It's a Chicken eat Chicken World

You see, if a moose was taught to eat moose, then it would be a profitable business cycle. If people were taught to eat people, same thing, it would be an efficient, self-perpetuating process. Well, from sources we find out that some chicken farmers feed their chickens by-products of processed chicken, yes, chickens have been taught to eat chicken.

What does that have to do with our site review today? We want to find out why things are not as apparent as they seem to be. So, we look at some sites on the Internet that make sense. We remember the Republican National Convention of 2008, and its presentation of lots of commercials for "lifestyles" ... American style. Eh?

If you try to tell it like it is, and you are accurate in your descriptions, you are called a "whack job." [Whack job (colloquial, pejorative) A crazy, possibly dangerous, person; basket case, loony, nutjob, nutter, screwball, wacko, wingnut. wiktionary]

Everything you wanted to know about mooseburgers: "As psychologists have shown, we respond intuitively and emotionally to stories while numbers and logic leave us cold. This is why stories can sway us like nothing else and why, for someone selling toothpaste or politicians, stories are an essential marketing tool.

"Unfortunately, stories have limitations and the growing importance of candidates' narratives in political marketing leads to problems that were on full display in both conventions. For one thing, the stories tend to be ersatz simply because real life stories are far too complicated and messy to be packaged and advertised."

" ... And so it goes. I watched every night of the Republican convention and I still don't know what John McCain would do about climate change, the deficit, immigration or a dozen other burning issues but I did find out how he and Cindy met and fell in love and I learned that Sarah Palin's dad woke her at 3 a.m. to go hunting.

Oh, and I discovered that Democrats hate ordinary Americans. Good to know. (THE OTTAWA CITIZEN. SEPTEMBER 6, 2008. LINK) ... "

'via Blog this'

Another blogger, Jack Pribek, sees the correlation of  "Bernays" to ersatz, when "marketing" is mentioned. Meanwhile this year from Pribek dot net we read:

" ... Bernays was hired by ALCOA (owned by the Mellon family), in the early ’40s, to do some P.R. around the same time that ALCOA, who was the largest producer of fluoride (basically a by-product of fertilizer manufacturing), was scheming to unload fluoride via the nation’s drinking water supply. Bernays went on to design a P.R. campaign for fluoride based on dental health.

" ... So, if you are a person who assumes that those who speak out about water fluoridation are whack jobs, conspiracy theorists, John Birchers and such because, you believe that fluoride is merely used to prevent cavities, you should be interested to know that the man that wrote that script for you, said this in his own words… (Pribek, Jack. July 12, 2013. LINK) ..."

" ... THE conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.
" ... We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society.
" ...Our invisible governors are, in many cases, unaware of the identity of their fellow members in the inner cabinet.
" ... They govern us by their qualities of natural leadership, their ability to supply needed ideas and by their key position in the social structure. Whatever attitude one chooses to take toward this condition, it remains a fact that in almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons—a trifling fraction of our hundred and twenty million—who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind, who harness old social forces and contrive new ways to bind and guide the world. ... "

That is the opening salvo from Edward Bernays’ 1928 book “Propaganda” (Pribek, ibid.) ... "

___________________

Ersatz is with us all in our long-suffering will to do what's right. We cannot drift far from skeptical on almost any "publicized" story, or "professional" research.

It's like this: if you have an automobile manufacturing company, and your first attempts are fire bombs in car crashes, what do you do? You immediately start a "our car is safer than the others" campaign. It is the least expensive solution to the problem.

If you are a dentist, you advertise that your procedures are painless. If you are a nuclear power plant, you propagandize that your plant is engineered and built with redundancy that "insures" no radioactive leaks.

If you are a government gone mad, you rely heavily on "Bernaysian" public relations tactics to keep the public off your back.

CONCLUSION
Be it ever so humble, every living thing has the right to a life. Today, life for humans is plagued with a general feeling of discomfort or illness, or uneasiness, for which an exact cause is difficult to identify.

