TN Dad With 30 Kids Wants Help From State

Desmond Hatchett, from Tennessee, has almost as many children as his age. The 33-year-old Knoxville father of 30 kids (by 11 women) is a minimum-wage worker whose meager salary is garnished to help support his brood, but now he is begging the state to help him. Half of Hatchett's paycheck is divvied up between the moms, but because he makes so little, some of them only get about $1.49- per month. I assume at some point in time he was a deadbeat dad, if the courts are garnishing his wages, but he hasn't broken any laws by having so many children so there is nothing officials can do to prevent him from having more. Well, they can't stop him from breeding, but they can say no to his appeal for taxpayer help.

His oldest is 14 with the youngest a toddler, so he must have started at 19 and has had those 30 kids in about 14 or so years.

According to an interview in 2009 when he only had 21 and said he was "done", he explained that he "had four kids in the same year. Twice.“   What a ho!

Hatchett is the poster child for the need for sterilization education. Someone needs to tell him to tie it up.

UPDATE: Actress Sues- Belvedere Vodka's Outrageous 'Rape Ad' Goes Viral

Thing about the digital and social networking age is that something can go viral in an instant, and if it happens to be negative it can cause a huge backlash.  The Polish company Belvedere Vodka learned the hard way that social media and an asinine marketing campaign don't mix.

Apparently, someone thought it would be funny to shoot the above ad of a frightened young woman being grabbed from behind by a leering young man, with the obvious sexual connotations in the text. It was posted to their 10,263 Twitter followers and 916,970 Facebook fans, many of whom were obviously outraged. Within an hour it was removed from both sites, and eventually there was an apology of sorts:


But not enough of one, for some:

“FAIL. Never touching your product ever again."

“We apologize to any of our fans who were offended by our recent tweet. We continue to be an advocate of safe and responsible drinking.”

According to Forbes, the company did make a full apology on its website, and has also donated generously to RAINN, an organization dedicated to anti-sexual violence. Belvedere is also looking into how this happened in the first place, though no-one has been fired yet.

Rape is not funny, and neither is the ad.

UPDATE 3/31:

It seems that Moet Hennessy, the parent company of Belvedere Vodka, actually stole the photo used in their tasteless ad, and the actress, Alicyn Packard, is suing.

The lawsuit, filed in a California state court in Los Angeles, seeks compensatory and punitive damages.[snip]

According to the complaint, the photo of Packard was a stolen from a video made by her company Strickly Viral Productions.

In that video, she and the man - her friend and Strickly Viral owner Chris Strickland - are asked by her parents to recreate a pose from a photo taken when they were young.

According to the Hollywood Reporter,

"While Defendants have apologized to nearly everyone else, and admitted the offensiveness of the advertisement," says the lawsuit, "they have yet to apologize to the plaintiff, whose image she says they used without permission to sell vodka, and who has now been unwillingly made the face of the Belvedere advertising campaign that jokes about rape, and has been put front and center in the worldwide controversy created by Defendants."

Not cool to use someone's photo  without their permission, and in California (as in other states) it's illegal.

The photo on their Facebook page.

Co-hosts of Dutch TV Show Claim They Ate Each Other's Flesh

This is so disgustingly wrong on so many levels, whether true or just a cheap publicity stunt, or both.

Valerio Zeno and Dennis Storm, co-hosts on the Dutch TV show “Proefkonijnen” ("Test Rabbits" in English) turned Hannibal Lecter-ish when they decided to see what human flesh tasted like, so they did. Each other's. A few centimeters off of Storm's butt, and a few off of Zeno's tummy. Or so they claim.

“We went to the butcher, the surgeon and the studio, then we looked at each other and just ate it,” Storm said. “The special thing is, it was his flesh, of course.” There were no fava beans and chianti. Not even spices, just human flesh cooked medium rare. “The chef cooked it in a frying pan with sunflower oil. We didn’t add any salt or pepper because we wanted to know what it tasted like.”

“The punchline of the show is to get really simple answers on stupid questions, such as, ‘Can you shave with ketchup’ or ‘can you drive blind?’” Storm said. “And we wanted to find out how human flesh tasted.”

This is just as grotesque as Keith Richards (of Rolling Stones fame) claiming he snorted his dad's ashes, along with a little cocaine.

The episode airs Wednesday, for those who live in the Netherlands.

