A German court has sentenced a man to a one year suspended sentence for trying to sell toilet paper with the word 'koran' on it to mosques. In an accompanying letter the 61 year old Manfred van H called the koran a 'terrorists cookbook'. The court found him guilty of insulting the islamic belief and of disturbing the public order. Van H sent the toilet paper to fifteen mosques, tv stations, and magazines. With the profits Van H wanted to erect a monument to those that have died at the hands of islamic terror. Iran complained to the German ministry...

Here's a toon about the media and Mohammed. http://toonshine.blogspot.com/

Dear Mr. Tagliabue, I’d like to take this opportunity to apologize to you and the league for my intemperate remarks at our ceremony at Qwest Field concerning the officiating during the Superbowl. On Monday, just one short day after “losing” (oops) the game, I was still burned about the outcome, and I had consumed about a pound of bad jumbo shrimp for lunch, my stomach was churning, and it was just a bad day all around. I came home from Detroit, our cat was missing from the house, the Governor’s dog was hit by a car, and she was blaming...

In this war freedom should come first not after! In New Hampshire the Motto is Live free or Die! I don't need Bush spying on law abiding americans and taking our freedoms. Anyone who surrenders a square inch of freedom to the government in the name of saftey is a traitor and should be treated like one! Let the Bush Fashists all drop dead! Filthy Commys! LET FREEDOM RING!

Naked Mole Rate Colony or The Democratic Underground?

Bush’s giant Right Wing Noise Machine (RWNM) loves to preach about the Bush economic miracle. In fact, the RWNM’s current thinking is Bush doesn’t spend enough time talking about his economic triumphs. If only he did, then everyone would fall in line and believe in the great Bush economic miracle. There is one problem with this argument: it’s a lie. Any way you look at the Bush economy, it comes up short. Today, I want to compare Bush’s job creation record with other economic recoveries. As usual, Bush comes up way short. The national Bureau of Economic Research has identified...

Tussaud's turn Bush and Blair into pantomime cow Thu Dec 15, 5:04 PM ET LONDON (AFP) - Madame Tussaud's has turned US President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair into a pantomime cow for their Christmas display, the waxwork museum said. The world statesmen were dressed up as a cow from "Jack and the Beanstalk" in a new scene featuring characters from pantomime favourites at the popular London tourist venue. Some other famous faces got a festive makeover. "Friends" star Jennifer Aniston has been cast as Snow White, her ex-husband Brad Pitt as Prince Charming -- while...

Due to the importance of the latest discoveries, here's another update. For the first time I'm updating twice on one day. I'm sure you've already been waiting for some proof about the GPL infringement by F4I. This post contains it in the already well-known form of a comparison between the original C code and an annotated disassembly of the F4I binary. All C code is from the function DoShuffle from the file drms.c which is part of the VideoLAN project. I want to mention though that I'm not going to explain all code because the function is pretty long. I've...

IT'S OFFICIAL: 2005 WILL BE the newspaper industry's worst year since the last ad industry recession. And things aren't looking much better for next year either, according to a top Wall Street firm's report on newspaper publishing. "Sadly, 2005 is shaping up as the industry's worst year from a revenue growth perspective since the recession impacted 2001-2002 period," says the report from Goldman Sachs, adding a warning that meaningful growth in 2006 is "very unlikely."

I only say this because it's impossible to diverge from the "group think" or else you'll be prohibited from coming back. Why?

A woman sued the Archdiocese of St. Louis and Our Lady of Help of Christians Roman Catholic Church in Ste. Genevieve, Mo., on Friday, claiming she was hit in the head by a baseball near a church picnic dunking booth. Donna Tinsley's suit in St. Louis Circuit Court says she was sitting down when hit by the baseball, which had been thrown at a dunking booth target...

WASHINGTON, DC --- After a recent shocking revelation that a terrorist in Guantanamo Bay prison was forced to wear a bra and act like a dog, Senator Dick Durbin called for banning all fraternities on college campuses. "Gitmo is run just like the Gulags, like Nazi death camps, like Pol Pot's killing fields," said Durbin. "And these recent antics demonstrate that the tactics of these monsters are similar to those used in hazing incidents at fraternities. We owe it to ourselves to end the use of tactics that would make Hitler blush at our own university system. Some day the...

ESPN gets less sports-centered Cabler to broaden its field with more series, telepix By JOHN DEMPSEY Less hockey and baseball. More original movies and series. That's one big equation on the mind of Mark Shapiro, executive VP of programming and production for ESPN, who's gung ho about broadening the audience for ESPN by reaching beyond the stereotypical potbellied sports nut, stretched out in his undershirt on a Barcalounger with a can of beer in one hand and a remote in the other. ESPN and ESPN2 aimed the National Hockey League games it carried from 1999 through 2004 squarely at this...

A Muslim kicker who's been described by NFL scouts as having "a cannon for a leg" was detained yesterday by U.S. marshals, sources said today. Azwan al-Kickemfari, who holds the NCAA Division III record with a 62-yard field goal, was arrested while packing for his trip to New York, where the annual draft is held. "A Muslim with an actual cannon for a leg heading to New York," said one anonymous official. "You do the math...that's a recipe for disaster." al-Kickemfafi's lawyer, Steve Javits, remarked the FBI was "stepping way out of bounds on this one" and also added "law...

From ABC news: - The United States military has not yet managed to catch Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the top Al Qaeda-linked terrorist in Iraq. But they have perhaps snagged the next best thing: his laptop. snip On the hard drive was everything from information about Zarqawi's medical condition to pictures of himself, kept in a file labeled "My Pictures."

Liberals Concerned Military Wants Them Dead WASHINGTON, DC --- Liberals are running scared this week after a three-star general said in a press conference that "it's fun to shoot some people." The General was making reference to ruthless terrorists, but peaceniks, journalists and politicians are concerned that the military might think it's fun to shoot them as well. "I'm scared as hell," said a top Democrat asking for anonymity for security reasons. "These men actually enjoy shooting anti-American, freedom-hating scum. It's a fine line between the terrorists they like shooting and the liberals in this country. I purchased a bullet-proof...

You and your fascist co-horts will all be sorry when the Bush* administration is charged with stealing this election. His administration and this website is nothing more then propaganda for a fascist regime. We are watching you, and we will be there when you slip up and your face down on the ground because you slipped on your own Nazi style propaganda. John Kerry won this election and you know it! Everyone knows it!

THE REAL STORY OF RATHERGATE CBS announces staff firings and cutbacks, but what they didn’t say was that the big bloodshot eye network would be outsourcing its entire operation to India. Was it because that isn’t going to happen or that... THEY DIDN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW? Perhaps that’s something we’ll never know for sure but how long before Apu--I’m sorry--Brad, closes his newscast with "Courage"? Examples: Labor Day: CBS producer Mary Mapes speaks to Kerry advisor, Joe Lockhart, but both Lockhart and Mapes say they only spoke about "how damn hot it is around this time of year." Not...
