Dumbass of the day!

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 28th, 2008 by gatordoug

A lifeguard for a kiddy pool? Yep! DUMBASS OF THE DAY!

For nearly a quarter of a century, Lourdes Maxwell has celebrated the arrival of summer by putting a paddling pool in the garden.

This year, however, her two grandchildren and the children of her neighbours may have to find another way to cool off in the heat.

Miss Maxwell’s local council has decided that the pool - which is only 2ft deep - needs a lifeguard.

The 47-year-old divorced mother of three has also been told she must have insurance before she can inflate the toy outside her house in Portsmouth.

This is the nanny state we are headed to unless we wake up.

The racism of the Left raises its head again

Posted in Race Pimping, The scurge of PC on May 27th, 2008 by gatordoug

Michelle Malkin has the scoop via the NY Slimes. The same Liberals who support Gay adoption, which I really have no problem with, are concerned over transracial adoptions.

Minority children in foster care are being ill-served by a federal law that plays down race and culture in adoptions, a report released on Tuesday said.The report, based on an examination of the law’s impact over a decade, said that minority children adopted into white households face special challenges and that white parents need preparation and training for what might lie ahead.

But it found that social workers and state agencies fear litigation and stiff penalties under the law for even discussing race with adopting couples. As a result, families often do not get the counseling they need. It also found that states have ignored an aspect of the law that requires diligent recruitment of black parents.

The report recommends that the law — the Multiethnic Placement Act, which covers agencies receiving federal dollars and promotes a color-blind approach — be amended to permit agencies to consider race and culture as one of many factors when selecting parents for children from foster care.

To me the biggest concern is getting these kids into loving families. The best choice being a married Heterosexual couple. But Color is meaningless frankly. Liberals tend to worry themselves sick over it, but I tend to believe in a color-blind society.

The PC menu at the Democratic Convention

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 19th, 2008 by gatordoug

What else would we expect? To Dems fried food is a bad trip dude!

Fried foods are forbidden at the committee’s 22 or so events, as is liquid served in individual plastic containers. Plates must be reusable, like china, recyclable or compostable. The food should be local, organic or both.And caterers must provide foods in “at least three of the following five colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple, and white,” garnishes not included, according to a Request for Proposals, or RFP, distributed last week.

The shrimp-and-mango ensemble? All it’s got is white, brown and orange, so it may not have the nutritional balance that generally comes from a multihued menu.

“Blue could be a challenge,” joked Ed Janos, owner of Cook’s Fresh Market in Denver. “All I can think of are blueberries.”

Great news! EVERYTHING bad is our fault!

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 14th, 2008 by gatordoug

Yes, it all mankind’s fault! Blame us for Everything!

Researchers who analysed 30,000 academic studies dating back to 1970 said man was responsible for changes that ranged from the loss of ice sheets to the collapse in numbers of many species of wildlife.

“Humans are influencing climate through increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and the warming world is causing impacts on physical and biological systems,” said Cynthia Rosenzweig, at the Nasa Goddard Institute for Space Studies.

The effects on living things include the earlier appearance of leaves on trees and plants; the movement of animals and birds to more northerly latitudes and to higher altitudes in the northern hemisphere; rapid advances in flowering time and earlier egg-laying in Britain; and changes in bird migrations in Europe, North America and Australia.

Recycling Nazis strike!

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 13th, 2008 by gatordoug

It has come to this! Dare we ponder what comes next?

A council refused to collect rubbish from a 95-year-old war veteran who is nearly blind - because he put a ketchup bottle in the wrong bin.

Lenny Woodward, a former Desert Rat who has lived in the same house for 58 years, was confused by a new regime of fortnightly collections and rigid recycling rules.

Residents have a blue wheelie bin for cans and cardboard, a green box for glass and a black bin for other waste.

Mr Woodward made the mistake of putting the ketchup bottle and a coffee jar in the blue bin when they should have gone in the green box.

When binmen inspected the blue bin, they refused to empty it and attached a tag to it warning him not to break the rules again.

What would happen if he did dare to “break the rules” again? Sounds quite threatening doesn’t it?

Worst president EVER: Presidents should not lie

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 11th, 2008 by gatordoug

Hmmm, ONLY this damned old fool could play this much moral relativism.

