Vladimir Putin: Dirty, Theiving Bastard

Is Vladimir Putin corrupt? Ask Patriots owner, Robert Kraft. Looks like Vlad ran off with his superbowl ring.

Foes: Bush Speech Reinforces Iraq Fears

Once again, it puzzles me how these people get jobs in the news. First of all, again we have the problem of the headline hardly summing up the story. Only two people in this story had anything bad to say about Bush's speech, and one of them was a porter, which by definition a person stationed at a door or gate to admit or assist those entering. Is this really who they were referring to? They couldn't find anyone else to talk to, so they talked to the doorman. Nice. Hope they're proud of their degree in journalism. Or could that be general communication?

These are the kinds of people who wish they had their own editorials, and they're angry because they can't MAKE the news. Well, I have to give them credit. They make it as well as they can.

How is this news?

This yahoo story entitled, "Ku Klux Klan: racist group casts long shadow over US history", does not include anything new. So how is it news? Why do they "report" on this now? Not enough negative press about the US in today's news so we need to drag up old stuff? Is this some sort of "two-minutes-hate" for all the liberal yahoos of Yahoo?

Chauncy Biggins addresses the troops. 

Giant Popsicle Melts, Floods New York Park

This is a pretty funny story. I'm sure the liberals are all going to blame Bush for not signing the Kyoto treaty.

Here at the Cult of 7G, we support the troops. 

ACLU Says Bush Is Restricting Science

Just what purpose is the ACLU intended to serve? I found this story on Yahoo to be very illuminating. Now the ACLU, or American Commie Liberals Union, is charging that the Bush Administration is suppressing science.

The administration "has sought to impose growing restrictions on the free flow of scientific information, unreasonable barriers on the use of scientific materials and increased monitoring of and restrictions on foreign university students," the ACLU said.

Apparently, the ACLU doesn't understand why we should be concerned with foreigners getting access to classified materials. It's not like we're in a war with terrorists or anything! Now here's the part where they really show their true colors:

And the ACLU charged the administration with trying to suppress information on such topics as global warming, mercury emissions and emergency contraception.

Is the ACLU here to defend civil liberties, or are they just another mouthpiece of the Democratic Party?

Al-Qaida Announces Iraqi Suicide Squad

The eternally image-conscious Al-Qaeda has announced the formation of an all-Iraqi suicide squad. According to this AP story, it was to deflect criticism that most suicide bombers are foreigners. Apparently, they think they'll meet Allah if they give their lives to kill their own people. It would be poetic justice if they did get to go to heaven, but in tiny little pieces. I can't help but be reminded of the Judean People's Front crack suicide squad in The Life of Brian.


"We are the Judean People's Front crack suicide squad. Attack, Attack, Attack!"



"That showed 'em, huh?"

Groups Unite Against Military Recruiters

A bunch of liberal parents at a school in Philadelphia are pissed off because their school gave their contact information to military recruiters. They think the military unfairly targets minority communities in what some consider a "defacto draft." Frankly, I find the whole idea rather absurd. They always bitch about how the military always sends the poor and the minorities. Well tell me something. If the military set up recruitment offices in Beverly Hills, do you think they'd get very many recruits? The military is going to target the demographics that yield the most recruits. They're going to go where they can get people to sign up. It's simple marketing, and recruiters don't care what color you are, or what your social status is. All they care about is getting you to sign. And why do these parents object to their children being presented with the option of military recruitment? They don't want them to hear from people with views that disagree with them? Are they trying to limit the military recruiters' freedom of speech?

Some Perspective

I get so sick of hearing about Koran desecrations. What the hell is a Koran desecration? We're talking about a book! Apparently, people now consider flushing a book down a toilet to be torture. How the hell are we supposed to interrogate prisoners? We certainly can't use real torture like the taliban in Afghanistan or Saddam's brutal regime in Iraq. So what are we supposed to do if offending the prisoners' sensibilities is now to be considered torture? Beat them with fluffy pillows like Monty Python's version of the Spanish Inquisition? This is a war, and these people are the enemy. They need to be detained and the very fact that we're giving these people korans in the first place is a demonstration of our leniency, and our generosity. And the outrage in the arab world and in the American media is pretty ridiculous when you consider the desecrations committed by the supposed victims. What about the ancient buddha statues the taliban destroyed in 2001? Does that not count as a desecration? Or how about the desecration of jewish holy sites committed by palestinians? This whole thing is just another tactic to enrage the arab street and strengthen the resolve of our enemies.

Many Scientists Admit to Misconduct

Here's an interesting story from the washington post. According to an anonymous survey taken by 3,247 scientists, 5% admitted to throwing out data that didn't agree with their intended result. 15% admitted to changing their results to satisfy their sponsors. 13.5% used research designs that they knew would not give accurate results. This certainly makes one wonder about the veracity of the global warning threat.

Dean Defends Criticism of Republican Party

Now this just cracks me up. Of course he's going to defend his comments. Of course he's going to criticize the GOP. He's the DNC Chairman! Oh, and this is what really gets me

"This is a diversion from the issues that really matter:
Social Security, and adequate job opportunity, strong public schools, a strong defense," Dean said."

It's funny how he's not being criticized for talking about social security, job opportunity, public schools, and defense. He's being criticized for calling the Republican Party,

"pretty much a white, Christian party."

He's not talking about any issues. He's doing the same thing the Dem's have been doing for the last 6 years. "Republicans are wrong. We are right. What are we right about? The republicans being wrong, of course!"

