Stumbled on to Bryan’s post over at HotAir this morning. The picture below says it all:

The caption reads:

From L-R are: Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Frances Townsend, White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten, and Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Karen Hughes.

Honestly, is it just me, or does this picture make other freedom loving Americans throw up in their mouths a little?

I stated the following over at Foehammer’s in response to the women on President Bush’s staff covering their heads at a mosque:

Are you freaking kidding me?! First of all, I wouldn’t step foot in a mosque unless I was on some mission of hunting terrorist or something. Second of all, if I were to step foot in a mosque, I’d walk in pig crap and then NOT take my shoes off, but wipe my feet all over the freaking floor. Third of all, if I was with some chauvinist pig who requested I cover my head with some sort of scarf, I’d take the scarf and shove it down their freaking throat.

Yes, that sounds harsh and we are requested to respect other religions. Well, I draw the line when it comes to a radical cult that wants me dead or honor killed. I cannot express my distaste for this entire incident in words. Though I did give it one heck of a try.

I stand by it too. I had great respect for Karen Hughes, but this is disgusting.

Is it Friday already? It seems like such a short week, but this means the weekend is near!

This week’s award goes out to No2Liberals and is in reply to a socialist loving troll who visited on of all days, Independence Day. (Oh the irony):

So if I follow your reading list, then I will come to think as you do, and believe as you do?
I like to set goals, and pursuing the goal of being pathetic, just doesn’t seem reasonable, to me.

O teach me how I should forget to think.
