Typical Loon thief

Welcome to the world of blogging, Arianna. For those not in the know, The Huffington Post (who, like Beth, I refuse to link to,) is a bandwith thief. Redstate.org was a victim of THP’s theivery, go here for the details. (h/t JediGoddess Beth)

And, as one of the commenters at Redstate pointed out, many of her pics are stolen from other sources. Put your mouse over a photo. Look down at the task bar. Notice that the source ‘taint The Huffington Post. I see Yahoo News, SFgate, and Newsday on there at the moment.

And, just a take from a Large Mammal who, in reality, gets about 500 hits minimum (from my internals, previously discussed), her blog sucks. No other way to put it. Crap is all over the place. The formatting is atrocious. People give Glen Reynolds crap, I think mostly in jest, for his quick little takes and links. But at least Glen is linking. Seems as if more then half of THP’s posts are a sentence or two or a simple paragraph (if ye get my meaning), with no links.

Let me write like that:

The Huffington Post is a nauseating pile of shit that violates my right to be annoyance free. Stop hotlinking, beatch!

The “F” Bomb

Let me scroll through my files to find where I should place this story. Morons>Idiots>Boneheads>Dumbass> ah, here we go. Nimrods.

(NEW YORK) Channel 2 TV reporter Arthur Chi’en has been fired for shouting the "F" word at tw hecklers during his live report at a subway train station.

Chi’en was doiing a story about Metro Card scammers when two men began shouting about radio shock jocks Opie-and-Anthony. The two hecklers were making obscene gestures behind the reporter. Chi’en kept talking and when he finished his report, he turned to the two hecklers and said "What the [bleep] is your problem?"

Chi’en thought he was off the air, but apparently the mike picked up the obscenity.

With the FCC cracking down on obscenity, Chi’en was fired yesterday.

ROTFLOL. By the way, do not blame me for the spelling errors. I just excerpted. Perhaps there should have been some editorial oversight. And, yes, I make mistakes. I don’t get paid to write, though.

Muslim Hypocrisy

Via Steve at Secure Liberty comes an article at the Opinion Journal, which, it should be noted, is written by a Muslim.

As a Muslim, I am able to purchase copies of the Quran in any bookstore in any American city, and study its contents in countless American universities. American museums spend millions to exhibit and celebrate Muslim arts and heritage. On the other hand, my Christian and other non-Muslim brothers and sisters in Saudi Arabia–where I come from–are not even allowed to own a copy of their holy books. Indeed, the Saudi government desecrates and burns Bibles that its security forces confiscate at immigration points into the kingdom or during raids on Christian expatriates worshiping privately.

Yet this same government, along with others, continues to pitch a fit over what was a fake story. This is some of the information I had been looking for for this article.

The Bible in Saudi Arabia may get a person killed, arrested, or deported. In September 1993, Sadeq Mallallah, 23, was beheaded in Qateef on a charge of apostasy for owning a Bible.

So, I say lefties, who are you rooting for? You sure like to throw out allegations, slanders, and slurs on the USA, but never seem to find it in you to throw the same comdenation out to those who stand against the USA and it’s major religion.

The Bonfire of the Koran

So the Muslim extremists got all bent out of shape over the supposed desecration of a Koran (Quran?) as reported by Newsweak, despite there being no evidence, and are still up in arms despite Newsweak retracting the story. Hmm. They don’t seem to have an issue with the real story, which was that a Muslim prisoner was tearing the pages out of his copy of the Koran and flushing them down the crapper in an attempt to block it up. They don’t seem to have a problem with

  • Two children have been killed and their mother wounded in a homemade bomb blast outside a Shia mosque in Baghdad, an army official. (notice the tiny little type in the Al Jazeera story. It was formatted that way)
  • In Baghdad, gunmen killed a Shiite Muslim cleric, and two missing Sunni clerics were found shot dead, police said.
  • In October 2000, after Israeli troops evacuated the city of Nablus as a peacemaking gesture, scores of Palestinians stormed into the Joseph’s Tomb compound and destroyed the site believed to be the burial place of the biblical patriarch Joseph – the son of Jacob who was sold by his brothers into slavery and later became the viceroy of Egypt.
  • The report said that one out of every two mosques in Fallujah were used to hide fighters or weapons during a recent offensive. Fallujah is called the "city of mosques" because it has at least 100 such houses of worship.
  • A Christian preacher in the northern Nigeria city of Kano and six members of his family died in a house fire on April 22. Christian leaders in the city believe Muslim militants deliberately set the fatal blaze.

Getting the picture? It is ok for them to desecrate their own religious icons, as well as those of other religions, but, like the Democratic party, "what is good for the goose is NOT good for the gander." Go figure.

Say it ain’t so, Babs?

“It is not the role of the Senate to obstruct the process and prevent numbers of highly qualified nominees from even being given the opportunity for a vote on the Senate floor.” Sen. Barbara Boxer, Congressional Record, May 14, 1997 (via Urban Grounds)

Oops. Not exactly new news, Michelle Malkin had an article about this on April 28th (BTW, is it just me, or is Michelle’s formatting messed up for the header?) How about some of Barbara’s buddies?

"Let’s bring their nominations up, debate them if necessary, and vote them up or down." Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Congressional Record, September 11, 1997

“I do not believe that I as a member of the minority ought to have the right to absolutely stop something because I think it is wrong, that that is rule by minority.” Sen. Tom Harkin, Congressional Record, January 5, 1995

Hmmm. So, as usual, the Dem party is pulling their "what’s good for the goose is NOT good for the gander" twaddle these days. It’s craptacular. Kinda how they made all those comments during Slick’s reign regarding Saddam and his WMD programs, as well as pushing through the Iraq Liberation Act (which was a good thing, I will say.)

When it comes to voting, there should be NO COMPROMISE! Period. You bring these nominees to the floor, and vote on them. Senators have had plenty of time to give their advice in the press for years now. Now it is time to either give their consent on not. That is what the Constitution states. Nowhere in my copy does it state that one must pontificate on BS for hours on end, nor refuse to vote.

Couple things

I hope everyone enjoys the Patriotic Pinup photo’s on the left sidebar. Photo’s, you say? Yup, photos. Hit refresh. Abracadabra, a new photo! I ran across a java script in my attempt to help Beth at MY Vast Right Wing Conspiracy with a script. If you want this one, let me know. The great thing is that there is no pasting within your header like most of them. Just Bam! right in the sidebar.

Will I bust 50K today? Hopefully. With my internal metrics working again, I might be able to see who it is.

Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Go see it.

Please stop advertising medications on TV. I really am not interested in taking something which has side effects that include "upset stomach, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, headache and restlessness." Other side effects include, but are not limited to "skin rash, itching, hives, difficulty breathing or swallowing, swelling of the face or throat, yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, pale or dark stools, blood in urine, pain, inflammation, or rupture of a tendon, rapid, irregular, or pounding heartbeats. Tell your doctor coronor if any of these symptoms are severe or do not go away.
