[Marxism-Thaxis] Stalin Wasn't Stallin'

Stalin Wasn't Stallin'



Stalin Wasn't Stallin'

Stalin wasn't stallin'
When he to1d the beast of Berlin
That they'd never rest contented
Til they had driven him from the land
So he called the Yanks and English
And proceeded to extinguish
The Fuhrer and his vermin
This is how it all began

Now the Devil he was reading
In the good book one day
How the lord created Adam
To walk the righteous way
And it made the Devil jealous
He turned green up to his horns
And he swore by things unholy
That he'd make one of his own

So he packed two suitcases
Full of grief and misery
And he caught the midnight special
Going down to Germany
Then he mixed his lies and hatred
With fire and brimstone
Then the devil sat upon it
That's how Adolf was born

Now Adolf got the notion
That he was the master race
And he swore he'd bring new order
And put mankind in it,s place!
So he set his scheme in motion
And he was winning everywhere
Until he up and got the notion
For to kick that Russian bear

Yes he kicked that noble Russian
But it wasn't very long
Before Adolf got suspicious
The he had done something wrong
Cause that bear grabbed the Fuhrer
And gave him an awful fright
Seventeen months he scrapped the Fuhrer
Tooth and claw, day and night

Then that bear smacked the Fuhrer
With a mighty armored paw
And Adolf broke all records
Running backward towards Krakaw
The Goebbels sent a message
To the people everywhere
That if they couldn't hit the Fuhrer
Go down hit that Russian bear

(repeat verse I )

Note: Spoken (or sermonized) against a rhythm back-up
Recorded originally by the Golden Gate Quartet during WWII, when
 Stalin was a Good Guy. Covered more recently by Robert Wyatt,
 Nothing Can Stop Us.

Stoop down, baby
Let your daddy see
Stoop down, baby
Let your daddy see
You've got something down there, baby
Worryin' the hell out of me

What did the frog say to the eel?
The more you wiggle, child, the better it feels
Stoop down, baby,
Let your daddy see
You've got something down there, baby
Worryin' the hell out of me

Two old maids they're
Layin' in a bed
One rolled over, man
And this is what she said
She said, Wake up, old maid,
Don't sleep so damn sound
You 'member what you promised
When you first laid down?
Stoop down, baby
Let your daddy see
You've got something down there, baby,
Worryin' the hell out of me
Two old maids they're
Layin' in the sand
One rolled over and said
I wish you was a man.
She said, No, no, child
I ain't no man, but
keep still, baby, I'll do the best I can.
Stoop down, baby
Let your daddy see
You've got something down there, baby
Worryin' the hell out of me

Hold it, hold up, hold up, hold it, hold it, hold!
Geez, man
Hmmm...
There's a cat in there
Call him Jake
They say he's stooped down
Longer than a python snake
Stoop down, baby
***!
Down there, baby
Worryin' the hell out of me

Stoop down, baby
Stoop down, baby
Stoop down, baby
I just want you to, I just want you to
Stoop down
Stoop down, baby
Let your daddy see

Rev. Brian Jordan rips Central Labor Council President
Jack Ahern on salary, demands resignation
BY BRIAN KATES
Nov. 27 2010
New York Daily News

.html

A prominent Catholic priest has demanded a powerful
union boss resign for taking a 100% pay hike when
thousands of New Yorkers are jobless.

The Rev. Brian Jordan, famed for his ministry to Ground
Zero workers, blasted New York City Central Labor
Council President Jack Ahern for pumping up his income
to more than $300,000.

Ahern did it by accepting a raise from $40,000 to
$80,000 for his part-time job with the labor council,
an umbrella group for 400 unions representing 1.3
million workers.

The hike came on top of a six-figure salary from
Operating Engineers Local 30, which he's led since
1996.

Ahern, who talked of putting people over profits at a
labor rally on Wall St. last April, earned $247,978
from the local last year, records show.

Thousands upon thousands of union workers are out of
work and you as a leading figure in the N.Y.C. labor
movement have the audacity to demand a 100% increase in
pay, Jordan wrote to Ahern. Shame on you!

