Deliver Us From Weevils
Georgia congresscritter Paul Broun, delivering the invocation Monday at the Cobb GOP Independence Day Celebration & Bar-B-Q: “Father, there are many who want to destroy us from outside this nation. Folks like al-Qaeda and the radical Islamists. But there are folks that want to destroy us from inside, the progressives and the socialists, who want to make this nation a nation that’s no longer under you, under God, but a nation that’s ruled by man.” [Marietta Daily Journal, via Political Correction]
“Pig Rolls In Shit; Film At Eleven”
Note to Broun: It never was under “god”
TJ/For the Stinque Law Pool…can someone be brought to trial a second time for an offense if incontrovertible evidence of guilt- a picture of someone commiting a murder, say, or a film of same- comes to light? Or does a verdict of “innocent” stand for good and all?
@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: I believe double jeopardy is supposed to prevent that. I dunno.
Please deliver me from Georgia.
@rptrcub: Honey. We’re all thinking of you and sending warm hugs. (don’t stand too close to Catt)
@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: It’s double jeopardy, but sometimes there are ways around it, e.g. the feds bringing a criminal civil rights case after a state court aquittal.
@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: What have you done? Does it involve assless chaps?
@Benedick HRH KFC: I swear to God he said he was 19.
@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: Speaking of which we saw movie last night about a boy of 12 who falls in love with a soldier (Canadian, naturally) and they have passionate buttsecks. (I’m thinking it was made by str8 people. They do love the buttsecks. cf Brokeback Mounting) Could be a very interesting idea but was done in an unbelievably creepy manner. Dutch. Ugh.
