BBC News – Free diabetes and blood pressure drugs for Brazilians

Perspective and values.

The United States gives billions to oil companies in tax abatements and just reaffirmed our selling out status to billionaires by giving them more tax breaks.

Brazil just gave it’s citizens free diabetes and blood pressure meds, hoping to reduce the 34% of deaths in their nation from these illnesses.

“Land of the free”, huh?

Palin: Is still an idiot

Well, the nitwit finally said something about the Tucson shootings.

Honestly, she shouldn’t have bothered.

Six people are dead. Another fourteen wounded.

But she’s the victim.

Read/watch it here if you feel you must.

No apology. No hint of even remotely tangential responsibility for throwing targets on people’s backs. No sign she’ll stop using threats of violence as a political tactic.

No class.

And in a nice bit of anti-Semitism, she used the term “blood libel” to describe how she thinks liberals are blaming her words and images for creating this culture of hate, fear, and death that, well, she has added to.

quick search shows that:

Blood libel (also blood accusation) refers to a false accusation or claim that religious minorities, almost always Jews, murder children to use their blood in certain aspects of their religious rituals and holidays. Historically, these claims have-alongside those of well poisoning and host desecration-been a major theme in European persecution of Jews.

Rep. Gabrielle Giffords is, of course, Jewish.

Nice touch there Palin!

Obama London: Inexplicable Edits on Sarah Palin’s Facebook Page

Sarah Palin and her gang of lackeys have been busy this weekend deleting anything she’s ever said that might be construed to aiding and abetting someone in the commission of a violent gun terror incident.

They have also been adamant in deleting anything negative someone says on their Facebook page and so on. Which, you know, is their right. I unfriend nitwits myself so no one is above this kind of thing on a personal site.

This has been tracked – somewhat – here. Read it, it’s good stuff.

In the article the author also points out what is NOT being deleted by Palin and her goons.

This isn’t Palin’s words, but she allows it to remain on her page.

Is *she* palling around with terrorists now? Or at least scum who approve the killing of 9 year old kids whose politics they don’t agree with?

In a word, YES.

Manufacturing false equivalencies in the wake of the Giffords assassination attempt

Once more, conservatives are screeching that everyone does what they do.

No, it really isn’t like that.

Olbermann can be a blow hard, but he’s no O’Reilly. And there is no radio or TV alternative to Beckkk or Lush Rimjob. There just isn’t.

Pointing out Palin’s hitlist is like something posted on Daily Kos is also a distraction. And a lie.

I’ll let Kos himself explain.

If you are going to stack a bunch of logs, pour gas on them, and set matches next to the pyre, don’t be surprised when someone lights it. And don’t be surprised when someone says you set the conditions for the blaze.
