AIRBUSTED! European Pride and Joy.

I was listening to the radio talk show on my home from work today and the subject on Airbus came up. Seems like Europe is having a big ego trip tripping over themselves about this Airbus, jumbo mumbo airplane to take the world by storm. Yet the number of planes ordered so far is 149 when 250 is needed to make a profit. Yet also a number of companies have dropped or delayed their orders simply because airports will have to make the needed but very expensive changes in order to accomodate the behemoths. Airports want to make money, too, not lose money. While I listened further on the radio the radio host made an important point. A good significant portion of the materials, equipments and machinery comes from the United States. And yet it's people like Jacques Chirac of France, Tony Blair of Britain, Gerhard Schroeder of Germany and Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero of Spain who praised the costly development project as a pinnacle of European technology. Wowza! European pride. Who knew it existed?

When we look at this monument of human achievement, we see that Europe can't be stopped," Zapatero told the crowd. "We're capable of being a leader in science and technology when we are highly determined."

Highly determined? A leader? America is already one. And yet they (the main stream media ) make these sickening accolades with comments like this:

With British-built wings spanning up to 80 meters, Spanish titanium, Rolls Royce engines, and German and French engineering and assembling, the plane is regarded as a symbol of European cooperation.

Oooh...a "symbol of European cooperation." Funny how MSM and Europe do not want to mention America as being one of the biggest contributors and cooperators on parts made in America shipped over to Europe for the Airbus.

Here's the irony when Europe and most of the mainstream media want to make sure you don't know. Half the aircraft parts, by value, are built by American companies. About half the engines will be made by General Electric/Pratt & Whitney Engine Alliance. B.F. Goodrich is building the landing gear. Honeywell is making cockpit electronics and an environmental surveillance system, which integrates weather radar, traffic alert and collision avoidance and a ground-proximity warning system.

Airbus has suppliers in 44 U.S. states, and spends more than $5.5 billion a year on aircraft parts built in the USA, and that number is expected to rise significantly when A380 production goes into full gear. Each A380 Airbus plane cost approximately $270 million dollars.

More money for the United States to make. So much for European independency. This where y'all American Liberals can scream about outsourcing. Now is a good time. Europe is outsourcing nearly half of the work to the United States. Scream all you want about outsourcing a la' Howard "Scream" Dean style. Scream louder so that deaf people can hear ya!!

The "Gay Bowel Syndrome"?

Diarrhea. Everybody at one time or another gets it. Nasty stuff. What I didn't know was the "Gay Bowel Syndrome" until somebody reminded me about tacos and spicy food. And so I did some checking from what I have heard about it earlier in the past. Yep, nasty stuff. The "gay bowel syndrome" is a common problem of homosexual patients in the emergency department.

"Sexually transmitted bowel and rectal diseases are common in gay men and are caused by a wide variety of infectious agents. Each of the entities implicated in the gay bowel syndrome is considered separately and epidemiologic considerations responsible for the appearance of such a syndrome are examined..."

Kind of make sense in how these types of condition get manifested. However, be noted that this condition is NOT exclusive to homosexuals. Heterosexuals can get it just that there is a higher prevelance and risk of homosexuals in getting these conditions. The "gay bowel syndrome" is a misnomer and falsely labels people that way. Mislabeling and mis/disinformation are not the smart way to go. Go to Amazon and get this book. Still the prevelance of such a condition is real among homosexual males. One study stated that:

A clinical pattern of anorectal and colon diseases encountered with unusual frequency in these homosexual patients is termed the gay bowel syndrome. The clinical diagnoses in decreasing order of frequency include condyloma acuminata, hemorrhoids, nonspecific proctitis, anal fistula, perirectal abscess, anal fissure, amebiasis, benign polyps, viral hepatitis, gonorrhea, syphilis, anorectal trauma and foreign bodies, shigellosis, rectal ulcers and lymphogranuloma venereum.

