I had loads of fun dealing with a liberal statue-hater the other day. I screenshot it, blocked out the names, and added some commentary. I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed doing it.Apparently, I can't just post the screenshots here, so here are the dropbox links. Happy clicking!https://www.dropbox.com/s/hgs6sakv0cf4bsn/Pwnage%201.png?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/ytz5y4o0t63kdm7/Pwnage%202.png?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/1tlmr1vxe9ou5s8/Pwnage%203.png?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/utn0efqnzzk9j41/Pwnage%204.png?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/nrdmji00n528ebr/Pwnage%205.png?dl=0

Creator of Buffy, Firefly, Dollhouse, writer/director of the Avengers movies, and creator of comic books Fray and Sugarshock, Joss Whedon, has been accused by his ex-wife, Kai Cole of a series of infidelities throughout their marriage, often with people working on his films and TV shows, starting with Buffy, and as a result being a hypocrite “preaching feminist ideals” While Whedon had established himself as a feminist icon with the TV show Buffy The Vampire Slayer...he’d had several affairs with “actresses, co-workers, fans and friends” and kept them secret over fifteen years.... On-line reaction has been swift, and mixed, some...

Trump ignited a political firestorm yesterday during an impromptu press conference in which he said there was "blame on both sides" for the tragic events that occurred in Charlottesville over the weekend.    Now, the discovery of a craigslist ad posted last Monday, almost a full week before the Charlottesville protests, is raising new questions over whether paid protesters were sourced by a Los Angeles based "public relations firm specializing in innovative events" to serve as agitators in counterprotests.The ad was posted by a company called "Crowds on Demand" and offered $25 per hour to "actors and photographers" to...

Authored by Jim Quinn via The Burning Platform blog,“True patriotism sometimes requires of men to act exactly contrary, at one period, to that which it does at another, and the motive which impels them the desire to do right is precisely the same.” ? Robert E. LeeI consider myself a student of history. I’ve always been fascinated by the personalities who drove events throughout history. I probably would have been a history major in college if I didn’t feel the need to make enough money to support myself and my family. I chose a business major and decided studying...

Chelsea Handler has just achieved heights of “Liberal Idiocy” that even the most ardent anti-Trump celebrity has failed to reach. She Tweeted on Friday that there should be a military coup carried out to remove the president from office. What is more amazing is that she seems completely unaware of the lunacy she’s calling for. “To all the generals surrounding our idiot-in-chief…the longer U wait to remove him, the longer UR name will appear negatively in history,” she wrote. So she wants the United States military to actively remove an elected President from Office and doesn’t seem to care about...

A simple Colorado jazz concert reminds us how every element of modern culture is saturated with progressive talking points.

Democratic governor candidate J.B. Pritzker Monday pledged if elected to lead Illinois as a resistance state to President Donald Trump's policies and said Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner's silence on federal issues demonstrated he was "complicit" with the president. "I'm proud to be part of the resistance," Pritzker told a group of supporters, using downtown's Trump Tower as a backdrop. "When I'm governor, we're not going to be silent like Bruce Rauner. Illinois will be a firewall against Donald Trump's destructive and bigoted agenda." On Monday, Pritzker unveiled plans such as expanded availability of health care and protections for gay rights...

Donald Trump has finally returned the U.S. military to sound service policy when it comes to the gender-confused. For nearly the whole history of the U.S. military, and for almost as long as the idea of a “transgendered” person has existed, and for reasons that sounded-minded people have long understood and accepted, individuals who imagined themselves “trapped in the wrong body” (or some version of such perversion) have been barred from serving in any branch of the U.S. armed forces. The only thing that should be up for debate here is why this took so long. Perhaps it was just...

Highly political synods shattered Anglicanism's fragile unity. Catholics should take noteA former Anglican Chaplain to the Queen, the Revd Gavin Ashenden, is spearheading a revolt in the Church of England Synod over the thorny issue of homosexuality. Anglicans are talking openly about schism. Catholics the world over should be watching very carefully.Anglicanism’s real problem has always been a theological schizophrenia – the result, perhaps, of it having formed to appease a lusty monarch rather than to preach a creed with clarity. Ask a hundred Anglicans what Anglicanism actually is and expect a hundred answers. The Church of England isn’t, really, one Church...

Has any Freeper been to see "The Originalist?" If so, what is your recommendation? Is it fair to Scalia?