Our real life stories are co-opted by slugs of deception, who slime their way into our living rooms. It is deemed by the elite just too difficult to tell the real story, with all its intricacies. For elites, it is even more rift to actually spend time and money to fix what is broken.

"The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation," said Thoreau, and it is not by common man's own hand he lives this way. Evidence is everywhere that mankind has been hoodwinked for all of its 12,000 years of written history. People are being taught to eat people.

MooPig's Black History Month :: "President Obama catches 'Linsanity'"

We wish he would catch Bucolic Buffalo, ... but

" ... Obama is an avid hoops fan, so it's no surprise he has watched Lin, the Knicks point guard who has gone from unknown to major NBA star in the past two weeks. ... " (Perry Bacon Jr. 1:49 PM on 02/15/2012)

But that's not all ....

Sarah has come down with a case of "Linsanity," admitting that she is a fan and his is a "great American story." (February 17, 2012 - Photo by FameFlynet Pictures)

Getting annoyed with the word ‘Lin’ prefacing every word in the English language? You’re not alone. The Daily Show’s Larry Wilmore took on the hysteria that’s driving him linsane.

MooPig's Rumor Mill has come up with three issues that have brought our former babelicious clothes horse to national attention... during this stumbluous period of USA economic ruin. Her activities seem as scattered as the shot out of her shotgun.

1. Is Sarah "confused and coy" about her motives?
2. Does Sarah "... specialize in checkbook journalism--that is, she only gives interviews to a network that pays her in excess of $1 million a year...?"
3. Is it true Sarah is: " ... using the flag of the United States for her own financial purposes. She drapes herself in the stars and stripes and makes millions of dollars in the process. This has got nothing to do with the presidency and everything to do with filling her pockets."

That's all for now on the serious side of today's blog post! And by raising her profile, she raises her income. Eh! And she is promoting healthy girls in and out of their clothes -- we like it.
(huffpost. First Posted: 06/ 1/11. LINK. Martin Bashir: Sarah Palin Might Be Breaking Federal Law On Bus Tour. VIDEO)

What we all really want to know is ... will Joseph Smith return from spiritual limbo land, and give Sarah new tablets that anoint Sarah Palin as Queen Wizardesse for the next hundred years. This being the final straw to depose Mitt Romney and other Utah borne presidential hopefuls. We anticipate Joseph's return on July 4th, 2011.

According to a new Gallup poll, Sarah Palin is the first choice for president among Republican voters who say the most important issues facing the nation are social issues and moral values. She wins a plurality of 23 percent among such voters; Mitt Romney is second, at 18 percent. (SOURCE)

Sarah Palin's Half-sister in South Pacific: Betty

MooPig has this late breaking story surfacing from the South Pacific. Sarah Palin's half-sister has been found and let us photograph her just before she jumped into the ocean to do some shark herding before sundown.

Her name is Betty Heath.

MooPig Associate Journalist Rathbone Fedder has this entry in his blog that describes his adventure:
"Rough seas delayed our passage down to Colon, Panama. Colon’s reputation for crime and muggings is infamous, driven by high unemployment, poverty and the easy pickings in a port city. Though no longer as dire as it used to be, we were barred from walking outside the port area. So, what to do? There was the option of taxiing to the Zona Libre, the world’s second largest tax free ‘island’ where the multinationals and banks of the world have a presence inside 4 metre high security walls. (By the looks of it, very little of that wealth ever reaches the city outside those walls.)"

"We could’ve stayed confined in the port shopping centre, or hook up a taxi tour and head out for the afternoon. Phil, Gabi, Julia and I were the only ones game. Our drive out to Portobello village an hour away, was well worth it."

"That is where I caught wind of a half-sister of the Idaho born Sarah Heath Palin Alaskan Governor. A Panamanian man who used to be part of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, said "Betty Heath; You will be able to identify her from the tattoo on her midriff that says 'Welcome to Panama City, Enjoy Your Visit;' the best shark herder he ever knew."

