Associated Press:
FRANKFORT, Kentucky - A group of atheists filed a lawsuit Tuesday seeking to remove part of a state anti-terrorism law that requires Kentucky’s Office of Homeland Security to acknowledge it can’t keep the state safe without God’s help.
What the fuck? This is so patentently offensive as to be beyond imaginination. And, if you can’t [...]

Sorry, alter ego, but uh, I can’t not say something about this. The Rt. Rev. Patrick O’Donoghue, the Bishop of Lancaster and the man charged with reversing the decline in attendance at Catholic Mass in the UK, is blaming many, if not most, of society’s ills on… you guessed it: education. Now here’s a guy who [...]

Well, my goal is to tell people about the truth, uh, that I believe the truth of the Bible states…

Here goes another wacky Catholic (sorry, “alter ego”):
COLUMBIA, S.C. — A South Carolina Roman Catholic priest has told his parishioners that they should refrain from receiving Holy Communion if they voted for Barack Obama because the Democratic president-elect supports abortion, and supporting him “constitutes material cooperation with intrinsic evil.”
The Rev. Jay Scott Newman said [...]

Obama apologizes to Nancy Reagan, but why?

Well, it seems that making reference to Nancy Reagan holding séances in the White House is insulting, apparently in light of the fact that all she did was consult an astrologer for insight as to which days were “good” or “neutral” or “bad”, and then use the astrologer’s “information” to not only influence, but change, President Reagan’s [...]

Washington Times:
Joe the Plumber conceded Monday night that Republican John McCain has a slim chance of defeating Democrat Barack Obama in the race for the White House.
And you know he’s disappointed, what with just having hired a management and publicity team and all. I’m still not really sure why he needed the PR firm to [...]

Priceless. A few of my favorites:
“Apple should pull the plug on the iPhone… What Apple risks here is its reputation as a hot company that can do no wrong. If it’s smart it will call the iPhone a ‘reference design’ and pass it to some suckers to build with someone else’s marketing budget. Then [...]

AIG is simply shameless:
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Democrat of California, and Republican Sen. Mel Martinez of Florida Friday asked American International Group Inc., to stop using taxpayer money in its effort to soften new federal controls over the mortgage industry.
Even after receiving an emergency loan that gave the government an 80% ownership stake in AIG, the [...]
