More fun in France

Ahhh Socialists.... In their misdirected attempt to create job security all they've done is make it so that employers are scared to hire anyone. The same can be said here in America where affirmative action is backfiring the same way.

Amazingly the French government seems to be trying to change things, a little. It's still government meddling in free enterprise, but I guess its a step in some kind of correct direction. Hell, the French Parliament and the French President have stood up to the protests by those spoiled students and the government is kind of, sort of, moving forward with the original plan.

You're Fired

Sin Francisco.

Well the "celebrate diversity" crowd was at it again this past weekend in San Francisco. A Christian organization, who stands for reaching out to youth and showing them there are solutions to life other than the "do it if it feels good" message that is preached by so many cultural figure heads and media pipes, was in San Francisco. OH MY? CHRISTIANS? IN SAN FRANCISCO? HEAVEN FORBID!! GET OUT THERE AND PROTEST!!

If you've ever wanted to read a biased report, here it is, from my favorite rag The SF Chronicle:

Stop those Nazis

Only in such a "progressive" city would those that stand for Love be hated so.

And why is the city council getting involved? This place is rampant with human feces and homeless, yet they spend so much time issuing useless symbolic statements and laws like: "Christians out!", "Military out!", "Guns out!". All 3 of which have been official SF Government stances this past year.

I hope some of you out there got to see South Park on Wednesday. Here's a clip.

And here's the web site of the Christian organization: Battle Cry

The Party That Is Controlled By "Group Think"

The Republicans don't always agree with one another. The latest esxamples of that is the illegal immigration bill and the Dubai Ports deal, but they also don't eat their young when disagreements occur. This really can't be said about the opposition party. I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I am going to. When it comes to the War in Iraq, the Democrats are in total disarray.

This party is so scared of its "Kook Base" that representatives are afraid to come forward if they support this war. Zel Miller is good example of what happens to them if they do. And it doesn't stop with him. We all remember how Curly Joe Sheehan threatened to challenge Feinstein for supporting The Presidents war policies and there was Susan Sarandon's comment about how Hillary Clinton was "A Great Disappointment" because of Clinton's initial vote and support for the war. (Clinton was also booed during a speech she gave at some college, but I can't remember the details. I do know that her war stance was the reason for the ruckus) Now we have Leiberman

"Sen. Joe Lieberman’s strong stand on national security has so rankled some
fellow Democrats that they actually booed him at a political dinner on Thursday
night."

You have got to be kidding me. McCain has rankled many a Republicans feathers, but is he booed at political dinners? Not that I know of.

Money Well Earned.

The wussification goes on.

Once Again, MSM Bias

The Associated Press has shown once again "Main Stream Media bias" and it is shocking. With serious issues such as the War, Wiretapping, Illegal immigration, Iran etc. One would think that any respectable journalist would try their hardest to get every crumb of detail, every morsel of truth, in order to tell the whole story...but alas, they insist on pushing their own agenda and only publishing information that supports that agenda. GET BUSH!

A judge who co-authored FISA, said

"...the president was duly authorized under the Constitution to order the
wiretapping of suspected terrorists - without getting a warrant from the
FISA Court."

Judge Allan Kornblum went onto say

"If a court refuses a FISA application and there is not sufficient time for the
president to go to the court of review, the president can under executive order
act unilaterally, which he is doing now,"

So what did the AP report? They quote Kornblums remarks of "I am very wary of inherent authority . . . It sounds very much like King George." and nothing about his remarks about Bush's power to act unilaterally.

Fly To Israel?

I saw this banner add and just had to comment. I could not stop laughing at the irony. I mean, I'm sure people fly to Israel, and I would like to visit someday, but man its gonna be years before I set foot on a plane to or from there.

And what's with daily flights from Atlanta? Is that some Jewish hub or something?

Once Again, I'm Not A Monster

I think we can all agree that this guy most likely deserves a couple of years in jail for being an abusive ass hole (I'm sure that'll rehabilitate him), but to equate the life of a goldfish with that of a cat or dog seems a bit absurd to me. This seems to be a situation where the court sets precedent based on heart. An ugly can of worms may well be hanging open. Fraternities beware, you are facing hard time. Goldfish are the new jailbait.

