Gary Busey is broke

  Most of the time I would not comment on something like this …
but the TMZ headline got my attention:  “Gary Busey: I got 300 VHS Tapes to My Name …and 5 Pairs of Moccasins.” 

“Gary Busey has virtually no money left from his once-thriving Hollywood career -- but he has amassed an impressive collection of worthless junk ... including a bounty of cassette tapes and broken instruments ... this according to new docs obtained by TMZ.
TMZ broke the story ... Busey recently filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy ... and according to new docs Gary filed in federal bankruptcy court, Gary says he owes $508,600.96 in various debts.
According to the docs, Busey claims his main creditor is Uncle Sam ... admitting he stiffed the government out of $451k in state and federal taxes from 1998 to 2009.
Problem is ... Gary claims he only has $26,225 in personal assets ... including $1,200 in various bank accounts and a $7,000 security deposit with his landlord. Gary then lists EVERYTHING he owns ... including:…”

 

“William Gary Busey^[1] (born June 29, 1944), best known as Gary Busey, is an American film and stage actor, and artist. He has appeared in a large variety of films, as well as making regular appearances on Gunsmoke, Walker, Texas Ranger, Law & Order, and Entourage. He received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in 1978 for his role in The Buddy Holly Story…”

 

  He has had some great movie rolls.  He was in a motorcycle accident in 1988 and was not wearing a helmet.  He is reported to have received permanent brain damage.  He has had a number of legal issues starting in 1995. 
  Sounds like he needs someone to look after him.  The story says that he makes $19K a month and spends $22K a month. 

 

  Something I do not understand is why is it that these people end up not paying taxes.   When I worked the government always got my money first and then when I filed a tax return I got my some of my money back.  If you win money at a casino they take part for taxes and give you the rest.  If you win a lottery the same thing happens.
   But these “stars” seem to get millions and often then refuse to pay taxes.
   In Gary Busey’s case he may not have paid because of his brain damage and that may keep him out of jail but the government is still going to try and get their money.

   Gary Busey endorsed Donald Trump for President and called President Obama and his administration a “con job.”   I guess that shows you the sort of people for Donald Trump.
   

Republicans not interested in cutting spending

  The Republicans act like they want to cut spending.  Well they do want to cut spending on social programs or on programs that help working people.  
  But they never want to cut spending on certain items.
  There is a program called the Federal Flight Deck Officer Program (FFDO).  It lets pilots be armed.  The Republicans passed it and they loved the idea of having pilots with guns.  Of course we know of at least one case where one of their armed pilots had his gun go off by accident.  Thank God no one was hit and the aircraft was not hit in a spot that would crash it.   We also know of many causes of pilots trying to get on an aircraft to fly and they were drunk.
  Well anyway… the FFDO program cost us tax payers $25 million.  Just to let some macho pilot with a small penis feel like a cop. 
  In the the President’s budget he wants to cut the $25 million for the FFDO program to $12 million for 2013. 
  Oh my God the Republicans are crying and sobbing and screaming.   They do not not want one cent cut from the FFDO program.
  The Republicans do want to do away with the TSA that screens passengers and that also found those drunk pilots.  The Republicans want to replace the TSA employees with contact guards.  

  Republicans are so full of shit on every issue.

Who has been arrested and who is in jail?

  It is not raining or snowing right now.  It did start doing what you see on the left at about 8:30 PM.  But now at 2 AM there is just a wet sidewalk and a little snow on top of the grass and cars.
  The photo to the left was taken at 8:30 PM just as the snow started.
  It looks like all we get today is some light rain and then a low of 40 degrees and a high of 56 degrees.
  So I can get out and pick up some Coke.  I would like to get down to Subway and get a couple of their $5.00 subs.  This month their standard 12 inch subs are $5.00 of course that was the old price anyway.
  The Subways open at 7 AM and I like that but I do not think I will go today.   There is a block or two with no sidewalks to get to it.  So I would have to walk in mud.  (OK, I could go across the street and walk down on that side walk.  But I am lazy.)
  