With the citywide jobless rate at 9.2% and nearly
365,000 New Yorkers in the jobless line, Jordan called
on Ahern to submit your resignation immediately.

Back Door Santa is a song written by Clarence Carter in
collaboration with Marcus Daniel, and originally performed by Carter.
It was released on a compilation album Soul Christmas in 1968. The
track is in a 12-bar blues format.

The lyrics are sexually suggestive, not having much to do with
Christmas as a holiday. Run-D.M.C. sampled the song for Christmas in
Hollis.

In late December 2005, The Black Crowes released a free download
version of this song, complete with a horn section. This track can be
heard in the film Mission: Impossible III.

The Australian band Jet has also covered this song. It is available on
their Japanese-only Rare Tracks compilation album.

It was also performed by Bon Jovi and released on the A Very Special
Christmas compilation album produced to benefit the Special Olympics.
For unknown reasons, Back Door Santa was replaced on later pressings
of the first A Very Special Christmas with the song I Wish Every
Day Could Be Like Christmas also performed by Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi
later released the track along with two other Christmas themed songs
on the single for Please Come Home for Christmas

In 2008, Elliott Yamin included a cover of the song in his Christmas
album My Kind of Hoiday

The song also appeared on the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother.

2010-12-01 Thread Ralph Dumain
I used to have to wait to catch this on my local blues program every 
December: sometimes I'd hear it, some years I'd miss it. But thanks to 
YouTube, it can be Xmas every day. (I detest Xmas, though.) The key to 
the song is in this verse:

i ain't like the old saint nick, he don't come but once a year . . .

When I used to sing it, the punchline would be . . .

I'm back door Santa, I come every time you're here.

The real proletariat is the one stooping down. OK. 
 
Me. . . . man, I have always enjoyed looking up to see bottom. I guess this 
 
is beneath the underclass. 
 
My cash flow was cool but my mind has always been in poverty and on  the  
bottom brother. 
 
Hey  . . . I hit 10.5 on the glossary and yes, it is a  propaganda  tract. 
I

Merry Christmas Baby. 
 
I always loved the way baby can be non gender and/or gender depending  on 
 
the specific context and tonal quality of the voice.

[Marxism-Thaxis] At The Christmas Ball

At The Christmas Ball


soundclip

by Fred Longshaw
recording of November 18 1925, New York City
from The Complete Recordings, Vol. 2 (1924-1925) (Columbia/Legacy
C2K-47471), copyright notice

Hey Bessie it's Christmas here
Here! Here! Hurray for Christmas

Christmas comes but once a year, and to me it brings good cheer,
and to everyone who likes wine and beer
Happy New Year is after that, happy I'll be, that is a fact
That is why I like to hear, folks I say that Christmas is here

Christmas bells will ring real soon, even in the afternoon
There'll be no chimes shall ring at the Christmas Ball
Everyone must watch their step, or they will loose their rep1
Everybody full of fare at the Christmas Ball

(Excellent Joe Smith solo)

Grab your partner one an' all, keep on dancing 'round the hall
Then there's no one to fall, don't you dare to strut
If your partner don't act fair, don't worry there's some more over there
Seekin' a chance everywhere at the Christmas Ball

Commodifying Nature in an Age of Climate Change

By Nnimmo Bassey
Friends of the Earth International
November 29, 2010

http://www.foei.org/en/blog/commodifying-nature-in-an-age-of-climate-change

For about two weeks, starting today, the world will be locked
into another session of negotiations on how to tackle climate
change. The conference, to be held in Cancun, Mexico, has
drawn less excitement than its predecessor held in
Copenhagen, Denmark, a year ago.

The excitement of Copenhagen was partly driven by the false
information that circulated that the Kyoto Protocol was
ending at that meeting. Though there were serious, but failed
efforts, made at that conference to lay the protocol to rest,
its first period actually ends in 2012, while a second
commitment period will be entered into as soon as the first
period elapses.