Watch Out Osama! The Big Bad Dems Are Coming

This article made my morning. Who is this party kidding anyway? The party of "I voted for the War before I voted against it?" I mean come on...They are no more than a Paper Tiger. No Agenda, no loyalty and no support. I take that back, they do have an agenda. GET BUSH!

This Sucks.

This article doesn't say exactly where these guys got through our borders, but suddenly I feel as though maybe San Diego is getting a little played. A fresh change of scenery might be in order.

Really?

This sets an interesting precedent. That's all I'm going to say, but keep in mind that if you intend to comment on this, I may believe you are insulting me, in which case, put your dukes up!

I Swear I'm Not A Monster, But This Stuff Just Drives Me Nuts!

This article was mistakenly placed in the "news" section of the Mirror UK. It is obviously an editorial, and therefore does not really bother me because everyone is entitled to their opinion. Unfortunately, because it was placed in the wrong section, I was originally a bit upset to see that it was reported to be a fact, rather than an opinion, that Canada increased the cull by 5,000 in retaliation to Paul McCartney. Or that due to the conditions of the ice, "countless" (One of my favorite weasel words going) seals would have drown anyway, rendering the cull completely unnecessary. Also, I don't think that this would be the first time anyone admitted that the cull made money, but I find it conspicuous that no source is quoted when it is said that the government has admitted that money is the "impetus" for the hunt. I would like to know who "some vets" are , and which "REport" says that up to 40% of these seals "could still be" alive when skinned? Oh, and seal hunters are surly and stubborn; Unable to see the barbarism in their ways. I could go on and on pointing out the obvious fouls in this "article," but I'm already stewing over the fact that I'm defending Canada (They rag on Hollywood and the fashion industry too, but I just can't defend them). Damn undercover PETA jerks!

All I Need Is My Ann Coulter Doll, A Cool Buzz, And I'm Fine!

The truth is, I couldn't care less how anyone feels or what anyone says about Ann Coulter. I do, however, find it funny that uber serious douche bag Sean Penn would say the following about his Ann Coulter doll:

"We violate her. There are cigarette burns in some funny places. She's a pure snake-oil salesman. She doesn't believe a word she says."

Sweet! I knew you were still in there somewhere Spiccoli!

Seriously, Sean, this kind of juvenile crap can really dent your credibility. You've got to be careful what you say around the media. And by media, I mean the waiter that served your Kiwitinis while you were relaying this story to Tim and Susan.

Try And Tell Me This Guy Ever Gets Old.

Yayyy! Hugo Chavez wakes me up on a Monday once again. This guy is freaking solid gold and I swear to God if he puts out a spoken word album, I will be the first in line to snap that puppy up, because it's sure to be the most entertaining thing since Tenacious D. Speaking of which, don't tell me there would be anyone in the world better suited to portray this crazy bastard than Jack Black. I'm writing the script as we speak. Oh, who am I kidding? It writes itself.

You May Want To Have A Seat.

Sharon Stone has lost it, and I think I may lose my lunch. Here's what she said:

"I think Hillary Clinton is fantastic. But I think it is too soon for her to run. This may sound odd, but a woman should be past her sexuality when she runs. Hillary still has sexual power, and I don't think people will accept that. It's too threatening."

I find the very notion threatening.

Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don't

I find this interesting. Sure, this may seem like a severe and even somewhat barbaric form of punishment, but with parents today being threatened with jail time for kids skipping class (Which, from my personal recollections, my parents probably couldn't have done much about, if they had even known it was going on), maybe a more traditional "Time Out" just doesn't cut the mustard.

Bush lied! People died!

Go fuck yourself.

Here's the final reply to all the conspiracy theorists:

Moussaoui's own testimony, the bane of Liberals everywhere

Case closed. Pull those damned bumper stickers off your car and wake up.

And what's up with this lawyer's completey asinine reasoning:

"Before he took the stand, his lawyers made a last attempt to stop him from testifying, but failed. Defense attorney Gerald Zerkin argued that his client would not be a competent witness because he has contempt for the court, only recognizes Islamic law and therefore "the affirmation he undertakes would be meaningless."

- OR -

"If my client gets up there, he's going to let everyone know he's guilty. He's going to bluntly inform the world that this was not a US government conspiracy. He's going to let the world know the truth. I CAN'T LET THAT HAPPEN."