In Her Future Interview with Cigar Aficionado Magazine

Set yourself in the future; you are looking back at an era. Your grandchildren are asking about Sarah Palin. You explain:

The mystery is solved.
Her face has become a viral sensation and a Photo-shopper's favorite mash-up figure in the first twenty years of the new century: The woman whose Harpo Marx-like innocence, and handheld communication device ... yes, she has raised eyebrows of those among us examining some of your immortal Bilderberg Hall of Famers' moments in history ... or next to the Ryder Cup in a photo-shopped union of Sarah and Tiger  whose ball is heading directly at the photographer ... or not.

For her wide eyes, and constant smile, full blend stogie ambiance, and full head of hair blowing in the wind next to Old Glory, the spectator gone super star, will be dubbed "Cigar Lady."

Her face was inserted into the background ... or more often center stage ... of other iconic photos, eventually migrating onto other areas of the world stage - cavorting with singers, world leaders, on a Civil War battlefield with Abraham Lincoln, and with the cartoon Clutch Cargo and his pals Spinner and Paddlefoot. There's a Cigar Lady fan in all of us.

MooPig Movie Reviews :: "Public Enemy 2009"

Public Enemies - 2009
Johnny Depp takes on the role of Dillinger in the newest film about Public Enemy Number One. Directed by Michael Mann and also staring Christian Bale as Melvin Purvis. The film follows the charismatic Dillinger through his bank robbing career.

Photos recently appeared on the Internet from Colliard.com of Johnny Depp as John Dillinger in Michael Mann’s Public Enemy. The hair, ruby sunglasses, shirt, tie and pants easily place the actor in the depression era.
I looked at a couple of photos of the real Dillinger, and he certainly isn’t as handsome as Depp.
Michael Mann’s Public Enemy will prove out anyhow. He’s a true filmmaker. (2008; SOURCE)

"Answer the Question, or they'll put you down a Black Hole in Cook County ..."
Review by Pat "Ratta Tat" Darnellingerer, and Hub Paiges

Last Week; Bryan, TX; Out on DVD -- Romanticized warfare until half-way to the ending, Public Enemy 2009 is all that. Dillinger dies, as he is historically supposed to have --  in the end, the sole survivor of his gang, as all his loyal gangsters are deceased. They were all cut down by Special agent Purvis -- Christian Bale: "We will fight crime ... with science..." [paraphrased from movie dialogues] That's not a tough posit to accept, as we are conditioned already with lippy-masterwork Batman by C Bale.

Dillinger? He is a 1920's rock star who cuts the flab of our national money reserves like a butcher. He makes elaborate ploys for robbing institutions relieving them of large sums of **1926-1931 - FIXED Gold standard, 5 years-Backed Certified US Buck$... for his own discretionary spending.

And the Dillinger Gang use their tommy guns like cleavers, thanks to modern lab enhancing cinema tech. Fire leaps out of Depp's Dillinger's guns like flame-throwers; very impressive. In our face cinematography. ... But woe, he is ratted out by his most trusted woman friend, a lady in red... but in our 2009 Depp's version -- a new specification is presented as the "lady in orange dress under a white sweater..." [Paraphrased]

Special Agent Purvis puts the squeeze on Dillinger's illegally immigrated, lady in red-orange, friend; threatens her deportation, and, well, it spells the end for the boy rebel from Indiana. Dillinger gets fingered.

Simultaneous to the underpinning Purvis chase, the USA National Crime Fighting Budget is challenged by another ambitious young man, J Edgar Hoover. Public Enemy 2009 presents the idea that "JEH" appoints sharpshooter Purvis as Crime Syndicate Boss, while he goes about setting up his G-Men Nursery. Purvis greases each Dillinger Gangster one by one. Hang in there -- this review is almost over.

