Still smarting from the fact that pretty much everyone in the GOP was more relieved than sad when Crazy-as-a-bat Uncle Arlen finally left, he decided to blame the death of Jack Kemp (who he share almost no positions with in policy) on the GOP approach to health care:

"Well, I was sorry to disappoint many people. Frankly, I was disappointed that the Republican Party didn't want me as their candidate," Mr. Specter said on "Face the Nation." "But as a matter of principle, I'm becoming much more comfortable with the Democrats' approach. And one of the items that I'm working on, Bob, is funding for medical research."

Mr. Specter continued: "If we had pursued what President Nixon declared in 1970 as the war on cancer, we would have cured many strains. I think Jack Kemp would be alive today. And that research has saved or prolonged many lives, including mine."

Ok Senator Genius if that research saved your Dr. Evil-like baldie a couple of years ago, don't you think the doctors working on Kemp likely attempted similar treatments?

While the break through on many types of cancers are seeing tremendous response to new therapies not ALL cancers respond the same way.

The Lovely Bride's mother as well as my own were both born in 1947. They both died of breast cancer that metastisized to other organs. My mother perished when I was 17 and fought it for a little more than two years. The Lovely Bride's passed away when she (TLB) was 25 and her mother fought it for nearly 10. And the Lovely Bride is 10 years younger than me.

Specter's statement is stupid, tasteless, and completely imaginary.

What a MASSIVE numbskull!

A great line from the movie Hoosiers, roughly paraphrased goes a lil somethin' like this:

"There's two kinds of stupid in this world. The kind where a person takes off all their clothes and barks at the moon in the middle of the woods. And another who does the same thing in your living room. You're not really forced to deal with one, but the other sort of requires your attention."

Well boys and girls GUESS WHICH KIND OF STUPID Janet Napolitano is?

Even after the "civil rights" resources within Department of Homeland Security told her it'd be a less than wise thing to release her assessment slandering most patriotic Americans as potential terrorists... naked moon barker released it anyway.

Parting question... "Who's dumber, the naked moon barker, or the dummy who hires the naked moon barker?"

Sort of makes her non-apology even more pathetic don't ya think?

Fire Napolitano Now Mr. President!

Ok Drudge just slapped up a leak from tomorrow's NY Times. He's reporting that President Everywhere is going to call for increased federal regulation for all banking system, Wall Street, and other corporate firms...

Just remember that it was his cronies that fought to include the AIG bonuses, that his Fed guy knew about them on March 3rd and said nothing, and that even he himself knew about the inclusion of the bonus loophole but said nothing.

And we're supposed to think that this bunch of crooked-keystone-cops will oversee Wall Street exec pay honestly?

Does anyone smell a few shakedowns a la Jesse Jackson in the near future?

Perhaps to ACORN?

Tell me why we should NOT have literacy tests in order to be able to vote. Please explain to me why having media-brainwashed-numbbots walk into a booth and pull a lever because of the mindless, godless, soulless, precinct captains told them to helps America.

I recognize that in the era of Reconstruction, literacy tests were used to exclude the votes of those who may have had a genuine right, interest, and engagement in the voting process. But how is it any different to cancel out the informed votes of people who actually have some modicum of knowledge about what it is they are casting a vote for?

Oh, are we voting for rainbow-excreting-flying-unicorns? Where do I register...

Senator Joe Biden has always been one to sort of step in it. It seems he can't help himself. So of course everyone in the world believes its just one of those "Jo-isms" when he makes statements like he did this morning claiming that paying higher taxes is a patriotic duty. (See the idiot on tape here. Click here.)

HUH?

Patriotic if in the sense of "Yes Comrade, all for the love of the Motherland!" (Idiot, tape, click)

But we in America, have ALWAYS known that higher taxes were immoral. The tax rate in this nation punishes you for success and rewards you for indifference. I spent a whole chapter in my first book examining this through the raw naked judgment of common sense.

But here's the thing about Joe, Barack, and every single one of the other "patriotic" tax-raising hounds. (It's how they really think...)

They don't believe that Americans are generous or that we will respond to the needs of our fellow man. They believe you must be FORCED to do it at threat of imprisonment and that only they - the all knowing liberal progressive, society re-engineering, leftists that they are - are qualified to say how to help.

What they fail to grasp is that the average family in America, scraping by on a salary of $50,000 for a family of four still gives in excess of $5000 to charity per year.

It is usually LIBERALS who do not give voluntarily, and if their mindset is, "I've already done my part by paying my taxes" then you can see why. But they are either dishonest or ignorant of America's MOST generous class of charitable providers - the working men and women of the United States.

Nope... it's not an April fools joke...

They want to BAN murder. OMG(osh) what's next? Sumpin' crazy like outlawing rape? Or a study outlining the roots and cause of symbolic liberalism and what happens to a sinking world when it takes over?
