GravatarHello from Bethlehem Pa.


Gravatarfiery wreck--whackky and smakkcy


Gravatarhbk--someone during the post-sox victory discussion said you were not nice to them once because they were a red sox fan.
hard to believe.


GravatarJust saw a McBombBomb ad on TBS.
All lies.


GravatarThank Jeebus!
.


GravatarWill Tina wink at me, tonight?

Gravatardammit, and of course i just left some good jeebus pr0n downstairs...so how was Bruuuuuuce?


Gravatarthey also count me as a red sox fan because, though I root for the Yankees, at this point of the season my philosphy is: good enough to beat the yankees; good enough to beat anybody.

so I even have a red sox hat due to the recent and prolonged post-season decline of the pinstripers.


Gravatarpeterboy I might have said something untoward to a Red Sox fan at some point in some heated discussion.

Whatta ya want?

I'm from Brooklyn.


GravatarIf you ever hear this, RUN!

GravatarIt was a beautiful fall day in Chicago today. Went to the farmers market at 7:00 and bought eggplant, apples, cider, and tomatos. Mowed the lawn and now will be going to a dinner party to celebrate a close friends 50th birthday.

I am blessed.

Election Night is going to lead to a lot of troll heads going into a lot of ovens.


Personally, I wonder where the PUMA heads (not to mention the general Obama is "unelectable" crowd) will be heading after the election.


GravatarHuloooooooo! From youknowhwere!


GravatarIt sounds like a car alarm from the 17th century.


GravatarPersonally, I wonder where the PUMA heads (not to mention the general Obama is "unelectable" crowd) will be heading after the election.

If I were guess, I'd say they'd side with whomever won the Fundie v Fiscal knifefight the GOP will be in after November.


GravatarI actually saw a McCain bumpersticker in Track Town USA today. First one I've seen.

Have yet to see a McCain yard sign.


GravatarSo, where are the Bruuuuuuce photos, hmmmm?


GravatarPumas will open Hillary Nunneries and devote their lives to chanting obscenities regarding Barack Obama.


GravatarRemember that heat wave we were having in SoCal?

No sign of it anywhere.  It's rainy and cold.


GravatarWhat a piece of shit...from c&l

"Back in 2000, when Hank Paulson was CEO of Goldman Sachs, he testified in front of the Security and Exchange Commission. Among other things, he lobbied the SEC to enact a “change to self-regulation” for Wall Street. He also urged them to change the “net capital rule” which governed the amount of leverage investment banks could use. The net capital rule was indeed changed in 2004, and is now blamed for the investment banks’ collapse.

…Who murdered the American economy? It was the CEO, in the 13th Floor Conference Room, with the Prepared Testimony."

GravatarAnd the lies keep coming.......

Cheney: Wildlife Conservation Has Been A ‘High Priority’ Of Bush Administration
Yesterday, Vice President Cheney spoke at the White House Conference on North American Wildlife Policy in Reno, NV, claiming that the Bush administration has championed wildlife preservation:

"As all of you know very well, President Bush made wildlife conservation an early and a high priority of his administration. We’ve carried out that commitment in these eight years — and we’ve been proud to have people like you as partners in the enterprise.

The men and women in this room understand what conservation is all about. It means reverence toward creation, and a commitment to faithful stewardship. It means guarding our spectacular wildlife populations — not just for our own time, but for all time."

Don't kid yourself. Even then the rubes will think it's all Clinton's/Carter's/FDR's fault.

It's like arguing with doctrinaire Communists. You can rail all you like about Stalin and Mao, and they simply reply, "Those guys weren't real Communists." When pressed, they will say that there have never been real Communists in charge of a country, and therefore, no one knows that it fails.

The doctrinaire wingnuts will never, ever, ever admit that The Decider or the holy doctrine of Milton Friedman or the invisible hand of Adam Smith could ever have been wrong. Something else failed, but not their sainted ideology.


GravatarRainy in Oregon earlier; blustery, sunny and clear now.

Down here in Track Town it's been rain for 15 minutes, sun comes out for 15, then back to rain.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Typical Oregon fall weather.


GravatarThink I shall make some green tomato/tomatilla salsa this week - since my tomatos all got frosted last night.

GravatarThe wind and rain freshened the air nicely.


GravatarI see that John McCain intends to go negative on Barack Obama. Do you think he will spread rumors that Barack has a white child?


GravatarJeffraham, she and he have a lot to work through.  But I think they'll be all right. 

I'm actually catching up on work, which, compared to the activities of the prior week, is remarkably relaxing.


