On the one-year anniversary of Luis Ramirez's
death, the families
of hate crime victims ask you to join their call
for justice.
On July 14, 2008, Luis Ramirez died after a group
of teenagers hurled racial epithets
and brutally beat him in Shenandoah, PA, ending
with a fatal kick to his head.
The Luis Ramirez family would like to thank you
for your support and actions you've taken
to seek justice for this loving father, son,
partner, friend, and hard-worker.
His family continues to deeply suffer their loss.
Quotes
"Barack Obama is very unpopular. He got 34
percent of the vote statewide,
and less in our district. If he were
to run for re-election today, I bet it would be even worse."
-- Rep. Dan Boren, an Okie conservative Democrat, Link
Poor Dan, he grew up funny.
His
dad always hid his homosexuality and it warped his kids.

Sessions's Hate Speech
Excerpt:
Much of the progressive blogosphere is aghast
at the embarrassing Republican strategy of putting Senator Jeff Sessions,
a man with a history of racially insensitive
statements, as the central interlocutor of a Hispanic woman. Could they
really be that stupid - again?...
Just as torture was not about getting information
but about intimidating our foes and exacting false confessions to justify
an Iraq-al Qaida link, just as attacking ACORN
was not about investigating voter fraud but about intimidating people
from going to the polls, and just as questioning
science was not about embracing Creationism but about discrediting c
limate change so polluting corporations could
continue their global plunder, Sessions going after Sotomayer’s non-existent
“bias” is not about vetting a potential Supreme
Court justice. It’s about making you afraid. It’s about making the media
afraid.
And it’s about making the Obama government afraid.
The point of putting a "racially insensitive"
white man up to question a Latina has nothing to do with bad GOP planning
and everything to do with intimidation. Republicans
know she’s getting confirmed; what they really want to do is intimidate
the White House, the media, and me and you from
embracing progressive views.

Pity the
'real Americans'
by Gene Lyons
Excerpt:
Pity the poor "real Americans," because they
sure feel sorry for themselves.
Self-pity appears to be the latest national craze.
Not that we haven't got real troubles, but everywhere you look
and listen these days, some big crybaby's blubbering
about how people like him o"r her get no respect from
(take your pick) "Ivy League elitists," the "scientific
establishment," "so-called sophisticates," the "mainstream media" and so
on.
But hey, Americans don't come any realer than
me. I learned that recently from MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski.
Discussing Palin's supporters on "The Morning
Joe," Brzezinski allowed that us country folks - I live in a
rural county with a lot more cows than people
- constitute the nation's moral backbone.
"God, I hate to say it," Brzezinski commented,
"but in the cities where there are a little bit more
liberal elite populations, you are not going
to find what is representative of America."
Sigh. We already tried that. It brought us George
W. Bush, a synthetic cowboy who dropped the rancher pose
the minute he left the White House. Back in 2001,
metropolitan pundits, seemingly unfamiliar with the oeuvre
of Hank Williams and Garth Brooks, kept telling
us about the superior moral instincts of us "redstate" voters.

"Can you imagine the consequences? We’ll
have no military. Because anytime any Soldier,
any Sailor, any Airman does not want
to follow any orders, all he has to do is call an attorney and say
'I don’t want to follow this order because
I question the legitimacy of the commander in chief.'"
-- the lawyer for Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook (R-Racist), Link
I don't get it.
This lawyer won the case for his client,
and now he's calling his victory a disaster?

Hey, Dennis, would you trade your kids' lives

No? Then stop being so Koresh damn generous with

Christ I remember how Miller used to be merciless
on people like Dan Quayle and now look at him.
My only guess is that he had some lurking prejudices

Legal pot would bring Cali $1.4B
Excerpt:
A bill to tax and regulate marijuana in California
like alcohol would generate nearly $1.4 billion in revenue,
according to tax officials. The State
Board of Equalization report estimates marijuana retail sales would
bring $990 million from a $50-per-ounce fee and
$392 million in sales taxes.
The bill introduced by San Francisco Democratic
Assemblyman Tom Ammiano in February
would allow adults 21 and older to legally possess,
grow and sell marijuana.
Ammiano has promoted the bill as a way to help
bridge the state's $26.3 billion budget shortfall.
"It defies reason to propose closing parks and
eliminating vital services for the poor while this
potential revenue is available," Ammiano said
in a statement.
But will Gov. Musclehead sign it?
"I
like two tings - da tiddies and da dope!"

