Or gay.  It’s great to be gay today.

Take that, you hateful old people, trying to run everybody else’s lives.

Several customers sent me a site that I didn’t use here because Momma would chase us all down with a bar of soap.  It has the F bomb, but it you don’t mind that, this is darned funny and adorable.

Hey, What About The Kids Knowing Crisco? You Got a Problem With Crisco? I think that’s on the SAT, You Know.

Yes, these are the people who elect Leo Berman and now we understand why he’s so greasy.

Thanks to Dianne for the heads up.

It’s a Good Day To Be a Grown Up Women

She quit and then she whined.

A high-ranking official resigned Tuesday from the Susan G. Komen for the Cure breast-cancer charity after a dispute over whether the group should give funding to Planned Parenthood, according to a letter obtained by The Associated Press.

Karen Handel, the charity’s vice president for public policy, told Komen officials that she supported the move to cut off funding for Planned Parenthood. She said the discussion started before she arrived at the organization and was approved at the highest levels of the charity.

“I am deeply disappointed by the gross mischaracterizations of the strategy, its rationale, and my involvement in it,” Handel said in her letter.

And Margaret and Helen put the gree-gree on The Komen Foundation, and then sent a call to all grown up women across America.

And then Brother Mike Luckovich took it for a ride —

Yes, it is a good day to be grown up woman.  But that’s pretty much every day, isn’t it?

And Speaking of Gettin’ Your Story Straight ….

Republican Congressman John Flemming of Louisidamnana read the following from the Onion ….

TOPEKA, KS—Planned Parenthood announced Tuesday the grand opening of its long-planned $8 billion Abortionplex, a sprawling abortion facility that will allow the organization to terminate unborn lives with an efficiency never before thought possible.

During a press conference, Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards told reporters that the new state-of-the-art fetus-killing facility located in the nation’s heartland offers quick, easy, in-and-out abortions to all women, and represents a bold reinvention of the group’s long-standing mission and values.

“Although we’ve traditionally dedicated 97 percent of our resources to other important services such as contraception distribution, cancer screening, and STD testing, this new complex allows us to devote our full attention to what has always been our true passion: abortion,” said Richards, standing under a banner emblazoned with Planned Parenthood’s new slogan, “No Life Is Sacred.”

… and immediately posted it on his Facebook page with the comment, “More on Planned Parenthood, abortion by the wholesale.”  No kidding.

One of his Facebook friends pointed out that it was satire.  From the Onion.  You know satire?  It’s something done to make you look like a damnfool.  Apparently it works.

Flemming then deleted the Facebook entry.

It is unknown if he said “oops.”

Thanks to RuthAnn for the heads-up.

No, No, Mel, You’re Doing It Wrong

Mel, Honey, that’s not why most folks go to prostitutes.   Marijuana is just their loss leader.

As you would suspect, voting records reveal that Mel is a staunch Republican.  I’m proud to say that Democratic men know what you go to a prostitute for.

Mel also has a Master’s degree in Theology and a PhD in Philosophy.  What the guy needs is a Bachelor of Gettin’ Your Story Straight.

And Greg Abbott’s Butt

February 06, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

You’ve heard about the redistricting mess in Texas.  Republicans want an entire Republican rich white boy legislature and congress.  It’s been a tough fight but we have better lawyers than they do, so we ain’t waving a white flag.

Okay, so to shock and awe everybody, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott announced early this afternoon that “an agreement  has been reached with some parties regarding the ongoing redistricting legal fight.”

Really?  You mean it finally over and we can have an election?  Well, that’s some dandy news.

Not so quick, pardner.

Come to find out, the “some parties” appear to be Greg Abbott, a very small group of conservative Hispanics, Greg Abbott’s butt, some of Greg Abbott’s imaginary friends, and a drunk guy passed out in front of the Baptist Church in Sanger, Texas, claiming to be Randy Travis.

Today was the deadline to reach an agreement in order to have an April 3rd primary and Abbott played games.  With his butt.  He announced an agreement with one small group and said to Texas voters, “Come and get it!”

When we got there, there was a screwing awaiting us.

Left out of the agreement was (LULAC), the NAACP, the entire Democratic Party, the Gonzales Plaintiffs and the Quesda/Veasey Plaintiffs. The Mexican American Legislative Caucus also opposes the Abbott’s plan.

Faster than a bullet with legs, the San Antonio three judge panel (two of who were appointed by Republicans)  told the parties to keep negotiating, which means they were not impressed with Greg Abbott’s hiney, either.

One day when I’ve had a little more to drink, I’m gonna tell you all about a punk named Congressman Henry Goddam Cuellar, a Democrat who sells out Hispanics.  He aligned himself with Tom Delay during the last redistricting.  Greg Abbott now holds his leash.  He calls himself a Blue Dog Democrat, but only because there is no official Worthless Jerk Idiot Damn Twit Dog Democrat caucus.  I’m serious as a heart attack.
