Heads up

Guys, I just received this courtesy of Bruce Eberle of MillionsofAmericans.com:


One of the great lions of the conservative movement, Reed
Irvine, has been struck down by a stroke.  As you may recall,
Reed has for many, many years been the nemesis of the
liberal news media, through his group -- Accuracy in Media. 
Indeed, how much further left would be media be today if it
were not for the tireless efforts of Reed Irvine?

His son, Don, tells me that they have set up a special
e-mail address for those who want to send Reed their wishes
for a speedy recovery.  You may not know Reed, but if you
would like to help this hero of the conservative movement
get back on his feet and into action, then please join me in
sending your greeting.  Here's his email address.

Email Reed

Please keep Reed and his entire family in your prayers at this
difficult time.

Thanks for your support.


Thanks for telling us, Bruce.  Denizens, please add Reed to your prayer lists if you would.

Gibson backs down

Mel Gibson, I'm disappointed in you.

Your film, The Passion of the Christ,  was Biblically correct.  You were standing firm in your determination to publish the movie as was, despite the bleating from people like the Anti-Defamation League, a pride of self-righteous Pharisees if there ever was one.  I was looking up to you as someone who had a spine - who didn't back down in the face of criticism.

And then you caved in to them:


Mel Gibson is cutting a controversial scene from "The Passion of the Christ," the New York Times quoted a "close associate" as saying today.

The offending clip:  The Jewish high priest Caiaphas declares, "His blood be on us and on our children."

"It didn't work in the focus screenings.  Maybe it was thought to be too hurtful, or taken not in the way it was intended.  It has been used terribly over the years," the source is quoted as saying.


Y'know what, Gibson?  It's fuckin' accurate!!!  Caiaphas did  say that!  Your removing the line from the film to pacify Abe Foxman and the pisspots at the ADL isn't going to change that, either!

I was  planning on going to see this movie when it came out, partially to support Gibson.

I'm not going now.  I choose not to give my money to cowards.

Throw this punk for a huge loss

This going through the courts to get what you can't have legally has flat-out got  to stop.

Now we have former Ohio State Buckeye running back Maurice Clarett getting a federal judge to kiss his ass and allowing him to enter the NFL draft.


"While, ordinarily, the best offense is a good defense, none of these defenses hold the line," the judge wrote in a 70-page ruling.


How did someone as stupid as this tyrannical pisspot get on a federal bench?

It's "the best defense  is a good offense,  you dumbass.


She said Clarett could bring the lawsuit because he was fighting a policy that excludes all players in his position from selling their services to the only viable buyer -- the NFL.


Y'know, the Edmonton Eskimos, the Saskatchewan RoughRiders, the British Columbia Lions, the Calgary Stampede, and the rest of the teams in the Canadian Football League  might take exception to that.


"The NFL has not justified Clarett's exclusion by demonstrating that the rule enhances competition.  Indeed, Clarett has alleged the very type of injury -- a complete bar to entry into the market for this services -- that the antitrust laws are designed to prevent,"


Allegations are not proof, idiot.  And the NFL's point is not only compelling, but overwhelming.  There are older backs in the NFL right now, who aren't nearly as talented as Boy Maurice, who can run rings around this kid, simply because they're disciplined enough to practice patience in their craft.  Bill Parcells would have a field day tearing this punk to shreds.  Who could possibly  have been shitheaded enough to not be able to figure this out???


she said.


Oh.  Never mind.  That explains it.  A bimbo on a federal bench who probably doesn't know the first thing about football, but knows everything about "Now Wally, you have to let Beaver play with you and the other boys".  Why am I not surprised?

(Note to the female Denizens and LCs:  No, this is not you.  I trust that you have the good sense to realize that the NFL is in the right here, and not  Boy Maurice.  Besides, bitch at me about that choice of phrase, and you'll put yourself squarely in the camp of Homorrhoid - and you don't want that, now do you?  (grin))

One can only hope that now, Boy Maurice will get a taste of just what football is like:  Hard practices where he has to carry the water for the coach, getting his ass really  chewed when he takes plays off like he did at OSU, and a league where every  team hits him as hard as the Miami Hurricans did when he got the ball, every  time.