Whatever verdict is applied to Moussaoui, it should also be applied to his lawyer.

And the irony never ends given that Moussaoui is a French citizen and speaks in an English/French accent...

Napoleon Escaped Exile Also

In June 2004 a Frenchman tossed a bag over a fence at the White House prompting a potential bomb threat. As it turned out, the bag was full of garbage and the man, Cyrille Mourotte, was deported out of the U.S. Last week, the same man was arrested for the same act, tossing a bag of garbage over a White House fence. I have two questions, what statement is he trying to make by throwing garbage onto the White House lawn? Second, and more important, how did he get back into the country after being deported two years ago?

In some sense, this story can be very amusing. "Har har, you stupeed, you take my garbage! Aaw haw!" He tossed the bag with an empty bottle and cheese rinds over the high fence. With a sneer and a twirl of his moustache, the man in the striped shirt tip-toed into the shadows.

With T.S.A., Homeland Security, the Patriot Act and all the other "safeguards" supposedly protecting America and our borders, how could this happen? How did this guy get kicked out of the country and then let back in? Who else has been let in to the country that shouldn't have been? He must have shown identification at customs, did he use his real passport or a fake one? If he used a counterfeit, that is something we need to address. If he used his own name on an official document, why wasn't he on some list of people who should not be let in the country.

Maybe deportation doesn't and shouldn't equal banishment. I hope that Cyrille Mourotte's second chance is not granted others who may have more serious and dangerous statements to make.

The 51st State

Over the weekend 500,000 people marched through Los Angeles, 50,000 protested through Downtown Denver, 20,000 in Phoenix, between 5,000 and 7,000 in Charlotte, 4,000 in Sacramento and 1,500 in Dallas in what has been the largest demonstration in recent American history. A demonstration, that was in fact, profoundly different than what we Americans have become accustomed to as of late. There were no flag burnings, no grand arrests, no posters of propaganda and of hate, no bile spitting slogans that insulted our Country nor our President and most importantly NO HIPPIES!!! Instead it was a peaceful demonstration of pride, of wrapping oneself in the Flag, of hard work, of being treated fairly and prosperity for future generations. Something I haven't seen in a long time. So what was this demonstration?

Well recently, congress has been making attempts to "make illegal immigration a felony and to build more walls along the border." One wall would be at least 7 miles long between the California/Mexico border. The demonstration was comprised mostly of Mexican-Americans who feel that this is unjust. Give it a Read.
Reports say that demonstrators were draped in the Mexican and the American flag, chanting "Mexico! USA!" as well as "Si se puede," which translates to "Yes, we can." Enough said.

I don't know how I feel about immigration, for I know we are all immigrants. I just wish we could swap the people who seemingly hate this country for the people who actually like living here.

Tom Cruise Loses Popularity Contest To Sadam

You think it is hard being George Bush? Try being Tom Cruise.

Stuff Magazine asked readers who among four personalities they would least like
to share a camping tent with overnight. Cruise took the prize with 41 percent,
with Saddam trailing at 39 percent.

Now that is just mean...other than divorcing Nicole Kidman, Shooting his mouth off, follow a whacky religion and not revealing his lust for man meat, he really hasn't done anything wrong. You know like...genocide, meat grinder, chemical warfare... stuff like his competition was up to. It is obviously a joke

Save The Planet. Drive a Hot Rod.

I spend a lot of time on a hot rod bulletin board called The H.A.M.B. Stands for Hokey Ass Message Board. This site is devoted to traditional hot rodding. You don't find many zany environmental arguments on a hot rod board, but this site in particular is much more level and thoughful when it comes to any tech regarding internal combustion. I'm really enjoying this thread and just thought I'd pass it along. It may be a little long, but I think there's some interesting points made regarding HYBRIDS, new cars, and electricity based transportation in general.

Save the World, Drive an Old Car

Brokeback Actor Says He Is Taking It Up The Ass

Here is another lawsuit and another.