It turns out, that history was written to include big budget Federal Government Crime Fighting because it was impossible to bring criminals to justice in states where they were wanted. Dillinger Gangsters enjoyed conditions like Illinois being safe haven for them, while they had crime sprees in other states -- like Ohio. Criminals crossing state lines was okay, No extradition in those days. Finally Hoover gets his way, extradition, and criminals start standing trials in states where they did their master works.

But you will have to watch the entire first half of over-the-top bullet delivered billets of lodging, and car fantasy escapades, [or you may cat nap through them like I did] -- No less, boys with guns, or, rather, -- equivalent to the fire power of RAMBO all five eponymous series [yes five] -- to get to the truer nature of John Depp's "Dillinger." J Depp provides us transfiguration on the mount, he transfigures through to the movie's ending; as a character otherworldly, in his finial role as emotionless, walking-dead, gang-less, gangster leader.

Johnny Depp's Dillinger walks among the Pharisee Populace of the Chicago Bureau of Investigation as if a savior with a last death wish. That part, near the end, you should stick around to see ...

Dillinger's last words are reported to have been "Bye Bye Blackbird

Born in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1903, Dillinger was raised by his older sister after his mother died in 1907. Rebellious against his strict father from an early age, Dillinger quit school to take a job. His father moved the family to the country in an effort to keep a lid on his son's behavior, but it had little effect. After getting into trouble with the local law for stealing a car, Dillinger joined the Navy, but soon deserted and was given a dishonorable discharge.

--PHOTO: Left ... the r'ill dilli'nger....

It turns out after Navy faux-pas "... Attempted to rob a grocery store, but ... quickly caught. Following his father's advice, Dillinger confessed and was given two consecutive sentences for assault and battery with intent to rob and conspiracy to commit a felony. His received 2 to 14 years and 10 to 20 years in the Indiana State Prison.

While in prison, Dillinger learned the ins and outs of bank robbery from the pros. After his own release, he planned and arranged the break out of his friends, who soon became known as the first Dillinger gang. The second Dillinger gang was formed after he escaped from another stint in jail. Baby Face Nelson was one of it’s better known members.

Plot Summary for "The Public Enemy (1931)" Tom Powers and Matt Doyle are best friends and fellow gangsters, their lives frowned upon by Tom's straight laced brother, Mike, and Matt's straight laced sister, Molly. From their teen-aged years into young adulthood, Tom and Matt have an increasingly lucrative life, bootlegging during the Prohibition era. But Tom in particular becomes more and more brazen in what he is willing to do, and becomes more obstinate and violent against those who either disagree with him or cross him. When one of their colleagues dies in a freak accident, a rival bootlegging faction senses weakness among Tom and Matt's gang, which is led by Paddy Ryan. A gang war ensues, resulting in Paddy suggesting that Tom and Matt lay low. But because of Tom's basic nature, he decides instead to take matters into his own hands. Written by Huggo (Unknown Source)

Tom's bad way of life is constantly set up against his brother Mike's, who has a job during the day and goes to night school. Mike will enroll in the Marines to fight in WWI. He will come back and will constantly try to put Tom back on the right path. Written by Natacha Godaillier (Unknown Source)

Friends Tom and Matt go from small time to big time crime during prohibition. Tom tires of his mistress Kitty ... he pushes a grapefruit into her face ... and falls for Gwen who resists his advances except when it look as though he might dump her. When Matt is killed, Tom goes after the murderers. Written by Ed Stephan stephan@cc.wwu.edu

Great hub...great work. Back in the 1960s we had a neighbor who claimed that they killed her son and not John Dillinger. She told us that her son had been arrested twice because he looked so much like Dillinger. He had also gotten in some trouble by claiming he was Dillinger to the ladies. He went to Chicago for business. Her son dissapeared at the same time Dillinger was killed. She never heard from him again. [Tom Cornett says: SOURCE] http://hubpages.com/profile/Tom+Cornett

What's Been Going On with Gov Sarah Palin??

