Singing Group Beaten After Singing National Anthem

Members of an A Capella singing group from Yale, visiting San Francisco for the New Years Eve celebrations, were savagely beaten by youths after singing “The Star Spangled Banner.” The attack happened outside the homes of two of prominent members of the police department. Although several of the attackers were detained and later released, there have been no arrests so far. Interestingly, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who represents the San Francisco area, has done nothing about this incident. How long will it take for the Democrat leadership in Washington to admit that we’ve lost the war in San Francisco? The time has come to pull our people out of this quagmire.

Our Grandparents Would Be Rolling Over In Their Graves, If They Were Dead

So let me get this straight: it’s been five years, three months, and twenty-nine days since the World Trade Center was destroyed by terrorists, and in that time, all we’ve managed to accomplish in terms of rebuilding is to stick a solitary steel girder into the ground. And we’re STILL fighting over the design for the replacement. Do you think that if the Germans or the Japanese had managed to knock down the Empire State Building at the start of WWII, within five years our grandparents wouldn’t have had it rebuilt, brick for brick, just the way it was before the attack? They wouldn’t have wasted time arguing over “footprints”, or “open spaces” or a “memorial park”. And any of them that did would have been ignored, because our grandparents would have understood that the people making those arguments were pussies.So how did we become such a bunch of pussies?

Rebuild the goddamned thing, just like it was.

RoPMA!

That stands for ‘Religion of Peace, My Ass!”, in case you were wondering. So what exactly is inspiring today’s outburst of intolerance, you ask? Try these:

This one, too.

Democrats Planning To Do What They Do Best

Raise taxes, that is. In order to pay for their theoretical tax cut for middle income families, the Democrats are looking at various schemes, including raising taxes on the wealthy (which they say are people making over $500,000 a year, but knowing them, it’ll probably drop to those making $60,000 a year), and cutting wasteful spending. How much do you want to bet that among the things they consider to be wasteful spending will be military spending (in a time of war, no less)? How much do you want to bet that they’ll push through these tax increases and spending cuts first, and then come up with an excuse for not actually passing the tax cuts? How much do you want to bet that they’ll then end up using the extra money they’ve taken in to fund some really stupid new federal entitlements, like welfare and free health care for Palestinians, or something. Not that I think the Republicans are much better on this front. If they had that kind of extra money, they’d probably use it to build a bridge between Alaska and Siberia or something.

Israel Plans To Give Nukes To Iran The Old Fashioned Way

By using them. Secret plans have been drawn up by the Israeli Government to nuke Iran’s uranium enrichment sites using tactical nuclear weapons, the Sunday Times of London is going to report. I would ask the obvious follow up question “If they’re secret, then how does th Times know”, except we’ve already been down that road before with other newspapers called The Times, haven’t we?
Personally, I hope they do it. I hope they film the whole thing and play it on Pay-Per-View. I’ll pay to see it. Just so long as the US doesn’t do something stupid afterwards, like drop it’s support for Israel.

Is The Army Trying To Enlist The Dead?

The US Army routinely sends out letters to officers no longer serving to encourage them to re-enlist. However, in the last batch of letters sent, were 75 sent to officers who had been killed in combat. The Army has apologized for this, stating that it made a clerical error, but is that really the truth? Could it be a cover story to prevent discovery of a secret plan to employ the un-dead as an ultimate weapon? For all our sakes, I hope not. The Army should keep in mind that the undead are notoriously unreliable, being just as likely to vote Democrat as to eat the enemy.

