"The novelty of legal pot is bringing people from everywhere. I have people driving in from Texas, Arizona, Utah... to be a part of history. Give it six months, and when other states see that the sky didn't fall and the revenue we are producing, I believe legal pot will spread like gay marriage. You can't stop the will of the people." -- Adam Raleigh of cannabis supplier Telluride Bud Co. Link One thing they need to figure out - where do tourist enjoy their new freedom? You can't smoke it in public and every hotel chain I called said, "Hell no" when I asked if they allowed pot in their smoking rooms.

In asking the question, Julie Pace of The Whore AP captured several things at once: the reality of a genuinely disappointing year for Obama; a mood of skepticism in the media about him; the inevitability of Beltway scorekeeping; and the personalization of nearly everything in politics. I’d suggest that 2013 was not his worst year. That distinction should be reserved for 2011, when the president emerged from the summer looking weak after protracted negotiations with House Republicans over a debt-ceiling increase. Obama was operating from a position of fear. In this fall’s budget fight, Obama did not blink and Democrats did not break ranks when Boehner bowed to Tea Party pressure to shut down the government. The public was furious. Republicans plummeted in the polls and eventually gave in. I was very suprised when the Dems stood with their president. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Pope understands Bible message - Atheist Declares I have to say that I like this new Pope. As an Atheists I did read the Bible and although I don't believe I do understand what it says. That's why I'm somewhat confused when I hear Christians behaving badly and coming across all angry I'm wondering - did they read the same Bible I read? But this Pope Francis - it seams that he reads the Bible the same way I do. He talks about helping poor people, being humble, and that greed is wrong. And I'm thinking - yep - that's the way I read it. I personally am not buying the Bible story as being literally true, but this Pope at least gets the story right. I think that all Christians who say they want to follow the teachings of Jesus should listen to this guy because the world would be a better place if Christians started acting a little more Christian. So a +1 for this Pope! I'm clicking on Like! Marc Perkel Send e-mail to Bar Dozens will see it!

Advertise on bartcop.com A&E Caves, Racist Back on TV They'd sell their mother to make a dollar "Screw religion - the almighty dollar is God!" Link GLAAD responded to A&E’s decision to lift gay-bashing racist Phil Robertson’s suspension by calling for a meeting between Robertson, African-Americans and gays. “Phil Robertson should look African American and gay people in the eyes and hear about the hurtful impact of praising Jim Crow laws and comparing gay people to terrorists,” the group said. “...A+E has chosen profits over African American and gay people – especially its employees and viewers,” the group added. On Friday, the cowards at A&E announced that they would reinstate Robertson without the racist bastard missing a single episode. We all knew they were going to cave because there was money to be made. Why bother to suspend the guy if he wasn't going to miss any episodes? It's like suspending a gay-hating racist baseball player for the month of January. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: railroaded Don Siegelman You ask why Dems haven't done anything about railroaded Don Siegelman. My question is why hasn't Obama? Petition: http://donsiegelman.org/ He's the one with the power--why isn't he using it? Maybe he's afraid Rush the Pigboy or Glenn Beck will criticize him. What do you think? Neil in MA On this subject, Obama seems to be a coward. He should mention Siegelman every time he speaks. PS. That's the most rational e-mail you've sent me in years. Send e-mail to Bar Shop Online

