"Obama is blazing a trail of destruction throughout this country, and now it has spread and gone viral to Europe." Rush, the child-molester
Rush is right.
Few people know that Greece put Obama in charge of Greek over-spending when he moved into the White House.

With the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico still unfolding, concerns over threats to wildlife have brought animals into the news quite a bit lately. From the oil spill, to preservation efforts, to zoo developments, pampered pets, harsh environments, invasive fish, a surfing alpaca and more, collected here are a handful of recent photographs of animals and our interactions with them, as companions, caretakers, observers, and stewards.
"The church has a profound need to relearn penance, to accept purification, to learn on the one hand forgiveness but also the necessity of justice. And forgiveness does not substitute justice ... We have to relearn these essentials: conversion, prayer, penance."Benny the Rat, trying to get away with something, Link
No Benny, you and your henchmen need to learn how to use the phone.
When a priest gets caught raping a child, you need to call the police and say,
"Yep, we have another one - come get the son of a bitch."
That bullshit about "relearning penance" is nothing but weasel words
that a criminal uses when he intends to continue his raping of kids.
God is watching - and each time you throw a rape complaint in the trash
God puts another mortal sin mark on your blackened soul, preparing your eternity in Hell.
(Of course that's all crappola, but IF he believes it...)

"We've never seen anybody crash and burn quite as spectacularly as Tiger has. This isn't just one aspect of his life that fell apart. It's everything - physical, mental, emotional - all going kaflooey together. All it lacks is a felony charge to qualify as a total disaster." - Mike Celizic, Link
But Eldrick did commit a felony.
After he drove drunk and wrecked his SUV, he went to sleep in the damn street.
The cops gave him a free ride because the super-rich don't have to play by our rules.

$12 million?!?! RU freakin' serious?
That's the number that's floating around the publishing world today. Willfully oblivious to P.T. Barnum's warnings, HarperCollins is allegedly throwing MORE money at the Remora of the Right. Looks like Grifterella wised up and is going to pocket the ghostwriter's fee this time:
The book, described as a "celebration of American virtues and strengths," will feature selections of readings that have inspired Palin.
They will include "the nation's founding documents to great speeches, sermons, letters, literature and poetry, biography, and even some of her favorite songs and movies."
TWELVE million for a f**king Palin version of Bartlett's Book of Quotations?!!
Idiots. They should have gone with this title and cover:

Ted Haggard Incorporates New Church
The world's second-most famous rentboy patron (for the moment) has incorporated a new church in his hometown of Denver. Morgan Stanley is now being investigated for "criminal" behaviour ...In my book, if corporations are people, then corporations (meaning their boards of directors) can go to jail too, just like regular folks.
An aside: There are a few oil industry executives I can think of who should be wearing orange jumpsuits too. The Senate Sergeant at Arms should've taken them into custody as they tried to leave the hearing room the other day. If the NYPD arrested 3 guys and they came out with a bullshit story and finger-pointing that these execs did, all of 'em would be in a cell on Rikers lickety split.
The Department of Homeland Security is slashing funding for New York City area mass transit security and port security by 25 percent.I'm not one of those hide-under-the-bed folks but Jesus, do we have to take another hit before the White House gets its priorities straight? New York is the target, the face of America, and it makes no sense to outfit small town police and fire departments like military units while cutting funding to the place where actual attacks have taken place. Good luck with your photo ops today, Mr. Obama.
Word of the decision sparked outrage among New York lawmakers.
Such a serious nation:
Too early to start drinking.

But wingnuts don't care because they'll all be raptured home to Jesus by then.

Dead dolphins wash up on shore
As ThinkProgress has documented, the BP oil spill off of Louisiana's coast threatens more than 400 species, with the potential "devastation beyond human comprehension." Already, brown pelicans, sea turtles, and various types of fish have turned up dead. Now, the National Marine Fisheries Service is reporting that six dolphin carcasses have also been found in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama since May 2. The AP reports that officials are reporting the deaths as "oil spill-related even though other factors may be to blame." Watch a video taken by NRDC staff of dolphins swimming in water with oil dispersants: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRlK3iUyLx8&feature=player_embedded

Ken Starr on right wing attacks on Kagan:
Well it may be good politics but I don't think it's good for the Court. We have been through a generation of very divisive politics which I think is not serving the Court well and therefore I don't think it serves the country well.
It didn't serve the country well when you investigated Clenis, either, douchebag.
