Douchebags of the Week!

Greetings puny Earthlings, and sorry for the light posting. Here's another dip into the wonderful world of Earthling douchebaggery!

ROD BLAGOJEVICH: Not just for being corrupt, but for being stupid and arrogant as well. He knew he was under investigation, he knew he was probably being tapped more than Madonna in 1980s, yet he still held an auction for Obama's Senate Seat.

People can understand someone being a crook, greed is a universal constant, but they can't abide being an idiot as well. And guess what, he's refusing to resign! I guess he's figuring Obama will fire US Attorney Fitzgerald and make all this go away come January, the way Clinton fired all the US Attornies to get rid of the one dogging him. And you know what, there's a good chance that will happen. Obama has a free pass from the media, and since he can't do anything but disappoint, why not go for it.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS: For taking out all words associated with Christianity and British history from their children's dictionary. Because they don't want children actually learning anything from their dictionaries that might make them resist the total collapse of their society. Classy.

THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA: They've done something, they always do.

RADICAL GAY ACTIVISTS: Not only are they engaging in a campaign of blacklisting and economic ruin against anyone who supported traditional marriage, they have now targeted the Oscars for giving a humanitarian award to Jerry Lewis for his work raising money for Muscular Dystrophy. His crime is that the used an offensive anti-gay slur twice over the past year.

Yet Sean Penn can praise, visit, and hug people like Raul Castro, and Ahmadinejad, who have actually
murdered gay people for being gay, and he's all right because he starred in Milk. Stephen Soderbergh makes a 4 hour canonization of homophobic mass murder Che Guevera, and he's given a pass, because he probably voted against Prop 8.

This is not how you win friends and influence people. Gay people have common enemies they share with the "Right Wing" Christians they're always railing against, murderous godless dictatorships, and vicious terrorist states. Maybe standing together on the whole "not killing gay people" issue, might be the common ground you need. Sure, the mainstream churches don't want to host your wedding, and some churches may try to "cure" gay people, but guess what, aside from that psycho-pseudo-Christian shit-sack Fred Phelps, they all oppose hanging gay people in arenas as half-time entertainment.

It's time to learn who are your real enemies, and who can become your allies, if you want them too.

My intellectual honesty compels me to give kudos to The Advocate magazine for actually having the stones to call Penn on it.

So remember, if you're on the list, then...


Keep watching the skies, because we're watching you.

"THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA: They've done something, they always do."

As I understand it from other blogs, both the LA Times and the Washington Post have run stories praising the man who threw his shoes at President Bush.

So far as I know, neither paper has seen fit to mention the thousands of cheering troops who have swarmed a commander-in-chief they admire.
