Just to remind people we don't have the only idiot politicians out there,
let's start this in France:
Glamorous French politician Rachida Dati has been forced to issue a public apology after confusing oral sex with inflation.
WTF?
Asked about overseas investment funds profiteering during a period of economic uncertainty, she said: ‘I see some of them looking for returns of 20 or 25 per cent, at a time when fellatio is almost non-existent.’
In French, fellatio – a sex act performed on a man – is ‘fellation’, which sounds a bit like inflation, which is the same word in French and English.
Well, ok then...
The Holder DOJ racism has finally broken out into the 'major media'(which has either ignored or talked it down since if first came out); nice to know the professional journalists are finally getting around to actually reporting on it.
This must have pissed Chavez off no end:
Benefiting from discontent at a deep recession, soaring violent crime and electricity shortages in South America’s top oil exporter, Democratic Unity took 62 seats, with almost all the votes counted. A Reuters source at the electoral council backed Ramon Guillermo Aveledo a principal opposition leader claim that his Democratic Unity alliance won 52 percent of the popular vote.
Chavez won a majority in parliament but opponents surpassed expectations to take over a third of seats, limiting his power and boosting their bid to stop his re-election in 2012, said independent analysts.
I hope they're ready: Chavez and his goons are really going to go after them. After he signed this, they won't be legally able to get arms for self-defense.
Kevin has a piece on the Church of the Mainstream Media and one of their current projects:
It's their job to sit below the Cardinals of the Church of State and above us proles. They are the interpreters of the Text, the tellers of Truth, and it's their job to make sure we don't hear about anything that would interfere with the way the Church says the system should be running (as long as it's their people in the red vestments)
and one example:
Stephen Colbert, a TV comedian, is called before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Refugees, and Border Security to "testify" in character. To perform, in other words, a comedy routine.
Google News records 1147 items on this bit of "news."
Christopher Coates, Voting Section Chief of the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division disobeys repeated orders from his superiors to respond to a subpoena to appear before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights and testify about the dismissal of a voter-intimidation case by his department, invokes - and I quote - "the protections of all applicable whistleblower statutes" and proceeds to tell the Commission that the Department of Justice under Barack Obama's appointees isn't interested in enforcing equal protection under the law. In fact, the Department of Justice is quite adamantly opposed to the idea.
Google News records 57 items on this story, none from a major news outlet with the exception of the Washington Post.
We peasants don't need to know this, apparently. The Church has decided. The clergy has responded.
With all their black little hearts.
Ah, some of those tolerant members of the Religion of Submission:
The persecution of Christians in Pakistan is becoming very brutal and very deadly. A Christian man in Pakistan’s Punjab province is literally fighting for his life after Muslim leaders, backed by police, burned him alive for refusing to convert to Islam while his wife was raped by police officers. [more, caution: grizzly pictures]
Now THIS is a comment to spread around, as it were:
Anything wrong with having a few Repubs willing to retch across the aisle
How stupid is Richard the Turd Daley? This stupid.
Among the reasons guns should be banned:
I shall now leave you to your own devices(which in Dick's case could get messy), as I need a board and some bread. Not for the same purposes.

Among the reasons guns should be banned:
- Banning guns works, which is why New York, DC, & Chicago cops need guns.
- Washington DC’s low murder rate of 69 per 100,000 is due to strict gun control, and Indianapolis’ high murder rate of 9 per 100,000 is due to the lack of gun control.
- Statistics showing high murder rates justify gun control but statistics showing increasing murder rates after gun control are “just statistics.”
- The Brady Bill and the Assault Weapons Ban, both of which went into effect in 1994 are responsible for the decrease in violent crime rates, which have been declining since 1991.
- We must get rid of guns because a deranged lunatic may go on a shooting spree at any time and anyone who would own a gun out of fear of such a lunatic is paranoid.
- The more helpless you are the safer you are from criminals.
- An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you.
- A woman raped and strangled is morally superior to a woman with a smoking gun and a dead rapist at her feet.

