Captain Capitalism: The Hypocrisy is Astounding
Captain Capitalism: The Hypocrisy is Astounding: "And Lee Hamilton and his leftist likes think we can engage in 'constructive dialogue' with these bipolar freaks?"
School bans 'U.S.A.' cheer as insult
School bans 'U.S.A.' cheer as insult: "A Wisconsin high school has banned the apparently patriotic cheer U.S.A., U.S.A., saying that for many students it is shorthand for a vulgar insult. "

Another one bites the dust!
"Aside from me not showing up for the job, do you have any other problems with my performance?"
County boss agreeing to step aside: "'There were a lot of things that needed to get done that weren't getting done,' Scolnik said. 'Nothing bad happened, but a lot of more good things could have happened with new leadership. "

He's got a point!
The problem isn't selfish taxpayers, it's greedy politicians who are taking our money to buy political support for themselves. When will we ever learn?
"That's Saul, folks!": "The amount of spending in real dollars of state government continues to go up. We spent more this last year than the year before and have continued to spend more every year under Governor Granholm. In fact, this Governor has ignored the constitutional requirement to spend within the state’s budget, secretly creating a deficit and not announcing it until after the election…now that’s pure politics. Michigan has a constitutional requirement to live within a balanced budget."

Bozo alert!
If Viagra isn't a "lifestyle or sexual enhancement drug" what the heck is it? A weaponizer? "Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"
From an e-mail:
"Looks like a slam-dunk to me! If the timber is too limber, a guy can't sodomize.IMHO, they should go after aspirin makers too: "Not tonight Lance, I have a headache. I understand, Bruce my sweet."
AIDS group to sue Pfizer over Viagra ads Health Reuters.com: "The AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) told Reuters it wants Pfizer to be barred from marketing Viagra as a lifestyle or sexual enhancement drug. The nonprofit organization said Pfizer's actions had led to risky behavior by men and an increase in HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases."
Racists!
Maybe the "left" has another word for those who would exclude others based on their race.
Here in Muskegon I see it as "sheet-wearing racism"!
The Politico: "former Rep. William Lacy Clay Sr., D-Mo., a co-founder of the caucus, had circulated a memo telling members it was 'critical' that the group remain 'exclusively African- American.'
Other members, including the new chairwoman, Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, D-Mich., and Clay's son, Rep. William Lacy Clay, D-Mo., agreed."

Fly Quantas!
Man kicked off flight for Bush-bashing T-shirt Oddly Enough Reuters.com: "Airline staff said the T-shirt of Bush with the tagline 'World's number 1 terrorist' could have upset other passengers and demanded it be changed for another."
Truth can be painful
Back Talk: Anti-Victory Democrats: "An anti-war Democrat, as I use the term, refers to a Democrat who opposed the invasion of Iraq (or believes now that it was a mistake) but recognizes the importance of not being defeated there. An anti-victory Democrat, by contrast, is one who has chosen to believe that victory is hopeless (i.e., that defeat is at hand) and who has further chosen to believe that the humbling of America would actually be a good thing. "
I may start watching SNL again
The audience laughter did seem to be a bit restrained, though. Bummer!

Judge Judy OVERPAID!
In the interest of taking that first "one small step" to reducing IMCOME INEQUALITY shouldn't we take a bunch of money from these chicks and give it to ....... well, me? Why not?
Yes, I know that Barney Frank wants the money but why not give the booty taken from the rich back to the tax payers rather than to the crooks in congress?
I actually like the JJ Show but I actually like money too. And I HATE inequality!
'Judge Judy' earns more per year than all 9 Supreme Court Justices - COMBINED...

It seems Muskegon spends more effort to cover up our problem than solving it.

A bit more to the story?
Paper: Missing Mo. Boy Met With Police: "Ten months after Shawn Hornbeck's disappearance, he spoke with police to report his bike had been stolen but gave no clue that he was a missing child, a newspaper reported Saturday."
Huh?
Lot's of thoughts on this one.
Why did it take over a week to clear this officer?
Why put any officer on "paid administrative leave"? Why not just reassign to another job?
Why is "administrative leave" a "routine procedure". Shoot at someone, get a paid vacation?
Why is the most intriguing part of this story, the "complaint" of the crook not reported in the story? What was the crook's complaint?
Why is the description of the arrested guy's accomplice not in the story. Or his description?
Officer cleared after shooting; 1 suspect remains at large: "However, Manies was caught approximately 12 hours later after he contacted a Muskegon police officer to make a complaint. "

A hint of money?
Where would the class action lawyers be if they didn't have "researchers" looking for "hints"?
Cancer study ordered into mobile phones - Britain - Times Online: "Professor Lawrie Challis, who is in the final stages of negotiation with the Department of Health and the mobile phone industry for the £3 million that he needs to fund the study, told The Times that research has shown that mobiles are very safe in the short term but that there is a “hint of something” for people using them longer."

Con job at The Weather Channel
Con job at The Weather Channel:
This week Americans observed a national day of mourning (I'm speaking not of President Ford's funeral, but rather the day that Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi seized power in Congress).
Far-left political ideologies are being promulgated through ever-increasing mediums, and recently I noticed that a once-vaunted American television network, The Weather Channel, had succumbed to the cancerous spread of liberalism.
The Weather Channel debuted in 1982 and went on to earn a reputation as a well-known and respected cable network. The explosive success of the cable channel prompted the publication of a book marking the network's 20th anniversary. That success has been based on the fact that weather forecasts are sought after by a vast number of Americans on a near-daily basis.
(Column continues below)
What had been nice about The Weather Channel is that through most of its history it stayed clear of political propaganda and focused on delivering weather forecasts to the nation, supplemented with riveting live reports from the front lines of hurricanes, winter blizzards and springtime floods. "

Asbestos Fireproofing Might Have Prevented World Trade Center Collapse
Thank you, eco-nuts....Asbestos Fireproofing Might Have Prevented World Trade Center Collapse
"Berlau’s report of the post-Sept. 11 fireproofing testing by NIST underscores the chilling possibility that the Sept. 11 WTC building collapses may have been delayed if not preventable had asbestos fireproofing been used."

"Life Under the Bush Debacle "
The Corner on National Review Online: "Life Under the Bush Debacle "
Jonah – Each of your pro-Kerry correspondents take pains to point out how poorly the country has fared under George W. Bush, and how those who support him (especially you…) are destroying the country. Let’s see, last time I checked,
1) The stock market is at an all-time high, thus
2) Retirement accounts are at last recovering.
3) Unemployment is at a 25-year low,
4) Taxes are at 20-year lows,
5) Federal revenues are at all-time highs,
6) The Federal deficit is down almost 50%,
7) Real estate values have soared,
8) Inflation is at a 20-year low,
9) There have been no successful attacks since 9/11,
10) Al Queda is being taken apart, one body at a time.
11) U.S. and British Intelligence have thwarted a number of attacks.
12) The terrorists are flocking to Iraq to be killed, instead of boarding planes for this country.
If any of your writers were as honest they dare you to be, they would admit that, if the president who had accomplished this in the face of such difficulty had a “D” after his name instead of an “R”, they would be singing his praises to the heavens. But no, the country is falling apart. Only if a Democrat takes the White House will everything instantly be perfect again.
