  Best Gore — Authority: 125
  What a shame to go down like this, still strapped to a fucking accordion you were playing just before you took a shot to the skull. But then again, maybe he loved his accordion dearly in which case playing it would have been the last thing he did before he died. There is no picture showing actual wound but it must ...

  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478
  I think I better start following the climate change debate if this is any example of the hilarity coming out of it. The climate-flavoured asshattery continued apace this week, rising to a screeching crescendo on Thursday when the Drudge Report mistakenly linked to a post at Scienceblogs’ Deltoid with the ...

  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478
  Dammit Janet has come up with the “ Maurice Vellacott Award ” — an honour recognizing leadership in what DJ calls “gynophobia” (which I think is probably the irrational fear of women managing their own reproductive systems).   It kind of reminds me of Andrew Sullivan’ s awards that are named after ...

  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478
  Let the squeals of misplaced outrage begin: Oh, boo hoo hoo! All this self-pitying outrage from the Queen of the Rabid , Rancid , Maggot-Infested , Shit-stained Smear herself. There was no “smear” in this case.  The possibility that some brain-damaged right-wing fruitbag might have killed ...

• The American Taliban in action

  
  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478
  The Catholic church has always carried an absurd amount of political clout in the US. For evidence, look no further than their recent attempt to stick their noses into the health care debate and use health care reform as an opportunity to limit access to abortion, something they still haven’t given up on .   ...

• Why do teabaggers hate the Fetus?

  
  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478

  unrepentant old hippie — Authority: 478
  If you haven’t had your fill of Wild-Eyed Shitcrazy Bonkers for the week, at Wingnut Daily the deranged Ken Hutcherson begins an unhinged anti-gay screed by hinting at some upcoming craze-a-liciousness: It has been said loudly and proudly that gay marriage is a civil -rights issue.
