Couple of big crimes recently as well as resolutions to some ongoing crimes. There is a verdict on the Bell shooting and there were no riots. The FLDS cult filled with underage adolescent girls who are pregnant or have children. The subway pervert has a twin brother who is also a pervert, updates on the anthrax case, and this past weekend a boy killed his entire family, including his 14-year old brother who hid behind a clothes dryer to no avail. Much more.

How the mighty have fallen! A day ago, the leftwing loons were high-fivin' each other about how helpful Rev. Jeremiah's Detroit speech would be to Barack Obama. By yesterday evening, cold cruel reality has set in and now the loons are pronouncing DOA for Obama's candidacy. While watching this VIDEO clip of Wright doing impressions of JFK and LBJ as well as doing an imitation of the Florida A&M marching band, one thought kept going through my mind: this clown was Obama's mentor and spiritual guide. If Obama looked up to this whack job what does that say about...

Has anyone pondered the best way to spend your inbound stimulus package checks? "Geeks On Caffeine" shows us all why it's best to keep the money in the good 'ol U.S. of A.!

My hobby is Secrets. I am fascinated by secrets — the bigger the secret, the better I like it. Over the years, I have spent many hours and lots of money digging through mildewed stacks of forgotten government documents in libraries, reading reams of self-published zines and newsletters and pamphlets by crazy, semi-literate po' buckra, and going from link to link on the Tubes trying to glean tidbits of verifiable (or at the very least entertaining) information from various websites, all in an effort to discover the hidden truths that I crave. To this end I spent several years doing...

Seneca County NY is taking a stand against sex offenders. It’s among the first counties in New York State to tell moderate and high risk sex offenders where they can and can’t live. New residency restrictions on sex offenders just took effect in Seneca County. Thursday, some sex offenders started looking for a new place to live, because the new law regulates exactly where they can live and keeps them away from kids. Most Waterloo residents are happy about the new residency requirements in their county. County Attorney, Steven Getman, researched the law. He said the main mission in the...

What a difference a few hours make. As we saw in this morning's DUFU EDITION, the KOmmies were cheerleading on Jeremiah Wright, completely oblivious to the harmful effect he would have to Barack Obama. However, after a few hours passed by, the KOmmies began to finally wake up to the fact that Wright is KILLING the Obama campaign as you can see in this THREAD nervously titled, "Wright is a big fat distraction when Obama needs it least." Welcome to the Real World, KOmmies! So let us now watch the KOmmies bite their fingernails over the Wright Stuff in...

Granted, McCain has plenty of flaws, but consider the alternative... McCain on lower right In August of 1968, a program of vigorous torture methods began on McCain, using rope bindings into painful positions and beatings every two hours, at the same time as he was suffering from dysentery.[84][79] Teeth and bones were broken again, as was McCain's spirit; the beginning of a suicide attempt was stopped by guards.[79] After four days of this, McCain signed and taped[94] an anti-American propaganda "confession" that said, in part, "I am a black criminal and I have performed the deeds of an air pirate....

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) professes that “the consequences of America’s over commitment in Iraq are far broader and more insidious than Republicans will admit.” As a case in point, Reid cited the recent riots in the Congo. “While our resources have been sapped fighting a foolish war we didn’t need to start, greater evils are being perpetrated around the globe,” Reid said. “In the Congo, the forces of darkness have conspired to shrivel the penises of countless innocent men.” A wave of panic and attempted lynchings led police in Congo to arrest 13 suspected sorcerers for using black...

Answer: Malcolm X I just heard Rush mention that the ambasador Rev. Wright is blaming for his now famous "chickens coming home to roost" quote is now denying it. No Joke. Rev. Wright is a liar. I heard the whole sermon on Hugh Hewitt's show last week, and Wright himself is the one that mentions Malcolm X and chickens coming home to roost (Malcolm's quote was regarding the assination of Kennedy in Nov. 63) before Wright says it himself regarding 9/11. This demonstrates Wright is lying in his own words from his sermon. And it demonstrates Wright's attitude about Malcolm...

