Arkansas's Unconstitutional Law
Worse, they know it's unconstitutional
Link
Lawyers from both sides of the abortion debate have acknowledged that an Arkansas bill
that bans terminations after 12 weeks is likely to be struck down in the courts.
A vote by the Republican-dominated Arkansas legislature gave the state the most restrictive
abortion laws in the US. Lawmakers voted to override Governor Mike Beebe's veto of the bill.
Beebe, a Democrat, has warned that the measure will end up wasting taxpayers' money
because the state will likely opt not to defend them in court.
The ACLU has vowed to sue, in order to block the 12-week ban from becoming law.
The bill will not take effect until late June at the earliest.
Why do reactionary Republicans spend so much time and money
in a contest to see who can get the farthest to the right?
You watch: South Carolina will soon pass a bill outlawing abortion at 10 weeks
and then Indiana will pass a bill outlawing abortion at 8 weeks.
Of course, the Democrats will refuse to make them pay for wasting so much time and money.

Subject: Jon Stewart
Bart,
Jon Stewart has earned the right to pursue what ever artistic flight of fancy he so chooses.
I never said he had no right to direct a movie.
I said, on its surface and without any explanation, it seems like a really dumb move.
Would you like a list of TV stars who walked away from a gold mine, then spent
the rest of their miserable lives asking, "How could I have been so fucking stupid?"
Odds are you don't even know who McLean Stevenson is.
While at first glance, the project seems entirely too complex and out of grasp for someone
with little to no experience in film making. Then again, this is Jon Stewart we're talking about.
I'm sure he's going into this with a full complement of highly talented people on every level of production.
To do a movie about being tortured in Iran?
If he was doing Cabin Boy, it might make some sense.
Rest assured, he knows exactly what he's doing. That show after he comes back will be the highest rated
in the show's history and will further establish him as one of the most influential political satirist we've ever known.
Here's some food for thought. Before you go giving career advice to a guy who's been riding the crest of wave of
success for almost 14 years, maybe re-design your website so it doesn't look like it's from 1995, K?
K.
Ouch!
That'll teach me to have an opinion.

Rand (R-Showboat) takes a Stand
Handjob performs stand-up for twelve hours
"I'm going to speak until someone
finds me a good hair-straightener."
Link
Five hours into Rand Paul’s self-important filibuster, hapless Harry Reid came to the floor
to try to end the tawdry affair, asking whether Senator Jackass would settle for going only
30 more minutes before the chamber voted to confirm the new CIA director.
Nothing doing, said Mr. Paul — not until he got assurances from the Obama administration
that it will not use drones to kill Americans on U.S. soil.
Irritable and Fabulous call Rand 'Ridiculous"
Openly gay couple tag-team up on the self-important handjob
Link
Republican lovers John McCain and Lindsey Graham were more wordy in their attempt to undo
questions Paul raised about U.S. foreign policy. They argued that Paul's filibuster "cheapens the
serious discussion about US policy to the realm of the ridiculous."
"If Mr. Paul wants to be taken seriously, he needs to do more than pull political stunts that fire up
impressionable libertarian kids in their college dorms," McCain, R-Ariz., said borrowing quotes from
a Whore Street Journal editorial this morning that similarly blasted the Kentucky handjob's stunt.
Paul is trying to raise his profile with the stunt, a stepping stone to Paul running for president in 2016.
Irritable and Fabulous's message to their colleagues today was, "calm down, Senator."
"Mr. Holder is right," McCain said, "the US government cannot randomly target American citizens on
US soil or anywhere else. I repeat that, the US government cannot randomly target American citizens
on US soil or anywhere else."

Subject: Military rape
Bart, in the early 70's, I was a soldier just out of training, stationed in south Florida.
I had a headquarters job, basically a clerk. Down the hall, in another office, an adorable
young woman was assigned to the public information office. She was pretty gung-ho
about the military, but otherwise a delight to be around. When she disappeared, but was
not declared AWOL, I went and asked the battalion level intel officer why nobody seemed
to care where she was. He told me "she just went home, don't worry about it".
I was a very naive young man of 18 years, and still held these warriors of a bygone day in high esteem.
Now it seems crystal clear not only what happened to her , but who was responsible.
PEACE
JL
Military rape, I suppose, has been a perk for soldiers since time began.
Maybe that's why men start so many wars.
You not only get to rape your fellow soldiers
but you get to rape all those unlucky locals, too.

