"I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. They are so unlike your Christ" --Gandhi

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -Theodore Roosevelt

"A little revolution, now and then, is a good thing." -Thomas Jefferson-

"In my lifetime, we've gone from Eisenhower to George W. Bush. We've gone from John F. Kennedy to Al Gore. If this is evolution, I believe that in 12 years, we'll be voting for plants." -Lewis Black-

"When you're born in the world you're given a ticket to the freakshow; when you're born in America you're given a front-row seat. And some of us in the front row have notebooks and pencils." -George Carlin

Cheney to Break Silence in Fox Interview - Yahoo! News
Topic: Politics and Law 12:33 pm EST, Feb 15, 2006

Cheney was to appear on Fox News Channel at 6 p.m. EST, the network and the White House announced.

Well of course it'll be Faux News. You didn't think he'd talk to anyone who might, I don't know, ask him a REAL question did you?

Administration’s crackdown on leaks puts whistleblowers under scrutiny
Topic: Miscellaneous 5:36 pm EST, Feb 14, 2006

"Obviously, we are not going after every leaker," an official said. "But if the leaker comes from State, the Pentagon or the intelligence community, we will be ruthless."

So if the leaks come from the White House of the Naval Observatory, well that's ok? Why aren't we going after the guys who were doing the ILLEGAL things that were having whistles blown over them?

Hunter Shot by Cheney Has Heart Attack - Yahoo! News
Topic: Current Events 3:55 pm EST, Feb 14, 2006

The department found the main factor contributing to the accident was a "hunter's judgment factor." No other secondary factors were found to have played a role.

Hospital officials said they knew that Whittington had some birdshot near his heart ever since Cheney accidentally shot him Saturday evening while aiming for a quail. The pellet always was at risk of moving closer since scar tissue had not had time to harden and remain in place, they said.

Not to make light of this incident, but a second reason for the veeps office to hope this doesn't go any worse is, if Mr. Whittington dies from the injuries, Mr. Cheney is looking at manslaughter. If that happens, that's a very ugly can of worms.

U.S. Moves to Fight Internet Censorship - Yahoo! News
Topic: Miscellaneous 12:44 pm EST, Feb 14, 2006

The State Department announced plans Tuesday to step up a campaign to combat efforts by foreign governments to restrict use of the Internet.

Yep, censorship on the internet is bad in other countries, but it's okay here so we can get rid of porn...

Scalia Dismisses 'Living Constitution' - Yahoo! News
Topic: Politics and Law 12:13 pm EST, Feb 14, 2006

"That's the argument of flexibility and it goes something like this: The Constitution is over 200 years old and societies change. It has to change with society, like a living organism, or it will become brittle and break."

"But you would have to be an idiot to believe that," Scalia said. "The Constitution is not a living organism, it is a legal document. It says something and doesn't say other things."

Scalia completely misses the boat on this. He seems to think that this is an either/or proposition. It is not. The founding fathers did not consider wiretaps when they were writing it, and the Constitution says nothing about them, so there is no "originalist" opinion on the matter. Yet they have consistently been ruled on under the search and seizure clause.

I also suppose this means Scalia is pro-slavery since that's in there too. Sorry Tony, your intelectual position doesn't hold water.

The Trust Gap - New York Times
Topic: Politics and Law 3:41 pm EST, Feb 12, 2006

We can't think of a president who has gone to the American people more often than George W. Bush has to ask them to forget about things like democracy, judicial process and the balance of powers — and just trust him. We also can't think of a president who has deserved that trust less.

Time to move back to Crawdad Mr Shrub.

In Small Town, 'Grease' Ignites a Culture War - New York Times
Topic: Miscellaneous 5:36 pm EST, Feb 11, 2006

Jarryd Lapp, a junior who was a light technician on "Grease," said he was disappointed that "The Crucible" was canceled. But he had a theory. "The show itself is graphic," he said. "People get hung; there's death in it. It's not appropriate."

Ms. DeVore believes it was canceled because it portrays the Salem witch trials, "a time in history that makes Christians look bad."

Bullshit. These people never care about violence, that's fine. It's anything that's FUN that pisses them off.

To the people who protested about this? Find out when the train goes through your town and please be under it you brown shirted pieces of shit.

Dispatches from the Culture Wars
Topic: Miscellaneous 1:08 pm EST, Feb 11, 2006

Deutsche: It was known that I, uh, was an undergrad when I was with the Bush campaign. It was known that I was an undergrad when I worked for the inaugural committee. When NASA hired me, they knew that I was an undergrad. The only real, uh, the only room here for misinterpretation could be my resume. And I, you know, if there, if my resume is misleading, I take responsibility for that, no question, I do. Um, and I didn't never mean for that to happen. But I have never ever lied about my status, I have never tried to misrepresent that to anyone. If my resume was misleading, I take, I take responsibility, but that's not it, it's not about my resume. It's about this larger issue, it's about the agenda of global warming, and how these people are willing to resort to smearing a 24 year old junior appointee in an effort to just get one step ahead in their agenda, to get a little bit more face time in the media.

"I take responsibility, only, it was really the fault of these loonies who think that we're harming the environment... they're out to get me because I dared to tell the truth about the fact that there's no such thing as global warming. The fact that I totally lied on my resume is irrelevant."

Gimme a break, you lying sack of shit. Just because 75% of your bosses get away with lies doesn't make it guaranteed. If that shit happened to me, I'd have gotten fired. Fuck resignation... FIRED. And I'd be working at some monkey tech support job, more than likely, because no one wants to hire an uneducated liar. Or maybe I'm wrong... I guess Deutsche's situation proves that some people actually do hire uneducated liars.

And, while I'm at it, why is it that we allow people to use the word "agenda" and immediately discount the promoters of said agenda? Fuck yeah, they have an agenda... establishing the primacy of scientific logic over political bullshit is an agenda, and it's one that I have no problem getting behind. Fucking infuriating punkass kid.
