Top Ten Conservative Idiots of the Week #38


[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Give Me That Old Time Religion Edition[/font]

Fundies dominate the Top Ten this week. From a murderer (1), to his supporter (2); Pogrom lovers (3) and Christain Fundies in Oklahoma (8), this week is proof that religion has become one of the most insidious mass brainwashing on Earth today. Even North Korea (10) has its religion and God, an ugly, fat sociopath with a lousy haircut. And as always, don't forget the key. At the end, the writer will speak briefly on the passing of Rubin “Hurricane” Carter.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Frazier Glenn Miller[/font]

It happened. Jewish organizations in Kansas City went on alert last week as some nut decided to act out his manhood fantasy and attack and kill Jewish people in the name of some paranoid conspiracy theory. And in time for Passover too. So, security went up big time at Jewish organizations around KCMO and the openness and charity of Passover got killed as well. Way to go, Fraizer Glenn Miller. . .you did what Pharaoh couldn't do.

Miller, a known anti-Semite and a right wing political fundamentalist, decided to extend his ¼ inch killer, lift up a gun and went on a murder spree. This has been building for some time now. Honestly with all the tea party paranoia, the Bundy Ranch clowns, Alex Jones conspiracy nuts and Sean Hannity purposely stirring the shit, someone was eventually going to get killed.

Miller has had a long history of this crap. Let's look at something pricko wrote about Jews.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]After subsequently forming another Klan group, the White Patriot Party, he was found in criminal contempt and sentenced to six months in prison for violating the court settlement. He went underground while his conviction was under appeal but was caught by the FBI with a weapons cache in Missouri. He served three years in federal prison after being indicted on weapons charges and for plotting robberies and the assassination of SPLC founder Morris Dees. As part of a plea bargain, Miller testified against other Klan leaders in a 1988 sedition trial.

Miller is a raging anti-Semite who has posted more than 12,000 times on Vanguard News Network (VNN), whose slogan is “No Jews, Just Right.” VNN founder Alex Linder has openly advocated “exterminating” Jews since December 2009. Miller, a close partner to Linder, has called Jews “swarthy, hairy, bow-legged, beady-eyed, parasitic midgets.” Miller is also one of VNN’s largest donors and he printed and distributed thousands of copies of VNN’s newsletter, The Aryan Alternative.

So, he posts on a nice little website that is Stormfront and National Alliance combined. And apparently, posters at the this website have had legal problems in the past.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]This isn’t the first time a VNN user has been arrested for violence. On January 17, 2011, less than 12 hours after posting on VNN, Kevin William Harpham placed an improvised explosive device concealed in a backpack along a Martin Luther King parade route in Spokane Washington. The lead sinkers in the radio-detonated IED were coated with Warfarin rat poison, evidently intended to increase bleeding. Had the device functioned, dozens of men, women and children would have been killed or injured. Harpham also distributed The Aryan Alternative.

Nice group of people. Just a wonder, let's have Sunday dinner group of troglodytes that website attracts.

Before the Top Ten puts Miller into the dustbin of history, let's look at the actions of this asshole after he was arrested.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]he video, which was taken by Kansas City news station KMBC, shows the suspected gunman after he was taken into custody in the parking lot of an elementary school near the scene of the attacks at the Jewish Community Center and the Village Shalom assisted living center.

From the back of the police cruiser, Cross shouted what sounded like "Heil Hitler!"

Enjoy Hell, douchebag. At least you have no allies or friends that can back you up and support you or your views. No one is that openly ignorant in America. . .


[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Dan Clevenger[/font]

Well, maybe the Top Ten spoke too soon. Meet Dan Clevenger, mayor or Marionville, Missouri and open Frazier Glenn Miller supporter. That needs to be repeated. Dan Clevenger, an elected official that goes relies on votes to get and keep his job, supports a murdering anti-Semitic bigot.

While you pick up your bottom jaw from the ground, let's look at some of this moron's bullcrap.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]In an interview with KSPR, Clevenger said Cross -- who also goes by the name Frazier Glenn Miller -- was "[v]ery fair and honest and never had a bit of problems out of him."

"He was always nice and friendly and respectful of elder people, you know, he respected his elders greatly. As long as they were the same color as him," Clevenger said.

"Kind of agreed with him on some things but, I don't like to express that too much," Clevenger told KSPR.

