Thank God for this invention, huh?

Found it at Bits and Pieces:


Tired of picking up warm poop? Then you need Poop Freeze. It chills your dog’s doo to –62° F. Now, that’s cold!

Such a brain trust

ZION, Ill. (AP) — Steve Kreuscher wants a judge to allow him to legally change his name. He wants to be known as "In God We Trust."

Kreuscher (CROY'-shir) says the new name would symbolize the help God gave him through tough times.

The 57-year-old man also told the (Arlington Heights) Daily Herald he's worried that atheists may succeed in removing the phrase "In God We Trust" from U.S. currency.

He recalls that the phrase "God Reigns" was removed from the Zion city seal in 1992 after courts deemed it unconstitutional. Zion was founded as a theocracy — by a sect that believed the Earth was flat.

The school bus driver and amateur artist in the northern Chicago suburb says he has filed a petition to change his name in Lake County Circuit Court.

Hey -- Steve -- kinda bored lately, are ya? Ummm - what are your friends going to call you -- "Ingoddy?" "The truster? ... The trustolater?" The Klown says "in god we trust -- in Steve, we don't trust." Get your head examined, mental reject.

Global warming = Goodbye beer

Well, according to Jim Salinger, a respected climate scientist with New Zealand's National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, global warming may spell the end of summer days on the patio with a brewski, or of winter nights in front of the tube watching the NHL with a Canadian.

Okay, so Salinger doesn't actually mention anything about Canada or hockey, since his immediate concern is with Australia and New Zealand. But all the same, his concerns about global warming's effect on beer could apply up here, not just Down Under.

Speaking recently at the Institute for Brewing and Distilling convention for Asia-Pacific, Salinger said droughts in Australia have produced shortages of hops and barley. And as the temperature continues to increase, so too will the price of beer, since the yields of hops and barley will likely decrease.

So pressing is this problem, according to Salinger, that Australia might actually begin to run dry of beer within 30 years. More here:

Hee-Hawwwww Hee-Hawwww. I added you to my list, dumbass.

Faxed my Senator this morning


If you want to check your rep/senator's position on this click here:

My rep/senators are good on this issue right now. I (and many others) had to fax Senator Burr quite a few times (and I recall being pissed) before he got the message, but he eventually got on board.

If you want to send your reps/senators a fax (or give them a call, etc) click here and then click on the "fax congress free" link -- it's small but it flashes red toward the top middle of the page.

This is the kind of thing that works with congress and this organization (Numbers USA) was largely credited with stopping amnesty -- TWICE.

I'm sorry, did I maim you for life?

Kai Leigh Harriott watches Anthony Warren's videotaped apology Wednesday in Dorchester.

BOSTON — A young girl paralyzed by a stray bullet five years ago says she hopes a videotaped apology by her shooter prompts others to turn away from violence.

Kai Leigh Harriott and her mother watched the tape made in prison by Anthony Warren. The tape was played during an event Wednesday to declare May as Boston's Peace Month.

Warren thanked Kai Leigh and her family for the opportunity to "apologize to my community."

Kai Leigh was 3 when she was shot in 2003. The bullet severed her spine and left her paralyzed from the waist down.

Police say Warren fired the shots during an argument with the girl's neighbors. He was sentenced to 13 to 15 years in prison.

During his 2006 plea hearing, Kai Leigh told Warren that what he did to her was wrong, but that she forgave him. Click here to watch this POS's apology video. Yes, he sounds like an idiot. "Now I get a chance to work on myself" -- sheesh, spare me.

Yes, because for good little liberals, apologies solve everything. He sentenced her to life in a wheelchair and he gets 13 years (prolly out in 7.) Sounds fair to me.

Hey, Warren, you want ME to forgive you, shoot yourself in the spine when you get out, jackass ... but something tells me you're not THAT sorry.

Idiot criminals - I love it

Happy hour with the Klown



A new inductee applies for permission to attend the Klown's happy hour


Mental midget family procreates

May 3: Xochitl Parra and her newborn son Alejandro Parra are wheeled from St. Mary Medical Center.

LONG BEACH, Calif. — A 17-year-old girl gave birth secretly at home, then walked four blocks to a hospital with the baby still attached by its umbilical cord.

"I was just a little nervous" when the labor began, Xochitl Parra said Friday from St. Mary Medical Center as she cradled her 8-pound, 3-ounce son, Alejandro.

The boy was normal and "eating like a champ," said Dr. Jose Perez, director of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

The teenager said she was alone and taking a shower around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday to get ready for school. Then the contractions took over.

"I felt his head coming, so I sit down and pushed so he could come out," she said.