  I posted here about Pintoli compression socks.  Since I said good things about compression socks and about the Pintoli socks I would like to be honest and upfront with you.  The company liked my Amazon review and what I said about their socks and on Saturday I received free two pair of compression socks.
  They sent one pair of Pintoli socks travel & trouser (large size) PTI-1067.  They also sent one pair of athletic PTI-1066 (XL size) because I had blogged that I wanted to try XL.
   I think you all know that I am honest about what I say here and a pair or two of socks is not going to bribe me.  (It would take three pair.  Just kidding.  Smile)

   Last night I was just looking around on the web to see what I could find.  I found sites back in the Kansas City area that list who was arrested.  It gives their names and information about them.  In fact it list everyone arrested by that police department.  I also found sites that list everyone in their jail and the names and information on the ones released. 
  The Cass County site listed people wanted.  Long list.  Thank God my name was not listed non any of my family.   
  In the listing of people in jail I did find the name of a kid that was my son’s age.  So he would be about 30 years old now.  He was a wild kid when he was a teen.  We heard that the kid got arrested by the local police for drugs.  Then a day or two later he was out of jail.  He called my son and my daughter and we heard he called other kids their age and was asking if they could get him drugs.  The police had offered him a deal, I guess, give us other names and set someone up for us. 
  Well I see he is jail now for domestic assault and for a felony probation violation. 

  I love the internet and information.  I would have loved when I was working hospital security to access to all this sort of information.  When I arrested someone I would have loved to look up and see what the charge was listed as and their court date and their bond and information like that and loved to know when they were released.  Hell I arrested a guy one time and he must have had bond money in his pocket because a couple of hours later he came back to the hospital and I arrested him again.
  Of course it sounds like some of those sites are not undated in real time.
  
  But I also am not sure about the information.  When I was a kid my father was arrested a couple of times for DWI.  I would not have wanted that information out there for people to find.
  I also had other family members that had got arrested.  I would hate to have others finding that sort of information.  
  We lived in a small town (30K people) for years and the local paper printed the names and information of everyone that had contact with the police.   I mean everything…. stopped for speeding…barking dog etc.    I guess it all comes down to if it is someone else getting the bad PR or your family or friends.

Take away the tax exempt status of the Catholic Church please

  Anytime the Catholic bishops of the United States meet there should be people outside with signs about the pedophile problem in the Church.
  Anytime the Catholic bishops make any statement people should be there with signs about the “religious” pedophiles.
   
  I say this because the Catholic bishops like to make public statements about how birth control is a sin and how women can not be priest and other statements like that….  But they do not want to talk about the problems of Catholic priest fucking little boys.

  In fact let us go even better than that… Let’s make it anytime a Catholic bishop shows up anyplace there should be people with signs.
  Let’s make them have to hide in their big homes and fear going out in public.

    
  “ WRITE to CONGRESS TODAY -- A recent edict by HHS is “literally unconscionable.” It demands that sterilization, abortifacients and contraception be included in virtually all health plans. Study the issue & then write to Congress urging support for the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act here..”

 

  “edict” by the Health and Human Services?    The United States government does not issue “edicts.”  That CATHOLIC Church issues “edicts” that you must follow or you will burn in hell.
    “literally unconscionable” -  It is unconscionable that a woman should have the ability to use birth control if she wishes?  I understand that the bishops and priest do not think often about a woman’s vulva.  They sure never think about a woman’s clitoris.   We know they spend all their time thinking about the penis and testicles of little ten year old boys.  But why is it “unconscionable” for a woman to have the right and the ability to use birth control if she wishes?

