“If any Republican is elected president —- and I think obviously I would be the best at this —- we will remain on offense and will anticipate what [the terrorists] will do and try to stop them before they do it,” Giuliani said.
America’s Republican President Dumbshit:
This isn’t really news, but Giuliani has joined the legion of politicians who will do anything or say anything to get elected. Having praised God for sending America the worst, most incompetent, most venal and overreaching President in our nation’s history at the 2004 GOP National convention, it’s amazing he can still flap his vapid pie hole as he jerks off the fearmongering, neoconservative Right in order to try to demagogue his way to the White House.
The more I reflect on the utter banality and dishonesty of this hack’s current talking points, the more embarassed I am that ever had an ounce of respect for this man.
“I want you to see what I see,” says Beauty Turner, after leading the group off the bus to a weedy lot where the Robert Taylor Homes once stood. “To hear the voices of the voiceless.”
the car in front of me had a license plate holder that read: “FIGHT LIKE A REAL MAN. GET ON YOUR KNEES AND PRAY” alongside a truth-fish-devouring-darwin-fish emblem.
HOUSTON - A prison inmate mistakenly released 36 years early was re-arrested after approaching his victim in a bar and apologizing for shooting him in the head.
Willie Joe McAdams had been sentenced to 40 years in prison for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, but because of a clerical error, he was released in May after just four years, said Michelle Lyons, a Texas Department of Criminal Justice spokeswoman.
McAdams shot Cedric Thomas in a sports bar in March 2003, blinding him in one eye. Thomas was stunned when McAdams approached him in a bar during the July 4 weekend, shook Thomas’ hand and apologized.
Alex: That road-rage incident was the right thing to do. Your stars are aligned this weekend and an unexpected windfall in the form of a checkout clerk’s mistake is possible. Avoid public parks that have sporting events; if you must gamble do it through your bookie. That’s not Ed McMahon at your door - it’s your paperboy that you have forgotten for a few weeks now. Offer him liquor so your deliveries don’t stop.
Paul: Remember, you are absolutely right. If anyone argues with you, remind them of your superiority or cuff them upside the head. Should you shoplift this weekend, Venus will look favorably on you and you will not set off security alarms. That item under your fridge is a dead mouse.
RodMe: Light a candle in honor of James Coburn this weekend. Leo in your financial sector may cause you spend needlessly on take out or delivered meals. Try to spend time in the kitchen but avoid canned sardines - you may have unexpected accidents with the can. A relative may tell you a secret, be prepared and medicate beforehand.

Forcing fish to listen to Uriah Heep? That’s torture!
HELSINKI (Reuters) - A Finnish researcher is to study fish in an aquarium while a rock group performs nearby, to see if the sound causes any ill-effects or distress.
Bands including ageing rockers Uriah Heep will perform on Friday night to about 3,000 fans in a tent just a couple of dozen metres away from the aquarium.
“I will be looking for any abnormal behaviour or activity,” said researcher Mikko Erkinaro.
The 500,000-litre tank is home to salmon, trout, pike and perch and other species common in Finland’s brackish coastal waters.
“It could be quite nasty to arrange such an aquarium and a performance venue (so close),” Erkinaro said, “especially when the (band) is a bit old-fashioned.”
