When Natural Disasters become political opportunities. Gawd bless ‘merica. Now if only those damned tornadoes correspond with the conventions.

Yeah, but that one strip club?
Gay.

I look forward to a touching human interest story on the stripper that just wouldn’t leave town.

“I’ve stripped here for thirty-six years and I ain’t fixin’ to miss my show just ’cause of some goddamn hurricane.”

Bigger question is who’s gonna supply the porn when Gustav disconnects the internets?

He’s just a bit sick.

On the bright side, at least Louisiana has a Republican governor this time. Although I’m sure that had absolutely nothing to do with the Fed’s slow response to Katrina.

did you guys see the fetus in the eye yet?

SayItWithWookies September 1, 2008 at 5:57 am

[re=77448]druranium[/re]: Oh, nice. It doesn’t look all that fetus-y to me. What’s more interesting is that the fetus on the right seems to be holding a bomb.

dear nra,
being a bunch of tough guys/gals you are obviously aligned with the wrong political party. a group who is more afraid that their hair dos will go limp in this weather than have commitment to our nation. a group ashamed of gwb their leader. it is suggested that you cast your vote for one of the alternative candidates.

Hurricane, schmurricane, I wanted to post on the “who’s the mama of the retarded baby, and is the father also the grandfather, or is the brother also an uncle, or how does that work, anyway?” article, but I couldn’t get in.
Popular topic.

Save the Boobies! At last, a movement I can believe in.

[re=77449]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Nice link. Thought I’d got my blathering on this up but my system’s having a regular Monday, not a vacation one, so is all cranky and hormonal.

Anyhow, see the banner ad up top on the Salon page? Baby and Child Restoration Hardware. Like, as currently in use at Wasilla records management? “I’m Sarah Palin, and I approve this hardware”.

And, this from the greatest diversion of productive energy dept:

[re=77474]DC Spring[/re]: This is my favorite flowchart of 2008

Instead of pasties they’re wearing these.

[re=77474]DC Spring[/re]: Great flowchart, until the “female galdiator” bit at the end. Liberals must maintain spelling superiority!

Never stop believing that Gawd answers all of your prayers,
but try to understand that sometimes he/she will make that
answer in the form of “No”, like when you pray for cheap gas.

It’s probably the strip club with all the fat strippers. You know, the ones that won’t be blown off their 5 inch Lucite heels by gale force winds. ‘Sturdy strippers’ we call ‘em.

It’s so much fun watching Republican show unconcealed hope for a disaster to happen in NOLA. They’re getting desperate, and God isn’t cooperating.

What happens if you cancel a convention for a disaster that never occurs?

[re=77529]Miller[/re]: Sturdy Strippers get off their heels to blow YOU!

PJ September 1, 2008 at 3:24 pm

[re=77474]DC Spring[/re]: Hmmm.

So if we stick with the premise that it is, indeed, Sarah’s baby, it’s almost as if she did everything possible to make sure the baby didn’t live.

I guess having an abortion requires you to actually make a decision and take personal responsibility for it, whereas having your water break, and then ‘postponing’ getting to a hospital for hours, knowing full well that you’re risking the baby’s life, could be interpreted by stupid people as ‘leaving it up to God?’

Makes being pro-life, seem, oh I don’t know, incredibly calculating and cruel.
