Charlie Sheen – Star Whore

We’re adding a second inductee in as many days to the Star Whores Hall of Shame; actor Charlie Sheen.

Sheen, who comes by his delusional fear of government honestly (son of Martin Sheen, activist, moonbat), says he believes that someone in the US Government orchestrated the 9/11 attacks, to wit: “it looked like a controlled demolition when the towers came down.” Sheen goes on to imply that 19 terrorists were amateurs with box cutters and unlikely to take out 3 out of 4 objectives without inside help.

Pardon my skepticism, but what a crock of unmitigated feces . . .

Wikipedia has this additional information about Sheen:

Charlie Sheen

September 11th

Sheen declared on the March 20, 2006 broadcast of the Alex Jones radio show that he doesn’t believe the official government story about September 11th.

This event was covered by CNN in what Alex described as a “Balanced Piece”. [The] New York Post and the Boston Herald also covered this, in what Alex described as a [sic] “hit pieces that seek to smear Sheen as an unstable crackpot”.

The same day, March 20th, Google censored the information by not adding indexing to articles reporting on the issue, the search string “Actor Charlie Sheen Questions Official 9/11 Story” returning no hits three days after the story broke out for the first time. The index was added after a three days, while Alex Jones was talking about the Google issue on his radio show. On the 24th, Google gave 17,300 hits on that same search string.

Private life

Sheen has been dogged by trouble, including drugs and a shooting, and he has frequently had problems with the police. Though he was involved with a number of Hollywood personalities, his long-term relationship with adult actress Ginger Lynn in the late 1990s garnered the most media attention. In 1993, his name was found among Hollywood Madam Heidi Fleiss‘ list of her most frequent customers, and it was revealed that Sheen hired top-class prostitutes and spent huge amounts on escort agencies. During this time, he also had a serious cocaine addiction.

Sheen was married to Donna Peele from September 3, 1995 to November 19, 1996. He then married another actress, Denise Richards, on June 15, 2002. They had two daughters, Sam J. Estevez (born March 9, 2004), and Lola Rose Estevez (born June 1, 2005). In March 2005, Richards filed for divorce, but the couple were able to reconcile briefly afterwards. In January 2006, Richards continued with the divorce.

That bit about Google supressing the story is interesting and further implicates the software giant as a hard-left media outlet of the new kind. But I digress . . .

Summarizing, Sheen has the “feeling” that there was a conspiracy to inflict the 9/11 attacks on the US from within. When we listened to the tape of the Alex Jones interview, it was clearly the ravings of a bipolar, psychotic, cocaine-tooting, narcissistic sex maniac and not any sort of clear, rational deduction or reasoning. The man is a degenerate, and a second-generation one no less. Sheen seems to be an over-privileged loose cannon, either with serious psychological problems, or bent on spreading the sort of political manure for which the left is so infamous.

Nonetheless, we welcome Charlie Sheen to the “hocus-pocus psychosis” exhibit of the Star Whores Hall of Shame.

Mexican Trucks to Deliver Pollution

Mexican truck traffic will be bringing pollution (and who knows what else?) and WE have to impose more strident emission controls on ourselves? Shouldn’t Mexican POS trucks be required to meet the standards in this country?

This is just plainly WRONG!

From the Daily Breeze/Copley News:

Ruling on Mexican trucks will bring the state a load of smog

California air-quality regulators say trucks from south of the border tend to pollute more. The border will open to them soon under NAFTA guidelines.

SACRAMENTO — An anticipated surge in long-haul truck traffic from Mexico will deliver more than loads of produce, electronics and clothing to Southern California.

It will also bring a lot of smog.

California’s air-quality regulators say the imminent opening of the state’s freeways and ports to older, diesel-fueled Mexican trucks could produce a dramatic increase in toxic pollutants, a new source of smog equal to another 2.2 million cars on the road.

“This would have a serious impact on the region’s health and particularly on the health of those community members living adjacent to any heavily traveled routes,” warns a just-released state Air Resources Board report.

“Additionally, the supplemental emissions generated by the increased truck traffic could impede California’s progress toward attaining the federal air quality standards, which could potentially jeopardize billions of dollars in federal transportation funding,” the report says.

As a result, state and Los Angeles officials say they may have to impose more stringent local standards to offset the added pollution from Mexican trucks. [emphasis added]

Still a Meathead – Part IV

While trying to “work” the system in an attempt to hijack your kids, the official state Meathead gets caught. Rob Reiner faces ethics charges for misusing funds intended for promotional TV ads to support a state ballot initiative intended to raise taxes yet again – and only for the “wealthy” – which, if you can afford your own computer system to read this article, probably means you!

Right: Meathead offering a bribe to a pre-schooler?

California – Embattled Reiner slams his critics – sacbee.com

Facing a state audit and possible criminal investigation of the state commission he chaired, movie director Rob Reiner on Monday said his opponents are targeting him for attacks to avoid discussing the merits of the universal preschool initiative he put on the June ballot.

“They will do whatever it takes to knock this thing out,” he said in an interview with The Bee. “So they will attack me because they know they can’t talk about the initiative.”

Opponents responded that they have discussed the shortcomings of Proposition 82, including their argument that raising taxes on the wealthy to pay for preschool for all 4-year-olds could harm the state economy.

“We are not the ones who have called for any investigations,” said Joel Fox, the opposition campaign’s co-chairman. “That has come from the legislators or the press.”

But Reiner pointed out that the opposition campaign’s original name was “Stop the Reiner Initiative.”

“Stop Reiner!” he exclaimed. “Stop Reiner? Stop Reiner from what? From giving kids preschool?”