Tip Of The Iceberg

Here is another document that has come out drawing a link between Sadam and Osama. Also, over at Expose The Left, Stephen Hayes goes on Hannity and Colmes to show how Iraq and Al-Qaeda were connected. One point that is made in the video is that the argument "for war" was never about Sadam and 9/11, but instead it was about Sadam and Al-Qaeda, as well as, weapons. To understand many of us who supported this war, I think people need to realize this distinction.

Larry Burns His Underwear To Thwart Assassination Attempts

Awesome! I have been waiting for something juicy to pop up about Fidel "Larry" Castro. I mean the whole Abajo Fidel during the World Baseball Classic was alright, but this bit of news is priceless. It says that Larry "....has his underwear burned to foil any assassination plots with chemicals during laundering." That is not all it says either. You have to check it out.

Can you name any other Dictators in the past who were paranoid about assassination?

Aaaaaaaaaagh!!!

What the hell is a renegade baseball? And I'd be worried that a "reduced injury" ball would encourage beaning, as well as not paying much attention to what the hell is going on. Absurd.

I Thought They Hated Us?

Tell me again how we don't make the U.N. go around.

Okie-Dokie.

So it goes without saying, that Leroy Jenkins will never get a job in senior management.

What? I can get fired?

Hey, our favorite country is having fun again.

Socialism Is Fun

Or wait, maybe our favorite country is Canada, or Venezuela? Oh well, France is just as fun.

This You Will Like. Or Not.

This guy will never get work in Hollywood. Enjoy.

I'm Offended By Their Unwillingness To Offend

No matter how hard I try, I don't know if I'll ever understand why people are offended by this. It's not like it's a statue of Hitler wearing angel wings or something. It seems to me that some people are only offended because something that brings joy to others does not do the same for them. Or, in the case of many Aetheists I know, they are offended by people having beliefs that they feel are stupid, backward and without scientific merit. Whether you believe that or not, so what? Live and let live. Nobody commissioned these people to save the rest of the world from hope and teach people to accept their eventual oblivion.

It's A Matter Of Credibility.

As you all know, I have a problem with the celebrity political forum. I am tired of Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Sean Penn and Alec Baldwin using their star power to sway tabloid consumers to there way of thinking. Much of this is due to the fact that I don't believe these people are even remotely in touch with the common man, especially middle America. I also wonder how people who claim to be so busy all the time with their careers and commitments have the time to actually educate themselves about such complexities. But mostly, having gone through high school drama and being a theatre major in college for a ridiculous two years of my life, I can honestly say that actors are not typically very bright, and that if they ever had souls to begin with they were long ago traded for a mocha cappucino or a free Brazilion wax.

HOWEVER, occasionally a celeb comes along who's charisma and conviction are so strong, one can not help but stand at attention; To reassess our beliefs and embrace ideas that once seemed implausible. That celebrity? Charlie Sheen. His words:

"It seems to me like 19 amateurs with boxcutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75 percent of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory. It raises a lot of questions,""A couple of years ago, it was severely unpopular to talk about any of this. It feels like from the people I talk to, and the research I've done and around my circles, it feels like the worm is turning.""Just show us how this particular plane pulled off these maneuvers . . . It is up to us to reveal the truth. It is up to us because we owe it to the families, we owe it to the victims, we owe it to everyone's life who was drastically altered, horrifically, that day and forever. We owe it to them to uncover what happened."

There you have it. 9/11. We did it! I realize that the theory that the U.S. government set up 9/11 is not a new one, but it never carried much weight for me until CHARLIE SHEEN researched the issues WITHIN HIS OWN CIRCLES, forcing him to ask some tough questions. That shit is for rizzle. I think I speak for 100% of the country when I say, "Impeach!"

The Portland Mercury

One of the weekly papers here in Portland is called The Mercury. It is like the Teen/Indie/Alternative paper or some shit. And this post is more of a question rather than an opinion piece. What I would like to know is, how do these weekly's work? Are they non-profit? I know they get money from advertising, but are they tax exempt? The reason for my curiosity has to do with the picture shown below. It is a coloring contest put on by the paper. Whoever wins this contest gets $200.00 plus their picture will be on the cover of the following edition. If you can't tell what it is about, it is an Easter Bunny pooping out eggs that little Jesus Christs hatch out of. After they are free, they run gayly to the church in the background.
Does this picture bother me? Yes it does...I mean I am not going to burn down embassies or behead people, but these guys and the people who support the paper wont be getting my cheddar. What really bothers me most about this picture is not the blasphemy, I mean I am not that religious and I find South Park to be hilarious, but this artest and this paper have gone to the very ends to be insulting. And I think they succeeded.

