Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

Denizens, welcome to this week’s edition of the Perfect Football Weekend&#153.

Arlington Heights gets its season ended by Birdville tonight, fifth-ranked Smurf Turf Douchebag State proves once again it can’t beat TCU without their so-called “trickeration” (they’ll win, but they’ll have to use trick plays to do so), sixth-ranked Oklahoma has the week off, so we’ll plug in 18th-ranked Wisconsin at UMinne-haha, 19th-ranked Nebraska is at 12th-ranked Penn State, and Dallas has Beefalo at home on Sunday.

And I’m not pontificating on the games this weekend, because I’ve got a Red Curtain o’ Blood&#153 covering my eyes RightAboutNow&#153, and a certain Filipina bitch – not to mention a lot of other Lame-Assed Media&#153 types – are at the top of my shit list.

Some background.&#160 A damned good man lost his job today, and he lost it for the CARDINAL, UNFORGIVABLE SIN!!!!11!!!ONE!!1!ELEVENTYMILLION!!1!…of following Pennsylvania state law.

I refer, of course, to Joe Paterno.

For the first time in almost a half-century, someone other than Joe Paterno is calling the shots at Penn State.

The winningest coach in major college football history was fired Wednesday night

A good man is now persona non grata&#160 with a great many shitheaded asshats around this country simply because he followed Pennsylvania state law and delivered a second-hand report from an underling about a criminal incident that he did not personally witness.&#160 Paterno went to his athletic director, as he should have done, and reported what he had been told.&#160 Yet, he is being treated as a pariah by those of the Fifth Column&#153 who think they’re entitled to be the moral arbiters of us all.

And whether Joe Paterno was initially told the lurid specifics of that 2002 rape or not, the reports that say that Jerry Sandusky still had access to the locker room, still had an office, and still was entitled to roam the Penn State campus defy all definitions of responsible adult behavior.

What does it take for someone, knowing Sandusky’s questioned past, to go to somebody in charge — the athletic director, the school president, the police — and ask, “What’s that pervert doing near this football team?”

Instead, having failed to expel one-time assistant coach and defensive coordinator Sandusky, the people at Penn State tried to pull a rug over the situation.

Because they could.

What, because you&#160 say so, Gil LeBretard?&#160 And pray tell, what gives you the right to pass judgment over Joe Paterno?&#160 Or any of us, for that matter?

And then there’s that Filipina skank, Michelle “Malicious” Malkin.

And now, it’s college football. The failures to act, the cover up, the rationalizations all echo each other — and also mirror the institutionalized failures, cover ups, and rationalizations of Catholic Church officials who enabled pedophiles to prey on innocent young victims entrusted to their care and oversight across the country.

The systemic enabling of child sexual predators is an unspeakable evil. So is willful ignorance about the sordid details of the case.

The latest developments? It looks like Joe Paterno will get off and get out easy.

Yeah, Malicious?&#160 Tell me – when do you get your&#160 comeuppance for what you did to Rick Perry, hm?&#160 When do you get shunned and frog-marched (as you apparently want to do with JoePa) for whining & sniveling about Tina Brown’s “stupid photo tricks” against your honeygirl, Michelle Bachmann, then four days later did the exact same fucking thing to Governor Perry?

The point, skank, in case you can’t keep up:&#160 Who the hell appointed you, or anyone like you, to be the definitive moral arbiter of all of us?&#160 What gives you, or this pusstard excuse-for-a-police-commissioner Fwankie Noonan, any business to stand up there on a pedestal and say what any&#160 of us should&#160 do?&#160 WHO MADE YOU THE BOSSES OF US, YOU BASTARDS?!

And now Joe Paterno, who had a 61-year career setting the definitive example of how a football program, college, pro or otherwise, should be run, is treated as less than pond scum and unceremoniously dumped from a job he loved, all because a bunch of fuckheaded, asstastic piles of shit decided to impose their own moral values on him and say he should&#160 have done something a lot of them probably wouldn’t have had the balls to do themselves in his stead?