Military Rapes are up 50% Rape is a perk for our soldiers Link The number of reported sexual assaults across the military shot up by more than 50 percent this year, an increase that defense officials say may suggest that victims are becoming more willing to come forward after a tumultuous year of scandals that shined a spotlight on the crimes and put pressure on the military to take aggressive action. A string of high-profile assaults and arrests triggered outrage in Congress and set off months of debate over how to change the military justice system, while military leaders launched a series of new programs intended to beef up accountability and encourage victims to come forward. According to early data obtained by The Whore AP, there were more than 5,000 reports of sexual assault filed during the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, compared to the 3,374 in 2012. Of those 2013 reports, about 10 percent involved incidents that occurred before the victim got into the military, up from just 4 percent only a year ago. That increase, officials said, suggests that confidence in the system is growing and that victims are more willing to come forward. It might be that more rapes are being reported but it also might be more rapes. As long as our military has that boys-will-be-boys attitude, rapes will continue. I think they should add that to their recruiting brochures: "Sign up and you get to rape all you want and we'll look the other way." Send e-mail to Bart Red Lobster Restaurants to Close Bush's recession killed them dead Link R.I.P. Red Lobster. The seafood restaurant chain is reportedly closing up shop. Its parent company Darden Restaurants announced Dec. 19 that Red Lobster locations will be shutting down for "a tax-free spin-off" or possibly be sell it off completely. One thing is for sure, though: no more Red Lobster. Though it's one of the biggest casual dining restaurant with a market value of $6.7 billion, its core chains -- Red Lobster being its first -- have had stagnant growth. Red Lobster has 705 restaurants in the U.S. and Canada, and had annual sales of about $2.6 billion in the company's 2013 fiscal year. Send e-mail to Bart But is he ignorant or religious? Since the new Pope says, "Who am I to judge?" why do these yahoos think THEY should judge? Subject: Story about your state Hey Bart - I don't know if you get the Truth-Out newsletter, but they've always got several excellent progressive articles in every newsletter, which is published more than once/day (!). This morning had a short article about OK and its use of the death penalty: http://truth-out.org/speakout/item/20902-death-penalty-isnt-necessary-for-justice I'd say "Enjoy", but you won't. Howard Excerpt: But now the question: if the England/Watts life without possible parole on Monday is justice, then why, less than 24 hours later did we, the people of Oklahoma, gleefully kill Johnny Dale Black, at the state prison in McAlester? Unfortunately the answer is perhaps more political than judicial. Strapping unarmed, incarcerated people to a table so the assembled can watch them die is always a big draw for conservative votes. Perhaps this is why Gov. Mary Fallin and Attorney General Scott Pruitt are so keen on having people executed. Killing prisoners is a way, just like gangs on the street, of making your bones. Good point - the GOP is like the Crips and the Bloods. You have to kill some people so show everyone how cool you are. Send e-mail to Bart Man Arrested to Test Pot Laws He wants change and he wants it now Link As the war on cannabis continues in most U.S. states, one brave North Carolinian who openly grows his own -- and broadcasts this fact publicly -- has intentionally taken the fall in a bold move that could be the spark that eventually ends cannabis prohibition in the so-called "Bible Belt," an area of the country that has seen the least proactive change with regard to cannabis reform. Robert Dorr was recently arrested for growing his own. Rather than try to hide the fact that he grows cannabis, Dorr believes that the only way to instigate real change is to be open about it in order to essentially shatter the status quo. Prior to his arrest, Dorr actually called up the local district attorney and sheriff's office to notify them of his growing activities, even leaving his address so they would know where to find him. And find him they did. Dorr was arrested and shipped off to a local prison, even though his "crime" was victimless. But Dorr's arrest has not been in vain, as his story is now gaining national attention, illustrating the foolishness of the ongoing anti-cannabis crusade in many parts of the country. A shot of Chinaco for a guy willing to fight for change. They should have his PayPal address listed so we could all send him $5. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Snowden Bart, if Snowden had not given proof to the press that the NSA is spying on our phone calls, internet usage, searches, e-mails and cell phones, HOW would we Americans know all this? We would not know, and we'd be as happy as we were the day before he got famous. Do you really think Snowden gave up a high-paying job, girlfriend and living in Hawaii for living in exile and fame? HWN, who sent a donation HWN, thanks for the donation. Snowden DID give up a high-paying job, girlfriend and living in Hawaii for living in exile and fame. Yes, I think he was crazy to betray his country that way. If you pulled people off the street and asked them, "Name an American traitor," their reply would be Snowden, Benedict Arnold, maybe John Wilkes Booth and maybe the Rosenburgs. Yet he insists that he "won." Good for him. Apparently he can never, ever come home, at least not without doing some prison time. Anything else would send a signal that you can steal from America and betray America and run to China with 1.5M national security secrets and that's OK, all's forgiven. Send e-mail to Bart Marty's

Like: Miley's twerking ass, Just like Janet Jackson's tit. Fleshy distractions. See? Like a gentle breeze across a rice paddy. Next week, the Rude Pundit will post his own, and, as always, he invites rude readers to submit their own. The only rule is that it's gotta be a real haiku. Any subject is game.

Bart CNN: This Just In... In a potential preview of the next presidential election, a new national poll suggests that Hillary Clinton and Chris Christie would be running neck and neck if the 2016 contest were held today. But a CNN/ORC International survey released today also indicates Clinton leading eight other possible Republican White House hopefuls in hypothetical matchups. Lying sons of bitches... Remember 2012? They told us ON ELECTION DAY that Thurston was winning. The liars want you to think the 2016 election will be a nail-biter, but that's just a lie.

Bart Cowboys Lose Without Romo But the new guy played just like Tony Link For the third year in a row, the Dallas Cowboys entered their final game of the season with the NFC East title on the line. In the last two seasons, they lost to the Giants and Redskins, and this year it was the Philadelphia Eagles who beat the Cowboys to end their season, 24-22. Seems like the Cowboys always play the same way. In the closing minutes, they were down two points - all they needed was a field goal but the replacement quarterback, Kyle Orton, threw an interception, just like Romo would. Also reading from the same script, the announcers were goin on and on and on and on about how great the Cowboys were and how great the Romo-replacement was - and they lost again. Now I have to wait until August before I get to see the Cowboys lose again. Send e-mail to Bart This is Sunny and Barkley - they live in Idaho with Mike.
