We Used to be Disgusted, Then We Were Amused, Now We’re Just Bewildered
In his rush to out-bloviate Wednesday’s Hyperventilation Winner, the fascinatingly named Bob Peters of Morality in Media seems to have lost his mind between his headline and his seventh paragraph.
From the top:
Connecting the Dots: The Link Between Gay Marriage and Mass Murders
And at the bottom:
It most certainly is not my intention to blame the epidemic of mass murders on the gay rights movement!
If nothing else, we now understand why folks like Peters insist the Bible doesn’t contradict itself.
Connecting the Dots: The Link Between Gay Marriage and Mass Murders [Christian NewsWire]
Sigh. That is some pretty stupid deductive reasoning.
I guess Gay Marriage = Lousy Economy caused by greedy psychopathic jackals who were whole heartedly supported by fundie wingnuts whose poor grasp of math (and other subjects) leads to 2+2 = Jeebus.
Karl Rove accosted at dinner by angry REPUB. Not much of a fight really, but I suspect that this is going to happen more often.

@ManchuCandidate: Nah, that wasn’t even close to Rove being accosted; Sheryl Crowe was tougher on him. But I like the fact that Rove was able to fall back on those hard lessons he learned shilling for CREEP: “I have a file”.
Can we start a new douchebag of the day list?
@Nabisco: Douchebag of the hour?
Feeney’s involvement in setting up the software attacks that flipped votes Republican in 2000 is well known. Rove has something on him, no doubt involving small children, cannibalism, heroine trafficking or the deaths of thousands of people or something along those lines. Rove’s “I have a file” was just his GOP way of telling Roe, “fuck with me, asshole and you and fucking Feeney, that piece of shit, goes to the fucking chair and all your kids and wives die fucking bankrupt. Just fuck with me. Do it, asshole! “
Top and bottom.
I see what you did there.
all the damage this [sexual] revolution has caused to children, adults, family life and society (think abortion, divorce, pornography, rape, sexual abuse of children, sexually transmitted diseases, trafficking in women and children, unwed teen mothers and more)
Ok, so the sexual revolution caused:
* abortion
* divorce
* pornography
* rape
* sexual abuse of children
* STDs
* human trafficking
* unwed teen mothers
Whhaaaaa? (Finest John Stewart style doubletake.)
Someone clearly needs to review their ancient history, including, oh, I dunno, the bible.
@IanJ: That reminds me, I do hope someone is zombifying the whole Noah thing…
@FlyingChainSaw: heroine trafficking
I like what you inadvertently did there.
I have a strong suspicion that schadenfreude is probably not good for the soul, but oh how much I wish I could experience some, hell a lot, with regard to Slimy Rove.
This has just made my Friday:
Polish Politician Attacks Gay Elephant
Here’s your quote of the day, unlikely to be surpassed: “”We didn’t pay 37 million zlotys for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there.” So fumed Polish politician Michal Grzes, a conservative councillor in the city of Ponzan. The elephant in question, Ninio, “prefers male companions and will probably not procreate,” according to Reuters. But instead of being gay, Ninio might just be young and confused: “The head of the Ponzan zoo said 10-year-old Ninio may be too young to decide whether he prefers males or females as elephants only reach sexual maturity at 14.”
Comment would be superfluous.
Rachel Maddow (and AMC) deals with Teabagging and both trying not to laugh.
@lynnlightfoot: It’s toxic. But Rove is not something that should provoke any response except the defensive impulse to exterminate a genocidal agent and enemy of the species.
@ManchuCandidate: What’s the Log Cabin Republicans’ position on teabagging?
@blogenfreude: Writing is fun! I think kids would be much more interested in their compositional skills if they were shown how much you can get away with and still fly under the radar.
OK guys, in case you want to write an article like Mr. Peters, here’s the formula:
Our (local government/state government/federal government) has just chosen to legalize (strip clubs/gay marriage/Mexican pizza) which is an abomination unto God. You’ll notice that since we as a people have moved away from God things have gotten really, really shitty, especially this mass murder stuff. I’m not necessarily saying that (strip club patrons/gays/Jalpeno pizza eaters) are responsible for mass murder. I’m just sayin’… you know… think about it.
Ha ha. Ouch.
Ha ha. Ouch.