Ever noticed how the same ones who snivel, piss & moan about Christians supposedly imposing their values on others suddenly decide it’s okay for them&#160 to do so when it involves their own&#160 half-assed excuses-for-values being imposed.

Fuck ’em.&#160 Just fuck all&#160 of ’em.&#160

UPDATE:&#160 Oh, and not to put too&#160 fine a point thereupon (and yes, I know this doesn’t mean shit to anyone outside this blog – give me credit for still realizing the world doesn’t revolve around me)…from this point forward into perpetuity, a Perfect Football Weekend&#153 will be declared on the spot, regardless of how the rest of my teams do, anytime Penn State gets its ass handed to them.

Meaning, for example, that if Nebraska wins this weekend, it’s an automatic PFW, even if I go 0-4 with the other squads.

Fuck you, Penn State “trustees”.&#160 I wouldn’t trust you now with my shit, much less my kid.

Denizens, this week’s episode of the Perfect Football Weekend&#153 opens with that Mickey Mouse network, ESPN (and I mean that literally; they’re owned by Disney), infringing upon the free-speech rights of one Hank Williams, Jr.

BOSTON (Reuters) – ESPN pulled Hank Williams Jr.’s theme song from its “Monday Night Football” broadcast in a rebuke to the country music star for comments earlier in the day comparing President Barack Obama to Adolf Hitler.

Williams, a Republican, had appeared on a Fox News’ morning television show “FOX and Friends” on Monday, and was asked which of his party’s presidential candidates he liked.

Obama and Boehner played side by side that day against Vice President Joe Biden and Republican Ohio Governor John Kasich at the height of the congressional budget debate.

Asked what he did not like about the friendly bipartisan golf match, Williams replied, “Come on! It’d be like Hitler playing golf with (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu.”

For Hank’s part, he wound up apologizing for the comparison – which, if you ask me, he absolutely should not have done – and the four-lettered bastards wound up making the removal permanent.

Now, I seem to remember a helluva lotta libtards comparing Bambi’s predecessor to this Hitler character beginning sometime around November 2000.&#160 And it continues to this very day.&#160 But you don’t hear any angst – mock or otherwise – over that, now do you?

(crickets)

Nah, didn’t think so.

Memo to the four-lettered:&#160 I don’t have to watch your network.&#160 I don’t have to do business with your sponsors.&#160 And I don’t have to apologize for happening to agree with Hank Williams, Jr’s first impression on the matter.

For the record, yeah – I think Bambi is&#160 another Hitler.&#160 Come do something about it ESPN, you chickenshits.

Awright, on to the football.&#160 It’s Yet Another Thursday Game&#153 for Ged Kates and my Arlington Heights Yellow Jackets, and it’s a Guaranteed Win Night&#153 as well, for they are playing the North Side Steers.&#160 North Side generally wins one game a year.

Against Carter-Riverside.

Heights in a major squash.

Saturday, Gary Patterson’s unranked&#160 Texas Christian Horned Frogs – yes, I meant to point that out, why do you ask? – travel to Mrs. Venomous’ hometown of San Diego to take on the Aztecs of SD State.

Coach Brady Hoke is no longer there, having migrated to Michigan, and he’s been replaced by former New Mexico coach Rocky Long.&#160 But they still have a helluva quarterback (Ryan Lindley) and a helluva running back (Ronnie Hillman), and they damned near beat the Frogs at Amon Carter last year.&#160 However, Vegas has the Frogs as a four-point favorite.

I think that’s bogus.&#160 I think TCU loses this game, and it won’t be that close.&#160 You think SMUT bombed ’em out of the stadium? SD’s offense is better.

Also Saturday, it’s the annual…ahem…

VENOMOUS:&#160 RED RIVER SHOOTOUT, YOU PC PANSY-ASSED DOUCHEBAGS!!!1!!ONE!1!!ELEVENMILLIONTY!!1!

KORRIOTH:&#160 Feel better now, m’liege?