But why would anyone want to kill the protocol and why should
it be sustained? The Kyoto Protocol is seen by some as the
only legally binding instrument to which the industrialised
and highly polluting nations can be made to commit to cutting
emissions at source. From this perspective, when countries
fight to abolish the protocol, they are simply trying to
avoid making any real commitment to tackling climate change.
Leave it to the market?

One problem with the workings of the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the ongoing
negotiations is that it bases a chunk of its reasoning and
framings on the market logic. This follows the path created
by the mindset that has built a vicious paradigm of disaster
capitalism, in which tragedy is seen as opportunity for
profit. What do we mean by this?

Rather than take steps to curtail emissions of greenhouse
gases responsible for global warming, some people are busy
devising ways of making every item of nature a commodity
placed at the altar of the market. Through this, everything
is being assigned a value and many others are privatised in
addition.

What makes this offensive is firstly that you cannot place a
price on nature, on life. Secondly, speculators are hyping
the utility of the carbon market as a means of fighting
climate change. Some of the ways this manifests is through
the carbon offsetting projects by which polluters in the
industrialised countries continue to pollute, on the
calculation that their emissions are being compensated for
elsewhere.

As Friends of the Earth International stated in a recent
media advisory, Carbon trading does not lead to real
emissions reductions. It is a dangerous distraction from real
action to address the structural causes of climate change,
such as over-consumption. Developed countries should
radically cut their carbon emissions through real change at
home, not by buying offsets from other countries. Carbon
offsetting has no benefits for the climate or for developing
countries - it only benefits developed countries, private
investors, and major polluters who want to continue business
as usual.

Cancun will obviously be crawling with carbon speculators and
traders, as was the case in Copenhagen. And they have good
reasons to be there. They will be there because policy makers
on both sides of the divide see benefits in the schemes, even
though the so-called benefits are pecuniary and are actually
harmful to Mother Earth. But as far as the money enters the
pockets of some poor countries, the rich countries can go on
polluting, having paid their penance. Not just money alone

The world appears deaf to the need for real actions to curb
climate change, and the focus remains on money. In fact,
while many of the items of the Cancun agenda have stalled,
with regard to reduction of carbon emissions in the
industralised nations, there is no shortage of proposals on
how carbon markets can be brought in to give appearance of
action.

Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD)
is one of such schemes in the scheme. Quick progress is being
made on REDD and already, talks are advancing on other
variants of the scheme. Indigenous and forest community
people are opposed to REDD and object to its implementation,
as attention is being focused on forests merely as carbon
stocks for mercantile purposes. Significantly, many see REDD
as not seeking to stop deforestation, but merely to reduce
it.

It is also argued that that any reduced deforestation may not
be sustained, as deforesters may just shift to another forest
or zone to continue with their activities. In other words,
REDD is a pretty fiction that may pump money into the pockets
of some countries and corporations, but will marginalise
forest peoples and will not help to fight climate change. The
attraction, as critics have said, is that if this mechanism
is linked to the carbon market, it will allow developed
countries pay money to REDD-projects that preserve forests in
developing countries, and in return receive carbon credits -
buying the right to pollute.

There will also be strident rejection of any role at all for

 Somewhere, I have a copy of Merry Christmas Baby by Ollie, former  lead
 singer of the Temptations. One of the greats is on the guitar  but I
 forget
 their name at the moment.

 The real proletariat is the one stooping down. OK.

 Me. . . . man, I have always enjoyed looking up to see bottom. I guess this

 is beneath the underclass.

 My cash flow was cool but my mind has always been in poverty and on  the
 bottom brother.

 Hey  . . . I hit 10.5 on the glossary and yes, it is a  propaganda  tract.
 I
 am not an original thinker or writer.

 Merry Christmas Baby.

 I always loved the way baby can be non gender and/or gender depending  on

 the specific context and tonal quality of the voice.

 Victory to the proletariat on the bottom, top, and beneath the  underclass.

 PS. Ralph has his thang set when you respond to his writing it goes to
 him as an individual instead of the list. To me that is fucked up. Change