This Post Is Like A Bad Vegas Lounge Act.

I wasn't even going to dignify this with a post, but since we're on the subject of frivolous lawsuits-and blog-ust and I are ridiculously over enthused about American Idol this season-also-ran Clay Aiken's fans have filed an FTC complaint against this freak's labels. The Claymates, as they like to be called, claim that RCA and SONY/BMG falsely advertised their "star" as something other than a raging homosexual (Not that there's anything wrong with that!). Simon Cowell recently went on Larry King live and called these old ladies crazy. Also dreadful. Their rebuttal:

"We are grateful that the merits of our complaint will be heard by the FTC instead of a pretend judge from a televised talent show.""We have been dismayed to see our complaint characterized in the media as homophobic. That is not our intention and while central to our complaint it is regrettable that Mr. Aiken's sexuality has come under scrutiny. Our complaint is not about defaming Mr. Aiken or his sexual preferences. It is directed toward the deceptive practices of the record companies.""This is part of a culture of institutional deception behind James Frye, Jason Blair, ENRON, Milli Vanilli, Ashley Simpson and now Clay Aiken. We believe that it is the difference between private behavior versus public responsibility.""We await the FTC answer to our complaint and will have no further comment until that time."

It's bad enough that these psychos actually believed that Clay Aiken was some kind of burning testosterone factory, but did they really just compare Enron to Milli Vanilli? As one of the bazillion people who actually got burned by Enron, I take this as a personal afront. I didn't even lose sleep over Milli Vanilli. Mostly because the songs were so good I didn't even care who sang them.

And one last thing. If you ever run into one of Clay Aiken's representatives, run. He will likely end up selling you your own pants. Those guys are, apparently, that good.

A Little More Cut And Dry

You want a frivolous lawsuit? Knock yourself out!

I Just Love Goth Speak

Radiohead frontman Tom Yorke gave the most quotable, bitchy, Gothic wimp whine in todays Drudge Report that I had to post it.
From

"I got so stressed out and so freaked out about it. Initially when it came up I
tried to be pragmatic....But Blair has no environmental credentials as far as
I'm concerned."

To

"It was like talking to Blair's spin doctors. It was all getting weird. It was
just obvious there was no point in meeting him anyway, and I didn't want to,"

And finishing with

"I came out of that whole period just thinking, I don't want to get involved
directly, it's poison. I'll just shout my mouth off from the sidelines."

This really doesn't have any relevance for me other than that it reminded me of some of the company I kept in my younger days. But if you want to read it here it is

Rice Rocket

Now that Tagliabue is retiring as commissioner of football, the door is open for Condi Rice to take his job, but she has declined.
Nonetheless, I am wondering if there is anything this woman can't do. She seems to be up for anything and proves to us all, that in this country, race and sex do not matter. You are capable of anything. God Bless This Fucking Place! :)

I think I'm Going To Barf

I just don't even really know what to say about this. I guess I'm just glad that our founding fathers weren't too manly. Remember all that restraint we showed in WW II? Right up until they bombed Pearl Harbor? I felt Patton may have been a little too manly near the end of the war. Of course, he was following manly orders. Back then there weren't very many dissenting voices in the White House either, it seems. I wonder if Miss Marcus prefers her partners to be manly?

I'm Stumped.

At first glance I had a certain aount in restored faith in our legal system when I saw this item, but now I'm not so sure. At face value it's nice to see someone get their frivolous lawsuits thrown back in there face with a hefty penalty attached, but without more detail than is provided, how can we be sure? Discrimination and hate crime laws seem to go only one way in this country, so perhaps Mr. Murphy was trying to prove a point. Obviously going about it in a rather extreme and poorly thought out way, but trying to prove a point nonetheless. Or maybe he really is a nut job. Who can say for sure without more to go on, but I thought I'd throw this out there for some uninformed debate.

Where Does It Stop?