VENOMOUS:&#160 Why…yes.&#160 Yes, I do.&#160

…in which Bob Stoops’ 3rd-ranked Oklahoma Sooners (Great Honkin’ Cthulu&#153, how bad do you gotta beat someone to keep a ranking around here?) take on Widdle Mackie Brown’s (hack, spit) 11th-ranked TU Shortdicks Longhorns Shortdicks.&#160 The major news this week for whom, was the announcement of the departure of one Garrett Gilbert.

Imagine.&#160 From playing in the BCS National Championship Game two years ago, to being ejected out the third-string chute last week.&#160 How the mighty have fallen.&#160

Early reports have Gilbert possibly headed to…SMUT.&#160 (Please, Lord, please&#160 make that happen.&#160 Little Junie Jones’d start him over Padron, and we’d kill ‘im…(cackle))

Things don’t get much easier for Bo Pelini’s 14th-ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers, as The&#160 Ohio State University comes a-callin’ up in Lincoln.

Believe it or not, Vegas is actually making the Huskers an 11&#189-point favorite in this game.&#160 But NU doesn’t have a secondary either, so don’t exactly etch that in stone, if you know what I mean.

And this week, Tony “El Choko” Romo is guaranteed not to lose the game for his team.

OZY McCOOL:&#160 The usual reason, m’lord?

VENOMOUS:&#160 The usual reason, Ozy.&#160 Cowgirlz don’t play this week.

MERLIN:&#160 Plug Kansas back in for a game, sir?

VENOMOUS:&#160 Kansas is a 31&#189-point road dog at Oklahoma State, Wizard.&#160 Whaddya you&#160 t’ink?

MERLIN:&#160 Shutting up now, m’liege…

VENOMOUS:&#160 Thank you.

We’re back Monday or so with the recap.&#160 In the meantime, Bucky’s reward for destroying Nebraska is an off week, so my question for HDD is…dude, you ever gonna get a day off again?

Well, Denizens, as you know by now, the Imperial Socialist Congress&#153 caved to Bambi & the Demoscum over the debt “deal” (Such A Deal&#153), and the Imperial Senate did likewise the next day.

Not surprisingly, Wall St. showed its disapproval over it – 512 points worth, although no one on the Street will admit the “deal” (Such A Deal&#153) had anything to do with it, and indeed the Dow gained 61 points back today.

But shortly after that, Standard & Poor’s thumbed its&#160 nose at the Ayatollah & the rest of Al-Obambi, lowering the United States’ credit rating for the first time ever.

Just a guess here, but anyone who thinks the Dow will gain&#160 Monday should come see me – I have this bridge I want to sell you.

It’s begun, people.&#160 Stockpile, lock & load.

Booker T. Huffman is a professional wrestler, currently employed by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE – Vince McMahon’s baby).&#160 One of his favorite catchphrases goes something like, “He didn’t just say that.&#160 Tell me he didn’t just say that.”

After reading this, you can imagine how I pretty much thought the same way.

Actress Jane Fonda said in a statement posted on her website today that the QVC television channel cancelled an appearance they had scheduled with her today to promote her new book “Prime Time,” blaming the cancellation on what she called “well funded and organized political extremist groups.”

In the same statement Fonda said, “I have never done anything to hurt my country or the men and women who have fought and continue to fight for us.”

She didn’t just say that.&#160 Tell me she didn’t just say that.

In 1972, during the Vietnam War, Fonda took a two-week trip to North Vietnam, where she was photographed sitting on an antiaircraft gun that North Vietnamese forces otherwise used for shooting at American planes.

When she returned from her sojourn in Vietnam, as Time Magazine reported at the time, she accused U.S. forces of deliberately trying to bomb and destroy dikes, whose destruction could have caused the death of many civilians.

The question should not be how QVC could have cancelled Hanoi Jane’s appearance thereupon.

The question should&#160 be how QVC was asininely stupid enough to invite her in the first place.

