Posted by Moonage on 30 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host, Idiot of the day

Well, Westboro did show up the funeral of Sgt. Charles Jason Jones in London, which is very close to my home town. I sent them a message telling them their message wasn’t wanted here, but they came anyway, sorta. Here’s what their protest looked like:

That’s pretty much it. A couple of adults [...]

Boycotting Chavez - How to Buy American ( Sorta )

Posted by Moonage on 29 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: International Issues

GOP and the City has an incredible post on who is boycotting Citgo, and how you can too by buying "American".
However, for me, the most useful thing they have is a link to "How To Buy American".  It contains a list of gas suppliers and their country of origin.  Pretty dang cool and not [...]

The cheapest political trick going

Posted by Moonage on 27 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Political Correctness

The guy who accused George Allen of using the N word now states unequivically he never heard George Allen use the N word.  Instead, he now uses deductive reasoning to justify his claim:
My conclusion is based on the very credible testimony I have heard for weeks, mainly from people I personally know and knew in [...]

Westboro Baptist Church is visiting

Posted by Moonage on 27 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

The most disgusting group of Americans I know of are planning on visitng near my home town this Saturday.  They are the people that think carrying signs to funerals saying things like "God Hates Fags", "Thank God for Dead Soldiers", or "Thank God for IED’s" is a good thing.  I sent them a message on [...]

Re-writing history from the bully pulpit

Posted by Moonage on 25 Sep 2006 | Tagged as: Comments from the Host

Bill Clinton was on Fox New Sunday yesterday. Chris Wallace asked him why he didn’t do more to get Osama Bin Laden. Clinton went off. In usual Clinton fashion, he totally dodged the question by accusing Chris of being part of the vast Fox wing conspiracy.  The evidence of his accusation was Chris Wallace had [...]

Bin Laden Dead Again?

The U.S. government is unable to confirm a French newspaper report that al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is believed to have died last month in Pakistan, a U.S. counterterrorism official said on Saturday.
"We cannot confirm the account," said the official, who declined to be identified because he was not authorized to speak publicly about [...]

Nixing Certificate of Need laws

Three men accused of trying to dig up a young woman’s body to have sex with it had charges of attempted sexual assault dismissed Friday by a judge who noted Wisconsin has no law against necrophilia.
Grant County Circuit Judge George Curry dismissed those charges against twins Nicholas and [...]