Unreasonably Normal

Why is it that anytime anything weather related happens, it’s always held up as proof of global warming? There are always fluctuations in temperature and rainfall, there are always temperature records being set somewhere, and meteorologists will tell you the time to worry is when temperature records STOP being broken. Yet, anytime it’s a little warmer than usual, it’s a sign of global warming. Anytime it’s a little colder than usual, it’s a sign of global warming. I half expect to hear sometime “Temperatures were completely normal for today. Experts are pointing to this as further proof of global warming.”
In order for a theory to be scientifically legitimate, it must be disprovable. In other words, there must be a certain set of conditions or results which prove the theory, and a certain set that disprove the theory. That’s why scientists don’t take stories of little green spacemonkeys very seriously. You can prove that the aliens are here if you have the evidence, but you can’t prove they’re NOT here, because absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Which is why no one has yet been able to shut up the tinfoil hat crowd, and also why I have to endure the goddamn “UFO Files” every Monday night on the History Channel.
So if every possible set of circumstances that comes up is claimed as evidence of global warming, how do you disprove it? And if you can’t disprove it, what’s the difference between global warming advocates and those guys who stand out in front of Area 51 wearing Mr. Spock ears and waving signs that say “Beam Me Up, E.T.”?

The Occupation Has Begun…

Nancy Pelosi (D-Homorabia) is now, at least in her own mind, the most powerful woman in the world. There are billboards up all over her district congratulating her. And in this time of war and strife, she has sworn to immediately get down to the business that’s most important to the national security of our country: an increase in the minimum wage. This should please one of her key constituencies: the unions. Why would the unions want the minimum wage to go up? It’s not like there are any union employees who actually make the minimum wage. Could it be that most union contracts have the member’s wages pegged to the minimum wage, so that if it goes up, so do their own wages? Could it be that raising the minimum wage makes it less cost effective for companies to hire unskilled workers, thus making skilled, union workers that much more valuable? Nah, couldn’t be that. The unions would never try something as sneaky and underhanded as that, would they?

Quote For The Day

"Will not perhaps the temporal power of Islam return and with it the menace of an armed Mohammedan world, which will shake off the domination of Europeans -- still nominally Christian -- and reappear as the prime enemy of our civilization? The future always comes as a surprise, but political wisdom consists in attempting at least some partial judgment of what that surprise may be. And for my part I cannot but believe that a main unexpected thing of the future is the return of Islam".
-Hilaire Belloc, 1938
Yeah, you've probably seen it before, but I like it.

Quote For The Day

The private ownership of firearms is completely incompatible with socialism, because firearms ownership requires responsibility, and socialism must foster irresponsibility in order to survive.

Remember When “Eliminated” Meant "Out Of Contention”?

Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams was shot and killed by a drive by shooting Monday in downtown Denver, just one day after his team was eliminated from the playoff race. I guess someone took the whole “eliminated” thing a little too seriously.

501st Legion Deployed To Quell Unrest

The famed 501st Stormtrooper Legion (also known as Vader’s Fist) has been deployed to prevent potential unrest in the Pasadena region of California during the controversial ‘Tournament of Roses” parade. The tournament which is in its 118th year, has suffered in recent years as an obvious high profile target for the forces of the Rebellion. Emperor Palpatine has promised that this year’s festivities will go undisturbed, and has deployed the 501st, the Empire’s premier military unit, to deliver on this promise.

What Is It With Scientists And Sheep?

Are they lonely, or just having a hard time getting to sleep? Either way, scientists studying homosexuality in sheep in order to find a cure are being told to back off by gay rights groups who are offended by the very idea of a cure. Why? Because if there is a simple, cheap and effective way of screening for, and curing, homosexuality while still in the womb, don’t you think most parents would take advantage of it? If that were to happen, pretty soon, there’d be no more gays.
At the risk of sounding controversial, something we here at Castro Burn In Hell are loath to, (snicker), I’m going to go out on a limb and posit that homosexuality is a disorder, not a preference. Reproductive organs were designed for reproduction. The fact that we can receive pleasure from them, and can further the bonds of love with them, is either a gift from God, or a fluke of evolution, or both, depending on your point of view. It’s undeniable, however, that their biological and structural purpose is for reproduction, which requires the union of one member of each of the two sexes. (Jesus, I can’t believe I have to use my blog to explain the birds and the bees to you people). The impetus for this union to take place is through sexual attraction, where members of the opposite sexes are attracted to each other (or not, depending on how much beer is involved). Men are attracted to women, women to men. If a man (or a woman) is attracted to a member of their own sex, then reproduction cannot take place, and the process breaks down. It is not biologically or evolutionally advantageous for a creature to be sexually attracted to another creature of it’s own gender, much like it isn’t advantageous for it to be sexually attracted to a space heater or a toaster (unless you find yourself trapped on a Cylon Basestar, in which case your survival possibilities may be enhanced by becoming involved in a three-way with two of the blonde toasters).
In any event, I’m not necessarily trying to insult anyone’s sensibilities here. I’m just trying to explain this from a scientific angle. From a biological perspective, homosexuality is a reproductive disorder, and it is the medical imperative to cure or treat medical disorders. Parents have the right, even the responsibility, to do what they can to ensure that their offspring are viable and healthy, regardless of whether or not that gets in the way of the sexual-political agendas of any special interest group.

