No “Justice” at Bush DOJ

June 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Is there no end to it? Those who, just a couple of years ago, seemed to be the most paranoid of the far left are turning out not to be paranoid at all, but actually prescient. One by one, the parade of Bush administration crimes are coming to light. The sheer extent [...]

Finally! A James Dobson I can get behind!

June 24th, 2008 · No Comments

I’ve never been able to muster much good feeling for the slimy, hateful puppy-beating, possibly pedophilic reprobate, but if he’s going to encourage his addlepated followers not to vote for John McCain and, in fact, not to vote at all for either candidate for President in November, that’s a James Dobson that works for me.
Here [...]

The FISA surrender went so well, the House has decided to just give up governing altogether

June 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

It was so easy!  Go along to get along, vote for capitulation and call it compromise.  Piece of cake!  In fact, all that work involved in giving a rat’s ass and fighting the good fight and protecting and defending the Constitution seems silly in retrospect.  Just show up, vote whatever’s easy and then forget about [...]

Why would any country that drinks so much have occasion to rack up frequent flier miles on an enema squirchy thing in the first place, much less enough to inspire a monument to it????????

MOSCOW - A monument to the enema, a procedure many people would rather not think about, has been unveiled at a spa [...]

FBI seeks moles to spy on vegan potlucks???!!!??? Well, they better bring something good to eat.

Can this be true?  Are the Keystone Kops running the FBI???!!??
Having been vegan for many years and having attended quite a few of these things, let me tell you the conversation is about food, food, and food.  The most subversive thing I ever heard was the suggestion to try lentil soup made without garlic.  Heresy, [...]

The mantra for business used to be “create a need and then fill it.” But if you can get customers to ante up for both the problem and the solution, oh baby!

If you’re wandering about DC this week, watch out for Very Serious People, dressed in government drag, walking into traffic while all their attention is fixed on a scrap of paper.
These are Republicans who ride the tiger of the Religious Wrong Right and who are studying the 10 Commandments, skeered silly they’ll fall into the [...]

Implausible Deniability

May 31st, 2006 · 1 Comment

George Bush didn’t know anything about the slaughter of innocent civilians, including small children, at Haditha until months later when a reporter from Time asked him about it.
It’s hard to be surprised at this claim. The man has made a career of being out of the loop when anything potentially embarrassing was going on.
He [...]

Regrets, I’ve had a few
But then again
Too few to mention
My big, fat Texas mouth
Went running wild
But I brooked no dissension
But in an unusual admission of a personal mistake, Mr. Bush said he regretted challenging insurgents in Iraq to “bring it on” in 2003, and said the same about his statement that he wanted Osama bin [...]

Latest Dirty Political Trick - WikiRoving

April 29th, 2006 · 3 Comments

Democratic Senator Robert Byrd has been WikiRoved. So has Democratic Rep Jim Marshall.
It’s the latest - and arguably the most juvenile - trick to come out of the GOP’s bottomless bag. So contemptibly childish, it needs a new word. We hereby coin “WikiRove.”

To stain or attempt to ridicule, defame, or destroy the [...]
