- Words are hard, cont. - Notable S.A.T. failure from Tennessee Diane Black says that President Carebear’s recess appointment of Richard Cordray to head the Consumer Protection Agency is patently illegal because Congress is still in (pro forma) session. Black then continues to state that, “I hope the House considers my resolution as soon as we return to Washington so we can send a message to President Obama.” (Raw Story)
- Retracting the retraction - Earlier today notable right-wing gossip rag Politico reported that infamous staff-banging serial-adulterer Newt Gingrich was going to back off attacking Willard’s career as a vulture capitalist, you know, for the good of the party. Anyway, it seems that Newticles is going to do his own slash and burn march to the sea. (Beltway Confidential)
- Speaking of Newticles - The thrice-married staff-banging, serial-adulterer and noted Catholic theologian spoke today in South Carolina:
The challenge we have is anti-Christian bigotry that has forced the Catholic Church to close its adoption service in Massachusetts because it actually wanted to follow the tenets of Christianity. And you look all all around this country and you see again and again, whether its a judge knocking down a cross… I am your President, if you help me win this election, we will not tolerate a speech dictatorship in this country against Christianity.
What the hell is a speech dictatorship?
Why does that guy have a pantyliner stuck to his lapel?
WTF is “a speech dictatorship”? Does he mean, censorship? That won’t be tolerated in the country where his supportors whip themselves into a froth every time someone says “damn!” on the teevee. What is wrong with his brain/mouth connection?
What do you mean the Church couldn’t provide its services if it wasn’t sucking from the government teat? What about free market and all that stuff?
Why would the Boston Catholic Church waste what little money it has on keeping their orphanages open after their Pedophile Ring was shut down in 2002? Makes no sense.
The “Defend Us Christians” ploy is one of Newt’s strong points; it’s a double-edged sword, cutting both that Faux Christian Romney and that Muslim Imposter What’s-His-Name Obama.
The Boston diocese may have shut down the orphanages because the money’s needed for all the damages resulting from their pedophiles.