Ye gods! Half of them I don't even know what the heck they are. Good thing we have the internet to look them up and learn something for a change. The photos are pretty graphic. Ewwwww. Looking through I didn't see anything about diarrhea until I came across the Prufer-Kramer L. study on "Gastrointestinal manifestations of AIDS. 1: Basic considerations and viral infections" where it states that:

Fifty to eighty per cent of patients with AIDS-related complex or AIDS have gastrointestinal symptoms, the most common being dysphagia, diarrhea, orperianal lesions. The symptomatology varies from a mild "gay bowel syndrome" to a severe "diarrhea wasting syndrome."

And that was from a 1991 study. I don't reckon much has changed since then. Diarrhea isn't funny. People have died from severe bouts of diarrhea as a result of AIDS. Dysentery is even worse such as it was a common occurrence during the Civil War. Dysentery is having ultra-diarrhea 24/7 where you will dehydrate in a hurry and you go into shock. It's not funny. AIDS is not funny.

Anyway, it's true what they say about playing with fire. You get burned eventually. Play it smart and not act stoopid by being a potty mouth.

I Jib, You Jab...check out JibJab!

The latest JibJab's animation that pokes fun at Democrats AND Republicans is out. It is a riot to watch it. Although, not captioned (you can see the lyrics here) but you can watch an earlier clip a few months ago called "It's Good to Be in D.C." that pokes fun at Bush and Kerry, and everybody else, during the election time. It's "captioned" with a bouncing ball that follows to the singing. What's funny in this clip is the gay part. You'll have to see it to understand. Nobody is immune in these funny animated clips. N...o...b...o...d...y! From President Bush, Gore, Ashcroft down to Kerry.

Ahem, BTW, John Kerry lost the presidential election. The funniest thing I ever witnessed.

Anyway, check it out and watch the animated clips. The JibJab guys (two brothers) were on the Jay Leno show and now their website is getting to be very popular because these clips are so damn funny in how these characters sing. The music is good, too. None of that rock and roll screaming. Great political satire.

People need to have a sense of humour. Some people just don't get it.

President Bush Inaugural Address

Well, President Bush’ inaugural address starts tomorrow. Also a day to remind people that John Kerry lost the election no less. Still we have our group of extremists who wish ill death on President Bush during the inaugural address hoping to see a repeat performance like President William Henry Harrison who spoke for one and half hour in a snow storm only to die of pneumonia a month later. People who wish such ill will or death upon any Presidents whether a Republican, Democrat, Green Party, Libertarian or what have you are simply kooks and deserve to be treated as one. And when people who clap their hands over the news of Reggie White’s death, laugh at people who take delight in seeing other people who were raped, or wish or hope death of certain American leaders are certainly none other than extremists. Those who insist that they’re not extremists (e.g. Liberal extremists) and are not bitter people but continue to do these things are simply not fooling people. They belong to the same class of people seen in the Vonage television commercials of idiots jumping off roofs thinking they’re a kiddie comic book hero who think they can fly like the wind. How little do they know the laws of Physics and gravity.

It is your American civic duty to keep an eye and ear open for any suspicious activities aimed at causing damage, injuries, or deaths during the inaugural event (and any and all future inaugural events, too) need to report their findings to the FBI or police immediately, especially specific death threats.

I will be watching.

Scattered Words...an interesting blogsite.

Scattered Words. Here's a blogsite where one guy is a gay, Christian, Washingtononian trying to blog his way out of homosexuality. I don't know if this is a first but certainly the first I've come across. But what struck me is the people's sheer cruelty by laughing and reveling at this blogger's demise who, supposedly so, experienced a rape by another man. Good grief! Whether or not if this blogger actually exist or made up, how is such a traumatic experience be made easier when people make nasty comments such as

"Hahahaha. Such a poetic justice."
or
"Someone want to donate a shotgun to this guy?"

Hmmm?

Boggles the mind when people actually take delight in other people misfortunes, or deaths of people who have never laid a hand on anybody by saying "good riddance." Here's a site that did an article on Scattered Words. An interesting piece.

Other people have made comments about the blogsite on their blogsites.

