Johnny: Are you Weir boy?

Apparently, Political Correctness is only an expression in English.

French speaking Canadian TV commentators are in hot water for their less-than-enlightened remarks during Johnny Weir’s Olympic performance.

Silly viewers who are under the delusion that the talking heads are there to comment on the sports being played, not on the dress, hair and perceived sexual orientation of the athletes, may want to switch channels.

I watched part of the 2002 Olympic Pairs skating event on French TV, and was shocked at what could pass for “humor”.

At one point they referred to the Chinese silver medalists Pang & Tong as “Ping and Pong”, and at a later time, ribbed that the US pair of Scott & Dulebohn looked like Barbie & Ken dolls.

So much for “Vive la difference!”

The “New Poor”: like Ann Coulter, Karma’s a bitch!

Less than 6 years after the majority of Americans voted Bush into a 2nd term, those same middle class people will soon be poor for the first time in their lives.

America spoke: we wanted fewer government sponsored programs, and now that the economy is ruined, we’re the ones that have no government sponsored programs to help us.

Hair of the dog? Like chronic alcoholics that celebrate a DUI by getting drunk, the chronically stupid middle class is again turning to Republican revolutionaries to dig their hole even deeper. Who’s the Tea Party’s poster girl? Everyone’s favorite mother of 5 who’s also out of a job. Like asking Winona Ryder to watch your clothing store while you pop out for an hour.

Why don’t we just ask Enron to take over Social Security!

US West to US East: We hate you, just cause we do.

Who wouldn’t want beautiful picturesque landscapes preserved and saved from greed based over-development? No one.

Yet the population of the western part of the US is opposed to these designations, well, just because they are. Apparently, they don’t want them just because the idea came from the East.

Kinda hard to argue with someone who’s got no rational side to their views, but there you have it. Eager to cut off their noses just to spite their faces, western conservatives just can’t stand the idea of a black President meddling into national affairs. In their view, Federal Government should stay where it belongs, locally.

Sure is a good thing the West is so pretty, cause it sure is dumb.

Put a Tiger in your Tank – Just Not That Tigger Poof!

That’s right, Exxon hits #1 on HRC’s list of the worst 10 corporations for LGTB employees.

Sharing the top 3 is everyone’s favorite fag-unfriendly family restaurant – Cracker Barrel.

Well, who can blame these businesses who refuse to crumble to homosexuals’ continued search for special rights. Next they’ll we wanting us to give heath insurance and non-discrimination protection for the likes of blacks, jews and women.

Or perhaps they’re just too busy dumping toxins in the air and water to have time to worry about a bunch of spoiled fruits.
