. Here is a transcript:
"I'm the only major candidate who opposed this war from the beginning; and as president, I will end it.
"Second, I will cut tens of billions of dollars in wasteful spending. I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems. I will not weaponize space. I will slow our development of future combat systems.
"I will institute an independent defense priorities board to ensure that the Quadrennial Review is not used to justify unnecessary defense spending.
"Third, I will set a goal for a world without nuclear weapons. To seek that goal, I will not develop nuclear weapons; I will seek a global ban on the production of fissile material; and I will negotiate with Russia to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert, and to achieve deep cuts in our nuclear arsenal."
You can bet that Obama will not make this sweeping indictment of our security forces again as he tries to move to the center in the general election. But this is what he thinks, and this is what he plans to do.
His campaign Web site doesn't list a separate category for military or defense under "Issues." But search shows near-identical language there regarding nuclear weapons.
His plan, needless to say, is frighteningly irresponsible given the world threats.
While there is fat in the defense budget, defense spending both as a share of GDP and the total federal budget are still at historically low levels, despite the war.
And while cutting fat out of the defense budget is a worthy goal, Obama would cut beyond fat to bone.
Caucus for Priorities aims to redirect 15% of the Pentagon's discretionary budget away from "obsolete Cold War weapons towards education, health care, job training, alternative energy development, world hunger and deficit-reduction."
On the chopping block: the F-22 Raptor, the V-22 Osprey, the Virginia-class sub, the DDG-1,000 destroyer and the Army's Future Combat System.
Cutting allegedly "unproven" missile defense systems is music to Kim Jong Il's and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's ears, let alone all the PLA generals wishing our destruction.
Yet Obama wants to kill a program that's yielding success after success, with both sea- and land-based systems. The military just this week intercepted a ballistic missile near Hawaii in a sea-based missile defense test.
Proposing "deep cuts in our nuclear arsenal" amounts to unilateral disarmament, and it's suicidal given China's and now Russia's aggressive military buildup.
Meanwhile, Iran and North Korea threaten nuclear madness, and Osama bin Laden dreams of unleashing a nuclear 9/11 on America.
In contrast, John McCain has vowed: "We must continue to deploy a safe and reliable nuclear deterrent, robust missile defenses and superior conventional forces that are capable of defending the United States and our allies."
We've been down this road before. President Clinton pursued a denuclearization program, including his 1995 pledge to sign a Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, and it led to him kicking open our nuclear labs to the Chinese, who proceeded to steal our warhead secrets and strengthen their own arsenal.
Like the Ben & Jerry's crowd that supports him, Obama believes "real" national security is "humanitarian foreign aid" — essentially using our troops as international meals-on-wheels in Africa.
We've been down that road before, too, in Somalia and elsewhere. Thanks, but we don't need a third Clinton, or a second Carter, term.

Democrats are brilliant.

One good donation deserves another.
Bill and Hillary Clinton on Friday contributed $2,300 apiece online to Barack Obama’s campaign after Obama and his wife, Michelle, wrote checks for the same amount to Hillary Clinton.
The Obamas’ donation - the maximum amount they could give - was meant to help retire Clinton’s campaign debt.
But since Obama already has called on his top fundraisers to join in that effort, the Clintons apparently felt free to give back.
The donation swapping came as Obama and Hillary Clinton attended their first joint campaign stop in the town of Unity, N.H.
They pledged to work together and called on voters to set aside the hurt feelings of a bruising primary.

IN MEMORY OF GEORGE CARLIN

By now many have heard that George Carlin died Sunday, June 22, 2008. George was 71 and was at a show as recently as last week in Nevada.

Many have no clue that George Carlin was in the U.S. Air Force, he was first a suit and tie comedian and he even appeared on 'The Tonight Show' when Jack Paar was the host.

What I believe George was best known for were the seven "Filthy Words" that eventually lead George Carlin to the Supreme Court.

And in memory of George I would like to list those seven words.


The Original 'Seven Filthy Words':

shit,

piss,

fuck,

cunt,

cocksucker,

motherfucker,

and tits.

And for those of you that would like to read the direct quote from the Supreme Court Decision of FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION v. PACIFICA FOUNDATION, 438 U.S. 726, 98 S.Ct. 3026 (1978), you can here

George Carlin is one person that I looked up to for the simple fact he held the U.S. Constitution dear to his heart; especially the First Amendment, and he refused to allow all American's rights to be dismissed.

George I hope you're enjoying your after-life in which you are watching the decline of civilization on a "heavenly CNN." (comment by George Carlin to Playboy in 2005) We all know you were looking forward to it, and could you keep a seat warm for us?

A Great American

Remember What This Election is All About

HOW TO BE A GOOD REPUBLICAN

To Be a Good Republican

1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is really only spread by a bunch of gay assholes intent on taking over the world.

2. You have to believe Barack Obama is somehow both a devout radical Muslim and a devout left-wing Christian- simultaneously, no less.

3. You have to be pro-death (penalty) and pro-life at the same time.

4. You have to believe that abortion is wrong no matter what, but then decide to stop giving a damn about the babies once they’re actually born.

5. You have to believe the Holocaust was God’s will, and that Hitler was just a hunter, chosen by the Lord to get the Jews out of Europe and into Israel.

6. You have to believe Rachael Ray is a Palestinian Jihad sympathizer with plans to take over the world via Dunkin Donuts.

7. You have to believe that Saddam Hussein did have weapons of mass destruction and that he was the cause of 9/11… and that oil doesn’t have a damn thing to do with this so-called War on Terror.

