Some whackjob Baptists disrupted the prayer in the U.S. Senate, screaming "Lord Jesus, forgive us father for allowing a prayer of the wicked, which is an abomination in your sight," the first protester began.
"This is an abomination," he continued. "We shall have no other gods before You."
Religious intolerance...the core values America was founded on. Way to go, America.
SuperWow! adds ... we have video!
Can anyone confirm Senator Patrick's whereabouts during this thing? Just sayin'.
The House voted today to pull troops from Iraq in 2008. The president pouted and replied, "I don't think Congress ought to be running the war. I think they ought to be funding the troops." The president has a point. Congress hasn't done any of their checks and balances on the other branches of government in the last 7 years, why should they start now? That's just bad form. We should just keep eating the lies from the White House and continue to spend billions of taxpayer money every month to kill our soldiers and see zero results from the investment.
The last time I spent billions of dollars of my budget and killed off a few staffers, we at least got an endorsement deal out of it.
Rep. Robert Allen was arrested for trying to suck a dick. He propositioned a cop. Apparently, he offered $20 to perform a 'blow job' on the officer. Wow. Twenty dollars and you get a blow job? Sounds like a win-win to me.
The sex in politics is getting a little hard to keep up with lately. The Stonewall Democrats have their leader arrested for performing oral sex in a park, The Louisiana Republicans have their Senator doin' it with hookers, and the Florida Republicans have both Mark Foley and Bob Allen.
For the first time the leading candidates for the presidency will hold a televised debate devoted solely to LGBT issues.(365Gay)The one-hour event will be held on August 9 and broadcast on gay network LOGO at 9:00 pm ET (6:00 pm ET) and through live streaming video at LOGOonline.com.
Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards have confirmed they will participate. Several other Democratic candidates also may join the debate.
What gay questions should we submit for Hillary, John and Barack?
Pope Benedict XVI reasserted the primacy of the Roman Catholic Church, approving a document released Tuesday that says other Christian communities are either defective or not true churches and Catholicism provides the only true path to salvation.So, if you aren't molesting young boys you aren't going to Heaven? What's that about? That man has got some nerve. Benedict ain't even his real name.
This statement is everything that's wrong with organized religion today. And I don't know where in the hell the Catholics get off being all high and mighty. That pisses me right off. What a dickhead.

Rep. Borris Miles takes matters into his own hands.
Shooter McGavin's statement, which makes me think he might have caught a ninja robbing him:
"Citizens have the constitutional right to protect their homes, when it is prudent to do so, I also urge them to contact law enforcement immediately. Had I had the option of calling the authorities prior to the shooting, I would have done so but with my life in clear and present danger and being immediately threatened by a knife-throwing burglar, I had no choice but to fire for my own protection. While this incident is regrettable, I will as any citizen should, protect their homes and the safety of their families."
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., apologized Monday night for "a very serious sin in my past" after his telephone number appeared among those associated with an escort service operated by the so-called "D.C. Madam."
I'm not sure an apology is necessary for this. (Americablog)
I have a friend that worked on the Edwards campaign and he always told me stories about John Edwards obsession with his hair. I laughed it off until I saw this. Seriously, dude...just get a haircut.
Oh, and to all the whiny people that think I'm insinuating something about sexuality here? Stop getting your knickers in a twist. I'm completely gay and even I'm not this high maintenance about my hair.
Serious suit on cell: If he does that then he's going to have to give up the hookers and drugs, and I am not kidding.