I do not think the President of the United States should be a liar, and believe that the overwhelming majority of U.S. citizens agree with me. For security reasons, the whole truth cannot always be revealed, but it is quite obvious that lies are seldom made to protect our nation. Almost invariably, the political fortunes of the prevaricator are at stake.

Well, I agree the president should not be a liar. However, I wonder why Carter thinks his constant excuse-making for, and playing kissy face with dictators and terrorists is OK? Or why he forgets how disastrous his Marxist policies were for America?

That Carter was a complete and utter failure as president makes it bad enough for him to cast judgenent on any other president. His embracing the likes of Castro, Hamas, Arafat, and Kim Jung Il, makes his attempt to play the moral authority card asbsolutely nauseating!

Rumors confirmed! Code Pinkos are broom-riding witches!

Posted in Marxist Morons, The scurge of PC on May 9th, 2008 by gatordoug

Down down they go, further down in the pit of asininity! The Code Pinkos have now resorted to casting spells on Marines

The radical anti-military group, Code Pink, finally shows the world what its membership is made of: witches and crones. Seriously. This week, Code Pink is holding a series of events and street theater to get themselves some more notoriety. You’d think it would be enough that they have attacked the Marine recruiting center and traveled the world coddling dictators and handing out money to terrorists’ families. But nooooooo!!!! The witches of Code Pink plan to gather at their usual place of harassment, the Marine Corps Recruiting Center in Berkeley, and cast some spells to chase the recruiters away. From Code Pink’s Website:
“Friday, May 9th: Witches, Crones, Sirens: perform rituals of leaving, cast a spell of peace and love over the station, rendering nil the recruiting of our youth to become fodder for this occupation of Iraq.” I told you I wasn’t kidding.

It is clear that Code Pink’s work with the Berkeley City Council to demean, destroy and debase the Marines in Berkeley has failed. First, the City Council passed resolutions giving Code Pink a free parking place in front of the recruiters’ office with a free noise permit. At the same time, the city Council called the Marines “unwelcome” and “intruders,” and the council refuses to apologize.

Leftist stupidity reaches new low

Posted in The scurge of PC on May 4th, 2008 by gatordoug

Once more they are at the bottom of the pit of stupidity and digging furiously. This time, it is plant rights! Yes, plant rights

At the request of the Swiss government, an ethics panel has weighed in on the “dignity” of plants and opined that the arbitrary killing of flora is morally wrong. This is no hoax. The concept of what could be called “plant rights” is being seriously debated.A few years ago the Swiss added to their national constitution a provision requiring “account to be taken of the dignity of creation when handling animals, plants and other organisms.” No one knew exactly what it meant, so they asked the Swiss Federal Ethics Committee on Non-Human Biotechnology to figure it out. The resulting report, “The Dignity of Living Beings with Regard to Plants,” is enough to short circuit the brain.

Exit question. Can you hear the veggies sceam?

Laura Bush target of Moonbat rage!

What a royal prick! this jackass is.

Laura Bush, docile doormat
Behold, the ideal Republican wife: Prim, sexless, nearly useless, lets the men do the real thinkin’. Hot!
By Mark Morford, SF Gate Columnist

Wait, what? You mean docile, prudish, former librarian Laura Bush, she of the nonexistent inspiration and dull-as-dishwater personality? Yes indeed, that Laura Bush. Here was my friend, brash and funny and who spoke her mind without the slightest reservation, and who could drink and think and opine with the strongest of men, and yet she admired this … limp wallflower? I didn’t get it. I still don’t completely get it, to this very day.

All of this comes to mind as I see, skirting across the newswires, a handful of generic photos and sidebar stories of Laura Bush out on tour recently with her twin Styrofoam peanut daughters, Jenna and Barbara, promoting a new children’s book they all apparently, and yeah right, wrote together and isn’t that sweet.

There is Laura, looking exactly as she has looked for the past eight insufferable years. Prim, a bit glassy, reserved, her hair some sort of ironclad helmet of awkward architecture, the very epitome of nice, meek, domestic Republican female, not making the slightest wave and hoping no one really notices because, well, she’s just a woman…

Hmmm, this guy is a real gem of tolerance isnt he?

