A Picture Worth A Thousand Insults

Posted on January 14, 2012 by | 5 Comments

A recent spoof of a painting of Marie Antoinette takes a cheap shot at Michelle Obama. That in itself is disturbing. In this case, the altered portrait isn’t just sexist, it’s racist as hell. It’s disrespectful on every level. Maybe they don’t know their history, but Michelle Obama couldn’t be more different than Antoinette. Not that those pesky facts usually get in the way.

latimes.com

Remarks have been made about Michelle Obama’s appearance. What the hell? First of all, how can they be so cheerfully incorrect? She is fit and toned and slender, as anyone with eyes can determine for themselves. Or, as our own Ian Boudreau (@iboudreau) said on Twitter yesterday morning: Rush Limbaugh apparently likes to imply that Michelle Obama is “fat.” And people believe him. I don’t understand how this works. Continue reading →

Using Slavery on Elementary Math Worksheets? Seriously?!

Posted on January 7, 2012 by | 14 Comments

What year is this?

Put this in your WTF pipe and smoke it:

A math worksheet for third graders that used examples of slavery in word problems has angered some parents at a Norcross elementary school, Channel 2 Action News reports.

One word problem stated, “Each tree had 56 oranges. If 8 slaves pick them equally, then how much would each slave pick?” Another said, “If Frederick got two beatings per day, how many beatings did he get in 1 week?”

Such questions can evoke bitter memories in Georgia, where African Americans were enslaved for generations until the Civil War and the elimination of slavery.

“It kind of blew me away,” Christopher Braxton, a parent of a child at Beaver Ridge Elementary School, told Channel 2. “I was furious. … Something like this shouldn’t be embedded into a kid of the third, fourth, fifth, any grade.” Continue reading →

Christian Paramilitary Group Members Arrested for Home Invasion

Posted on December 11, 2011 by | 6 Comments

Burgling for Jesus

Here’s a nugget of WTF to squirrel away in your Christians Do the Darnedest Things file:

Two members of a Christian paramilitary group called “The Savior Unit” were charged with kidnapping and burglary for allegedly conducting a home invasion while clad in ski-masks, military garb and bullet-proof vests.

Michael Shaun Schaffran, 32, and Cody Jacob Rogers, 18, were arrested after allegedly breaking into a home on Tuesday night in Gautier, Mississippi. They were each charged with three counts of kidnapping and burglary of an occupied house, the Sun-Herald reports.

According to police, Schaffran and Rogers dressed up in military gear, ski masks and bullet-proof vests, broke into the house, and attacked the three people who lived there. At the time of the arrest, Schaffran had a knife, though Rogers was unarmed. Continue reading →

Herman Cain Supporters, Rejoice!

Posted on December 5, 2011 by | 5 Comments

In a meandering, cliché-drenched speech that made George W. Bush sound like a world-renowned scholar of the oratorical arts, Republican Herman Cain announced on Saturday, Dec. 3, 2011—a day that will live in infamy thanks to the candidate’s head-scratching paraphrasing of a Pokémon quotation—the immediate suspension, some say permanent, of his pie-in-the-sky presidential campaign.

For those who saw Cain as the everyman candidate, the Average Joe, the overweight/black/male/bald version of Sarah Palin; for those who donated to his campaign, cheered at his rallies and courageously defended his economic, social and foreign policy blunders against the mainstream media’s factual clarifications vicious attacks; and for those whose loyalty didn’t waver even when those lying bitches accused Cain of sexual harassment, philandering and faithlessness to his wife of four decades, do not despair. There is a silver lining to every dark, thunderous, campaign-killing cloud.

In this case it’s the avoidance of post-primary shame from which all ye Republican dipshits would be suffering had karma not intervened and forced Cain’s cheatin’ ass to drop out.

Wal-Mart Shopper Casually Pepper Sprays Other Shoppers

Posted on November 25, 2011 by | 3 Comments

The savings made her do it.

A woman shopping with her two kids at a Wal-Mart in Northridge figured she’d jump on the “casually pepper spray everything” train by pepper spraying other Wal-Mart shoppers to keep them from buying what was constitutionally hers:

A woman who pepper-sprayed other shoppers Thursday night at the Wal-Mart in Porter Ranch had armed herself with the caustic spray to gain an advantage in the fight for merchandise at the Black Friday sale, a fire captain said.

The woman, who is still being sought, used the spray in more than one area of the Wal-Mart “to gain preferred access to a variety of locations in the store,” said Los Angeles Fire Capt. James Carson.

“She was competitive shopping,” he said. Continue reading →

Darth Vader Seeks Free Land in Ukraine to Park His Death Star [update]

Posted on November 18, 2011 by | Leave a comment

40 acres and a Stormtrooper?

STRINGER/RUSSIA/Reuters

Is it just me, or is it a slow news day?  Oh, it’s not just me?  Great.  So you won’t mind a spot of silliness then.

Darth Vader hit up the mayor of a Ukrainian City for some free land recently, citing a law that grants every Ukrainian citizen the right to own 1000 square meters of land.  

Vader claimed that he knew the mayor had switched to the dark side, and that he (Vader) needed somewhere to park his space cruiser.

I KNOW.

You see, city authorities in the Ukrainian Black Sea port of Odessa decided to give away free landplots along the coast of the Black Sea, a move which caused the public to cry foul.  What with city authorities playing favorites in the “Have Some Free Land” sweepstakes, Darth Vader figured there were some shenanigans afoot and, by the hand of Skywalker, he wanted him a piece of the pierogi:

National Review Online: Cain is an 'Authentic' Black, Obama is a 'Metrosexual' Fake

Posted on November 11, 2011 by | 11 Comments

Honestly? With this crap again?

National Review Online published an impossibly stupid article on the travails of one Herman Cain and the sexual assault and harassment allegations that are stacking up against him.  It’s a rambly tl;dr piece that says nothing and makes no recognizable effort to try.  It’s the literary equivalent of the tiny puffs of gas that my dog unwittingly excretes while he sleeps.

The author, some clown who calls himself Victor Davis Hanson, purports to discuss the difference between Cain and President Obama: “Cain’s authenticity vs. Obama’s metrosexual cool”  (Get it, wingnuts?  The Sheriff’s a nigger homo!)

Hanson’s “article” is a pathetic piece of Cain propaganda that attempts to resurrect a golden-child simulacrum of Herman Cain that never existed in the first place, and was merely a figment of the GOP’s addled collective imagination. Where Hanson sees “Black authenticity as defined by Southern mannerisms and darker complexion, amplified by conservatism or traditionalism,” I see unabashed incompetence and the human embodiment of Idiocracy.

You see, Herman Cain is, incontrovertibly, a fool: Continue reading →