8. You have to believe that $5.00 for a gallon of gas is downright affordable, causing you to scratch your head and wonder what all these darn liberals are in such an uproar about.

9. You have to believe that homosexuality is not only completely unnatural, but is a choice made by lunatics that are clearly nothing but gluttons for punishment… despite scientific evidence that says otherwise.

10. You have to fight against affirmative action and then think it’s ok that minorities make less than whites because they have yet to earn their place in this society.

11. You have to believe that all that druggin’ and boozin’ actually left at least one decent brain cell in President Bush’s body.

12. You have to believe a president who lied about getting off using a cigar on one of his interns belongs in jail, but a president whose lies caused the very war we find ourselves in today deserves a medal of honor.

13. You have to believe that all things non-Christian should be outlawed.

14. You have to believe that the only people worthy of constitutional protection are white business men that are wealthy and belong to the NRA.

15. You have to believe a photo ID is necessary to vote, but not to purchase a gun.

16. You have to believe immigration needs to be stopped, and that the only people who deserve to be in this country are “Americans” though you yourself aren’t a true native- and never would have been here either, had someone in your family not been an immigrant once too.

17. You have to believe that scientifically, humans never evolved, and that people were just… BAM!!… placed here arbitrarily one beautiful afternoon by God.

18. You have to be of the opinion that the term “foreign policy” is really just code for barrell-assin’ into a country and killing a whole bunch of people… and then (maybe) asking questions later.

19. You have to believe in abstinence, and that sex is just wrong- and then justify it when yet another married Republican politician finds himself caught in the act with his pants around his ankles… with yet another prostitute.

20. You have to think the Rev. Wright is psycho, but worship all things Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and John Hagee.

I posted this is reply to a silly comment made 'To be a good democrat' Of course I'm being facetious, but do you see why intelligent human-beings don't agree to lumping everyone together? That it is downright ridiculous?

But I do hope you enjoyed this little post & a shout-out to C-Haze-77 for the list

John McCain the Master of Flip Flopping

McCain was consistent on most issues right up until he started running for president, at which point he conveniently abandoned practically every position he used to hold. The problem isn’t just the incessant flip-flops; it’s the shameless pandering and hollow convictions behind the incessant flip-flops.

The last night I was in your room Rizzo, Godot, myself and several other people were having a very civil discussion until that cretin Alfie walks in piddling all over the floor, and whining like a cat on heat. Alfie got his arse whipped soundly for his stupidity and left to go into IM with his mate OutbackJack. OutbackJack, claims to be a 'FULL' blood Aboriginal, for what that is worth, blood quantum means jack-shit in Australia when it comes to defining one's Aboriginality. Jack can't be too far in the outback to have a phone and internet server, and he used certain racial remarks that NO Aboriginal person would use in a room full of Gubba to describe himself. Jack went to water when I challenged him, and did the smart thing and shut up.

Slink there are plenty of witnesses to my last visit to your room, Arwen and others, who know that I was making a contribution to the chat and did not give your Admins any grief. So I am left to conclude that you have been pussy whipped by one of your female admins, AGAIN! Your Aussie Admins in particular don't like me in your room, because they can't get away with their bullshit and of course your Republican mates get hammered every time. It is of absolutely no concern to me to be banned from your room, but you really had me fooled there for a while that you were a person with some moral fibre. But when it comes down to it, you are spineless, just like all the other spineless Republican American pussies on Paltalk. May your days be numbered and you all crawl back under the rocks from whence you came.

CLUCK! CLUCK! VOOETTE IS A CHICKEN AND CAN'T DEBATE AUNTY KATE.

Coward: As defined by the Oxford Dictionary is a person who is easily intimidated or frightened.

Lord Merciful Vooette reaffirmed his position as a coward today when he threw out the challenge to Aunty Kate to come to his room or ClassicmFree's to "debate" him. I accepted the invitation to Classic's room which had four people in total. Poor deluded Vooette had a captive audience with air-headed SuzanneFl and LordHawHaw (ClassicmFree) cheering from the asylums of their confinement.

Frankly I am not interested in debating WHY Vooette did what he did to Mitsuk. What he did is fact and NOT debatable. However, Vooette frothed and foamed as he tried to justify what he did to Mitsuk, saying "she doesn't have a husband." Now we all know that Mistuk has often spoken of her 'husband'. It is true there has never been a wedding ceremony but under Canadian Law if a couple have co-habitated for a period longer than 2 years, and hold themselves out to be husband and wife, they are considered de-facto or Common Law spouses. Mitsuk and her husband have been together for 14 years. After Vooette left her high and dry she went back to her husband, that is a fact also. So try another tactic Vooette if you hope to wriggle out of your despicable act, that one doesn't wash. Better still try telling Mitsuk's husband that he doesn't count.

Then Vooette starts on my family, as if he knows anything about them. He claims my daughter's children don't come to see me because my daughter hates me. My daughter does not have any children. Wrong again Vooette. Dennis the menace said all that needs to be said about innocent bystanders being dragged into Vooette and Mitsuk's unsavory affair.

Vooette continued at the mic with his limited vocabulary boring me to death so I left and went to his room, and tossed out the challenge to Voo to meet me in there. I am not interested in Vooette's drama games I told him that the day I told him to shove his @ hat up his arse. However, I don't mind the opportunity to humiliate him in a real debate. That opportunity came today in another room when he took the mic and said:

"Presidents are not responsible for the economy, and the Iraq war has not impacted on the USA economy much at all."

Yes dear Rattlers you read that correctly. "Presidents are not responsible for the economy, and the Iraq war has not impacted on the USA economy much at all." Is this a political dolt or what?

