George Carlin

George Carlin telling us how he really feels

 

"Been sitting here with my ass in a wad, wanting to speak out about the

bullshit going on in New Orleans. For the people of New Orleans... First

we would like to say, Sorry for your loss. With that said, Let's go

through a few hurricane rules: (Unlike an earthquake, we know it's coming)

 

#1. A mandatory evacuation means just that...Get the hell out. Don't

blame the Government after they tell you to go. If they hadn't said

anything, I can see the argument. They said get out... if you didn't,

it's your fault, not theirs. (We don't want to hear it, even if you don't

have a car, you can get out.)

 

#2. If there is an emergency, stock up on water and non-perishables. If

you didn't do this, it's not the Government's fault you're starving.

 

#2a. If you run out of food and water, find a store that has some.

(Remember, shoes, TV's, DVD's and CD's are not edible. Leave them alone.)

 

#2b. If the local store has been looted of food or water, leave your

neighbor's TV and stereo alone. (See #2a) They worked hard to get their

stuff. Just because they were smart enough to leave during a mandatory

evacuation, doesn't give you the right to take their stuff...it's theirs,

not yours.

 

#3. If someone comes in to help you, don't shoot at them and then complain

no one is helping you. I'm not getting shot to help save some dumbass who

didn't leave when told to do so.

 

#4. If you are in your house that is completely under water, your

belongings are probably too far gone for anyone to want them. If someone

does want them, let them have them and hopefully they'll die in the filth.

Just leave! (It's New Orleans, find a voodoo warrior and put a curse on

them.)

 

#5. My tax money should not pay to rebuild a 2 million dollar house, a

sports stadium or a floating casino. Also, my tax money shouldn't go to

rebuild a city that is under sea level. You wouldn't build your house on

quicksand would you? You want to live below sea-level, do your country

some good and join the Navy.

 

#6. Regardless of what the Poverty Pimps Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton

want you to believe, The US Government didn't create the Hurricane as a way

to eradicate the black people of New Orleans; (Neither did Russia as a way

to destroy America). The US Government didn't cause global warming that

caused the hurricane (We've been coming out of an ice age for over a

million years).

 

#7. The government isn't responsible for giving you anything. This is the

land of the free and the home of the brave, but you gotta work for what you

want. McDonalds and Wal-Mart are always hiring, get a damn job and stop

spooning off the people who are actually working for a living.

 

President Kennedy said it best... "Ask not what your country can do for

you, ask what you can do for your country."

 

Thank you for allowing me to rant,"

 

George

"right wing black helicopter crap"? You say that he is a "liberal atheist" and

wouldn't have wrote "this stuff", and then you say his "religious and rascist views are a little wacked out". Those are very conflicting ideoligies. Did you even read

the commentary? Anyway, sounds like Carlin's work to me and if not I'm sure he wouldn't think that it was black helicopter crap .

[Wallrat]

Yeah it seems to be lacking that Carlin edge IMO. Personally I love his rants on religion - wait...make that organized religion. Here's a good one of his:

 

(btw if you're offended by the possibility that maybe other people don't share your views on religion, stop reading now...)

 

 

George Carlin on Religion

When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!

 

But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a good bullshit story. Holy Shit!

 

But I want you to know something, this is sincere, I want you to know, when it comes to believing in God, I really tried. I really, really tried. I tried to believe that there is a God, who created each of us in His own image and likeness, loves us very much, and keeps a close eye on things. I really tried to believe that, but I gotta tell you, the longer you live, the more you look around, the more you realize, something is flowered up.

 

Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed. Results like these do not belong on the r

Yep. Here is some more "secret" reality for you.

 

Lets review this law that George Busch Sr. pushed through congress one more time.

 

Public Law 102--14 (H.J. Res. 104): March 20, 1991

Education Day, USA Proclamation

Joint Resolution to designate March 26, 1991 as "Education Day, USA"

 

Whereas Congress recognizes the historical tradition of ethical values and principles which are the basis of civilized society and upon which our great Nation was founded;

 

Whereas these ethical values and principles have been the bedrock of society from the dawn of civilization, when they were known as the Seven Noahide Laws;

 

Whereas without these ethical values and principles the edifice of civilization stands in serious peril of returning to chaos;

 

Whereas society is profoundly concerned with the recent weakening of these principles that has resulted in crises that beleaguer and threaten the fabric of civilized society;

 

Whereas the justified preoccupation with these crises must not let the citizens of this Nation lose sight of their responsibility to transmit these ethical values from our distinguished past to the generations of the future;

 

Whereas the Lubavitch movement has fostered and promoted these ethical values and principles throughout the world;

 

Whereas Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, leader of the Lubavitch movement, is universally respected and revered and his eighty-ninth birthday falls on March 26, 1991;

 

Whereas in tribute to this great spiritual leader, "the rebbe", this, his ninetieth year will be seen as one of "education and giving", the year in which we turn to education and charity to return the world to the moral and ethical values contained in the Seven Noahide Laws; and

 

Whereas this will be reflected in an international scroll of honor signed by the President of the United States and other heads of state: Now, therefore be it

 

Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That March 26, 1991, the start of the ninetieth year of Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, leader of the worldwide Lubavitch movement, is designated as "Education Day. U.S.A.". The President is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

 

Approved March 20, 1991.

 

 

The second Noahide Law which prohibits blasphemy will preclude the worship of Jesus Christ, who was once accused of this very crime by the Sanhedrin. Moses Maimonides (Rabbi Moshe Ben Maimon - 1138

Wow...just wow. I almost didn't post my Carlin rant simply because it was pretty long winded. That tool took the cake though. At least my post was light and amusing and gee, actually by Carlin. 04le, I'll be amazed if anybody besides holyman actually reads that crap. Why don't you start a new thread and quit trying to hijack one aptly tightled: George Carlin.

Yours was on topic though. I always stay out of the bs, but his post pissed me off. Everyone has their opinions on religion, but people that try to push their views on others piss me off.
