Yup, $2Bn a week borrowed from Communist China to bring a 7th century tribal society into the 21st century after spending $trillions again borrowed from Communist China so some guy could get his family revenge and what are the "kooks" worried about???...so called "High Taxes" that got us into a budget surplus and then were irresponsibly reduced to "pay" for the above craziness...

Saxby Chambliss says gay slur originated with his office

7:12 pm September 22, 2010, by Jim Galloway

My AJC colleague Bob Keefe in Washington has this:

U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss’ office has determined it was indeed the source of a highly publicized homosexual-bashing slur on an Internet site.

But in a statement, Chambliss’ office said it has not discovered exactly who was behind the slur, and has turned the matter over to the Senate Sergeant At Arms.

“The (Sergeant at Arms) has worked side by side with our personnel to determine whether the comment in question emanated from our office. That appears to be the case,” an unsigned statement from Chambliss’ press office read.

“There has not been a determination as to who posted the comment,” the statement read. “That part of the review is ongoing, and is now in the hands of the Senate Sergeant at Arms.”

Spokeswomen for Chambliss did not return a reporters phone calls or emails seeking more details.

Tuesday, a poster identifying himself as “Jimmy” wrote “All (gays) must die” on Joe.My.God., a blog dedicated to gay and lesbian issues – just as Republican Chambliss and other senators were debating a Democratic proposal to repeal the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. The proposal failed.

The posting was traced back to an Internet Protcol address matching Chambliss’ office, but it’s unclear whether it was one of his offices in Georgia or in Washington.

Have another refreshing glass ...

Your cartoon doesn't mention that the tea baggers want to dismantle SS and the Dept of Education, privatize medicare and the VA and reduce taxes for the rich even more than they already are. And that's just the beginning of their vision.

The truth is they are very right wing fringe.....a very disturbing group of people who have tried to control the discourse many times in the past.
