And You Thought Michael Voris (the Vortex) was Scary?
By · CommentsWell, if Flashy thought a Catholic dictatorship was spooky (and it absolutely is) just consider Glenn Beck and his crowd of religious extremists that descended upon Washington, D.C. the other day…
This is a nightmare on the Potomac, and this is precisely what Sarah Palin and the rest of the Repulsivecans are up to. At the end of the day, they don’t give a rip nor understand what capitalism is, and what it requires. All they care about is instituting their evangelical Christian mythology upon the masses.
Beck and Palin, and so many of the rest of these so-called Tea Partiers, are repulsive throwbacks to exactly that which brought us Obama.
Four thoughts for the day..
By · Comments1. Islam is not a religion. It is a political ideology.
2. The only good Muslim is one who doesn’t take it seriously.
3. The only good Muslim who takes it seriously is a dead one.
4. The only good foreign policy is one that kills him.
Not sure who originally penned these thoughts, but there they are for consumption by OTBL viewers..
Ground Zero Muslim center may get public financing …
Yup, it’s true.. and according to the article (link) the New York City Comptroller is willing to consider approving the public subsidy!
……………………. Holy. Shit.

And THIS guy gets to vote! Now that’s what’s stunning here…
Hudson Mayor Dean Knudson appoints new Library Czar
In a bold move that has baffled many of his one-time supporters, Hudson Mayor Dean Knudson has appointed local communist Roy Sjoberg to the Hudson Joint Library Board. Immediately following his appointment, Mr. Sjoberg declared that he was now the Library Czar and appointed a 23 member Task Farce to determine how much taxes needed to be raised to meet the wishes of the lunatic liberals that reside in Hudson.
For those of you unfamiliar with Playboy Roy Sjoberg, he is very adept at reaching in his neighbors’ pockets to confiscate their wealth. He has advocated for every major tax increase and referendum held in Hudson. He is also the only person to head up not just one, but TWO 23 member task farces.
When not reaching into his neighbors’ pockets for more money, Playboy Roy has been know to reach his hand onto many a young lady around town, if you know what I mean…..
Dr. Diana Hsieh writes today:
Once again, the religious right is launching a massive assault on reproductive rights in Colorado — and in other states too — by demanding for full legal rights for fertilized eggs. Ari Armstrong and I are asking for your help to fund an updated policy paper explaining the moral and practical evils of Colorado’s new “personhood” amendment.
In 2008, the theocrats of the religious right gathered the requisite signatures to put a “personhood” amendment on Colorado’s ballot. Known as Amendment 48, this proposed amendment to the state constitution sought to define a fertilized egg as a person with full legal rights in the Colorado constitution. Amendment 48 was defeated resoundingly with 73% against and 27% in favor.
Unfortunately, the crusade for “personhood” did not perish with Amendment 48. Instead, the crusaders went national, expanding the activity of Personhood USA to over 30 states. They’re back in Colorado for the 2010 election with Amendment 62, a slightly modified version of Amendment 48.

One wonders why? This particular sign speaks to a truth that people need to contemplate.. I think it was cowardly and irrational to remove this billboard.

EDITORIAL: Toy story
The pompous fascists at the egregiously misnamed “Center for Science in the Public Interest” resurfaced this week to announce a brand new shakedown of McDonald’s.
Unless the fast-food giant agrees to stop distributing toys with its Happy Meals, the group says it will move forward with a lawsuit charging that the company “unfairly and deceptively” markets its products toward children.
Michael Jacobson, executive director of the Center, says McDonald’s marketing is so powerful that “worn down” parents can’t be trusted to properly monitor their own children.
Why that is any business of Mr. Jacobson and his ilk remains a mystery.

June 14th, 2005
By · CommentsA couple weeks will mark the 5th anniversary of the infamous June 14th School Board meeting at Hudson High School where Curt Weese was unceremoniously denied his 1st Amendment Right to Free Speech..
Hudson, Wisconsin, School Board Meeting
June 14, 2005
(Unofficial transcript begins 42 minutes 34 seconds into meeting. Not proofread as of 12:30 p.m. Saturday, June 26, 2005.)
Annette Cook: Next item on our agenda is topics for discussion, Item No. 7, we do not have anything listed there this evening. So we will move onto Item 8, Citizens Request to Speak to the Board on Non-Agenda Items. It is at this time in our meeting that citizens can address the Board on items not listed on our agenda. We would ask these people to come forward again give their name and address for the record and comments this section is limited to 15 minutes total time. The first citizen is Curt Weese.
Curt Weese: My name is Curt Weese, and I live at 613 Cedar Drive North, a letter was written to the Star Observer this past week berating taxpayers for asking for information. The board member who wrote this letter seems to feel that he should be able to determine which information is useful and which is not. Let me remind that board member that this is not his function, nor should it be. Let me also remind this board member that no publicly, that to publicly ridicule those asking for information flies in the face of what the open records law is meant to do. Let me also remind this board member of a few items that were discovered via the open records law. It was discovered through an open records request that we have a huge fund balance which this year should top $17 million. Where was this board member during that time? He was a member of the Finance Committee and made no effort to inform the public of this reserve balance. In addition, he allowed a vote to be taken on a $25 million referendum in 2003 without disclosing this to the public. It was discovered through an open records request that we indeed have no space crunch at the Middle School and will in fact have fewer students there this year than two years ago. Where was this board member during that time. He was allowing Ron Bernth to mislead the public through a mailing and misinformation presented at the October 2002 School Board meeting that stated otherwise. It was discovered through an Open Records request that the Teachers Union refuses to allow the district to bid out health insurance. Where was this board member during that time? He voted to allow the Union to take us to referendum in 2001 for a teachers pay levy override, and he voted again in 2004 to go above and beyond the qualified economic offer.
Annette Cook: Mr. Weese, excuse me, Im sorry for interrupting but youre bringing up a lot of different topics, and your request to speak was on Request for Information so it asks you to,
Curt Weese: Thats what Im talking about
Annette Cook: Rather than going off on all different topics, and if you have a particular
Curt Weese: Do you have a, Am I being limited to my right to speak?
Annette Cook: Mr. Weese, I was not finished speaking.
Curt Weese: Neither was I.
You can review the balance of this tawdry episode of government hacks verses a local citizen HERE.. And after you have read through the transcript please bear in mind that in the back of the auditorium an armed police officer forced Curt Weese, who was doing nothing at the time other than sitting listening to Mark Pribonic and Marion Shaw, to leave the premises… I have a hard time referring the police officer as such, he was a pathetic punk …. can’t even remember the fool’s name!
