In 2006, Nikki Tinker refused to say where she stood on any actual issues in the congressional primary, instead allowing surrogates to attack Steve Cohen for (a) not being black and (b) ridiculous misinterpretations of bills he voted for.
And in 2007, she still refuses to speak out on the issues, deigning to do the attack [...]

Imagine if you will two scenarios:
Senator Larry Craig is allowed to enter into a civil union, perhaps even a gay marriage, with the man of his choice. His personal life remains unremarkable, and he lives out his days pushing a conservative agenda while going to a stable home every chance he gets.OR
Senator Larry Craig [...]
And when she grows up…

First, it was Turd Blossom, the “Boy Genius”, an operative with a predilection for leaks and a mean streak longer than our border with Mexico. Be it little girls, US Attorneys that believed that the justice system should not be misappropriated for partisan purposes, or Democrats in general, there was no one he wouldn’t [...]
Hope Runner

As many as you know may already know, our dear friend and star marathon runner Stacy is raising funds to support the Komen Arkansas Race for the Cure on October 20, 2007 in the fight against breast cancer. She will be participating in this race as well (go girl!).
According to the information she provided, [...]
Good Thing We Let Idiots Have Guns In This Country.
Posted in Allen S. Davis, Guns, NRA, Rachel Berezinsky, Rodney Peairs, Yoshihiro Hattori on August 22, 2007 | 16 Comments »
The problem with our lack of gun control in this nation is that many of our people are idiots, and we place destructive firepower in their hands.
Allen S. Davis was sentenced last month to 19 years in prison after pleading guilty in a shooting incident on his front lawn. A jury would have had [...]
The Rise of the Crony Capitalist
Posted in Bush's Crony Capitalism, China, cronyism, lead paint, toys on August 22, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Q. Why would a Chinese toy manufacturer put toxic levels of lead into the toys that American children play with?
A. Because they can.
Current federal regulations allow lead paint to be used to coat children’s toys just as long as the lead content is six parts per million or less, which frankly, always seemed [...]
Israel And Egypt Are Turning Away Refugees From Darfur
Posted in Darfur, Darfur Genocide, Egypt, Israel on August 19, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Okay, this is insane.
Earlier this month, Israel’s Channel 10 interviewed Israeli soldiers who said they had witnessed Egyptian security officers executing several Darfur refugees.
According to Channel 10, their testimonies were backed up by Israeli military security cameras that showed Egyptian soldiers shooting and killing several asylum-seekers.
Channel 10 did not air the video.
So [...]

The Rapture is a funny thing.
There’s no solid scriptural foundation for it. The origin of the modern day ideal of it is that a fifteen-year-old girl living in Scotland in 1830 had a “vision” and sent it around to church authorities. Many of them dismissed it, but over the last 177 years, [...]
God Stuff. 8/18/07
Posted in God Stuff, Robert Breaud on August 18, 2007 | 1 Comment »
In another ongoing segment here at Casa de Freedonian, we’re going to make fun of Christians.
Not the kind that actually pay attention to the words written in red in most Bibles who actually do good works, feed the hungry, and heal the sick.
No, we want to make fun of the crazy ones.
Last night, I was [...]
Iraq’ed! for 8/18/07
Posted in Donald Rumsfeld, Iraq, Iraq'ed on August 18, 2007 | 2 Comments »
This is the beginning of a new feature here at La Casa de Freedonian.
In a further effort to help everyone remember that if the White House, its media allies, and its congressional allies tell you it’s a sunny day, you really shouldn’t leave home without an umbrella.
Fun with WikiScanner

This edit would actually be pretty funny, except that it came from inside a CIA office. Pope Fonzie?
Someone apparently has a loathing for Steve Cohen that is on par with their loathing of the English language. Spelling and grammatical goofs are left intact and would seem to indicate “Freeper”.
Cohen is also apparently in [...]

… can we please shut down the federal government’s attempts to profile and find terrorists and let the NYPD train them on how to do it right?
The NYPD’s intelligence unit is headed up by a CIA analyst with 35 years of experience. The federal government’s current DCIA is a former military man who has [...]
Better Not Pout, I’m Telling You Why…

The Behavior Detection Officers are now being deployed inside airports. It is their job to study the facial expressions of people at the airport to discern the people who are stifling their anger over long wait times and lost luggage from the people who are stifling their anger before launching a terrorist attack.
The TSA hopes [...]
Men of God or Men of Violence?
Posted in Rep. Steve Cohen on August 16, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Reading a piece of legislation is not the most difficult task in the world. Particularly HR. 1592. If you can read the New Testament and not be zoned out by the time you’re halfway through the “begats”, then surely you can grasp this.
So I think we can cast aside the notion that [...]
The Unfunniest Half Hour On Television Is No More.
Posted in Fox News, Half Hour News Hour on August 15, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Fox announced yesterday that they could no longer polish the turd that was the “Half Hour News Hour” (Strangely titled— It’s actually more news than there is to be found in the Fox programming day).
Media Bistro republished the Fox News memo from Bill Shine:
While HHNH performed admirably in the ratings and Kurt Long and Jennifer [...]

Andrew Eder at KnoxNews posted yesterday about the new WikiScanner, a tool that cross references the IP addresses of people that edit Wikipedia entries with those changes to tell us who is actually making the changes— A good idea, as anyone can go in and change an entry. This was in the KnoxNews piece:
