Transcription Error Mistakenly Attributes Profanity To Dalai Lama

 

 

www.huffingtonpost.com

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The Dalai Lama didn't curse at a Brown University event, the college swears – even if the closed captioning said differently. A closing comment Wednesday by the Dalai Lama was mistaken for a profanity by the person transcribing his remarks for closed captioning at a speech ...

9 Reasons A Cat Should Be President

Politicians can learn a great deal from animals. Just ask me, Sneaky Pie, a cat, who is running for president. Having canvassed other cats, dogs, horses, domestic animals and some wild ones, I offer this advice.


Cats and dogs believe politicians are like cemetery caregivers, they are on top of everyone but nobody listens.


At this point, we animals would settle for competent mediocrity. In 2012 the so called "Woman Question," named by Lenin, has once again provoked various reactions. Like Freud the two political parties ask, "What do women want?" Animals know the answer: "Ask one woman at a time."


All creatures tread across the rubble of ruined civilizations. The trick is to keep moving. No animal ever goes about dispensing shallow compassion. We ask the candidates to please give this up. Put a lock on Congress's purse. Animals live within the dictates of Nature. Government needs to learn to do this, too.


He that denies the cat skimmed milk must give the mouse cream. Produce the pumpkins. The pies will follow. All animals, in their environments, know this. Regarding enemies, you never know the length of a snake until its dead. Snakes hide. Be careful.


One cat at the hole and ten thousand mice dare not come out. Everyone is an exception to at least one rule. Could you pass legislation to control, or in double speak, protect, all cats? Why would you think you can do this to humans? Party platforms are guaranteed to cure insomnia.


Democrats don't understand money. Republicans don't understand people. It's a mess.


Political elections are not life and death. If you want life and death, be a doctor. A turtle only makes progress when he sticks his neck out. Humans are exactly the same. You've never seen a horse parked in front of a psychiatrist's office. You might ask yourself why. You've not seen dogs and cats there also. We know we are animals. Humans think they are above it, denying their animal natures.

Sickness follows.


Stupidity is not evil but both may produce the same result. Just as a horse with a bad rider. Fix the problem. Not the blame. A cat catches mice. A herding dog chases off predators. They do their job. Congressmen need to do theirs.


Vice President Joseph Biden is like Marlene Dietrich always entertaining the troops. So far Paul Ryan hasn't proved entertaining. There's still time. He needs a dog.


I've met irresponsible people but never irresponsible cats. There are some United States citizens you couldn't drive into church with a vial of anthrax. Let them be.


We animals live life in all its glorious uncertainty. Why do politicians think they can control events? When in doubt think of the drought.


Like a dog playing catch who can't find the ball, I ask. "If all is not lost, where is it?"


No animal would ever submit to plastic surgery as politicians are doing. It doesn't make them look younger it just makes their eyes look funny. You could be so ugly you could make my eyes water, I'm not voting for your face. I'm voting for leadership. Think of Lincoln. And I advise humans, if you are marrying someone who has had plastic surgery and you intend to have children you'd better see the before photos.


One man's superstition is another man's religion. Cats feel the reason people believe Jesus rose from the dead is they don't have nine lives. Dogs don't care. Horses would never dream of discussing matters of faith and they are deeply spiritual animals.


No animal would believe the politician's sacred motto: I can't always do it the hard way but I can try.
Your Favorite Americat,


Sneaky Pie


Check out these 9 reasons why a cat would make the best president:
Rita Mae Brown is the author of Sneaky Pie for President [Bantam, $26.00].

>>> Go to the site to see the slideshow which is MORE THAN WORTH THE TROUBLE OF DOING SO!!!:

• Humans have no desire to compromise

  Each year, Sneaky observes the humans making a bigger mess of life for themselves and everyone else. Worse, they have no desire to compromise, so the problems fester and grow larger. Sneaky, aghast at this stupidity, decides to take matters into her own paws – and begins to campaign for President.

• The human constitution is narrow-minded

  Sneaky Pie’s complaint on the Constitution: “'When in the Course of human events...' There’s the fatal flaw right there! Human. The Declaration of Independence limits itself to a species that has weak senses and is highly irrational.”

• Pets respect population control

  There is no human heat cycle... they have no sense. They haven’t a clue when it will be a good harvest or bad. They can’t monitor their breeding, and they’ll breed beyond the water supply, too. They can’t help it.

• Dogs and cats don’t have hormones influencing their decisions

  Says Tally, Sneaky Pie’s Jack Russell friend: “Neuter the humans who want to run for public office.” “Excellent idea!” Sneaky agreed. “It will focus the men and calm the women. You are so right, Tally. I will definitely add that to my campaign platform: Spay or neuter your pols.”

• Politicians are too obsessed with dollar signs

  Money motivates humans. It’s a serious defect. Profit is all too often their god. If I’m going to be an effective candidate, I need to prove how much economic value [animals] have.

• Human elections are full of hate

  A Downy Woodpecker Sneaky Pie encounters describes the election: "A bunch of people say hateful things about one another and then promise the moon to other people, who give the money. Whoever gets elected gets to live in a fancy house. They can eat all the seeds they want. It happens every few years, and humans fall for it every time."

• Pets don’t waste money on looks

  Billions are spent annually by humans thinking they can make themselves look younger. Billions of dollars to look pretty, and it’s not just women. Men, too. There’s plastic surgery, thousands of creams and potions. Stuff they have shot into the skin, even their lips. But our age doesn’t show so quickly. Everyone looks good in fur.

• Pets pay more attention to their surroundings

  Cyril, a grey fox, on how humans should pay more attention to their surroundings: “I can be walking behind one and they never know, even if there’s a group of them … humans are so wrapped up in whatever they’re talking about they miss everything around them. I suspect it’s a sad life.”

• Humans are wasteful spenders

  Sneaky Pie on the wasteful spending each party dedicates to campaigning:“The Republican candidates have already blown millions, and the president will squander millions upon millions to get reelected. The estimated on what the campaign eventually will cost are over one billion dollars. The president spends as much time raising money for his reelection as he does on the huge difficulties facing our country. Everyone accepts it, says that’s just the way the system works.”
