Well its finally happened, Goofball Sportscaster turned full time goofball Keith Olbermannn finally had an explosion in his shrinking cranium. Personally I thought he had totally lost it when he started calling the comparing Bin Laden's driver's legal battle an example of urinating on the constitution: So, besides urinating on the Constitution and the rights and freedoms every American soldier has ever fought to win and protect, the Bush administration has now decided that when its victims have actually served their sentences, doled out under its own medieval, quote, "justice," unquote, system, it still might not choose to set them...

And in a big way. A lot of you have seen the great ads produced by a group called Catholics Come Home. The ads, evidently, are working. And spreading. From the Los Angeles Times: The Roman Catholic Diocese of Sacramento is home to nearly 1 million Catholics. On a typical Sunday, less than 137,000 can be found in church. Now, using a strategy straight from the secular playbook, its leaders hope to lure back those who have drifted. The diocese and nearly a dozen others across the country are preparing to air several thousand prime-time TV commercials in English and...

A German commander who ordered an air strike on fuel tankers that killed dozens of Afghans used intelligence from a single observer in a possible breach of tactical rules. An American warplane dropped 500lb bombs on the tankers after they were hijacked by Taliban militants and then became stuck in a river. Reports suggested dozens of civilians could have been burned alive alongside the militants as villagers crowded round the lorries to collect fuel before the bombs struck in northern Kunduz province. The Washington Post reported grainy live video footage seen by the officer from the F15 jet had not...

This is an older video of Nancy (Queen Jezebel) Pelosi smiling and praising Van Jones. "He is what I like to call a magnificent disrupter of the status quo." Now, me, I would like to call him other things, but my account would be pulled.

The pushback after the resignation of Racist, Radical Marxist Van Jones is beginning... Kieth Olberman posted a diary on Daily KOS at 1PM today asking KOS'rs to send him EVERYTHING THEY HAVE on Glenn Beck,, Stu Burguiere, and Roger Ailes. QUOTE: Tuesday we will expand this to the television audience and have a dedicated email address to accept leads, tips, contacts, on Beck, his radio producer Burguiere, and the chief of his tv enablers, Ailes (even though Ailes' power was desperately undercut when he failed to pull off his phony "truce" push). This becomes necessary after this in order to...

True revolutionaries do not flaunt their radicalism, Alinsky taught. They cut their hair, put on suits and infiltrate the system from within. Alinsky viewed revolution as a slow, patient process. The trick was to penetrate existing institutions such as churches, unions and political parties.... Many leftists view Hillary as a sell-out because she claims to hold moderate views on some issues. However, Hillary is simply following Alinsky’s counsel to do and say whatever it takes to gain power.

What do Bobber the Water Safety Dog, a reach-in freezer, sliced ham and 115 office chairs have in common? They were all funded with Recovery Act dollars.-- These water safety mascots were brought to you by stimulus.The government has spent about $85 billion on Recovery Act projects so far, but not all of money is being used to fix roads, provide more Medicare aid to states, amp up clean energy programs or school repair. There are currently just under 22,000 contracts for stimulus projects. They range from just a few pennies for nuts and bolts at a local hardware store...

Van Jones is a gone pecan and the right wing libertarian movement led by the new de fecto head of the conservative party Glenn Beck smells blood . Fresh off the ousting of former special assistant for "green jobs" Van Jones Glenn Beck supporters are calling for the public lynching of FCC Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd . For conservatives to effectively target Mark Lloyd it looks like it will take more than it did to bounce Van Jones out of his position . Lets look into Mark Lloyd's back ground to see if there is enough rope.

This is a video of a Healthcare Town Hall with CT Rep. Jim Himes. A hispanic "clergyman" stands up and speaks english at first, but then switches to spanish because the representative speaks fluent spanish. The crowd goes wild, and things are said. Let's just say the sea of angry white faces is not happy.