I took the mic and enlightened Vooette that the ill conceived or badly advised policies and decisions of a President most certainly are responsible for the adverse effects on a country's economy and the decision to go into Iraq is a very good example of how this manifests. Lord Vooette left the room rather than respond. We were in a room that does not allow personal attacks, so Vooette was stuffed. Vooette is like flypaper, he picks up bits and pieces of information around the traps that he thinks makes sense, but does not have the depth to debate the topic when challenged, so he ran.

Taking up the challenge to go to his room to "debate" him, I did so and was warmly greeted as I entered the room. Vooette had to be dragged back from Classic's room, which is where he goes when he can't participate in the rare moments of real debate that go down in his room from time to time. He babbled and fluffed around in text in his usually in-coherent and disconnected manner, which I don't find difficulty ignoring. When it came my turn to take the mic, he jumped on me and continued to make a total clown of himself. He was laughed at and a number of people left in disgust. Then he showed his total cowardice by bouncing me.

YOU LOSE VOOETTE......Cluck!! Cluck!!! CHICKEN!!! You know I can whip your arse red raw any day of the week, you are a fake. I still chuckle about the day you said at the mic "I have a doctors degree." Vooette that would be a Phd dear and you don't have one. At best you may have obtained a high school diploma from some penitentiary, where you learned to parrot legal text from books in the State Penitentiary Library.

You are done like a dinner Vooette, and for those who like to eat chicken dinner is served, mind the feathers.

Lively Oak's Judgemental rant

Good Tuesday morning Rattler readers.

Well I was in Voo's room this moring and Ms Oak was on another one of her famous rants!!

She wanted to tell the room, especally yours trully, that a friend is some one who you know their name addres phone number and can tell them your deepest darkest secret.

I would like to know when I or anyone else had to have the same definition of what a friend is. What BS. What makes Ms Oak think anyone has to have her morals shoved down our throats.

She wanted to tell the room she did not do drugs or drink.

Well she takes a drink during passover. And she wants to give others shit about doing things. Im sorry if you have any alcoholic beverage passes your lips you drink. That is not saying you are a drunk or anything but it does kill the idea you dont drink.


One final Ms Oak thought...

She thinks if you are friends with a convict you are sick.


She came out and told me that today. I swear to you! I learned a long time ago that if you are going to have nothing to do with a group of people because of a specfic reason, you could miss out on a lot of good people. I am not going to discriminate a group of people because of one thing. That is the dumbest thing to do in my book.

As normal Ms Oak does not give a care about the feeling of the fellow chatters in the room. She made sure Voo knew all about the convicts in the room then laughted her head off. I think Ms Oak is in despreate need of Mental Health care. Her mood swings are getting out of control.

She is a no good for the room and needs to be banned. All she is there for is text sniping and petty bullshit vendetta since the grevence session last week when many came out against her. She now attacks any one she can. It is petty and wrong and once again Ms oak refuses to take responsiblity for her behavior acting like a six yearold. I say go right ahead. What goes around comes arround.


The feeling and thoughts in the post are soley mine and no others. If you want to bitch about them you know where to find me.

VIETNAM WAR HEROES LEST WE FORGET

Dear Rattlers,

When one has been around Paltalk as long as most of us have been there are few things that would shock or surprise us as we witness the ebb and tide of human flotsam and jetsam.

Some characters have made a real splash, then poof! They vanished into thin air after making total idiots of themselves. Do any of you recall MissAstridElectra, the colourful Aussie dominatrix transvestite prostitute? Miss Astrid, as she liked to be called, had the gravel voice of a heavy smoking octogenarian, and a profile pic of a 25 year old porn queen. Miss Astrid was always good for a spectacular show. She whipped the Paltalk community into a frenzy with her sharp tongue and titivating tales of clients in bondage, whimpering, and begging for the spanking to be harder. Miss Astrid's desire to be all things to all people came unstuck when she tried to kid people in Australia, especially your Aunty Kate, that she worked on the Federal election campaign with Maxine McKew, the very stylish, devout Catholic, who took the seat of Prime Minister John Howard. Sillier still was her assertion that she worked in Aboriginal commumities and referred to Aboriginal people as "boongs". Poor MissAstrid was so humiliated she just vanished. A pity, she did have some skill at being able to think on her feet, while walking and chewing gum at the same time. If you read this MissAstrid come back dear and save us from the truly mundane bullshitters like ALFIE_00.

ALFIE is one of our numerous Paltalk Vietnam War vets. In truth, Alfie has never been closer to anything to do with the military than playing the pokies at the local RSL. That is Returned Soldiers League for our American friends.

Aunty Kate met Aflie some years back and was interested to hear a bloke at the mic talking about his tour of duty in Vietnam. My ears pricked up when he said he was in the 6 RAR. I IM'd Alfie and after about 30 mins I knew this clown had never been anywhere near Vietnam, and certainly had no connection with the 6 RAR. He did not know the date of the Battle at Long Tan, which was one of the most fierce battles fought by Aussie troops in Vietnam and D Company of the 6 RAR took heavy casualties, one of my brothers among them. Alfie hates it that I know this about him, as his whole persona on Paltalk hinges on his fabricated military career.

Now one would think that time would have smartened Alfie up and he would have at least read up on the 6 RAR, familiarizing himself with where they were stationed and get a few clues about the Battle at Long Tan in particular. But not our Alfie, he brazenly tries to wing it on total bullshit. He had me in fits of laughter today as he talked about "being in that rubber plantation in the rain, and looking down the barrel of the gun of the enemy." Alfie's voice quivered as he recanted the horrific and terrifying experience, he said he would never want to live through again. When asked to tell Aunty Kate where this "rubber plantation" was Alfie drew a blank. I took pity on him after waiting a minute and told him LONG TAN, which is why this battle is called 'the Battle at Long Tan'. Another problem here is that Alfie typed in the room today that he served in Nam 1968-1969. The Battle at Long Tan was fought in August 1966.