It worries me that although we see these things coming from a mile away, it seems nothing can be done to stop them. Like seat belts and motorcycle helmets it becomes law and we move on. Free will becomes a privilege.

Oh, Canada...You Crack Me Up.

Those of you who know me are probably aware that I am no big fan of Canada. Canadiens think they're really funny and smart and sensitive and wonderful. And hockey is their favorite sport, which doesn't make any sense at all. They have their own professional football league, which would be admirable if they hadn't made the field longer and wider with bigger end zones and more players on the field and what not. I mean, how far do you have to go to prove that even though no one could pick you out of a line-up as being such, you are 100% Canadien and not a citizen of George W. Bush's evil lair...a.k.a. the United Staes of America. Up yours Canada!

By the way, I'm all for the seal hunt in so much as I understand the need for it, but can you honestly tell me those hook bats are the best way to go about bashing those little bastards down to a manageable population?

Scientology Gives Isaac Hayes the "Shaft"

Scientology just freaks me out. I don't know if what this guy says is tue or not, but I'm just going to go ahead and say that it is. Scientologists will now take control of your stroke-addled body and quit your job if you don't properly protect yourself. You've been warned.

Release The Kraken

For months now, bloggers have been talking about thousands of papers found in Iraq linking Sadam to Al-Qaeda and WMDs, but they were never made public. No one could understand why? Well, some are finally trickling there way into the media and more are supposed to follow.
Is there and actual link? I think there is, but I am not stepping into that argument of dung again. I will leave that up to people who know better.

By the way, Michelle Malkin is showing how some media rags are already setting up disclaimers.

So That I Don't Forget

Sometimes I see some interesting graphs and quotes on the internet, but I never get around to posting them all. Here is a dogpile, presented by Gateway Pundit, I found to be interesting.

Anti-War Protest Anniversary

Eventhough support for the war in Iraq is waning amongst Americans, it appears to have company. Protests all over the world have had a considerable drop off in attendance compared to previous global protests.
example 1
example 2
I understand that the hatred for this war is still strong, but is it safe to say that it is not as strong?

Susan Sarandon to Play "Peace Mom"

Susan Sarandon is set to portray "Peace Mom" anti-war activist, Cindy "Curly Joe" Sheehan, in a biopic movie. Which will, in my opinion, become another black eye for the hollywood elite. For me, this is just another example of how so many in Hollywood are willing to hoist a woman like Curly Joe onto their shoulders, while ignoring the thousands of men and women who have sacrificed their time and their lives for this country. The same country that allows these celebrity pundits to ignore who the real heroes are. I think it is a shame.

So how is the movie going to go?
Will it talk about a woman who gave up custody for an 8 year old son she is now claiming to be fighting for?
Will it talk about how she is estranged from her friends and family and is invlolved in a divorce because of her antics?
Will it show her as an attention grubbing hog who seems to be pleased with herself everytime she is arrested?
Will we see her hobnobbing and and praising blathering Dictators like Hugo "Moe" Chavez?
Will we hear her compare iraqi insurgents to that of American Revolutionary war fighters?
And Lastly, will we hear sound bites of her accusing our President and this country of being terrorists?
If they do, they will apologize for it.

I don't think Curly's story will always be popular though and that gives me strength. I will tell you why. As our troops in the Middle East start to come home, either because individual tours of duty are up or because troop levels start to shrink as a whole, then we well hear much louder and much braver voices. Until that day, we are just going to have to endure people like Curly Joe Sheehan.

2-0-5 Video

The Jib Jab fellas have done it again. This video is great. Of course it doesn't talk about the good things that happened in 2005. Lets go down the list.
1. Successful January election in Iraq.
2. Drafting of constitution in Iraq.
3. Successful December election in Iraq.
4. U.S. unemployment dropping to 4.7%
5. 3 straight quarters of GDP positive growth averaging 4.1% in U.S. & 10 straight of 3%.
6. Two Supreme court nominees we can be proud of. Roberts and Alito.
7. Lebanons move to take their country back and remove Syrian Soldiers.
8. Free elections in Egypt
9. Jon Boltons appointment as U.N. Ambassador.
10. Trial on Sadam begins.
I can't think of anything else, so if you have anymore, feel free to join in.

They've Suffered So Much!

When will we learn to accept them? Probably when their alien overlords make us, that's when!