Ignoring The Sequester’s Truths
by Gene Lyons
Link
Republican strategy during the sequestration fight depends upon two political givens:
widespread public ignorance, and the extreme reluctance of the traditional Washington
news media to exhibit “liberal bias” by stressing inconvenient facts. After all, aren’t
“both sides” equally responsible for the current budgetary impasse? And shouldn’t
Obama lead by making the GOP the proverbial offer it can’t refuse?
Exactly what such an offer might consist of remains vague. Mostly, it’s coulda, shoulda,
woulda stuff from celebrity pundits like Bob Woodward, who spent much of last week on
national TV demonstrating that he can’t distinguish a warning from an apology.
“You do not ever have to apologize to me,” Woodward had responded to an allegedly
intimidating email from longtime White House source, Gene Sperling. “I also welcome
your personal advice. I am listening.”
Wow, that must have been scary!

Bart: how can you be for the drone strikes but against waterboarding?
I mean, which is worse-dunking a guy's head in water or killing someone from high above in the air?
Could it be that you support the drones because your guy Obama is doing it,
as opposed to who you like to call "Der Monkey Fuhrer"?
Pat R.
I support fewer planes being blown out of the sky.
I doubt that, after Obama gives the order to take a bomb-maker out,
he asks for a video of it so he can masturbate to it.
Are you really surprised that I support killing our enemies in wartime?

Subject: Taylor Swift
Bart,
I think you are a little over the top with the following statement,
"Besides, she's only 23 and has already slept with more men than Paris Hilton.
Maybe she should install a governor on her vajayjay?"
I'm not sure how you know the number of men each of them have slept with.
Have you got any proof?
That was an attempt at humor that I'm not sure found its target.
If you are going to be posting "tasteful" photos of her, shouldn't you be tasteful as well?
Robert
The target I was trying to hit is this one:
Paris Hilton is the biggest slut in the history of show business - that goes without saying,
but young Taylor Swift can have several "boyfriends" a year and wave those relationships in
everybody's face and make millions from them and still retain her "vestal virgin" status.
On the other hand, can I be funny if I never go too far?

Subject: Eric Holder should go
Of all the people in Obama's cabinet, his biggest loser is Attorney General Eric Holder.
What planet does this guy come from?
He sells guns to Mexican drug lords (fast and furious), while busting medical marijuana clinics
that are legal under state law. He advises the President that he doesn't have the power under the
14th Amendment to raise the debt limit but he does have the power to send killer robots (drones)
to kill Americans on American soil without even so much as a warrant. And when it comes to
prosecuting the bankers who committed fraud and crashed the economy, it seems that too big
to fail has become too big to jail.
During the savings and loan crisis in the 1980s Reagan sent 700 bankers to prison.
Eric Holder is a loser and if Obama is going to have the respect of either party
it's time he got rid of him and get someone competent in there.
Eric Holder makes Obama look crazier than Bush.

Warren: Bust Druggie Banks
Obama won't do it - unless it's pot or poker
Link
Elizabeth Warren is demanding answers from top banking regulators over the possibility
of shuttering financial firms that flout federal anti-money laundering laws or violate
international trade sanctions.
Referencing the penalties leveled against HSBC after the company was caught funnelling
billions in drug money, Warren questioned regulators about why they did not consider
forcing the British bank to shut its doors on U.S. soil.
“What does it take?” Warren said. “How many billions of dollars do you have to launder for drug lords?
Regulators fined the company $1.9 billion over the laundering, but Warren questioned why
no criminal prosecutions were aimed at the company or its employees, saying they were not
being held to the same standard as common Americans.
“If you’re caught with an ounce of cocaine, the chances are good you go to jail. If you’re
caught repeatedly, you can go to jail for life,” Warren told banking regulators. “Incidentally,
if you launder nearly a billion dollars in drug money, your company pays a fine and you
go home and sleep in your own bed at night.”
You mean the super-rich don't get the same justice that us poor folk get?
I'm shocked - that Warren is just now learning this fact of life.
If you legally sell marijuana with a license from the state,
Obama will raid your ass and threaten you with 10 years in federal prison.
If you launder billions of dollars of blood money for the drug cartels,
Obama makes you give back some of your profits.

Subject: What's to stop a guy from loaning a criminal his gun?
Bart, about the only thing I can think of that will work is, if a your gun is used in a crime,
you're charged with accessory. Someone loans or sells his gun without a background check,
then that gun owner is as guilty as the guy he helped.