Biofuels-A failure of Leftist climate change panic

Posted in The scurge of PC on April 25th, 2008 by gatordoug

In order to “fix” a problem that Might not even be real the climate alarmists pushed biofuels like Ethanol on us. And as a result food prices are soaring because we are, Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey puts it puts it we are feeding cars instead of people.

What makes this even more absurd is ethanol itself. It burns cleaner, but has significant problems as a transportation fuel. It has only two-thirds the potential energy of gasoline, which means more of it has to be used to get the same mileage. Ethanol has to be shipped by truck as it cannot be pumped through a pipeline, so much more energy has to get expended just to bring it to market. In order to use more than just a small amount in a mixture, car engines have to be designed differently to use it, which means more energy and resources have to go into producing the vehicles.

Every fill of the tank with ethanol uses the same amount of corn a child would eat in a year, and let’s not even talk about the amount of potable water used to grow the corn in the first place. Given the above, which is the better use of the corn?

If we produce ethanol from waste — such as with switchgrass, which shows promise — then no ethical problem would exist, although certainly the efficiency issues would remain. Until then, we should end the push to turn food into fuel, driven by the global-climate-change hysteria and pandering to the agricultural sector. Feed people ahead of cars. Is that really such a difficult concept?

Difficult? NO! But, the folks pushing the climate panic button don’t care about that. Hell, if some peple starve that might even be OK with them. Just listen to how they talk about overpopulation.

Parents of slain soldier sue maker of “Bush Lied” T-shirt

Posted in The scurge of PC on April 23rd, 2008 by gatordoug

As they should, since the consent to use his name was not given to the bottom-feeding Leftists who are making big bucks off this shirt!

Turning KIAs into political props is bad enough; getting rich off it — profits may reach $75,000 in this case — is execrable. Any tort lawyers in the audience want to skim through and weigh in on the likelihood of victory? If the parents can get it to a jury they’re golden, but can they? One of their claims, negligent infliction of emotional distress, is sketchy. Another, intentional infliction of emotional distress, is sturdier, but a judge might use the precedent of the Falwell case to find that the t-shirt maker’s First Amendment rights trump. (Falwell dealt with parody, not political speech, but it’s easy to imagine how a court might extend it.)The real issue for the lawyers has to do with the remaining claim, the right of publicity. I’ve always understood that to be a specie of trademark jurisprudence: Your name and likeness can’t be used without your permission to hawk goods if people would be misled into thinking it was an endorsement. As far as I know, there’s no right of publicity at stake in a shirt that reads “Tom Cruise Sucks” since no one would be misled into thinking Tom Cruise had licensed it. Featuring the names of dead soldiers on an anti-war shirt isn’t quite as cut and dried as that, but I’ve personally never assumed that the families of the fallen have licensed the names and/or images of the troops used in those dopey mosaics of Bush’s face, so in no sense am I really being misled. The question, then, is whether the right at stake is a simple property right — you can’t use anyone else’s name for any reason, period — or whether there has to be some element of trying to “pass off” the name being used as an endorsement. Not sure where the law stands on that, but note what the Smoking Gun says in its introduction about the Arizona statute passed last year. I’m guessing the parents have an uphill climb here.

He avoided the brunt of the contents, stepped off stage for a few minutes, and returned to deliver his speech.The two rushed the stage with the pies, and then threw fliers into the crowd which aired their criticisms of Friedman’s views on the free market and climate change.

Gorezilla, We must change laws to heal the earth

Posted in The scurge of PC on April 23rd, 2008 by gatordoug

UH OH! I think we all know where this line of thinking will lead don’t we?

In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Mr Gore – hailed as the world’s leading green campaigner – said recent polls had found that while people rate climate change as a “serious problem”, some ranked it lower than clearing up dog mess.

“When politicians walk down the pavement, four or five of every ten people they meet ask, ‘What are you doing to solve the climate crisis?’ he said. “If you ask people their opinion, more than two thirds will say, ‘It’s a very serious issue, we’re responsible for it. We need to take action’.

We need action huh? What Gorezilla REALLY means is America must change its evil ways. Take a listen.

And he says that until America acts, the rest of the world, including the UK, will not follow.