I'm sure Miller loves his mother and his dog too. I'm also sure he loves apple pie too. Doesn't change the fact that he killed people due to racial and religious intolerance. And the fact that you stated you “kind of agreed with him on some things” shows that you are unfit to run to be an elected speed bump and that fact you continued by saying “I don't like to express that too much” shows you are a weak, wimpy, closeted bigot who doesn't even have the courage of their own conviction. You need to write a resignation later as soon as possible.

In the past, Clevenger was more in your face with his racism. I guess being mayor means you need to hide it more.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Nearly a decade ago, Clevenger wrote a letter to the editor of the Aurora Advertiser.

"I am a friend of Frazier Miller helping to spread his warnings," wrote Clevenger. "The Jew-run medical industry has succeeded in destroying the United State's workforce."

The letter continued.

"Made a few Jews rich by killin' us off."

He also spoke of the "Jew-run government backed banking industry turned the U.S into the world's largest debtor nation."

Now that you have that resignation letter written, Danny. . .sign it, effective immediately and then disappear from public life forever. However, it appears Clevenger is in hot water and may be removed from office. Because nothing screams “come to our town and spend money here” more than a Nazi loving mayor.


[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Russian Pogrom Advocates[/font]

Frazier Miller has more allies. All he has to do is go to that Godless, former communist country of Russia and enjoy life there. See, the Russians, under Vladimir Putin (Conservative from Hell), have decided to attempt a annex of parts of Ukraine, and threaten anyone that wants to help Ukraine keep its borders.

So, in a part of Ukraine that the Russians and Russian supporters have taken over, namely the city of Donetsk , Jews were told they have to "register" with the Ukrainians who are trying to make the city become part of Russia. Yes. . .get your papers, Jews! Get those papers, Jews!

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Jews emerging from a synagogue say they were handed leaflets that ordered the city's Jews to provide a list of property they own and pay a registration fee "or else have their citizenship revoked, face deportation and see their assets confiscated," reported Ynet News, Israel's largest news website.

Wow. This does sound vaguely familiar if one knows history. Listing property and paying a registration fee. . .sounds like Nazi Germany. Revoking citizenship, deportation and asset confiscation. . .this sounds like the Inquisition. Russian anti-semitism has reared its ugly head yet again.

So, Miller would love Russia now. They hate Jews as much as he does. I wonder if Dan Clevenger will stand up and say “kind of agreed with the Russians on some things, but now that it's out in the open, them Jews deserve it.”

Passover 2014 started great for Jews this year.


[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Marsha Blackburn[/font]

Coming back to the United States the Top Ten goes down to the South (oh no, here comes a jury alert because a southerner won't like that the Top Ten is mentioning someone from the south) to bring back a perennial black mark on the United States, Marsha Blackburn.

The Tennessee Twit (no, I used the correct word. There will be no sexism from the writer on the Top Ten) burped out another turd of wisdom last week, this time about her fellow women

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) asserted over the weekend that the Republican Party was the party of "women's equality" days after Senate Republicans blocked the Paycheck Fairness Act.

In a party line Senate vote last week, Republicans refused to allow debate on a bill that would have require employers prove that women were not being discriminated against.

So, the Republicans are the party of women's equality by working to block a fair pay law to allow women the same pay for the same work as men and they are all for woman's equality? On what planet? In what dimension? In what realm of consciousness?

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]CBS host Bob Schieffer on Sunday asked Blackburn if the vote would hurt Republicans with women voters in the midterm elections.

"I find this war on women rhetoric almost silly," Blackburn insisted.

We find your party's chances to keep power in the House after election day almost silly too. How can any woman vote for a party that wants to keep them as second class citizens with second class pay? Oh yeah. . .Stockholm Syndrome. Explains it all.


[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Jeff Sessions[/font] ‘

Going back to the South on the list (oh no, another jury notification coming) brings us to the great state of Alabama and their senior senator, a one named Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, or as the Top Ten will call him from now on. . .Opie Dopey. I mean, look at his photo. Doesn’t it just scream “duh!”

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

So, Opie Dopey is on the Environment and Public Works committee in the Senate, which deals with such things as environment and infrastructure, two things Republicans know shit about and care about even less. The EPW is now looking at Janet McCabe, President Obama’s pick to head the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air and Radiation office. This is not a controversial office and is not really grounds for political grandstanding.

Wait, these are Republicans. Everything is grounds for political grandstanding. When Ms. McCabe was hauled in front of this committee, Jeff Sessions decided to make political hay over climate change. Not this shit again!

