Nude Woman Steals Cars, Probably Not Mormon

It seems odd that Utah keeps popping up on the weirdo radar when citizens are severely under-caffeinated and should be completely exhausted, especially with the multiple-wife deal.This will eventually be a Lifetime movie starring Jennifer Love Hewitt.The plot: A naked woman jumps into the front seat of a guy's car as he was putting up signs on the side of the road and proceeds to motor off. Righteously indignant, sign man springs into naked woman's...

Robert Byrd - Pork Fritter

In the many tributes to Senator Robert Byrd, nearly all mentioned his acumen at bringing home the bacon to West-By-God Virginia.I think Radley Balko said it best:So if I’m correctly reading the various tributes to Sen. Robert Byrd floating around the web this morning, I’m supposed to celebrate how the man atoned for his bigotry earlier in life by devoting the rest of his life to public service . . . where he used other people’s money to build monuments to himse...

Fred Thompson, Sleazy Huckster

It seems like only yesterday that Fred Thompson was sleepwalking his way through a doomed bid to win the Republican nomination and eventually lose to Barack Obama.He was a true small government conservative though, with his fake pick-up truck and ginned up populism. Government needs to get out of the people's biz-ness. Government spending is out of control. Boot-strapping. Law & Order. Blech.Now Fred is shilling for reverse mortgages that target his peers - old folks who can't afford their medicine because Republicans like Thompson keep shitting...

Treme - A Good Man Slips Beneath The Water

Photo courtesy HBOIf you're watching the HBO series Treme and haven't made it to the final two episodes of season one, you might want to stop reading. There are spoiler alerts ahead.It's been a struggle at times to hang with Treme as the first season unfolds. Much like New Orleans itself, Treme has a languid approach to developing the core characters and the settings in which they exist. Change comes slowly in the bayou, except when it doesn't. Most...

Bobby Jindal Confuses Invocation With Reaction

Media coverage of the Gulf oil spill has prominently featured Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal criticizing BP and the Obama administration for a perceived lack of rapid response to the crisis which has led to significant environmental and economic hardship for his state.Let's ignore for a moment Jindal's call to resume deep water drilling and exploration, even though another incident would be catastrophic given that all available response resources...

Chris Dodd Is Happy About Something Or Other

Radley Balko sums it up:"It's a great moment. I'm proud to have been here. No one will know until this is actually in place how it works. But we believe we've done something that has been needed for a long time. It took a crisis to bring us to the point where we could actually get this job done."That's a "teary" Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), on the financial overhaul bill assembled by leaders in both houses this week. So Dodd, the chair of the committee with jurisdiction over the bill, has no idea how the bill work. Which also means he has no idea...

Political Arm Twisting

If I'm to understand the current right-wing outrage being fanned by lazy media types, President Obama was slow to react to the oil spill and was a weak-kneed, spineless jellyfish for not meeting with BP's CEO, right up to the point of Obama's sit-down with Tony Hayward that secured BP's commitment to funding a $20 billion escrow fund.At that moment, Obama transformed into a Chicago thug employing political arm-twisting that violates the Constitution.Obama...

Or will Marja remain bloody for a long time, allowing insurgents to inflict sustained losses on American units...
