LGF: Wikipedia Removes USSR Anthem Info from 'Decemberists' Page
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Wed 21 May 2008 08:50 PM EDT
You have got to be kidding. Earlier today I linked to the Wikipedia page about the band The Decemberists, to point out that in addition to warming up for Barack Obama in Oregon, the band is known for using the National Anthem of the Soviet Union as an introduction to their concerts. That section of the Wikipedia page has now gone down the memory hole. More>>>
Misunderstanding marriage in California

CALIFORNIA'S voters, unlike their counterparts in Massachusetts, will have the last word on what marriage means in their state. When the highest court in Massachusetts conjured up a constitutional right to same-sex marriage, 170,000 Bay State voters petitioned for an amendment to the state constitution that would restore the age-old definition. Their effort died on the vine (Snip)Some 1.1 million signatures have already been submitted on behalf of a constitutional amendment making clear that "only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California."

If We Could Talk to the Animals

You always know you've struck gold when liberals react with hysteria and rage to something you've said. So I knew President Bush's speech at the Knesset last week was a barn burner before even I read it. Liberals haven't been this worked up since Rev. Jerry Falwell criticized a cartoon sponge...We have an obligation to call this what it is -- the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history." The way liberals squealed, you'd think someone had mentioned Obama's ears. More>>>

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) may have inadvertently violated federal campaign finance laws by appearing with Newt Gingrich in a television commercial that ran in her district less than a month before a contested primary, according to campaign finance experts. (Snip) The ad was paid for by former Vice President Al Gore's non-profit group, the Alliance for Climate Protection. Under the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 - popularly known as ''McCain-Feingold'' and which passed with Pelosi's support... More>>>

To Hate or Not to Hate?
by

on Wed 21 May 2008 03:23 PM EDT
With the Sean Bell and Rodney King scandals elevating public concern about racially-motivated violence, support for federal hate-crimes legislation has intensified. Some scholars worry that such proposals use dangerously vague language. “One thing you have to keep in mind with the hate-crimes statute is that it is drafted extremely broadly. You hear it referred to as a ‘hate crime’ statute—it is therefore natural to believe it must require hatred. It does not,” argued Professor Gail Heriot. She believes that H.R. 1592 masks lawmakers’ long-standing desire to radically expand hate crimes to include rape and other violent acts. More>>>

A time of upheaval is coming, they agreed. Election Day - Nov. 4 - will put Saturn in opposition to Uranus... More>>>

“What do you want? Please, Sweetie, would you just tell me what you want?” “Don’t Sweetie me, Twiggy. You know what I want.” “Besides that, Hillary. Seriously, you don’t want your delusion to put John McCain in the White House. Or maybe you do. You have no shot. I’m 60 delegates away from nomination nirvana. You should stop stalking me. More>>>
How would Ted Kennedy fair under Socialized Medicine?

The following is an excerpt from physician Dr. David Gratzer printed months ago: "I was once a believer in socialized medicine. As a Canadian, I had soaked up the belief that government-run health care was truly compassionate. What I knew about American health care was unappealing: high expenses and lots of uninsured people."

Israeli authorities say no to "Sex" in cities

on Wed 21 May 2008 08:36 AM EDT
"Forum Films, the Israeli distributor of the soon-to-be-released "Sex and the City" movie, said advertising posters and billboards won't be hung in Jerusalem and Petah Tikva because residents there don't want the word "sex" on display, said company spokesman Arye Barak. Both cities have large religious populations. The Israeli company that is handling outdoor advertising for the movie asked to have the word "sex" removed from the posters because it would bother people in those cities, Barak said." More>>>

U.S. military personnel at Guantanamo Bay allegedly softened up detainees at the request of Chinese intelligence officials who had come to the island facility to interrogate the men -- or they allowed the Chinese to dole out the treatment themselves, according to claims in a new government report.

Senate Amnesty Fight: Round Four
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Wed 21 May 2008 04:51 AM EDT
For the third May in a row, the U.S. Senate is trying to force another amnesty on the country. Now, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) has attached the perennial AgJOBS amnesty to the must-pass Iraq War appropriations bill. This was part of the “comprehensive” amnesty bill. She is carrying water for those in the agriculture sector who wantonly hire illegal aliens. AgJOBS’s latest iteration would give out five-year “emergency agricultural worker status” visas. That means legalizing some 1.35 million illegal farm hands, plus their spouses and children (adding another 3 million or so). The Feinstein amendment stacks the process with so much laxity, the program will be overrun with fraud and abuse. So instead of 4-6 million securing amnesty, count on many more than that getting legalization. More>>>
Senate loads war funding bill with domestic programs
by

on Wed 21 May 2008 04:46 AM EDT
Senators are acting as if the war funding bill coming to the floor Tuesday is the last train leaving the station, and, as a result, have added billions of dollars for pet programs and hitched on several policy "riders" as well. The Senate war funding bill combines $194.1 billion in spending over 2008-2009 for war funding, foreign aid, military base construction, heating subsidies and a variety of smaller items. Then there's $14.5 billion to give 13 weeks of unemployment checks to people whose benefits have run out and $51.6 billion over 10 years to improve GI Bill benefits. More>>>

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That's not leadership. That's not going to happen." Is this guy running for President of the United States Or Dictator? More>>>

Well, fast on the heels of Obama telling us we can't use the anti-American statements of his wife as a campaign issue we get the kiddies over at the DailyKos doing their best to "help" Barack Obama by making an image of Michelle Obama hanging from a tree with robed KKK figures torturing her with a branding iron and claiming that this is the "NEW IMPROVED" GOP strategy. ***WARNING: Disturbing image*** More>>>