Now being an Aussie I don't mind a bit of a 'yarn' and game of 'come in spinner'. We are devils for taking the piss and tugging on people's ropes. But as the sister of a real Vietnam war hero, who was in that rubber plantation in Long Tan in 1966, I take exception to Alfie trying to ride on the coattails of those heroic young men, in fact it disgusts me.

Alfie, I honor our soldiers even though I don't support the Wars in which their lives were sacrificed. I despise people like you who trivialize their sacrifice in a chat room to make your small life feel significant. LEST WE FORGET.

DRAMA PRO

VOOETTE BREAKS A FINGERNAIL AND HAS A MELTDOWN

VOOETTE GETS A WIG ADJUSTMENT FROM HIS MISTRESS.

Dear Rattlers, what a busy week we have had blogging, hasn't it been amusing watching people trying to defend the indefensible?

It is a cold Saturday afternoon and I am snug and warm inside my little valley hide-away, far from the madness of that place known as the United States of America. Through the week I was sent a recording of Vooette's meltdown in Mainstream Politics. For several days I just kept pushing it to the bottom of the pile of things to do as I knew the outpouring was predictable. Lots of bleeding pussies, cunt whores, and "You can't do drama with me you half white black bitch!"

Now seeing as Vooette is camera shy and doesn't post a profile or even send his photograph to a woman whose life he is about to wreck, we have NO idea whether he is BLACK or WHITE, half or FULL anything. What we do know is that his rants leave us with an image of what we call here in Australia " a raging Queen" Which is a homosexual person who likes to cross dress. His vocabulary which is not one of his strong points at best, is reduced to an unintelligible flurry of four letter expletives even a fool with a single digit IQ could manage.

Poor Vooette, has a 'yellow belt' in hurling vile abuse at women. Yet we hear him time and time again tell us how he 'respects women'. MMMM.....well the displayed behavior simply doesn't match the claim. I do recall the room pissing themselves laughing at Vooette's melt down, and others even more lame brained than he his thinking he was 'slapping' me around. I had the fool on mute, and frankly if I had heard this live I would have broken a rib laughing.

Vooette several people have told me that you just can't let this go, that you are furious that you have been outed for being the fake, and predator that you are. I had over 150 IM's supporting me, and many women thanked me for the warning. Sorry if I screwed with your victim list. Never mind there are plenty of dumb and desperate women out there who will find you irresistible. God knows why, they must like their men on the far side of dense.

Rattlers on my Pal list and I know there are many, if who want the Vooette meltdown audio files, they are classic pieces of lunacy that will have you rolling on the floor, just leave me an off line message and I will send them. I was thinking of sending the audio files to the USA Attorney General's Office to alert them that this clown is masquerading as a legal professional.

The reputation of the USA for breeding buffoons has advanced considerably ever since George Bush Jr. starting strutting the international stage, looking lost and bewildered as to where he was, and why he was sent there. Having Vooette running around screaming like a cast member of Le Cage Aux Folles, who just discovered someone took the glue for his stick-on fingernails, is petrol onto the flames of an already laughable international reputation the USA has throughly earned in the past 8 years.

For all those Paltalk clowns one meets around the place who believe that Aunty Kate is afraid of Vooette and won't go back to his room, for a fear of being slapped with his handbag, let me tell you it is not fear of the flying sequins that keeps me away, it is principles. For all of SLINK's misgivings and his confusion about whether it is OK to reward the bad behavior of the Republican party, I have not heard of any woman he has shaken down and hurt. He does have to balls not to red dot speakers, who disagree with him, and I don't find myself in agreement with him on much at all. However, I do respect his courage to slog it out and not cry like a big girl's blouse and abuse his admin hat in the way Vooette did this week.

On the audio files Vooette said that Aunty Kate only got to where she did in life hiding in a 'white' skin. There is no doubt that people in the USA and Australia get a better ride through life if they are not dark skinned. It is true I have never had a taxi cab go sailing past in the rain without stopping. Other members of my family suffered much more overt discrimination than I have done, that is also true. Vooette says I would not have achieved what I achieved if I hadn't pretended to be white. That I would not have been accepted. Vooette, I, and many other Aboriginal people who are much darker than I am, had enough talent that we achieved success in spite of the disadvantages that existed for ALL Aboriginal people regardless of skin colour.

Vooette, you are only 42 years old according to a conversation we had, so YOU did not experience the discrimination of your black brothers and sisters before the Civil Right Bill was signed in the early 1960's. All the HARD WON fights were over and your punk arse has had a free ride since by comparison. You said that you can't trace your heritage back to slavery, that your family were FREE immigrants to the USA. Which is why you probably made that outrageous statement the week that Rosa Parks died, which was "Rosa Parks didn't' do anything special" Remember that fight we had Vooette? I bet there are plenty of people in Paltalk who recall that. You didn't win that argument either and flew into one of your vile rages. I just laughed at you then, and I still do. Remember I said to you then Vooette you never had to live through a time when someone said to you, "get to the back of the bus Nigger!" And you didn't. You came along after it was possible for black Americans to go to University and ride at the front of the bus. As the son of free immigrants you never suffered the decades of discrimination of the black Americans who can trace their heritage back to the dark days of street lynchings and beyond. So you sit your punk arse down and don't try to act like a black American who shares that history of suffering, because you don't.

