As
you can see, I was a pretty precocious kid. “Big Honker”, the nurses in
the maternity ward called me. Which is funny, because my nose was
always a normal length. What do you think they meant? Hmmmmmm. . .

* This isn’t about me!!
Anywho, as I grew up (no pun intended), I lost interest in girls as I discovered TV! Comic Books!! Magazines!!! Movies!!!! Radio!!!!! Newspapers!!!!!! Real books!!!!!!! THE MEDIA!!!!!!!! BACKS OF CEREAL BOXES!!!!!!!!! Just like most of you, it’s been a life-long love affair that’s been like a roller coaster ride. When I was a kid, the news and entertainment was mostly conservative. Then, right before my beady little eyes, it turned liberal, and now, it’s turning conservative again. Just like me! Yes, friends and neighbors, I was a conservative little kid, then turned liberal in high school. Now, since 9/11, I’ve been rediscovering my conservative roots. So it shouldn’t be surprising that my favorite quote is, “If you’re not a liberal when you’re 25, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative by the time you’re 35, you have no brain.”
THE SAGA OF FUNKWOOD HEIGHTS
• The Misadventure Begins •








Funkwood
Heights is my hometown. A small midwestern town in Illinois, home of
the red white and blueneck. Where main street is State Highway 76, on
which the speed limit is actually observed, with the exception of an
occaisional out of towner (or out of lucker, as he’s refered to here).
It’s where the men are hard-hat working and the women are professional
- and/or - housewives, and the children are forever snot-nosed. In
Funkwood Heights, the town sport is professional wrestling, and the
cats and dogs beat up on each other with bats, balls, and bricks.
On
any Summer Saturday morning, you can see droopy-drawered little
leaguers over at the schoolyard baseball field wailing on each other
and the parents cheering them on - or is it the other way around? On
any given Sunday morning, you will witness long lines of the devoted
filing into St. Inebriata for weekly services, and the same long lines
staggering out of the Holy Spirits Tavern, located right behind the
church on Hickman Ave., where you’ll find the church pastor, Father
Brandywine serving up a bit o’ the spititus fermenti at the bar. And on
any average weekday, you can view drones of workers trudging off to
work at various establishments all across Funkwood Heights. The
butcher, the baker, the illegal alien grass cutter. (sorry, Tommy,
you’re out of a job) The car jacker, the call girl, the mafia hitman.
Proud upstanding citizens all, making their way to the bank, the post office, the
chop shop.
Come on down and visit a spell! Just make sure to bring
plenty of cash for booze, barbeque sauce, and parking/speeding tickets.
And for cripesakes, wear something flourescent orange, please! It’s
ALWAYS hunting season here in Funky Funkwood Heights.












