Apparently, China is a Red State too

Irony.

In her new role as buck-raker extraordinaire, the darling of wingnut conservatives is pocketing a fat wad of cash from a China-based financial brokerage owned by a French banking conglomerate.

So, Sarah Palin decides it’s okay to fly to a Communist nation, take money from the French, and then attack the American President on foreign soil while making a sales pitch for Alaska.

If ANY Democrat had gone to China and bashed Bush while he was in office, they’d have been better off never coming home. Be honest.

This is shameful.

The Assclown Offensive: How to Enrage the Church of Scientology

The sad part of this story is not that reckless pranksters are targeting a cult, but that only these prankster kids are trying to take on Scientology.

Seriously, shouldn’t there be a larger outcry against these idiots? Why aren’t the Talibangelicals looking to destroy therm? They could pick up more fanatical loons from the fallen.

The Associated Press: AP source: Census worker hanged with ‘fed’ on body

This may turn out to be something else, but at the moment we’ve got a dead census worker hanging from a tree in Kentucky with the word “Fed” either drawn, painted (or carved?) on their chest.

Last I checked, it was the GOP harping about the Census Bureau and making people fear them.

Yes, these are the birds coming home to roost that were spoken of before. You speak angry anti-government speech and some inbred jackass is going to eventually take it as marching orders.

Like I said, I could be wrong here, but I suspect this might unfortunately be the beginning of an ugly, violent trend.

Daily Kos: Calling all John Galts in Georgia

Sure, obviously we should go help the folks flooded out of their homes in Georgia.

That said, this diary at DailyKos asks the question: why should we help people who believe that the federal government should be feared, hated, and possibly rebelled against.

He offers this advise to the teabagging locals:

(I)f you lost your home to the floods but you also are a follower of Boortz, Beck et al, do the right thing and decline all federal and state aid – like you urged your governor to decline stimulus funds.

So yeah, we should offer a hand as good Americans, as good Liberals as well, but we should also rub the worst offenders’ noses in it.

In another vein, as this region has been experiencing critical drought in recent years, perhaps they might consider this a good time to stop praying for rain.

Yes, I’m a jerk, but I’m tired of these hypocrites and feel real bad for their normal, sane neighbors caught up in the “punishment God is meting out for their sins” or whatever they say when liberals in New York get attacked or blacks in New Orleans gets ravaged by hurricanes.