I'm tempted to say that a lot of people in Congress need to be reminded
that if they use a lame duck session to shove a bunch of progressive crap on us, they fact that they're leaving Congress doesn't mean we can't punish them for it; we just can't do it with votes.
I wonder how some of these clowns would react to signs in businesses saying "Rep. Kickback, if you do this, you will never again be welcome in this place", for instance? Maybe that fine old custom of shunning? All kinds of possibilities come to mind.

More ref the Stuxnet worm
from the guy at Classical Values, including
Well isn't that interesting?
Yes, it is.
Iran has suffered a series of technical setbacks to its nuclear programme in the past 12 months, triggering suggestions that western intelligence agencies are sabotaging its likely ambition to build an atomic weapon.As Iran continues to defy international sanctions, western security analysts say the country is making progress towards the ability to test a nuclear bomb in the next few years.
But a series of recent reverses, notably affecting Iran's ability to enrich uranium, is prompting debate over whether the programme is being undermined by sabotage, sanctions, or the incompetence of the regime's scientists.
In the past year, a dramatic reduction has taken place in the number of centrifuges enriching uranium at the regime's nuclear plant in Natanz.
In May 2009, the International Atomic Energy Agency said there were 4,920 operational centrifuges. Twelve months later the IAEA stated that Iran was running only 3,936, a reduction of 20 per cent.
Iran also appears to be having difficulties on other fronts. Ivan Oelrich, of the Federation of American Scientists, said the centrifuges were only working at 20 per cent efficiency. The latest IAEA report says that 4,592 centrifuges are installed at Natanz - but are sitting idle and doing nothing at all.
Well isn't that interesting?
Yes, it is.
This is just bleeping wonderful,
isn't it?
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's six nights in New York featured a secret sit-down with militant minister Louis Farrakhan, heckling in a hotel bar, and a fear of being rubbed out that bordered on paranoia.
The president shared a hush-hush meal with Farrakhan and members of the New Black Panther Party Tuesday at the Warwick Hotel on West 54th Street.

Well, isn't this interesting?
At its June meeting in Sitges, Spain (unreported and held in camera, as is Bilderberg’s way), some of the world’s most powerful CEOs rubbed shoulders with notable academics and leading politicians. They included: the chairman of Fiat, the Irish Attorney General Paul Gallagher, the US special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan Richard Holbrooke, Henry Kissinger, Bill Gates, Dick Perle, the Queen of the Netherlands, the editor of the Economist…. Definitely not Z-list, in other words.
Which is what makes one particular item on the group’s discussion agenda so tremendously significant. See if you can spot the one I mean:
Well, isn't THAT interesting?
The next few years are going to be very interesting. Watch the global power elite squirming to reposition itself as it slowly distances itself from Anthropogenic Global Warming (”Who? Us? No. We never thought of it as more than a quaint theory…”), and tries to find new ways of justifying green taxation and control. (Ocean acidification; biodiversity; et al). You’ll notice sly shifts in policy spin. In Britain, for example, Chris “Chicken Little” Huhne’s suicidal “dash for wind” will be re-invented as a vital step towards “energy security.” There will be less talk of “combatting climate change” and more talk of “mitigation”. You’ll hear enviro-Nazis like Obama’s Science Czar John Holdren avoid reference to “global warming” like the plague, preferring the more reliably vague phrase “global climate disruption.”
And you know what the worst thing is? If we allow them to, they’re going to get away with it.
Our duty as free citizens over the next few years is to make sure that they don’t.

