Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Oh Look, The Human Slop Bucket Speaks


Madonna is the latest artist to criticize the Boy Scouts' ban on gays, and she did so in a colorful way, appearing in a Boy Scout uniform at the GLAAD Media Awards this weekend.
At the awards, sponsored by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation Saturday in New York City, Madonna, there to present an award to talk-show host and CNN-anchor Anderson Cooper, joked on stage that she wanted to join the Boy Scouts but was rejected.
"I think that's f-ed up," she said. "I can build a fire. I know how to pitch a tent. I have a very good sense of direction. I can rescue kittens from trees."
Madonna subsequently declared, "I think they should change their stupid rules."
The group last month decided to delay its vote on whether to lift the ban on gays until May to allow for more time to review the policy.
Carly Rae Jepsen and Train recently pulled out of the Boy Scout Jamboree because of the organization's stance on gays.
Madonna didn't just address the Boy Scouts at GLAAD's awards show. She also spoke out against bullying, discrimination and acts of violence.
"I can't take this sh- anymore," she said. "That is why I want to start a revolution. It's 2013, people. We live in America, land of the free, home of the brave? That's a question, not a statement."
Madonna presented Cooper with the Vito Russo Award, given to "openly lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender media professionals who have made a significant difference in promoting equality."

Dear media peoples,
That is not a Boy Scout uniform, it is a cub scout shirt with all the patches in the wrong places.
And who really cares what a washed up has-been has to say about anything anyway?

The sad part is, with this administration I wouldn't doubt it.


Karzai Accuses U.S. of Taliban Collusion

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel was greeted on his first visit to Afghanistan since taking office by suicide bombs, threats and Afghan President Hamid Karzai’s accusation that the U.S. is colluding with the Taliban.
As Hagel prepared to leave a U.S. military compound in Kabul on March 9, a Taliban suicide bomber blew himself up outside the Ministry of Defense, and another suicide bomb detonated in Khost province. Yesterday, Karzai said that those attacks, which together killed 19 people, aided U.S. goals. A joint Hagel-Karzai press conference at the presidential palace was canceled for what Pentagon officials said were security reasons.

Douche Bag Hugo Chavez Dead (Good)

Analyst estimates Chavez family fortune at around $2 Billion 

Criminal Justice International Associates (CJIA), a risk assessment and global analysis firm in Miami, estimated in a recent report that the Chávez Frías family in Venezuela has “amassed a fortune” similar to that of the Castro brothers in Cuba.
According to Jerry Brewer, president of CJIA, “the personal fortune of the Castro brothers has been estimated at a combined value of around $2 billion.”
“The Chávez Frías family in Venezuela has amassed a fortune of a similar scale since the arrival of Chávez to the presidency in 1999,” said Brewer in an analysis published in their website.
Brewer said that Cuba is receiving about $5 billion per year from the Venezuelan treasury and in oil shipments and other resources.
“We believe that organized bolivarian criminal groups within the Chávez administration have subtracted around $100 billion out of the nearly $1 trillion in oil income made by PDVSA since 1999.”