GravatarThink I shall make some green tomato/tomatilla salsa this week - since my tomatos all got frosted last night.


Aw yeah, babe!!!!

Ever do the sweet pickled green 'maters?


GravatarThe doctrinaire wingnuts will never, ever, ever admit that The Decider or the holy doctrine of Milton Friedman or the invisible hand of Adam Smith could ever have been wrong. Something else failed, but not their sainted ideology.

Docrinaire wingnuts only know about the "invisible hand" but absolutely none of the predicates for it because they've never actually read Adam Smith.

They only know what wingtard propagandists have presented them with.

Adam Smith would dismiss Paulson as part of the problem, not part of the solution.

We got piddled on up here in the wee smalls last night. Just enough moisture to make a 40 minute walk this afternoon sticky with humidity.


GravatarDon't kid yourself. Even then the rubes will think it's all Clinton's/Carter's/FDR's fault.

joe whateverhisnamewas, the right wing radio host on larry king's panel, said the whole thing is the fault of clinton and the 110th congress.

everything in between was done right.


GravatarIt should be noted that Todd Beeton says it is starting to rain at the Los Angeles Palin rally.

Get it? It is raining IN LA on the Palin rally? Why does the FSM hate Sarah Palin?


GravatarEver do the sweet pickled green 'maters?


No, but a friend's wife does that. I'm not all that fond of them actually.


GravatarIt's a sign Gawd does not like Sarah.

Well, they got the blossoms beat off of them 2-3 times in the rains this early summer - so I gotta do something with them.

And, I love green salsas.

... and that unpleasantness in 1928, it was a perfectly natural market correction....

I wish I'd gotten the name of the Republican, think he was from Mich. who was saying pretty much stuff like that last Monday. It was like he was the last Hoover true believer, you could see the embalming fluid trickling out of his ear.


GravatarBD,

No frost over here.

Sorry to hear it.

The Lake keeps us a bit warmer I guess.


GravatarMister X, it's really cold here.  It's like 59 F.  For someone in SoCal, this is freezing.


GravatarI love green salsas, too.


GravatarDD, that's exactly how the republics roll.

Having checked out the blog posts of a certain former Atriot turned PUMA, one is struck by the fact that they are everything that people have accused Obama supporters of.

Clinton is literally the messiah. Nothing else matters but eventually making her president (our former friend described herself as a "one issue voter"). If that means mining wingnut sources for Obama smears, so be it.


GravatarThe angels are pissing on Palin.


GravatarClinton is literally the messiah.

but it's ok to ignore her when she says it would be a mistake not to vote for obama.

He's really the benchmark for batshit insane. If our former Atriot starts in on the Ayers bullshit, you'll know she's fucking lost it for good.


GravatarSee, If Claire McCaskill ran or was tapped for VP, I'd vote for her in a heartbeat. I just don't understand why it ONLY can be Hillary.

Sallyh, Grandmere Poissonniere


I am doing much better. On the road to recovery really. I am actually eating one small meal a day and it tastes pretty good so I am satisfied. The doctors tell me that three causes conspired to give me this condition: the drugs that I am taking to control the pain, the inactivity that was forced upon me by the new condition of sciatica and the third condition being the surgical hernia making my digestive tract less efficient.

They are treating what they can and it seems to be working.

But my problems seems minor compared to yours. I hope the police have done what they are supposed to do and your daughter and her child are SAFE and on their way to happiness and your family is aiming toward a contented peace as well. With all of my heart.

GravatarSadly, there are real PUMAs.


If they vote for McSpain, they're republics.


GravatarWell, to be fair, anyone who supported her (like myself)was usually considered to be "stupid," "deluded," "delusional," and a "dead ender." Frankly, if Obama loses this thing, a LOT of you good people will have made my back alley shit list. But that won't happen, so, no hard feelings.


GravatarIf they vote for McSpain, they're republics.

Yep. And stay the fuck out of my way.

GravatarDWD, we're just taking it one step at a time.  The detectives have the case.  Baby is still with the ex, but Mlle is going to court Monday to get restraining orders and to request that the grandparents have guardianship of Maddy.


GravatarThat "I'm a single issue voter" line from s in mich really rubs me the wrong way.

Hillary Clinton is a person, not an issue! I'd have a lot more respect if it was in fact, about a particular issue.

Thank you for allowing me to point out the obvious. Not sure why it irritates me so much.


