Geez, What Are You Smoking, And Where Can I Get Some?
It is my intention to discuss a number of items under this heading, the number of which I do not know.
However, I'm pretty certain that there will be widely cast subjects both old and new, hence this may again become one of my haphazard series. Hopefully there will be at least some decent articles coming out of the series, but we'll just have to see.
In part I will be bringing in some of my previous articles on such topics on which I have before written if indeed my prognostications have been proven correct, or at least not proven wrong. In some cases I will use portions of my own writing to expand upon a topic with a new slant.
In no case am I intending to use other people's ideas to support my own and then call the series my own writing. I've hated this form of writing, and I really hate the research required for footnoting. If I use quotes from other people, in some cases I will have the quoted source, but in others it is likely that everyone know who said what when, and I will leave that aspect up to some easily done internet research.
I will include this prelude to each of my articles because I don't want to make everyone go back and find out what I was doing, as many blogs force you to do. I will do the research on my own material and include it, as much of what I've written over the last 10 years is actually printed out because no blog site properly did backups and I didn't trust them.
So this is just the introduction to this series. I've written a series before, and unfortunately I never got back to some of the topics I had desired to talk about, so these won't be numbered. They'll just be super titles.

Just days after I decided to do this series of columns, I get John Ensign tossed into my lap.
Today, I got Osama bin Laden thrown into my lap as a pornmeister.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry, split them up into two different columns, or run them as one.
The similarities are so ridiculous that one's mind bogles.
Ah, but the similarities don't stop there.
Let's take Allende's overthrow by Agusto Pinochet and the aftermath of his demeaning. Seems he was a cocaine addict, a cross dresser, and had a beautiful red dress to prove it. Then Noriega became that cocaine addict, cross dresser, and lo and behold, a photo of the same red dress.
Uday Hussein apparently loved to work out in his opulent gym, but he had full sized posters of the Bush twins on the wall.
Now Osama bin Laden is a porn addict.
Surprise, surprise.
Well, I guess I'm going to write about both John Ensign and Osama bin Laden in the same column.
Sorry John, but you brought it upon yourself. You can bet that bin Laden understands your urges and even your tenacity since he has multiple wives or those he would like to have as wives too.
I mean, what's the damned difference in this circumstance? A man desires a women, pursues her to abandonment on her part, and then professes love when he was getting all the milk from the cow without owning the cow.
Our sexual mores are somewhat askew when we choose to have a tryst with another man's wife rather than actually taking sexual relief in readily available porn, but it defines the difference between one man who was the most despicable man to the free world, and a man of the free world who did despicable things.
I'm not certain I like where this is going, but let's just wait a minute.
Do I consider John Ensign to be equal to Osama bin Laden? No, not at all.
What I'm talking about is that when one has the ability to sway people's opinions regardless of some level of moral depravity, then they have full ability to do what they want.
In both cases.
Ms. Hamilton was beholding to John Ensign and he took full advantage of the situation, to the detriment of his entire family, the Hamiltons' entire family, and the voters of Nevada who re-elected him based on a lie.
We're only talking a matter of scale here, and a difference of application.
However, let me get back to bin Laden's library of porn. I don't care. It has nothing to do with the reason he was killed, nor do the American people need to know about his personal proclivities anymore than they need to know what their neighbors are doing behind closed doors.
I'm tired of the United States finding "additional" reasons for someone to be taken out, particularly if the government did that in the States, then there would be massive murder going on. Just who does this government think is watching porn?
While not everyone is watching porn, do we actually want to know who is?
Should the US run rampant throughout the US and kill all the guys and gals watching porn? Is it only worth killing for if they are watching right at the time, or is having watched any porn at all at any time in their life worthy of the death sentence?
Osama bin Laden's personal library of porn was his own business and that of his wives if they had that right to gripe.
John Ensign, on the other hand, forced his Chief of Staff's wife to have sex with him because he had the power as an employer and as a "supposed" friend of the family who paid for their children's private education and paid a $96,000 bribe to be quiet.
And if the Hamiton's had not decided to talk they would have been yet bought again for the paltry sum of $96K. I mean, even if you only make $48k per year would it be worth the pursuit of the federal government for 2X your yearly salary? I'd want millions in bearer bonds, which goes to show the loyalty of the Hamiltons.
How much more beholden to anyone could a person become without papers for indentured servitude or outright ownership?
John Ensign enslaved his Chief of Staff's wife by holding both of their jobs over their heads whilst he committed adultery with an unwilling participant.
I wonder if John has a beautiful Red Dress?