Gay or straight, it is never right to take in delight of other people's extreme misfortunes by saying that they "deserved it" just because of their sexual orientation. Neither is it right to take advantage of other people's misfortunes just to further an agenda or goal, including religion. It is just downright ugly to see people who think rape is funny. Let's hope they don't experience the same thing themselves someday. We can see how these people are really smarmy and cruel. An echelon higher than pedophiles.

Kiddie Comic Books and Clinton's Inaugural Address

Some people insist on wanking publicly without thinking first while at the same time read kiddie comic books for jollies is enough to question their sanity. Why should they complain about the cost of President Bush upcoming 2005 inaugural party just because of fat cats buying a bunch of the 2005 inaugural tickets, or even decry that tickets are not affordable? Yet, people weak on history easily and conveniently forget Clinton's own inaugural party and fat cats? How nice.

Maybe a clue is in order to check out Clinton's donor's list for a change? How about the 1993 list? Ring a bell? Ok. How about the 1997 list with over 2400 listed names? Ok, now you're complaining that I didn't put Bush's current 2005 list? Here it is so far. Oh, and yet during President Bill Clinton's 1997 inauguration, ball tickets cost $150 each while Bush 2001 inaugural tickets cost $125. But for 2005 ball tickets it will cost $150 dollars each. Not much difference from Clinton.

What? You people still complaining??

Get a friggin clue people. And stop that wanking while you're at it. It's bad enough to witness a bunch of "Captain Wankers" in blue capes and spandex tights running around trying to save the day using the power of empty intellect alone. The picture just doesn't seem quite right.

Continuing Saga of Lauri's Discrimination

You know Lauri. She's the Deaf woman who was denied by the CISS/Deaflympics to compete in the Deaf World Golf Championships that was held in Stockholm, Sweden in 2004 only because she wore her hearing aid at the U.S. Deaf Golf Championships in Pinehurst, North Carolina. This U.S. Deaf Golf Championships abide by the rules/regulations of the CISS/Deaflympics even though they tentatively allowed Lauri to wear her hearing aid.

Lauri's audiogram confirms that she is eligible to play in any CISS/Deaflympics games in the United States (and elsewhere). According to their regulations Lauri must have an average 55 dB loss in BOTH ears to play in their games. And for her to play she must remove her hearing aid in her right ear, unless the regulations are changed to allow hearing aids and cochlear implants. For any CISS/Deaflympics related games in the United States with the regulations unchange seems to be in violation of the U.S. current Social Security regulations and Americans With Disabilities Act (which also prohibits segregation).

(SSAregulations, Appendix I, Subpart P, for adults over age 18): Hearing Impairments (criteria for Legal Deafness), Section 2.08, using best available acoustic hearing aids). There are two requirements to determine how one is to be "legally deaf" :

A . Average hearing loss at 90 dB or greater in both ears (Laurie meets this criteris for her Left Ear, but not for her Right Ear, thus she is not "legally deaf" under this section);

OR

B. Speech discrimination scores of 40 percent or less in the better ear,with maximal use of acoustic hearing aids (In Lauri's audiogram report it says that "Speech discrimination testing could not be performed" meaning that Lauri cannot distinguish any sounds of speech in her left ear OR in her right ear (even with her hearing aid)).

In the B section LAURI IS IN FACT LEGALLY DEAF UNDER SECTION 2.08B of the Social Security regulations, which are the regulations of the United States federal government for determining legal deafness.

Despite her use of the hearing aid has not at all changed her status as a Legally Deaf person.

Lauri's rights have surely been violated according to U.S. Federal laws and regulations.

You can read past blog pieces and related links regarding Lauri and other similar discriminatory practices.

Surreal, ain't it folks?

Hate Crime Against Christians

Four days ago an Egyptian Christian family of four murdered in Jersey City Heights.

The New York Post reports today that the father was an outspoken critic of Islamist:

Hossam Armanious, 47, who along with his wife and two daughters was found stabbed to death in his Jersey City home early Friday, would regularly debate religion in a Middle Eastern chat room, one source said.

Armanious, an Egyptian Christian, was well known for expressing his Coptic beliefs and engaging in fiery back-and-forth with Muslims on the Web site paltalk.com.

