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.

Aw, How Romantic - Domestic Violence On Valentine’s Day

“BRENTWOOD, Tennessee - Tennessee Titans cornerback Samari Rolle was arrested Tuesday for allegedly assaulting his wife on Valentine’s Day, police said. ”

Welcome to my first edition of, “Why Straight People Hets Shouldn’t Be Allowed to Marry and/or Procreate”.  Here, I’ll regale you with snapshots of harmony and bliss in the straight world.  I’m sure they’re all living as God had intended, in heterosexual happiness.  Gay people couldn’t possibly approach this kind of love and happiness in their homes.

An aside, I tried to use the more politically correct term “straight people”, but my template said, “Whoa there, girlie, too many letters iffen you want to add that procreating part.” My template talks.  Jealous?