Ron Paul Groupies As Clueless As Ron Paul

I just spent precious time (that I will sadly never regain) responding to a Ron Paul devotee who also happens to be a mega asshole.  Unrighteousfury, who is obviously  as enamored of Ron Paul as Chris *tingles* Matthews was of Barack Obama (back in the day before his recent disillusionment), stumbled upon my blog post about clueless Ron Paul's naive belief that we can reach out and befriend the Iranians. Like Paul, unrighteousfury is under the delusional assumption that we can actually engage Iranians through "offering friendship and open trade", as if a little kumbaya and trading some rice and kebabs for some snicker bars will make things all better. 

He accuses me in an uber-long, yawn-inducing post on his blog of being a "dolt", a "dumb ass woman" and for not doing my research. Ironically, the man obviously has not done his research because he has absolutely no clue about Islam, let alone the inner workings of ultra religious conservatives like Ahmadinejad and the Iranian Mullahs.  He, like Paul, believes that Iran's nuclear ambitions are overblown. Why? because there's no actual proof.  Unrighteousfury, lets call him UF,  apparently has no idea about the concept of 'taqiya', nor does he have any clue why Ahmadinejad and the Mullahs' belief in the "12th Imam" might be reason enough to conclude their nuclear ambitions are far from innocent.



He can be forgiven for the woeful ignorance he shares with all the other Ron Paul groupies out there, who for some reason are drawn to a wacky former doctor-turned-politician, but UF is a piece of work. This is what he says about women in the piece dedicated to me:

I swear we need to repeal women’s voting rights. They keep writing this crap and I keep debunking it. Women should just stop blogging about politics all together. Stick with what you know. Here are some helpful examples of things you can occupy your time with that are far more productive than your silly ass opinion about politics.

But checking out the rest of his blog, it's quite obvious the man is a misogynist. In an incredibly insensitive post about women and rape, he says all women claim to have been raped and says this:

Look, to all you dumb women out there: We know that rape is a terrible thing and a tragedy. By lying about it over and over again, people literally lose interest in it even being a big deal.

Well, UF, I have never been raped nor do I have any friends who were, so your claims are bogus, as is the whole piece you wrote about it. But if you peruse most of UF's posts, you will find that they are replete with references to his 'manliness', which begs the question- why doth the man protest so much?

Ron Paul groupies are certainly a bizarre bunch, unable to respond to criticism of their guru in a civil manner. But we encountered that back in 2008, during his last bid for Presidency. I'll be glad when this is all over.

Jimmy Carter Supports Palestinian Statehood Bid From U.N.

I have always maintained that former President Jimmy Carter was a flaming anti-Semite, and his latest antics continue to confirm that opinion. Not only was he useless as President (the worst in U.S. history, followed closely by Barack Obama) he's even more so now as an ex-leader of the free world. He just can't seem to keep his mouth shut on issues he obviously has no clue about, and  no right meddling in. Like the Palestinian pursuit of statehood recognition through the United Nations.

In Atlanta on Tuesday, Jimmy said he fully supports Palestine's bid for statehood, in spite of the fact that this could jeopardize Israel's security, considering the recent events in Egypt  and the strained relations with Turkey.

"As an alternative to a deadlock and a stalemate now, we reluctantly support the Palestinian move for recognition."

Carter claims that had Obama "put forward any sort of comprehensive peace proposal" he would not approve of the current efforts for U.N. recognition.  But no-one has managed to do that, including Carter himself, because the majority of Palestinians simply don't want peace, they just want Israel to go away.  And until Western leaders accept that fact, they will continue to fail at bringing peace to that region.  He also foolishly doesn't seem to think that troubles with Turkey and Syria pose any problems to Israel:

"The Arab spring has brought hope for democracy and freedom to many of the people in the region ... and I hope that eventually it will potentially bring about a change in the prospects of a peace agreement to be negotiated between Israel and its neighbors," he said. "But it would require Israel to withdraw from the occupied territories and that's something that so far the Israeli government has been unable to do."

Dream on! 

There will never be peace until Hamas changes its charter that clearly states:  "Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it."

There will never be peace until the Palestinians put down their arms, stop attacking Israel and start teaching their children to love life  more than martyrdom.

As Golda Meir so aptly put it:

"We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us”.

Young Girl Revels In Japan's Earthquake and Tsunami Devastation

I have never understood those who revel in the suffering of others. There is something intrinsically evil in that.

This is one of the most hateful, vile videotapes I have seen in a long time. Granted, it's coming from a young girl who probably is more interested in her 15 minutes of fame on YouTube than anything else, but this is not the way to get it. And it's certainly not very Christian of her.