    Yes study the issues and write and call Congress and ask that the tax exempt status be taken away from any organization that allows, promotes and acts so as to allow perverts to have access to little boys and girls even if the organization is a church.
    You allow and fall to report sexual crimes against children and you do not get a tax exempt status.  The Catholic Church should pay taxes and that money should go into a special account to be used by the department of HHS for children.

Home Savers

253-382-9080 

  You all know me I am a nice guy.  Correct? 
You may also know I do not like the telephone.  I do not chat away on the telephone.  I hate dealing with phone calls.
  I just recently got a new phone number and I been getting calls.   Someone trying to collect money I think from who ever had the phone before (Smith). 
  I also been getting calls from “Home Savers” and I think they are one of those scum bag groups that try and fuck over someone that is having problems with their home loan.  I am not sure but I think that is the case.
  They have called a number of times.   One time the guy called and I said I was not the person and did not own a home and the guy hung up in my ear without saying anything.
  The same guy called today and I did not take the call but I called back the phone number right away:  253-382-9080 and he answered right away and said is this Mr. Prue or something like that and I said “no” and he hung up on me right away.
  I called him right back and he answered again and asked if I was Mr. Prue and I told that mother fucker that I was not and if he fucking called my number one more time I was going to come up there and pull his fucking lungs out of him.  I told him I am on a do not call list.  I said mother fucker do NOT fucking call me again. 
  He said he was sorry and he had a “button on his phone” and I said what will that do and he said take your number off my phone so I do not call again.  I said what is my number and he gave me my phone number and then I fucking told him again “DO NOT FUCKING CALL ME AGAIN YOU SOB!”

 

  Why can’t we hunt down and kill people like this? I want them dead.  I want their entire families dead.
Now a couple of things… One thing he/they did not use call blocking.  Another thing it was not a robot call with a recorded message.  I been getting some of those from companies. 
Also it takes a month to get on a do not call list and I do not think it has been a month yet.

  But a word of warning to home owners from Jim Howard ….   these companies that say they are going to help homeowners facing foreclosure are the lowest of the low.  They are the scum of the earth.   They are flat out crooks. 
  These companies take your money and do nothing. 

 

“Free foreclosure and homeownership counseling is available at www.homeownership.wa.gov or by contacting the Washington State Homeownership Information Hotline at 1-877-894-HOME (1-877-894-4663). Additional resources are listed on the Attorney General’s Web site at www.atg.wa.gov/foreclosure.aspx.

Freedom of information

  Well now we can read about Steve Jobs.  Not from one of the books about him but from his FBI file. 
  I believe in the freedom of information act.  I think we need something like that but I do not think that the news media should have the right to get all the information and release it.
  It is the same with 911 calls.  We need to have the ability for someone to listen to them to make sure that things are being done correct.  But every time a person makes a 911 call for the police or an ambulance the news media should not be allowed to broadcast it or even print it.

  What right do we have to hear a 911 call from someone when a star has a fight at their home or takes drugs and needs an ambulance?  
 
  I lived in FL for a few years and they have a law in that state that makes it possible for the news media to get just about everything.  There would be stuff that they should not have the right to access but the DA or the police would say well the law allows them to get the information.
  A couple of times I was shocked that they got the information and printed it and broadcast the information.  I can not remember which stories it was now but one of them was autopsy photos of a dead  child.

  Must of the information in the FBI file of Steve Jobs came because he was being considered for an appointment to a government commission or something like that.

  I have had back ground investigations done on me.  I am not sure if the first was when I attempted to join the Peace Corp or if the first was when I went to work for the Post Office.
  Then I had background investigations done when I was on the list to get a job as a Federal Protection Officer.
  There might have been other times that I can not remember.
  The last time was when I worked for a contract guard agency that had the contract to supply security for FAA control towers here in Texas.  The guard company was having a hell of a time getting anyone approve.  The FAA was turning down just about every one they checked.  The company got all the post filled and then after a few months the air traffic control union (yes, there is a very powerful air traffic control union) convinced the FAA that they did not need security for the control towers and that was the end of the job for me and the contract for the guard company.
  