Thanks for that link. The article is stunning

I couldn't put it down, and I'm sending it out

I would say uneffingbelievable except it's all
too believable; I just didn't know how big

Downside to belonging to the church of reality--there's

Subject: McCain's Palin selection
The reason Palin was selected?
Recall the last months of the McCain candidacy,
where it was out of gas and had four flat tires.
Neocons didn't like him; the Religious faction
didn't like him. Women and minorities didn't like him either.
So the religious power-brokers saw an opportunity.
Since "God speaks to his preachers" their followers vote as they are ordered.
In exchange for selecting the Vice-President
nominee, the Glory Hallelujah contingent would tell their sheep that God
has ordained
McCain to be President. They chose Palin
because
1) she's allegedly female, to attract the lost
womens vote;
2) her religious credentials are certifiably
bat-shit insane, and she is completely under their control;
3) appearance-wise, she makes the redneck males
"touch themselves";
4) she is young enough to be around for decades.
If (as they hoped) McCain "tipped over" in the
next few years, they would have a complient
shoe-in candidate under their complete control
to institute a Christian Reconstructionist Theocracy.
McCain, watching his spluttering campaign grind
to a halt, grudgingly made the deal, in spite of not having vetted her
or even knowing anything about her. He
detested those people, but it was the only way he could reach his ultimate
goal.
Gritting his teeth, he lied to the Republican
Convention and told the crowd that Palin was the "most qualified candidate".
For a few short days, it looked like she was
the miracle that would allow the Repigs to win the election.
Then she opened her mouth. Thre rest is
history.

Media jostled
whored for access to Sanford
The whore media shoqws their true colors
Excerpt:
National media blitzed Gov. Mark Sanford’s staff,
offering big ratings and, possibly, a sympathetic venue
in an effort to land the first interview with
the governor after his six-day trip to Argentina.
In addition, a blogger and state leaders reached
out to Sanford’s office to try to coordinate a way
to “push back” on the growing mystery surrounding
Sanford’s absence.
The behind-the-scenes maneuvering is detailed
in e-mails released by the governor’s office
this week in response to The State’s request
under the freedom of information act.
The e-mails show some outlets promised Sanford
“friendly ground,” while others objected
to early reports that questioned his disappearance.
“If you all want to speak on this publicly, you’re
welcome to Washington Times Radio,” wrote staffer
Joseph Deoudes to a Sanford spokesman on June
23. "You know that you will be on friendly ground here!'
They're following in Tim the Whore's footprints.
"I'll help you lie if you give me the exclusive."
It's going to be 100+ degrees again in Oklahoma today.
I wonder how hot it is in Hell?

Bill Maher on Sex Scandals
Excerpt:
I think he looks very good next to all the other
cheating politicians we've seen in recent years...
We're so accustomed to Bill Clinton with Monica
Lewinsky, John Edwards and Eliot Spitzer.
You know, all these politicians, Ensign as you
mentioned, and it's always just sleazy.
They're just having sex with the easiest roadkill
they can find. It's just, you know,
'Oh my god, the door just closed, my wife's in
the other room, come over here and touch me.'
It's this very sleazy quick kind of sex, and
this guy Sanford, you know, I tell you, he could win
women back if he just went to this mistress because
obviously that's who he loves. I mean,
that's the third act of the movie.

Idiot America:
How Stupidity Became a Virtue
I haven't read this book, but from the reviews,
it'll read like I wrote it.
"We've moved into an era in which stupidity
is celebrated if it made people money.
That is 'glorifying ignorance.' The reflexive
instincts of the Gut are celebrated
at the expense of reasoned, informed opinion."
Handjobs like Bush and Palin are VERY proud of their ignorance.
They mock "the elites" which is anyone smarter than them

Subject: C Street and Republicans
bart,
So, now with Chip Pickering (Racist-Mississippi)
being shown up as another Family Values Republican
and that the fact that he, along with Sanford,
Coburn et al, has ties to this C Street Christian bachelors' pad,
C Street must stand for Cock Street. There
must be some weird, wild, freaky-ass shit that goes on at that place.
To paraphrase the following as if I worked at
Fox News, " a Christian Bible study...some... members of Congress hard...
And I've been working them...in the back of the
room. I would consider him a...giant." Larry Craig must
hang out,
oops strike that, be a frequent visitor
too.
QUESTION: Did your wife and your family know about the affair before the trip to Argentina?
SANFORD: Yes. We've been working through
this thing for about the last five months. I've been to a lot
of different—as part of what we called "C Street"
when I was in Washington. It was, believe it or not,
a Christian Bible study—some folks that asked
members of Congress hard questions that I think were
very, very important. And I've been working with
them. I see Cubby Culbertson in the back of the room.
I would consider him a spiritual giant. . . .

Conservative
group's Whoredom
Pricks offer endorsement for $2M
Excerpt:
The American Conservative Union asked FedEx for
a check for $2 million to $3 million in return for the group’s
endorsement in a bitter legislative dispute,
then the group’s president flipped and sided with UPS after FedEx refused
to pay.
For the $2 million plus, ACU offered a range of
services that included: “Producing op-eds and articles
written by ACU’s Chairman David Keene and/or
other members of the ACU’s board of directors.
The conservative group’s remarkable demand — black-and-white
proof of the longtime Washington practice
known as “pay for play” — was contained in a
private letter to FedEx , which was provided to POLITICO.
The letter exposes the practice by some political
interest groups of taking stands not for reasons of pure principle,
as their members and supporters might assume,
but also in part because a sponsor is paying big money.
You mean some people in Washington sell themselves for money?
Why didn't anybody point that out before now?

Hottest TV Hot Tub Scenes

Hot tubs are the required accessory for almost