Vooette with all your immigrant privileges and opportunities that were not available to people like Buddy Romance and others, you did nothing with those opportunities, so you come into a chat room pretending to be an educated man. What pisses you off about a man like Obama, is that he too was born after the real fight for civil rights were won and he did something with the advantages. While you are a total loser who hangs around a chat program shaking down women who are desperate enough to fall for your bullshit.

Vooette, being a woman and to have achieved what I have done was quite a feat in my country, at the time, without the disadvantages of being an Aboriginal woman, which was never concealed. In fact my achievements were often held up as an example to other women Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal alike to show what was possible if one worked hard, and ignored the obstacles. So you see you silly little punk, you could never take me on, I would whip your dumb arse with one hand tied behind my back and anytime you want to humiliate yourself as you did in the meltdown last week, let me know, I'll make time just for the sport.

Lively Oak's latest unacceptable rant

I know I said I was going to be a political blogger for the rattler but something happened today that I can not let pass.

I am not sure how this got started. I was in and out of voo's room all day. I came back to hear lively oak screeching on the mic. (whats new about that) I sat and listened for a few minnutes tying to figure out what was going on. When I did find out i was horrified.


Lively Oak said that anyone who votes for McCain deserved to get cancer. She was trying to convince every one that the should not vote for him because he did not support women's health care and voted to help men who has erectile disfunction. While a noble cause, It was the WRONG way to go about it. She went on and on and finaly was red dotted.

When the dot was removed Ms Oak started in on it was not a Paltalk TOS. Well after re looking at the TOS I did find one she was breaking:

disrupting the normal operation of any chat room or otherwise acting in a manner that negatively impacts other users or is inconsistent with the rating of a room or attempting, soliciting or abetting another to do of any of the above.

Yes Lively Oak you were breaking TOS. I saw many comments in the room you needed to be dotted and many comments that were upset over what you were saying. That negatively impacts the room.



After that she went back on the original line of though as stated above. But that was not enough. Ms Oak then went after gizmo_210 for wanting to vote for McCain and said the following statement:

gizmo_210 I hope you get cancer if you vote for McCain.

Then Ms Oak wanted to tell the room that you are never cured from cancer. You are in remission.

I was floored when I found out. I was even more horrified when I found out that gizmo_210's mother had cancer. You do not ever tell some one with cancer in their family like that! My mother had cancer and for the first time I felt bad for gizmo_210.

You do not tell somone that has had cancer in thier family that you do not know what is going on. You do not wish that someone who had cancer in thier famliy that you wish that they get cancer.

Im not writing this for any other reason that I am pissed of at Lively Oak. It is sad that dispite the comments in the room she did not care to stop. She comes and cries in my pm like I can do anything. Im done with that. Lively Oak is on her own from now on.


Now that I got this out, I will be back to politics tomrrow. Thank you for reading!!

MCCAIN ENDORSES BUSH'S 3rd TERM

I know we have all heard that through McCain, Bush is going to have his third term. With me just not being one to go with the hype, I ignored those comments until...

I was watching the news, they were showing clips of Bush & McCain in the background, I noticed something that made me do a double-take.

What grabbed my attention was when Bush's approaching the mic at an McCain event and to my astonishment, Bush help up THREE fingers and the he continued to repeat this gesture and McCain gave Bush the THUMBS UP!!! I still wasn't convinced until.... as Bush drawing close to McCain to shake his hand, once again held up THREE fingers!!!

Imagine my shock, I couldn't believe my eyes and I knew right away this had to be known, I couldn't kept this to myself!!!

I knew the Rattlers would want to see this and since Rattlers always want proof, I found the video and placed it here for you all to see. (For those of you that want it short and sweet, Bush's three finger salute starts at 3:38 through 3:52 on the video)



I gave this some more thought and I came up with two options for Bush's three finger salute:

A. Bush was letting all know; including McCain, that he (Bush) was in fact by proxy was going to have a third term or...

B. Instead of putting up two fingers in a sign of peace, Bush was putting up three fingers in a sign of war

I leave it you; our dear Rattlers, to decide.

They don't call me Facetious Muse for nothing

To Satisfy The Firey Imaginations !!

It was a dark and lonely night online. The screensaver continued to pop up reminding me that Voo, Slinky, Classic, Daniel and JC were only a click away....

It was late, and I was tired, but never too tired to juggle my men. The rumors had been circulating that I was a busy woman, cybering every male I could capture with my alarming, yet sexy, red font. My keyboard came to life with wild abandon, typing out alluring words such as; "policies", "taxes", "Impeachment", and (the most bewitching word of all) "GOVERNMENT" !!!

Yes... determined to capture the text of these 4 bronze, font sex GODS online, I typed away, cooing to their alert typing fingers, trying to capture their imaginative words on my screen, slaying all other online women in my path!! I WOULD BE THE QUEEN!! I WOULD BE THE WOMAN OF THEIR PC's!! I WOULD OWN THEIR TEXT I TELL YOU!!

My fingers slid quickly across the bumpy keyboard... coaxing, bewitching, enchanting these online male presences until they could no longer resist my font !!!!

I watched with a creeping smile as my prey began to submit to my tremendous typing ability and sexy red font... One by one, these men became mine.. and MINE ALONE!!

Oh yes, they couldn't resist the temptation of a 49 year old, lovingly devoted housewife in a political chatroom talking about politics.!!..

They swore alligiance to me, and ME ALONE throughout their entire chat lives!!

IF any of these men even SEEMED to wander away from my online spell, they knew they would suffer the ultimate demise... the handy, dandy delete button!!!