Charlie Vandergaw and a conditioned grizzly at his Yentna River cabin. (Photo: Alaska Department of Fish & Game) No filmmakers ever showed up to glorify bear worshipper Donna Munson in the years before her horrible, bloody August death. Lacking the Hollywood connections of her Alaska counterparts -- Charlie Vandergaw and Timothy Treadwell -- she was easily dismissed by many as just some crazy Colorado woman who fed and mothered bears for at least a decade until one killed and ate her. "At 74," the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reported last month, "Donna Munson showed signs of dementia, suffered from...

We'll show those McCarthyites what real McCarthyism is. This is the finger I troll for dirt with! Incidentally, he keeps spelling "oligarchy" wrong to make fun of Glenn Beck, who attempted to create an acronym out of "oligarchy" but didn't include a word for the "c." Honestly, it's my guess that word was "communist" but he abandoned it before going live. Nope: Commenters tell me the word was "czar," and further tell me he deliberately omitted it to "set up" his liberal critics. I don't get that last bit myself, but that's what I'm told. You know the persnickety dick...

By Adrienne Ross Governor Palin's support continues to grow, which completely baffles those who never understood her support to begin with. After the media malpractice, after the bogus ethics complaints, even after Levi Johnston, she remains strong when much weaker souls would have been laid to rest by now. How is that possible? Keep reading. I will always remember the first time a student came to my defense in class. Somebody said something disrespectful, and, before I could open my mouth, someone else said, "Don't be talking to Miss Ross like that!" Silence followed. That was the end of that--until...

There are crazy people in this country. We all know it. Reality television normal people move right on past prove to us how many egotistical, shallow, completely uninformed individuals there are in this society. That’s freedom baby. But its interesting to note, in the wake of news that conservatives now outnumber liberals in every state of the union, that it isn’t EVERYBODY who’s crazy in this country. Remember that 35% of Democrats think George W Bush was in on the 9-11 attacks, and 26% are not sure. A MAJORITY of Democrats, not the country, believe the President of the United...

QUESTION: What mistakes do you think most people make preparing for what you and your countrymen have gone through? I wouldn’t call them “mistakes”, I don’t hold the SHTF Bible so all I can give is my humble advice which may be correct or not, so all I can tell you is “ I wouldn’t do that if I were you”, and depending on how sure I am , add a smartass grin smiley. There’s simply some preparations that make little sense if you think about it, others that I’ve seen that just wouldn’t work, in spite of all the...

Just when you thought the New York Times could not be any more partisan, biased and hypocritical, they go and pull a stunt that would make Janeane Garofalo blush.

The main point that probably deserves further mention about last week's Dead Kennedy Funeral Parade was the behavior of the press, which wept and moaned and gnashed its collective teeth with hardly a dissenting soul to say, "Enough, already," as though the corpse of a pharaoh was headed for its final hoedown with the sun god. I'm surprised they didn't decide to embalm the guy so people could troop past and touch the yellowed cadaver like they've been doing with Vlad "The Impaler" Lenin in Moscow for the past 70 years. It was all further evidence that statism has now...

Tom Brokaw: "It's frightening, frankly."

In THOUGHTS this week we have an update on the monarch butterflies for a chrysalis has been found! We've got lots on Van Jones, Obamercare and a new sinsister item found in the proposed health care bill. Plus a Georgetown Delaware cop killed in action, a tragic local story with national implications. Much more.

Labour MPs, including cabinet ministers, will take a quick look at the headlines this morning and think: right, that’s it. Several simultaneous stories smash a hole in the Prime Minister’s defence of his handling of the Lockerbie affair. The Sunday Telegraph reveals that “the British, Scottish and Libyan governments connived to free Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi on compassionate grounds”. Libya paid for medical advice that allowed the Scots to free the bomber. The Sunday Times claims that Brown “personally vetoed an attempt to force Colonel Muammar Gadaffi to compensate IRA bomb victims because it might have jeopardised British oil deals...

Muslims famously complain when someone does something -- anything, however seemingly innocuous -- that challenges, demeans, or merely calls into question some element of Islam. Now, a group of Muslims has gotten their comeuppance for making fun of the Holocaust. Read about the Arab Group Charged Over Holocaust Cartoon