Actually, I'm hoping that whatever team drafts him, makes him a fuckin' fourth-stringer.  What's he gonna do then?  Sue the team for the starting back's job?

Shitheaded little punk...

Countdown

T minus 16 days and counting...

And then there were six

Seven Demoscummic candidates
Flirting wth the Dixie Chicks
Natalie clocked Lieberman ("Goodbye, Earl!")
And then there were six

Okay, so it didn't happen exactly that way.

Lieberman's out, though.  In all the hubbub over Janet's boob, this blog neglected (read: didn't have time to post on) the fact that Lieberman was an also-ran in all seven Tuesday primaries, and finally saw the writing on the wall.

The prediction from here:  Kucinich and Dean are the next to go.  Kucinich polled even worse than Lieberman, and Dean's threatening to quit if he doesn't at least win Wisconsin (he won't).

Six bottles of beer on the wall...

Can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen, part I

Meet Leslie Marshall.  Leslie is an actress-cum-talk-show-hostess, a mother of one, and possesses a master's degree.

She's also, IYAM, an idiot.

In the wake of the Janet Jackson boob fiasco, some of you may have seen little Leslie on Hannity & Colmes  Monday night.  She was there to pitch the there-was-absolutely-nothing-wrong-with-it-it-was-just-a-boob bullshit line.  And she did a fairly decent job of shouting down Michelle Malkin, who was on the side of us right-thinkers who see the big picture, and maintain that this was something completely inappropriate for what has become an unofficial national holiday, fit for family consumption - and that something ought to be done to keep this from happening again.

(A clarification:  She didn't out-debate  Michelle - she just shouted her down.  Remember - "When the facts are against you, argue the law.  When the law is against you, argue the facts.  When the facts and  the law are against you, yell like hell.")

Anyway, in the midst of her whining, Hannity took a page from the Donk playbook and mentioned The Children™, whereupon Leslie the Genius™ took great pains to point out that she, too, was a mother, and how dare you question her because of that?

Well, that was too much for me.  I promptly wrote her and told her I thanked God that I wasn't her child, and that I felt sorry for her progeny, if that was what she was teaching the rugrat.

Oh, and did she take great exception to that:


I DIDN'T SUPPORT MS JACKSON, CBS OR MTV


Sure didn't sound like it Monday night.


...I JUST DON'T FEEL BREASTS ARE OFFENSIVE..THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL, GIVEN BY GOD TO FEED A CHILD...


No argument there.  So where was the child on stage at the Super Bowl?  (And no, I'm not referring to Justin TimberFlake, either.  (hat tip, Denizen Denita TwoDragons))

More to the point, do you intend to allow your child to constantly see your breast while growing up?  I mean, using your logic, there's nothing wrong with it, right?  It's just a breast, after all.


AND YOU'RE COMPLETELY TAKING MY WORDS OUT OF CONTEXT...GUESS THAT'S HOW JESUS FEELS, HUH?


Jesus came down on it a lot harder than I did, bimbo.  Else, why are we all wearing clothes?  What was the purpose of the first fig leaf?  Certainly it wasn't for Calvin Klein's or Versace's benefit.


MY SON DISAGREES WITH YOU


As we will see in Part II of this sequence, this is quite possibly the stupidest thing Ms. Marshall said in our entire exchange.  Tends to make me wonder about the value of master's degrees nowadays.


AND I'M NOT A TROLLUP...YOU'RE ENTITLED TO YOUR OPINION, BUT INSULTING ME AS A MOTHER


Well, my opinion of you, Ms. Leslie Marshall, is that you're a trollop whose mothering skills need improvement if your child is going to grow up with any sense of decency.


AND PERSONALLY ATTACKING ME IS WRONG.  PERHAPS YOU SHOULD TALK TO GOD ABOUT "JUDGING OTHERS..." HE WRITES ABOUT THAT IN HIS BOOK


He also writes about not letting others see your nakedness in that Book, too, Ms. Marshall - plus several other things with which I'm willing to wager you disagree.  Do those not count either, Ms. Marshall?


TOMORROW:  Who says conservatives aren't up in arms over this?
