  • Still Delusional After All These Years

    John F(ing) Kerry (who served in Vietnam) had this to say after a recent appearance:

    “We have put together a documented portfolio that frankly puts their lies in such a total light of absurdity and indecency, that should they ever rear their ugly heads again, we have every single ‘t’ crossed and ‘i’ dotted, and I welcome that in a sense,” “It’s a shame we weren’t able to produce all that at the time.”

    As a child, I was taught that the fastest way to defuse a lie was with the truth. How much time does it take to tell the truth, Senator?
    This fool thinks the Democratic Party will give him the nomination again. Face facts, John, you are 63 (and look 73…) and the DNC doesn’t renominate losers. They didn’t for Gore, they didn’t for Dukakis and they won’t for you. According to this story in the Boston Patriot Ledger The liberal Senator from Massachusetts went on to show his complete lack of understanding of Christianity:

    “Evangelicals care enormously about the centrality of the teachings of Jesus Christ and of the Bible,” he said. “If you lead a life and if you are involved in issues that manifest a concern for those kinds of issues, there’s no reason that one separate issue or another ought to create a wedge.”

    Uh, John, “Evangelicals” is kind of a slur the way liberals use it. One separate issue? Like say, homosexuality, and the liberal’s penchant for encouraging it? Were the Bible law, the prohibition of homosexual acts would be “Black Letter Law” as it is clearly spelled out in no uncertain terms.
    Or were you talking about abortion, John? For, while there is no biblical prohibition of that, true, the entire spirit of the Bible is counter to the ending of life out of convenience. Or maybe, the problem the good Senator has, is that little fact that bearing false witness is proscribed? Had I repeatedly lied about the troops, that one might bother me a bit too…

    Apparently, none of the Democrat candidates, not even his former running mate the Silky Pony, have asked for his endorsement. Gee, he must really be feeling the love of his party now…

    He still managed to find the time to trot out the hackneyed and, by the way, idiotic accusation that Republicans, by actually wanting to fight terrorism are exploiting the memory of 9/11. I, for one am getting very tired of that particular claim.

  • Republicans Keep Cheney Impeachment Bill Alive

    Knowing that any bill fronted by Dennis Kucinich can only make the Democrats look stupid by association, the House Republicans today stopped Democrats from killing the bill. Congressman John Shadegg (R-AZ) was credited with the idea. USA Today Blog has a play by play of the action. The Bill is H Res 333, Sponsored by little Dennis and co-sponsored by the 22 (other) biggest kooks in Washington, Sheila Jackson Lee, Maxine Waters,etc and outright traitor Jim McDermott, this bill quotes the Vice President’s comments about Saddam’s possession of WMD’s. Yeah, still singing that old song. Gee, if only Al Gore or Bill Clinton had said something about that…
    Shadegg’s plan to help the democrat’s look stupid by keeping one of their idiotic bills highlighted is just brilliant. Someone buy that man a beer!

  • Rosie O’Donnell May Join MSNBC–Kooks Watch TV Too…

    The NY Times reports that Rosie O’Donnell is in talks and may soon have her own primetime show on MSNBC. Apparently MSNBC wants to be known as the network of the kook fringe.

    Her show would replace “Live with Dan Abrams,” a relatively low-rated program that only recently replaced “Scarborough Country,” which was also little-watched.

    Little watched? That ought to be the motto of the network…
    Inside Cable News shows they don’t do well in the ratings at all…
    549k is hardly challenging to Fox News’ 1.4 MILLION viewers…
    As a matter of fact the vaunted NY Times has another
    article only one day after the first, touting O’Donnell, that claims bashing the Bush admin helps MSNBC’s ratings, well… something had to, although is appealing to the likes of Kos readers and DUmmies really that great a victory? Is “We Cater to Kooks” their new rallying cry? I guess it is, and that is pretty sad when you think about it.
    —UPDATE—
    The fat one announces on her blog, in her typical illiterate fashion, that opening her big mouth blew the deal with MSNBC. I’m of two minds on this one, I want to point at the big ole Kook and laugh, but, at the same time, it would have been fun to watch her drag MSNBC (farther) down.

