Rep. Broun: No Boobs On Base, Except Me.

The GOP wants America to know that they are not just the party of “no”, they’re also the party of daft and inconsequential legislation! Indeed, a bunch of Republican representatives are seeking to make 2010 the “Year of the Bible”. And it won’t surprise you for a moment to read that the sponsor of this [...]

Science And Reason Trump Ignorance And Voodoo

As I watched President Obama lift Dubya’s ideologically driven ban on stem cell research funding live on CNN in a far away airport, I was once again truly thankful that the American people elected an intelligent (and sober!) centrist as our President. A group of eminent scientists and campaigners were there to witness the reversal:
“I [...]

Equality: British Racists Just As Cretinous, Uninformed As Other Racists!

The stupid, it burns! Proudly racist UK political party, the BNP, or British National Party, a 1990s offshoot of violent neo-Nazi group, the National Front, has been universally lampooned in the press for using a Polish-piloted Spitfire as a symbol of “Britishness” in their campaign against, among others, Polish immigrants. 
According to RAF history experts, the [...]

Stupid: It’s A Uniter, Not A Divider

It sometimes seems to me that both the Iranian and Israeli right-wing nutbags have the same speech writers (motto: “low-low prices and deranged, inflammatory rhetoric a specialty!”). To defend that statement in an admittedly half-assed way, I present the Prudence Dogood vs Shouty Nutbags, prosecution’s exhibit A: 
Avigdor Lieberman [pictured], leader of the ultra-nationalist Yisrael Beitenu party, [...]

Petty, Stupid And Divisive: The Mixture As Before

There was me thinking that Blair House, mysteriously unavailable to the Obamas who were hoping to get their daughters into the local Quaker school on schedule, was sheltering Tony Blair, former Prime Minister and Britain’s most hated politician (now that Maggie Thatcher is ga-ga), but it seems Blair House is providing grace and favour to [...]

Friedman: Middle East “Expert”

It constantly baffles me that Americans pay any mind at all to the inane burblings of the New York Times’ columnist Thomas Friedman. He commands thousands of dollars at speaking engagements, and millions have bought his books. Books which, frankly, offer the sort of insight into the “Arab street” one would expect to find during [...]

Texans: Twice As Daft As Your Average

According to a recent UT poll out today, a full twenty-three percent of Texans (yes, 23%!) STILL think Obama is a Muslim.
“The Texas numbers are unusual because most national polls show that just 5 to 10 percent of Americans still believe Obama is a Muslim — less than half the number of Texans who [...]