He "had the reputation for being one of the most outspoken Egyptian Christians," said the source, who had close ties to the family. The source, who had knowledge of the investigation, refused to specify the anti-Muslim statement. But he said cops told him they were looking into the exchanges as a possible motive.

The married father of two had recently been threatened by Muslim members of the Web site, said a fellow Copt and store clerk who uses the chat room.
"You'd better stop this bull---- or we are going to track you down like a chicken and kill you," was the threat, said the clerk, who was online at the time and saw the exchange...

Armanious’ fervor apparently rubbed off on his daughter, Sylvia — who would have turned 16 yesterday. “She was very religious and very opinionated,” said Jessica Cimino, 15, a fellow sophomore at Dickenson HS.

A family member who viewed photos of the bloodbath said Sylvia seemed to have taken the most savage punishment. “When we saw the pictures, you could tell that they were hurt really, really bad in the face; especially Sylvia,” said Milad Garas, the high-school sophomore’s great-uncle.

The heartless killer not only slit Sylvia’s throat, but also sliced a huge gash in her chest and stabbed her in the wrist, where she had a tattoo of a Coptic cross. The Newark Star Ledger has more on the Egyptian Copt community's outrage:

"This was a terrorist attack," said Amgad Zakhari, 32, a real estate investor who has known the Armanious family since their arrival in the United States. "It was to make an example of Egyptian Christians, to silence them. It has to be a religious motivation."

Friends also provided more details on Armanious' online debates: Relations between Muslims and Coptic Christians have historically been tense. Copts are a minority in Muslim-dominated Egypt, and Coptic Web sites contain numerous accounts of persecution at the hands of the government and the nation's residents.

In Jersey City, the heart of New Jersey's Coptic community, Copts and Muslims share an uneasy peace, residents say.

Armanious, a banquet waiter known as a very devout man, did not intentionally slight Muslims when he visited Internet chat rooms, friends said.
"He was trying to tell people about Christianity," Zakhari said. "He was a good Christian. He was trying to use the Internet to help the community. He was trying to give the Christian word."

Armanious was so involved in the Internet talks that he became an administrator in one of the chat rooms, reached through an instant-messaging portal (www.paltalk.com).

The friend, who recounted the threat against Armanious and who requested anonymity, said the slain man had been engaged in the hobby for about five years. The altercation that unfolded two months ago started when another user of the site took offense to Armanious' comments about Islam, telling him to "shut up."

"I can say whatever I want," the friend said Armanious responded. "I live in America..."

Will the patriotic leaders of CAIR--always quick to jump on the hate-crimes bandwagon when it fits their agenda--join the Egyptian Christian community in condemning the vicious Armanious slayings? If this is any indication, not likely. But of course, some of the more militant Liberal idiots would never put in their ounce of sympathy (or condemnation of such an act) even though the Egyptian Christian family voiced their beliefs strongly only because the United States gave them their freedom of expresssion, and speech. In essence, they'll go as far as saying that they "deserved" it putting them on par with those terrorists who believe in the same thing. And that would be you do not have a right to express your own viewpoints, no matter how extreme. Acting on murder is not a form of freedom of expression. Just goes to show their extreme insecurity about themselves. And it all starts with name calling, which is a sign of insecurity to compensate for what they already lack.

May the Armanious family rest in peace. They're in God's graces now.

Hat Tip to Malkin.

Michael Moore - A High School Reject

Michael Moore is not getting much respect at his old high school which is good news. He has been rejected all four times to be nominated for Davison High School's Hall of Fame. No doubt Moore can get the award "Hall of Shame" without much problems.

From a high school student at Davison High: "I haven't talked to anybody yet who's for him. The word to describe Michael Moore is embarrassing. He embarrasses everybody."

No kiddin? Michael Moore? Embarrassing? Too kind. Let's hope Michael Moore continues to enjoy his big macs, shakes and fries like every living red-blooded Americans. Even I enjoy it, too.