Only when his own country moves in the right direction will countries such as China and India take action on climate change.

Mr Gore said: “When the US does change on this issue it will have a tremendous impact on the rest of the world. It’s hard to imagine China and India changing their position if the United States does not.

“Those countries look to the US as an excuse for not acting.” Later this year, China will surpass the US as the largest source of greenhouse gas pollution.

What? Gorezilla blaming America first? Who could possibly see that coming? Now we get to the meat, the stinking red meat of Gorezilla’s Marxuist agenda, GOVERNMENT CONTROL of YOU and YOUR LIFE!

“I have to say the situation has not improved since I made the movie in 2006. Sure, awareness has grown and more people are concerned since scientists said we had just ten years to take action to halt rising sea levels.

“But the situation has got worse. The entire North Polar ice cap is melting and could be gone in some areas in as little as five years.

“You have to ask what would it take to set off the alarm bells to make this a top-of-mind priority in the body politic. If you had told me a few years ago that we would be facing a situation where the entire North Polar ice cap was going to imminently disappear, I might have thought we’d certainly get people’s attention, and yet only to a limited degree.”

So if it’s all down to governments, is there any point in people “going green”? “Absolutely”, he booms. “I believe that while it’s important to change lightbulbs, it’s far more important to change laws.

“The idea that individuals in their own activities are going to change this is wrong.

“But when they do change they are likely to get behind the movement and that is very important because it is going to be changes in law that will ultimately solve this problem.”

Oh, but of course! Big global Marxism to the rescue right Gorezilla? But how about those folks like Gorezilla himself? You know, the loudmouths flying around in private jets leaving Sasquatch-sized carbon footprints? What will Gorezilla demand of the elites?

He wouldn’t dream of suggesting that their lavish jet-setting and gas-guzzling lifestyles could be reined in for the good of the environment.

When we point out that David Beckham has recently been given the dubious title of having the worst carbon footprint in history – clocking up enough air miles to fly to the moon and owning 15 gas-guzzling cars, Mr Gore shifts uncomfortably in his seat.

He knows what is coming next.

When asked what he would say to the football icon – a hero to millions – about his impact on the environment, Mr Gore refuses to be drawn.

He gives a huge belly-laugh at the notion that Posh and Becks could invest in an environmentally-friendly hybrid car such as a Toyota Prius.

He careful considers his answer before saying: “I don’t think that’s my place. I don’t want to get into personally criticising anyone.”

Oh no! Gorezilla would never ever get into criticizing would he? Turns out the only footprint bigger than his carbon print is his hypocrisy footprint!

TEST TUBE MEAT???? Say it ain’t so!

The organization said it would announce plans on Monday for a $1 million prize to the “first person to come up with a method to produce commercially viable quantities of in vitro meat at competitive prices by 2012.”The idea of getting the next Chicken McNugget out of a test tube is not new. For several years, scientists have worked to develop technologies to grow tissue cultures that could be consumed like meat without the expense of land or feed and the disease potential of real meat. An international symposium on the topic was held this month in Norway. The tissue, once grown, could be shaped and given texture with the kinds of additives and structural agents that are now used to give products like soy burgers a more meaty texture.

New Harvest, a nonprofit organization formed to promote the field, says on its Web site, “Because meat substitutes are produced under controlled conditions impossible to maintain in traditional animal farms, they can be safer, more nutritious, less polluting and more humane than conventional meat.”

Damn their black hearts! I will give PETA credibility when, and ONLY when, they start protesting prides of lions and packs of wolves when they hunt!.

The jihadi do-badders have generously allowed kidnapped Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit to write a letter to his parents, which Carter has gallantly volunteered to deliver it.

World leaders to target alcohol

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on April 20th, 2008 by gatordoug

You just had to know THIS was coming!

World leaders are launching a war on alcohol, using as their main weapon the millions of men, women and children whose lives have been destroyed by drink. The World Health Organisation’s global strategy will aim to match the success of campaigns which have made smokers feel guilty about the harm secondhand smoke does to others.

Rather than focusing on the damage drinkers are doing to their own bodies, the WHO wants to highlight the suffering of the innocent victims of drinkdrivers, domestic violence, child abuse and yobbery, this week’s New Scientist reports.
