Wonder If I'm on There...

Terrorist Watch List Hits One Million Names.
I can't help but wonder: If I'm on there, should I be honored or freaked the hell out? Just curious.

I'm About to Fall Over Laughing Here....

Seriously this is funny shit, no pun intended.

San Francisco may name sewage treatment plant after Bush

Somehow, this fits his legacy. Perfectly.

Okay, so why am I not on that list? I demand a recount!

My Heart Bleeds.... Oh Wait, It DOESN'T

Can someone explain to me why in the hell the Supreme Court is worried for Exxon? Yes, that Exxon, the one who fucked up royally in Alaska damn near twenty years ago and made $40 billion in 2006. It wouldn't be because the sorry bastards might actually have to own up and pay for the goddamned mistake they made in 1989, now would it?

.........

Hey Exxon? Do the right fucking thing for one and PAY THE GODDAMNED MONEY YOU FUCKING OWE!! You fucked up, now own up to that and take some fucking responsibility for once. Stop dragging your damned feet, grow up and take it like a fucking adult.

--Weasel, "It's been almost 20 years. These fuckers ought to owe Alaska a shitload of interest and fucking penalty fees."

:facepalm:

What the hell is wrong with KansASS?

The Kansas State High School Activities Association said referees reported that Michelle Campbell was preparing to officiate at St. Mary's Academy near Topeka on Feb. 2 when a school official insisted that Campbell could not call the game.

The reason given, according to the referees: Campbell, as a woman, could not be put in a position of authority over boys because of the academy's beliefs.

Um, I'd like to see you guys tell those boys' mothers that.
Wow. Seriously, WOW.

"We view officials not as male or female, Hispanic or African-American or Asian-American. We view officials as officials," Musselman said. "Discrimination against our officials is something we can't be party to."

Treating people as people. Huh, what an amazing concept.

Wish I could say that this bullshit surprises me, but it doesn't.
Oh Lord, Fire Divine, have mercy...
So why does National Intelligence Director Mike McConnell hate America and its freedoms?

So Much for CNN

If you can stomach Larry King, you can watch "Dr." McBitchypants Laura tonight.

I think I'll "rot" my brain with a few more showings of Transform and Roll Out. If I enjoyed self-flagellation, I'd buy myself a scourge..... and use the fucker.

Freddie Got PWNED

No Fred, I don't feel a damn bit sorry for you.

A grieving father won a nearly $11 million verdict Wednesday against a fundamentalist Kansas church that pickets military funerals out of a belief that the war in Iraq is a punishment for the nation's tolerance of homosexuality.

You just got owned, man. Now deal with it.

I Don't Feel a Damn Bit Safer

Found this little gem at God is for Suckers.
Starting October the first, they'll be watching us. Cue up Sting and that '80s song about stalking.

From the source:

Beginning in October 2007 the Department of Homeland Security will open a new office called the National Applications Office (NAO) charged with civil/domestic intelligence gathering. This new division of Homeland Security was conceived entirely by the Executive Branch, with no Congressional input, and will serve as a clearinghouse for requests to access the data provided by military spy satellites, with a resolution of inches, to view the territorial United States. During the hearing Charles Allen, Assistant Secretary for Intelligence & Analysis told Chairman Bennie Thompson that their legal and civil rights oversite concerns were misplaced. […] The plan is for the NAO to serve as a clearing house for law enforcement requests to access the spy satellite data upon NAO’s approval. That approval will be granted through inhouse review, with no Judicial oversite, and no explaination forth coming to the Committee as to what, exactly, the guidelines for approval would be. The legal staff of both Homeland Security and the NAO declined to attend the hearings, claiming, according to Chairman Thompson that they did not wish to appear on a panel that included the ACLU.

Boy, I feel safer already. Don't you?



Pic from LOL BOTS. Trust me, if it were Bumblebee watching over me, I'd feel a helluva lot safer.

The Apocolypse is Nigh

Jenna's engaged.

Jenna Bush, 25, is marrying Henry Hager, 28, a former White House aide who used to work with Karl Rove.

The groom to be is a former aide to Karl Rove?! ::insert canned wolf howl from American Dad::

To steal a quote from an obscure 90s cartoon called Animaniacs: "Be afraid. Be very afraid."

I Feel Safer Already

Bush is trying to fast track executions.

The Bush administration is preparing to speed up the executions of criminals who are on death row across the United States, in effect, cutting out several layers of appeals in the federal courts so that prisoners can be "fast-tracked" to their deaths.

Good old W. He truly cares about the living.

President Bush has always been a death penalty enthusiast. The 152 prisoners he dispatched to their deaths in his eight years as governor of Texas set a high-water mark unmatched before or since.

I'm so glad GW is watching over us. I'm sure Joe Amrine feels the same.

Four years ago, a Missouri man, Joe Amrine, was released after 17 years on death row after the collapse of all evidence that led to his conviction for a jail murder. The state argued, with a straight face, that even the establishment of innocence was not a reason to stop his execution, because nothing had been procedurally incorrect about his original trial. Again, it was a federal appeals court that weighed in on Amrine's behalf.

I'll sleep soundly tonight, yessiree. No worries here. Wait, is that the thud of boots on the pavement?

Ah, it's just my imagination.

......

I hope.

And It Gets Even Worse

The alert has been expanded.

So, photosynthesis anyone? That might be the safest thing right now.....

Plastic, the Other White Meat

First, we had the tainted pork. Now, we have tainted chicken.

And people wonder why in the hell I want to eat organic so often. =/

And John Edwards Took This Yutz Seriously......

We can't find fault with the Catholic Church, but what the hell, let's hear a good old fashioned gook joke.

Wow. Seriously. Wow.

Oh, and John-boy? Fuck you. I refuse to vote for your sorry ass. I don't give a damn that she offered her resignation, you didn't do or say much to actually help the sitch. So, take your "personally offended by previous writings" bullshit and cram it. I'm almost glad you didn't end up as VP, you nauseating douche.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go puke now.
