I’m not saying you should watch this. I’m saying if you can stand the prospect of an actual evil person getting screwed over by his own words on national television, then I’m linking you to that interview.
But seriously, this Cohen guy is the worst of our species and exactly the reason I don’t trust religion or Republicans for the most part.
I swear, I really don’t get the Palin fan base. Why all the love for someone who constantly reminds us what a full-blown moron she is.
Seriously, this latest bit just hurts the brain.
Meanwhile, it turns out the college aged Palin ran away from Hawaii Pacific University because it had too many minorities. No, I’m not making this up. Of course, her next college was in the lily white (supremacist) land of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
Meanwhile, in an unusual twist, FAUXNews is concerned about health care reform not covering abortions because, wait for it, it might lead to a rise of “more low-income babies”.
Of course, I’m sure their concern is about the color of said low-income babies. Gasp!
Surprise! A Senate report has “discovered” that Donald Rumsfeld’s idiotic military planning allowed bin Laden to escape Afghanistan. Seriously, why aren’t any of these people doing time?
People look to these imbeciles for guidance and information. Incredible!

(W)e were forced to take those steps largely without the help of an opposition party which, unfortunately, after having presided over the decision-making that led to the crisis, decided to hand it over to others to solve.
– President Obama, calling out Republicans for creating the mess they are yelling at him for trying to fix
More please. The President gave a speech on the economy and what he hopes to do to help it along. In it, he acknowledged – finally – that Republicans have done nothing but try to obstruct anything he tries to do to fix their screwups.
Seriously, until they start playing a part in fixing the country they broke, call them out on it. They weren’t going to support you anyway.
Here’s a good roundup article on the bizarre and blasphemous attempts by conservatives to destroy Christianity and mold it into their own hate-filled, bigoted creation.
So these guys are fine with Saudi intolerance, polygamist FLDS child diddlers, repression of basically anyone but they really, really feel that God is too tolerant of people and his words need rewritten.
Genius!
“Americans have no sense of community welfare, no willingness to be discomforted in the least for the greater good of the entire population.”
– British woman lamenting our health care system to the author
Here’s a reasoned and moral editorial on the need for health care reform from a former surgeon. Give it a read please.
Not that I am surprised but it turns out that during the Reign of Bush the Justice Department was either actively told to ignore or actively thwarted from addressing civil rights abuses. Yes, that’s right, even Bush, who I probably think isn’t a racist, couldn’t help himself from the GOP mantra that racism doesn’t exist because it isn’t happening to them.
So now evidence that they truly were trying to set folks up as second- or third-class citizens.
In similar news, a Judge upheld the Voting Rights Act which protects minority groups from having their votes taken from them. The suit was filed by, you guessed it, the Republican National Committee. Sadly the judge did weaken the act somewhat, which is something we should all be on the lookout for.
Actually, I believe in karma and irony and I actually hope that the Voting Rights Act becomes weakened. You know, so maybe it becomes completely irrelevant and useless come the day that angry racist white Republicans actually need it to protect their access to the franchise. Yes, that’s a dirty evil Republican thing to say but it would serve the anti-American bastards right.
And you thought the US had cornered the market on bigotry. Turns out we are pikers compared to the Swiss. Yeah, I know, the “we don’t want war, please buy our chocolates and watches” Swiss.
They decided to ban the building of any more minarets of any new mosques in Switzerland. This isn’t some kind of parlimentarian kidnapping of democracy, this is a referendum passed by the apparently goose-stepping public itself.
Apparently, like in America, religious expression in fine for the Swiss – as long as it has a cross attached to it. I mean, I am down with religion in general these days, but more for how it is being abused by terror-loving asshats of all stripes than for the message of subservient and blinded dogma it provides. Apparently the Swiss, and all Europeans writ large apparently, are going to have a debate on their xenophobia.
Remember folks, it is YOUR job to reign in the crazy bastards using your religion to start wars, kill children, oppress others who don’t think, act, look or love like you. Whether you are responsible for al-Qaeda or Talibangelical speaking in the name of Muhammad or Jesus, stop the hatemongers in your ranks lest you be labelled as them as well.
Want to know why I don’t do to Church anymore? It is because all I see are racist hatemongers who tell me my dog is going to hell because he’s been microchipped. Fix your own house before you worry about the prayer tower going up on the house next door.
