Politically incorrect

Something tells me that Jon Voight isn't going to be invited to the next White House sing-along:

An open letter from actor Jon Voight to President Obama:

June 22, 2010

President Obama:

You will be the first American president that lied to the Jewish people, and the American people as well, when you said that you would defend Israel, the only Democratic state in the Middle East, against all their enemies. You have done just the opposite. You have propagandized Israel, until they look like they are everyone's enemy — and it has resonated throughout the world. You are putting Israel in harm's way, and you have promoted anti-Semitism throughout the world.

He doesn't exactly get much less scathing in the rest, which you should also read.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the careers of people like Voight. If there's any evidence that they get blocked from working in Hollywood because of their political views, that whole "McCarthyism!!!!" charge isn't gonna go away, but it sure will be fun to shove back into certain peoples' goddamn faces.

This has to be fake:

This guy goes nuts after his WoW characters are deleted -


1. That isn't the screen for an empty realm
2. Why is there a video? Do they just have 24 hour surveillance on the WoW login screen.

Ouch.

In which VDH lays the smack down.

Best (by which I mean bitchiest) parts?

And this. 

I do so love seeing VDH get all testy.  He does it with such grace and style.

New York smokers

May want to find out if they sell Astroglide in 55 gallon drums.

The Legislature was considering Gov. David Paterson's $1.60 increase in the state cigarette tax that's now $2.75 per pack. That would increase the cost of cigarettes in New York state from about $7.60 a pack to $9.20. In New York City, which has its own $1.50 tax, the price could jump to near $11. Paterson's bill would also double the tax on chewing tobacco and many other tobacco products while finally taxing little cigars as much as cigarettes.

BTW, it sounds like they're hurting bad enough on budget to try and shake down the reservations...I hope the Natives fight like hell.

Or better yet, PA should drop its taxes on cigs so we can build a bunch of shops along the NY/PA border, hell, we could do that now as long as the short bus all-stars in Harrisburg don't fuck it up.  Hmmm...

Dr. Jenny McCarthy proven wrong. Again.

Researchers at the University of Rochester Medical center tested the idea that a gluten-free and casein-free diet could help children with autism.  It didn't.

Doctor Funbags can stop selling her snake oil any time now.

Well, nobody's perfect

Especially not French amateur surgeons/cannibals. Or, apparently, their prison guards...

A French prisoner killed his cellmate then sliced open his chest to remove and eat his heart, a court has heard.
However, the man removed the wrong organ, and ate his lung by mistake.

Nicolas Cocaign, 39, appeared in court in the northern city of Rouen for allegedly killing Thierry Baudry in January 2007 by punching and kicking him, stabbing him with a pair of scissors and suffocating him with a rubbish bag.

Mr Cocaign then allegedly sliced open Baudry's chest with a razor blade, removed a rib and pulled out an organ which he believed was the man's heart, but which in fact was a lung.

He is accused of eating part of the lung raw and then frying the rest of it with some onions on a makeshift cooker in the cell in the Rouen prison.

Leaving aside the fact that the beating and stabbing might have been, I dunno, a little bit noisy, how do you miss a heat source in a prison cell? And how do you get onions in there? Oh, wait...


Well, at least Paul Sorvino never resorted to cannibalism.

Tomorrow Is The Day To Tell The RNC To Fuck Off

Yes, tomorrow is the day that Nikki Haley will probably win the GOP nomination for SC Governor (and, likely, the state house). This in the face of a GOP establishment that threw everything they had at her, to include lies about her virtue, religion, and state of mind. And nothing could fucking make me happier.

Yes, the fuckdorks at the RNC think that they know better than we do. Well, fuck them. Fuck them with a side of ribs and a kick in the balls. Fuck them for fucking us over and telling us that we have to take it. Fuck them forever.

So fuck you, RNC. You fucking can go and suck off a goatse for all I care. And learn to call Nikki Haley Governor Haley soon enough.

You know what? I'll just go with what Michael Barone says

In re:  recent Head Moron Blog unpleasantness, I'll simply take  Michael Barone's side.

Key quote:

Finally, there's the $20 billion escrow fund that Obama pried out of the BP treasury at the White House when he talked for the first time, 57 days after the rig exploded, with BP Chairman Tony Hayward. It's pleasing to think that those injured by BP will be paid off speedily, but House Republican Joe Barton had a point, though an impolitic one, when he called this a "shakedown."

For there already are laws in place that ensure that BP will be held responsible for damages, and the company has said it will comply. So what we have is government transferring property from one party, an admittedly unattractive one, to others, not based on pre-existing laws but on decisions by one man, pay czar Kenneth Feinberg.

I've had a simple political guide for years that's yet to fail me.  Whatever Barone says?  I'm going to assume his evaluation is correct until proven otherwise.  So.  Yeah.  It was a shakedown.  And someone other than a pundit needed to say so.  If anyone else wants to consider me a political naif for adopting that position?  Well.  FYNQ.

Obama: "Yeah, About That Border Fence..."

If true, this is a bit much, even for The Chicago Way.



Oh, and fuck this shit if it is true. Fuck any "compromise" with Obama if these are the fucking terms. And fuck any Republican with the fucksaber of freedom dripped in fuck juice if they think that "getting something advanced" is a groovy deal if doing so means universal fucking amnesty.

I don't think many of our congressbetters realize that this is another one of the electoral fucking tripwires we the unwashed have right about now for telling you to get rampfucked with your failed careers if you cross it. Rewarding illegal activity for a promise of a fence that we all know will never get built so long as Democrats court votes of the criminal class is not the fucking way to go. We have already been spat upon over Porkulus, Crap & Trade, Obamacare, and the "jobs" bill. And this? No. Fucking. Way.

