This sounds like a repeat of the Tower of Babel. On September 14, Nebraska Democratic State Senator Ernie Chambers filed a lawsuit against God.  The suit asks for a “permanent injunction ordering Defendant to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats.” Chambers alleges that the harmful activities God could stop are “fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornados, pestilential plagues, ferocious famines, devastating droughts, genocidal wars, birth defects and the like.”

Chambers has represented Omaha, Nebraska, since 1970, and after nearly 40 years in office, it sounds like it’s time for the ancient Senator to move on. Although he probably does not expect the Defendant to respond (in a legal manner of speaking), he had better prepare to argue when when he actually does face the Defendant in court… the Defendant’s court.

The insanity (yes, this is insanity: ordinarily and generally decent people choosing to associate with evil people over good people is insanity) of leftist academia is appalling as always. In the wake of the Ahmedinejad speech at Columbia University, the leadership of that asinine austere institution stated that they’d have hosted Hitler if he visited in 1938.

Ah, the joys of an easy target…

Some guys cought this guy peeping and tied him up until the cops came.

Why do we never hear about things like this?

A crew of four firefighters were ordered to drive their fire engine in the Pride Parade parade in San Diego last month. The crew was threatened with disciplinary action such as suspension, etc, despite the fact that other engine crews had volunteered to participate in the parade. During the parade, the crew was subjected to “vile sexual taunts from homosexuals lining the parade route.” They felt sexually harassed and intimidated by both the parade participants and co-workers who called during the parade and made derogatory comments.

The firefighters are filing a lawsuit saying they were harassed and subjected to a hostile work environment.

San Diego’s openly lesbian fire chief said Tuesday she has apologized to four firefighters, but the fire crew said they “didn’t perceive anything to be an apology.”

The chief says they are “launching an internal investigation.”

In the meantime, the firefighters are asking leave to file a lawsuit for the shame and embarrassment they suffered.

An intriguing read, but very sad.

The Death of Sanity occurred many years ago. We’re only just realizing how bad it can be. The elppA giB will need to fight this stupidity with small words of precise meaning to reach the hazy brains of it’s primarily somethin’ rich smokin’ sycophants.

Meanwhile, down in Hollyweird, the parade of stupid kids who have stupid parents continues.

The good news is most hot air has a good chance of being just that, Hot Air. And if hot air is good for the islands, maybe it’s not so bad for the rest of us. But people keep screaming that all that hot air is going to be stirring things up over the oceans and drenching all of us with huge and frequent hurricanes. Just how long is our collective memory anyways? 30 seconds?

Coming soon to a Persistent Vegetative Person near you… (and no, that won’t work on your grown son or husband) Yes, we really didn’t have to kill that poor woman. But, speaking of vegetables, have you heard of Vegansexuals? And no, just no… Apparently though, some people have higher aspirations than coupling with a human vegetable.

Moving the battlelines a bit. The war in Iraq is going swimmingly, as wars go. And now we’ve got traditionally liberal pundits saying this whole surge thing just may be working. Some people immediately begin saying those two really were never liberal, others just agree.

And for the final bit of news, which just may be interesting and important, Russia is a boiling pot.

Dr. Borlaugh disproved global paranoids such as Dr. Ehrlich and saved a billion lives, by most estimates. He has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Congressional Gold Medal, ushering him into the noble company of only five who have been given all three. Arguably, he ought to be better known than Paris Hilton, but such is not the case in this fickle culture we live in. But what did he do?

He was an optimist. While Dr. Ehrlich spent his years arguing that, due to overcrowding and population explosion, starvation would increase proportionate to population growth, Dr. Borlaugh worked to develop new methods of agriculture and new strains of wheat which were heartier, more disease and drought resistant, with greater yield. Because of his work, scientists estimate that a billion people in India, Pakistan, and other third world nations have not starved to death. You can read more about this man who decided that instead of throwing up his hands, defeated as he surveyed the dismal future of fewer fields and far more mouths, he would make those fields grow more.

Global Warming Most Boring Topic

It’s official, the topic of global warming is more boring than Al Gore himself:

The issue of global warming far out-performed other contenders for the title, such as the production of goat cheese, the musical genius of the artist formerly known as P Diddy and media speculation over the likely outcome of the upcoming federal election.

Edwards’ Wife Says He’s A Girl Where It Counts

We all knew it was true, but Presidential Power Puff Contender Edwards’ wife says Hillary is not woman enough to be President, implying, of course, that her husband is.

In Case You’ve Forgotten What Is At Stake

The Democrat Presidential aspirants are tripping over themselves trying to hand out a bigger slice of pie to more people. In this case, the pie is a bloody gruesome mess of severed limbs and contorted faces of children who will never see the light of this the sun or the beauty of this earth.

From The Pachyderms Archives, One For The Ages

Over at the Helvidius Pachyderm blog Theo pulled this jewel out of the depths of memory, a priceless, if slightly linguistically risque, rebuttal to every argument by every liberal everywhere. (apparently the Firefox dictionary does not contain “risque” by default):

That is so f’in hilarious. Who these pantywaists? Lemme shrink their heads real quick: they identify with the deer. Like the deer, they have been allowed to overpopulate because their natural predators have been hunted into extinction by the big, bad, unenlightened conservatives who fight and win wars. But here’s where they show their lack of fitness for survival: in their panicked fear of the “hunters” with guns (equivalent to the big, bad conservatives who are actually their protectors), they would rather see the return of their “natural” predators (Nazis, Communists, Fascists, crazy African warlords, and poor, misunderstood Islamofascists).

