Have Mercy, Child. Get Yourself Together.

Ann Coulter used to the craziest Republican woman I knew.

But, this one takes the cake.  I was watching live last night and wanted to come through the screen and grab her and get that woman some estrogen and IQ points.

I know, I know, dammit, I know I should not take this personally, but women have worked too hard against the stereotype of victimized screaming histronic damfools.

 

When you can’t argue the facts, blame the messenger.

Fairbanks, Alaska’s Father Sean P. Thompson has got himself in a bit of a pickle.

He got arrested for DUI.  He was stopped by state troopers for speeding and erratic driving.

But, it doesn’t end here.  No, sireee, whoopee.

Screen Shot 2014-03-27 at 2.33.39 PMBitz asked if he was carrying any weapons, the complaint said. Thomson reported a .357-caliber handgun in the back seat but not a 9mm pistol he carried in his back pocket, Bitz said. Another pocket revealed a bag with a small quantity of marijuana, Bitz said.

Thomson blew into a hand-held breath alcohol test machine and it recorded a breath-alcohol content of .247 percent, Bitz said. The legal standard for intoxication is .08 percent.

It appears he was triple drunk, which means there will be no communion wine at the parish for a looooong time, had enough weapons to take on a small country or several large bears, and was stoned out of his mind.

Unless he’s the reincarnation of Hunter Thompson, he’s got some ‘splainin’ to do.

Thanks to Dean in Alaska for the heads up.

Fun With Guns: There’s Dumb and Then There’s Real Special Dumb

Norridgewick, Maine and it’s damn time that Maine shows up here.

Michael Smith got woke up on a Tuesday morning by a tree removal company in his front yard.  He walked shirtless out on the front porch and hollered at them to get off his property.

A little while later the police rewaken Michael.  The tree removal people thought Michael had threatened them with a weapon.

No, he was was just threatening his winkie.

I guess a heart with “Mother” in it didn’t appeal to him.

Thanks to Rick for the heads up.

Holy Crap: Texas Diversity Edition

March 27, 2014 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, so a guy in Sherman, Texas, has been writing and sending out the company newsletter every morning for eight years.  No complaints. Jef Mindrup was a good employee and faithfully did his job.

Until suddenly one day out of the blue, Jef is ordered by his boss to include a Bible verse in each morning newsletter.

On March 14, 2012, company co-founder Jody Goodman, a member of the board and vice president of staffing, corporate travel and diversity, no less, ordered him “to add Bible quotes to The Morning Coffee and to start doing so the next day,” Mindrup says in the complaint.

Jef felt uncomfortable doing that.  He’s a Buddhist.  You know, the people who believe that all paths to God are equally valid.  Jef responded —

“Jody, I am unable to add quotes or scriptures from the Bible as you’ve requested. I have always taken great care to avoid any quotes that would offend others as well as my own personal religious beliefs.”

He was fired the next day.  But, I am certain they did it in a real Christian-like manner.

He’s suing.

By the way, I danced over to the google to find the company and here’s the listing.  Please note the “This site may be hacked” notice.

But, if you’d like to let them know how Christians should behave, here ya go.

In Goodman Networks defense, they claimed they fired him “pursuant to an apparently pre-planned and well-thought out reduction in force.”  Yeah, right.  Our cow just died, Goodman, so we won’t be needing your bull.

Thanks to Old Mayfly for the heads up.

Iowa Republican Senate candidate Joni Ernst makes me a tad uncomfortable.  Any woman who smiles when talking about castrating anything makes me nervous and I don’t even have anything castrateable.

I guess if she could be confined to the Republican side of the aisle, I’d be okay with that.  But I sure wouldn’t be giving her any knives.

She’s running for Tom Harkin’s old seat.  Mitt Romney backs her.  Apparently he was castrated in November 2011 so he doesn’t have to worry.

Thanks to Karl for the heads up.
