Hey, there’s a pimple on my nose! Destroy this mirror!
Well, that just shows that Rumsfeld’s thinking is unknowing unknowable.
Jeb Bush wanted to make unwed mothers publish their sexual history in a newspaper. This was a few years ago but this article about it came out today.
Yeesh. I had not heard that one before but it does not surprise me. What I really don’t get is why people think Jeb is a moderate. That guy is a scary true believer with lots of history that backs this up. I think the only thing he is moderate on is immigration.
Idaho natives will fail. Pennsylvanians who relocated to Idaho will be making scrapple.
Oh I love this part:
Oh, you mean those other things you psychotically oppose without compromise?
I nominate the Tijuana Bible.
Not kosher. Make it a fetal lamb.
How about the Lolcat Bible?
I can haz Rezrekshun?
Did Jeb get the *point *of The Scarlet Letter? Maybe he should re-read the Spark Notes.
Hmmm … they left out paleontology from their list of Biblical sciences. That’s gonna cheese off a lot of Creationists. Or more likely, they are such dumbasses that they think paleontology and archaeology are the same.
eschereal, you’ll be happy to know that this did not become law in Alabama, it got shuffled off by the house leadership and died quietly.
Or not. The idiots, er, elected representatives of the State of Alabama will have to come back for a summer session since they were unable to deal with the budget deficet (sp) except to offer the Governor a budget that cut $200 M from an already lean budget (it would close most if not all State parks, gut the Highway patrol, affect Medicare benefits, and probably lead to Federal takeover of the prison systme (which is already at 180% capacity).
So Governor Bentley vetoed it and is bringing them back to try again. Bentley isn’t exactly a hero; he ran for re-election last year touting all he had done and promising not to raise taxes, then once safely re-elected, he was shocked…Shocked!..to find the state was broke. To his credit he has proposed a long-term solution which no one else in Alabama has done (except for legalizing gambling).
So once back in session, who knows what those lovable loons may come up with so they can point to the voters “look at what I did.”
Idiots.
Well, its not been proven that faith-based economics doesn’t work, its only that they have not been given a sufficient opportunity to prove their value.
Who was it said Alabama, your cadillac has a wheel on the track, and a wheel in the ditch? Maybe the southern man does need him around. Anyhow …
I know they loved the governor in Birmingham, but I guess pretty much everywhere else in the state too.
Yeah, thanks to a combination of the Civil Rights struggle and Nixon’s Southern Strategy, the state has been pretty reliaby Republican the past few decades, and then the ‘conservative’ Dems, who at least occassionally won an election, got caught with their hand in the till and between convictions and party strife, would be hard-pressed to elect a dog-cathcher (Birmingham is probably the only major place that still elects Democrats outside of some gerrymandered districts).
Bentley could have been caught naked with a dozen ladies of doubtful virtue, pardoned 30 Willie Hortons and still not lost**…as long as he muttered the three magic words “No New Taxes”.
** Not that Bentley would have done so…he makes Calvin Coolidge look like a wild and crazy guy.
Let’s give a big, warm hug to Idaho state Rep. Paul Shepherd, shall we?
WTF is going on Idaho? They’re going to have to change the name to Idadumbass pretty soon.
The potatoes have achieved sentience (of a sort) and quietly replaced all the actual humans?
