Original article: No Grace

Gracias, no!

Poor viewers. Nancy Grace is like muscle pain and weakness from a statin drug, as soon as you stop taking it the pain goes away soon after. I can watch people vomit and console them without even a hint of self nausea but I can't watch Nancy Grace! I can't watch Anderson Cooper without a bile sequestrant.

Sedgewick's face

Who could hold a candle to that stern Julia Roberts meets irritable bowel syndrome look that sells this show? Maybe Julia is an understudy.

Tasteless joke

Officials removed the Steve Irwin tanning and sunblock products from store shelves today

Apparently the products do not protect you from harmful rays.

Original article: Virtually dead in Iraq

I applaud the protest

An anti-war activist that posts the names of dead soldiers in the chat during America's Army games, I wish I had thought of it myself. I am an on-line gamer and although I have no passion for America's Army (yes I've played it), I do like other first person shooters (HL2 + episode(s), Quake 4, etc). I don't get a great deal of time to play but that's beside the point. What better place to list the names of America's fallen than in the Army's internet recruitment tool? It's difficult for me to imagine anyone joining the Armed forces after playing it, it's the same as any other on-line team game thus the complaints of the day in, day out following of gamers who are apparently annoyed when reality encroaches upon recreational "killing/fragging". There is a war going on and ironically there is the slimmest chance that this war could potentially lead to the drafting of so many enthusiastic virtual killers depending on where the political climate is headed. I like to think that that's nearly impossible.. Any public outcry against the war is warranted, inconvenient or not. This war has been created from lies from the beginning, why shouldn't the truth be thus conjugal?

Original article: Tortured justice

House cleaning

Our federal government is now officially useless, isn't it time for a house cleaning? So much for those lofty ideals; liberty and justice for all. Now All Hail King George!

Russ Feingold

Sure, the "people" of America have no apetite for truth but if there's a snowball's chance in Hell, I'll vote for Russ Feingold. Check the voting record, check the interviews; this country isn't ready for anything as lofty as truth so nobody (I) won't get my hopes up but.. Ask the talibangelicals who they want to run in 2008 and they'll tell you Hillary Clinton! We've already seen the folly of two Bushes, do we really want to follow that up with another Clinton Administration? Oh the humanity!

Doh!

spelling error folks, revoke my card!

Hillary Dillary Dupe

I sent her web site an email today asking her to get her facts straight, that Kerry's words were blatantly taken out of context, that she should get a backbone and stick with her party members or simple STFU. I also stated that we've had two Bush administrations now (with disasterous results) and that we really don't need to have another Clinton administration to boot. Russ Feingold in 2008!

Kerry and Clinton

This is why the Democrats lose time and again. Please, do we need to hire Keanu Reaves to do our ultimate stumping?!!! These two (Clinton and Kerry) should be paid back in full denunciation come 2008, however we have a decent chance to win in 6 days so for Christ's, sake lets return to a 2 corrupt party system in 2006 and simply hang any Democrat that strays out of bounds henceforth from the laws that supposedly govern our lands! On CNN or Faux news if possible!

He is guilty yes..

Of not being honest with himself, that is. All the talk of "darkness welling up" is as usual; atrociously misleading and implying the standard victimization ploy by homosexuality and homosexual urges being "dark" and beyond control. I can't believe his wife’s statement either, sure it got a standing ovation but who is the biggest fool? Herself, her congregation or the Lord itself? Haggard is guilty of sexuality, pray for him if you must but pray for what's really wrong with him. He has never been able to accept himself and he appears to have set up a lifetime’s worth of fortification to deny what is obvious. I never really saw this guy or paid any attention to him before but after seeing some interview clips who the Hell couldn't tell this guy was the biggest closet queen this side of the Mississippi?

Oh - my - GAWD!!!!

Wow

Nobody told me it was National Pig-headed Absurdity Month. I guess I should attend church more often..

I got married in San Fransisco

It felt wonderful, my partner of 12 years and I were simply elated and felt like we were finally "at the table". That was struck down soon after by the State of California. What does anyone expect from the State of Colorado, closeted christians leaders or not. This will be a long rode to equality and equal protection under the law, I'm going to continue to march down it every day of my existence, rain or shine, moral or immoral. And for the Christians; on whose blade shall I protract my essence or my condemnation? My own, thank you very much!

Original article: What now?

Okay, I guess that wasn't PC

My bad..

If you can savor the moment, then do so and if you can't you should keep your thoughts to yourself and tune into Nancy Grace, Tucker Carlson and Ann Coulter or your favorite Reich wing talking head to immediately regain your perspective.

Bbbbb..
