Muslims Fail to Revere the Moonbat Messiah
Apparently the Obamunists running our media aren't the only ones who don't realize that the Moonbat Messiah isn't President yet. Look who's featured along with Egypt's Hosni Mubarak and Israel's Ehud Olmert at a Muslim tantrum in Indonesia, where The One spent much of his extended childhood:
Here I was thinking that all the world would love America once bad old W had been replaced by the unicorn-riding Magic Negro.

British School Bans the Word "School"
If politically correct British educrats keep banning words at the current rate, students and teachers will soon be reduced to communicating with hand signs and grunts. The latest to be struck from the Newspeak dictionary is "school."
Linda Kingdon, head teacher at Watercliffe Meadow Primary, explains why her school is not a school but a "place for learning":
One reason was many of the parents of the children here had very negative connotations of school. Instead, we want this to a be a place for family learning, where anyone can come. We were able to start from scratch and create a new type of learning experience. There are no whistles or bells or locked doors. We wanted to deinstitutionalize the place and bring the school closer to real life.
As an educrat, Dingdong has never actually experienced real life, but she may have learned about it at a seminar.
Her "place of learning" isn't alone. Barnsley, South Yorkshire is replacing its secondary schools with "advanced learning centers."
If the practice of suppressing words in favor of stilted descriptive phrases continues, they may soon have to replace "educrat" with "useless politically correct education-corroding ignoramus."

Obama's Terrorist Mentor Is Blogging at HuffPo
Bill Ayers, the unrepentant and unpunished communist terrorist whose Weather Underground plotted the extermination of 25 million Americans, may have seen his protégé elected president of the country he longs to destroy, but that's no reason to rest on his laurels. In addition to poisoning the minds of future generations with his prominent position in the education establishment, he is now posting commentary on the influential (among liberals) Huffington Post.
If Sacco and Vanzetti had lived in this depraved age, they would have their own reality show on NBC. Julius and Ethel Rosenberg would be put in charge of the DHS.

Professional Jackass Reveals Hamas Rocket Attacks to Be Harmless
Excellent news: the rockets Hamas terrorists rain down on Israeli citizens are actually "harmless." Incredible as this may seem, we know it to be true because we have the word of an intellectually superior being, Ivy League emeritus law professor and United Nations Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Richard Falk.
The rocket attacks are only the result of Hamas's "supposed" unwillingness to stop fighting, and their increased incidence is only "alleged," so how could they hurt anyone?
Falk has also revealed that wacky conspiracy theorists may be right about 9/11, and that Israelis are like Nazis. The elite has spoken: please calibrate your opinions as necessary.

Al Franken to Be Handed Coleman's Senate Seat
Benjamin Franklin said the Founding Fathers had given us a republic, "if you can keep it." Unfortunately, it appears that we can't:
Democrat Al Franken will be declared the winner of the tight U.S. Senate contest in Minnesota, emerging from a ballot recount with a slim margin over Republican Norm Coleman, state officials said on Sunday.
It would be impossible to find someone less qualified for the Senate than the tax-dodging, corrupt, and conspicuously unfunny professional clown Al Franken. Even the left-wing Minnesota Star Tribune endorsed his Republican opponent Norm Coleman. Unsurprisingly, Coleman won the election.
But the election process in Minnesota is overseen by Secretary of State Mark Ritchie, who has links to George Soros and the extremely unsavory ultra-left outfits Moveon.org and ACORN. Since the election was close, they just kept counting the votes and discovering new votes until they got the results they wanted. As FDR's Uncle Joe said:
Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything.
Too bad Ritchie et al. couldn't conjure up imaginary listeners like they can phony voters. Franken would still be on Air America, causing relatively little damage.
Here's the face of the decline and fall of the rule of law in America:
The absurdity of corrupt Democrat apparatchiks seizing a Senate seat from its rightful owner and handing it to a third-rate comedian doesn't do much to mitigate the horror.

Turncoat Reveals Moonbat Terrorist Plans
On reason to try to hate the moonbattery but not the moonbat is that even the most depraved progressives can choose to redeem themselves — like Austin activist Brandon Darby, who let the FBI in on plans by his fellow moonbats to firebomb police cars at the Republican convention.
Darby was the government's chief informant in the case against David McKay and Bradley Crowder. The two are scheduled to go on trial in U.S. District Court on Jan. 26 on accusations they built Molotov cocktails during the convention. They are being held without bail.
Prosecutors say the two men built the firebombs because they were angry that police had seized a trailer filled with riot shields they had built and hauled to Minnesota.
In a conversation recorded by the FBI, McKay told Darby he planned to use the explosives on law-enforcement cars parked in a lot near the convention site, officials said.
"What if there's a cop sleeping in the car?" Darby asked McKay, according to an affidavit by Christopher Langert, a special agent in the FBI's Minneapolis office. "He'll wake up," McKay allegedly replied.
Yuk yuk.
Darby's assistance in saving lives is not appreciated by his fellow progressive crusaders:
"Everyone that knew Brandon has gone through a whole range of emotions. Clearly, he's betrayed the trust of the community, and all the communities he's worked with," said Lisa Fithian, a social-justice activist who worked with Darby in Austin.
A site has been devoted to denouncing Darby as a snitch.
Despite a reputation for hating society, Darby began to grow up during the post-Katrina spectacles he helped stage in New Orleans, where he figured out that his fellow moonbats were more interested in advancing radical agendas than in helping people.
It's never too late.

Another Moonbat Goes Off the Rails
Evidence continues to accrue that moonbattery and mental health do not go hand in hand. From a note written by Jim Blanning, before he shut down Aspen by delivering gasoline bombs to local banks and then blew out whatever served him as brains:
DO NOT F*CK WITH US OR THERE WILL BE MASS DEATH LIKE WE HAVE ALL BEEN PART OF OVER IN THAT F*CKING QUICKSAND TRAP THAT ROVE'S AND CHANEY'S MONKEY BUSH PUT US INTO WHERE SO MANY OF OUR SOUL MATES AND BROTHERS DIED VERY HORRIBLE DEATHS. …
THIS IS AS MUCH A SUICIDE MISSION AS A BANK ROBBERY, SO, IF IT GETS F*CKED UP, OUR SOULS HAVE ALREADY BEEN DESTROYED AND WE WILL ALL DIE LIKE THE RAG-HEAD MARTYRS THAT WE WERE KILLING OVER THERE. THEY TRAINED US GOOD FOR THIS SORT OF THING. …
WE LEARNED SOME NASTY CHEMISTRY FROM THE MARTYRS, ETC.
Looks like he also learned some nasty moonbattery from MSNBC, etc.
What comes first, psychosis or moonbattery? This question would make a fascinating subject for a dissertation in psychopathology.

TSA Puts Moonbattery Before Security
Too bad it isn't easier to emigrate to Mexico. If I became a foreigner, then snuck back into the country, I would be a supercitizen, with more rights than an ordinary American. The TSA wouldn't even expect me to provide proper ID to board an airplane. Via Lone Star Times:
This puts a new light on the Muslim prayer rugs and Islamic documents that have been turning up on the smuggling routes along the Mexican border.
When the next 9/11 happens, there will at least be a silver lining if the criminally irresponsible bureaucrats mismanaging our government are hauled out from behind their desks to be torn limb from limb by the citizens they have been so willing to sacrifice to political correctness.

Planning Ahead
Blago appointee Roland Burris may be out there crowing "We are the Senator," but it looks like he's prepared for his fellow Dems to throw him under the bus, despite his sacred skin color:
