Harry Reid to step down?
There's speculation today that Harry Reid is reaching out to Hillary Clinton to take over his position as the Democratic leader (either Majority or Minority) in the Senate.
The analysis I've read so far is that Reid thinks he can be more effective out of the limelight and that Reid "apparently prefers 'whipping' the Party from behind and the side rather than serving as commander-in-chief on the Senate floor."
Really. Maybe the real reason is because the limelight is causing Reid's approval rating to fall rather dramatically . That's the problem of a true blue agenda in a red state...the voters don't like it.
This could be fun...

AP: Marine sergeant sues Rep. John P. Murtha
A Marine Corps sergeant under investigation in connection with the deaths of 24 Iraqi civilians in Haditha is accusing Rep. John P. Murtha of defaming him in public comments about the case.
...and after consulting with his attorneys, he says what he meant to say was "Bush did it."
Washington's other newspaper: Murtha Denies Libeling Marine
Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.) said he does not blame a Marine for "lashing out" against him by filing a defamation lawsuit yesterday, but the congressman said his comments about the questionable killings of two dozen civilians in Haditha, Iraq, were merely meant to attack the nation's strategy in the war.
That's what I call a real cowardly "mutha"...

* Huh? Don't get my obscure self-referential reference? Look here.
HOLY CRAP! It seems I really DO get mail from Michael Fumento...
Hmmm...I wonder what would happen if I keep mentioning Mel Gibson? I apologize for the skepticism, but that is the price one pays here in Bloggerdom. If you could read the kind of e-mail I get, you'd wonder why a real author with a real reputation would notice my idiot blog. At least you don't send me five thousand word screed proving the Catholic Church is the antichrist, and for that I thank you. The intelligent conversation you provide me is pure gravy. I am not, after all, claiming scientists are a monolithic leftist mob like the news media, where 90% vote one way and one way only. Such a thing isn't necessary to nudge laymen's beliefs in the desired direction.
Anyway, it started here. And then digressed to this point.
And now, in reply, I received the following missive.
fumento said:
It wasn't "people" pretending to be me; it was me. You're wrong for one very simple reason: There is no such thing as "the scientific community." There's no community, just a bunch of scientists with vastly different views on almost every area of science you can mention. If you read some of my stem cell pieces you'd find lots of quotes from lots of scientists saying ESCs are not needed. How does that fit into your community? Moreover, some are religiously opposed to the use of ESCs, such as David Hess. Again -- poof! -- no community.
Wow. Being taken seriously is a serious burden for Your Humble Servant, kiddies. Let's see how I handled it in my reply.
For what it is worth, I thought "The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS" was an excellent book.
But...
Is there really no such thing as a scientific community? Are there no shared goals, no common interests, no similar likes and dislikes among people of similar social and educational backgrounds? Do not scientists congregate together and join scientific organizations? You are straining the bounds of credulity.
All one needs is a few dedicated ideologues willing to
bully the community into line. If Lenin and a handful of Bolsheviks can succeed beyond anyone's expectations, is it really surprising the American Psychological Association can declare homosexuality suddenly nonexistent with nary a peep of protest to be heard?
Again, the question is not the relative numbers of real
scientists and those who use science merely to advance their political agendas. The question is will those with the most to lose from the corruption of science do enough restore its reputation?
Regardless of whether I have any clue or not, don't you
think science and scientists would be better off if they did behave as if they were part of a community, looking out for one another, policing the bad guys, and keeping the place tidy, helpful, and friendly to any non-scientists who may
happen by?
God Bless Frank Melton.
The melanin-rich mayor of Jackson, Mississippi now must battle the commie creeps of the ACLU as well as the many disorganized criminals who threaten to destroy his fair city.
Hey, ACLU! Why you tryin' to keep a brother down?
The Biloxi Sun Herald: ACLU accuses mayor of profiling
Jackson, MS - The national American Civil Liberties Union on Tuesday accused Mayor Frank Melton of racial profiling, the latest criticism of the black city leader who is on an unorthodox crusade to stem crime in this capital city.
"Unorthodox" is mediaspeak for the lock-up-the-bad-guys method of crime fighting.
The ACLU, during a news conference outside City Hall, said it also was investigating alleged civil rights violations committed by Melton and law enforcement officers.
King Downing, ACLU national racial profiling coordinator, said the allegations are based on complaints of people being pulled over on the basis of their race and searched without probable cause.
Ladies and germs, Fyodor salutes the Shilpit Wee Nyaff * of the Day, King "Ding Dong" Downing!
"For me to leave my office and come into one of the states means that there is a very serious problem," said Downing, who is based in New York. "There are problems here that it's going to take the attention of the nation in order to solve."
Instant translation: Since the bumpkins of Jackson support the man they elected to do the job, we have to import left-fascist thugs and busybodies from New York to intimidate the rubes into obeying their moral and intellectual superiors.
Downing said the mayor's race should make him "more sensitive to the problems this is creating."
He is, you fiend. Black men know all too well the horror of brother killing brother. Mayor Melton has the stones to do something about it.
He shouldn't be persecuted by your shyster hitmen. He should be given a medal.
Melton said he wasn't interested in the ACLU's complaints against him or the police and denied he had violated anyone's civil rights.
AMEN! Can a brother get a witness?
"We have 26 people that have been killed in Jackson this year. We have 300,000 people killed across America each year. The majority of them are African-American and it's time to do something different," Melton said. "I want to know what the ACLU wants to do besides criticize. Besides that, the hell with them."
Amen to all that, Brother Melton!
And don't worry, chances are excellent those ACLU sons-of-whores are hellbound.

