Democratic Towers of Jello

These are the Democratic senators who think a piece of multicolored cloth trumps the First Amendment.

Baucus (D-MT)
Bayh (D-IN)
Dayton (D-MN)
Feinstein (D-CA)
Johnson (D-SD)
Landrieu (D-LA)
Lincoln (D-AR)
Menendez (D-NJ)
Nelson (D-FL)
Nelson (D-NE)
Reid (D-NV)
Salazar (D-CO)
Stabenow (D-MI)

I can understand the Republicans (with three exceptions, amazingly enough) voting to further squelch expressions of political dissent, but for these thirteen Democrats to play to the worst impulses of voters makes me puke. I'll burn some extra flags in their names for emphasis.

Opposition party my crusty ass.

On the Fourth of July

The Fourth of July used to be my favorite holiday--completely secular, celebratory, firecrackers, picnics, parades, and sack races. But now that's it's really nothing more than a jingoistic jerk-off festival for chickenshit chickenhawks, wannabe fascists, and soccer moms who think SUVs are their divine right by God, I think maybe I'll do something different.

Given the great threat to our way of life that the US Senate is now bravely confronting, I'm going to do something that only a true patriot would do.

I'm going to burn the flag, right after I flush a Bible down the toilet. Join me, won't you, in asserting the First Amendment before these assholes flush it down the toilet with their idiotic amendment.

Trust me--it will make you feel a whole lot better.