While campaign over the weekend Senator Obama attempted to rationalize his refusal to debate Senator Clinton. He stated that with such little time in both North Carolina and Indiana he would rather spend that time meeting voters rather than suiting up for a debate. In actuality Senator Obama (and his campaign strategists) have probably become aware of the fact that his polling numbers tend to go down after each one on one debate with Senator Clinton. Why would he willingly risk loosing a few more approval rating points with his lackluster Lincoln Douglas debating skills---

Al Gore reinvents the medieval racket of selling indulgences (pardons for one's sins, worth hundreds of years of penance in an invisible Purgatory). With due credit to Geoffrey Chaucer for the original: Now, good men, Earth forgive you each trespass, And keep you from the sin of greenhouse gas. My carbon offsets cure and will suffice, So that it gains me gold, or silver brings, Or else, I care not- brooches, spoons or rings. You must embrace fully Al Gore’s line of bull, While o’er your eyes we will pull the wool! An offset certificate I’ll give you, anon, And...

I almost died, and the Vietnamese people saved my...

Viewing The 1960s From My 60s By Burt Prelutsky Even though I'm embarrassed to have been a Democrat for so many years, I'm proud that even in my 20's, I thought the 60's was the worst decade in America's history. Because I was born in 1940, I was at UCLA for some of those years and had a bird's eye view of my fellow college students. It was not a pretty sight. What makes that time the source of so much nostalgia for so many people of my age -- the incessant folk songs, the tie-dyed shirts and blouses, the...

You can't replace Pookie's Toons, but here's a collection of some of my own recent ONLINE COPYRIGHT FREE cartoons and paintings. Enjoy: my cartoon is way too inappropriate to ever see syndication. I've pretty much become Catholic oriented and non-partisan now, although I turn out enough conservative-friendly stuff to put together a thread here every month or so. Again, you can't replace Today's Toons, but it's something. Revision of a cartoon from 2005, in response to the recent story about Planned Parenthood clinics saying they accept race-targeted abortion donations. My 'Memories Of Barack Obama's Breakfast' oil painting, which made the...

You couldn't have missed it, if you tried. There were TV specials on National Geographic, CNN, the History Channel and the Discovery Channel, among many others. Oprah commemorated the event and every newscast seemingly reminded viewers of the day's significance. It was Earth Day, a holiday meant to celebrate the Earth, but something just didn't feel right about it. Perhaps it's because Earth Day seems to be transforming into ...

What are the trendiest sunglasses of the season? From enormous-sized shades, aviators (and their variations), Jackie O styled mute-toned-to-round lens ala 70s - all are worth mentioning. Seen on many celebs these days, Ray-Ban Wayfarers are still popular in S/S 08.

On the heels of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's speech last night in Detroit, the happiest person in the country has to be Hillary Clinton. The Wright speech, over a half hour chock full of total buffoonery, is the best thing that could have happened for Hillary. Meanwhile, one can picture Barack Obama with hands over his face as Wright spouted nonsense about left and right brains along with poor impressions of JFK and LBJ along with his imitation of the Florida A&M marching band. For most of us it was high comedy laughing AT Wright but for Obama it must...

PART 1 In just one year. Remember the election in 2006? Thought you might like to read the following: A little over one year ago: 1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high; 2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon; 3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%. Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we have seen: 1) Consumer confidence plummet; 2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3.50 a gallon; 3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase); 4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund...

To the 20 million illegal aliens squattting tax-free in America, a 'Cinco de Mayo' greeting: The American public is FED UP with the invasion of our sovereign nation by third-world outlaws from Mexico and the rest of Central and South America. We are FED UP with the refusal of the federal government to secure our borders, opting instead to provide big business with slave labor in the form of illegals from Mexico. This irresponsible policy leaves our nation vulnerable to terrorism, and we are FED UP with this endangerment of American lives for cheap fruit. We are FED UP with...
