It's All About Me, Man

I've finally achieved consistency in my life. Any person of average or above intelligence can predict what I will say next with unerring accuracy. And what I say will always be wrong.

Fwd: [ITSALLABOUTMEMAN] Re: MATT, Shipment delivery problem #00000855661

 

Hey Garba,

It looks like you might have some competition when it comes to killing me, this Gordon Driscoll looks like he's pretty eager to do the job himself.  I hope he doesn't get to me before you do at the May 8th event:  https://www.facebook.com/events/805873476134260/

By the way, I've been meaning to ask, but keep forgetting; are you named after
Colonel (later Lieutenant General) Garba Duba who was Governor of Bauchi State, Nigeria from July 1978 to October 1979 during the military regime of General Olusegun Obasanjo, and Administrator of Sokoto State from January 1984 to August 1985 during the military regime of Major General Muhammadu Buhari? 

Or could you be that very same Garba Duba?  It would be amazing to be assassinated by such a great and famous man!

Hey Dan

Thanks for letting me know about the problem with delivering my package. 

I'm pretty sure that it's a package of anthrax from Gordon Driscoll, so if its all the same to you, I'd appreciate it if you'd just send it back to him.

Thanks,

Matt Love

[ITSALLABOUTMEMAN] Re: Elizabeth Warren (I'm in!)

 

Hi, Lawrence,

I'll be voting for a candidate who offers an alternative to perpetual war, and who doesn't unconditionally support the apartheid regime in Israel.

You and I both know that Elizabeth Warren is not the candidate that will bring change to US policies.

VOTE GREEN!

On Sat, Mar 28, 2015 at 12:53 PM, Lawrence Lessig <moveon-help@list.moveon.org> wrote:
I'm writing to you because I want Elizabeth Warren to run for President, and I'm asking you to join me.
Dear MoveOn member,

I'm Lawrence Lessig, a Harvard professor and the founder of MAYDAY Super PAC—the "SuperPAC to end all SuperPACs"—which many MoveOn members helped launch. I'm writing to you because I want Elizabeth Warren to run for President, and I'm asking you to join me.

The biggest problems we face—a rigged economy, climate change, the engulfing corruption of our political system by big money—have something in common: If we don't tackle them soon, we won't get another chance. 

It keeps me up at night. 

But what wakes me up in the morning is another thought: We really do have a chance to win in 2016. If we can elect leaders with the courage and independence to tackle the hard stuff—and build the mega-movement necessary to make sure they actually do it—we could see the kind of progressive sea change that brought the Gilded Age to an end more than a century ago.

But honestly? The only way I see this working is if Senator Elizabeth Warren runs for president.

That's why—as my next big project—I've joined the Run Warren Run campaign. I'll be giving a major speech in New York on April 20 to lay out the case. But right now, today, I'm asking for your help to supercharge this effort—before conventional wisdom congeals and everyone decides that the 2016 primaries are already over.

Can you chip in $3 to help fund the Run Warren Run campaign?

Yes, I'll chip in and help convince Elizabeth Warren to run for president.

Look: From everything I know, running for president is really, really hard. Most sane people would hate doing it. So I completely understand why my friend and former colleague has, to date, not shown any interest in doing so. 

It's just that the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that she should reconsider. 

We're now facing the prospect of no vigorous Democratic primary, potentially a primary season without even a single debate, generating a nominee who has not had to enlist the support of a genuine grassroots base. That's dangerous—not just for Democrats, but for our democracy. 

Elizabeth Warren would change all of that. Not just because she'd guarantee a primary where every candidate has to take a stand. But because she (and, I believe, she alone) would galvanize the kind of movement that we'll need if the next President of the United States is to have a prayer of tackling the hardest, most urgent crises of our time. 

The Run Warren Run campaign is doing something extraordinary: By organizing on the ground in the early primary states, it's keeping open the possibility of a Warren candidacy, in a moment when the primary is supposedly sewn up—and in the process forcing issues like economic inequality and political corruption to the center of the debate. But it can only keep going with our support. 

Can you chip in $3?

Yes, I'll chip in, and help the campaign to draft Elizabeth Warren keep going and growing.

I don't pretend to know whether Elizabeth Warren will ultimately decide to run. But I do know this: There's always been one thing, and one thing only, that could convince her to take on a challenge. Not money. Not power. Just one thing: the realization that her jumping into the fray was necessary to make a difference.

This is one of those moments. And the more of us that raise our hands and say we're ready to fight by her side, the more clear it will become to her that she has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to fight the central battles of our nation. Not alone. With a movement. That's our role: to show her how much energy is waiting to be unleashed if she enters the race. 

Can you chip in $3 to help with this campaign?

Yes, I'll chip in.

Thanks for all you do.

Hey, Garba, are you familiar with the Internet Movie Database website?  I'm trying to generate a little buzz about the upcoming assassination you're going to give to me in May. I was wondering if it's not too much trouble, could you post a comment on this thread?  I could monitarily make it worth your while to do it.

