Whackadoos of the day Whackadoo Number One Cindy Sheehan, mother of soldier killed in Iraq. Asked by a reporter on some ABC "news" show, "Would you have felt the same way if your son was killed in Afghanistan?" Sheehan (roughly, as I must recall from memory): "Why, yes, we shouldn't have gone into Afghanistan either. Why did we invade a whole country when it was just the Taliban and al Qaeda that we needed to go after. We shouldn't go into the whole country for a select few." What? What country? The Taliban = al Qaeda = Afghanistan, prior to the United States' 9/11 Patriot-Missiles-up-the-Taliban-ass payback. Then she says, "we've had no successes in Afghanistan." What? So the Taliban still roam the streets, whipping men whose beards are not long enough and cutting off the hands of women whose fingernails are painted? That still happens? They still have terrorist training camps operational enough to plot 9/11/07? FOOL! More on Sheehan later. She is a grass-eating pacifist who should be grateful she can speak out against our government this way; the way mothers in Iraq and Afghanistan have longed to do for decades, and may soon again, thanks to the Bush "regime." The utterly tragic loss of her son just gave her the podium she needed to spew her idiocy. Whackadoo number two Pat Robertson, Irreverent Reverend In 1993, Robertson said most Nazis were gays and said the two tended to go together. What? The Nazis vaporized gays, and hated gays because they weren't part of the Master Race. He's given us numerous laughable world political analyses, enough to fill 3 days on MWB. Yesterday, he gives us one more by claiming that Muslims and Communists are in it together and out to get us, together. What? Communists, real communists, are godless, soul-less automatons resembling the Borg. They remove God because supercedes The State. For radical Muslims, God is The State. Get it straight (so to speak), Robertson. You're looking as dumb as Sheehan. And I tell ya', that's a double-digit IQ from my view.

Read all about It seems such a waste of time to give these sociopaths another pose on their world stages whining "I'm sorry...I'm sorry...I'm sorry..." Do we believe it? Do we care even if they are? The death, destruction, misery they have heaped on their victims cannot be erased or soothed by such blather.

Read all about it Somalia is suffering from 14 years of war, child mortality rates which are the worst in the world, starvation, drought, and and and. And where is the UN? Is Kofi still at the ski resort or what? Now, we don't think there's enough money in the whole world to solve Africa's problems, however, if the UN's existence is to prevent and/or solve the problems facing countries like Somalia, then clearly it is a complete failure and should be disbanded. Spend the money on these people, not UN staffers and a very costly New York City HQ.

Read all about it Lance Armstrong, a vocal opponent of Iraq and boyfriend to a liberal fruitloop like Sheryl Crow, still earns an invite to President Bush's ranch. I find that truly remarkable and I do not know offhand of any such diplomatic olive branches extended by libs to their opponents.

Read all about it Courtney Love is in trouble again. Oh my god magnum, I don't believe it. Yet she brings us to the forefront of this whole drug war thing again. She's been arrested, sent for treatment, arrested, court-ordered for this, that, and the other. Nothing stops her. And she is not unique, she just has more money to blow--er, inject-- whatever she wants, really. But she's still an icon for all drug addicts. She may not be whoring herself for her fix (yet?), but she's the same. Nothing will stop these addicts and a huge amount of our physical (courts), financial (treatment centers, hospitals), and human (police, doctors, nurses) are dedicated to the havoc they cause. Why not just give addicts all the dope they want. They'll hit bottom faster, nobody will arrest them and force them into treatment they think they want but really aren't ready for, and they'll probably cause less damage. Or they'll kill themselves, which is probably what they're really trying to do. As long as we lace the dope with birth control, I think this is the best solution.

Read all about it The last time I went to SF, all the stores I visited had to scrub their storefront streets of human urine just to open. You took your life in your hands to cross the street. The food was bad. Yes, the restaurants I visited served very sub-par food and it was, of course, outrageously over-priced. With the famous SF cuisine now mediocre in many places, the assault of urine on the olfactory senses everywhere you go (both from the sidewalk and the bums paid to remain in SF), and the post-9/11 hotel and flight deals now gone, what reason does anyone have to go there? Couple all the physical drawbacks with the hideous politicized nature of everything they do--from not being able to call yourself your dog's "owner" to the article above which reports that the city of SF will not take a WWII aircraft carrier because of the military's current stance on gays--and you have every reason to visit San Diego just a Southwest plane ride south. With white sand beaches that do not smell, the Gaslamp district serving up hundreds of nightclubs and restaurants within walking distance of the trolley, a HUGE military base separating San Diego from Los Angeles, Sea World, the Wild Animal Park, open space, and much happier people (have you ever tried to hit on one of those SF earth mothers? Did your eyeballs survive?), you have a West Coast paradise truly worthly of your travel dollars.

