I’m totally gonna find some way to visit the Genghis Khan tourist trap at some point in my life.

Think Progress » Woman yells ‘Heil Hitler’ to Jewish man praising Israel’s national health care system.
Folks, the Reich Wing has come to Vegas.
Here’s the video to the event:
Basically, since John Ensign is hiding from the public and Harry Reid doesn’t have a spine – and Lord knows what our Reps are doing – we haven’t had any of the town hall bullshit here. At least until a local racist radio shitheel decided to hold one – in a country/western dance hall.
No, I’m not kidding.
While there, a proper Rethug begins launching into Hilter chants while trying to shout down a Jewish man speaking.
That, in a nutshell, is the Republican Party folks. When something doesn’t go their way, call everyone a commie, bring out the Nazism, and kick in the racial slur machine. Add a dose of angry religion even Jesus wouldn’t recognize as anything he’d ever said and turn the volume up to 11.
Somehow this works. I don’t know why. You’d think people would raise their children to learn that throwing a tantrum is not adult behavior. You’d think people would raise their kids to not be bigoted jerks either. Then again, I guess you’d call those folks anything but Republican.
UPDATE: According to DailyKos, the lady is ironically wearing an Israeli Defense Forces t-shirt. So much for that pro-Israel policy. Or as the posting goes:
Apparently the wingnut love affair with Israel goes only as far as getting Israelis killed in the race to the Rapture.
When an Israeli wants to talk about health care, it’s right back to “Heil Hitler.”
….Now, why does an American wingnut wear an IDF t-shirt to a health care event? To prove wingnut bona fides, of course. But… first thing out of her mouth when she meets a real Israeli? “Heil Hitler!”
A Jew disagrees with her. The mask comes off.
Points for playing are targets of thieves — often casino employees – Las Vegas Sun
A look at one type of crime you only see related to a casino town.
You’d be amazed how much theft comes into play concerning tickets and player cards. Every casino I’ve ever done a project at has some story related to the problem.
New poll reveals Ensign’s status sinking – News – ReviewJournal.com
Granted, the Review-Journal is probably one of the most conservative daily papers I’ve ever read – and no, I very, very rarely pay money for that rag – but even the local conservathugs are beginning to find John Ensign to be a piece of crap.
That said, most of them think he should not resign. Hooray for flexible Republican morals!

Hypocritical bastards.
What if the other high heel drops in Ensign scandal? : Knappster :: Las Vegas CityLife
Local investigative reporter George Knapp wonders what is next in the Senator Scumbag Ensign saga.
It’s a more involved list than you think.

The Recession and the American Airline Industry
Alright, seriously, I need a chart category.
Check out this helpful list of airline fees. See how the airlines are gouging you.
And – oh yeah – I just heard this on the way in to work. The bigger airlines are starting to jack up rates again.

Honey, I Shrunk the Maldives
Pithy headline but a serious article concerning the potential demise of some of our natural wonders.
In a similar vein, I saw that Frommer’s has put out 500 Places to See Before They Disappear, which might not be a bad read once Gabriel is better suited for travel.
Marriage a choice, just like religion – Las Vegas Sun
Thank God not all of Vegas is infiltrated by Talibangelicals. Give this a read and be sure to down some painkillers before starting in on the comments.
I truly wish that those bigoted hatemongers who supposedly speak for the Almighty would kindly shut the hell up and let actual caring folks speak for their religion.
Not that I’m holding my breath or anything….
Charity begins at home at the expense of your convictions
So, I read this article about a woman who is forcing her belief system on others so much that it is now going to cost some charities a LOT of money. AND SHE’S NOT DONE! People, convince others to change their minds through dialogue, not by twisting their arms in fascist fashion.
In other news, Galva seems to remain in the dark but folks seem to be okay. Brenda says their house got a little roughed up, but so did a lot of others.