Laying Down Suppression Fire
by Pat Darnell and the un-Herd

MooPig's Rumor Mill has come up with three issues that have brought our former babelicious clothes horse to national attention... during this stumbluous period of USA economic ruin. Her activities seem as scattered as the shot out of her shotgun.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's first two years in office have been called a time of milk and honey, when the resource-rich state was flush with wealth from record oil prices. Sarah Palin In Trouble As Oil Prices Fall: AP Huffpost - RACHEL D'ORO | February 17, 2009

The second half of her term isn't looking so rosy as Palin faces her first major financial challenge as Governor.

The rapid decline of oil prices has left the state in a looming budget crisis and a late-entrant in the national recession. And that could have political repercussions for the former Republican vice presidential hopeful, who has signaled an interest in a 2012 presidential run but must stay visible in the Lower 48 to be successful.

[SOURCE]

The state currently has $6.6 billion in its constitutional budget reserve fund that it could tap into. A few billion dollars more also is available from other pockets, said Juneau economist Gregg Erickson, a longtime Alaska budget watcher.

Given Alaska's robust reserves, the state is well-prepared to weather the next two years, Erickson said. As to how long reserves will last after that, there are too many factors involved to say for sure.

Right to Life Palin Style Stimulus
The Huffington Post | Rachel Weiner | April 12, 2009
Palin herself will be leaving Alaska this week to attend the Vanderburgh County Right to Life dinner in Evansville, Ind. on Thursday, as well as an event for special-needs children.

"There are some concerns (in the Capitol) about the focus of our chief executive because she's taken a speaking engagement in Indiana for a 36-hour period with only 72 hours left in the legislative session," Ramras said.

Palin, who has barely left Alaska during the legislative session, is clearly irritated.

Sarah Palin: Levi/Bristol Would Shack Up "Over My Dead Body"

MooPig Cinema Analysts Ask: Ashley Judd to play "Sarah Palin" in Movie -- Sneak Peek?

Some Parody just plain Writes Itself... Truth once again -- Stranger than Fiction
by Pat Darnell
MooPig introduces its consultant role in helping casting brokers to find the right actress for the right role, especially in bio films of living people.

Political activities of recent times might have brought many scripts, or none, to film makers. Casting such scripts might have requirements that a sincere effort in matching biographies and all the way to blood types in actors might be considered... That is why we offer this discussion as follows. Idol worship and budget not considered, could Ashley Judd play Sarah Palin in a movie...? you decide. Will the Shoes come Off?

We find that casting Ashley Judd as Sarah Palin in a movie would be akin to casting John Belushi [God rest his soul] as Michael Phelps.

Consider the recent commercial application slanting: In 2009, Ashley Judd appeared in a one minute video advertisement for the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund, in which Judd condemned Alaska governor Sarah Palin for supporting aerial wolf hunting. In making the advertisement, Judd failed to mention that the reason these wolves are killed is to protect the caribou population in Alaska. In response, Sarah Palin deemed the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund an "extreme fringe group".[WKI].

Recently Ash took on Sarah. I think besides being a sort of sibling rivalry, this represents those who try to tag themselves onto what is perceived as originality. Ash is trying to put her team in the wave of fanfare that Sarah has enjoyed.

Actress Ashley Judd stars in a new campaign targeted at Sarah Palin's alleged "anti-conservation agenda" and her promotion of the killing of wolves and bears in Alaska.

Defenders Action Fund launched the campaign today with a new Website, EyeonPalin.org. In a video, Judd condemns Palin for promoting the aerial killing of wolves and even accuses her of suggesting $150 bounties for the severed forelegs of killed wolves.

"Now back in Alaska, Palin is again casting aside science and championing the slaughter of wildlife," Judds recites somberly.

Personally, I see no connection. But:

Sarah Palin struck back at Ashley Judd's featured role in an ad campaign accusing the Alaska governor of supporting the aerial slaughter of wolves and bears.

Palin released a statement calling the ad "reprehensible and hypocritical."