Newly named White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci may now be a fervent supporter of President Donald Trump, who he said in today’s press briefing he “loves,” (several times) but not so much for the president’s policies if the tweets he just deleted are any indication. Either that, or he’s had one hell of a conversion. On President Trump’s signature campaign proposal, building a border security wall on the U.S. – Mexico border, Scaramucci tweeted in December of 2015, that, “Walls don’t work. Never have never will. The Berlin Wall 1961-1989 don’t fall for it.” {..snip..}

The resourceful wizardry at the Dementiacrat party are going to unveil their new slogan for 2018. It took months of painstaking polling from these insightful mavens to come up with the most milquetoast motto ever. "A Better Deal: Better Skills, Better Jobs, Better Wages" Let’s have some snorts & giggles and give it some freeper editing. My entry ... Better Social Engineering, Better Plantation Overseers, Get on the Cattle Cars

At Cromwell High School in Connecticut, a 15-year-old boy with a mustache recently crushed female competitors in track and field, to the great dismay of the girls who have spent many intense days training so hard.This doesn’t seem fair, does it?It does in the left’s brave new world of fundamental transformation.The boy, you see, calls himself a girl. That’s his self-proclaimed “gender identity.” And all’s fair in the bizarre universe of modern-day LGBTQ liberalism. The Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference permits students and their schools to decide which teams they can join. The conference is abiding by state and federal...

I was born a liberal, in the mid ‘50s, in Southern California. Everyone was. We weren’t political, we were righteous. We weren’t informed, we were pliable. Craving fan-boys gorging flowery rhetoric. Low-caloric in substance, refute free. Facts are mean. And there is nothing new under the sun. Planted my grubstake in the South after the ’94 earthquake. I like these people, they’re real. Most seemed to go hog wild on honesty. And one boasting they’re basking in high cotton is as scarce as hen’s teeth. Hypocrisy is answered with, “well bless your heart”. And then you’re out. I came from...

A Seattle, Wash., councilman implied that a new effort to clean excrement off the side walk outside the local courthouse could be racist Tuesday. The crime and smell of urine and excrement have gotten so bad outside a King County courthouse that two judges are scrambling to find ways to fix the situation, reports the Seattle Times. King County councilmember Larry Gossett isn’t a fan of one solution to power wash the feces from the sidewalks to tamp down on the smell. Power washing the sidewalks is too reminiscent of civil rights activists being hosed down, he said. The area...

MILWAUKEE, WI — Penzeys Spices CEO Bill Penzey, Jr. is learning firsthand how blasting President Donald Trump is good for his bottom line. On July 6, Penzeys Spices gave away free Mexican Vanilla Extract (with free shipping) in honor of Trump's dubious comments made in reference to Mexican immigration and his continued desire to build a definitive border wall between the U.S. and Mexico. As Penzey learned, in just one day, his saw more orders placed than in the first 17 days of July last year combined. A 1,600 percent jump in sales caused such a stir, they had to...

In vino veritas. And with failed actor, Shia LaBeouf, we learned that a lot of vino led to a lot of veritas when he was arrested for drunken and disorderly conduct in Savannah, Georgia on July 8. The leftwing LaBeouf, while heavily under the influence of his alcoholic truth serum revealed himself as the worst stereotype of the one percent rich folks when he drunkenly boasted of his "millionaire lawyers." It is unknown at this writing what his sentence will be but his worst punishment is that the highly embarrassing police bodycam footage obtained by TMZ will follow him around...

A Pennsylvania woman landed in hot water after a video of her urinating on an American flag on July 4th went viral. The shocking footage, which shows Philadelphia-native Emily Lance using a funnel to pee on a small American flag draped across a toilet seat, was eventually removed from Facebook. However, it has been reposted on multiple pages and can still be seen here (WARNING: viewer discretion is advised.)

**SNIP** His shtick is simple. He plays a smug liberal elitist who lectures the audience on political matters. His enemies are “Fox News maggots.” His fictional character hails from Washington, D.C. His wrestling shorts bear a donkey. He insults his fans’ Appalachian accents, correcting them — “Do you live in a holler? No, you live in a hollow.” He even calls his finishing signature wrestling move the “Liberal Agenda.” In one promo video, he wore a shirt patterned with dozens of photos of Hillary Clinton’s face, patched together in a strange collage, and he addressed AMW’s fans: “You people need...

A high-level employee at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 2014 appeared to give leaders of liberal-leaning groups preferential treatment for posting and publicizing comments on the agency’s public forum for the net neutrality debate. Details of the highly friendly support were first described by then-The Washington Post’s Nancy Scola, who referred to it as an “unusual collaboration” in an in-depth report on the FCC’s filing system. Those details became significantly more incriminating after Mike Wendy, director of the market-oriented nonprofit MediaFreedom, recently received once-classified pieces of electronic communications years after he filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request....
