So, Joe Arpaio’s right hand man got disbarred.

In a Phoenix courtroom filled with fellow lawyers and some of his biggest critics on Tuesday, the former Arizona prosecutor who served for years as Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s right-hand man was stripped of his license to practice law.

A three-member state disciplinary panel ruled that ex-Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas abused his powers as a prosecutor to target his political enemies. Because of that, they ruled he would be disbarred.

Now, I’m not saying that this guy is as crooked as a barrel of fishhooks …. no, wait, that’s exactly what I’m saying.

Of course, Thomas the Writ Twit says it’s all a giant conspiracy to get him.   Well, bless his heart, he pretty much seems to be the expert in conspiracies to get people, so maybe he’s right.  Decent people have ganged up on him and want to turn him into a crock of cow confetti for what he’s done to other decent people.

The skirmishing at the hearing would have made Gettysburg look like a ROTC drill, and Thomas came out looking like he’d spent the night in the dishwasher.

If you wait around long enough, sweet karma perches on the shoulder of justice and grins.

Thanks to Ralph for the heads-up.

Okay, I want to know who is responsible for this travesty of unentertainment.

Rick Santorium is dropping out.

Now what’s the Texas Republican Party supposed to do with their strongly worded resolution?  You cannot eat a strongly worded resolution, you know.  It’s not going to just disappear on a meaningless piece of paper.  That sucker has gravitas!  You cannot serve up warmed over gravitas.

You know what that means, don’t you?  It’s just Mitt and Newt and Ron now – the Three Candidateteers!

So, if you’re looking for employment, might I suggest being a door-to-door Bible salesman on election day in Texas?  Everybody who wants one will be at home that day.

Glen Beck built himself an oval office to broadcast from.

Yep.  Well, he didn’t actually build it himself.  He bought it from a movie production company.  It was originally used in the movie JFK, wooo, weeee, wooo, that’s surely a conspiracy.

The LA Times rightly put this news in their Entertainment section, where Beck has long last found his home.

He will give “pretend” Presidential speeches from his new set, and chase interns around it at night.

You know, we kinda need to put a limit on goofy.

Thanks to Ralph for the heads-up.

Can somebody please explain to me what special kind of crazzzy person doubles down when facing a tough recall election?  Scott Walker is giving the keys to Wisconsin to the steeple people.

You know, I kinda feel bad for the Super DeLux Brand Christians.  I mean, none of their core beliefs are in the Bible.  That’s gotta hurt, not to mention making Sunday Sermons mighty short.

But what they lack in Biblical foundation, they make up for in buying politicians.

Not only did Scott Walker repeal the state’s enforcement mechanism for pay discrimination lawsuits, making paying women less not only easier, but highly encouraged, he also went after women’s health and sex education.

What is it he doesn’t like about women?  Have we hurt his feelings or something?  Has he watched too many Father Knows Best reruns?

And here’s the clincher.

Scott Walker’s campaign, asked for comment, replied, “Governor Walker is solely focused on sharing his pro-jobs, pro-growth message and his plans for using the foundation that has been laid to move Wisconsin forward.”

What is pro-jobs about paying women less for doing the same job as a man? That seems pro-Neanderthal employer, but hardly helpful to single moms.

No matter how much they want to go back to the 1950’s with no birth control, women mopping the kitchen in high heels, and …. whoa, that’s it.  It’s that whole mopping the floor in high heels, ain’t it?  That’s what he wants to see.

Oh yeah, by the way, the war on caterpillars just launched a Walker missal.

Thanks to Ralph for the heads-up.

It seems that a new study has shown that homophobes are more likely to be repressed homosexuals than we originally thought.

A research team from the University of Rochester, the University of Essex, England, and the University of California in Santa Barbara found that “[h]omophobia is more pronounced in individuals with an unacknowledged attraction to the same sex and who grew up with authoritarian parents who forbade such desires.”

I have three things to say about this.

1. Duh.

2. DUH.

3.  DDDDDDUUUUUUUHHHHHH

Thanks to Brian and June for the heads-up.

Sam from Pearland just sent me a joke.