GravatarWell, this has been fun but I have like workie type stuff to do and I had better get to it. Later you crazy kids ya,

Gravatar"It behooves me upon this historical moment to dedicate the Stinking Desert Historical Indian Monument and Cobalt Testing Range"


GravatarHi, I just want to let you al know that there is a very crazy woman named Kelley Wolcott who has been stalking me for years. Supposedly, she thought I was creepy about 9 years ago, so she's decided that she is going to watch my computer use with spyware and tell I everyone I meet that I am a stalker for the rest of my life. I had a dream of becoming a liberal activist lawyer, and even though I overcame a tough background of being a delinquent in high school, she is apparently mad at me for turning out to be a good kid or something, so no matter what school I go to, from college to law school, she finds my professors and all my fellow students and tells them this bullshit story about me and gives them all spyware to watch my computer with. Even if I play a video game on my computer, she watches me play the whole game, and if it's a high-tech game, this means the game plays slow and choppy, which makes it almost unplayable. As a result of this woman's nutty obsession, I haven't had any friends in a long time and I haven't been on a date in years. In addition to that, neither I nor my brother (also a lawyer) can find a job as a lawyer in New Jersey or New York, even though we've both been searching for over a year. My family is not a rich family, so when we run out of money, we're going to lose everything we have. I can't pay off my law-school debts. The only small respite for me would be able to play a video game alone in my house, but I can't even play the video game I spent $20 I don't have to play the normal way because of how nutty she is. My life is ruined now because of this person. She is very adroit and charasmatic, and also very dishonest, and she quickly wins people over with her story. Anyone who would have the same interests around here and be the type of person I would want to get to know around my age is likely to be someone she's spread her rumor to. What's worse, she and her friends follow me around on the blogs and pick fights with me and make hyserical arguments against my opinions. I don't even want to go on the blogs anymore because of her, even though I was a poli sci major, and thinking and talking about politics is one thing I most like to do. Watch out for this person, because she is a bad friend to have and most likely will cause some kind of problems in your life, because although she does a lot to cultivate friends, she's got to be the most narcissistic person alive and will never really give a shit about you. Due to what she did, I've got far less than nothing now, no way to make enough money to pay my debts, my family (including my diabled mother) is on its way to the poor house, I have no friends and not even the dignity of privacy or a good reputation. If I could sue this person I would, but all the people involved know that it's a crime in NJ to spyware someone else's computer illegal, so they're all trying to cover their own asses.


GravatarWhat was the deal with not mentioning that it was madamab that was the puma?

Did I miss something?

What was really sick was that they gave him 24 hours to take the drug test, and he showed them one bottle of pain pills that was nearly empty.  The male investigator was satisfied.

As you said, the legal system is frustrating, but it's all we've got.


GravatarOh, racism is a deeply seated and viciously held prejudice. Honestly, there are people who simply will not vote for Obama because he is black. That is their loss and really not my concern.

What is problematic is that they seem to want to invent rationalizations for their prejudice and that is stupid. Admit it once and for all and be done with it: I ain't votin' for the black guy. You really don't need a reason, it is a free country and you can vote for whomever you like. Or not vote for whomever you like.

But please don't expect ME to participate in the lies you fabricate to justify your pettiness.


GravatarHOW CAN PEOPLE SUPPORT this gibberish? - pigboy

It makes perfect sense to them, and besides, she says she's a Republican.


GravatarNo, the judge has ruled and given Bronstein custody -- so from whence comes the certainty Stone is blameless? Her "Earthquake in China was Karma": remark certainly wasn't terribly well thought out.


Gravatar
I knew madamab was pissed about the Hillary thing but is someone saying she's a Republic?


In a response to someone's comment on her blog a few weeks ago, she suggested that she might vote for McCain if the election looks like it might be close in her state.

She seems to have backed off that position more recently, however.

That hasn't stopped her from being a big Sarah Palin fan in the meantime, though.


GravatarI'm still convinced some of them are Turing tests.

This one reminds me a lot of my experiments with an online version of "Eliza". Lots of fun as long as you don't take it seriously.

IIRC, that's pretty true under the Uniform Family Code (or whatever that thing is most states adopted decades back; it's been a while for me). I do hope you can go to court and assert a claim, though. That should be possible; it certainly seems necessary, if only to get custody from the father.


GravatarHOW CAN PEOPLE SUPPORT this gibberish?

Eggg-zackly.

How can people in the media like, oh, say, Christiane Amanpour last night on Maher's show, defend her?

Of course I know when Sean Hannity and those idiots 'support' this gibberish. They're supporting the establishment. The GOP signs their paycheck. But come on -- people who are supposed to be smart and impartial ...