Parra did not call 911 because the home phone was disconnected, and she did not want to wake the neighbors because it was so early. Instead, she wrapped the baby, got dressed and went to the hospital on foot.

"I started walking and jogging to the hospital," she said.

The teen came into the hospital lobby and asked for help, Perez said.

"She still had the placenta and the baby was still attached, so of course everyone said, 'Don't move!"' he said.

Perez praised the girl for taking quick action.

"They could have bled to death; thank God that didn't happen," the doctor said. "She was very clever. She knew what to do. She wrapped the baby up and walked over here." Yes, she's very clever -- a genius, right, doc?

Parra, a sophomore at Long Beach Poly High, said she had kept her pregnancy a secret because she was afraid her mother would "kick me out of the house." Her mother has now accepted the situation and is going to help the teen care for the baby so she can continue attending school, Parra said. Right, no need to start punishing now, right mom? After all, you use punishment to teach children -- so, you're right, it's too late. Hey -- I sure hope you don't mind when the second one comes along.

Perez called the outcome "heartwarming." Yes, it's sooooo heartwarming when someone risks the life of a baby for idiotic reasons and then gets away with it.

"We hear so much negative with teenagers throwing their babies in the Dumpsters," he said. "This baby is fine, and hopefully there will be a happy ending with the extended family."

Sure - just dump the load on mom, you dumb snatch. You're such a genius, why do you need to finish school? Why inflict your genius on others? Your mom SHOULD have kicked you out of the house -- go get a job, take responsibility, shouldn't be any problem for a genius like YOU.

Oh -- and hey, mom -- nice name you gave your kid "Xochitl" -- I wonder how many hours of her life she'll spend explaining how to spell it. I'm glad the genius learned from it though and named her own kid "Alejandro." I'd bet $20 the whole family is illegal.

Rural white conservative = Dumbasses




On the syndicated, "The Chris Matthews Show," Kim Genardo, a political reporter for NBC Raleigh, North Carolina affilate WNCN, predicted that "smart, educated" North Carolina primary voters wouldn't be swayed by Jeremiah Wright but was unsure how "conservative, white, rural voters" would vote as she admitted she's not, "in touch with them."

The following exchange occurred on the May 4, edition of "The Chris Matthews Show:

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Let's talk about North Carolina, Kim. It's where you work. He's had a big lead down there, Barack Obama. Has for weeks now.

KIM GENARDO, WNCN RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA: Absolutely.

MATTHEWS: It's narrowing, I hear. Tell me what you hear about that race as it's shaping up. Will it be an up or down on Jeremiah Wright, not Barack?

GENARDO: Yeah. Absolutely. We've seen a lot of narrowing. Clinton might be the comeback kid here, but does she have enough to get it done? I don't think so, but it's going to be close. And, and they'll spin that as a victory anyway. But as far as Reverend Wright, we're hearing from voters there that it's not really influencing them too much. At, at least, the smart, educated pool of voters who go to the primaries, they're not buying necessarily this guilt by association. But, that being said, what about your more conservative, white, rural voters? And I don't know that I'm that in touch with them to know if that's going to make them (unintelligible)"

MATTHEWS: What an honest reporter you are! (Yes -- so honest -- and OBJECTIVE too.)

Senator, can I blow you later?

From Newbusters:

CNN’s John Roberts apparently took David Gergen’s advice from last week, and during his interview of Barack Obama on Monday’s "American Morning," declared out of the gate that he wasn’t going to ask the Democrat from Illinois about his former pastor. "I want to just stipulate at the beginning of this interview, we are declaring a Reverend Wright-free zone today. So, no questions about Reverend Wright. Our viewers want us to move on, so this morning we're going to move on. Is that okay with you?" Obama reacted favorably to this declaration. "Fair enough. That sounds just fine."

Yes -- Scooter Libby raises questions but never mind Reverend Wright -- never mine "God Damn America -- God Damn America" -- right, totally objective braying jackass? Hey -- maybe he'll let you suck him off after the interview. Ooooo a facial.

An Objectivist's View of Gasoline Prices

This article is over a year old - but still relevant...

Monday Morning Happiness


Wanted to share what I got to enjoy on the beach this past weekend. Let me go on the record to say I saw no nuts, bananas or socks.

One brave nanny

From Fox News:

CHINO HILLS, Calif. — A nanny pulled a 2-year-old girl from the jaws of a coyote when the animal attacked the toddler and tried to carry her away in its mouth, officials said.

The girl was playing Friday in a sandbox at Alterra Park in Chino Hills in San Bernardino County. Around 10:30 a.m., the caretaker heard screaming and saw a coyote trying to carry the child off in its mouth, officials said.

The babysitter grabbed the child and pulled her from the coyote's grasp, the sheriff's department said in a statement.

