People defending the indefensible

What the hell is wrong with Whoopi Goldberg?

First she defends Roman Polanski, saying that what he committed wasn't "'Rape' rape."

Now she has "a lot of questions" for the women accusing Bill Cosby of drugging and raping them?

Whoopi Goldberg: “I have a lot of questions” for Bill Cosby rape accusers

"The View" co-hosts expressed general skepticism that Cosby raped more than a dozen women over several decades

“Quite honestly, you know, look, I’m sorry, having been on both sides of this where people allege that you do something, it doesn’t matter now,” Goldberg said. “The cat is out of the bag, people have it in their heads. I have a lot of questions for the lady. Maybe she’ll come on.”

You know, I could see maybe if it was one woman. Maybe if there was only one woman saying that Bill Cosby had drugged and raped her, maybe you might think she was a deranged fan or something, but it's been like 12 or 13 different women with very similar stories. And you have "a lot of questions?"

Although Whoopi's "lot of questions" probably aren't as bad as Don Lemon's one question.
Interviewing one of Cosby's accusers, Lemon actually had the gall to ask this:

LEMON: And you said he made you perform oral sex.
TARSHIS: Right.
LEMON: You -- you know, there are ways not to perform oral sex if you didn't want to do it.
TARSHIS: Oh. Um, I was kind of stoned at the time, and quite honestly, that didn't even enter my mind. Now I wish it would have.
LEMON: Right. Meaning the using of the teeth, right?
TARSHIS: Yes, that's what I'm thinking you're --
LEMON: As a weapon.
TARSHIS: Yeah, I didn't even think of it.
LEMON: Biting. So, um --
TARSHIS: Ouch.
LEMON: Yes. I had to ask. I mean, it is, yeah.

No. No you didn't. You absolutely did not have to ask. The only person who might possibly feel compelled to ask that question would be Bill Cosby's defense attorney and I gotta think even he would say "no, I'm a sleazebag lawyer, but even I have my limits."

Charles Manson gets license to wed 26-year-old he said he wouldn't marry

It's just a shame that California's recognition of same-sex marriage has cheapened this sacred union.

Idiot Boycotts Women, Women Probably Not All That Heartbroken

So some individual decided to respond to my last post with an explanation of why he is "boycotting" American women. I assume he is "boycotting" them in much the same way that I am refusing to play Major League Baseball. Except that Major League Baseball is probably not creeped out by me and thankful for my refusal to participate.

Anyway, he included a link to his website, http://www.boycottamericanwomen.com/. So what was I gonna do, not check it out?

It did not disappoint.

Boycott American Women

Why American Men Should Boycott American Women

I am an American man, and I have decided to boycott American women. In a nutshell, American women are the most likely to cheat on you, to divorce you, to get fat, to steal half of your money in the divorce courts, don’t know how to cook or clean, don’t want to have children, etc. Therefore, what intelligent man would want to get involved with American women?

Well, I'm gonnna say about 80-90% of American men?

Also, in what country do women (or men) not cheat, get divorced, gain weight, etc?

Maybe?

 This blog is my attempt to explain why I feel American women are inferior to foreign women (non-American women), and why American men should boycott American women, and date/marry only foreign (non-American) women.

Because there are obviously women of many nations just lining up to date and marry the kind of American men who think they're too good for American women!

 

 He hates all the women in his country? We're on our way!

American women are generally immature, selfish, extremely arrogant and self-centered, mentally unstable, irresponsible, and highly unchaste. The behavior of most American women is utterly disgusting, to say the least.

Right. And the guy who thinks he's too good for every one of the 150 million women in this nation is obviously extremely mature, selfless, humble, altruistic and mentally sound. And you're seriously going to complain about women being "unchaste?" You do know that's the only way you get to have sex, right? If women are being all "chaste," only gay men get to have any sex.  And if the women of America are being "highly unchaste," and most of these women are hetero, that means American men must also be pretty darned "unchaste" themselves.

So, here's the first article on his site:

Why do so many Jewish men marry Asian women?

Has anyone else noticed how common it is to see Jewish men with Asian women? 

Um, no. No I haven't. Of course, I don't go around checking the ethnicity of every couple I run across because I'm not a psychotic racist asshole, but okay, I'll take your word for it. Let's say there are a lot of Jewish man / Asian woman couples out there. So what?

I have a theory as to why this is. Jewish American women tend to be some of the worst bitches on earth. 

Wow! WOW! That happened so quickly! It took all of one sentence to go full-on mysogynist and anti-Semite! I don't understand why American women don't love this guy!

Loud, control freaks, obnoxious, crazy, and just outright nasty vicious toxic people. Jewish men thus learn from a young age to dislike Jewish women, starting with their own mothers.

Yes. Jewish men just haaaaaate their mothers. Obviously.

I can only think of a couple of Jewish women that I actually know personally, but neither of them could be described as loud, obnoxious, nasty, vicious or toxic. Granted, that's not a very large sample, so I Googled "Famous Jewish women" and oh my God, look at these loud, vicious, obnoxious ladies!