Murphy's Laws for Motorcycling
A motorcycle cannot fall over without an audience
The odd of it falling over are directly proportional to the sizes of the audience and the owner's ego(newness and expense of bike may also factor in)
Motorcycles are to yellow bugs as aircraft carriers were to kamikaze pilots
You will not need to hit the bathroom until after you put on the rainsuit
The fact that your keys are in your pants pocket will only become apparent after you've put your gloves on
Quick fixes are so named for how long they stay fixed
The only part you really need will be the only one on permanent backorder
Nothing is harder to start than a used motorcycle being shown to a prospective buyer
You will never have a flat tire on the road unless you leave the flat kit at home
Universal-fit accessories are so named because they actually fit no bike in the known universe

Well, I think it's good news, though I'm sure
the mullahs are rather monkey-throwing-poo-level bothered.
If they're admitting that, no telling how bad the damage actually is. Little further along it's suggested getting the thing into their systems was an inside job; I have to wonder. If the Israelis built it for the purpose, well, we're talking the people who managed to get a top terrorists' backup cell phone and put a bomb in it, then hex his primary so he had to use the backup, and boom; their worried about literal national survival, that'd definitely give you an extra push to put things together. In any case, it's causing the Iranian government fits.
Couple of days ago there was a news blurb about 'anti-war activists' having their homes raided, etc.; here's a bit more on that:
Before the FARC terror leader was killed he met with a leader of the radical leftist RNC Welcoming Committee who travelled to Colombia for the meeting. Reyes was responsible for kidnapping Americans and trafficking drugs to pay for terror. Like the Marxist Reyes, RNC activists also planned to kidnap Republican delegates in St. Paul in 2008.
Ray Robison at The Examiner reported on the links between the RNC Welcoming Committee activists and the Marxist FARC terrorists in the Colombian jungles.
...
Videos of the speeches are on Google. These websites indicate that Walker, the union leader and Sundin, a union member coordinated for the RNC Welcoming Committee and that it was open knowledge at the time that it was an anarchist group. The “fight back” website also cites a speech in 2004 by union President Walker about a trade dispute with U of M in which she stated that the union should use “any means necessary”. In 2005 she was served with a summons for obstructing legal process but the charges were dismissed for her role in a campus protest.
In other words, she was in it up over her ears. Including the meeting with narcoterrorists described at the start:
In one article on the “fight back” website Sundin describes a trip to Columbia to meet with the now deceased infamous FARC commander Raul Reyes as a representative of the “US solidarity activists”. Reyes was a Communist guerrilla fighter known for cocaine trafficking and kidnapping Americans. Saint Paul Police have alleged a kidnapping plot by the anarchists aimed at the RNC.
And, not surprising, this clown Sundin got a warm wet feeling about this dirtbag:
Sundin described the FARC leader who was convicted of the murders of over a dozen Columbian police officers as such “I enjoyed his warmth and humor. He had a friendly, round face, a quick smile, and surprisingly gentle hands.” (Gee, I wonder how she came up with THAT description?) Of his death she wrote “The criminal Colombian government and their U.S. accomplices should be called to pay for this cowardly and criminal attack.” The Republican Party strongly supports the government of Columbia in its’ fight against the FARC. Some experts consider anarchist groups to be based on communist ideals and fronts for communist activities.
So she's a union clown, she works with anarchists and terrorists, and the Colombian government whacking a terrorist is- of course!- 'cowardly and criminal'. Nice people in the unions and 'anti-war' groups, huh?

I need breakfast. Later, folks.
The Iranian Ministry has stated that some 30000 industrial computers have been infected by Stuxnet. One of the main operations done by Stuxnet is that it extracts vital information from these systems and then sends it somewhere abroad. Iran has termed this virus as a spy virus, as it is deploying vital data to other countries. On the other hand it is said, a similar attack has been reported from Iran’s latest nuclear power plant facility, but these reports have not yet been confirmed.Three-thousand industrial computers … what industries and how extensive the damage is Iran isn’t saying. But we can hazard the guess that most of it is militarily related. Besides the ability to send information abroad, “Stuxnet” is reportedly able to commandeer computers and direct them to destroy what they are managing. If true, this changes the face of warfare.
If they're admitting that, no telling how bad the damage actually is. Little further along it's suggested getting the thing into their systems was an inside job; I have to wonder.