(Hat tip Michelle Malkin, although I’m using Sister Toldjah and Patterico for the links.)

Y’wanna know just what kind of pussified douchebags the Demoscum are?&#160 ‘Specially the unions?

Here you go. This was taken at a Special Olympics event in Wisconsin.&#160 (Yeah…that&#160 Wisconsin.)

They’re such hate-filled pieces of shit that they won’t even let the special kids have their day.&#160 (And if you ask me, the special kids have higher IQs.)

I’d entertain a motion to hire out the Patriot Guard Riders to ride herd on these events, just to keep the union chickenshits from going all Westboro on events like this.

And if one of them just happened to “accidentally” cause a union pussy to flop face-first into the cement…wellllll, I’d be inclined to overlook that.

Say, with a beer in hand for the PGR guy.

Robert Reichhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-uh! thinks he’s a pretty tough little shit doesn’t he?&#160 Seeing as how he thinks he speaks for the anarchists ‘n all…

CENK UYGUR: Secretary Reich, this isn’t just about let’s get the money from the rich because that’s where it is and they’ve accumulated all the wealth up at the top. It also makes sense for the rich if we had more equal distribution of income because of the effect it would have on the middle class. Tell us about that, why do you think that’s the case? . . . Now if you go buying less cars, less homes, less everything, how are corporations and rich people supposed to make money? I mean, it hurts everybody, doesn’t it?

ROBERT REICH: Not only does it hurt everybody, but it also breeds a kind of anger.

Oh, wook – widdle Bobbi’s stamping his feet and banging his widdle sippy-cup.&#160 Inn’t he just so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute?&#160

I mean, so many middle-class people, lower middle-class people, working-class people, are frustrated. They are anxious, they worry about paying their bills.

Actually, we worry about all that while at the same time worrying about Demoscum imposing their Draconian, confiscatory tax schemes on us.

They see people at the very top getting away with, well, the equivalent of murder:

No, what we see are people getting compensated according to agreed-upon contract, and while we wish we could be that successful, those of us who think with our heads rather than our dicks understand that being successful isn’t a crime.

Or at least, it wasn’t, until…

look at what happened on Wall Street. There’s not a single Wall Streeter that’s actually been indicted or brought to justice after that huge implosion on Wall Street. And people get cynical and they get angry.

No, they just had your homie the Ayatollah and his fellow Demoscum in the then-Imperial Socialist Congress decide that they were going to try and tzx&#160 their earnings at something like 90%.&#160 That’s&#160 why we got “cynical & angry”.

And then they see, uh, Republicans are very good at channeling that anger toward what? Government, immigrants, public employees. Well, an angry population and an angry populace could just as easily turn their anger toward the very rich.

No, actually, this time we’ll be turning our anger towards you and your fellow Demoscummic statists & anarchists.

And, given that it’d be your sticks & rocks vs. our .45s, .357 Magnums, .380s, 12-gauges and 30-aught-06s…you might wanna rethink that one.

Again, it is in the interest of the people at the top to actually call for a more equitable distribution of the gains of economic growth and a better tax system: a tax system that is fair.

Bring it, Reichhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-uh!, you pussy.&#160 I fucking dare&#160 you.

Professor Jacobson warned us – and now Michelle has confirmed – that the Capitol police have deliberately refused to do their duty and throw the remaining protestors pussies douchebags pussies & douchebags out of the Capitol.

Denizens, when historians discuss the Second Civil War, they will be doing you a disservice if they don’t tell you it started in Madison, Wisconsin.&#160 The only question is how quickly the shooting will mushroom across the country.

It gets bumpy from here.

Denizens, remember the bake sales your school would have when you were growing up?&#160 Yer mom would bake a cake, or a pie, or cupcakes, or blueberry muffins, or banana-nut cake, and take it down for you, your schoolmates and their folks to enjoy.

OZY MCCOOL:&#160 Great.&#160 Now I’m all hungry.

VENOMOUS:&#160 Yeah, I know.&#160 I’ll see if Mrs. Venomous can whip up some muffins for ye.

