FAUX News' McCarthyite communist witch hunt against White House continues with union head Andy Stern
Andy Stern once said "workers of the world unite."
That, according to FAUX News' Glenn Beck, makes him a communist and a socialist.
Beck is unbalanced, to be sure, but he's an increasingly powerful voice in the repugican party.
The repugican party is in serious trouble.
They have no real political leaders.
So the void is being filled by half-wit extremists like Beck and Palin and Limbaugh.

Following Virginia Foxx's lead, wingnuts equate health care reform to terrorism
On November 2, Virginia Foxx (retard-NC) said on the House floor regarding health care legislation before the House: "I believe we have more to fear from the potential of that bill passing than we do from any terrorist right now in any country."
Following Foxx's statement, Faux News' Glenn Beck compared health care reform to 9-11, and talk radio host Neal Boortz and the Faux Nation promoted Foxx's attack.

How scientists determined how many humans two lions ate in 1898
Tissue from two notorious 19th-century man-eaters shows that one of them took the lion's share of human prey 
Bones and teeth store carbon and nitrogen isotopes over long periods, while the ratios in hair change more rapidly, allowing the scientists to determine the long-term diet and how it changed in the lions' last months.Humans made up at least half of the diet of one of the lions in the last months of his life, consuming at least 24 people, they concluded. The other lion had eaten 11 people, they found.
In other words, even a century later, you are what you eat.

Virginia Foxx is very afraid of health insurance reform, even more than terrorism
Is there a contest among the repugicans to see who is the craziest? (let's hope not ... there are too many candidates for the top spot on the cray scale among the repugicans)
Virginia Foxx (retard-NC), the Congresswoman who slandered Matthew Shepard, thinks health insurance reform is a bigger danger than terrorism -- and we know how much repugicans fear terrorism.
Foxx is Bachmann - just from a little lower on the latitudinal lines on the map. Just as Bat-Shit crazy.

20-year old Iraqi woman dies; father ran her over for being too Westernized
A young Iraqi woman died last night in Arizona because her father believed she had become too Westernized. Noor Faleh Almaleki, the 20-year old pictured here, moved to the Phoenix area in the mid-90s with her family. Her father, Faleh Hassan Almaleki, feared that her American upbringing had led her to abandon traditional Iraqi values. He opposed the way she dressed and the way she resisted his rules. So on October 20th, he ran over her and another woman, Amal Khalaf, in his Jeep Grand Cherokee as they walked across a parking lot. Khalaf — who is the daughter's roommate and the mother of her boyfriend — survived, but the daughter died last night in the hospital. Her father is in police custody now after a failed attempt to escape to the UK via Mexico.

Dimbulb Spews
Dimbulb in three lies (what else is new?)
Lush Dimbulb lies saying "The threat that people in this country who want to be free face is now within our own borders"
Nope, we are free and those tried to impose their perversions on us, like you Lush, don't like that we threw you off into the gutter where you belong.
Dimbulb continues to lie claiming President Obama is "destroying" the "private sector" and "it may be on purpose"
Nope, that was the shrub and the cabal abetted by idiots like you Lush.
Dimbulb in his syphilitic delusion keeps up with the lying by 'asking' President Obama "What do you not like about this country that makes you want to inflict this kind of damage on it?"
Nope, our president loves the country unlike you and your ilk Lush, who HATE AMERICA and all it stands for. And you don't like the fact we are repairing the damage you did when you all but destroyed this nation.