The website ProtestRNC2008.org carries a press release which sheds light on the activities of the RNC Welcoming Committee. The online notification posted June 8th, 2007 by a woman named Jessica Sundin calls for a meeting at the University of Minnesota Student Union Center co-hosted by the RNC Welcoming Committee. Sundin is a clerk at the University of Minnesota. Another press release was posted by Sundin in the name of the RNC Welcoming Committee after the convention began.Yeah. Right. Further along we find
Ms. Sundin told the Pioneer Press outlet TwinCities.com that she had discussions with the anarchists “but only to make sure they don’t disrupt the march.” Sundin claimed “They’ve made a commitment not to interfere”.

The SEIU: Voter Fraud A Specialty
At least in some areas.
“The first thing we started to do was look at houses with more than six voters in them" Engelbrecht said, because those houses were the most likely to have fraudulent registrations attached to them. "Most voting districts had 1,800 if they were Republican and 2,400 of these houses if they were Democratic . . .
"But we came across one with 24,000, and that was where we started looking."
It was Houston's poorest and predominantly black district, which has led some to accuse the group of targeting poor black areas. But Engelbrecht rejects that, saying, "It had nothing to do with politics. It was just the numbers.”
Yeah, but you uncovered fraud and 'RACIST!' is one of the standard accusations Democrats and progressives use to try to shut you up.
“Vacant lots had several voters registered on them. An eight-bed halfway house had more than 40 voters registered at its address,” Engelbrecht said. “We then decided to look at who was registering the voters."
Guess who?
Most of the findings focused on a group called Houston Votes, a voter registration group headed by Steve Caddle, who also works for the Service Employees International Union. Among the findings were that only 1,793 of the 25,000 registrations the group submitted appeared to be valid. The other registrations included one of a woman who registered six times in the same day; registrations of non-citizens; so many applications from one Houston Voters collector in one day that it was deemed to be beyond human capability; and 1,597 registrations that named the same person multiple times, often with different signatures.
Caddle says "mistakes were made" as his excuse; if you're dumb enough to believe all this was 'mistakes', I have a bridge across Lake Lawtonka I'd like to sell you.
You really ought to read the whole thing, as they say. I'm going to borrow one more part:
The outcome of the efforts grew in importance the day after Vasquez made his announcement. On the morning of Aug. 27, a three-alarm fire destroyed almost all of Harris County’s voting machines, throwing the upcoming Nov. 2 election into turmoil. While the cause wasn’t determined, the $40 million blaze, according to press reports, means election officials will be focused on creating a whole new voting system in six weeks. Just how they do it will determine how vulnerable the process becomes.
Isn't that just effing AMAZING? Massive vote fraud uncovered and right after that the voting machines are all destroyed, creating a whole NEW set of openings for fraud! Amazing coincidence, isn't it?
Again, if you believe that...

Re fhe previous, Lawdog decided to play
and included this as his summation(read the whole thing, but this part needs to be spread around):
Since what you consider to be reasonable isn't even in the same plane of reality with what I consider reasonable, probably not.
Allow me to explain.
I hear a lot about "compromise" from your camp ... except, it's not compromise.
Let's say I have this cake. It is a very nice cake, with "GUN RIGHTS" written across the top in lovely floral icing. Along you come and say, "Give me that cake."
I say, "No, it's my cake."
You say, "Let's compromise. Give me half." I respond by asking what I get out of this compromise, and you reply that I get to keep half of my cake.
Okay, we compromise. Let us call this compromise The National Firearms Act of 1934.
There I am with my half of the cake, and you walk back up and say, "Give me that cake."
I say, "No, it's my cake."
You say, "Let's compromise." What do I get out of this compromise? Why, I get to keep half of what's left of the cake I already own.
So, we have your compromise -- let us call this one the Gun Control Act of 1968 -- and I'm left holding what is now just a quarter of my cake.
And I'm sitting in the corner with my quarter piece of cake, and here you come again. You want my cake. Again.
This time you take several bites -- we'll call this compromise the Clinton Executive Orders -- and I'm left with about a tenth of what has always been MY DAMN CAKE and you've got nine-tenths of it.
Then we compromised with the Lautenberg Act (nibble, nibble), the HUD/Smith and Wesson agreement (nibble, nibble), the Brady Law (NOM NOM NOM), the School Safety and Law Enforcement Improvement Act (sweet tap-dancing Freyja, my finger!)
I'm left holding crumbs of what was once a large and satisfying cake, and you're standing there with most of MY CAKE, making anime eyes and whining about being "reasonable", and wondering "why we won't compromise".
I'm done with being reasonable, and I'm done with compromise. Nothing about gun control in this country has ever been "reasonable" nor a genuine "compromise".
Since what you consider to be reasonable isn't even in the same plane of reality with what I consider reasonable, probably not.
Allow me to explain.