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]At a confirmation hearing for Janet McCabe, President Obama’s pick to head the Environmental Protection Agency’s Air and Radiation office, Alabama Republican Senator Jeff Sessions said he could not support her because of her views on climate change.

“If you continue to insist that we’ve had more hurricanes in the last century and that they’ve increased as a result of global warming — climate change — I don’t see how I can support your nomination,” Sessions said.

Listen, asshole. The Great Lakes are still 37% covered with ice. Some places are already experiencing record high temperatures while others are freezing when they shouldn’t. Don’t believe me. . .look at this and [http://www.weather.com/news/winter-ncdc-state-climate-report-2013-2014-20140313|this]. Where did this prick get education? Alabama Univeristy of Dumb? Alabama Jackass University? Dipshit U?

That’s fine. The Top Ten has long denied that Jeff Sessions has a functioning brain.

After the hearing, he jumped in his SUV to go blow the CEO’s of BP while apologizing that the Gulf of Mexico caused them to lose profits. Then he has wild and unwanted sex with a pigmy owl, screaming “screw mother Earth” while the owl laughed at the size of his manhood.

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Tim Scott[/font]

Ugh, back to the South again (southerners on DU must be having seizures now and this should get the Top Ten another jury notice for region bashing). In South Carolina, professional stooge and Dudley Dickerson impersonator “Uncle” Tim Scott has decided to come out of his hidey hole, open his mouth and put an industrial sized foot into it.

Apparently, “Uncle” Tim has decided that he will vote against HHS Secretary nominee Sylvia Matthews Burwell because he hates the ACA.

?

??

???

That’s a bit confusing. Could you explain, Uncly Tim. . .and speak slowly. We need to try to understand this new Republican “logic.”

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Scott said on "Fox News Sunday" that he wouldn't go as far as to vote against Burwell because he does not like the health care law, but he said that senators need to better understand Burwell's loyalties and agenda.

Loyalties. Gotcha! Like the Republican presidential wanna-bes going out to Vegas to kiss the feet and suck the dick of Sheldon Adelson. . .and will probably go out to Kansas to give Charles and David Koch a reach around following by a Koch family circle jerk? Those kind of loyalties?

As for an agenda. . .similar to Paul Ryan’s agenda of fucking the middle class and poor so the wealthy can concentrate more wealth? We are beginning to understand. Please proceed, “Senator.”

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]SCOTT: The questions that we have to get to, however, is whether or not Director Burwell will be serving for the President of the United states, with his agenda as the primary objective, or will she get into the details of the numbers, and she’s honestly strong on the numbers, and figure out whether seven million people actually signed up and paid, or whether, as other independent sources suggest, that we’ve had fewer than 5 million signed up and paid, as well as looking at the fact that when you have 6 million cancellations, and 7 million signed up by the President’s suggestions, that what is the actual number of those who signed up and paid.

Wow, Mr. Run-on Sentence. Those are alot of works. Non-sequitirs and full of sounds and syllables, meaning nothing. But they sound pretty. The Top Ten would normally try to go into what Republicans say, but this is so monumentally stupid that the writer’s brains leaked out of his head while he read this drivel.

So, welcome to the Top Ten, Timmy. . .you prove that anyone can be elected, even a completely brainless, partisan a-hole like you. Nothing like a electing a black man president that turns an entire political party into drooling, raving, ranting maniacs.

BTW, in the comments, please caption this picture. The only one I could come up with was “Who you be talking to, Willis?”

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Bob Marshall[/font]

Back to the South (shit, I’m going to get banned with all these jury alerts) for one last time. Going to the mid-south this time, not the deep south to the state of Virginia. Virginia has become one of the most schizophrenic states when it comes to people running for office. Terry McAlliffe, the “Cooch.” Northern Virginia liberals, southern Virginia conservatives. It really is a purple state. Sadly, their Republicans are a fucking embarrassment.

The newest installment of Republican sleaze is Bob Marshall, who apparently is running for the open seat in CD-10 this year. He is an interesting person. Let’s look at some of his [link:hhttp://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/04/11/va-gop-candidate-no-incest-exception-for-abortion-because-sometimes-its-voluntary/#.U0rP5RtVXZw.facebook|rather insane comments] and his reactions to the fallout.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Bob Marshall, who is running for the seat being vacated by retiring Rep. Frank Wolf (R- VA10), explained in an interview with the Boston Globe in 1989 that he wouldn’t make exceptions for abortions, even in the case of rape and incest, stating: “What if incest is voluntary? Sometimes it is.”

