I previously mentioned what was going on with the Flight 93 Memorial here, regarding Rep. Charles Taylor’s (R-NC-asshat)Â blocking the funding, and here regarding how the Memorial was redone so as not to include the Islamic Cresent. Now, he has been gratious (sic) enough to stop blocking funds for the Memorial: A North Carolina congressman on […]

My local House Congressional Critter, Brad Miller, has officially joined the ranks of Moonbat De Jure with his postings over at the Daily Kosbat. In his most current moonbattery, apparently he needs to justify that he and Markos are just good friends. Actually quite amusing.

Authorities in nearby Creedmoor said […]

Yesterday, I discussed NC Rep Charles Taylor blocking money for the Flight 93 Memorial. Lemuel Calhoon of Hillbilly White Trash brings up an interesting point. The proposed memorial will honor the memory of the hijackers as well as the victims. The thing will be shaped like a giant Islamic crescent. Deal with those problems and […]

A few days ago, I mentioned the ACLU taking on the Chatham County (NC) Commissioners over the use of Jesus’ name at government meetings, in which the ACLU was basically told to go to Hell. Of course, the ACLU probably doesn’t believe in Hell, and, would probably sue if someone in government actually said that […]

For what, you say? For this asshat: Family members of those killed on United Flight 93 are urging a North Carolina congressman to lift his hold on funding for a memorial planned for the Pennsylvania site where the plane crashed on Sept. 11, 2001. Nearly a dozen family members are scheduled to meet with their […]

Nifong’s decision could affect players who, before the party, had entered agreements in which prosecutors would […]
