(Petunia and Pals) Today’s topic: Terror TeeVee with Michelle Malkkkin!
- Virginia is for Lovers - It’s finally 1967 in Virginia, as they remove a law that forbade people from living together. The GOP opposed it, natch, because: Gay. But to sweeten the deal–I’m only guessing–it removes the part about “lewdly and lasciviously associating” with a partner outside of marriage a crime, too, so the GOP (Newticles and Callista? Yes.) got something out of it. (Metro Weekly)
- Will he or won’t he? - The Kenyan Usurper will not say whether his administration will weigh in on the challenge to California’s Proposition 8 marriage amendment that is before the Supreme Court. (BuzzFeed)
- Nutty Senator is Nuts - Newly elected nutty Senator Ted Cruz says that The Kenyan secretly wants immigration reform to fail so that he can use it as a wedge issue in 2014, 2016, and INTO THE FUTURE! Which of course is why Cruz is opposed to immigration reform? Yes. (Dallas News)
- Bonus Track! -
Aside from the nuttiness of the question, strict constructionalist Chuck “I Am Not A Nail” Grassley cites the implied right to privacy that underpins Roe V. Wade as the reason that his constituents will not be micro-chipped. Whoopsie! (Think Progress)
Think they know the diff ‘tween Terror TV and Terrible TV?
The questioner has more need to worry about his right to privacy being enforced, vis-à-vis being turfed out in the alley, rather than worrying about anyone wasting so much as a microchip (even a potato chip) on him.