The End... or is it? BWWWWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

(This message was approved by; Rick, my husband.. who thinks you are ALL crazier than a one-legged man in a foot race)

P.S. I DENOUNCE KATE AS A HUMAN BEING

WHY I AM VOTING FOR BARACK OBAMA.

Why I am voting or Barack Obama, by Lawrence Lessig.

Lawrence Lessig (born June 3, 1961) is an American academic. He is a professor of law at Stanford Law School and founder of its Center for Internet and Society. Lessig founded Creative Commons and is a board member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and of the Software Freedom Law Center. He is best known as a proponent of reduced legal restrictions on copyright, trademark and radio frequency spectrum, particularly in technology applications.

At the iCommons iSummit 07 Lessig announced that he will stop focusing his attention on copyright and related matters, and will work on political corruption instead.[1] This new work may be partially facilitated through his wiki — “Lessig Wiki” — which he has encouraged the public to use to document cases of corruption.[2] In February 2008, a Facebook group formed by law professor John Palfrey encouraged him to run for Congress from California's 12th congressional district, the seat vacated by the death of U.S. Representative Tom Lantos. Later that month, after forming an "exploratory project", the decision was made not to run for the vacant seat.[3]

Despite having decided to forgo running for congress himself, Lessig remained interested in attempting to change Congress to reduce corruption.[3] To this end, he worked with political consultant Joe Trippi to launch a web based project called "Change Congress."[4] In a press conference on March 20, 2008, Lessig explained that he hoped the Change Congress website would help provide technological tools voters could use to hold their representatives accountable and reduce the influence of money on politics.

Born in Rapid City, South Dakota, Lessig earned a B.A. in Economics and a B.S. in Management (Wharton School) from the University of Pennsylvania, an M.A. in philosophy from the University of Cambridge (Trinity) in England, and a Juris Doctor from Yale Law School.

Prior to joining Stanford he taught at the Harvard Law School, where he was the Berkman Professor of Law, affiliated with the Berkman Center for Internet & Society, and the University of Chicago Law School. Lessig is considered a liberal, but he clerked for two influential conservative judges: Richard Posner and Justice Antonin Scalia.

Lessig has emphasized in interviews that his philosophy experience at Cambridge radically changed his values and career path. Previously, he had held strong conservative or libertarian political views, desired a career in business, was a highly active Teenage Republican serving as the Youth Governor for Pennsylvania through the YMCA Youth & Government program[1] in 1978 and almost pursued a Republican political career.

What was intended to be a year abroad at Cambridge convinced him instead to stay another two years to complete an undergraduate degree in philosophy there and develop his changed political values. During this time, he also traveled in the Eastern Bloc, so acquiring a lifelong interest in Eastern European law and politics.

Lessig refuses to embrace the usual libertarianism. While Lessig remains skeptical of government intervention, he favors regulation by calling himself “a constitutionalist”. Because of his relative youth, and his intellectually innovative views of American legal theory, Lessig has often been cited as a potential candidate to fill vacant federal appellate judgeships in a future Democratic presidential administration.[citation needed]

In his blog, Lessig has come out in favor of Democratic primary candidate Barack Obama, citing the transformative nature of Obama's campaign as one of his chief reasons. A campaign to draft Lessig to run for the US Congress from the Bay Area began in February 2008.[6]

Lessig is married to human-rights lawyer Bettina Neuefeind and they have two sons, Willem Dakota Neuefeind Lessig, who was born on September 7, 2003,[14] and Teo Elias Neuefeind Lessig, who was born on January 15, 2007.[15]

In May 2005, it was revealed that Lessig had experienced sexual abuse by the director at the American Boychoir School which he had attended as an adolescent.[16] Lessig reached a settlement with the school in the past, under confidential terms. He revealed his experiences in the course of representing another student victim, John Hardwicke, in court.[17] In August 2006, he succeeded in persuading the New Jersey Supreme Court to radically restrict the scope of immunity that had protected nonprofits which failed to prevent sexual abuse from legal liability.[18]

Thanks Pk51, this is really good satire. Hugs.

MisQuoting Sen Obama's Books not right!!

Greetings All!! Tigger here your political blogger for the rattler!! Ill be posting everyonce in a while on the political happenings. Here we go with my first post!!!!!!!


As I hang out on paltalk one of the things I have noticed lately is that people have started to misquote passages from both of Sen Obama's books. I think it is a pathetic attempt to discredit him. The following information comes from Sen Obama's own campain website at http://factcheck.barackobama.com/



Smear Email ''Quoting'' Obama's Books
May 30, 2008
A recent email forward allegedly quotes passages from Senator Obama's books related to race and religion. The majority of these are alterations, deliberate manipulations, and in one case, an outright fabrication, of Obama's words.


EMAIL From Dreams of My Father: 'I found a solace in nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity against my mothers race.'
FULL QUOTE Nothing close to this quote appears in Dreams from My Father

EMAIL From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something about him that made me wary, a little too sure of himself, maybe. And white.'
FULL QUOTE "He offered to start me off at ten thousand dollars the first year, with a two-thousand-dollar travel allowance to buy a car; the salary would go up if things worked out. After he was gone, I took the long way home, along the East River promenade, and tried to figure out what to make of the man. He was smart, I decided. He seemed committed to his work. Still, there was something about him that made me wary. A little too sure of himself, maybe. And white--he'd said himself that that was a problem." [Page 142]