Haiku 4 U

Rope strains against flesh.
Saddam gets his just reward.
You want fries with that?

The body falls as
the lever springs the trap door
See your house from here?

The famous last words
of the man who would be God:
“Choke Choke Gurgle” die

Never it be said
that Saddam was not well hung.
Khomeini says Hi

The Kos Kids will whine.
The Dummies will crap their pants.
Who will lead them now?

Hunt For Red October,
bought for five bucks at Wal-Mart.
Gonna watch it now.

Ding Dong, The Witch Is Dead

The Arab Media is reporting that Sadam Hussein has been exectued.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, Saddam.

Hussein Family Reunion Scheduled For This Weekend

A glorious family reunion between Saddam Hussein and his sons Uday and Qusay has tentatively been scheduled in Hell for this weekend, sources report. Hussein, who will be traveling via the gallows, is expected to depart for the reunion by Sunday. No news yet on whether his departure will be televised, but the word is that, assuming that his neck isn’t broken instantly, the Vegas over/under on how long it will take him to die is 3 minutes, 14 seconds. I’m taking the under, but I’m hoping for the over.

“More Dead In Iraq Than on 9/11, And What Has It Gotten Us?”

Between 45,000 and 50,000 dead scumbag terrorists, that’s what! That’s the word from this report by a Marine with boots on the ground in Iraq. I found this last paragraph most interesting:
“Morale among our guys is very high. They not only believe that they are winning, but that they are winning decisively. They are stunned and dismayed by what they see in the American press, whom they almost universally view as against them. The embedded reporters are despised and distrusted. They are inflicting casualties at a rate of 20-1 and then see shit like "Are we losing in Iraq" on TV and the print media.”
Damn reporters. General Sherman always said that reporters are worse than spies and that if he had them all shot, there’d be dispatches from Hell in the morning. Too bad we can’t test his theory.

I’m Gonna Give You Thirty Days To Burn In Hell

Saddam’s death sentence has been upheld by Iraq’s highest appeals court. He must be hung within thirty days. Now if Castro can just time his death to coincide with Saddam’s, this could be the biggest party ever!
Interestingly, one of Saddam’s lawyers has filed an appeal with the U.S. District Court in DC to have his execution overturned on humanitarian grounds. Forgive me if I’m confused, but exactly what jurisdiction does a US court have in Iraq? Does that mean if I get a traffic ticket that I don’t want to pay, I can appeal it to a court in Kazakhstan?
And the lawyer’s appeal may be thrown out on the grounds that he isn’t a member of the DC bar. As opposed to the fact that he’s a freakin’ moron? This sounds to me like one of two things: either some weird PR move by the lawyer, or an attempt to drum up support for Saddam among the truly brain-dead sector of the moonbat class (as opposed to the larger, mostly-brain dead sector).

Okay, I'm trying to read between the lines

According to Associated Press, the Bush administration has leaned too hard on countries to report what they are doing with the money that we give them. Apparently, people who spend the U.S.'s money can't be bothered with little things like keeping track of free money. I'm sure the UN is on their side. Perhaps giving money to poor countries and asking them to show progress is really just a racist plot. I think that the new congress should investigate this as a hate crime. After all, if a few warlords can't skim money without some busybody like Bush hanging around, what good is giving aid?

RIP James Brown