"The ad campaign by this extreme fringe group, as Alaskans have witnessed over the last several years, distorts the facts about Alaska's wildlife management programs. These audacious fundraising attempts misrepresent what goes on in Alaska, and I encourage people to learn the facts about Alaska's positive record of managing wildlife for abundance.

"Shame on the Defenders of Wildlife for twisting the truth in an effort to raise funds from innocent and hard-pressed Americans struggling with these rough economic times," wrote Palin, reports Politico.

Six-hundred-and-seven wolves had been killed in the prior four years. State biologists wanted 382 to 664 wolves killed by the end of the predator-control season in April 2007. Wildlife activists sued the state...
FEUD ‘07	A long-running feud between Judd and Indy race car driver Milka Duno took place throughout the 2007 Indy Racing League season. After the final race of the 2007 season, the actress stated to the assembled news media that, "I know this is not very sportsmanlike, but they've got to get the 23 car (Duno) off the track. It's very dangerous. I'm tired of holding my tongue. She shouldn't be out there. When a car is 10 miles (an hour) off the pace, it's not appropriate to be racing. People's lives are at stake."	Feuds that come along with being a leader in the government of a state are too numerous to list here.... However almost every one who has tried to sue Palin and her office has lost..
FEUD ‘09	...in 2009, Ashley Judd appeared in a one minute video advertisement for the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund, in which Judd condemned Alaska governor Sarah Palin for supporting aerial wolf hunting.	In 2007, Palin approved a $400,000 "information campaign" promoting the predator control program. Opponents of the program, including Defenders of Wildlife called this a "propaganda campaign," due to the fact that a referendum on the program was scheduled for the following summer, and two previous referendums (one in 1996 and another in 2000) had seen a majority of Alaskans voting against aerial predator control. The 2008 referendum to ban aerial predator control went on to fail. VP -- On August 29, 2008, in Dayton, Ohio, Republican presidential candidate John McCain announced that he had chosen Palin as his running mate.[136] According to Jill Hazelbaker, a spokeswoman for John McCain, he first met Palin at the National Governors Association meeting in Washington in February 2008 and came away "extraordinarily impressed."
FAMILY	In June 2007, Goody's Family Clothing [now bankrupt] announced that they were going to be releasing three fashion clothing lines with Judd in the Fall to be called - "AJ", "Love Ashley" and "Ashley Judd." Regarding the clothing line, Judd said, "I'm thrilled to be involved in a clothing line that provides simple, lovely solutions for women's wardrobes. I've always loved items that you can throw on easily and know that you'll feel and look good. This line does just that, while keeping with the best of current styles and trends."	Palin dismissed Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan on July 11, 2008,Wooten was involved in a child custody battle with Palin’s sisterWooten had been disciplined for the others—an illegal moose killing and the tasering of an 11-year-old. Other wise:

KABOBfest says "Thanks" to Gov Sarah Palin

And MooPig would like to say "Thank you" to Muslims for not eating either beef or pork.

Sunday, October 26, 2008 | Thank you Sarah Palin
By QuiQui [SOURCE]
Since we're on the topic of having to thank even the vile for coming to the defense of the Muslim faith...
One of the two VP candidates just said that religious discrimination is both inappropriate and unacceptable and that their party welcomes all Muslims. That candidate wasn't Joe Biden. And that party wasn't the Democrats.

Sarah Palin Welcomes Muslims To Republican Party
[SOURCE] By Davin Hutchins on Oct 23, 2008


Amid a growing distrust among her conservative Christian supporters of anything Islamic, Sarah Palin goes on record stating emphatically that Republicans and the McCain-Palin ticket welcome all Muslims, adding "it is not acceptable in my book" to discriminate on the basis of religion. Her message of tolerance comes amid a growing tide of Islamophobia at McCain-Palin presidential rallies in Virginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio. How Christian fundamentalists interpret her remarks in the last days of the campaign is anyone's guess.