Open Mouth, Insert Foot- AFLAC Voice-Over Actor (Comedian Gilbert Gottfried) Fired Over Crude Tweets About Japan

I'm not sure why people don't think before they act or speak, especially those who happen to represent the people (as in government officials) or corporations and companies (as in actors and others). Whether out of ignorance or arrogance, some go about doing supremely stupid things that could eventually get them fired, and those actions often do lead to a sacking or a forced resignation.

Actors representing certain products are associated with those products by virtue of the fact that they are seen by millions of viewers pushing that mop, or burger or insurance company, so it behooves them to make sure they behave themselves. No corporation wants any bad p.r., and whether we like it or not, actors are a dime a dozen. Remember the Geico (not the voice of the Gecko) voice-over actor Lance Baxter who was fired over an insulting phone call to the Tea Party's Freedomworks? Gone. He no longer represents Geico. No-one in this business is indispensable, not even Charlie Sheen, one of the highest paid stars on the small screen.

Now it turns out that the asinine comedian Gilbert Gottfried, who mocked the victims of the tsunami in Japan via some extremely tasteless, offensive comments on Twitter, was the voice of the duck in all those Aflac commercials. None too happy with those Tweets, he too was just fired.

“Gilbert’s recent comments about the crisis in Japan were lacking in humor and certainly do not represent the thoughts and feelings of anyone at Aflac,” Aflac Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Michael Zuna said in a statement Monday, reports TMZ. “There is no place for anything but compassion and concern during these difficult times.”

Apparently he still hasn't apologized for some truly vulgar, so-called jokes. Buzzfeed listed 10 of the worst ones on their website, none of which were funny in any way.

But he's not the only one who joked about Japan, there have been others , and even Joan Rivers defended Gottfried. Then we have people like Glenn Beck who piped in claiming it was a message from God, and a writer for "Family Guy" who insinuated it was payback for Pearl Harbor. Natural disasters are not the time to start moralizing about why it happened, because it could easily happen here, once again.

We need to be supportive not judgmental or critical. We are better than that.

Rapper 50 Cent and Comedian Gilbert Gottfried Mock The Japanese Tsunami/Earthquake Victims On Twitter

There are a plethora of ignorant people in this world who rear their ugly heads during tragic times. One can understand (though not condone) hateful and stupid behaviour from the likes of a young person, but it is inexcusable from an adult. In light of the horrifying triple blow that the Japanese people have been dealt, there are idiots out there who have absolutely no clue, let alone a heart. Take 50 Cent and Gilbert Gottfried, a rapper and a comedian, who with an incredible lack of sensitivity Tweeted the following callous remarks, for the whole world to witness.

"Look this is very serious people I had to evacuate all my hoe’s from LA, Hawaii and Japan. I had to do it. Lol." 50 Cent Tweeted.

Obviously aware of his idiocy, he then Tweeted a while later:

“Nah this is nuts but what can anyone do about it. Let’s pray for anyone who has lost someone.”

In response to criticism the rapper then said:

“Some of my tweets are ignorant I do it for shock value. Hate it or love it. I’m cool either way 50cent.”

Not cool, when the conservative death toll estimate is $10,000.00 people, with thousands missing, and thousands more homeless without food, water, shelter or electricity.

Gilbert Gottfried, a comedian Tweeted the supremely tasteless and unfunny:

"Japan is really advanced. They don't go to the beach. The beach comes to them."

Following that with equally crass:

"I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'They'll by another one floating by any minute now."

Mocking or making fun of others is a very unkind thing to do, but when it deals with such a monumental tragedy, and one that has yet to end, there is karma for that.

On John Cusack and his "Satanic Death Cult" for Fox News and GOP leaders Tweet

There are some actors who make me totally ashamed to be affiliated with the entertainment industry, and now you can add John Cusack to that ever growing list of liberal idiots who don't think before they speak. Or, in this case, tweeted, or twitted, or whatever you call it.

On Sunday night Cusack twittered to his well over 210,000 followers:

“I AM FOR A SATANIC DEATH CULT CENTER AT FOX NEWS HQ AND OUTSIDE THE OFFICES ORDICK ARMEYAND NEWT GINGRICH-and all the GOP WELFARE FREAKS,”

Very smart and classy, Cusack! With all the wackos in the world, some of whom are probably your faithful followers, you come out with such an obscene and violent call to violence? As if we don't have enough of that already, with all the teen violence, gang violence and terrorist threats. And according to some L.A. psychiatrists it's not so totally far fetched.