EMAIL From Dream s of My Father: 'I never emulate white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela.'
FULL QUOTE "All my life, I had carried a single image of my father, one that I had sometimes rebelled against but had never questioned, one that I had later tried to take as my own. The brilliant scholar, the generous friend, the upstanding leader--my father had been all those things. All those things and more, because except for that one brief visit in Hawaii, he had never been present to foil the image, because I hadn't seen what perhaps most men see at some point in their lives: their father's body shrinking, their father's best hopes dashed, their father's face lined with grief and regret.Yes, I'd seen weakness in other men--Gramps and his disappointments, Lolo and his compromise. But these men had become object lessons for me, men I might love but never emulate, white men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my father's image, the black man, son of Africa, that I'd packed all the attributes I sought in myself, the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois and Mandela. And if later I saw that the black men I knew--Frank or Ray or Will or Rafiq--fell short of such lofty standards; if I had learned to respect these men for the struggles they went through, recognizing them as my own--my father's voice had nevertheless remained untainted, inspiring, rebuking, granting or withholding approval. You do not work hard enough, Barry. You must help in your people's struggle. Wake up, black man!Now, as I sat in the glow of a single light bulb, rocking slightly on a hard-backed chair, that image had suddenly vanished. Replaced by...what? A bitter drunk? An abusive husband? A defeated, lonely bureaucrat? To think that all my life I had been wrestling with nothing more than a ghost!" [Page 220]


EMAIL From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.'
FULL QUOTE "Whenever I appear before immigrant audiences, I can count on some good-natured ribbing from my staff after my speech; according to them, my remarks always follow a three-part structure: "I am your friend," "[Fill in the home country] has been a cradle of civilization," and "You embody the American dream." They're right, my message is simple, for what I've come to understand is that my mere presence before these newly minted Americans serves notice that they matter, that they are voters critical to my success and full-fledged citizens deserving of respect.Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

DRAMA PRO

PREDATORS, WHETHER ONLINE OR IN REAL LIFE SHOULD NEVER BE PROTECTED.

Dear Rattlers,

As you would all know it takes courage to stand up and blow the whistle on anyone, especially someone you know is liked and admired by many people. However, when that person is shown to be a total bastard who uses his wiles to lure vulnerable women into situations where he can seriously hurt them, and I find out about it, I will speak up. Whether that predator is online or in my own family, I would not remain silent and protect him or her.

What I did not want to do was disclose the identity of Lord Voo's hapless and foolish victim, as I felt she may have suffered enough for her stupidity. However, when I saw the comments posted onto my blog post that could only have come from Mitsuk, which were largely convoluted ramblings from a demented woman, who crossed the line by mentioning my children, she left me with no choice. Nothing she said has any basis in fact. For instance my daughter has never been married at all, much less to a Muslim. But to bring my children into her sordid little affair at all caused me to take off my gloves and expose her.

When I came on line today I had 120 IM's as a result of the blog post, Vooronica's Closet. All of them supportive, and a number from people who don't usually agree with me on much, but did in this case. No decent person would shield and protect any kind of predator. To do so enables the person to offend time and time again.

In Mitsuk's rage that I was exposing 'her man' who still controls her, she lashed out with a barrage of largely distorted information mixed in with a few truths that had been shared with her when we were friends.

There is nothing in my online life of which I am ashamed, and none of the very nice men I have shared private moments with have left me with anything but the sweetest memories. They were straight with me, no lies, no bullshit and this was reciprocated. We remain friends today, and some of the despicable lies Mitsuk said about these men, whom she knows nothing about, shows what a vile person she really is.

I feel no shame whatsoever that I have had internet relationships. None of the people were predators from whom I left my partner, without as much as a name. Nor have I ever enticed anyone to leave their partner. In fact "are you married" is my first question, the answer determines where we go from there. If I had ever fallen foul to a predator like Lord Voo I would have been thoroughly humiliated at my own gullibility, but I would also have tried to warn other women. I would not sit in his chat room watching him flirt with other women and talk of other conquests. Perhaps Mitsuk is cruel enough to want to see other women suffer as she did, I don't have that in me.

With regard to Mistuk's last remark that I am a "slut" that is NO insult to a woman of nearly 59, and I hope I will still be called that when I am 79! But I am a very private slut, one man at a time. I don't sit on the internet while my husband is at work planning to leave him for a man whose name I don't know and then after he breaks my heart into little pieces, attack another woman who exposes him. Mitsuk get some therapy.

A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE

Think as you will about Keith Olberman, this was precious.


They don't call me Facetious Muse for nothing

VOORONICA'S CLOSET

Dear Rattlers have you ever wondered was causes Paltalk's phoney 'extraordinarie' Lord Merciless Voo to exhibit irrational and unbalanced behaviour of the kind we witnessed this week? When he vacillated from condemning Barack Obama one day for addressing AIPAC, to a position where Palestine wouldn't be suffering like they do if not for the 'terrorist group' Hamas.

"It is all Hamas's fault! GO ISREAL!" he screamed not 24 hours after wanting to have Obama hog tied for upsetting the Independents by kissing AIPAC's arse. I told Voo he was a political Pollyanna if he thinks the road to the White House does not go through AIPAC and not to think about giving up his day job to enter politics.

The answer to how all this flip-flopping manifests is simple really, this man is barking mad. Which would be all fine and dandy if he didn't prey on vulnerable women and leave at least 2 that I know almost suicidal.

For those Rattlers with an eye for detail you will have picked up me referring to Lord Voo, as Lord Merciless Voo, and I do this for a reason. Not only is Lord Merciless Voo not a Lawyer, which many of you have already worked out, he is a cruel cyber predator who preys on vulnerable lonely women.

Let me share a sad story with you which may help some other poor hapless and vulnerable woman to avoid his, shall we say allure, in the future.