T-BONE MCMANX:&#160 She’d do that for us?

VENOMOUS:&#160 Sure.&#160 Not like she can do it for me, what with the diabetes & the low-carb diet ‘n all.

MERLIN:&#160 Schweet.

Anyway, it was a fun thing to do, and usually it benefitted some worthy cause or other – band, choir, a Cub Scout troop, whatever.

Naturally, the Demoscum can’t stand to see Americans enjoying themselves, so here comes the First Wookiee…

CHEWBACCA:&#160 ROWARRRRRRR!!!!!

…uh, the First Klingon…

[Korrioth uses one massive hand to goozle His Rudeness by the throat.]

KORRIOTH:&#160 Suggest you try again, m’liege.

…(ulp)…uh…the First Nossican?

KORRIOTH, K’HADIBAK’H:&#160 Better, sir.

CHEWBACCA:&#160 …urf, urf, urf…

Ain’t no pleasing some people.

Anyway, Her Wide-Assedness told the Imperial Socalist Congress&#153 to jump, they got on collective knee, kissed her fat ass and asked “How high?”, and this bullshit is the result.

A child nutrition bill on its way to President Barack Obama — and championed by the first lady — gives the government power to limit school bake sales and other fundraisers that health advocates say sometimes replace wholesome meals in the lunchroom.

“This could be a real train wreck for school districts,” Lucy Gettman of the National School Boards Association said Friday, a day after the House cleared the bill. “The federal government should not be in the business of regulating this kind of activity at the local level.”

If Bambi signs this piece-of-shit, it could be a real train wreck for the Demoscum in 2012.&#160 Not bad enough that they’ve moved to throw our economy in the shitter; not bad enough that they want to tell us we have&#160 to buy health insurance – now they wanna tell us we can’t even have bake sales???

The legislation, part of first lady Michelle Obama’s campaign to stem childhood obesity, provides more meals at school for needy kids, including dinner

…by which time the little rug-rats ought to be home anyway – but don’t let those inconvenient little facts get in the First Nossican’s way.

and directs the Agriculture Department to write guidelines to make those meals more healthful. The bill would apply to all foods sold in schools during regular class hours, including in the cafeteria line, in vending machines and at fundraisers.

It wouldn’t apply to after-hours events or concession stands at sports events.

Oh, but you just know&#160 they’d either try to find a way around that, or else repeal that little provision within three years.

I would honest-to-Cthulu like to see some dickless little bureaucratic pissweasel with a bad combover just try&#160 to enforce any&#160 of this BS.

The fuckhead had best bring a slew of bodyguards with him.&#160 IYKWIMAITYD.

The RCOB&#153 is in full effect.

It appears that Jack Conway, the Kentucky Democratic Senate candidate took a few below the belt swings at Dr Rand Paul. These attacks took place during a televised debate between the two. Dr. Paul was offended enough that he refused the traditional end-of-debate handshake.

This Missouri Democrat says the Mr. Conway in Kentucky was borderline inappropriate when he attacked Dr Rand Paul.

The question is, was Mr, Conway out of line, and was Dr. Rand right in refusing to engage in what has become a tradition in political debates.

For that matter, what credibility does any democrat have in discussing anyone’s willingness to tolerate personal attacks?

So Christine O’Donnell, prior to finding Christ, “dabbled in witchcraft” (her words) and hung around people who practiced it”?&#160 All this according to libtard doucherifle pussy Widdle Willie Maher (go get your own link; I’m not going to give that little faggot the honor).

Seriously.&#160 Am I supposed to care?

Memo to John Hindenraker and Patterico:&#160 Assclowns, if you’re going to attempt to bury Christine O’Donnell even before the general campaign starts, go join up with the Demoscum.&#160 We conservatives sure as Hell&#153 don’t want or need you&#160 limp-wristed fairies around.

ThatIsAll&#153.

ITEM:&#160 Demoscummic goober-natorial candy-ass-date Wee Willie White thinks term limits for the office of Texas governor is a hell of an idea.