This Kind Of Crap Is Getting Old.

Of course, anybody who has ever dealt with a HOA, shouldn't be surprised by this article. Bunch of freakin' Nazis.

I'll Post The Damn Article.

How do I feel about this? That's a doozy. I don't think you could ever set this type of precedent, because once you do it leads to every deadbeat father in the country trying to get out of paying child support. Countless hours of court time. Taxpayers money. The sad thing is, there are probably some out there who are, at least to a degree, on the wrong end of the current laws. The plaintiff here claims the woman he impregnated assured him over and over again that she could not get pregnant. Should the man be expected to take her in for a physical? If she's telling the truth, and can prove it, the responsibility lies somewhere in the middle; If such a condition doesn't exist, though, doesn't the risk and therefore consequence, lay more squarely in her court?

Let's beat this one into the ground people, cause I am excited to figure out how I really feel about it!

Al-Qaeda Bill Of Rights

Ever since Abu Ghraib, the media has been flooding our airwaves and televisions with horror stories about US held prisoners of this war on terror. Especially when regarding Guatanamo Bay.
1.) We had the discredited story on the supposed "Koran Flushing" reported by Newsweek.
2.) Sen. Dick Durbin Calling Guatanamo Bay a "gulag."
3.) John McCain's ban on torture.
4.) Europe's Chorus, with top soloist Angela Merkel, to close Club Gitmo.
...so on and so forth.
So what do the prisoners think of their treatment? Why don't we ask them.

Are The Left's Fears Becoming A Reality?

Captain Ed, over at Captain's Quarters, has a couple of interesting posts today.
A Direct Assault On Judicial Activism
Gop Conservatives Take A Stand
I think that if both of these two issues fall towards Republican interest...ummm...you decide.

If It Works, Clinton Wins. If It Fails, Bush Loses.

Republican Congressman, Peter King of New York, explained that the best way to break the impasse over the Dubai ports deal is to have "an American firm take over operations for U.S. terminals purchased by Dubai Ports World." He later suggested that Ex-president Clinton "would be the ideal intermediary to persuade Dubai officials to go along with such an arrangement" due to his close relationship with United Arab Emirates. Read it

Earlier this week New York Daily News said its sources say Halliburton is "the U.S. company best equipped to partner with DP World...."
Halliburton???
Ahhh...this again. I can see the signs on the streets of SF already. "Cheney planned this from the beginning. He tried to sellout homeland security in order to get Halliburton in on the Ports deal! They tricked us again!" Does it matter that Schumer prefers Halliburton? or does it matter "that Halliburton was a favorite contractor of the Clinton Pentagon?" I don't think it does. There is a conspiracy here and be sure of one thing, if this goes through, a movie starring George Clooney will be made.

Now I'm just hoping they apply such ruling to San Francisco.

There's another subtle note to this story: the reliance on federal funding. I'm very much for a small federal government, you know like this country used to have before WWII, like this country was founded on.

But those that propose big government will then be subject to such control by the feds, as witnessed by this case. The federal government was able to control the school by withholding money. If the school (you can add state, city, etc. here) wasn't so reliant on federal funds it would then have more freedom to do as it chooses.

Whoops, I'm letting my Libertarian show.

John Kerry Blogs

John Kerry has been known to read blogs off the internet along with his wife P.H.K. Kerry has even gone so far as to submit a post on a very popular liberal Blog called the Daily Kos. I read it...it was OK.
Anyway, a few weeks ago a video was posted and circulated through the internet. Democrat Video It is a video that features FDR, Truman and Kennedy and the title of the video is called "What Happened To The Old Democratic Party? What's The Deal With Today's Crazies?"
Hmmmm....Do you think Kerry saw this video? Could have. Kerry did evoke the dead in a recent speech. Here

Great American presidents, from Roosevelt to Truman to Kennedy, understood that
success requires a community of nations working together...

Coincidence?

How Do You Spell Bahbwa?

I saw this bit on Barbra Streisand and I just had to post it. Spelling Bee







I know I am not much of a speller either, but at least I am not ugly, nor do I pose in a black dress with a flower bouquet.

Dial Aug For "Told You So"

Iran negotiator announces: We duped West on nukes.