And what is fucking frustrating is that the dipshits at the RNC who told us Dede, Charlie Crist, Arlen Specter, and Bennett of Utah were the right ideas will probably fucking push this plan and call us idiots for opposing them. I have no proof, but the GOP apparatus has not been very inspiring in fighting socialism, so I would not be shocked if they fuck us over once again. And that is why I no longer give money to them.

So be warned, Congresscritters. Even thinking of advancing what Kyl claims Obama wants is a recipe to be called "former" Congresscritter.

The L.A. boycott is totally based on principles

Unless, of course, it happens to cost the city some cash...

Two much-debated City Hall issues are expected to converge this week when the Los Angeles Police Department's red light camera program moves to the front of the line for an exemption from the city's contracting boycott of Arizona over that state's new immigration enforcement law.

On Tuesday, the City Council is scheduled to consider — and appears likely to approve — an exception to the boycott allowing a 10-month extension of a multimillion-dollar agreement with Scottsdale-based American Traffic Solutions.

[...]

The council's Public Safety Committee says the exception is justified because red light cameras provide a "significant benefit to public safety."

$300,000 worth of Arizona's dirty, racist "public safety." Yeah.

Happy Father's Day

I know, it's a terrifying thought, but indeed some morons have reproduced...congrats on that...I guess.

Cheers to all the moron dads out there, it's a tough job, but someone has to raise the next generation of Val-U-Rite swilling, gun-toting, hobo-slaying wingnuts, and there's none better than you to do it.

Let us know if any of you guys get shirts.

(...but seriously, have a great Father's Day, we hope the day treats you well)

It's not like "Green Energy" is a scam or anything

What do you want to bet Al Gore is raking in some cash through this deal, somehow?

Britain's biggest wind farm companies are to be paid not to produce electricity when the wind is blowing.

Energy firms will receive thousands of pounds a day per wind farm to turn off their turbines because the National Grid cannot use the power they are producing.

[...]

It raises the prospect of hugely profitable electricity suppliers receiving large sums of money from the National Grid just for switching off wind turbines.

Shut Up, Peggy!

Seriously, shut the fuck up. I don't care that you finally seem to haltingly acknowledge what many of us have known for damn near three years now: that Captain Awesome doesn't have the chops to hold the highest office in the land. I don't fucking care about your tepid conversion, because you were one of the "Republicans" who thought that a flashy degree and a smooth demeanor was all that mattered over the experience and common sense others had. I fucking don't care because you went out of your way to tell us that he would usher in a new era of politics, not the naked shower attacks, thuggish union beatdowns, and general cluelessness he presents. And I really fucking in 3D Fuckovision don't care, because a good (hell, even a competent one) President knows how to handle a crisis, something lacking today.

But no, Peggy, you told us you and your ilk, of which Obama was and is a member, had all the answers (and what does that say about the East Coast Literati if this fool is their shining light?). You told us that a lifetime in a classroom mattered more than a lifetime in the fields. You told us that the ability to read a teleprompter mattered more than the ability to think on one's feet and rely upon instincts and experience. And you told us that we were illiterate hillbillies for daring to question the New Age of Awesome. And now that the veneer is dropping faster than your knickers at the White House Social Office, you want to call his reaction to being snakebitten into question?

Fuck. No. Fuck no with the fistfucked fury of a blueballed fucklion. Fuck you for what you have helped foster. Fuck you for helping to weaken and humiliate this country in the eyes of the rest of the world by helping this clown get elected. And fuck you just because your fucking arrogance in the face of failure is galling.

I want my country to succeed and be seen as a strong and powerful beacon of hope in the darkness that is the rest of the world. And I want my President (and yes, Obama is my President) to at least portray to the world a sense that he has everything under control. And we see none of that in Obama; instead, we see a bumbling clod who can only hope to threaten and bully people and businesses with the power of his office, not a man with a real plan and the confidence to accomplish it. And America is hurting because of it, both domestically and internationally.

So fuck you, Peggy Noonan. Fuck you for what you have done to this country. And fuck you for now begging for forgiveness after the damage has been done.

Andrew Sullivan, political genius

Don't worry, the link below goes to NRO, not Andi's place:

“Palin is the only endorsement anyone wants. If you ask who the most influential endorsers are, Palin is numbers one, two, and three," - Rick Santorum.

But the entire Beltway assumes she is a non-starter in 2012. What kind of denial are they in?

Where to start?

First of all, we're in an election cycle where "the entire Beltway" is about as popular as Ebola. My Congressman, who happens to be a solid conservative, has been in Washington since 1999, and he won a three-way primary with just 49% of the vote—the lowest percentage of any campaign he's ever had, including city council races. How are Dems in Red States going to fare?

Secondly, which conservative candidate wouldn't want the endorsement of a popular political/opinion figure who has sold zillions of books (how are your various tomes selling, Andi?) and has a prominent platform on Fox News, the ratings leader among cable news networks? Sure, it's not as if liberal-leaning voters are going to vote for a Palin-endorsed candidate—hell, they'll probably run, screaming, in the other direction—but they weren't going to vote for GOP candidates in the first place. Palin's endorsements are meant to shore up conservative support and convince independents who lean right that they should vote against the Obama/Pelosi/Reid agenda that some of them voted for in 2008. Mistakes were made, she's saying.

And, then, there's the whole "non-starter in 2012" thing. Sully is assuming that her value is that she's going to be the pull for the politicians she's endorsing because she's going to run in 2012. While that may or may not be true, that isn't the point, is it? Palin's value is in the here and now, where there is a huge electoral surge in 2010 that hates what the Dems and Obama have been doing and want to sweep them out of office.

TIME TO GO UTERUS SPELUNKING AGAIN!!!!!