It's Da Love Bomb for Terrorists

A project was revealed today by the Pentagon made me laugh and, heck, even made the best sense to use these non-lethal chemical bombs described by the Pentagon in the already released de-classified documents. One of them is the "Love Bomb" would cause other enemies to have lusting desires by making them sexually irresitible to each other. If a chemical can be made to do this it would simply be a deeply and humiliating blow to the enemies morale. Wonder what would happen if Zarqarwi and Osama were in the same area and the "Love bomb" was dropped? If you thought that putting panties over the heads of prisoners was bad and a form of torture (uh, let me laugh for a sec...ha ha...hey, frat brothers did this all the time during the good old hazing days) then this chemical "aphrodisiac" bomb would be the Mother of all Humiliation bomb. Hey, I'm all for it!

The peaceniks have always been saying "Make Love, Not War." Well, this "Love Bomb" is the sure fire answer. Just don't drop it in NYC.

When A Liberal Goes Nutty

This is from an actual email from a rabid Liberal militant with nothing much between the ears with the typical fashion of wishing people from the opposite political party to die, even gruesomely. Anybody care to guess who? I think deaf ears need to see this and learn not to mimick such lout behaviors.

F** you. I hope you get cancer & die a horrible painful death all alone, with your collegues shunning you and the rest of us reading how wrong you are AND WHAT A CRUMMY WRITER YOU ARE.

Before you say anything, read the link for once before you make an ass of yourself and assume something which is not the case.

Disqualified Russian Wrestler Was Not Exactly Hearing

A Russian wrestler has been thrown out of the Deaflympics after it was discovered that his hearing was better than the allowable level for competitors.

Sergey Iankovsky was disqualified during the heats of the Greco-Roman wrestling after Iran launched a protest, claiming that he was responding to instructions from his coach during a bout against an Iranian wrestler last week.

All Deaflympic athletes must remove hearing aids before competition and an International Deaflympic Committee-sanctioned test conducted after the appeal found that Iankovsky had a 48-decibel hearing loss in his good ear, whereas the Deaflympic rules state that competitors must have not less than 55-decibel loss.

Well, the story is a little more clear now. The Russian wrestler was not at all a hearing person.

Click here to see more updates on the idiocy of CISS/Deaflympics officials disqualifying two other deaf/hh competitors for wearing a hearing aid. For the love of Zeus, you can't get any kookier than that.

140 students from FSDB to Perform at Superbowl

Five-time Grammy award winning artist Alicia Keys is scheduled to perform during the Super Bowl pre-game show at Alltel stadium.

Keys will be joined by 140 students from the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind in St. Augustine." The kids are very excited," said Jill Storey, a spokesperson for the school. Keys has been tapped to perform, "America the Beautiful".

The students will sing and sign the song with Alicia Keys. The students are already practicing.

For those who don't know Alicia Keys, she's one cool beautiful chick and was raised as a classically trained pianist! She now performs Rhythmn and Blues, and Soul music. Go to Amazon and you can listen to several of Alicia Keys music samples. As always, I'll keep to my own Ragtime and early Jazz piano playing for myself to enjoy and listen as I practice them.

BTW, one of my good friend who lives in Miami went to FSDB, and then later to Gallaudet University where I met him there.

The First Trillionaire...guess who may be one someday?

Ah, billionaires...they're all over the place. But we haven't seen the first trillionaire and that may come about several years from now. Check it out how Bill Gates could possibly become the first trillionaire.

When a Stupid "Burglar" Does the Colossal

Former Clinton aide Sandy (aka "Burglar") Berger is under U.S. grand jury investigation for the removal (i.e. stuffing them into his socks, pants and jackets) of top secret documents while in the (closely monitored) screening room of the National Archives.

Berger admitted he removed as many as 50 top-secret documents from the archives, calling it an an "honest mistake." Er..let me laugh for a second...ha ha (weakly).

The stolen documents were for the Sept. 11 commission's inquiry into the terror attacks on New York and Washington. Sandy "Burglar" removed them solely to try and reduce any embarassment for the former President, Bill Clinton. He had a lot of embarassments, eh no?