Hey France, where is your "open dialogue" now? Oh, it is right here.

Graphic Video

BarknucklePolitics is showing a video called "A Message to the Blairs"
I want to warn you, it is a very graphic video.

T I O N in the Government makes Corruption

On Friday, Randy "Duke" Cunningham got a record breaking 8 years 4 months sentencing for accepting $2.4 million in bribes from a government contractor. Wow, that is sad, but what is really sad is that this sentencing ended a 27 year run held by Corrupt Congressional Democrats. In fact, since 1976, 13 members of Congress have been convicted in criminal court and sent to prison... How many of them were Republican? Just 2.

Lets take a look.

Thank you "Expose the Left" for keeping me informed.

What Are These People Driving At?

As some of you may know, Iran has been conducting meetings to try to determine the authenticity of the Jewish Holocaust. Many saying the Holocaust was made up and yadda yadda yadda... Now Iran is seeking permission to conduct an on-site investigation of Auschwitz. Why? For what purpose? If they conclude that the Holocaust did happen, what next? and if not, then what? Only time will tell, but for me, I believe they are getting ready for something big here and they are doing everything they can in order to prepare the hearts and minds of their people. I especially believe that if they are allowed to investigate, they will most certainly conclude that the Holocaust was a hoax. Why? Well, for the same reason someone sees the Virgin Mary in a grilled cheese sandwich...THEY ARE BLINDED BY FAITH! Or maybe it will somehow justify them wanting to wipe out Israel. I am at a loss. All I can do is show one of my favorite pictures created by Protest Warrior. Maybe it will put things into perspective.

Redemption For Lord Kingly

I remember a long time ago, Lord Kingly got into an argument with a friend of ours about David Blaine. Our friend thought that Blaine was doing some real magic and that just wasn't working for Lord Kingly. Hopefully this will put that to rest.

Portland Beavers..."Uh Huh Huh...You Said Portland"

The San Diego Padres minor league club, the Portland Beavers, play at PGE Park. Cool! That is like 2 miles from my house and a mile from my office. Someone told me that Thursday games are called "Thirsty Thursday." I guess PGE park opens a beer garden on those days. OOOOHHHH BOY! Looks like some interesting Friday mornings are in my future.

Blogust

Zombietime is back, and I like this page.

Picture this

If you are not familiar with this site, please dig in. Almost as good as The Onion. :-)

Mike

"Babe" Ruth

My favorite sports season is around the corner. Blogust and I are eagerly awaiting our SF Giants vs. SD Padres yearly fun where we instantly call each other based on who's team wins.

Say what you want about Bonds (Blogust has a lot to say for sure) but I've always liked having on The Giants.

Seems the team is reaching out to its home city in obvious ways this year. :-)

"Where Were These Ladies When I Went To School And...

...If I were still in school would I even have a chance?" and other titillating, excuse the pun, questions.

More on MSM Bias

Gatewaypundit has a bit on some media bias. Check it out.
It isn't shocking news, but it is worth a look.

I Am An Adult...Not A Dolt

Jon Stewart has been on the news a lot these days. Not only will he be hosting the 78th annual "Give Yourselves a Pat on the Back" (and in my opinion proving to the world that hollywood is trying to cater to a liberal audience), but he seems to be a guest on various talk shows. Larry King being the most memorable to me. Actually I didn't watch all of it, because I find Larry King to be a drip and Jon Stewart to be un-funny. That is not true, I find Jon Stewart to be funnyish, but the Daily Show is no way as good as when it was hosted by Craig Kilborn. Alas, that was a long time ago.

Moving on, during his interview Jon Stewart was talking about Bush's statement that "Americans are addicted to oil." He made the argument that Bush doesn't address the Nations Citizens like adults and that this whole "addicted to oil" business was something that Jimmy Carter was touching on way before Bush did. I had to laugh, then I had to change the channel.

Personally I don't think Bush addresses the Nation as if they were children, but I can understand why some people feel like children when they have their fingers in their ears and are screaming "La La La I can't hear you, I can't hear you," when the President is speaking. Also, to say "Oh my God, Jimmy Carter totally said that like way before you ever did" is such an immature statement that if I was Bush, I would start talking to Americans as if they were children.
