This is most disturbing. Who exactly could support this? Obviously the Left would not support such behavior, Libertarians wouldn't want it.
ON the Right? Well, the right wing is constantly going on and on about how incompetent the public education system is, how lazy teachers are, what a bunch of losers they are. They just had all these tea parties. YET, are they going to claim that these same people who are incapable of teaching Johnny to read are capable of stripping their daughters down and inspecting them for Advil? What exactly is so time urgent that law enforcement couldn't be called in. Honestly, if you think some kid has a weapon or weed in his ass or in her cooch, a call to the local PD while the alleged culprit sits there in full view of the staff is unreasonable? They can't wait 10 minutes? A call home to Mom and Dad?
What happens when the new 24 year old assistant principle decides that Suzy looks like she's hiding something, so he takes her into his office and makes her disrobe? Really? Is this Saudi Arabia? Can he do a cavity search too?
I see no defensible position to school adminstrators ever forcing children to take their clothes off. No reason that is so urgent, parents and law enforcement can't be called.
I can't wait for the next 8th grade teacher caught with her student to claim that she is just conducting a strip search for Tylenol. Fuckin A.

If Texas secedes can they take some other states with them?
here's a classic:
To sum up briefly:
You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states.
We get stem cell research and the best beaches.
We get Bill Gates. You get Ken Lay.
We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand.
We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.
We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs.You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue. You get to make the red statespay their fair share.
Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.
Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro choice and anti war and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home.
We wish you success in Iraq and hope that the WMDs turn up but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.With the Blue States in hand we will have firm control of 80% of the country's fresh water, more than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the nation's fresh fruit, 95% of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90% of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the US low sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and SevenSister schools plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.
With the Red States you will have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans and their projected health care costs, 92% of all US mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100% of all televangelists, RushLimbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.
We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.
38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory, 53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.
We're taking the good pot too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico.

How is hating America so much being a Patriot?
Can you imagine the outrage if Michael Moore or anyone for that matter suggested seceeding from the Union? Seriously Chuck (and the Governor of Texas), you lost the election, a democratic election. obama didn't invade America and impose tyranny...in fact he has returned America to a place where the President believes laws and the Constitution apply to him, not like his predecessor. The Constitution is safe, safer than it has been in 8 years since Bush determined he was not bound by it's "quaint" provisions.
What a bunch of whiny hypocrites. Their silence while Bush arrested people and held them without access to the judicial system (IN THIS COUNTRY), tortured people overseas and held secret meetings that would have made any despot proud. Now all the sudden they've got religion again and remembered what "Conservativism" used to stand for, but as usual they make up shit and get all hysterical in their overreaction to actions that they accepted up until Jan 21st.
Shameless, igornant and hypocritical. Pathetic.

GOP grandstanding
I absolutely love how the GOP is turning a report on Domestic Terrorism into political hay. After years of anyone left of Sean Hannity being called a terrorist and someone who "Hates" America all while they did everything they could to fire up the right wing masses with their anti gay, anti-immigrant, shit, anti-everything not "American Enough" and xenophobia. Creating the very groups this report talks about. While doing NOTHING to support America's veterans, not providing adequate health care for Injured vets and extending tours 2 and 3 times while guys lost their minds..NOW these hypocritical assholes are going to wrap themselves up in "the Military" b/c some of them might come home and join the right wing groups. HOLY SHIT what an absolute bunch of hypocrites. Since when is calling out possibilities of threats to America UnAmerican? Since when are neo-nazi's and their ilk people we defend? Even on the "Right".
Especially ironic is a quote from an AZ state Rep who said the memo was like the worst propaganda put forth by Germany in the 1930s. Besides the blatant stupidity of such a hysterical statement, but I bet the irony is lost on our good man in his quest to further fire up the very groups mentioned. To criticize a document that says Neo Nazi's are a possible threat by comparing that very document to that created by the Nazi's is not only ironic and absurd, but proves how much ignorance pervades today's GOP.
They have called it a "threat to the Constitution" and "free speech"... Are you shitting me? The same group that wouldn't allow a dissenting opinion anywhere for 8 years, who shouted down anyone who dared say that wiretapping without a warrant is Unconstitutional are now wrapping themselves in the very document they despise to this day and pissed on for 8 years under Bush? really? Hypocrites, which they have often been, but now they are making up shit to fire up the masses. (Like the Fox Sponsored "Tea Parties")
Shameful, misleading and making political points with a serious memo on domestic threats. I didn't think it were possible to have any less respect for the GOP, today i have less.

My absence
it's been too long since I last posted. Too much goings on with work and too much spending my blogging capital on Facebook. I hope to get back to it and after watching Fox News for about 45 min this AM at the gym, I must put fingers to keyboard.
