You've Got To Love The Weekly World News!


This is a hoot!


PARALLEL UNIVERSE DISCOVERED. . . Where Bill Clinton Is A Celibate Priest!...George Bush was a college professor...Britney Spears was a singer!


I found this at Fark.com, where the article submitter added Osama as a Christian fundamentalist and Sean Hannity as a Democrat!

Feel free to add your own version of an alternate universe.

Mine would have Bill frist as a doctor and Ken Mehlman as a gay man...oh, wait.

My New Hero!


Lawmaker's proposal: Bar Republicans from adopting

Hagan said his legislation was written in response to a bill introduced in the Ohio House this month by state Rep. Ron Hood, R-Ashville, that is aimed at prohibiting gay adoption.


To further lampoon Hood's bill, Hagan wrote in his mock proposal that "credible research" shows that adopted children raised in Republican households are more at risk for developing "emotional problems, social stigmas, inflated egos, and alarming lack of tolerance for others they deem different than themselves and an air of overconfidence to mask their insecurities."

However, Hagan admitted that he has no scientific evidence to support the above claims.

It's About Time!!

"A Rasmussen Reports survey found that... From a political perspective, President Bush's national security credentials have clearly been tarnished due to the outcry over this issue. For the first time ever, Americans have a slight preference for Democrats in Congress over the President on national security issues. Forty-three percent (43%) say they trust the Democrats more on this issue today while 41% prefer the President"
The American People are finally waking up! This is the first poll to show Democrats leading on this issue and rightly so!

Un-fucking-belivable!!

Found at Media Matters...no comment necessary.

The American Taliban




So, This is what a Christian Madras looks Like.

A class at Bell Shoals Baptist Church embraces an alternate history that advocates the United States as a nation by Christians for Christians.

This is David Barton, vice chairman of the Texas Republican Party, champion of a controversial alternate history...

...Studies show, he says, that 97 percent of Americans believe in God. Only 3 percent are atheists.

"We've been robbed," Barton says. "Robbed by the 3 percent. The 3 percent has taken away our heritage. We've got to get involved and take it back."


Whaa, Whaa, What a victim! Talk about revisionism...He needs to read this!

Here's the best part:

This Is The Great "Bush Economy"?

Family incomes dropped 2.3% 2001-2004, Fed says

Wal-Mart Chief: "Love it or Leave it!"

It seems Wal-Mart chief executive, H. Lee Scott Jr. gets a little testy when workers question the company's greed.

In a confidential, internal Web site for Wal-Mart's managers, the company's chief executive, H. Lee Scott Jr., seemed to have a rare, unscripted moment when one manager asked him why "the largest company on the planet cannot offer some type of medical retirement benefits?"

Scott first argues that the cost of such benefits would leave Wal-Mart at a competitive disadvantage but then, clearly annoyed, he suggests that the store manager is disloyal and should consider quitting.


I love it when disgruntled "ex-managers" release confidential stuff to the public!

But its tone is at times biting. In his response to the store manager who asked about retiree health benefits, Scott wrote: "Quite honestly, this environment isn't for everyone. There are people who would say, 'I'm sorry, but you should take the risk and take billions of dollars out of earnings and put this in retiree health benefits and let's see what happens to the company.' If you feel that way, then you as a manager should look for a company where you can do those kinds of things."

I guess he's not working the front door as a greeter anytime soon!

What Kind Of Nation Are We Becoming?

When this kind of thing happens in our nation, something is incredibly wrong!

The scene is the Little Falls branch of the Montgomery County Public Library in Bethesda, Md. Business is going on as usual when two men in uniform stride into the main reading room and call for attention. Then they make an announcement: It is forbidden to use the library's computers to view Internet pornography...

It turns out they are employees of the county's department of Homeland Security and were operating way outside their authority.

I didn't know that Ed Meese Was Back!

Republicans Were Against Port Security Before They Were For It!

With the Republicans suddenly acting tough on port security, the Dems need to hit hard on this.

Republicans Opposing Dubai Deal Have Long Opposed Efforts To Secure America's Ports

Who is this Bush Blunder going to help?

"congressionally approved vetting process"?



White House counselor Dan Bartlett as quoted by AP

White House counselor Dan Bartlett said Wednesday the UAE company, Dubai Ports, "is a reputable firm that went through a congressionally approved vetting process." He said the U.S. has "the necessary safeguards to make sure that the security of our country is in place" and that rejecting the deal would send "a dangerous signal to people overseas that America plays favorites."

Tell that to congress!

Go "NUKULAR"...Not!

For anyone spouting the "line" that Nuclear energy is a "safe" alternative to oil and coal:

At Exelon’s Braidwood Generating Station in Will County, Ill., water containing tritium was found to have spilled into the ground on four occasions in an eight-year span from 1996 to 2003. The state’s attorney’s office is investigating why those spills were not disclosed until just weeks ago.

Hatch Lying Through His Teeth!



Do They purposely perpetuate ignorance among the electorate?

"And, more importantly, we've stopped a mass murderer in Saddam Hussein. Nobody denies that he was supporting al-Qaida."

He actually said that! What an IDIOT!

Liberal Churches Speaking Out!!

It's nice to be reminded that not all religious folks are fundamentalists freaks!

A coalition of American churches sharply denounced the U.S.-led war in Iraq on Saturday, accusing Washington of "raining down terror" and apologizing to other nations for "the violence, degradation and poverty our nation has sown."

Amen, brother!

Defending The Indefensible!



Does anyone believe anything these incompetent idiots say anymore?

Chertoff defends Arab firm control of U.S. ports

Bait and switch

Bush has gone green...yeah, right!

Our energy "innovative" President will be touting "renewables" at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado. The problem..."Thirty-two jobs at the labs were eliminated by budget cuts earlier this month"... The soloution...RESTORE THE FUNDING AND THE JOBS TWO DAYS BEFORE THE PRESIDENT'S VISIT!

Renee Azerbegi, the past president and a current board member of the Colorado Renewable Energy Society, questioned the timing of of the announcement that jobs had been restored just before the president's visit.

This administration's political maneuverings have become so transparant!

I give it 2 months before we hear that the funding was actually not restored. He's done that little trick before.