Marshall, a senior Republican member of the Virginia General Assembly, has a history of making colorful statements that may come back to haunt him in the upcoming election, but he insists they are not gaffes.

“I don’t care. I mean, if I say something in public, I say it in public,” Mr. Marshall said Thursday.

Voluntary? Incest? It’s voluntary? “Come on, parent. . .give it to my 12 year old body. I know you want some sugar and I’m ready for you.” I’m sorry, I just threw up a little in my mouth.

I hope it doesn’t get any worse.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Speaking to a pro-life group last year, Marshall discussed Justice Anthony M. Kennedy’s majority opinion in the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on same-sex marriage, adding at the end: “For all I know, Kennedy’s a homosexual.”

“You can’t be doing some of these things without this kind of conclusion,” he added.

Defending his comment, he recently said, “Clearly, some of the people who are making these decisions must be rationalizing their own bad behavior.”

Because anyone that supports equality is a fag, right? You wear your sheets buddy. Rationalize that behavior, you arrogant ass.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]In 2010, Marshall called for an end to state funding for Planned Parenthood, and suggested that women who have abortions are more likely to face “vengeance” from “nature” in the form of children being born with developmental disabilities.

“The number of children who are born subsequent to a first abortion who have handicaps has increased dramatically. Why? Because when you abort the firstborn of any, nature takes its vengeance on the subsequent children,” Marshall said.

Faced with criticism over those remarks, Marshall partially walked back the statement.

“No one who knows me or my record would imagine that I believe or intended to communicate such an offensive notion,” he explained afterward. “I have devoted a generation of work to defending disabled and unwanted children and have always maintained that they are special blessings to their parents.

Abortion causes defects. According to Glenn Beck, it’s HITLER! According to Alex Jones, it’s the spacemen that talk to him through his tin foil hat. And according to Rush Limbaugh, it’s the oxycotin that make his dick limps so liberals want abortions on demand, whatever the fuck that means. Can Bob Marshall get any worse?

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]A staunch opponent of same-sex marriage, he co-sponsored the Marshall-Newman Amendment that voters approved in 2006 banning same-sex marriage in Virginia. A federal judge this year ruled it unconstitutional.

Marshall has repeatedly introduced “personhood” bills to secure civil and legal rights for the unborn from the moment of conception.

So, let’s recap:

01: Stupid
02: Homophobic
03: Misogynistic
04: Anti-choice
05: Anti-child
06: Pro-incest
07: Pro-asshole
08: Arrogant
09: Hubris filled
10: Obtuse

Perfect for the Republican Party to nominate because staunch wing nutters will love him.

You realize this asshole will probably win the nomination and be a representative in Congress because his district has gone to the Republican every election for the last 17 cycles by at least 15%. Maybe the district has changed. . .but what won’t change is this asshole will already have at least 35% of the vote in his pocket. So, those that vote for him support incest. And Republicans, the part of family values, will have no problems with that.

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Oklahoma Government[/font]

The Sooner State has brought us such assholes as James Inhofe, Tom Coburn, Mary Fallin (what a apropos surname), Toby Keith and the country music assholes and countless dipshits in the Oklahoma state legislature.

This week, we look at three pieces of shit that have come out of Oklahoma. First, Governor Mary Failure signed one of the most fuck the poor and the young bills in the history of humanity, then spouted wingnut talking points to defend her shitty decision.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin (R) signed a bill Monday prohibiting cities across the state from establishing mandatory minimum wage and employee benefits, including vacation or sick leave days.

Advocates of the new law contend that efforts to increase the minimum wage across various municipalities could potentially harm local business communities.

"This bill provides a level playing field for all municipalities in Oklahoma," state Rep. Randy Grau (R), a backer of the bill’s House version, said on Monday, according to the Associated Press. "An artificial raise in the minimum wage could derail local economies in a matter of months. This is a fair measure for consumers, workers and small business owners."

Yes, because government needs to be small and let the market decide itself, unless the business interests don’t like it, then it’s big government and time to stick a big dick up the ass of powerless people.

So how did Mary Failure defend this completely and utterly defenseless act? But being a completely obtuse asshat while spouting off talking points like a brain dead parrot.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Fallin defended her support for banning a minimum wage hike as an effort to protect consumers in a press release Monday, noting that "most minimum-wage workers are young, single people working part-time or entry-level jobs."

