Stupid Sniper Tricks

From International Herald Tribune comes this bit of stupidity.

An American soldier used a Koran, the Islamic holy book, for target practice in an area west of Baghdad, prompting an apology from the U.S. military.

The next time some wingnut tells you that Islam is a religion of hate ask them if just maybe they would be pissed off if they saw video of a member of the Iranian military taking target practice on a copy of the King James Version.

Oh, right, that is different isnt it

Silly me

Ana Marie Cox -- Journalist?

From Bloggingheads.tv

Ana Marie Cox is now a very serious journalist .. except for the fact that she is completely in the bag for John McCain. On the plus side .. she fully admits it.

The big picture

From Instaputz

Grow the fuck up. You don't penalize an entire country simply because your preferred candidate did not get nominated.

Kinda sums up my thoughts on the matter too. Any Democrat that is seriously thinking about voting for McCain should check themselves into the nearest psych ward because they have obviously become unhinged and are a danger to themselves and others.
