Crazy bastard, wasn't it Jesus himself who said, "You cannot serve two masters?"
You certainly cannot worship common sense and the Invisible Cloud Being at the same time.

Hannity
caught robbing charity
by Debbie Schlussel
Excerpt:
For the last several years, Sean Hannity and
the Freedom Alliance "charity" have conducted "Freedom Concerts"
across America. They say they are raising money
to pay for the college tuition of the children of fallen soldiers and
to pay severely wounded war vets...But it’s all
a huge scam. In fact, less than 20%–and in two recent years, less than
7% and 4%, respectively–of the money raised by
Freedom Alliance went to these causes, while millions of dollars went
to expenses, including consultants and apparently
to ferry the Hannity posse of family and friends in high style. And...few
of the children of fallen soldiers got more than
$1,000-$2,000, with apparently none getting more than $6,000, while
Freedom Alliance appears to have spent tens of
thousands of dollars for private planes. Moreover, despite written
assurances to donors that all money raised would
go directly to scholarships for kids of the fallen heroes and not to
expenses, has begun charging expenses of nearly
$500,000 to give out just over $800,000 in scholarships.
Of course, the Democrats will let this go because listing the facts
is impolite.

despicable things I have ever heard of.
It seems that "patriotic" right-wing demagogue
Sean Hannity, who lies INCESSANTLY about every public issue imaginable,
has been SCAMMING MONEY FROM HIS PHONY "VETERANS
CHARITY". The shocking details are here:

It's time we showed grifters like Hannity that
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! How could ANYONE leech money
from generous donors, intended for wounded vets,
and channel it into his own pockets?
Spread the word on this folks: it's time to bring

Subject: Catholic Child Sex Scandals Supports Atheism
I have a message for my believing friends and
it's something that believers should think about.
As a realist who doesn't believe in God I am
often challenged to open my heart and let Jesus in.
I am reluctant to do so without any evidence
that God exists.
I am told that when one becomes a believer that
they have a personal relationship with God and
the God transforms you and you become one with
the Lord. So from my point of view I should be
able to see the difference in the behavior of
those who believe as compared to those who don't believe.
But I'm not seeing it.
Especially in the latest news coming out about
the sexual abuse of children in the Catholic Church.
If there is an omnipotent God, you wouldn't be
raping children - period! The Catholic Church would not
be covering up for those priests who are raping
children. Admittedly, this doesn't prove that God doesn't exist,
but it does prove that the Catholic Church does
not have a personal relationship with an omnipotent God,
because if they did this sort of thing simply
would not occur.
Turning to your Bible the standard is "You will
know them by their fruits." Clearly the Catholics have
failed the "fruit test" because of the pervasive
raping of children and the cover up by the Vatican.
As to the rest of the believers, you aren't
going to convert Atheists unless you can show us that God
actually has transformed your life in a way that
is observable to the reality based world. Even if God can't be
observed directly, if you claim God has changed
your life then those changes should be observable in your life
and in your religious group as a whole. And if
these changes aren't observable then we in the reality based
community aren't going to listen to what you
have to say. If you are going to convert Atheists you are going
to have to pass your "Fruit Test" to get our
attention.

A shot of Chinaco to Obama for his limited success.
Victory
in Iraq at last?
by William Rivers Pitt
Excerpt:
That is the cover of Newsweek from the first
week of March, the month in which we will mark the
seventh anniversary of the invasion and occupation
of Iraq. It was 2,555 days ago this Saturday, in fact,
when televisions all across America lit up with
the pyrotechnic images of "Shock and Awe," when
explosions and fire roared over the city of Baghdad,
when men, women and children were incinerated,
when we all became war criminals whether we liked
it or not.
The article behind that triumphalist cover argued
that this last election in Iraq is proof positive our war
has at long last borne the fruits of true democracy
in that nation, wiping the bloody slate clean and
expunging all the grievous errors and tragedies
which preceded it. A nice storyline, that, but it's one
we've heard a number of times before. Remember
the ink-stained fingers held up by Iraqis after one such
election? Those who pushed for war declared that
to be Victory at Last, too. It wasn't. Neither is this.

Subject: Re: Survivor is being pre-empted - for f-ing basketball.
Bart: It's all about the money! There's
BIG money in sports, and this is the NCAA Tournament.
MARCH MADNESS, don't you know?
Besides Eldrick, is there anything more
hyped than "March Madness?" Those idiot announcers
get wood talking about "the
sweet sixteen Cinderella is going to the prom."
The whole thing makes me want to f-ing hurl.
Besides, there a a whole bunch of us who would
rather watch a good college basketball game
than all the lying, cheating, and back-stabbing
that goes on every week among those a**holes on Survivor.
You like politics but you hate the lying, cheating, and back-stabbing?
Survivor is real in that if you and 19 others
were stranded on an island with no food and no matches
and no blankets, etc, you'd have to find a way
to elect a boss or you'd probably die within days.
College basketball is little more than amateurs
squeaking their shoes for two hours..
I've often wondered if Survivor isn't scripted.
I've often wondered why basketball is considered
a sport.
When I got to see LeBron James, at least I got
to see a brother fly.
College basketball is little more than missed
shots and personal fouls.
It's my Kentucky team that pre-empted Survivor,
so don't put any hex on us.
To each his own.
Bill in Versailles, KY
If you turned on your sports channel to watch
two hours of squeaking shoes and got
an episode of Survivor, instead, I doubt
if you would say, "To each his own."
There are 1,000 channels.
CBS should buy a sports channel and telecast
the squeaking sillyness there.
Oh well, CBS will be out of business soon and it won't be a problem.
Note:
Because of f-ing basketball, CBS pushed back The Amazing Race
so Mrs Bart missed that.
She lost Race and Survivor in the same week - she is
not happy.