“His provocative tweets could easily incite a rabid fan to commit violent acts against Fox News Headquarters and others he names," said Dr. Carole Lieberman, a Beverly Hills-based psychiatrist and author of "Coping With Terrorism: Dreams Interrupted."

Fans could not only be influenced because of their devotion to Cusack, the man, but also because of their love for one of the characters he plays,” she told Fox411.

Cooper Lawrence, the author of “Cult of Celebrity” told Fox 411: “The fear isn't that a celebrity will influence someone to do something violent or out of character due to the sheer devotion to the celebrity, the fear is that someone who is already vulnerable, mentally disturbed, already considering something dangerous, may be encouraged to do so if it is advocated by their favorite star,”

Lawrence explained that while celebrities don't make healthy people do things they wouldn't normally do, they could impact someone who is on the fence or mentally unstable.

“John Cusack has to know that his words carry weight because he is an actor beloved by many generations of folks who may not get his humor and might think he is calling for something more sinister. The responsibility is on him to not abuse his fame to influence something negative on the off chance that even one person takes his words to heart,” Lawrence said.

And they complain about our few fringe wack jobs who have made hateful comments, but at least they're not in the position to influence others, like Cusack.

There are those who believe that by saying such vicious things he might start losing fan base. Well, not that I was necessarily a fan, but if I was he lost this one.

We all have the right to free speech and to condemn those whom we find lacking, but we do NOT have the right to incite violence against them. I know many are fed up with Fox News, I have seen the zillion petitions and posts on my personal Facebook page calling for boycotts of Fox News, but I respectfully propose that if they find Fox News so offensive, then turn the dang channel off or switch the TV off. No-one is forcing them to watch Fox News, anymore than anyone is forcing non-liberals to watch Keith Olbermann on MSNBC.

But I suppose as long as celebrities like Cusack have an audience, and a large one at that, they will continue to shove their proverbial feet in their mouths, and mouth off when they should just stick to acting.

Anti-Semite Helen Thomas Retires After Telling Israelis To "Get The Hell Out Of Palestine" and "Go Home"

High profile, geriatric Washington journalist, Helen Thomas, retired after her incredibly insensitive, tacky comments about Israel. What led to her so-called 'retirement' was her response to a reporter's question about Israel. Asked if she had any comments on Israel, she aggressively responded with "Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine". After the reporter asked if she had any better comment, Thomas proceeded to cackle like the Wicked Witch of the West and told him to remember that "these people are occupied and it's their land." Asked where they should they go she told the reporter that they should all go home. Poland and Germany and the U.S. or wherever.




After pressure and condemnation from many including the White House Press Corps, the Lebanese American Christian announced her retirement, and issued a statement of apology on her website

“I deeply regret my comments I made last week regarding the Israelis and the Palestinians. They do not reflect my heart-felt belief that peace will come to the Middle East only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance. May that day come soon.”

It's obvious she does not deeply regret her comments, and that this is merely a means of saving face. Sadly, many people feel the same way. All you have to do is look at some of the vile comments in response to the above video, on youtube. One called for the need for another Hitler. The Palestinians have done a brilliant job of snowballing a great majority of the people in the world, and those people are too stupid to see the through the lies.

One Of Geico's Voice Over Actors Fired Over Calling Tea Party Members Retarded

First of all, I want to say that not all of us actors are stupid, although admittedly plenty are. And very few are indispensable. Actors are a dime a dozen and when talent rarely factors into the casting process, it's incumbent upon us to mind our Ps & Qs. That's why it's always best to keep your politics to yourself, because you never know which side of the fence those in the position to hire (or fire) you are sitting.

One of the voices of Geico (not the Gecko), Lance Baxter (aka D.C. Douglas) learned the hard way that it's not best to mix politics and work, especially when you are the voice of a well-known, nationwide insurance company. When you represent a product, even if it's just your voice, you're the face (or voice, in this case) of that company, and anything you do reflects on said company. You certainly don't want to make them look bad, and you definitely do not go around acting badly without suffering the consequences. Not necessarily because the company disagrees with your actions, but there are enough people in this country who might and they'll have your ass. Baxter obviously is unaware of that fact or didn't care when he left a nasty message on Freedomworks' voicemail. FreedomWorks, one of the voices of the Tea Party Movement, has had its fair share of hate from bomb threats to racist diatribe including the message from Baxter. In his voicemail, Baxter matter-of-factly tells the FreedomWorks people he's doing a paper and wanted to know "the percentage of people that are mentally retarded who are working for FreedomWorks and who are following it." He then goes on to ask they will "spin it when one of your members does actually kill somebody, wondering if you've got a PR spinning routine planned for that or are you just gonna take it when it happens."