Yeeesh. Forget it.


GravatarMlle recognizes that, and in her restraining order hearing, she is going to ask that the baby be removed to be with us.

Honest to God, I'm sorry to hear that...


GravatarThat hasn't stopped her from being a big Sarah Palin fan in the meantime, though.

From the recent Time poll:

Non-college-educated white women split virtually evenly, 46%-45% for McCain. By contrast, Obama remains weak among white men. That group supports McCain 57%-36% overall, and non-college-educated white men back the Republican ticket by an even greater margin, 63%-27%.


GravatarAfter all, Bill was the greatest Republican president since Lincoln.


That's complete bullshit and you know it.


GravatarDolly Parton endorses Sarah Palin?

Dolly Parton, our favorite Sevier County songbird, tells entertainment news program "Extra" that she can identify with GOP vice presidental candidate Tina Fey Sarah Palin! "I always say we're very much alike," says the normally bipartisan Parton.

Parton goes on to tell "Extra": "(We're) both small town girls, both a Pentecostalism and we both carry an AK-47." More from Terry Morrow.

GravatarSpeaking of rigging the election, there's a disturbing bit in the Wikipedia article about the Bradley effect:

Still other sources point out that Obama's performance in precincts using hand-count vote tabulation was precisely in line with exit polling data, and that the dissonance occurred only in districts using easily-compromised Diebold (now Premier Election Solutions) optical scanners, suggesting that fraud rather than any voter bias might be at fault.

GravatarFrom the department of 'keeping my finger on the pulse', I was talking to a couple ladies yesterday about the debate. I asked what they thought. They both were nervous for Palin and said she did very well. One is a democrat and I asked her about Obama. You know what she said? She said she hates to use the word, and whispered "socialism" and said that is what she is afraid of. She fears he would try to give everything away. Yeah, me too. And I bet many others are afraid to admit that they are afraid of this unknown 'Messiah' character.

Well, that's all i wanted to point out to keep a little perspective on the discussion. You might need the perspective it looks like to me.

I think people are sick of the Clintons AND the Bushes.

But Sarah Palin has her eyes on 2012, don't think she doesn't. Clueless social conservatives think she's the great white girlie hope for them.

GOP dread: Dems could hit 60 Senate seats

By GottaLaff

Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease:


The possibility that Democrats will build a muscular, 60-seat Senate majority is looking increasing plausible, with new polls showing a powerful surge for the party’s candidates in Minnesota, Kentucky and other states.

A poll out Friday shows Sen. Norm Coleman could now easily lose his Minnesota seat to comedian-turned-candidate Al Franken. A Colorado race that initially looked like a nail-biter has now broken decisively for the Democrats. A top official in the McCain camp told us Sen. Elizabeth Dole is virtually certain to lose in conservative North Carolina.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has seen his race tighten dangerously close over the past week — and Democrats are considering moving more money into the state very soon. And there is even talk that Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss is beatable in conservative Georgia after backing the economic bailout package opposed by many voters."

http://thepoliticalcarnival.blog...-60- senate.html


GravatarEconomic growth is no substitute for wisdom.
I would think you would have learned that from us.


GravatarChina limits her own markets by being untrustworthy on food safety. China is the greatest polluter in the world, making a toxic soup of the environment.

The US has never shown to have food safety problems. Please?

The US is a much greater polluter than China.

GravatarI teach 2nd grade. I always tell my kids that Sarah Palin is a monster.


Gravatari was talking to a couple of people at the debate. they were worried about palin, and it turns out all their fears were justified. one of them was a republican, so i asked him about mccain. he said he hated to use the words "perpetual war and economic disaster" but that's what he is afraid of. smoking ruins of a bankrupt world. i bet many others are afraid to admit that they are afraid of this "maverick" and his airheaded sidekick.

well, that's all i wanted to point out.


GravatarYou don't even want to think about where he put that finger to get those pulses. Just leave it as a police matter.


GravatarDems could hit 60 Senate seats

I hope that is without Lieberman. i so want him to be booted out like the Monopoly plutocrat he is.


GravatarHey, remember that notorious Middle Eastern terrorist, the one that killed all those British soldiers a while back? You know, the one that was a bigwig in that terrorist group in the Palestine area. The notorious Middle Eastern terrorist that was SUCH a big friend of Ronald Reagan, that Reagan had him as a guest in the White House and Oval Office on several occasions.

What was his name? Oh, right! Menachem Begin!

