We have become them

CIA: Waterboarding needed, possibly illegal

It might be illegal, but we're gonna do it anyway. Also, we're not going to investigate ourselves because that would be way too inconvenient. We will continue to torture, bomb and maim until people accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior I mean accept democracy, human rights and transparency as the foundation of good governance.

Sorry Mitt, the terrists have already won.

Smiff rips Schilling on his blog (cont'd)

Your comment is awaiting moderation.

Just wondering if Curt and the other McCain supporters (like ajd24) here will be volunteering for the military to fight the other wars McCain is promising, along with a 100 year commitment to staying in Iraq. Bush has decimated our military (where will McCain be getting all of the troops he will need for Iran and so forth?), so can we count on you to join up?

And Obama has said he will be committed to finding bin Laden (remember him?), you know, the head terrorist guy…

LOLObama

Romney: Quitter

The one ad he kept running out here was about how different he is from Hillary Clinton (maybe that's why she did so well here?). Willard seemed to be running his campaign in reverse - it was if he had already won the Republican nomination and was running against Hillary, who had won the Democratic nomination. I know that for many conservatives, just saying "Hillary Clinton" causes them to grow horns and a third eyeball, but MITT YOU WEREN'T RUNNING AGAINST HER. How about running some ads about McCain being a flip-flopper instead of a "straight talker". Or that fact that he said he doesn't know anything about the economy. Or the fact that he cozies upto and makes deals with pinko commies like Feingold and Ed Kennedy. Nope, he stuck with how "Hillary-care" was going to send everyone to the grave. What a maroon. And this guy made millions as a bidnessman? It must not be very hard then.

Oh, and this is priceless...

Romney at today's CPAC Wingnut Conference: ”If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror.”

Shocking! (cont)

Literally...

Shocking!

LoC influences the Beeb?

After the Fungster's complaint, they changed the story. It now reads:

He could be living up to his name, Simba, which means lion in Swahili - spoken across East Africa - and means strength in Shona, one of Zimbabwe's main indigenous languages.

Course, this does not satisfy the Fungster. He's still going with Swahili shouldn't have been mentioned, and at the very least least the Shona translation should have been first. So one must keep fighting...

Whitey keeping darky down (cont)

Our Govt has been saying, for years now, that drugs are bad. Drugs kill. Stay away from drugs. Except, of course, the drugs we approve of...

Heath Ledger autopsy points to accidental pill overdose
Rapper died of cough syrup overdose

And before that, it was America's favorite bimbo, before that it was her son, and the list goes on and on. So, if you take whitey's drugs, it's "accidental", and Big Pharma is let off the hook. If it's darky's drugs, they bomb the $#!+ out of your farm, burning everything in sight. They arrest your @$$ and throw away the key, so they have to build bigger and bigger prisons. All to protect whitey. Damn the consequences. And the darkies.

Oh, who's next, you ask?

Britney Spears' mom claims sidekick drugged her

If I were a betting man..

Skilling: Up to 14 inch accumulations a good bet

...I wouldn't trust dis guy.

I would say it might be Kirby Pucket instead, but he's dead.

shocking that this happened in Texas

SAN ANTONIO -- All the talk about Super Tuesday apparently caused confusion for many voters in Bexar County.

More than 1,000 calls poured into the Bexar County Elections Department on Monday from voters wanting to know where they could vote in Tuesday's primary.

Problem is -- Texas isn't holding a primary on Tuesday, like more than 20 states are.

Super Duper Tuesday

News item: Wall Street's worst day in 3 months
News item: Recession is here - economists
WEATHER ALERT: Major snowstorm here; up to 14 inches forecast
News item: Checking a 2nd bag on United? Be ready to pay

Oh yeah. This day rocks. To be concluded by the news that it will be McCain vs Hilldog in November. Extending our long national nightmare by four more years.

maybe if we hadn't lost interest right when we had da tarrists surrounded and decided to go bomb da s#i+ outta somebody else... oh never mind

News item: The number of civilians inadvertently killed by U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan doubled in 2007 from the previous year as coalition forces dropped about a million pounds of bombs on the country, military analysts said.

Does K-Mad have his COL Podzzzie t-shirt yet?

Rockies invited OF Scott Podsednik, INF Christian Colonel, 2B Marcus Giles, INF Matt Kata, SS Chris Nelson, OF Sean Barker, OF Dexter Fowler, OF Joe Gaetti, C Mike Rose, C Michael McKenry and C Neil Wilson to spring training. There are still a lot of GMs out there that love speed, but Podsednik couldn't do any better than a minor league deal to perhaps act as a fifth outfielder. The Rockies would probably be better off carrying Ryan Spilborghzz and Cory Sullivan.
