Shits & Giggles

From the Winston Salem Urinal:

"House criticizes Senate's tax cut for the rich" is the headline. This is the NC state budget, and it will eliminate an upper-income tax bracket for $200,00 a year earners. It will also tax candy, increase cigarette tax eight-fold and cut $53 million from the Medicaid for the blind, old and disabled.

How freakin' dare they? Oh, I forgot to mention - that's the Democrat-controlled Senate that passed this budget.

A woman Army General, Janis Karpinski, has been reduced in rank to Colonel by President Bush as an outcome of Abu Ghraib investigations. Of course, she's a scapegoat - just ask her!

I see where Col David Hackworth died in Tijuana, Mexico, of bladder cancer. There has got to be a story there, but I'm not gonna touch it!

Pat Oliphant is his usual subtle self today. This Lib/Dem/Soc/Commie "cartoonist" today has a group of angry apes with axes going through PBS. A woman who appears to be a secretary (sexist stereotyping?) is on the phone saing, "Mr Moyers, some conservative gentlemen to see you - something about balance and liberal bias." Can you say Fucked In The Head, boys & girls? Good! I knew you could!

Former Army Drill Sergeant Earl Richmond Jr. went to sleep last night - and I'm giving 20-1 that he don't wake up. This former human dirtball murdered, tortured and raped a 24 year-old woman soldier, the same to a 27 year old woman - oh, and by the way murdered that woman's eight year-old son and seven year-old daughter.

Finally (for now), there's a story about a house fire last night. The house is described as follows, "The house is a 1 1/2-story brick structure with blue siding about a quarter-mile down a gravel path from the road." I want to know what the blue siding is doing a quarter mile down the path? And since the story goes on to say the house was demolished, wouldn't it be more accurate to start that quote, "The house was ..."??