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Bill White said Tuesday that Texas governors should be limited to two four-year terms, a change he said would prevent incumbents from amassing too much power.

White is trying to unseat Republican Gov. Rick Perry, who’s seeking an unprecedented third full four-year term in the Nov. 2 election.

White, the former Houston mayor, said there should be a voter referendum on term limits and that he favors a proposed constitutional amendment that would have to be approved by voters.

One may make an educated guess that this is all because Wee Willie isn’t going to be able to unseat Rick Perry in November.

Because, Denizens, this is the same, exact Wee Willie White that also wanted to relax term limits for Houston’s mayor – if not remove them outright.

Mayor Bill White on Wednesday raised the specter of changing the term limits on Houston elected officials, urging City Council members to consider appointing a special commission to examine whether the restriction to three, two-year terms imposed by voters in 1991 has been too stringent.

Term limits are fine for Republicans.&#160 For Demoscum – not so much.

Doesn’t this kinda remind you of the fracas up in Massa-chews-shits whereby the Demoscum-controlled state legislature passed a bill to remove the power of a governor to appoint an interim rep or senator for some poor schmoe who had just bit the bucket while in office, in order to keep then-governor Mitt Romney from appointing a Republican to replace a departed Democrat?&#160 Then voted to reinstate said power for Duval Patrick so that he could appoint a Demoscum to fill in for Teddy “The Swimmer” Kennedy?

The Will Of The People&#153:&#160 Void where Demoscum have anything resembling a say in how things are run.

Wee Willie White, you are a pathetic ass.

San Fran Nan Piglousi wants to investigate those of us who oppose Cordoba House – i.e. the Ground Zero mosque:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Wednesday morning called for “transparency” in the funding behind a planned Islamic community center and mosque being built blocks from ground zero. But she also said there should be similar openness about the money behind conservative attacks aimed at thwarting the project.

[…]

Earlier Wednesday, Pelosi told San Francisco’s KCBS radio that “there is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some.”

“I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded,” she said. “How is this being ginned up?”

The power of the government brought to bear on ordinary, private citizens who believe this travesty to be a slap-in-the-face against Americans and don’t want to see it built at a spot two blocks from Ground Zero.

Libtards, just an advisory:&#160 When our rights under the First Amendment are taken away from us…we’ll just have to go to the next one.

Those of you who aren’t&#160 the Uninitiated&#153 probably already know of this story, where Big Government&#153 descends upon a 7-year-old and her first lemonade stand and demanded tribute of $120 for her to keep operating said stand in what has to be the most offensive shakedown since…well, since Bambi extorted twenty extra-extra-extra-large a couple of months ago from BP.

Turns out that kids’ lemonade stands — those constants of summertime — are supposed to get a permit in Oregon, particularly at big events that happen to be patrolled regularly by county health inspectors.

“I understand the reason behind what they’re doing and it’s a neighborhood event, and they’re trying to generate revenue,” said Jon Kawaguchi, environmental health supervisor for the Multnomah County Health Department. “But we still need to put the public’s health first.”

That is just so.&#160 Much.&#160 Bullshit.

Yeah, the law&#160 in Sorry-gun may technically&#160 state that all food vendors have to be licensed, but this is a kid’s lemonade stand, for Cthulu’s sake.&#160 Hell – it wasn’t even real&#160 lemonade – just some bottled water & packets of Kool-Aid&#169.&#160 At $.50 a 4-ounce cup, for crying out loud.

After 20 minutes, a “lady with a clipboard” came over and asked for their license. When Fife explained they didn’t have one, the woman told them they would need to leave or possibly face a $500 fine.

At which point, I think I’d’ve gotten nose-to-beak with that Cupid Stunt&#153 and informed her that she was leaving – either voluntarily or by force.

Surprised, Fife started to pack up. The people staffing the booths next to them encouraged the two to stay, telling them the inspectors had no right to kick them out of the neighborhood gathering. They also suggested that they give away the lemonade and accept donations instead and one of them made an announcement to the crowd to support the lemonade stand.