ALERT! ALERT!!
Most
people in America know more about Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, and
George Clooney than they know about Jane Goodall, Elle Weisel, and the
Pope, not to mention that the war in Iraq is turning in our favor and
we are winning!!
Doper is
the name, and political Media blogging is my game. I’ve got more built
up grouchiness against most of the liberal/regressive™ mainstream Media
than a pinto bean-eating cow has gas. So watch out, something’s gonna
blow, and it ain’t the cow! And yes, that’s right, you read the
headline above correctly. It does say 100% unfair and unbalanced. I
recently heard a radio talk show host comment that radio talk shows
that don’t allow opposing opinions to be heard are boring. Even Mr.
O’Reilly on Fox News won’t allow Michael Savage and others on his show
because Mr. Bill says they’re “extremists”. Well, I’m here to tell you
that you can include CBS, NBC, ABC, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, HBO, Time,
Newsweek, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Chicago’s Tribune
and Sun-Times, and the Hollyweird motion picture industrial complex; as
well as too many others to name here in that extremist category. So,
I’m willing to make a deal. The day that all the aforementioned
one-sided fascist media propaganda mills start allowing EQUAL
representation for opposing viewpoints, so will I. Something tells me,
though that that will only happen when pigs are flying in a frozen over
hell. That applies especially when Hollyweird starts making an EQUAL
number of movies and television shows with conservative ideals,
concerns, and affinities to balance out the current output of
liberal/regressive™, anti-military, anti-peace through strength,
anti-capitalism, anti-property, anti-independence/freedom/liberty
product that we’re assaulted with now. That’s when we’ll REALLY see
those pigs flying. HAH! So until THAT day, at the risk of being accused
of being boring, I’m fighting fire with fire. And anyone who has a
problem with it can go teach pigs how to fly.
BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!!
There’s
been a lot of talk about fear lately. Chris Daffyews accusing Jon
Stewart of being afraid of his poppycock book. Dippy journalists
accusing those of us who choose to shine the light of sarcastic
revelation on those that deserve it, of acting out of fear. Well, yeah.
Fear is healthy. Hate is healthy. They’re healthy when they’re directed
against something that threatens your very existence. Like a hurricane,
your mother-in-law, Taco Bell, simple minded monetary handouts (social
welfare) or psychotic Islamonazi terrorists. They’re healthy when
they’re directed against the kind of people who would enable the latter
two things. People like Billary Clinton or Hussein Obama. They’re
normal when they make you THINK. Can you say,“WAKE UP CALL”? There’s a
reason you don’t stick your hand in that fire, isn’t there? Dear
Reverend, to deny the importance of justifiable fear and hate is to
deny the wisdom of God. If the emotions of fear and hate are so bad,
why did God create them? Oh OK, then you’re saying that God is an
idiot. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. Wonderful. Then Michael the
Archangel is the only one who’s allowed to have a sword, or a pen.
That’s like saying Emeril Lagasse is the only one allowed to have a
kitchen. Fear and hate can be positive motivators to get you off your
lazy butt and gain the COURAGE to do the right thing. Fear motivates
you to squash that poisonous spider and flush it before it kills you,
your wife, or your kids. Fear and mutual hate motivates you to buy your
mother-in-law a one-way ticket to Bangladesh, before she kills you,
your wife, or your kids. Fear of pushing a shopping cart for the rest
of your life motivates you to get a job, or hold on to the one you have
for dear life. Fear motivates you to take out that garbage before your
wife kills you. You BETTER be afraid, VERY afraid. Because if any of
the liberal/regressives™ get into the White House, you might as well
kiss your butt goodbye. You’ll have the dickens taxed out of you, and
your head will be handed to the terrorists on a platter by the Democrat
party when their negotiating with and sweet talking to psychotic
killing terrorists fails once again. Just like it failed for Clinton
and Carter. It’s a time of war. It’s the same as when you’re walking
down a dark alley in the middle of the night in the most dangerous part
of town, you want to have the biggest, meanest Pit Bull with you, not a
wimpy Basset Hound. And remember when the bobbsie twins, Clinton and
Gore promised to give the middle class bigtime tax cuts, and and then
failed to deliver? Talk about LYING. It was the LYINGEST presidency in
history. And the big Bore is still trying to get you to believe that
the sky falling is YOUR fault! HAH!! DON’T TRUST THEM. DON’T TRUST ANY
OF THEM!! President Bush said he would protect Democracy around the
world whatever it took. He came in, and that’s what he did. He did what
he said he would do. And THEN SOME! THANK GOD HE DID! It will pay off
in the long run. And there’s every indication that Giuliani, Romney,
McCain, or Thompson would do the same.
And
then there’s the media. They have the stupid audacity to suggest that
the American people don’t like negative campaigning. It’s not only
STUPID, it’s HYPOCRITICAL. With all the sensationalist negative bad
news crap the media (especially the liberal/regressive™ variety) feeds
the American people on a daily basis, in the greedy pursuit of the
almighty high ratings. And man, do they ever GET those high ratings!
The more NEGATIVE, the higher the RATINGS. GIVE ME A BREAK!! Show me
the honest, hard working American who can’t appreciate a good old
fashioned MUD SLING. Especially when it’s done with a good dose of good
old sarcastic farcical humor. I happen to know from personal experience
(if you hadn’t noticed already), that sarcasm is the most endearing
personality trait anyone can have! Just ask my wife, and Elizabeth
Stegalinsky, my first grade school crush, that I had in stitches on a
daily basis, (especially after knocking her around when she wouldn’t
laugh at my jokes) along with many, many others. They’ll tell you!
They’ll tell you they’d like to give me a good swift kick in the butt!
(JUST KIDDING!!) What more can I say, except for, maybe, “LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN, LET YOUR MUD FLY!!!!” And may the best mud win.
By
the way, to all mainstream mope journalists who try to illegitimate my
friends and fellow bloggers/political websiters with chicken-livered
mischaracterization, I’ve just about had it with you, and you’re riding
for a fall. I have a very special Rant•O•Rama entry and invitation just
for you. So get you’re chicken feathers preened and you’re butts
covered you GLORIFIED, SPINELESS, OVERRATED, RUMDUM HACKS. DICK DOPER
IS BRINGING IT ON!!!!!!! Go to RANT•O•RAMA, now! Check out: PHILISTINE,
HEAL THYSELF! DON’T BE A MOLOCH!
How
dare you inseminate that I live in my mother’s basement!? I’ll have you
know that I DO NOT live in her basement! I live in her attic. At least
my wife and I have our own car; a kick-butt Shelby Mustang convertible.
Waitaminute, is’nt the Mustang a fat ugly lesbian car? (the kind of
fatty that likes to wear Hawaiian shirts) DAMMMMM! Also, to all critics
of bodily functional humor - hey, Bozo, there’s nothing wrong with it,
as long as you clean it up! Besides, Pope John XXIII said it’s OK,
OKAY??!! For plenty of examples, go to TOONS•N•PICS, now! Got a problem
with that??
For decades,
from the studios of Hollyweird to the New York newsrooms and network
studios of the mainstream liberal/regressive™ news media, Americans
have been fed the biggest load of baloney since the days before vegans
declared war on Oscar Meyer. (poor Oscar, lets just give him a
cigarette and a blindfold and call it a day, but that’s another story).
Well, boobies, I’m here to chew bubble gum and start cutting through
all that bogus leftist baloney like a hot chain saw through chopped
liver to get to the righteous traditionalist unmitigated truth!
Take
back America? You betcha! Taken back from the Cherry Garcia left-wing
nuts. My fellow bamboozled Americans, we have to take back our movies,
our television, our newspapers, our magazines, our books, our music,
and our sandwiches! Not to mention our coffee. No more tall shmall,
bente shmente, grande shmande! It’s SMALL, MEDIUM AND LARGE! You
FRITALIAN FREAKS!
So, kiddies, upgrade your desktops, reboot your
laptops, tune in your Ipods, focus on your Blackberries, play with your
Iphones, and hold on to your butts! It’s going to be a long and bumpy
ride. I may not get there with you, but I’ve seeeeen the promised
culture, and it’s one of traditional ideals, honorable and profound in
it’s beauty. Once again, we’ll have the cultural images that have been
stolen from us. The images of the proud brave soldier, the trusted just
lawmaker, the industrious honorable businessman, the respected and
respectful citizen, the BEAUTIFUL American. Can you say, DIGNITY?
For
those of you who might throw the word “hate” around carelessly, my
intention is to hold a mirror up to hateful, hypocritical
liberal/regressives™ who have, for decades, to further their political
causes, and in many cases their own self-gain, like terrorists using
bombs, used unfair, untrue, vicious attacks in the media on
conservatives and the beautiful Americans mentioned above. Why do they
do it? For all this time the left-wing liberals™ have been “victims of
victimology”. They use sadistic hate speech and strike out because of
the paranoid delusional fear that something is being stolen from them,
while at the same time doing exactly what they accuse others of. Can
you say “great right-wing conspiracy”?
I know,
I know what you’re thinking, “Well, Dick, is’nt that what you’re
doing?” Even though sometimes you have to fight fire with fire, I don’t
think so. Compared to some of the other political sites and blogs on
the Net, I’m Pollyanna. But as they say on Fox News, we’ll let the
people decide. Not the Media Nazis, not the pundits, THE PEOPLE! I
tractate, I lucubrate, I descant, I disquire, I prolepticate, you
decide. Hey media dictators, got a problem with that?
Thus,
I’m bringing it on, standing up for, and defending those who have been
the subjects of these attacks. The political left has been asking for
it for years, and now they’ve got it. Can you say “JUSTICE”? This means
CULTURAL WAR!
So beware, Mr. and Mrs. liberal/regressive™, wherever
you are, you may be king of the cultural hill now, but remember these
words, "For over a thousand years Roman conquerors returning from the
wars enjoyed the honor of triumph, a tumultuous parade. In the
procession came trumpeteers, musicians and strange animals from
conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and
captured armaments. The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot, the
dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children
robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses.
A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown above his
head and whispering in his ear a warning:
that 'all glory is fleeting'..."

