More Neocon Crap

GOP: 'Liberals' Will Ban Bible (via cnn)

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Republican National Committee acknowledged this week that it distributed campaign literature in West Virginia and Arkansas warning voters that liberals want to ban the Bible.

The literature claims that ``the liberal agenda includes removing 'under God' from the Pledge of Allegiance'' and shows a Bible with the word ``BANNED'' across it. It also shows a photo of a man, on his knees, placing a ring on the hand of another man with the word ``ALLOWED,'' a reference to same-sex marriage.
The mailing tells people to ``vote Republican to protect our families'' and defeat the ``liberal agenda.''

Sigh, must be payback for that Dan Rather/CBS crap.

Look Who Has Rights That I Don't

S.Africa gays, lesbians march to celebrate freedom

South Africa's post-apartheid constitution was the first in the world to recognise the rights of gays, and same-sex couples are now allowed to adopt children and be included in their partners' wills.

What a bunch of heathens, those South Africans, huh? Godless, hell-bound heathens.

Lucky ducks.

Hey, Fatso!

Report: Obese kids costs schools millions (via msnbc.com)

'"One study found that severely overweight students miss, on average, one day per month or nine days per year, and that absenteeism rates among these students are six times higher than for their non-overweight peers,” the report reads."

"Hey, Fatty!" (Always the exclaimation point). "You're a pig!" "How'd you get so FAT?" "Looks like someone started you on fire and your mom tried to put you out with FOOD." "Fat slob!" "Porky!" "Hey, JUMBO!" "Wassa matter, piglet?" "Oink, oink, snort, snort." "Why don't you just stop eating you big, fat, disgusting PIG?!" "Gluttony is a sin, my child."

Yeah. Us fat kids missed a LOT of school. 'Cause we were sick from being fat. Yeah, that's it.

Kerry's "Top 10 Bush Tax Proposals" (via cnn.com)

10. No estate tax for families with at least two U.S. presidents.

9. W-2 Form is now Dubya-2 Form.

8. Under the simplified tax code, your refund check goes directly to Halliburton.

7. The reduced earned income tax credit is so unfair, it just makes me want to tear out my lustrous, finely groomed hair.

6. Attorney General (John) Ashcroft gets to write off the entire U.S. Constitution.

5. Texas Rangers can take a business loss for trading Sammy Sosa.

4. Eliminate all income taxes; just ask Teresa (Heinz Kerry) to cover the whole damn thing.

3. Cheney can claim Bush as a dependent.

2. Hundred-dollar penalty if you pronounce it "nuclear" instead of "nucular."

1. George W. Bush gets a deduction for mortgaging our entire future.

She's Fourth! No, She's Third! No, She Won!

(at least she thinks so) 

Mirabella finally gets her cycling medal

“I am very excited, but I am disappointed that I didn’t get a medal ceremony, and that I didn’t get to ride around the velodrome with the American flag,” Mirabella said to friends and relatives in an e-mail obtained by The Associated Press. “It is kind of a bummer that the Colombian stole those moments from me.”

Frankly, Erin, I always thought only the gold medal winner had the earned right to circle the track with their flag.

Holy Moses

Madonna honors Jewish sage (via cnn.com)

Look. I have to say this. I just can't stop myself. Fan of 80's music from 'way back. Dancing when Madonna was still a material girl. Holidaayee. Celebrayeet and all that.

Does anybody REALLY care what she thinks about religion? Er, I mean, Kaballah? Okay, anything?

I'm not so sure that I'd want my child reading a book written by the woman who "...didn't know we couldn't talk about sex."

Maddy, please. Take off the red string. Spit out the Blahblahblah water. Stop being such a sucker. You used to be so real in your phony-ness. Now you just seem a little desperate and singed around the edges.

Like Soul to Soul said: "Back to life, back to reality."

Compare and Contrast

Caroline Kennedy/The Bush Twins

 Yep. You can do the same with Amy Carter/The Bush Twins (they have their own moniker!) or Chelsea Clinton/The Bush Twins.

But this is just mean. It's all about how they end up, not how they start out.

Oh yeah, I forgot...

Yet Another Example that our President is a Moron

Bush 'pleased with the progress' in Iraq (via cnn.com)

Of course he's pleased. He doesn't have any sons (or daughters with enough huevos) to go over there themselves and get kidnapped or blown up for American Freedom.

Pleased? Please.

Vomit! Er, I Mean, Ralph!

Florida Supreme Court Puts Nader on Ballot (via nytimes.com)

That's right. It's official. Florida, is screwing up the Presidential election...again.

Third-party candidate, indeed. Just what does Ralph Nader believe in, anyway? I've never seen or heard. If that's a party, it's an awfully (and I mean awfully) quiet one.

Can I just quote BTVS's Harmony here? "MINIONS!"
