Another shameful attempt by the U.S government (under President Bush) to try and divert the public from the truth. The more disturbing fact is that they would knowingly expose the soldiers serving their country to these toxic chemicals.

There again, why should I even think that they would have anyone's best interest in mind. F.E.M.A. had no problems throwing people in those toxic trailers after Hurricane Katrina.

A newly leaked military document appears to show the Pentagon knowingly exposed US troops to toxic chemicals that cause cancer, while publicly downplaying the risks exposure might cause.

The document, written by an environmental engineering flight commander in December of 2006 and posted on Wikileaks (PDF) on Tuesday, details the risks posed to US troops in Iraq by burning garbage at a US airbase. It enumerates myriad risks posed by the practice and identifies various carcinogens released by incinerating waste in open-air pits.

Because of the difficulties in testing samples, investigators could not prove that chemicals exceeded military exposure guidelines. But a military document released last December found that chemicals routinely exceeded safe levels by twice to six times.

Chris Rock's views on politics in America.

An asshole – that would be my first response if I were being confronted by Republican senator David Vitter of Louisiana.

The Republican senator who found himself on a DC madam's client list is drawing new attention over "impulse control."

After missing a flight last Thursday from Washington to New Orleans,
Louisiana Sen. David Vitter opened an armed security door and went off on a United Airlines employee, according to a report filed Wednesday by Roll Call.

The door sounded a security alarm.

Vitter had arrived at the gate for a flight from Dulles Airport, only to find that the door had been closed twenty minutes prior to departure.

After setting off the security alarm, the Louisiana senator proceeded to dress down an airline employee who told him entering the restricted area was forbidden. He invoked his standing as a senator, delivering a "do-you-know-who-I-am" tirade, the paper said.

Way to be a real fucking prick Senator Vitter.

Here is a video of Senator Vitter on the sanctity of marriage.



How do you feel again about the sanctity of marriage?



You keep it classy Senator Vitter. Stay "Hard" at work when you are banging prostitutes while protecting the sanctity of marriage!

This week's winner is: Chuck Norris

Chuck has gone from a bad acting, pseudo ass-kicking vigilante in such commercials shit balls as Delta Force and Walker: Texas Ranger to secessionist as he is nominating himself for President of Texas.

The call by some right wing leaders for rebellion and for the military to refuse the commander in chief’s orders is joined by Chuck Norris who claims that thousands of right wing cell groups have organized and are ready for a second American Revolution. During an appearance on the Glen Beck radio show he promised that if things get any worse from his point of view he may “run for president of Texas.” The martial artist/actor/activist claims that Texas was never formally a part of the United States in the first place and that if rebellion is to come through secession Texas would lead the way.

Rep. Zack Wamp (R) of Tennessee taking a page out of the Newt Gingrich playbook on President Obama's plan to reform healthcare in the United States.

There's not a lot I can say about this clip that Rep. Wamp doesn't say. He simply starts speaking and instantly the "I'm a regressive thinking fucking asshole" light starts flashing.

Notice he accuses President Obama of class warfare before he claims that having healthcare in America is a "privilege".

My good friend Dr. S of Redsoxville has a weekly forum entitled "Douchebag of the Week." I am following in the footsteps of the great Dr. S in creating my own weekly forum titled "Dumbass of the Week"

"Dumbass of the Week" will target those people who make headlines for doing exactly at the headline dictates.

This weeks winner is: Acea Schomaker of Lincoln, Nebraska


Mr. Schomaker decided to calm his girlfriends hyperactive cat by shoving it into a makeshift bong and then smoking marijuana with the cat trapped inside.

Mr. Schomaker did this not once, not twice, but three times and he claims that he never intended to hurt the cat.

Lancaster County sheriff's deputies responding to a domestic disturbance at the residence ticketed the 20-year-old Schomaker on suspicion of misdemeanor animal cruelty Sunday after catching him smoking marijuana from a boxlike contraption that had the cat stuffed inside its 12-inch by 6-inch base.

Even though this is the first week it was a tough competition to take the title of "Dumbass of the Week." However there is an Honorable Mention for this week's runner-up.

And the runner-up is: Latreasa Goodman of McNugget 9-1-1 Fame


A Florida woman was charged with misusing the 911 emergency system after police say she called 911 three different times to report what she thought was an emergency: A McDonalds Chicken McNugget meltdown.

Latreasa Goodman, 27, ordered a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets meal on Saturday night in Fort Pierce, Fla., but then she was told that the restaurant was out of McNuggets. The restaurant offered another item from the menu, but would not refund her money due to store policy. Goodman called 911 to report the incident. "I called 911 because I couldn't get a refund, and I wanted my McNuggets," she is quoted as saying in the police report.

When police explain to Goodman that this was not an emergency situation, she replied: "This is an emergency. If I would have known they didn't have McNuggets, I wouldn't have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don't want one."

Here is the link to the actual 9-1-1 calls.

Last night David Letterman must not have found Katie Couric to be a very enlightening interviewee which caused him to go into a rant against the fat bag o' shit conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh. Good job Dave!
