Seig Heil Pope!

Papal hopeful is a former Hitler Youth

Heil Pope! Dah bod-ee of Christ goot, yah? Yah.

from Salon:Politics - Tom DeLay vs. the World Wide Web

OK, so we know that Tom DeLay isn't all that fond of crazy activist judges like, say, the seven Republican appointees to the U.S. Supreme Court who went along with the "murder" of Terri Schiavo. And we know that DeLay is particularly unhappy with Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy for his votes to uphold Roe v. Wade, to end the execution of juveniles and to overturn laws banning private, consensual sex among men.

But what we didn't know is that DeLay was outraged by the fact that Kennedy uses . . . the internet. As the Associated Press notes, DeLay said during a TV interview Tuesday: "We've got Justice Kennedy writing decisions based upon international law, not the Constitution of the United States? That's just outrageous. And not only that, but he said in session that he does his own research on the Internet? That is just incredibly outrageous."

We're not sure we understand what's got the Hammer all hot and bothered. Maybe he thinks Kennedy is spending time at certain kinds of Web sites that aren't exactly Westlaw. Or maybe it's an objection to the internet more generally: When you and your political allies want to roll back the cultural clock to some earlier, darker day, the World Wide Web probably isn't something that sits right with you. If that's the case, we've got a tip for the house majority leader, and it's something he'll want to get on right away. We hear that, when Sandra Day O'Connor does her legal research, she actually reads under the light of an incandescent bulb.

American we stand as one... what a crock

of steaming crap.

This has got to be the dumbest shit I've seen in a long time. This 80's leftover toilet paper scrap is clearly out to take a ride on the "support our troups" money line.