Sandy Burglar also said he destroyed some of the documents, but claimed it was an "accident." Oops, there it is again, another "accident" comment made by Sandy the Burglar. Kind of like Bill Clinton's own little, "mind yer business", "accident" with Lewinsky. They just couldn't help themselves. Totally impossible. A force of nature to reckon with. Oops...had to have a little fun in the stalls at a bathroom stop off of the highway. Can't help it. Oops...just said the "F" word. Can't help that either. Maybe Hillary Clinton will "accidentally" find a way into Bill Clinton's bed for a change? Don't bet on it. She's one calculating little b...

Anyway, Sandy the Burglar pilfered (i.e. "stolen") documents were classified "Code Word," the highest security classification, above Top Secret! Wow. Sandy the Burglar had to sign his name and leave any kind of containers such as briefcases behind before entering the screening room to review any Top Secret documents in the National Archives. So, there is no way for him to forget where he was and to "accidentally" take these top secret documents stuffed into his socks and pants in beyond believability.

Anybody who believes otherwise has rocks in his head. You know who you are.

Three things...

1. Sandy the Burglar knew the place contained top secret materials.
2. Sandy the Burglar knew that the only way to get out undetected with the copied documents was to stuff them down into his socks, pants and jackets. That's 50 top secret documents! Now you know what a scarecrow feels like.
3. Sandy the Burglar knew what he threw away at home was Top Secret.
4. Sandy the Burglar knew what he was doing.

Ok..that was four things.

Bill Clinton knows the Burglar! John Kerry, too. He even bragged about it. Hmmm...and all this happened before the election, too. Could it be to try and help John Kerry's election? It wouldn't have helped anyway. Oh, btw, John Kerry lost the election.

"What information could be so embarrassing that a man with decades of experience in handling classified documents would risk being caught pilfering our nation's most sensitive secrets? Did these documents detail simple negligence, or did they contain something more sinister?"

Yeah, I wonder about that, too. Let's jail Sandy the Burglar for stupidity, and breaking the law, too. It's only fair. Just don't bend over while in jail.

BTW, Martha Stewart will be leaving her jail cell soon....completely rehabilitated...and a billionaire, too. Now, isn't that the ultimate Americana? Leave jail and be even richer?

Indoctrination into ASL at Gallaudet University

Many new students arriving at Gallaudet University attend the New Signers Program where for four weeks prior to the beginning of classes they learn only ASL and not PSE or SEE. They do not have that choice since Gallaudet University does not offer those choices to begin with. Even though it is well known that many professors, incidentally hearing, tend to sign more of a PSE signing than ASL. But still soon-to-be professors or teachers must pass the ASL-equivalency skill test before they can teach at Gallaudet University. Suppose a student wish to continue using SEE because of the continued use of correct grammatical English order whether it comes down to signing, speaking or writing English and do not want to learn ASL? What legal grounds can SEE, CUED, SimCom, non-ASL users have in the classes of Gallaudet University should Gallaudet University refuse such accomodations? Just thinking outloud here.

Deaf or hard of hearing students who are unfamiliar with sign language do not have to use sign language but can request note-takers, CART, or oral translators (e.g. CUED speech or verbal) according to the ADA law regarding equal access for students with disabilities. Unless they have thick skins and have the gumptions to take on the derisiveness from students and staffs, they can legally choose that route in classes at Gallaudet University, or elsewhere such as NTID. It's no different than requesting the same support mechanism in other universities or colleges. Why should it be different at Gallaudet University?

Students should have the right to decide which communication route they'd prefer and not be left with only one option...ASL. Bottom line is that there should be a choice. If a deaf or hard of hearing student chooses ASL, all the kudos for him. However, if not, and want to continue, for example, using SEE then he should have that right. Gallaudet University should make every efforts to accomodate his communication needs rather than to try and convert him into signing and learning ASL only. After all, Gallaudet University is a college for deaf and hard of hearing students by catering to their communication needs which are many. It's not about catering to ASL only.

The $240,000 Question....