Ugh! Who would ever want to marry one of them?

Are you maybe basing your view of Jewish women on reruns of Judge Judy?

 

'cuz, yeah, she can be a bit of a control freak.

Therefore Jewish men look for the OPPOSITE of a Jewish American woman, and that would be a submissive, polite, beautiful Asian woman.

Um, you think Asian women are "submissive?" Have you met any?

 

So delicate!

Out of all the Jewish men I know, practically all of them are either married to an Asian woman or are actively looking for an Asian woman to marry. To them all, I say congratulations and may you all be happy with your Asian wives! G-d bless!

And then, I swear to God, he includes THIS picture!

Because, yeah, that's a great example! You know how Jewish men love to marry their girlfriends' adopted daughters!

So sorry, American women. This guy is "boycotting" you! Try not to let it break your hearts.

Who's Stupider?

You know what we haven't done in a while?
We haven't played "Who's Stupider?"


Who's Stupider?


Let's play!

Contestant #1: Ted Cruz.



Ted hails from Canada, where he likes being a delusional asshole and mis-understanding children's books.

Ted, what do ya got for us today?




Wow! Well played, Ted! What you've basically said here is "I don't understand what net neutrality is and also I don't understand what Obaamcare is, but I'm sure I hate both of them." Also, pretending that Obamacare isn't working, which it is despite your party's continual attempts at sabotage? Nice touch!

The level of ignorance, actual or feigned, in this this statement is really stunning. Contestant # 2 has his work cut out for him.


Contestant # 2: Lindsay Graham.




Lindsay hails from one of the Carolinas ( the bad one) where his hobbies include thinking up new countries that need invading and being totally, completely a heterosexual woman-loving macho man!

Lindsey? Have at it!

Lindsey Graham Accuses President Obama Of Acting Like A 'Spoiled Child'

 

Hmm, okay. That's a lot of projection, coming from one of the chief crybabies of the Congressional tantrum caucus, but you're going to need a bit more stupid to beat Ted Cruz.

 He [Obama]'s completely tone deaf as to the results of this election. Even those who didn't vote Mr. President are polled about your policies. They don't like them any more than the people who did vote. So if he goes it alone on immigration I think not only will it poison the well but there will be a backlash against him that will flow over on Democrats yet again.

Dang!  Pretending that the well hasn't been poisoned over and over again by you and your Republican colleagues? And pretending that the people who stayed home on election day caount as votes for your side? I don't know, that just seems more dishonest than stupid.

GRAHAM: Well, we've got a lot of bills that came from the House to the Senate with bipartisan support from the House that died in the Senate, the Keystone pipeline. I want to take the defense cuts under sequestration which will gut our military and replace them with something more balanced. There are so many areas out there that we could work together. 

Okay, pretending that defense cuts would "gut" the largest, most bloated military the world has ever seen? Now that's pretty stupid! But pretending that there is the slightest possibility of Republicans being willing to work with the President? I believe we have a tie!

And this tie can only be broken American Idol style, by audience voting. Leave your votes in the comments!

They finally found some voter fraud!

They finally found the reprehensible felon responsible for defrauding the American electoral system!

And it's this lady:

Young Mother Arrested For Voting In Iowa

By karoli November 11, 2014 6:30 am



You see, this nice lady went down to the election place and registered to vote and then actually voted even though, unbeknownst to her, she was not actually allowed to do those things. Which might not sound like all that serious a crime, but. . .

Two months after I cast my ballot as a civics lesson for my daughter, the Iowa Department of Criminal Investigation agents parked across the street from my house, questioned me, and eventually arrested me and charged me with voter fraud.

  Which carries a sentence of up to FIFTEEN YEARS!

Of course, all of this horribly fraudulent fraud could have been prevented if only Iowa has a voter ID law. . . oh, wait. . .
They do.

And yet, this dangerous criminal was able to register and vote, just as she would have been had there not been a voter ID law, then someone with too much time on his hands checked the voter rolls against  state criminal records, just as they could have done had there been no ID law and found a match, just as they could have done without a voter ID law and then decided for some ungodly reason to have this woman arrested for doing what many consider her civic duty. Just as they could have done without a voter ID law. You don't need a voter ID law to catch dangerously felonious felons like Kelli Jo Griffin, you just have to be the kind of asshole who hates when people get to vote.

Oh, and the reason she doesn't get to vote? Let her explain:

Let me explain: When I was convicted on a nonviolent drug charge in 2008, my defense attorney told me that once I served my probation, I would regain my right to vote automatically – correct information at the time. But Gov. Terry Branstad suddenly changed the rules in 2011, and now all citizens with a felony conviction lose their voting rights for life. 

Now, I'm no legal expert, but how is that not an ex post facto law? Shouldn't that only apply to people convicted after 2011? Any lawyers out there want to enlighten me?



Anyway, it's reassuring to see that the right-wing wasn't just being total dicks about voting. They actually were protecting our democracy from an actual, serious threat.

This lady:
