Sarah's Pawn, Vaughn Gone!

So, Sarah Palin's hand picked candidate Vaughn Ward for Idaho's first district went down hard. Nice to know Idaho voters want leaders who take their own stands, write their own speeches and know United States geography. It appears, anger at Washington isn't a strong enough platform to run on.

This is bad news for a certain 1/2 term northern governor who has visions of high office.

Coulter's Joke or Coulter is a Joke

Is it a day ending in Y? Then Ann Coulter must be saying something stupid. And of course she doesn't disappoint. It seems Ann can't understand why someone hasn't thrown down a fatwa on her. For those who don't know, a fatwa is similar to a legal opinion, issued by a Islamic law scholar. Back in 1988 Salman Rushdie released Satanic Verses and received a fatwa calling for his death. Ann whines if Rushdie got a one, why can't she?

That's simple.

No one in the United States takes Ann seriously anymore, so why should she be surprised to find out no one in the Islamic world does either?

Although, since Ann has become such a joke, it's possible she could get someone to throw another one of these at her.

HAF Wits: Hating Americans since at least the McCarthy Era

Well the "Hate Americans First" (HAF) crowd is at it again. No its not the people Fox News and other neocons would have you believe. Rather the HAF Wits include the likes of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell both of whom blamed American citizens for the September 11th attacks. It also includes CNN's Glen Beck who on national television questioned the allegiance of Keith Ellison, a democratically elected member of Congress. Now, Michael Savage a extreme right radio blowhard, solidified his place among the wits by claiming that terrorists are justified in attacking the United States because some Americans such as homosexuals and a female Senator dare exercise their God given right to participate in the democratic process.

Right wing nut jobs like Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh fall all over themselves to trash the likes of Sean Penn, Martin Shean or Susan Sarandon who rightfully question our government's course! Don't hold your breath about hearing similar condemnation of the HAF wits for blaming Americans for the nation's troubles.
