Another couple of those days

So again, it's "where to begin?"

With celebrities who think OJ should go to jail for both crimes this time...but who, as liberal Hollywood types, think any other criminal's actions should be blamed on racism and his childhood? (Well, at least the crimes that can't be pinned on the Bush administration...)

Or how about more criminals who need to go to Hell...taking a 2-year-old hostage for a stupid BANK robbery...I'm surprised the ground didn't swallow them up right where they stood.

Or maybe the newest ex-Mrs. Bin Laden, thanks to murderous relatives - and get this quote from her hubby:

I adore being with this woman. But we can't stand up when the waves from the sea are coming to wipe us out.

The waves of the sea?!?! No, no Islamofascist threat evident there...the family was concerned about "embarrassment" - yeah, the father-in-law is the #1 Most Wanted Terrorist in the world, and the silly British lady is an "embarrassment..."

On the other hand, how about Mrs. Let's-Have-Stillborn-Baby-After-Stillborn-Baby-and-Never-Report-the-Births... I mean, that would be an unimaginably horrid situation, but you don't just stuff the poor baby in a garbage bag under the sink! At least give the child a proper burial, and then how about some birth control once you notice a pattern???

Oh, we could go on forever, but it's just too much to handle in so few hours...time to go have some chocolate.

People Who Need to Burn

And in today's segment on "People Who Definitely Need to Go to Hell," here are infant murderers. Baby didn't do anything & wasn't even in the room when his daddy was murdered. No, Baby was in his car seat, in the car. Daddy was in the house. The #%^$#%^$# who shot him just decided to kill the baby as he was fleeing the scene. And "#%^$#%^$#" doesn't quite cover it.

Colin Farrell Is Nice; also Driving Miss Fatima

So there's a news article today about a really cool thing that Colin Farrell did for a homeless guy. He was helpful. As much of a lout as he may be, (or may have been, or at least seemed to be), this was truly heartwarming.

Also, much more importantly, Saudi women are pushing for some really radical freedom: the right to drive. GO SISTERS, GO!!! (Or more appropriately, "Vroom, Vroom!")

...Against All Enemies, Foreign and Domestic

I'm waiting for the charges of treason to be filed:

Kucinich hates the US #1

Kucinich hates the US #2

One argument AGAINST socialized medicine

It may be "free," but you don't get what the government takes your salary for:

Among other miseries: OB shortages, little attention, unnoticed life-threatening complications, being turned away from full maternity wards, no post-natal support, no pain relief, inadequate ultrasounds & screenings, overburdened midwives who can only pay you two seconds of attention... and the list goes on!

As a mom, this HORRIFIES me. I will NEVER consent to socialized medicine - it's an early death sentence for everyone!

Speaking of that big Mexico-to-Canada highway through the US

There was a horrendous accident in northern Mexico earlier today - at least 37 people are dead, and scores more injured.

Now, there are accidents frequently in the US, but they're not trucks full of dynamite.

And as of Labor Day weekend, we're letting Mexican trucks drive through the US unchecked?!?!?!

UPDATE: In continuing tracking of this article, I've found that apparently hazardous load trucks aren't included in the "free flow of traffic" (yet). GOOD.

Everything's relative, right?

What's wrong with these two items from today's news?

Drivers risk two years in jail for using their mobile phones

'[I]f you say you killed Madeleine by accident and then hid her and disposed of the body, then we can guarantee you a two-year jail sentence or even less'.

No wonder he's so certain

So Crazy Mahmoud over in Iran claims that he knows the US won't attack Iran. He has proof!

And in a totally unrelated story:

"There is an honorable butcher in our neighborhood who is aware of all the problems of the people," Ahmadinejad said, "and I also get important economic information from him."
