A wiki of dicks. Today’s Dick of the Day – Joe Lieberman:

After publicly stating that George W. Bush’s Iraq invasion was valid (it wasn’t) because Iraq was involved in the 9/11 attacks (they weren’t), Lieberman lost the Connecticut Democratic Party’s 2006 renomination to somebody who actually stood for things Democrats stand for. Lieberman then ran as an “independent Democrat” on the ticket of the dickishly named Connecticut for Lieberman party. After actually winning the election, he made a deal with the Democratic leadership, saying his independent status was a technicality and that he would continue to caucus in the Senate as a Democrat.

Title: “Hitch-22: A Memoir”

Author: Christopher Hitchens

Rank: 82

Blurb: “If Hitchens didn’t exist, we wouldn’t be able to invent him.” (Ian McEwan)

Review: “Many reviews and articles about Hitch 22 will focus on the Hitchens’ statements about the high degree of homosexual activity that he says existed in the boarding schools he attended. His claims (which I have no logical reason to doubt) seem pretty stunning to me, a small town boy from the midwest.”

Neonazi hatecaster and Sean Hannity fascist circle-jerk partner Hal Turner was convicted Friday of threatening three federal judges who ruled to uphold handgun bans in Chicago and Oak Park, Illinois last year, earning him a sentence of up to 10 years during which Stinque.com hopes this monstrous freak is stomped to death by authentic neonazi murderers.

Two trials were scrubbed last year due to, first, a deadlocked jury and then a mistrial declaration by a judge. Prosecutors accused this freak of writing on his website in June 2009, “Let me be the first to say this plainly: These Judges deserve to be killed.” Accompanying this recommendation for his fans who could read were photographs, phone numbers and work addresses for the judges, clearly targeting data for psychopaths.

A righteously resolute jury took just two hours to convict this monstrous piece of shit of threatening to kill three federal judges. His mommy complained the first amendment had been destroyed by the conviction and his kid had the good fortune of seeing his dad dragged off and will hopefully never have to endure this nazi’s twisted presence again.

As much as Barry might be pissing most of us off with his “recalibration” of his remarks on the separation of church and state or his calculated change in his position on gay marriage from that of ten years ago, let’s take a step back and just enjoy this moment of a kinda-dorky/kinda-cool dad sincerely celebrating when his awesome daughter Sasha made a hole-in-one on the first hole of a miniature golf course during their photo-op visit to the Florida Panhandle.

Even that lump of coal I call my cynical heart melted a little bit at this.

Last night President Barack Obama, addressing a crowd of Muslims in the White House observing the holy month of Ramadan, said that under the First Amendment’s separation of church and state, a Muslim community center and mosque  has the right to build where they want to. Obama’s comments echoed the stirring speech given last week by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg defending the concept of religious tolerance.

The shrieks of Republican blowhards and politicians are increasing and no doubt will reach a crescendo tomorrow morning on the Sunday talkshows.

If you insist upon not being eaten by wolves when you die, or not having your coffee-can-laden ashes blown into Jeff Bridges’ face, there’s an alternative that promises to be slightly easier on land use than traditional casket dumping:

Drill, body, drill.