So, because, using her logic, young, single part time works and entry level jobs don’t deserve to eat AND live in a house? Nice logic (I want to use the b-word, but I don’t want to offend anyone, but it’s getting harder and harder to call people like this the b-word) and completely stupid. Hey, Oklahoma, how does it feel to be one of the most conservative states in the country? Getting tired of being fucked over by Republicans?

Apparently not, because next, Mary Failure decided to sign a law charging fees for installing renewable energy sources on their property. Way to pander to the fossil fuel industry.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]On Monday, S.B. 1456 passed the state House 83-5 after no debate. The measure creates a new class of customers: those who install distributed power generation systems like solar panels or small wind turbines on their property and sell the excess energy back to the grid. While those with systems already installed won’t be affected, the new class of customers will now be charged a monthly fee — a shift that happened quickly and caught many in the state off guard.

83-5 the voted without debate. Wow! Where are the Democrats or the people who think charging people for being environmentally responsible is bullshit? There were five of them. Out of 88. Oklahoma loves being fucked by Republicans.

Finally, an Oklahoma school district has decided to include, in its education system, something Hobby Lobby wants: A bible curriculum. Oh shit, not this crap again.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"](Hobby Lobby president Steve Green hopes the program — which will be overseen by Jerry Pattengale, head of the Green Scholars Initiative — will be placed in “hundreds” of high schools by 2016, and “thousands” by 2017. It is a four-year elective course in which students will study the narrative, history, and impact of the Bible on Western Civilization. Because the book is being taught within an academic purview, it does not violate the Establishment Clause of the Constitution as interpreted by the Supreme Court in Abington School District v. Schempp.

Really? The bible? The entire bible? Old and New? Or just what Jesus “said?” Can we see a textbook that will be used? What about the Torah’s impact on Western Civ? How about the Koran? Analects? The Vedas? Christmas Trees and the Easter Bunny are pagan symbols? Can we include them too? Probably not, because the bible is the only thing that matters.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]“Nothing we have said here indicates that such study of the Bible,” the Court decided, “when presented objectively as part of a secular program of education, may not be effected consistently with the First Amendment.”

Statements made by Green when he received the 2013 Templeton Prize for Progress Toward Research or Discoveries about Spiritual Realities strongly suggest that the material in the Museum of the Bible Curriculum will neither be “presented objectively” nor “part of a secular program.”

I’m curious if they will teach the part where Jesus said hate thy neighbor if they are gay. Blessed be the wealthy. Those in glass houses should through as many stones as possible. Fuck peace, Jesus wants to blast caps in non-believer’s asses. I’m sure Betty Bowers would love to teach this course.

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]Scott Brown and John Sununu[/font]

Sometimes it’s best in politics to just shut up. Because when you’re silent, you don’t have to worry about sounding like a jackass. Braying and Hee-hawing all the way through your life.

But now for Republicans. . .and not for Scott Brown and his new found friend, former Reagan lackey and mental midget John H. Sununu. I know, I know. . .all of you are asking the same thing I did. I also thought he died too.

Anyway, it’s time to launch one of the lamest, dumbest and most hypocritical attacks ever on a sitting senator.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]
“Shaheen votes with Elizabeth Warren. She votes with (Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Ed) Markey. She is the third senator from Massachusetts,” Sunnunu said at Brown's Portsmouth, N.H. rally, according to Yahoo's Chris Moody. “Scott’s happiest days as a young man were in New Hampshire. … So it’s going to be great to have a senator that was born virtually in the state of New Hampshire. Jean Shaheen, by the way, was born in Missouri!”

There is so much stupid in that, where to begin.

01: Shaheen is a Democrat. So is Warren and Markey. She will probably vote for things Democrats want. Does that mean Sanders is an MA Senator too? Leahy? Schumer? Angus Young in Maine? WTF is this piece of shit smoking?

02: Brown’s happiest days are in New Hampshire. . .great. Why did he move then? He left New Hampshire and became a senator from MA. Now he’s carpetbagging.