[ITSALLABOUTMEMAN] My secret message

 

I had posted this to facebook, but I took it down because I'm the easy going funny guy on facebook, and there is too much harsh truth in this post but here on my blog, only three people will know about it, me, my NSA case officer, and you, my only (and very valued) reader. Enjoy!

http://www.counterpunch.org/…/what-the-torture-report-miss…/

"The house of horrors detailed in the Senate report – which even in its over 500 pages doubtless only scratches the surface of the depravity of U.S. "War on Terror" tactics – has been discussed at length. But what is outlined in the report is only part of the story."

Yeah, but never mind that, what about that local sports team? I hope more of those losers don't quit because they're afraid of a little head injury now and then. They owe us! We love them!

[ITSALLABOUTMEMAN] Re: "Traitors"

 

I'm going to attach my reply to your last message on this subject, with two new observations:

1. Your pitch for money is almost comical in its stridency. "The world is going to end!  Send us money, quick!"  Come on. You'd have something to show for all the money people have sent you so far if you weren't giving it to people that have caused the problems in the first place.

2. Since I last wrote you, Obama has taken his grotesque, warped actions against Venezuela. This is the guy whose diplomatic efforts are going to save us from war?  The guy who wants to get us into wars all over the worlds?  He's absurd, and so are you.

****
You know what, Jo?  I think I like the idea of undermining the Obama  Regime's attempts to limit Iran's nuclear program, and here's why.    Iran has said they don't want nuclear weapons, and I believe them. Unlike  the lying sacks that run this country, they have a record of being straight  shooters.    However, even if they did develop nuclear weapons, how can you blame them?  Look at all countries that the US mafia government has overthrown - all  people who agreed to give up weapons of mass destruction, or never got  them.  The US would dearly love to topple the North Korean government, but  one wonders if North Korea's possession of nuclear weapons hasn't spared  them 'liberation'    If you guys were really a progressive organization (instead of being the  scum sucking neoliberal opportunists that you are) you'd be aggitating for  diplomatic efforts to limit the US and Israel's nuclear programs. One of  these countries, after all, is the only nation to ever use nuclear weapons  on human targets (civilian targets in a monstrous terrorist act, it must be  said) and the other is a cruel apartheid state.    Just my two cents worth, which is about two cents more valuable than  anything that ever comes out of moveon.org.    Too bad you guys never read your mail, because if you did, I'm just certain  you'd want to sign my petition:  http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/moveon-should-read-their

Republicans are being disrespectful, dangerous, and reckless. We have to hold them accountable.
Dear MoveOn member,

In an unprecedented move, 47 Republican senators have sent a warning letter directly to Iranian leaders, threatening to blow up any diplomatic deal negotiated by President Obama.1

This is disrespectful, dangerous, and reckless. We have to hold them accountable. And make sure not a single Democrat joins them in blowing up the president's diplomatic efforts and putting us on a path to war.

We're producing a TV ad immediately to call out this outrageous act. Please click here—right now—and make the most generous contribution you can to help us hold these 47 Republicans accountable, and make sure no Democrat joins them in undermining the president and risking a war.

"Traitors" is how the front page of today's New York Daily News described the 47 Republican senators who wrote to Iran's leaders yesterday in an effort to undermine President Obama and sabotage his diplomatic efforts to prevent yet another unnecessary war.2

And it isn't just the Daily News. Media outlets across the country are—for good reason—slamming Republican war hawks for this shocking and dangerous attempt to sabotage diplomacy and disrespect the president.

As Vox.com puts it, "The mere act of senators contacting the leaders of a foreign nation to undermine and contradict their own president is an enormous breach of protocol. But this went much further: Republicans are telling Iran, and, by extension the world, that the American president no longer has the power to conduct foreign policy, and that foreign leaders should assume Congress could revoke American pledges at any moment."3

Our small staff has already been mobilizing public support for diplomacy via petitions, member phone calls, op-eds, and more. This shocking move by Senate Republicans means we have to do even more. We're putting together a TV ad now to call out this disloyal behavior—but we need to know that we'll have the resources to go big. 

Can you make an emergency contribution to ensure Republicans pay a steep political price? This is a moment to dig deep—because the more we raise, the bigger we can go.

Yes, I'll make an emergency contribution to help get the president's back, hold Republicans accountable, and prevent another catastrophic war in the Middle East.

As you probably remember, Republicans invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to come to Washington and undermine the president last week. But this letter is arguably even worse: they are degrading our president in front of the whole world. And sending a message that the President of the United States—whoever she or he is—has no credibility.

In the days following Netanyahu's speech, we've raised over $100,000 for our work on Iran. But we didn't plan on having to respond to this. 

The radical right has gone too far too fast. Now, we've reached a make-it-or-break-it moment for the future of diplomacy and for peace in the Middle East.

So I hate to ask so strongly, but this is too important not to be direct: We need your emergency donation to get the president's back and keep America off a path to war. 

Will you chip in as much as you can afford and help turbocharge our efforts?

Yes, I'll make an emergency donation to help get the president's back, hold Republicans accountable, and prevent another catastrophic war in the Middle East.

Thanks for all you do.

Can you help us ensure that President Obama's approach to Iran, not John Boehner's or Benjamin Netanyahu's, has a chance?
Dear MoveOn member,

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed Congress at the invitation of House Speaker John Boehner. It was a breach of American protocol and an insult to President Obama. But more importantly, it was an attack on America's diplomatic efforts to limit Iran's nuclear program.

Netanyahu's influence didn't end with the speech. Immediately after the address, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell attempted to rush legislation that could derail the negotiations.1 And major newspapers across the nation had Netanyahu on their front pages this week, amplifying his assault on the diplomatic talks.2

All told, Netanyahu's presence has supercharged the war hawks' efforts to thwart diplomacy—which is why we need to supercharge our own efforts to create the space for negotiations to work.

So we're hitting the phones, planning visits to key Senate offices, and designing hard-hitting ads calling out Democratic senators by name—if we can raise the funds to do it.

Can you chip in $3 to ensure that President Obama's approach to Iran—not John Boehner's or Benjamin Netanyahu's—has a chance?

Yes, I'll chip in.

Together with allies, MoveOn members' efforts so far have helped preserve the diplomatic process. Key Democrats have halted McConnell's anti-diplomacy blitz.3 But this success amounts to only a temporary reprieve. 

Now, we have three weeks before a potential vote could derail the nuclear talks once and for all—three weeks to solidify enough Democrats behind the president that we can give diplomacy a chance.

Diplomacy is a delicate balancing act. We can't know if these talks will succeed—but we do know that we can't afford the alternative: another Mideast war. We need to give the talks the time and space to succeed.

When Netanyahu spoke to our Congress, at the invitation of Speaker John Boehner and without reaching out to the White House, he attempted to slam the door on diplomacy. Members of Congress have heard from him—now, let's make sure they hear from us.

We have three weeks to make the case for diplomacy louder and clearer than the case for endless war. 

Can you chip in $3 to support a diplomatic process and defeat the fearmongering of John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, and Benjamin Netanyahu?

Yes, I'll chip in.

Thanks for all you do.

My Kurt Cobain suicide note tee-shirt arrived today (see attached)!
Next week i'm going to Seattle, I'll try to see Courtney Love and let
her know I have this shirt, so that she and/or her people will be at
the Tropicana Reunion Show in Olympia on May 8th, so that you can
assassinate me but the blame will be on her.

Have you ever heard of Fiverr? Have you considered advertising your
unique career enhancement technique there, I think it would be a hit!

Get it, a "hit"?

Sometimes I kill myself. Oh, wait, that's your job!

[ITSALLABOUTMEMAN] My groovy new petition on MoveOn.Org [1 Attachment]

 
[Attachment(s) from matt love included below]

I'm copying the text of it here, in case they see fit to remove it suddenly. If they don't, remember to go sign it right now!

http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/moveon-should-read-their

MoveOn Should Read Their E-mail

Petition by Matt Love

To be delivered to Anna Galland, MoveOn Minister of Propaganda

MoveOn doesn't represent the interests of anybody except wealthy neoliberals, and they exist to separate you from your money to give to people who want to hurt you.
There is currently 1 signature. We need 50 signatures!

Petition Background

I keep getting all this nonsense in the mail from MoveOn, and I write back and try to set them straight and explain why the stuff they send me is nonsense, but I just get autoreplies saying, "thank you for writing us, now go soak your head." a recent example of this, I got an email from Robert Reich, so I replied:

Dear Robert Reich,

No I am not excited, at least in the way you want me to be. Yes, we progressives have a problem, a big problem, and it's a Democratic problem. The problem is that astroturf organizations like MoveOn keep urging people to send them money and put all their time and energy into supporting the people that have caused all the problems in the first place.

Take the issue that you singled out, the TPP. That has been Obama's baby from the beginning. Do you take us for idiots? Maybe MoveOn really has millions of members like they claim, but I'm betting a lot of those people are people on their mailing list that are fed up, and have wised up. People like me.

Don't give us a warmed-over mildly domestically reformist, foreign policy hawkish conformist like Elizabeth Warren. Last go round I voted for Dr. Stein, and will again if I have the chance. When MoveOn starts supporting candidates like that, I will know they are part of the solution, not part of the problem.

And you, Professor Reich; which side are you on? I've attached one of your own helpful charts. This chart makes it painfully clear that the poor have suffered more and the rich have benefited more under Obama than any other president since WWII! All presidents after Carter have been Reaganite, but Reagan's great fan Obama has been the most, advancing Reagan's cruel agenda further than any other president.

Yet MoveOn has been pitching for this phony for the past several years. What a record of slime and betrayal of progressive goals.
*****
I want them to read it, and I want them to forward it to Robert Reich to read, but I know that will never happen as things are now. Help me to change this for the better.
