So, that's how it must look for those slow-headed, soft-brained neocons, huh?

Funny stuff. I really like when they start screaming at one another. Seriously. You know you've hit rock bottom when Geraldo is scolding you for your lack of journalistic integrity.

Pedo-crazed parents call father a "pervert" for photographing his own children at a park

I'm a single, childless amateur photographer whose house is half a block away from an elementary school. It's pretty much only a matter of time for me to get some knocks on the door or the neighbors take up torches and pitchforks and run me out of town.

iPhone line-waiter strikes back at jackass TV reporter

July 14, 2008 11:29am

I think local news these days actually spends a grand total of three minutes actually reporting the news in every broadcast.

But yeah. Your buddy was right. The guy was a total jackass, and he probably could have asked more relevant questions. Instead, he just wanted to waste his time being an annoying asshat asking vapid and pointless questions which no one really cared about.

But, his hair sure looked nice.

Bigoted Ford dealership isn't actually sorry for its non-Christians "should sit down and shut up" ads

May 31, 2008 5:58pm

For a guy who doesn't attend a church, he sure has that whole bigoted, redneck, cowardly Christian act down pretty well.

I wonder if the folks at Ford will do the right thing and remove their affiliation with this maniac and his self-righteous nonsense. At this point, however, he seems to be milking that whole "there's no such thing as bad publicity" thing.

Farewell, Harvey Korman

May 31, 2008 4:37pm

I think I will always remember how mind-shreddingly hilarious it was whenever Harvey Korman and Tim Conway got together and tried to crack each other up while also trying not to laugh. How many times did you see tears on one or both of their faces during a sketch?

Even thinking about some of them now just makes me laugh.

One of the best comedy duos ever.

Goodnight, funny man. Thank you for the laughs.

Do they teach these sorts of hollow apologies in the Bible? I've heard this exact apology from any number of god-soaked, hate-mongering, pseudo-Christian gasbags.

Ford dealership uses bigoted radio ads to sell cars

May 26, 2008 6:41am

Actually, I think this guy is just setting himself up for the inevitable collapse most small car dealerships will face with the economy and the price of gas being what they are.

Now, when his business folds, he can blame it all on Christian persecution.

Brilliant!

As an atheist, I like it. In fact, I want to walk in there with a fat wad of my evil, godless money to see if these Christian nutbags have the conviction and faith to not sell me a car.

Then again, there's a pretty good chance I'd be stuck with a freakin' Ford.

January 27, 2008 6:17am

I think that this demonstrates not only the sheer crippling stupidity of these gomers, but it's also a great display of the typical cowardice of these racist morons?

It's actually somewhat funny in that they just don't seem to have the conviction to stand by their twisted beliefs, and subsequently have to contrive these silly, misguided euphemisms.

December 19, 2007 9:44am

Nothing sickens or tires me more than these pseudo-Christian zealots and their relentless pursuit to throw away the Constitution and transform America into some sort of perverted theocracy.

In light of that, I think this is obviously set-up to send a message to the gesticulating hordes of Evangelical loonies out there. I think Bush did much the same with his dropping of little keywords here and there. They're a lot like teenage boys watching scrambled soft-core porn on late-night Cinemax, and they get quite excited and relieved when a little blur is deciphered.

Ah well... Perhaps someday presidential candidates won't be required to undergo a religious test so as to become leader. Maybe we should have that sort of thing written into our Constitution.

First-person account of CIA torture survivor

December 14, 2007 11:33pm

How many more of these accounts do we need to hear before Americans shake the crippling fear from their shoulders and take this country back?

How can anyone see these goings on as a positive thing for either America's image or America's security? How many more victims of this inhumanity do we have to hear of before we realize that we are the enemy?

I wish it would end, Cory. And, I wish I didn't have to live in a nation so evil, so gutless and so foolish. This is not my America, and I sure as hell can't imagine anyone with even an ounce of humanity who could say honestly that they are proud of this nation.

We should be ashamed.

So, in light of that, it's clear at least someone is learning something from that collection of mindless gibberish at Conservapedia.

Fox News Porn - the prurience of prigs

November 17, 2007 10:49am

#6 posted by tsol , November 17, 2007 9:08 AM

This is cute. Meanwhile, CNN actively distorted the Democratic debates in order to favor Hillary Clinton.

I can't wait to read about it here

I just have to ask: What does your outburst have to do with Fox "News" broadcasting soft-core porn? Or, are you just thinking that by attacking CNN, you're going to somehow make Fox look better in spite of their obvious hypocrisy? Are you expecting us to overlook Fox for its blatant hypocrisy while condemning CNN for something which is absolutely irrelevant to this discussion?

I love the Fox defenders' response to this story. It's like a bus-load of zombies tipped over on the expressway, and they're now just sort of wandering around aimlessly looking for something to jump on in pursuit of some tasty brains. Unfortunately, all their potential targets are in fast-moving cars, and the poor uninformed zombies have been reduced to just bouncing off the windshield as reality passes them by quickly.

Poor zombies...

Fox News Porn - the prurience of prigs

November 17, 2007 8:29am

Remember when Fox "News" broadcast that embattled congress-critter Foley was a Democrat?

I find it spectacularly funny to think that someone out there can actually believe that Fox "News" is somehow above being questioned when it's been proven, time and time again, that the network would openly broadcast blatant partisan lies rather than report the verifiable truth. Indeed, the most basic principles of journalism and information gathering are comically anathema to the folks at Fox.

Fox has built an empire as a result of appealing to the most base human emotions: Desire and hate. Fox has proven time and time again that they are not above lying so as to bolster their partisan agenda, so why should anyone be surprised that they broadcast soft-core porn in between their senseless partisan hit-jobs to keep their addlepated viewers watching?

I do pity the Fox viewers for the simple reason that it's only a matter of time before they find themselves grappling with a reality for which they are woefully unprepared as a result of being sold this shiny, golden turd of misinformation for so long.

Archibishop of Mozambique: condoms and HIV cocktails will give you AIDS

October 1, 2007 7:29am

What does this Catholic Bishop care about colonization? He's sold his people to a Western religion, so if anything, he's part of the problem, and he's definitely the last person qualified to prattle on about protecting the indigenous cultures of Africa from colonization.

As for his paranoid ramblings about the HIV crisis in Africa, it's typical religious lunacy. To these fools, there's a threat around every corner, and even when one doesn't exist, they simply make up some hobgoblin to keep their foolish beliefs relevant so as to maintain control of the population.

Personally, I think the world would be a happier place if ALL religions just shut up for a few centuries.

New AT&T terms of service: We'll cut off your Internet connection for criticizing us

September 29, 2007 11:19am

I just want to go on record as wholeheartedly endorsing the actions of AT&T. Without them and their tireless efforts to protect innocent Americans, our nation would crumble beneath the never-ending onslaught of terrah and terrahism.

Thank you AT&T. Please do not cut off my service.

Aside from that, why are you here, JOEH? This isn't the freakin' dentist, ya know.