Now this story is not second hand gossip, I was close to the person this happened to and spent hours of my time talking her back from the edge when her world seemed to fall apart.

As you know Rattlers there a many lonely men and women on these chat programs and even more monsters willing to take advantage of them for nothing more than an act of cruelty or a financial shake down.

The woman in questioned IM'd me one night to tell me she was "in love with Voo." Hold on a moment "Voo is a chat room nic" I said.

"Yes, he is being very guarded, but I know how he feels about me" she purred.

"Do you know his real name? Have you even seen a photograph, or spoken live on cam with Voo?" I asked, astounded that this seemingly intelligent woman was telling me she had fallen in love with a chat room persona who was being so guarded he didn't share any of his personal details with her.

A few days later....

"I am going to leave my husband, I have been unhappy for a long time," she said, trying her best to convince me that she was not doing this on the flimsy evidence before me.

Sad story cut to the chase....

The woman in question, found a new apartment, purchased new furniture, and of course splurged on some very pretty new underwear, which she said made Lord Voo giggle like a school boy. One night her partner of 14 years came home from work and found her with her bags in the hall ready to leave. She moved into her love nest and waited with pounding heart for Lord Voo to fly into her arms for the much anticipated passionate embrace. Lord Voo had tantalized his victim with sweet whisperings that he is a 'big man'. He had told his victim that she had to prove this was what she wanted by leaving her husband. Then, and only then, would he trust her with his personal information, like a name! She was still calling him Voo.

She waited and waited. He did not return her calls and went AWOL from Paltalk. She was beside herself. Heartbroken and thoroughly humiliated. But such is the power of cyber fantasy she "still loved him". Aunty Kate took a cyber whip to her dumb arse and tried to get her to wake up and smell the coffee. She finally made contact with Lord Voo and he was dismissive of her distress.

"I think you need to be on your own for a while to be sure this is what you want." He said.

Still no name, no photograph, no sweet words of reassurance.

After a week of crying her self to the point of exhaustion she saw the light. She realized what a great guy she had left sobbing in the hallway and it is a big cold world out there for a woman who has had a hunky man around to protect her for 14 years. Her husband took her back.

When I spoke to her a few weeks later she was still talking about Voo, "I still love him" she said, speculating on the what if's. She could not see that the only 'what if' here was, what if Lord Voo had been a TOTAL monster and let her husband know what she had done. He did have her phone number and had called her at home several times, after all the telephone is way more intimate. She can be grateful Lord Merciless Voo's game is only to hurt the women he targets. I felt very sorry for this woman but distanced myself from her on the belief that she is a total flake.

Lord Voo has been very nervous that I might blow the whistle on him for this, and another incident where his bullshit of being a Lawyer was blown wide when he needed to come clean on project we had been working on to set him up as a radio talk show host on Paltalk. He pulled the now infamous stunt of giving SillyFandango and BIGMAC_2008 Admin hats. He is as cunning as a shit house rat, he knew this would be a deal breaker for me as it brought his judgment into serious question. I handed in my Admin hat and we had a parting of the ways that ensured I would no longer have input into the project for the radio chat program. I has spent many hours working with Lord Voo on this and had offered to pay the $3000 to secure a Paltalk Green Room. But he had to come clean with his real name so his credentials as a Lawyer could be verified as I was being asked to help secure sponsors and involve people, whom like myself don't work with phoneys. His fear of being exposed saw him try several lame attempts to drive me from his room, and his rule of no BANS stuffed him somewhat.

However, all that changed this week when Lord Merciless Voo tried to flex his cyber muscle in an attempt to leave me bleeding in the hall as we all saw he had done with Vixee. I did try to warn Lord Voo in text that I am not Vixee, and he would need to come up to meet me in a fight because I was not going down into the gutter with him.

"You can't do drama with me! You don't run shit around here, get out!" he screamed.

He launched into his usual blustering tired old tirade. I mean there are only so many times one can call a person a "Mother fucking cock sucking, dripping pussy whore," before it becomes comedic.

Never being one to run to or from a fight, I raised my hand to speak, taking the fight right up too Lord Voo.

Isabellah was cautioning from the sidelines "Careful Kate" Isabellah was told to line up behind Lord Voo and I would give her a serve after I was done with him.

Lord Voo was shitting his pants about now.

"You stay on topic you whore!" He screamed. "You can't do drama with me you wrinkly old dripping pussy fake black woman"

"Voo did you learn to present arguments like that at law school?" I teased as I waited for the mic.

Rattlers as you know Lord Voo expects his Admins to take ALL kinds of vile abuse without losing control and using the RED DOT. Lord Voo was going to be sorely tested here and he knew it.
My turn came to take the mic and I got no more than half a sentence out and I was red dotted.

"Stay on topic bitch!" he screamed.

The speaker before me had been Paleoconservative, and before him that slimy amphibian from the Everglades, Moderate Conservative. The most vile pig of a man to ever draw a hog's breath.

Lord Voo lost badly and he is too stupid to see it. Poor sad man he is the laughing stock of every decent person on Paltalk.

For those who think this post is lies and bullshit and created to show Lord Voo in a bad light, I challenge Lord Voo to face off with me anywhere anytime and we'll see who is lying.

Lord Merciful Voo is a vile cyber predator, he uses people when it suits him to do so, and hurts women for sport. When he gets close to being exposed, he hits self-destruct and tries to crush anyone who can expose him. Sorry Lord Merciless Voo you picked a fight with the wrong person this time. From a young woman I have been fighting men who make you look like the cockroach you are and left them flat out on the floor. Vermin I squash under foot, and you are vermin Lord Merciless Voo.