03: Jean Shaheen was born in Missouri. Oh snap. . .now it’s bad to be an American from the Heartland? So, according to John Sununu, people who move to new states are ineligible to run or should be voted out of office because they aren’t from the place they were born. According to your son’s wikipedia page, Johnny, he was born in Boston. Now, I teach geography and know how to read a map. Boston doesn’t look like it’s in New Hampshire. Let’s check the map.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

Nope. . .that is clearly not New Hampshire. In fact, John H. Sununu, the asshole talking, was born in Havana! So, you’re a fucking foreigner, asshole. Why don’t you go back from where you came? I’m sure Fidel and Raul will accept you. Do you speak, as Tom Tancredo put it, “illegal immigrant” or do you speak English? Yes, I’m being absurd, but the hypocrisy is just so much to handle.

But wait. . .Scott Brown, according to his wikipedia page, was born in Kittery, Maine. Is Maine part of New Hampshire? Let’s check the map again.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

Definitely not. In fact, Johnny, Maine used to be part of Massachusetts, where you were born. So you’re both hypocritical carpetbaggers.

Now is the time for both you and your little asshole friend John Sununu to just shut up and go away, Scott. The voters of Massachusetts didn’t want your worthless ass, and it appears your senate run in New Hampshire is DOA. But hey, you can always go back to be a centerfold.


[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

[font style="font-size:1.539em; text-transform:uppercase;"]North Korean Bullies[/font]

And finally, this internationally flavored edition ends with North Korean diplomats losing their shit and trying to do in a foreign country what works in their country: stifle satire and bully people into gulags.

This is the story of Mo Nabbach, a hair salon manager in London. Apparently, in an attempt to drum up business, he put up a sign in his window. It was of North Korean leader. . .I mean overlord and master, Jabba the Kim. . .oops, Kim Jong Un, the only man in a country suffering from famine to have a double chin, and the sign said “having a bad hair day?” Here is the sign.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]

Sophomoric. Lame. . .trying to be funny, but failing. Okay, we understand the intention.

Not so fast. Apparently, this bothered Asian looking men so they started taking photos “the day after it went up.” Nothing wrong with that. Maybe someone thought it was funny and Asian looking could be Japanese, South Korean, Chinese, Mongolian. . .people from Southeast Asia. This is where the story gets weird.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]The pair allegedly told him to remove the poster, which they described as disrespectful to their immortal overlord leader. But Nabbach said that he frequently used pictures of celebrities in promotions (the poster advertised a 15-percent off offer), including Lady Diana.

They told him to remove it. Imagine the shock they must have gotten when Nabbach responded with two one fingered salutes with a simple phrase: Get the fuck out of my place, you Kim sucking asshole!” At least, that’s how I would have responded.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]"I told them: 'Listen, this is not North Korea. This is England," said Nabbach.

That don’t matter. They are North Koreans. They own the world! At least they think they are the tail wagging the dog. And if weren’t for China, they wouldn’t even be the tail.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Police sources traced Nabbach's visitors back to the North Korean embassy, which is just a 10-minute walk from Nabbach's salon, although the manager said the two never actually identified themselves as embassy officials. A spokesman at the embassy declined to comment on the story.

The problem that alot of people from this part of the world (remember, the writer lives in China) is that they require the world to bend to them. Even when they are in your own country. This salon is not on the North Korean embassy grounds. It’s ten minutes away. So, these assholes walked ten minutes in an attempt to intimidate and threaten someone that isn’t one of their citizens in a country that isn’t even theirs.

If that doesn’t describe how fucked up shit is in Pyongyang, nothing does. At least Kim the Fat has his haircut.

[div class="excerpt" style="background-color:#F4E0E0; border:1px solid #E8C0C0; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #C66666 inset; border-radius:0.6em; margin:0.5385em 0em 0em 0.5385em;"]Rubin Carter died over the weekend at the age of 76. It took him twenty years to find justice. And his plight is a travesty of justice and Americana.

George Stinney was executed at the age of 14 on no evidence. His parents were ran out of town in South Carolina and he was executed alone. The mask covering his face slipped off, “revealing his wide-open, tearful eyes and saliva coming from his mouth...After two more jolts of electricity, the boy was dead." His plight lasted 81 days. Yet, nothing has been done and the conviction stands even to this day.

The writer of the Top Ten urges all to work, help and donate to Rubin Carter’s group or The Innocence Project. Only when we make things that happened to Rubin Carter and George Stinney public can our justice system do what it’s supposed to do: give justice rather than punishment; convict based on evidence, not based on bias.

One can hope Mr. Carter’s plight and that of George Stinney will never happen again, but the writer of the Top Ten knows it will. We all need to work hard to insure justice happens for all those wrongfully convicted of crimes they did not commit.

See you next week.