Minnesota gets tough on white man's crack.
Winona Daily News: Meth offenders will get unwelcome exposure
Minnesota is rolling out another tool to fight methamphetamine: an Internet offender registry.
Gov. Tim Pawlenty directed state agencies Thursday to have a new Web site up and running by year's end that will post details on meth offenders, similar to the registries containing information on sex offenders.
Minnesota follows Tennessee and Illinois in creating a site to raise awareness about people convicted of making, selling or transporting the addictive drug.The site will include birth dates, conviction information and eventually photos of meth offenders. It won't have addresses.
That's good. Meth heads won't be able to use the website to find dealers in their neighborhoods, but...
``When the public is aware that somebody like that is in their neighborhood, they keep a more watchful eye, they organize and that elevates the level of awareness and hopefully public safety,'' Pawlenty said.
...Uh...Citizen Pawlenty? How exactly will the good folks of Minnesota know precisely where the meth makers are?

San Diego Union-Tribune: Card-playing chimp nixed from tourney
The stunt to get a poker Web site free publicity and Mikey, a 4-year-old chimpanzee, a spot in the upcoming World Series of Poker in Las Vegas ended with the primate being denied registration, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
“He will not be registered, nor will he play,” said Gary Thompson, spokesman for the World Series of Poker. “We are not letting any chimpanzees in. It would be cruel to the chimpanzee and unfair to our players.”
Instant Translation: Either chimps are smarter than his human players or he realizes if the cards fall the right way, Mikey could actually win.
Pokershare.net was ready to contribute the entry fee, $10,000, for Mikey to play in the main event. Mikey was taught how to play Texas Hold 'em by his owner, Judie Harrison, who said she would use any money won by Mikey to build a retirement sanctuary for the chimpanzee.
Mikey has been trained to recognize colors and shapes and wear a green poker visor and sunglasses. But the Humane Society of the United States and the Jane Goodall Institute condemned the idea.
What a bunch of fun-killing losers! It would serve them right if Mikey said screw the whole Retirechimp Home idea and spent all his winnings on hookers and booze!

KMBC: Man Arrested In Stolen Fudge Case
Police have arrested a man accused of robbing a popular candy store.
Bryan Schoonover, 32, was arrested over the weekend.
Police said Schoonover is the man captured on video surveillance robbing Laura's Little Chocolates earlier this month. The man was wearing underwear on his head. He took cash and eight pounds of fudge.

WIS-TV: Elderly man charged in shooting of North Carolina paramedic
A 68-year-old man is facing a felony assault charge after allegedly shooting a Madison County, North Carolina, paramedic while she was helping him out of a car.
Tami Stephen of Yancey County was shot once in the chest with a .22-caliber pistol late Sunday night. She's in serious condition at Mission Hospitals in Asheville.
Joseph Boyer Candler Junior of Wolf Laurel is charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill or inflict serious injury. He's in the Madison County jail in lieu of $750,000 bond.
Emergency workers responding to a call from Wolf Laurel Country Club found that a man identified as Candler was intoxicated. His wife asked emergency workers to help her get him to their house.
Authorities say while he was being helped out of the vehicle, Candler pulled a pistol from his pants pocket and shot Stephen. A volunteer fireman grabbed the gun and restrained Candler before any more shots could be fired.

AFP: Shock-rocker Alice Cooper to build Christian youth center
Shock-rock grandaddy Alice Cooper, best known for his macabre stage antics and songs about hell and booze, is helping build a Christian youth center in Arizona, his foundation announced here.
Cooper's Solid Rock Foundation is to develop a three million dollar center for teenagers at Grand Canyon University, a non-denominational Christian center of higher learning in Phoenix, according to a statement by the foundation, a Christian nonprofit group.
The 20,000-square-foot (1,858 square meter) project, nicknamed "The Rock," will offer after-school programs and special events for area youth.
The site "is designed to provide a safe and fun place for area teens to gather and participate in program activities that will make a difference in their lives," the statement read.
The foundation's "primary goal is to honor Christ by helping to meet the spiritual, economical, physical, and social needs of teenagers and children within our community," a statement from the foundation website read.
Cooper, 58, is one of the godfathers of American hard rock. His stage acts, often inspired by horror movies, included using outlandish makeup, liters of fake blood, and often a live boa constrictor.
Born Vincent Furnier, Cooper is married, a father, and also an avid golfer and a great admirer of Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue.
What red-blooded man doesn't worship the ground upon which Kylie Minogue walks? (Coming soon to The King Abdullah Gazette!)