  • Another Day, Another FAKE Hate Crime

    A Jewish George Washington University student complained of a half dozen swastikas being drawn on her dorm room door. The campus cops put in a hidden camera and caught the perp.
    Yes, she was drawing the swastikas on her own door. Why is this not surprising?
    NBC4 has the rest.

  • SGT Dan Powers is a Lucky Man

    CNN has the fascinating story of Sgt Dan Powers of Fort Bragg’s 118th MP Company, who while investigating an explosion in a Baghdad neighborhood was stabbed in the head with a NINE INCH KNIFE. His fellow soldiers rushed him back to their base from where he was rushed to a top notch hospital in Balad. LTC Dr Teff an Army neurosurgeon, operated on Powers with a long LONG distance assist from vascular surgeon LTC Rocco Armonda who watched the procedure in real time on his laptop while pulled over to the side of a highway.
    SGT Powers was flown to Bethesda where further surgery was performed, leaving him in a drug induced coma for four long days, with doctors concerned he would awaken blind or with brain damage. Remarkably, he only had a little difficulty with balance. Now at home in North Carolina

    Powers says he still gets pretty bad headaches, but that a couple of aspirin makes them go away.

    Doctors will perform another surgery in January, Powers says he hopes to return to his job as squad leader in the spring.

    Wow! SGT Powers is a VERY lucky man.

  • You Say That Like it is A BAD Thing…

    According to CNN Senator Obama has missed 80% of Senate votes in the past two months and the other Democrat candidates have also missed a bunch, with Mrs Clinton missing 63% and Joe Biden missing 68%.
    You know what? FINE BY ME. Votes they miss are less likely to raise taxes, pass idiotic laws or otherwise endanger the country or the world. If we could only get MORE democrats to run for the Presidency, we could all be safe…

  • Feminist (Who works on Edwards’ Campaign) Slams Hillary

    How appropriate is it that Kate Michelman works for the most feminine of Democratic candidates?

    “But when she’s challenged, when legitimate questions are asked, questions she should be prepared to answer and discuss, she is just as quick to raise the white flag and look for a change in the rules,” Michelman said. “It’s trying to have it both ways.”

    “It is not presidential,” Michelman said, adding that women “know better than to use our gender as a shield when the questions get too hot.”

    Thus, we see the problem with movements which claim to want equality. Aside from the civil rights movement of the sixties, none of those who pretend to the same goal actually share that goal. Sure, there are some women who only want to be treated equally, but they are the women that are truly strong enough to stand in the face of real adversity with out flinching. Hillary Clinton doesn’t want to be treated the same as all the other (male) candidates, she wants to be treated as if she is better somehow. This isn’t new and it certainly isn’t news, even if it is reported as such.

    Being equal doesn’t infer upon a group immunity to the slings and arrows suffered by those to whom they were once considered inferior. True equals are strong enough to take the same slings and arrows as a matter of course, and here’s the important part, without whining.

    Phil Singer, spokesman for the Clinton campaign, said Saturday that Edwards, who represented North Carolina, and the other candidates were fabricating an issue out of desperation.

    “The other candidates aren’t going after Sen. Clinton because she’s a woman, they’re going after her because she’s leading in the polls,”

    Which would be great, were she leading by virtue of her ideas or charisma, that, however, is simply not the case. Mrs Clinton even claims thirty some years of experience in politics. Standing by your man may be admirable, but, it isn’t the same as doing the work yourself. Would anyone be likely to trust an electrician’s wife to rewire their home? I don’t think so. Proximity is not experience.

  • Teacher has Sex with Student, Inadvertently Deports Him

    The Sixth Grade Math teacher/basketball coach who fled from Nebraska to Mexico with her 13 yr old lover, managed to do something the federal government is hard pressed to do: she deported an illegal alien. HA!

    As an undocumented migrant, Rodriguez apparently will not be allowed to return to the United States.

    Stay tuned, the activists are certainly going to be all over this.