  In the United States just about everyone has background checks done on them.  So just about all of us have FBI files.  Hell my father had a Q Clearance back when I was in grade school. 

Bank Mortgage Fraud deal

“The government is expected to announce on Thursday a roughly $26 billion deal with some of the nation's largest banks to settle charges of systemic and widespread mortgage fraud, according to multiple sources close to the negotiations.

The deal would be the largest payout to date from banks in the wake of the financial crisis.

The settlement, 16 months in the making, could bring significant relief to those in danger of losing their homes and also much needed stability to the long-suffering housing market.

Those who already lost their home, however, would receive just the smallest fraction of the money: a one-time cash payment of about $1,800 as compensation. “Their entire lives have been turned upside down and changed," said Philip Robinson, the acting executive director of Civil Justice, a Baltimore-based nonprofit that has worked with thousands of Maryland families fighting for their homes. "Does $1,800 sound fair? Does that seem like compensation for a financial and emotional tragedy?"

The Department of Housing and Urban Development, one of the Obama administration's lead negotiators on the deal, could not be reached for comment…”   The Huffington Post

 

    Banks committed major wide spread fraud.  They committed felonies.  No one is going to jail.  If you or I had done what they did we would be in a federal prison for mail and wire fraud and other crimes.
    They are going to pay a fine. They will, of course, get all that fine money back from you and I.
    
    I think what should have happened is that outside of each bank hanging from the flag pole should be the president of the bank.  Maybe also other officers of the banks.
   Everyone that had any part in the fraud should not be allowed to work in banking, Wall Street and in other areas doing with business.  They should be allowed to work fast food jobs.
   The banks should have been taken over by the government.  They should now be owned by the American people.  They should be run and profits made should be paid to the American people. We should all be owners of the banks.

  The President of the United States should have called in Wall Street and the bankers and told them “You fuck with us – WE FUCK WITH YOU.”  
  I got a feeling that we should see a change the way Wall Street and major corporations worked after that.  

  The Republicans talk about the “free market.”   There is NO free market in the United States.
  Banks and Wall Street are a criminal conspiracy. 

 

“In criminal law, a conspiracy is an agreement between two or more persons to break the law at some time in the future. Criminal law in some countries or for some conspiracies may require that at least one overt act must also have been undertaken in furtherance of that agreement, to constitute an offense. There is no limit on the number participating in the conspiracy and, in most countries, no requirement that any steps have been taken to put the plan into effect (compare attempts which require proximity to the full offence). For the purposes of concurrence, the actus reus is a continuing one and parties may join the plot later and incur joint liability and conspiracy can be charged where the co-conspirators have been acquitted or cannot be traced. Finally, repentance by one or more parties does not affect liability but may reduce their sentence…”

Girls with involuntary movement aka mass hysteria

  Am I the only person in the United States that is a big Seinfeld fan?  Remember the episode with George and his “involuntary” arm movement? 
  I think the 11 school girls with Tourette-like tics must have also seen that episode.
 

  When I saw the girls on TV with their tics I was thinking it was a promo for a new Salem witch trial movie. 

  As I watched them I wanted to laugh.
  Now I understand if those are you kids you are going to believe them and being worry about them.  Plus if you are people at the school or medical people you got to look into it. 
  It would be so bad to write off a real sickness.  So you got to check everything and be 100% sure.

  But then you need to take those girls and take a belt to their asses.
  NO NO.. but fucking ground them…   no cell phones, no TV, no games … they need rest in their rooms and work around the house until they turn 18 years of age.
  And if you are a boy stay away from those girls.  Do not date them.  Do not look at them.
 
  If this was the 1600s there would be people in that town that would be arrested for witchcraft.  There would be people in that town that would be hanged because of girls like that.

  You know the first warning bell for me was that it was all girls.  Not one boy.