For the past three weeks, Reiner has been under fire from lawmakers because the First 5 California commission he chairs spent $23 million in taxpayer money on ads promoting preschool while Reiner was qualifying his “Preschool for All” initiative for the ballot.

Reiner sponsored Proposition 10, the 1998 initiative that created the commission he chairs and raised tobacco taxes to pay for early childhood programs.

“This money generated by Proposition 10 was not a private slush fund for Mr. Reiner to use,” said Assemblyman Dave Cox, R-Fair Oaks. “It appears that is what has transpired.”

Global Warming – a Hot Topic

Global Warming is always a hot topic since the left often uses the phenomenon to try and leverage their obstructive agenda. They generally attempt to blame the industry of mankind in general, and the United States in particular, for the “horrible” consequences of global warming.

The left embraces the Kyoto Accord, an international treaty whereby countries agree to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases by imposing restrictive laws and higher taxes. The United States is not signatory to the treaty, largely because it is based on the faulty premise that greenhouse gasses emitted by industry is the major contributing factor to global warming; in fact, chaotic solar activity has more to do with the climate on our planet than any other factors. Why should we sign up for a useless effort and penalize our industry and economy?

Volcanoes, range and forest fires and infrequent caldera activity have had temporary effects, but are not comparable to the major contributor, the Sun. And these terrestrial occurrences are much more consequential than anything our emissions can contribute (short of global thermonuclear war).

Thinking that the minor contribution of industrial emissions can compare with the influence of solar magnetic flux, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), x-ray flares, solar wind and other solar phenomena is like thinking that a mouse can single-handedly whip a herd of pachyderms. Complete nonsense.

Now, it seems that Old Sol is busily fusing hydrogen into helium, recharging his batteries, and resting up for yet another period of intense activity that is certain to result in a major assault on our planet’s climate. From Science Blog

Scientists Gaze Inside Sun, Predict the Next Solar Cycle

The next solar activity cycle will be 30 to 50 percent stronger than the previous one, and up to a year late in arriving . . .

[ . . . ]

The sun goes through a roughly 11-year cycle of activity, from stormy to quiet and back again. Predicting the sun’s cycles accurately years in advance will help societies plan for active bouts of solar storms, which can disrupt satellite orbits and electronics, interfere with radio communication, and damage power systems. The forecast is important for NASA’s long-term Vision for Space Exploration plans, since solar storms can be hazardous to unprotected astronauts as well.

[ . . . ]

We are currently back in the quiet period for the current cycle (cycle 23). The next cycle will begin with a rise in solar activity in late 2007 or early 2008, according to the team, and there will be 30 to 50 percent more sunspots, flares, and CMEs in cycle 24. This is about one year later than the prediction using previous methods, which rely on statistics, like the strength of the large-scale solar magnetic field and the number of sunspots, to make estimates for the next cycle.

The Grand Narcissathon

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has degenerated into a politically-charged dynamo of progressive bulls**t ever since Bob Hope retired as Master of Ceremonies at the annual award presentations. Motion pictures like “Syriana” and “Buttf**k Brokeback Mountain” are in contention to win big, but, sadly, neither can be considered entertainment as much as attempts at public indoctrination to far-left political ideology.

And the ceremony itself is mostly a gathering of exhibitionists and narcissistic Celebridiots® seeking only to parade themselves as though they are the essence of the world. Moreover, the preparations leading up to the ceremonies takes their toll on the community. Streets are blocked off in the area about a week before the event which disrupts traffic for miles around. We’re fortunate that we don’t have to go through that area during the week leading up to the awards.

I refer to the pomp and circumstances of the Academy Awards where the Celebridiots® gather as the “Grand Narcissathon” – in which exhibitionists and self-important Star Whores parade their vanity before their groupies.

UPDATE: Crash won best picture much to everyone’s surprise. IMDB‘s preview poll had Crash in a distant second place to Brokeback Mountain, 46% to 25%. Given the total surprise to everyone, one might wonder if the Academy may have manipulated the results based upon negative vibes they were getting from middle America with regard to a gay cowboy flick.

Still a Meathead

In an article we posted last December, Give Your Children to us – Now, we pointed out that the liberals in California are trying to get their hands deeper into the pockets of taxpayers by using worthwhile-sounding deceptions to make us all think higher taxes are for the better. Rob Reiner, a.k.a. “Meathead,” and his liberal associates are driving tax-paying businesses and residents out of the Golden State. Reiner’s tactics are called out very nicely in this article from Opinion Journal’s editorial staff:

Meathead Economics

It takes hard work to drive anyone away from California’s sunshine and scenic vistas, but politicians in Sacramento have been up to the task.

The latest Census Bureau data indicate that, in 2005, 239,416 more native-born Americans left the state than moved in. California is also on pace to lose domestic population (not counting immigrants) this year.

[ . . . ]

And things may soon get worse, thanks to Rob Reiner, who played the liberal “Meathead” on the “All in the Family” sitcom in the 1970s and now plays the same part in real life. He and his rich Hollywood friends have put an initiative on the state’s June ballot that would add a 1.7-percentage-point income-tax surcharge on “millionaires” with income over $400,000, with the proceeds earmarked for universal pre-school.

This isn’t Mr. Reiner’s first foray into confiscatory tax politics. Last year he sponsored a ballot initiative narrowly approved by voters that imposed a percentage-point income-tax surcharge (to the current 10.3%) to pay for government mental-health subsidies. And in the late 1990s he helped to pass an initiative to raise the state’s tobacco tax by 50 cents a pack to pay for children’s health care.

[ . . . ]

I think it’s time to induct Meathead into the Star Whores Hall of Shame. Welcome Rob Reiner to the “Most Destructive Liberals” gallery in the SWHS.