Um, HOW many people did Ayers kill, again?


GravatarMrs. Miller, I teach college kids.  I don't have to reveal my politics.  I think my assignments reveal them nicely.


GravatarThe culture is simultaneously very different. Their economies are similar, but the rates of growth make

GravatarNeeds to be repeated.

Oh, racism is a deeply seated and viciously held prejudice. Honestly, there are people who simply will not vote for Obama because he is black. That is their loss and really not my concern.

What is problematic is that they seem to want to invent rationalizations for their prejudice and that is stupid. Admit it once and for all and be done with it: I ain't votin' for the black guy. You really don't need a reason, it is a free country and you can vote for whomever you like. Or not vote for whomever you like.

GravatarWith regards to Europe, the sad thing is, financially speaking, they are clearly just as moronic and corrupt as we are.

However, the euro is now significantly lower now than when the bailout talk started. It's currently at $1.37 .

That's because the last half dozen or so very large banks that have gotten into trouble are all in Europe.

One just went belly up today, after a $50 billion bailout plan failed.

One lesson of this crisis seems to be that greed makes you stupid, regardless of nationality.

What attacks? I thought Bill was a good President and could have been a great one if he had not allowed the little head do some of the thinking. By not being in control, he allowed four years of distraction and likely cost Gore the presidency.

GravatarSarah Palin, Recreational Liar:

Record Refutes Palin's Sudan Claim
Palin Administration Against Sudan Divestment Before It Was For It, Documents Show

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin fought to protest atrocities in Sudan by dropping assets tied to the country's brutal regime from the state's multi-billion-dollar investment fund, she claimed during Thursday's vice presidential debate.

Not quite, according to a review of the public record  and according to the recollections of a legislator and others who pushed a measure to divest Alaskan holdings in Sudan-linked investments.

"The [Palin] administration killed our bill," said Alaska state representative Les Gara, D-Anchorage. Gara and state Rep. Bob Lynn, R-Anchorage, co-sponsored a resolution early this year to force the Alaska Permanent Fund  a $40 billion investment fund, a portion of whose dividends are distributed annually to state residents  to divest millions of dollars in holdings tied to the Sudanese government.

In Thursday's debate, Palin said she had advocated the state divest from Sudan. "When I and others in the legislature found out that we had some millions of dollars [of Permanent Fund investments] in Sudan, we called for divestment through legislation of those dollars," Palin said.

But a search of news clips and transcripts from the first three months of this year did not turn up an instance in which Palin mentioned the Sudanese crisis or concerns about Alaska's investments tied to the ruling regime. Moreover, Palin's administration openly opposed the bill, and stated its opposition in a public hearing on the measure.

Is there anything this woman tells the truth about?

The serial lying about things that are so easily proven false, good god, it's like she's mentally ill.

GravatarWhat problems can China not solve.
Economic grow at greater than 10% for 15 years will solve most of them.
chairman mao

you know, i'm a big 'ware the sleeping dragon' type and i believe in the way in which other nations, even nations without white people, are flashing past the US in terms of development and technology. but even i don't think "china is on the verge of taking over the world."
let's review:

oil: without it, much of the chinese economy crashes. no one, including china, "wins" from a thermonuclear exchange over iranian supply. china isn't exactly rushing to retool to a petro-free economy, either.
coal: not a technology that the future is built upon, long term. and yet, how much do the chinese seem to love it? see: far too many new energy plants being brought online just now in china.
paper: the official chinese banking community is holding, what? how much toxic US based paper value, and also questionable bond paper, right now? because yeah, like the stuff our treasury just bought, US paper is "bound to go up in value, sooner or later." or not.
food: as bad as we're doing, it's not like the chinese are doing "better" when it comes to 'local, sustainable' sources of food production. and hey: they have a lot more people than we do. one environmental ag-energy speculator's crash of note and whoops! uncontrollable riots all over the country...
environment: speaking of resource mismanagment, who here thinks the chinese are doing a better job than the US when it comes to preservation and long term managment of environmental resourses? we suck, but at the very least so do they. and again with the 'delicate balance' stuff. it seems much, much easier to offset the chinese, compared to the US, when it comes to making the native environment work/not work in a post-petrol reality. again with the population problem.

political oppression: yo, there's a price to be paid for killing off your most creative, analytical, risk taking class, when they're young and haven't yet contributed to the national economy. you're not just killing punk musicians over there, you know? "free thinking" is good for every industry, and when it doesn't happen, other nations blow by you in development.


i don't mean to sound racist or malthusian. i just think that as a managment problem, i'd rather be a Master of the Universe in n.america, than eastern asia. editied for haloscum.