Paid bloggers? Now, that should not be a new concept noting the fact that many of the well established and much visited blogging sites such as Powerlineblog, Little Green Footballs, The Daily Kos, Instapundit or Michelle Malkin do their bloggings out of the interest of their own hearts. But the latest flap over a paid blogger can be seen in the Armstrong Williams's final column for Tribune Media Services. In the article Armstrong's conflict of interest in secretly accepting money from the Department of Education brings about his apology to the masses. That's fine but he ought to return $241,000 belonging to the taxpayers. And he ought to stop spinning his apology which only makes him a bit more, well, of an imbecile than an honest person recanting only because he got caught. So, who got the bright idea to spend a quarter of a million dollars of taxpayer money to bribe one journalist? It was the Department of Education that paid him, and not President Bush (note to Bush ranters, nice try but no dice but keep it up...makes ya look real dumb). It was Rod Paige, Education Secretary, who suggested this payment but, alas, he's leaving. Go figure. This smacks of something illegal. More will need to be done to look into this for the improper spending of American tax-dollars just to push a political agenda.

Too bad most Liberals will continue to defend Dan Rather's faked "CYA" Memo and would rather, ahem, do so just to preserve their Liberal Fantasyland in a world reminescent of Neverland of wanting to play with little boys and justify their actions. Quite disturbing. That won't cut it. Yet, Conservatives and Republicans alike are going after William's bribery pay and hypocrisy. There's outrage from the Republicans, alright, but certainly not lopsided like the Liberals screaming for the need of an equal outrage as did the Conservatives and Republicans to Dan Rather's major faux pas with the 100% fake cBS "CYA" Memo solely to undermine President Bush' re-election.

Now, that's funny!

UPDATE: Looks like the White House confirms that this was an isolated incident.

Remember, it's "Making a mountain out of a molehill" is how you would say it correctly for those who insist on screeching like ET. Learn the English idioms, please! But in this case such screechings would be a lot of hand waving, signing and opinionated gestures instead. That alone could be considered as obscene. Whatever floats your boat.

A Gay Pedophile to Get His Dues in Court?

This guy likes to play with little boys' nether region, give them wine, porno mags and videos and ask them if they have seen any of their "white stuff" come out while he does *it* for them. See the lurid in details in a now unsealed court document. He need to be castrated. He's done enough on his face already.

Video to 61,000 Public Schools to Promote "Family Values"

In an unprecented move to promote "family values" in a sort of quasi "religious-tolerance" training video aimed at 61,000 public schools to receive "We Are Family" lesson plan.

The cast of characters appearing in the video are from award-winning shows including "Arthur," "Bear in the Big Blue House," "Blue's Clues, Bob the Builder," "The Book of Pooh," "Clifford the Big Red Dog," "Dora the Explorer," "Jimmy Neutron," "JoJo's Circus," "Kim Possible," "Little Mermaid," "Madeline," "The Magic School Bus," "The Muppet Show," "Rugrats," and "Sesame Street."

"While we want everyone to respect other people's beliefs, we do not consider it appropriate for children's television to be used in an effort to indoctrinate children...," said AFA researcher Ed Vitagliano.

The distribution will coincide with the video's broadcast on major television and cable stations on March 11 in celebration of the proposed National "We Are Family" Day.

More information can be found at World Net Daily - a pro-religious family value site.

Now, children will see these cartoon characters and get the message of "family values." What would you say if somebody says "Well, it's about time!" ??

When People Do Dumb Things.

Now, why should a company try and get the FCC to order Fox station to air their $1.2 million dollar television advertisement for the next Super Bowl ad?

McDowell says he has been in talks with Fox since August about the 15-second spot, for which he planned to pay $1.2 million, 10% of the Carmel, Calif.-based company's annual ad budget. "We're disappointed and angry," says McDowell, 42. And while he admits that he hoped to create "buzz," McDowell thinks Fox is being "overzealous in their policing of the airwaves."

David Rice, McDowell's lawyer, sent a letter Monday to the Federal
Communications Commission, arguing the ad is "amusing and entirely appropriate for broadcast" and urging the commission to issue an order directing Fox to broadcast it.

An FCC spokeswoman said Thursday that the commission would never make such an order. The agency responds to complaints after material airs.

After all, Fox station is a private company. It is they who decide what to air and what not to air. If they want to risk getting fined, then that is their prerogative. McDowell is the over-zealous person trying to get the government to do his bidding.