Life is good...


You do what you gotta do. Why do I do what I do? Money? Yeah sure, I can use as much grease for my wheels as I can get. But there’s a lot more to it than that. Six years ago there were some children on four planes. They were traveling to visit relatives, to an academic competition, to Disneyland, and various other destinations. Those children never arrived. Three of the the planes crashed into buildings, the other into a field. Those children died the way children should never have to die. These crashes were no accidents. It was September 11th, 2001. Thevoices of those children speak to us constantly. They say, “Never let this happen again. Never forget us.”That is why I do what I do. We can’t all be heroes and join up to fight the good fight in the Middle East where the action is. I would love to fly to Pakistan and personally stick mortar rounds up Bin Laden’s and Al Zawahiri’s asses. Unfortunately, theyaren’t allowing card carrying members of AARP to pull that kind of stuff. So this is my own, humble, little contribution to the fight. To try to counteract the despicable and disgusting, small-brained, and seditious left wing liberal/regressive™movement to join forces with the terrorists and sabotage our country’s efforts to win the battles against the Islamofacist terrorists who were responsible for those children’s deaths, as well as the deaths of all the other men and women who died that day. To, in some small way, do something to motivate and reinforce the fightagainst that enemy who wants to kill the rest of us. Also against the kind of traitorous scum who are flying or displaying the flag upside down. To ensure that the war against that enemy is eventually won, and that we are victorious. All the time remembering those small, innocent voices, as we all should, every day of ourlives, for the rest of our lives. “Never let this happen again. Never forget us.”

NEVER FORGET
SEPTEMBER 11th, 2001