Think up something new, you dimwits! Maybe if you actually proposed some bills or did something to show what you're actually being paid for, more people might vote for you.

Freedom of Speech

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying the company of a barking moonbat liberal. My friend Keith recently got married and most of his friends came from out of town to attend the wedding. One of them, I don't wish to embarrass by naming, so I'll just call him Bob. Anyway, Bob brought his new girlfriend from Wisconsin to the wedding. After the wedding, several of the other guests and I met over at the home of a fellow I call Canadian-Dan(he hates the nick-name but I think it sounds cool). We were hanging out, watching a cheesey action movie, and drinking some beer. Bob's girlfriend began to regale us on all the ins and outs of working in a wisconsin sex shop. She told us story after story, each one rife with depravity and filth. I would include an anecdote, but you really don't want me to. Trust me. After listening to this for a while, the entire group fell kind of silent. Apparently, she felt this was the appropriate time to test the waters for a possible political conversation. "Man, we should start a war against Washington." Normally, that would be my cue to pounce, but I decided to humor her by taking her statement seriously, for Bob's sake. "If we did that," I reasoned, "China would probably see it as their opportunity to invade the west coast and liberate us from capitalism." To which she replied, "At least then, we'd probably have freedom of speech." Her comment struck me dumb. I was speechless. Canadian Dan snorted and said, "Those people don't have any freedom at all." She fell silent, with a sour look on her face as though she'd bitten into an onion. I'm sure she must have thought to herself that this was just another bunch of evil fascist neocons, attempting to obfuscate. Perhaps somebody should tell her about how China has blocked their citizens' access to blogger.com and all blogger weblogs with their national firewall. Or how China is now forcing all of it's nations' webmasters and bloggers to register with the government, so they can be held accountable for "subversion." That's freedom in the communist worker's paradise.

Prison would prove tough if Jackson convicted

Gee, do ya think? And the award for the year's most obvious news headline goes to Reuters for this speculative piece. I know exactly what will happen to Michael Jackson if he goes to prison. They won't put him in the general population, which is what he deserves. If they do, he won't last five minutes. Let's just say he'll have a whole new reason to grab his crotch and scream, "Hoooooooooo!"

Man with a chain saw that was apparently covered with blood was let into the U.S.

Now this really makes me feel safe. According to this AP story, the appearance of being a chainsaw wielding psychopath isn't enough to prevent a border crossing into this country. Gregory Despres was covered in blood. He had a home-made sword, brass knuckles, a knife, a hatchet, and a chainsaw covered in blood. But they let him cross the border into the US anyway. According to Bill Anthony, a spokesman for US Customs and Border Protection, they had to let him in because he was a naturalized citizen and wasn't wanted on for any crimes. "Being bizarre is not a reason to keep somebody out of this country or lock them up. ... We are governed by laws and regulations, and he did not violate any regulations."

The Heterosexual HIV Myth?

"Has the Left’s agenda spawned lies about AIDS that have caused the needless infection and deaths of millions? To discuss this question and other issues related to the politics and science of HIV and AIDS, Frontpage Symposium has assembled a distinguished panel of experts."

I don't really know what to make of this. According to a panel of experts, heterosexuals practicing vaginal intercourse are not at significant risk for HIV. Supposedly, it's almost exclusively transmitted by i.v. drug use and anal intercourse. HIV is transmitted when there isn't significant protection from transmission, like skin or vaginal tissue. Apparently the membranes in the colon allow for large molecules to enter the body, such as nutrients or HIV.
I don't know if it's true or not, but these guys present a pretty compelling argument.

White House, N.Y. Face Off Over 9/11 Funds

If the federal government sends you money to use for a specific purpose, then you'd damn well better use it for that purpose. Anybody who receives federal grants for any reason knows that. But the lawmakers in New York must think they're special. George Bush pledged to send $200 billion in federal aid to help New York recover after 9/11. That included $175 million for the state's worker's compensation program. Of that money, they've only spent about $48.4 million. Then there's the $25 million for out of state workers. They've spent less than a million on those claims. Apparently, their needs were greatly over-estimated. So now the Fed wants the extra money back. But these New York lawmakers want to hang on to the money to pay out claims for respiratory illnesses suffered by the police, firemen, and construction workers. Now I'm sure they have a valid need for that money, but you should ask congress to appropriate more spending for that purpose. They gave you the money to spend for a reason, and that's what you should have spent it on. If you didn't need it all for that purpose, send it back. You can't just hang on to money that's not yours until you work out a deal to keep it. We went through this same crap back in 2000 over the so-called budget surplus. It was actually a projected surplus over 10 years, meaning there never was a surplus, but I'm not here to split hairs. Anyway, rather than give it back in a tax cut, the Democrats wanted to spend it to solve the social security crisis, which according to them today, doesn't exist. But now I'm going off topic. The theme here is that Democrats don't understand how to keep the books. If you go over, you can't just take that money and use it on something else.

Pro Ana

The internet is full of some pretty twisted things, but this takes the freaking cake. There's a growing community of people finding support in an underground movement that promotes anorexia. They call her Ana, and she is the subject of prayers, poetry, and even an anorexic creed. When I read the AP story, I decided to visit some of these sites. Oddly enough, none of them feature pictorials of people who have successfully reached their target weight with Ana's help. I think that's because most of them are dead. These websites strongly discourage any comments criticizing Ana and their chosen lifestyle. Below are some links. I want these webmasters inundated with mail. It's the most appropriate thing for them, absent a firing squad.

Ana's Underground Grotto

Now these sites are just the tip of the iceberg. Please give them a piece of your mind.