I'm left holding crumbs of what was once a large and satisfying cake, and you're standing there with most of MY CAKE, making anime eyes and whining about being "reasonable", and wondering "why we won't compromise".
I'm done with being reasonable, and I'm done with compromise. Nothing about gun control in this country has ever been "reasonable" nor a genuine "compromise".
Just in case you haven't heard, SiH answered 20 questions
from a Brady board member. Joe Huffman jumped in and asked a question, and never got a real answer(further thoughts from him here). Lots of other people jumped in, and Reasoned Discoursetm broke out at some point. One of the answers made Tam's QoTD:
4. Do you believe that I and people with whom I work intend to ban your guns?
Yes.
5. If yes to #4, how do you think that could happen ( I mean the physical action)?
The question is incoherent. "Banning" requires no physical action at all, and is quite simple to do. Even Clinton managed it. If you mean confiscation, well, there you've got a problem. Were you really coming to me for suggestions?
Tam's suggestion being 'Get bent'.
Added: I just looked at the site, and the first post that comes up is labeled 'Guns and religion', and is summed up by
...There is a web site called "God, Not Guns" that focuses on how the faith community can talk about gun violence as a peace and justice issue. Since peace and justice issues are natural topics for discussion for faith communities, the issue of gun violence fits with the message that most religious leaders espouse.
from the first paragraph. What jumps out at me is she's so specifically against 'gun violence', not violence in general; is there something about being stabbed or strangled that's just not as objectionable as being shot, or what? And my hackles tend to go up at things like 'peace and justice issue'; I've heard too many people use that as a "And if you don't agree you don't want Peace and Justice!" stick. And it goes from there. Including, of course, the Nasty Hatemongering Against Muslims:
...The topic for that day was the intolerance and hate that had fomented during the weeks leading up to September 11th and the "Ground Zero Mosque" including the possible burning of Korans by Florida Pastor Terry Jones. It was good to remind us of what St. Francis was telling his followers and what he can teach us still.
I'm not bored enough to dig through the place, but I wonder if she and her church have ever castigated muslims for the intolerance and hate they've shown for Jews, Christians, pagans, the US in general and the right of free speech in particular? Or the burning of Bibles? Or that Jews aren't even bloody ALLOWED in Saudi? I know, dumb question.
Down at the end she gets to a "Some of my best friends areevil bastardgun owners!" moment:
There are hunters and gun owners there. They have signed a resolution in favor of the gun show background check bill. They don't have a problem with the bill and know it will not restrict any of their rights. (They may not think it does; they're wrong) I also know that they don't believe that God gave them the right to keep and bear arms but rather that owning guns is a personal decision having nothing to do with their faith.(They're free to believe whatever they want; my objection is you and they wanting to force your beliefs on me and restrict MY rights) I value their opinions and their willingness to join me in seeking a better world where people are not shot to death in large numbers daily. Oh, for Deity's sake! "If you don't agree with us, you don't mind lots of people being shot! Or maybe you LIKE the idea!" Bleep.
I'm thinking Huffman is on to something.