Read all about it Michela thanks PT Cruiser for this one. We resume the long but ardent effort to keep this blog alive, through fires, floods, dog bites, and a miserable California August. So this story is about these cows that will get to eat Marijuana plants through the frigid Moscow winter. I can't think of a better way to keep the beef soft (those stoned heffers won't move a Moscow millimeter), the cows happy, and the pot supply in Los Angeles down. And you thought there was no war on drugs... It's a heffer two-fer for Ashcroft; keep the commie cows stoned and limiting the ever more dangerous flow of pot out of the great US of A. After all, you know how dangerous pot is...you know how many brawls you've seen between the stoners at baseball and football games. You can always spot them; they've got their mouths full of popcorn, a left fist full of cheetoes, and an empty right fist, and they're staring at both fists saying, "Dude, which one was I gonna peg the guy with again?"

- What century is this? What millennium? Who are these people who still write checks at the grocery store? - "Compact Car" parking spaces always far outnumber the normal spots. Hullo parking lot builders; my 3 series BMW doesn't fit in those damn things and the average car is a helluva lot bigger. Take out 2 spots per row, make the GD spots bigger, and ultimately, you'll create more parking because those Tahoes, trucks, Sequoias et al that must take up 2 spots will only take up one. Net net gain. Idiots! - Forwarding emails...my friends, delete my email address before you forward my email to 5,000 of your closest eFriends. The last thing I need is to get on some spam list. And when you send your idiotic garbage to me ("This was sent by angels! Forward to 7 people in 5 seconds and watch the miracle!") put me on your BCC list for the same reason. Better yet, leave me off altogether.

Read all about it It's utterly amusing that anyone would care that a Doonesbury comic strip used the word turd. I hear worse than that in the doorway into church... "Damn! I forgot my bible." I hear worse than that picking my niece up from preschool... "You fart head! That's MINE!" I hear worse than that in presidential proclamations.... "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." On any day of the week, I'd rather explain to a 5 year-old what "turd" is over "oral sex." Forget that, they use the word already. And, unfortunately, tweens now know what "oral sex" is, and use that already, too. Thanks Billy Blowjob!

Not only does he look like he was a babe in his prime youth, this Prime Minister calls it as he sees it and doesn't doublespeak like a typical pansy, vote whoring politician. Some highlights: "I remind you that terrorist attacks occurred before Iraq was on the radar screen, and those people who argue that this is really because of Iraq simply ignore those facts." Mr. Howard said the motivation was the same as that which prompted the October 2002 bombing of a nightclub in Bali, where 202 people died, including 88 Australians, which was before the March 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq. Here's a guy with Cajones. He's telling it like it is. 9/11 was before Iraq. Bali was before Iraq. The USS COLE was before Iraq. What I'm having trouble finding in the mamby pamby liberal media are his comments that the attacks are, purely, plainly, simply, due to the extremists' hatred of our free, non-Muslim way of life. He pointed out that Bin Laden's first condemnations of the nation of Australia were after Australia liberated East Timor from the hellish grip of those Muslim nazis. "Should Australia not have done that?" he says. Unfortunately, Prime Minister Howard, the pink ladies of the leftwing no-war-no-matter-what-pig-is-pulling-your-fingernails-off-one-by-one crowd would say, that's right, Prime Minister Howard, you should not have done that. Knowing a bit about the slaughters of East Timor, I doubt its residents feel the way the pink ladies feel. The pinko feminazi crowd signed a statement to Bush about not doing anything about the Taliban, and its oppression of women (never mind Billy Blowjob Clinton didn't do anything about them for 8 years, allowing terrorists to truly organize to the degree they are today). Then, when we did take out the Taliban, they signed something saying NO WAR. You can't win with the alfalfa snorting pink ladies; you just can't win.