Maybe not necessarily second grade, but consider that nobody getting abstinance education is being told "you don't need to worry about any of this, you don't need to do any of this any time soon, you can get yourself off perfectly well without a guy so it's worth making sure the guy is good for other reasons."

GravatarVancouver, very high rates of immigration, I don't know if it's over 50 percent, but there is a very large Asian population.

I think Vancouver has the largest Chinese population outside of the East. It surprises a great many Americans that it is far larger than in San Francisco.

But we have a lot more Koreans and Ethiopians and Eritreans, at least in the Seattle area, than in Vancouver.

I love Vancouver because in a way it's like Seattle but more so, and the ways in which it isn't like Seattle are very appealing.

GravatarI always loved this Al Franken bit from SNL...

http://snltranscripts.jt.org/79/ ...79fupdate.phtml

Jane Curtin: Well, the 1970's are in their final month, and with some thoughts on this decade and the one we're about to enter, here's Weekend Update's Social Sciences Editor Al Franken.

Al Franken: Thank you, Jane. Well, the "me" decade is almost over, and good riddance, and far as I'm concerned. The 70's were simply 10 years of people thinking of nothing but themselves. No wonder we were unable to get together and solve any of the many serious problems facing our nation. Oh sure, some people did do some positive things in the 70's - like jogging - but always for the wrong reasons, for their own selfish, personal benefit. Well, I believe the 80's are gonna have to be different. I think that people are going to stop thinking about themselves, and start thinking about me, Al Franken. That's right. I believe we're entering what I like to call the Al Franken Decade. Oh, for me, Al Franken, the 80's will be pretty much the same as the 70's. I'll still be thinking of me, Al Franken. But for you, you'll be thinking more about how things affect me, Al Franken. When you see a news report, you'll be thinking, "I wonder what Al Franken thinks about this thing?", "I wonder how this inflation thing is hurting Al Franken?" And you women will be thinking, "What can I wear that will please Al Franken?", or "What can I not wear?" You know, I know a lot of you out there are thinking, "Why Al Franken?" Well, because I thought of it, and I'm on TV, so I've already gotten the jump on you. So, I say let's leave behind the fragmented, selfish 70's, and go into the 80's with a unity and purpose. That's what I think. I'm Al Franken. Jane?


Gravatargot any negra modelo?

No but they do. The restaurant I mean.

Have some wine?

Hrm. What wine goes with chips and salsa?


Gravatar Chris saw your note above, thanks!


GravatarIn a departure from previous elections, Democrats and liberal Catholic groups are waging a fight within the church, arguing that the Democratic Party better reflects the full spectrum of church teachings.

It is a contest for credibility among observant Catholics, with each faction describing itself as a defender of “life.” The two sides disagree over how to address the “intrinsic evil” of abortion.

The escalating efforts by more-liberal Catholics are provoking a vigorous backlash from some bishops and the right.

In Scranton, Pa., every Catholic attending Mass this weekend will hear a special homily about the election next month: Bishop Joseph Martino has ordered every priest in the diocese to read a letter warning that voting for a supporter of abortion rights amounts to endorsing “homicide.”

“Being ‘right’ on taxes, education, health care, immigration and the economy fails to make up for the error of disregarding the value of a human life,” the bishop wrote. “It is a tragic irony that ‘pro-choice’ candidates have come to support homicide — the gravest injustice a society can tolerate — in the name of ‘social justice.’ ”


Be sure to tell them in that letter that your view is that using contraceptives is a mortal sin too, you POS fascist.


GravatarOooh, look what's out on Tuesday!

GravatarGood one from Conason:

Why should we pretend not to notice when Gov. Palin's ideas make no sense?... Why should we ignore her inability to string together a series of coherent thoughts?... Why should we give her a pass on the most important issues of the day?... All the glaring defects so blatantly on display in her debate with Joe Biden -- and that make her candidacy so darkly comical -- would be the same if she were a hockey dad instead of a "hockey mom." In fact, the cynical attempt to foist Palin on the nation as a symbol of feminist progress is an insult to all women regardless of their political orientation.

There was a time when conservatives lamented the dumbing down of American culture. Preservation of basic standards in schools and workplaces compelled them -- or so they said -- to resist affirmative action for women and minorities. Qualifications mattered; merit mattered; and demagogic appeals for leveling were to be left to the Democrats.

Not anymore.