   Everyone say after me “MASS HYSTERIA.”

Let us not forget false allegations of sexual abuse in the L.A. case

  A second teacher at the L.A. school arrested.   He “fondled” two girls about 7 years of age.  It might be true but could it have been he hugged two girls?  I fear this smells of a witch hunt now.  Plus the charge is that he fondled two girls in the class room and his bail is set at 2 MILLION dollars!  It looks like they are going to make it so he can not defend himself.
  Now the first teacher is guilty as hell.  He needs a high bail but I do think $23 million is to high. 
Right wing Republicans will not agree with me and the born again gang will not agree with me.  But it is funny they support freedom of religion and gun ownership and they bow their heads and hold their hands up to God because those are in the Bill of Rights.  Well the right to bail is in the Bill of Rights.
  Now again.. I am sitting here on my ass in Fort Worth and I have no details on what is going on out in L.A. at the school but for this second guy I do fear false allegations of sexual abuse. 
  If I worked at that school doing anything I would be scared shitless right now.  Mommy and daddy are going to be asking little kids scary questions and what are those little kids going to say? 
  Also I am sure that everyone is putting pressure on the DA and the police.  They are going to be asking questions and looking at everyone.

  My God let us not forget the McMartin case.  That was such a miscarriage of justice that it brings shame to our justice system and to the United States.
  I have seen reports on TV of other cases like it.  One was a small town and a couple of people were charged with sexual abuse of a child or children and before long just about everyone in town was being charged and if you just drove down the highway in the town you might get stopped and charged with child sexual abuse.

  I hope they find anyone guilty out there in L.A.  But I hope they find people that are “guilty.”
If the second teacher is not guilty … Just think how he must feel.  Sitting in jail charged with about the worst thing that you can be charged with and having everyone hating your guts and wanting you dead and your bail is set at two million dollars.

Kansas Speaker O’Neal ask House GOP to pray for Obama’s death!

  The following is from Examiner.Com:

“Kansas House Speaker Mike O’Neal is under fire after asking Republican House members to pray for President Barack Obama’s death. O’Neal made the request via an email he forwarded to GOP colleagues in the House. In an email sent in December, O’Neal asked his fellow Republicans to pray Psalm 109, which contains the following lines:

Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

The email has become the subject of a mini-media frenzy. Numerous major news outlets began reporting the details surrounding the disturbing prayer request on Friday.

The relevant verse from Psalm 109 is considered a prayer for vengeance, a prayer for the death of a leader. The most damning part of the prayer is lines 7-12:

'When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.
Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labor.
Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.'

Think Progress reports that O’Neal forwarded the prayer with his own message:

“At last — I can honestly voice a Biblical prayer for our president! Look it up — it is word for word! Let us all bow our heads and pray. Brothers and Sisters, can I get an AMEN? AMEN!!!!!!”

News of the email is a sad commentary on Republican politics in Kansas.  In addition, the email prayer request indicates an astonishing disregard and disrespect for the office of the presidency. For a government official to pray for the death of President Obama, and encourage other government officials to do the same, is not only morally reprehensible, it is also treason.”

 

  Is it treason?   If you believe in pray then I think it is treason.  If you believe in God then I think it is treason.
  It is un-American for sure. 
  I think not only should he resign as Speaker of the House but I think he should resign from the House.  Plus everyone that he sent that email to and did not object to it and call for him to resign should not hold office of any sort.

  Kansas House Speaker Mike O’Neal sent an email in the past to his follow House Republicans and called Michelle Obama “Mrs. YoMama.” 

   Some Kansas ministers have a 30,000 signature petition calling on House Speaker Mike O’Neal to resign.
   I read some comments made about the ministers and most of the comments attack the ministers;  “bozos posiing as reverends”,  “dishonest ‘reverends’” etc. 
   Again you can see the true color of the Republicans.  They wrap themselves in the American flag but they are un-American to their very core.