The coyote then ran off into nearby brush.

The child suffered wounds to her buttocks and was taken to Chino Valley Medical Center and was later released, director of nursing Anne Marie Robertson said. She was later transported to Loma Linda University Medical Center to receive the rabies vaccine.

San Bernardino County Animal Control and the State Department of Fish and Game were searching for the animal, Wiltshire said.

Miller said there was another attack in the area in October when a coyote bit a 3-year-old girl playing in a cul-de-sac. The girl needed treatment for puncture wounds to the head and thigh, Miller said.

Something tells me this nanny "don't take no shit off nobody." I sure hope she's appreciated. Man, what a brave thing to do -- and, lmao @ the coyote hauling ass -- I'll bet she was yelling and trying to kick the SOB. "You want some nanny action? Come on, furball ... you'll have to wear a coyote wig when I finish with you. Beep Beep, mf'r"

Global warming = Shark attack increase

Three decades have passed since the movie Jaws sent terrified bathers scrambling out of the ocean. But as any beach lifeguard knows, there's still nothing like a gory shark attack to stoke public hysteria and paranoia.

Two deaths in the waters off California and Mexico last week and a spate of shark-inflicted injuries to surfers off Florida's Atlantic coast have left beachgoers seeking an explanation for a sudden surge in the number of strikes.

In the first four months of this year, there were four fatal shark attacks worldwide, compared with one in the whole of 2007, according to the International Shark Attack File at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville.

Some experts suggest that an abundance of seals has attracted high numbers of sharks, while others believe that overfishing has hit their food chain. 'I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it's a convenient excuse,' Burgess said. Another contributory factor to the location of shark attacks could be global warming and rising sea temperatures. 'You'll find that some species will begin to appear in places they didn't in the past with some regularity,' he said. More here:


LMAO -- it's impossible to humiliate a lib.
Because of this, I have decided to start a record of the things these idiots blame on global warming/climate change. This was my first entry. I'll publish a list in the future -- you know -- in case anybody gets amnesia.

You know -- these idiots are laughable but they have a VERY good chance of stealing your money, and lots of it. Excerpts below - the rest here:

Just this week, Al Gore drummed up $683 million for an investment fund that aims to profit from government-subsidized global warming-related technologies. A few weeks ago, Gore launched a $300 million global warming ad campaign. Do you think he’s at all interested in returning that money to investors and contributors? Or that he and the IPCC are interested in returning their Nobel Peace Prizes?

The federal government has been doling out more than $5 billion annually for research into climate change and alternative energy. A generation ago, there were only a handful of climatologists around the world; now there are legions of taxpayer-funded climatologists, scientists and public health professionals from many disciplines also hooked up to the climate gravy train.

What about the private-sector profiteers? Will the carbon footprint industry give up its CO2-offset ATM? Will companies that have been lobbying to receive trillions of dollars of free carbon credits from Congress — including Alcoa, Dow Chemical, and Dupont — stop pushing for all that free money?

How many outspoken politicians and celebrities will be willing to acknowledge that they have made fools of themselves? I suppose that California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, Madonna and others could at least jet on back to their hypocritical Green lifestyles with a clear conscience of sorts.

Finally, there’s the environmental movement that is now just a November presidential election away from its dream of turning the United States into a centrally planned Green state where under the guise of saving the planet, the Green elites would get to pick and choose who gets to use how much energy and at what cost.

Charity org discovers Jewish secret

Found it at LGF:

Jewish leaders planned the Holocaust to kill "disabled and handicapped" Jews to avoid having to care for them, according to a Hamas TV educational program. As much of the world prepared to commemorate Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, Hamas TV presented its latest sinister twist on Holocaust denial.

The Hamas TV educational program, broadcast last week, taught that the murder of Jews in the Holocaust was a Zionist plot with two goals:

1- To eliminate "disabled and handicapped" Jews by sending them to death camps, so they would not be a burden on the future state of Israel.

2- At the same time, the Holocaust served to make "the Jews seem persecuted" so they could "benefit from international sympathy."

Amin Dabur, head of the Palestinian "Center for Strategic Research" explained that "the Israeli Holocaust - the whole thing was a joke, and part of the perfect show that [Zionist leader and future Israeli prime minister] Ben Gurion put on." The "young energetic and able" were sent to Israel, while the handicapped were sent "so there would be a Holocaust." Much more bullshit here:

Wow -- so the Jews planned their own holocaust -- how sneaky.

Right -- and remember -- Hamas isn't a terrorist organization, it's a charity -- you know -- helping people out -- nothing more.

Fox News Audience is "more dumber"

Found it at LGF:

OK -- let me get you up to speed. A couple of days ago, this moron was at a town meeting where John McCain was speaking. He stands up and asks McCain, "did you ever call your wife a cunt?"

