Maybe there is a Santa Claus afterall......

While surfing Al Gore's invention, I ran across this article in the WSJ. Although the article states that Brother Harry Reid is in an uphill re-election bid, it really doesn't give any specifics other than he has a low approval rating and a high disapproval rating. Still, it would be really nice if the people of Nevada gave him his walking papers so that he could be called as a LDS Church mission president. I'm sure the country would be better off without him in office.

Thanks to our European "friends"

After many years asking, the Europeans are now saying that they will consider taking some of the Gitmo detainees, which would enable the US to close the place. President Bush has often asked them to do the same thing, they always seem to have excuses why they couldn't. What a difference an election makes. Now that the Chosen One who will heal the oceans and bring balance to the earth has been elected, the are only to happy to oblige. Nothing like having "friends" who will help you out in a jam.

Et Tu, Jerry?

Jerry "Moonbeam" Brown, the current California Attorny General, has decided that doing his job and representing the interests of the people of California is to hard, so he has decided to jump on the "Prop. 8 is unconstituional" bandwagon and argue that it should be overturned before the California Supreme Court. Well, what would you have expected him to do anyway? He's a liberal and you can't trust a liberal to do their job or even the right thing.

His reasoning is rather novel, in a "Catch 22" so of way. Since the right to marry is a, according to him, a "fundamental right", the constitution of California does not allow "fundamental rights" to be removed by the amendment process.

Ergo, in general, the way to change the constitution of the state of California is by amendment, except when removing a "fundamental right". Therefore, if the Supreme Court of California deems that beastiality is a "fundamental right" (don't laugh, they are loopy enough to do that), then any laws against beastiality are unconstitutional and you cannot change that in the constitution even by the amendment process. So, no matter what the issue, if the un-elected members of the California Supreme Court, through their wiz-dumb deem that something is a "fundamental right", you cannot change it. Right now, California is having problems balancing it's budget because in order to raise taxes, you need a 2/3 majority in the state legislature to raise taxes thanks to another amendment to the state constitution, Prop. 13. When are members of the going to declare paying taxes a "fundamental right" and invalidate this amendment?

Whatever the outcome, this will probably hit the US Supreme Court and the moral of the story is to get out of California as soon as possible since the place is run by idiots.

What if there was a boycott than nobody noticed?

To show just how important gays are to the US economy (therefore, we should let them marry), this Wednesday will be national "Call in Gay" day. On that day, gays everywhere are urged to not go to work and not spend any money so all us uncaring, religious bigots can see what happens if gays don't show up for work and don't spend any money (so you better let us marry or else!). I say let them do their boycott. Except for certain large cities on both coasts of the US, it will go unnoticed in the rest of the country. Of course, it will be hailed as a complete and total success by gay activists and be reported as such by the MSM which will show everyone else just how many gays there really are in the US (not many) and just how much clout they really have in the rest of the country (not much). This is just another loopy way of protesting what liberals can't get at the ballot box. Darn you uncaring, religious bigots!

Like men lecturing women on the pain of child birth

Apparently, the editors/writers of Obamaweek, oops, Newsweek think that they are biblical scholars since they now think that can lecture about the meaning of the Bible when it comes to gay marriage. This may make gay marriage supporters happy, but anyone who has actually read the Bible knows that Newsweek has either 1) misinterpreted the scriptures or 2) is just plain stupid. You take your pick. I can't wait for their hard-hitting expose on how childbirth is nothing more than a few cramps.
