Save Marriage - It’s Up To You!

An Action Alert from AmericaBlog.com - watch the video, some poor straight person’s marriage may depend on it.

Here’s what you’ll see on the video:  Marriage is under attack - by Republicans who get blown by hookers, have trysts with lobbyists, dump their wives and families, strangle their lovers, call gay sex lines, and engage in acts of gay and straight sodomy. John Aravosis challenges the GOP to put up or shut up by signing the PTV Marriage Protection Pledge.

You’ve Been A Bad Boy - Go Play On The Highway

And Texas wants to pass a law so that gay people can’t even foster children.  You know, I don’t think it’s gay people we have to worry about.

Mom held after police say she left son on road, hit him with car Associated Press FALLS CHURCH, VA. - A mother was under arrest on child endangerment and other charges Wednesday after authorities said she abandoned her 4-year-old son on the Capital Beltway, then struck him with her car when he tried to get back in. The boy was treated at a hospital for cuts and bruises, police said, and handed over to a child protective services agency. Police picked him up after receiving a call late Tuesday night from a motorist who said she had found a child wandering along Interstate 495. “I said, ‘Why are you out here?’ And he said, ‘My mommy left me. She was angry and she pushed me out of the car,’ ” the driver, who asked not to be identified, told WJLA-TV. Virginia State Police said an investigation determined that Channoah Alece Green, 22, of Newport News, Va., abandoned the boy along the highway after she became upset with him. “As she attempted to drive off, the child was trying to get back in the vehicle and was knocked down,” said Sgt. J.L. Doss. That led to a hit-and-run charge. State police said they found Green after she was involved in a two-car accident on Interstate 95, north of Richmond, Va., later Tuesday night.

Unbelievable - And People Don’t Want *Us* To Have Kids

Mother of drunken baby charged

BARTLESVILLE, Okla. An Oklahoma woman who allegedly drank so much that she gave birth to a drunk baby is charged with child neglect. A police affidavit says Melissa Tanner had a blood alcohol content of point-two-nine percent when she gave birth June 30th. Police say the baby girl was at point-two-one percent. Hospital staff had to use an oxygen bag to help the baby start breathing and gave her medication to counteract any narcotics. Police say Tanner told them she and another person had just polished off a case of beer—and that she regularly drank during pregnancy. A sheriff’s investigator says the baby has fetal alcohol syndrome. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists the syndrome as the leading preventable cause of mental retardation and physical deformity. The severity of the girl’s disability won’t be known until she is older.

Idiot of the Day - Jeb Bush

Aw, it’s nice to share the idiocy wealth in the Bush family occasionally.

Just before Father’s Day, Gov. Jeb Bush announced that he wanted every public school in Florida to host a Christian-based program designed to increase fathers’ participation in their children’s lives. The program, All Pro Dad, combines a biblical foundation with the draw of popular professional athletes to promote the belief that “the father is the head of the household” and that men should rely on God to help them be better parents and keep their marriages intact. It also encourages Bible reading.

Oh yeah, Jeb is such a shining example of fatherhood.  His daughter is a drug addict, his brother was a cokehead alcoholic and is currently a liar, and his wife Columba didn’t declare $19,000 worth of goods on her way back from Paris.  That certainly convinces me how valuable that there bible readin’ is.  You know what, no one in my family is religious, none of us are drug addicts, we all went to college and none of us has been arrested.  Let’s bring cultural Judaism into all the schools - we’ll celebrate the holidays and our ancestors, and live as good human beings.  Wow, what a concept, we didn’t need to learn how to be decent human beings from a book.

Murder-Suicide At Rainbow & Cheyenne

Murder/Suicide at Las Vegas intersection - yup, those het couples really know how to live it up.  “A man shot and killed his wife in the middle of a busy Las Vegas intersection Wednesday evening, then turned the gun on himself, police and witnesses said.  Las Vegas homicide detectives were investigating the murder-suicide, which shut down most of the intersection of Rainbow Boulevard and Cheyenne Avenue about 6:20 p.m.  Detectives said that it appeared the victim was the estranged wife of the killer and that the couple had a history of domestic violence. “

Yeah, I can see why people would worry about them homosexuals marrying.  They might want to create a happy and loving family.  That would suck, huh?

No, I’m not bitter.  Okay, maybe just a little.
