Those Decepticon Republicans

 Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons

f

The Decepticons are usually depicted as the antagonists in the fictional universes of the Transformers toyline , and related comics and cartoons, and the enemies of the Autobots^. The villains take many forms, and have many different origins and stories across the numerous different Transformers media.  In almost all incarnations, they are led by Megatron.

They are typically represented by the purple facial insignia they all wear. Decepticons have red eyes, while Autobots have blue eyes.

The GOP congress has been taken over by Decipticons who have been programmed to seek ideological solutions to America's problems.

First, the Bush recession that started in December 2007 was caused by private enterprise and related deregulation efforts mainly pushed by the GOP. Yes, there was some culpability on the part of Blue Dogs and President Clinton. but the Bush administration led us into the Great Recession.


The facts are indisputable. Certainly Republicans are entitled to their own opinion, but as Laurence O'Donnell has stated, they are not entitled to their owns facts. Facts are facts regardless of the distortions one will find on Conservapedia, Fox News or Talk Radio.

Does Social Security or Medicare have anything to do with the economic downturn? Not really, most economists believe the excess defense spending on wars since world War 2 has caused most of the deficit.

The government has actually used excess Social Security funds to fund government programs for years.

Social Security is easy to fix, and most of the funding shortfalls relate to the regressive nature of the FICA part of the Social Security tax.

Do government workers have anything to do with the recession. Again, the GOP is trying to scapegoat government workers whose jobs  have nothing to do with the recession.

FactCheck looked into government pay and found that government workers were not making twice what their corporate counterparts make. They also found out that government workers are three times as educated as their corporate counterparts.

Tweaking Social Security, Medicare or government worker's salaries and benefits won't pull us out of the Great Recession. These are just Decepticon anti-government tactics.

The Democratic Autobots are much more honest about the real nature of America's economic problems.

Movie Review--Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has black stereotypical robots

Rating: */*****

I have always looked at the Transformers series as what it was originally: a cartoon. I watched one of the movies and almost got vertigo. As a technical person I found the break-neck movement of the Autobots and the evil Decepticons to be implausible. I also found the filtered and modulated sound studio voices of the robots to be laughable.

I first saw Michale Bay in a Verizon FIOS commercial. I instantly disliked him because he came across as ego-maniacal. As Sara Stewart has stated, the only thing bigger than 'TRANSFORMERS' is director Michale Bay's conceit.

Bay has a limited artistic vision artistic vision of fireballs, fast action transforming and patriotic anthems. He must be the one who put the 'nasty' in NASCAR. Michael Bay is a Hollywood hack.

After being rejected by USC and other notable film schools, he opted to study film at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Michael Bay's movies Armageddon and Pearl Harbor were nominated for worst pictures in the Golden Raspberry Awards 1998 and 2001, Bay was also nominated for worst director. Bay has won four MTV Movie Awards which is better than nothing.

Sara Stewart has described Bay as “the standard-bearer for the lowering of standards, the go-to guy for anyone wringing his hands about what's wrong with movies today.”

Bay was hired by Steven Spielberg who should have exercised some oversight on the latest incarnation of the Transformer Series. Take a look at two of the characters: Skids and Mudflap.

Skids and Mudflap, twin robots who run the roads as compact Chevys and talk in Ebonics. Neither can read. Of course, one has a gold tooth.

These Autobots and are intended to provide comic relief. They bring to mind the stereotypes of Jar Jar Binks, the mis-speaking alien from "Star Wars: Episode I : The Phantom Menace.” Binks had some sort of a Caribbean Island accent.

Wall Street Journal film critic Joe Morgenstern described Binks in 1999 as a "Rastafarian Stephan Fetchit." AP Movie Critic Christy Lemire, calls Skids and Mudflap "Jar Jar Binks in car form."

Director Michale Bay insists that his hip hop 'bots are just good clean fun.
"We're just putting more personality in," Bay said. "I don't know if it's stereotypes; they are robots, by the way.

Yes, but what is the point of ghetto bots?

TV actor Reno Wilson, who is black, voices Mudflap. Tom Kenny, is a the white actor who is the voice of SpongeBob SquarePants. He provides Skid's voice.

This movie will probably be popular with white supremacy groups and the Klan with its patriotic themes and black stereotypes. I would imagine Paramount would be smart to market it to the red neck NASCAR crowd as well. I can also imagine a giant Decepticon Monster Truck.

I suspect Paramount knows they have a turkey on their hands. The studio got a poorly worded note from Michale Bay attacking their promotional campaign. So far most of the promotion has centered around Megan Fox's derrière and private life.

Bay said, “I still run into so many people even this weekend with kids that ask ‘is that movie coming out this year?'”

If you are politically progressive, this is a movie you and your family will will want to avoid.
