Minuteman group arrested for murdering family

You probably won’t hear this on TV or read it in the news, but apparently we’ve had a THIRD incident of conservative terrorism.

Shooting a doctor in church and trying to assassinate a crowd in the Holocaust museum wasn’t enough for these guys.

Now, they’ve taken to race-based home invasion and murder. Three Minuteman terrorists staged a drug raid on a Latino family and rob them. But just for the hell of it, they decided to execute them, presumably for the color of their skin. This included shooting an eight year old girl.

The mother of the family survived and called the police. Bonus vengeance: she found a gun and shot one of the attackers when they returned to check that everyone was dead. Bonus bonus: she shot the one named Bush. Just saying.

Here is an actual news article on this. The local racists originally thought this was a race-on-race attack. Because, you know, all Mexicans are murderers.

More hate in Arizona: Volunteer-Humanitarian Convicted of Littering while “Trying to Save Lives”

Following on the Minuteman terrorist story I just posted comes this story of a decent human being who has been charged with littering for leaving water in the desert for illegal aliens crossing – let me say it again – THE DESERT!

Fish and Wildlife Service officers confiscated the water as, you know, it’s the compassionate conservative thing to do.

U.S. Neocons Favor Ahmadinejad in Iranian Election

Just to be against the voices of moderation and change (even by Iranian approved standards) the Rethugs were in favor of Ahmadinejad winning the election.

Granted, the apparently thievery of the vote in his name now makes him the illegitimate bastard brother of Bush, but the irony of that seems to be lost on both Mahmoud and the neocons as well.

So, in a nutshell, the hardcore conservatives are in favor of a guy who wants to wipe Israel off the map, and they still claim the guy who shot up the Holocaust museum isn’t one of their’s?

Morons.

Republican Hero: James von Brunn (Right Wing Terrorist of the Week)

Last week we were subjected to a Rethug terrorist who assassinated a doctor. In church.

This week, we are confronted with a Racist Republican who stormed the Holocaust Museum in DC and wanted to kill as many as he could but was shot by a guard, who later died. James von Brunn is this asshat’s name, and he has a history of hate. Talking Points Memo has some more at their right wing extremism section, as does HuffPo.

Once again, Republicans who can’t win at the ballot box (even by cheating) believe they HAVE to control the conversation. So instead of trying to make winning arguments and policies, they resort to killing those who don’t agree with them. More to the point, killing those they HATE.

Honestly, if my choice in an election was a bag of dog crap and a Republican, I’d vote for the poop.

Why I don’t pay for the local Vegas paper

First off, I love newspapers. I even read the rural conservative ones we got in Illinois just to get the local news.

However, the piece of crap we are stuck with here in Las Vegas, the Review-Journal is a hate-filled, ultra-conservative piece of dogshit. And that’s me being polite about it.

Today’s opinion pages had this insult to intelligence bashing the TARP plan. Look, there are a lot of reasons not to like bailing out corrupt bankers, but none of the ones in this editorial applies. In fact, it seems to have been written by a fifth grade kid stuck in a Republican household trying to impress his Klan daddy.

What’s worse is when they borrow syndicated info from folks like the psycho/idiot goons at the Reverend Moon’s Washington Times. The RJ wasn’t even brave enough to link this on their own site so I had to go find it. Whoever this Diana West is, she appears to be a vile, dirty piece of excrement, at least according to this commentary. And as filthy as she is, she’s even prouder of the Time‘s Frank Gaffney who delight in mischaracterizing our president as some low-rent al-Qaeda wannabe.

These animals should be glad that progressives and liberals are not as fearful and hateful as they are. Otherwise they’d probably already be renditioned and treated to some of the lovely torture they get all wet and hard for.

Grand Old Terrorists

“When left-wing extremists burn down a ski lodge or free lab animals, they’re called eco-terrorists and they’re investigated and prosecuted under terrorism laws. When a right-wing extremist kills a doctor, he’s charged with murder.”

– Reddit comment on Scott Roeder only being charged for murder

I find it bizarre that you can perform an assassination in this country and only be up for murder charges. That is, only if you are doing the bidding of the Talibangelical terrorists. Call this what it is: terrorism, and go after the people that motivate, fund, and support these freaks.

This crap doesn’t belong in America and the less Roeders and McVeighs we have in this country, the better off we’ll all be.

Meanwhile, a lawyer in Philly cheers on a mob of vigilantes who beat up a guy accused of rape. Oh, yes, they beat up the wrong guy. I heard this at lunch and was sickened to see this crap.

Look, 24 is a pornographic torture lovers show. It is FICTION. And hey, I enjoyed watching Boondock Saints but I’m pretty sure I’d move out from anywhere that used it as a basis for a justice system.

I don’t get conservatives and their hatred of due process, of their need to torture and kill regardless of the facts. And they have the balls to call themselves patriots? Maybe if they stop using the Constitution as asswipe and read their bibles instead of using it as a coffee table prop, they’d realize how wrong they are.

Psst…GOP. The racists are in your mirrors every morning.

“Rush Limbaugh is in the news. Last week, Rush Limbaugh said that Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor was a racist. But this week, Rush says he may support her. Yeah. Limbaugh says that he can’t support Sotomayor until he’s 100% sure she’s a racist.”

– Conan O’Brien

You really gotta hand it to these Rethugs. The circular logic is painful to behold.

Here is what Okies think of the Sotomayor nomination:

I am SO glad I don’t live there anymore.

Well done.

Rush Limbaugh’s new low – Joan Walsh – Salon.com

Rush Limbaugh. STILL a huge piece of shit. Honestly, I saw Ann Coulter on CBS this morning (they’ve also had RimJob on recently) and I don’t get it. Why should anyone pretending to be a respectable news agency have these folks on? It’s like trying to get a legitimate viewpoint from Andy Dick. You *might* get something, but odds are you’re going to have to wade through a lot of crap first.