That’s when business really picked up — and two inspectors came back, Fife said. Julie started crying, while her mother packed up and others confronted the inspectors. “It was a very big scene,” Fife said.

And I’d have done the same with these two bastards.&#160 With The Insurance Policy&#153 in my hand.

To others, this may just be an isolated incident involving an overzealous flock of gummint buzzards.&#160 To me, it’s a portend of things to come – at least, economically speaking.

The US economy is about to collapse.&#160 All the signs are there – continued high unemployment (the “jobless recovery”), stagnant economic growth (2.4 percent?&#160 Seriously?!) and a major tax increase looming over the horizon (January 1, 2011, when the Bush tax cuts are set to expire).

If steps are not taken between now and 12/31/10 to boost the private sector – and note that I didn’t&#160 say “boost the economy”; Bambi can crow all he wants about the 250,000 jobs he’s created, but they’re all in the public sector, not on Main St. – if a tax rate hike hits in the middle of such an economy, another recession will result (the “double-dip” recession we’ve all been warned about), and the United States will have a very difficult time surviving it.

At that juncture (and this is my point), the underground economy that’s already out there will gain strength – and Al-Obambi will do its dead-level best to crack down on it.

Don’t believe me?&#160 When was the last time Donks openly talked about not raising taxes when nothing was standing in their way over it?

Bottom line, Denizens:&#160 Lock & load.&#160 They’re coming…and as Jefferson said, resistance to tyrants is obedience to God.

(Hat tip RedState.)

This should surprise absolutely no one.

When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the Obama administration and its allies now defend the requirement as an exercise of the government’s “power to lay and collect taxes.”

And that power, they say, is even more sweeping than the federal power to regulate interstate commerce.

Administration officials say the tax argument is a linchpin of their legal case in defense of the health care overhaul and its individual mandate, now being challenged in court by more than 20 states and several private organizations.

Under the legislation signed by President Obama in March, most Americans will have to maintain “minimum essential coverage” starting in 2014. Many people will be eligible for federal subsidies to help them pay premiums.

And I will still refuse to pay it.

(Hat tip:&#160 Dan Riehl.)

So help me Cthulu, I don’t know whether to laugh my ass off or issue a CSITMF&#153.

KORRIOTH:&#160 That depends.&#160 Do you want a horde of Secret Service agents at your door?

VENOMOUS:&#160 Guess it’s time to roll on the floor, huh?

MERLIN:&#160 We’d say so, m’liege.

Here, Denizens, come have a look at this:

Ex-fuckin’-scuse me?&#160 “Whose ass to kick”?!?!?!?!?!?!

OZY MCCOOL:&#160 Does seem a little out of place, doesn’t it, Admiral?

VENOMOUS:&#160 “Whose ass&#160 to kick”?????

KORRIOTH:&#160 I perceive you’re having some difficulty getting past that part of the interview.

VENOMOUS:&#160 “Whose ass&#160 to kick”?!?!!!1!!ONE!1!ELEVENTEENTY!?!

K’HADIBAK’H:&#160 He’s having trouble with it.

Let’s be clear about one thing, sports fans.&#160 Bambi is, without any doubt or question whatsoever, the biggest pussy&#160 ever to occupy the White House – and yes, I’m including Jimmuh “Peanuthead” Carter in that group.&#160 This wussbag wouldn’t last five minutes against my dear, sainted grandmother (God rest her soul).&#160 This pansy-ass would not only hit&#160 like a girl, he’d slap-fight&#160 like a girl, too.

And he’s going to (snx)…to…(snnnnick)…to…(mmmmmf)…“kick some ass”

BWAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…!!! (snort)

(Sorry, Denizens.&#160 I’m gonna be out of pocket for a few hours.&#160 Anyone got some oxygen?)

BWAH-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…!!!!!!11!1!ELEVENDOZENTY!1!1!!!!!
