A rug has been removed from a sheriff’s office in Florida after it was noticed that it read “in dog we trust” instead of “in God we trust”.
Okay, admittedly, it’s not the worst thing that a dog has ever done to a rug.
And admittedly, it’s Florida so it’s kinda amazing it only took two months for anyone to notice it.
But mainly, Truman wants to know where we can get one of those things.
Thanks to Brian for the heads up.

Sometimes I wonder what we would do without the Super DeLux Brand Christians sending out daily devil warnings.
Okay, that’s a lie. I never wonder about that. Dream about it, sure, but never wonder. I think we’d be just fine without them. Maybe better, I dunno.
Case in point:
If you go to Memphis, Tennessee, there is a grown woman there named Robyn Wilkins who is outraged, outraged I tell you, that the devil hisownself is worshipped on public school busses.
You need proof, oh ye of little faith?
Robyn has proof. She took a picture.
In case this is not perfectly obvious to you, the red star lights near the bottom of the bus are not stars. No, sireeee. Those suckers are a pentagram and pentagrams are a sign of the devil.
Robyn Wilkins snapped a photo when she noticed the shape of an upside down, five-pointed star outlined in the brake lights of a school bus that was stopped in Cordova.
“Anyone who fears a God, if not God and Jesus Christ, should be outraged,” Wilkins said.
She says Christians should be outraged that a symbol that looks like a pentagram would be allowed in the design of a vehicle used to transport children to public schools.
And just to make her point very clear, she adds,
“If you can’t put a cross on there, you cannot put a pentagram on it,” Wilkins said.
Yeah. Jesus said so.
Holy cow, y’all, don’t let Robin come to Texas.
We have pentagrams everywhere.
Thelma even has one tattooed on her butt because she enjoys mooning people from Oklahoma. I wonder if it would even things out with the Lord if she put a cross on the other cheek?
Thanks to Kary for the heads up.
Mike Huckabee, who looks like the church lady in a business suit, has decided that President Obama and his wife do not not know to parent correctly. After all, those girls are such a mess.
Huckabee, who is kinda obsessed with Beyoncé, has decided that it’s just not appropriate for the first daughters to listen to Beyoncé sing.
If ya think about it, yo boy!, this a a loud dog whistle, plus he gets a twofer. He can criticize both Beyoncé and President Obama in one breath. Now if he could just figure out a way to work in Michael Jordan, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Oprah, he’d have all his bases covered. Extra points for edging-in Nelson Mandela.
Glass houses and rocks, Huckabee.
I’d much rather children listen to Beyoncé than you.
It’s been a spectacular week for gun nuts in Texas.
The Texas Branch of Really Homely Guys With Guns, aka Open Carry Texas, stormed the State Capitol on the first day of the session, and proceeded to threaten members of the legislature.
Seriously.
They seemed to particularly enjoy harassing the Hispanic members. One member escorted them from his office.
The gun nuts themselves posted this video on Facebook to show the difference between guts and gall. Their cause is that you shouldn’t have to have a license to carry a firearm. They believe that requiring a background check or a license is an infringement on their rights.

Kory Watkins, the head of this group, is a very strange guy. Plus, bless his heart, he’s homely as a mud fence. Have you ever noticed that about the gun nuts? They are very homely guys. Bless their hearts.
They got so cranky that even one of their original members dropped out of the visitations.
Fellow gun-rights activist CJ Grisham said he initially accompanied the group as they stopped by Capitol offices, but left before they reached Nevárez because he disagreed with how they were interacting with lawmakers.
“I just can’t believe the utter lack of professionalism, tact and, really, common courtesy that I saw today,” Grisham said. “It was intimidation, it was talking down, it was speaking over, it was childishness, and it did absolutely zero to even engage in conversation.”
Honey, when you’re too nutty for the other nuts, you gotta dial it back a notch or two. Or at least get your seat tray in the full upright and locked position.

Watkins and his group says they plan several more visits to the Texas Capitol during the session.
With that promise on the homefront, Texas House members – you know, the people sponsoring the bill to allow for open carry without a license — have decided to allow the installation of Panic Buttons in their offices to alert DPS if something bad is going down. I have no problem with that for Democrats. But ….
Holy cow, Republicans, you created these guys. You brought them to the prom and now you gotta dance with them. So, instead of a panic button, I say Republicans in the House get one of those “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” buttons.
And, finally, the NRA needs a panic button of their own.
On their website, they show a picture of a diverse group of people wanting more gun rights.
Looks wildly like a stock photo —
Read all about it here.
So, that’s a trifecta today for the NRA.
Thanks to everybody for all the heads up.
The rightwing Washington Times posted a list of Bill Kistol’s 2016 list of possible Republican candidates.
Here ya go. Our friend John of the Great Graphics has added some snickering to the list.
John Bolton
Jeb Bush (Thanks, Texas.)
Ben Carson (Oooh, a black guy!)
Chris Christie (Hunka. Hunka. Literally.)
Ted Cruz (Thanks again, Texas.)
Carly Fiorina (A woman!)
Lindsey Graham (Another woman!)
Mike Huckabee
Bobby Jindal
John Kasich
Peter King
Mike Pence
Rick Perry (Now Texas, cut that out!)
Mitt Romney (The ghost of Christmas Past.)
Marco Rubio
Paul Ryan
Rick Santorum
Joe Scarborough (Uh, what?)
Scott Walker
Allen West (Another black guy!)
Dick Cheney (He hasn’t shot any friends in the face for a while now.)
Tom Cotton
Mitch Daniels (His bro Charlie had a band.)
Joni Ernst (Reputed woman.)
Newt Gingrich (Who already thinks he is Prez.)
Rudy Giuliani
I would like to add a far more qualified name to the list. Herb Appleby, the guy who lives across the street from me and is the Republican precinct chair. Herb’s older than Dick Cheney and almost as mean. You have to get off his lawn or he will holler at you. Herb still has the first nickel he ever earned and deeply suspects that we are running a Muslim undocumented worker abortion clinic at our house. Herb is as qualified as any of the people above and at least he’d keep the White House lawn neat and in order.
Thanks to John for the heads up.