Stepping outside the metaphor for a second—does anyone know what has happened where the natural predators of deer (i.e., mountain lions and wolves) have been allowed to breed unmolested? Anyone? Anyone? Thaaaaat’s right! They’ve started attacking and mauling/killing humans in those areas, correctly identifying them as easy prey. That’s the problem with “solutions” offered by liberals—they get everyone else killed along with their dumb asses.
How’d ya like that?

You have to read where it came from.

The owner of Duncan M. McDonald, the King Counties disinfranchized canine voter (Is he the only canine voter?), was interviewed by the Evergreen Freedom Foundation.

Here is an op-ed on the topic too. Click here to view the editorial

Two years ago in Washington state, the unthinkable happened. The Republican gubernatorial candidate won, but by only a thousand or so votes. Some counties conducted re-counts to ensure the accuracy of their totals. King County, Seattle, conducted two or three re-counts, each time finding more and more votes for the Democratic candidate. Eventually, the Democratic candidate won by 120 votes.

Obviously, the losing party challenged votes and investigated for fraud, etc. More than 500 votes were found to have been cast illegally, but the various city, state and federal prosecutors refrained from conducting any serious investigations.

In protest of the callous indifference displayed by King County election officials (who ideologically sided with the Democratic winner), Jane K. Balogh, a 66 year old Federal Way resident, registered Duncan M. McDonald, her Australian shepherd-terrier mix to vote using a mail-in form last April.

Duncan was mailed a ballot in November and she returned it with “VOID” written across the face and signed with a paw print.

Election officials noticed the odd ballot and called Jane who admitted to the scheme, but Duncan remained a registered voter and was sent another ballot for an election in May.

Duncan was finally removed from the voter rolls three weeks after Jane was charged in King County Superior Court for “making a false or misleading statement to a public servant,” which is a misdemeanor, and “for filling out the false voter registration.”

A county investigator said the owner contended that Duncan was eligible because

He is an American citizen,
Was born in the United States,
Is over 18 years old (in dog years) and
Has never been convicted of a felony.

“The county prosecutor’s office offered to charge Balogh only with a misdemeanor and to agree to a sentencing recommendation of a one-year deferred sentence, a year of probation, 10 hours of community service and a $250 fine if she pleads guilty. If she doesn’t, the prosecutor’s office will charge her with a felony.”

After vigorously prosecuting this 66-year old, the county prosecutor should investigate ACORN for submitting 1,800 apparently fraudulent registrations after the registration deadline. The registrations contained forged signatures and often identical addresses.

The Center For Individual Freedom posted this quiz:

Who are the only two U.S. Presidents to date who did not grant any pardons during their terms of office?

George Washington and John Adams
James Garfield and William H. Harrison
Woodrow Wilson and Harry S. Truman
Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton

The Answer:

Presidents James Garfield and William Henry Harrison executed not a single presidential clemency action while in office, both having died before serving even one year of their terms.

Washington and Adams granted 16 and 21, respectively; Wilson and Truman’s pardons each topped 2,000; Reagan granted 406 and Clinton, 456.

Source: University of Pittsburgh School of Law

And some people are complaining about the communtation of one sentence? Don’t get me wrong. There are no excuses for obstruction of justice and perjury, but these figures from the records of other presidents put the situation in perspective.

Bonus question:
Which President signed the most clemency actions?

Answer:
Franklin D. Roosevelt signed 3687 clemency actions during his 12 years as President.

Behind the scenes, every day, a plugin on this blog protects against comment spam. As of this writing there have been over 550 spam comments caught and deleted by Akismet. My blog, being as it is a little ways off the high-traffic areas of the information super highway, gets relatively little spam, but still 142 legitimate comments compared with 553 spam… Let’s just say I really appreciate Akismet, and you should too.

But there are times when apparently legitimate sites use comment spam to attempt to drive traffic to themselves illegitimately and under false pretense. Consider this comment posted under my review of the movie Flushed Away:

Faction 3 | faction3.us
You cant imagine how much money they spend trying to silence good people who will put their lives on the line to fight for change.

I think you can agree this has nothing to do with the movie I was reviewing here. This comment was not flagged as spam and the only thing that caught my attention was the fact that it really had nothing to do with the article. I checked out faction3.us and found they had a prominent article on Net Neutrality, on which I had written. So I proceeded to look through my site for the article I’d written on Net Neutrality, assuming the poster had just mistakenly posted on the wrong article. So then I checked my spam list in the admin section and found two other posts were caught as spam, one from Faction3.us and one from congresscheck.com. Both these posts are in the form of raps filled with both lingual and mental ignorance, vulgarity, and evil. I’ve included them here, edited only for lingual vulgarity. Please proceed at your own discretion.

NOTE: I decided to post these to illustrate that it is not just mental slavery we battle politically but spiritual slavery at the heart of that mental slavery. The heart is full of sin and deception and the lips speak out of the fullness of that lost heart.

I was sobered when I first read these in their repugnant glory. Not only is it sad that there are those who believe such terrible falsehoods and are deceived in such astounding ways, but it is sad that they are able to make those beliefs so public on their own blogs. The internet is free and the truth is more than capable of standing up on its own in the face of even the most devious lies and assaults, so I have no fear there. But it gives an importance to my own small efforts here to spread the truth, shining the light to dispel the demons of ignorance.

You better believe I think I’m a crusader!