Quotes
"Sen. John Ensign (R) of Nevada is caught in
a truly humiliating sex scandal -- and remember, the media
generally loves political sex scandals --
involving a shameless hypocrite, who ran on a 'family-values' platform,
committing adultery with one of his own aides,
who happens to be married to another aide. The scandal involves
the immediate affair, plus alleged ethics
violations, hush money, and official corruption. And yet, no media frenzy.
No reporters staked out in front of Ensign's
home. No op-eds speculating about the need for Ensign to resign in
disgrace. Republicans...have demanded higher
moral standards of all of us, while failing to meet these standards
themselves -- and failing to ostracize the
guilty from their ranks. It's quite a racket, which the media encourages
by playing along."

Teabaggers, beholden to GOP?
Excerpt:
Some Teabaggers say they can pinpoint the moment
when they made it clear to the GOP
that they had no intention of being its lapdog.
That sentence is more poorly constructed than
a Haiti orphanage.
Bartcop says he can point to the exact moment
when he flew to the Moon.
In February, Michael Tom Steele met with more
than 50 Teabaggers. Steele had invited them to the Capitol Hill Club,
built as a clubhouse for the party's top brass
next door to RNC headquarters. Not long into the meeting JoAnn Abbott,
a Teabagger who calls herself the 'Tea Party
Grandma,' raised her hand to ask a question.
She asked about an RNC web page where visitors
could send a member of Congress a postcard with a tea bag.
On the tag at the end of the string were the
letters 'RNC.'
"While we do not have a trademark on the tea bag,
people associate it with the Tea Party movement,"
Abbott told Steele. "If you co-opt that image,
you damage our brand and weaken our movement."
What a crock of shit.
Fifty people show up for free booze and that constitutes "a movement?"
And damage your brand?
You mean there's something left to damage after you invited The Publicity

Benny the Rat led cover-up
Excerpt:
The Pope played a leading role in a systematic
cover-up of child sex abuse by Roman Catholic priests,
according to a shocking documentary to be screened
by the BBC tonight.
In 2001, while he was a cardinal, he issued a
secret Vatican edict to Catholic bishops all over the world,
instructing them to put the Church's interests
ahead of child safety.
The document recommended that rather than reporting
sexual abuse to the relevant legal authorities,
bishops should encourage the victim, witnesses
and perpetrator not to talk about it. And, to keep victims quiet,
it threatened that if they repeat the allegations
they would be excommunicated.
Before being elected Pope, the pontiff was Tommy
the Rat who had, for 24 years, been the head of the
powerful Congregation of the Doctrine of The
Faith, the department of the Roman Catholic Church charged
with promoting Catholic teachings on morals and
matters of faith. An arch-Conservative, he was regarded as
the 'enforcer' of Pope John Paul II in cracking
down on liberal challenges to traditional Catholic teachings.
Liberals aren't into raping children - so Benny (or Tommy, at the time) hates liberals.
Benny the Rat is Cheney in a skirt.
He was the previous Pope's enforcer.

Subject: Adolf Eichmann's Files May Reveal Secrets
Excerpt:
The basics of Adolf Eichmann's story are well
documented: Known as the "architect of the Holocaust"
for his role in coordinating the Nazi genocide
policy, he fled Germany, was captured in Argentina by
Israel's Mossad, and hanged after trial in Jerusalem.
But Germany's intelligence service, the BND, is
sitting on 4,500 pages of files on Eichmann a reporter
thinks could fill in gaps about his postwar life:
Who helped him escape? How much did Germany know
about where he was? Is there more to the story
of his capture?
The files could also help shed light on claims
that the Vatican helped war criminals hide or escape
after World War II – allegations church officials
have always strenuously denied.
Plus, no telling what secrets are in there about Hitler's banker - Prescott Bush.

Are Boy Scouts Catholics, too?
Excerpt:
The Boy Scouts have long kept an extensive archive
of secret documents that chronicle the sexual abuse
of young boys by Scout leaders over the years.
The "perversion files," a nickname the Boy Scouts use for the
documents, have rarely been seen by the public,
but that could all change in the coming weeks in an Oregon courtroom.
The lawyer for a man who was molested by a Scout
leader has obtained about 1,000 Boy Scouts sex files
and is expected to release some of them at a
trial that began Wednesday. The lawyer says the files show how
the Boy Scouts have covered up abuse for decades.