MADD not only jumped the shark, they're fish poop; and what some cops do
instead of actually dealing with, y'know, crime and such.
Once again John Effin' Kerry opens mouth and very elegantly (updated)
inserts foot.
And his defense... "You people are too busy to pay attention to what's happening" from one of his ass-kissers. Yeah, all those tea parties and such are because we don't really care enough to pay attention, right?
Kerry made the remarks on voters following questions about U.S. Rep Barney Frank’s re-election campaign and queries about securing federal funding for the Hub hospital.
“I think a lot of the anger today - while it’s appropriate because Washington is broken - is not directed at the right people,” said Kerry. “Barney is prepared, as others are, to explain what we’re doing. I think when people hear the facts and they see what we’re doing, it frankly makes sense.”
That would be Frank trying to shove more of our money into Fannie and Freddie? And I'm still waiting for Frank to recuse himself from anything touching on these agencies since- far as I know- he's STILL sleeping with someone on the Fannie board of directors(unethical as hell, that).
And, Sen. Kerry, we've BEEN listening to your 'explanations'; that's one reason we're so damn mad, you arrogant little boob.
Update: Breda notes Simple slogan? You mean like "Yes, we can"? How about "Hope" and "Change"? That sound familiar?
I had to laugh.

The R Party got named the Stupid Party for good reason:
it earned it.
DeMint said he believed Wednesday's meeting of GOP senators was to choose a replacement for Murkowski, the ranking member on the Energy and Natural Resources Committee. But "one senator after another stood up to argue in favor of protecting her place on the committee," he said - resulting in an outcome he said she'll undoubtedly use in her campaign against Miller.
...
"It was bad enough to watch my colleagues work to support her in the primary after she had built a record of betraying conservative principles," he wrote. "But watching them back her after she left the party and launched a campaign against the Republican nominee was more than I could bear."
Well, guy, it's more than most of us can.
And we're damned sick of it.

That hearing today on the Justice Department failing to fairly enforce
the law on voter intimidation and such? Bad day for Holder & Co.
I'll let you look the piece over, I am going to point out one thing in particular:
Also on Wednesday, Mike Roman had a blockbuster piece that reveals Philadelphia New Black Panther Jerry Jackson, one of the polling place stormtroopers, is a felon in possession of a firearm. The Holder Justice Department is failing to enforce federal felon in possession statutes against Jackson, which make it a crime for him to possess a firearm.
Now isn't THAT interesting? The "We really wish the 2nd Amendment would go away" Holder & Co. are failing to enforce that law?
Any bets as to whether they'd have a problem enforcing it if Jackson had been white?
Oh, and two questions:
Did Colbert know he was there to distract from the above? And
Did this idiot think that being there would let him act like a moron(I know, how would he stop?) and get away with it?

Among the reasons so many people despise, and some actively hate, lawyers
"Tonight the death machine exterminated the beautiful childlike and loving spirit of Teresa Lewis," said the condemned woman's lawyer, James Rocap.
Really?
Lewis' life took a deadly turn after she married Julian, whom she met at a Danville textile factory in 2000. Two years later, his son Charles entered the U.S. Army Reserve. When he was called for active duty he obtained a $250,000 life insurance policy, naming his father the beneficiary and providing temptation for Teresa Lewis.
Both men would have to die for Lewis to receive the insurance payout.
She met at a Walmart with the two men who ultimately killed Julian Lewis and his son. Lewis began an affair with Matthew Shallenberger and later had sex with the other triggerman, Rodney Fuller. She also arranged sex with Fuller and her daughter, who was 16, in a parking lot.
On the night before Halloween in 2002, after she prayed with her husband, Lewis got out of bed, unlocked the door to their mobile home and put the couple's pit bull in a bedroom so the animal wouldn't interfere. Shallenberger and Fuller came in and shot both men several times with the shotguns Lewis had bought for them.
'childlike and loving spirit', yeah.
On a grassy knoll beside the correctional center, those opposed to the execution protested with signs and banners in the twilight Thursday. Critics said they were repulsed by Virginia's killing of a woman.
But they have no problem 'forgiving' her for the murders and betrayals and pimping, oh no.

Saw a bumper sticker earlier that just did not make sense
Wording was, as I recall, "Honk if I'm paying the bills for your whining teabagging ass"
?
Considering the people this asshole calls 'teabaggers' are generally the ones working and being taxed to death... maybe some federal government drone pissed at people not wanting to pay more taxes so he can keep getting a golden retirement package?