Now -- here is John Gibson spending 4-5 minutes with the guy and it just keeps getting funnier -- don't miss the guy who calls in at the end. Ha ha -- I'm still laughing.

The Klown shall retire

After years of research and development, I have developed a very cool and comfortable ski mask -- they come in any shade of black and also camo etc. I'm going over to the West Bank and Gaza to sell them. I figure I should be back in about 3-6 months with a kazillion bucks. So long, suckers.

LMAO @ Potsmokers

Check out these survey results

Commentary - Peter Schweizer: Conservatives more honest than liberals?
Jun 2, 2008 3:00 AM (2 days ago) by Peter Schweizer, The Examiner

The headline may seem like a trick question — even a dangerous one — to ask during an election year. And notice, please, that I didn’t ask whether certain politicians are more honest than others. (Politicians are a different species altogether.) Yet there is a striking gap between the manner in which liberals and conservatives address the issue of honesty.
Consider these results:
Is it OK to cheat on your taxes? A total of 57 percent of those who described themselves as “very liberal” said yes in response to the World Values Survey, compared with only 20 percent of those who are “very conservative.” When Pew Research asked whether it was “morally wrong” to cheat Uncle Sam, 86 percent of conservatives agreed, compared with only 68 percent of liberals.
Ponder this scenario, offered by the National Cultural Values Survey: “You lose your job. Your friend’s company is looking for someone to do temporary work. They are willing to pay the person in cash to avoid taxes and allow the person to still collect unemployment. What would you do?”
Almost half, or 49 percent, of self-described progressives would go along with the scheme, but only 21 percent of conservatives said they would.
When the World Values Survey asked a similar question, the results were largely the same: Those who were very liberal were much more likely to say it was all right to get welfare benefits you didn’t deserve.
The World Values Survey found that those on the left were also much more likely to say it is OK to buy goods that you know are stolen. Studies have also found that those on the left were more likely to say it was OK to drink a can of soda in a store without paying for it and to avoid the truth while negotiating the price of a car.
Another survey by Barna Research found that political liberals were two and a half times more likely to say that they illegally download or trade music for free on the Internet.
A study by professors published in the American Taxation Association’s Journal of Legal Tax Research found conservative students took the issue of accounting scandals and tax evasion more seriously than their fellow liberal students. Those with a “liberal outlook” who “reject the idea of absolute truth” were more accepting of cheating at school, according to another study, involving 291 students and published in the Journal of Education for Business.
A study in the Journal of Business Ethics involving 392 college students found that stronger beliefs toward “conservatism” translated into “higher levels of ethical values.” And academics concluded in the Journal of Psychology that there was a link between “political liberalism” and “lying in your own self-interest,” based on a study involving 156 adults.
Liberals were more willing to “let others take the blame” for their own ethical lapses, “copy a published article” and pass it off as their own, and were more accepting of “cheating on an exam,” according to still another study in the Journal of Business Ethics.
Now, I’m not suggesting that all conservatives are honest and all liberals are untrustworthy. But clearly a gap exists in the data. Why? The quick answer might be that liberals are simply being more honest about their dishonesty.
However attractive this explanation might be for some, there is simply no basis for accepting this explanation. Validation studies, which attempt to figure out who misreports on academic surveys and why, has found no evidence that conservatives are less honest. Indeed, validation research indicates that Democrats tend to be less forthcoming than other groups.
The honesty gap is also not a result of “bad people” becoming liberals and “good people” becoming conservatives. In my mind, a more likely explanation is bad ideas. Modern liberalism is infused with idea that truth is relative. Surveys consistently show this. And if truth is relative, it also must follow that honesty is subjective.
Sixties organizer Saul Alinsky, who both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton say inspired and influenced them, once said the effective political advocate “doesn’t have a fixed truth; truth to him is relative and changing, everything to him is relative and changing. He is a political relativist.”

CBS says Castro is revolutionary hero

From Newsbusters:

They may not have food to put on their tables, but at least Cuban citizens can text message about it now.

CBS's "Early Show" gave a fairly glowing report from the May Day celebration in Havana, Cuba, May 1, on changes Cuban President Raúl Castro has made in the country. Reporter Elizabeth Palmer called the leader's brother, Fidel Castro, a "revolutionary hero." Click here for the one minute video.

How many dipshit commies are "objective jourrrrnalists? Why do real Americans keep watching CBS, NBC, & ABC? Why do they keep reading the commie newspapers? I mean, it's blatant.

Yay -- now they can use cell phones they can't afford -- I'll bet they're soooo happy. They're gonna party like it's 1965.
