Apparently Republican IS the new gay

Yikes! They haven't even cleaned the sheets after the whole Rep. Richard Curtis scandal when the newest one rears it's ugly head. From The Smoking Gun:

Catholic school head busted in alley wearing leather, fishnets

NOVEMBER 1--Meet Paul Schum. The Kentucky man, a Catholic school principal, is facing a prostitution charge after Louisville police found him dressed like a woman and loitering in an alley Tuesday night. According to a criminal citation, a copy of which you'll find here, Schum, 50, was wearing fishnet stockings, fake breasts, and "all black leather" when officers discovered him "loitering in high drug trafficking and prostitution area." The citation notes that Schum, who heads Bethlehem High School, had "no reason for why he was in alley...dressed up in women's leather other than for prostitution." Schum, now on paid leave from his school post, is due in court on November 27 to answer a misdemeanor charge of loitering for the intent of prostitution.

Fishnets? Fake breasts? All black? They could be describing my Halloween costume! I totally need to find my camera now- a picture of me as Tina is very necessary for this post! Although when I saw the photo of the dude- I could totally hear Bobby in Dressed to Kill saying "Don't make me be a bad girl again" hehehe!! Oh how I love that movie- sure Brian De Palma is a full on pig- the whole "Hitchcock on Ruphies" thing is kinda smarmy, but definitely a guilty pleasure.

Oh well- adios until the next right winger with a wide stance is frisky!!!

Quiz Time

Take the "Hitler or Coulter Quiz" cause it's a hoot! I didn't do so well- but then again, as twisted as I have ever been- I haven't really developed a taste for the awful Fox News Channel. White House television isn't my cup of tea!

HISTORY OF HEART CHALLENGES

I know that it doesn't really say much for me that I am giddy over someone collapsing- but come on- it's Jerry "The Gays are to be blamed for EVERYTHING" Falwell!! CNN and other "news" outlets are reporting that the piece of shit was found unconscious and in "gravely serious condition"!!! They go on to quote one of his henchmen that Rev. Scumbag has a "history of heart challenges"- hmmm is that like how I don't have a BMW I have had a serious of BMW Challenges? More (good) news to follow?!

And just to get your juices flowing- here are some choice Falwell quotes!!

After the September 11, 2001, attacks Falwell said on the 700 Club, "I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen.'"

As for homosexuality, Falwell remarked, "AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals." Falwell's ghostwriter, Mel White, said Falwell remarked about gay protesters, "Thank God for these gay demonstrators. If I didn't have them, I'd have to invent them. They give me all the publicity I need."

UPDATE: Jerry Falwell has indeed shit the bed!! I would type more- but I am in a hurry to go celebrate! Seriously- I think that right about now- if his faith was correct for some crazy reason- he is getting his ass chewed out from some lower saint before being kicked downstairs for an eternity of sweating!!

Rare nod to GOP Senator

As a reasonably intelligent, caring, feeling person- I rarely find anything done by a member of the Republican party worth anything other than derision. That is why I am so happy to be able to laud one of them for their actions in DC. I am doubly pleased that it is a member of the Maine delegation to boot! I guess I should back pedal a bit. Both of Maine's senators are Republicans. Sen. Olympia Snowe and Sen. Susan Collins have each distinguished themselves from the trolls of the GOP as honest, able, and diligent public servants. Sen. Collins did a wonderful job leading the Katrina investigations- something I was thrilled to send a Thank You note for last year. And this morning I read an item on the fantastic Alternet.org website (I hit it several times a day and urge you to as well) regarding Sen. Snow. Apparently she is the third member of her party to back troop withdrawal from Iraq. She doesn't support the current Democratic resolution, but is instead sponsoring her own similar bill that would put a definite time line out there. To quote the article in the LA Times by Noam N. Levey and James Gerstenzang: Snowe is not backing a Senate Democratic plan approved last month that would require the president to begin withdrawing troops within 120 days and would set a nonbinding goal of complete withdrawal by March.

When I went to her website to get some more information about it- I read her recent vote for expanding stem cell research and was tickled! Honestly- I know that there are good Republican senators out there- the same that I know that there are very good non-molesting priests. I just get so bent out of shape by their loud asshole peers that I don't search them out. I guess in the interest of being fair and balanced- a new interest to me I might add hehehe- I wanted to take a few moments this day to raise a toast to Sen. Snowe. Keep on doing the right thing Olympia- you do this old Mainer proud!

Dick Cheney travels inside an Airstream trailer- which is inside an airplane, and airplane name "The Spirit of Strom Thurmond"- for real

I swear, if he wasn't in such a powerful position, Mr. Cheney would be one of my favorite people. Of course, in a "Holy Fuck- get a load of this crazy bastard now" kind of way. The bunker, the hunting accident, and revelations like the one at The Poor Man make me think that I am not reading the news, its just another comic book. He is like SuperEvil- almost as though some dark society had distilled the dastardly essence of histories most infamous dudes and made a DNA milkshake, impregnated some poor Mia Farrow-esque maiden and groomed Rosemary's baby to be the public face for their world domination plot. I can totally see the circle jerk in the Astral Locker Room- Goebbels, Stalin, Pol Pot, Rasputin, Mr. Burns, Simon Barsinister, Attila the Hun, Vlad the Impaler, etc- all jacking into the waiting mouth of Caligula. There really doesn't seem to be much of any other way to explain his origin hehe!

Everything that You Need to Know About the Last 6 Years

Frightening in so many ways how similar these two are:

You can win the GOP nomination without Satan's help, but it's not easy

The following is copied in total from the Borowitz Report:


I Won’t Back Gingrich, Says Satan

Former House Speaker Loses Longtime Supporter


In what many political observers consider a bruising blow to a potential 2008 White House bid by Newt Gingrich, the former Speaker of the House lost one of his longtime supporters today when Satan announced that he would not support a Gingrich candidacy.

For the normally reclusive Prince of Darkness, the decision to hold a press conference at the Washington Airport Marriott to reveal that he would not be supporting Mr. Gingrich struck many as extraordinary.

Dressed in his traditional red cape and carrying a smoldering pitchfork, Satan stated in no uncertain terms that he would be withholding his endorsement from his former colleague: “Not only am I not supporting Newt, I am giving his soul back.”

Satan’s announcement was particularly hurtful to the potential G.O.P. presidential candidate because, in the words of Gingrich supporter Tracy Klujian, “Newt and Satan have worked so closely in the past.”

According to a close associate of the Prince of Darkness, Satan’s rift with Gingrich stemmed from the former House Speaker’s decision to confess that he had had an extramarital affair with a staffer while pursuing the impeachment of then-President Bill Clinton for having an extramarital affair with a staffer.

“The fact that Newt confessed it to Jerry Falwell really ticked Satan off,” the Satan aide said.

Gingrich supporter Klujian remains hopeful, however, that the breach between the two infernal colleagues can somehow be mended: “You can win the G.O.P. nomination without Satan’s help, but it’s not easy.”

Elsewhere, President Bush kept expectations low for his tour of Latin America, telling reporters, “I never got good grades in Latin.”