Just in case you are wondering what exactly Catholics believe, here is
The Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting. Amen.
Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession,was left unaided.Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins my Mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful; O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy clemency hear and answer me. Amen.
St. Joseph, her most chaste spouse, pray for us.
Anima Christi
Soul of Christ, sanctify me; Body of Christ, save me; Blood of Christ, inebriate me; Water from Christ's side, wash me; Passion of Christ, strengthen me; O good Jesus, hear me; Within Thy wounds hide me; Suffer me not to be separated from Thee; From the malicious enemy defend me; In the hour of my death call me; And bid me come unto Thee; That I may praise Thee with Thy saints and with Thy angels Forever and ever. Amen.
Prayer to St. Anthony, Martyr of Desire
Dear St. Anthony, you became a Franciscan with the hope of shedding your blood for Christ. In God's plan for you, your thirst for martyrdom was never to be satisfied. St. Anthony, Martyr of Desire, pray that I may become less afraid to stand up and be counted as a follower of the Lord Jesus. Intercede also for my other intentions. (Name them.)
Prayer To Saint Michael The Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the divine power, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
Prayer to End Abortion
Lord God, I thank You today for the gift of my life, and for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part to end abortion. Today I commit myself never to be silent, never to be passive, and never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement, and never stop defending life until all my brothers and sisters are protected and our nation once again becomes a nation with liberty and justice, not just for some, but for all. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Prayer For Vocations
Send forth your Spirit, Lord, into the hearts of your faithful people, that we may be conscious of our vocation to holiness and sevice to others. Grant that many of us may dedicate ourselves to You through the priesthood and the religious life.We pray especially for the needs of our own parish and diocese. Grant that we may always have sufficient good and holy priests, and dedicated Sisters to serve our commumities.We pray, too, for religious orders; that generous men may join them to become zealous missionaries in preaching the Gospel in word and action, especially to the poor and abandoned.We make this prayer through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.
Selig's PC thugs whack the Chorizo!
Chicago Tribune: Adios, Chorizo . . . until next year
Major League Baseball has put the Chorizo back in the freezer. The league had granted the Brewers a special dispensation allowing the character to participate in last Saturday's Sausage Race as part of Cerveceros Day at Miller Park, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Baseball has strict rules for clubs that want to introduce a new mascot, uniform or logo change, including a waiting period of generally 12 to 18 months.
So mark Chorizo on the physically-unable-to-perform list until next year's home opener after a slew of national publicity following his unveiling--and third-place finish.

Did you ever wonder what passes for civilized debate among the wasteoids of the fascist left?
Netroots vs. Rightroots;
left-wingers love blackface
By Michelle Malkin · August 02, 2006 11:36 AM
With so much breaking news in the Middle East, I've been neglecting politics on the homefront. So, here are a few links and asides on a few noteworthy campaign developments on both sides of the aisle:
The netroots/nutroots are putting their proverbial eggs in the Ned Lamont basket. They are pulling out all the stops with ad hominen attacks on Sen. Joe Lieberman. Don Lambro looks at the uncivil war faced by pro-Iraq war Democrats. Ian Schwartz has the Lamont-Colbert video. Look at the Photoshop that unhinged Jane Hamsher has posted of Sen. Lieberman at the Huffington Post:
Update - Here's a reminder of the last time a liberal blogger published a Photoshop with blackface... (They did the same to Michael Steele in Maryland. - F.G.)
Meanwhile, "ImpeachPAC" is playing the Nazi card against Lieberman--essentially blaming his support for the war for an infiltration of skinheads into the US military.
Oy vey. I am certain Joe's big with the Aryan Nation crowd.
Lamont is a millionaire with money to burn. This piece reports he "has now given $3 million of his own money to his campaign and has increased his TV advertising for the final two weeks." Like so many wealthy Dem elites, he's spending much of that money trying to convince voters he's a..."populist." He's also whining about criticism of his membership in an exclusive private club. He calls the scrutiny "dirty politics."
In the Right corner of the blogosphere, there's a Rightroots effort underway to counter the insanity. John Hawkins has all the details and a slate of candidates is here. Ed Morrissey reports on fund-raising efforts so far and a challenge from Rep. Jack Kingston. Lorie Byrd at Wizbang has more.
I can guarantee you there will be no blackface Photoshopping on our side.

About Me
- TheChurchMilitant
- First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