Now this is where Baxter really falls into the 'stupid actor' category: the man actually leaves his name and phone number on the message. If you want to be politically active, or voice your grievances in our business (if you're that pissed) you don't leave a name and number on a voice mail for the whole world to have access to. Anyone could pick up the phone, and leave an equally nasty message for him, though I wouldn't recommend it.

Anyway, as a result of his impetuous actions (or the outrage by Tea Partiers who more than likely flooded the corporate offices with complaints) Geico fired Baxter, and are already re-casting.

At least he admitted what he did was asinine:

"I called as a private citizen to make a complaint," explains Mr. Douglas. "Racism and homophobia are my Achilles heal, but unfortunately my message included inappropriate words and I am sorry for that. However, telling their members to harass my employer to get me fired is an egregiously disproportionate response to my actions."

Mr. Douglas believes his connection to GEICO, a company already on FreedomWorks' boycott list for pulling their ads from Glenn Beck's show, is the main reason he was targeted so forcefully. "Even though I left the message during the week of March 23, the harassing calls didn't hit until April 14, the morning after I posted about my GEICO campaign on my Facebook page."

Interesting comment. Maybe this whole thing was payback for Geico pulling their ads for Glenn Beck, but that's the beauty of this country, it goes both ways. Sad he doesn't see that. And to have lost a job based on some racial and homophobic comments no-one has been able to prove. Very stupid. I think from now on he might just keep his gripes out of a public forum, as all smart actors should

Obama's Disastrous Nuclear Policy- Or, how we'll be up a creek without a paddle

Let's face it, it's not that Barack Obama didn't promise during his campaign speeches to "slow the development of future combat systems" or set his "goal of a world without nuclear weapons." He said it many times, including in the video below, so we shouldn't be surprised he's trying to cap his Obamacare triumph with the disarmament of the U.S.



But even though he made those promises back then, I hoped he would have some semblance of intelligence, at least enough to know that a world without nuclear weapons is well-nigh an impossibility, especially with madmen like Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong Il floating around the planet. Frankly, I don't believe that we can even trust China or Russia, for that matter, and the rate things are going in Pakistan and Afghanistan with Karzai threatening to join the Taliban, Pakistan's nuclear weapons are a disaster waiting to happen. Sure, we could stupidly rid ourselves of our arsenal, as Obama seems to want to do so willingly, but that doesn't mean that others will do the same. Other than outright blasting Iran to smithereens, the Iranian government is not going to comply. They want their nukes and no-one is going to stop them, not UN sanctions (even if they got every one on board including Russia and China) or Obama's begging, or the threat of Israel attacking. In fact, it's more than obvious they are bucking for some kind of action so that they feel justified in retaliating. Ahmadinejad, after all, believes that the return of the 12th Imam is predicated on an Armageddon, and that's more than likely the reason they are so hell-bent on nuclear capabilities.

So, as the rest of the world increases their nuclear arsenal, we have our kumbaya President enacting a nuclear policy that decreases our potential for use.

The Obama administration is unveiling a new nuclear weapons policy that seeks to narrow the circumstances under which the United States would use such weapons while preserving long-standing assurances of nuclear protection for allies, U.S. officials said.

The U.S. officials said the administration's new policy would stop short of declaring that the United States would never be the first to launch a nuclear attack, as many arms control advocates had recommended. But it would describe the weapons' purpose as "primarily" or "fundamentally" to deter or respond to a nuclear attack.

The officials said the document would say it is a U.S. goal to move toward a policy in which the "sole purpose" of nuclear weapons is to deter or respond to nuclear attack. That wording would all but rule out the use of such weapons to respond to an attack by conventional, biological or chemical weapons. Previous U.S. policy was more ambiguous.

In an interview with The New York Times on Monday, Obama said his administration was explicitly committing not to use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear states that are in compliance with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, even if they attacked the United States with biological or chemical weapons. Those threats, he told the newspaper, could be deterred with "a series of graded options" — a combination of old and newly designed conventional weapons.

It's all well and good that Obama wants to sit down with Russia to discuss nuclear disarmament, but he has no assurances Russia will ever comply. We're going to be sitting ducks with no means of reprisal. God knows what else Obama is going to drag us into in the next few years, but we have all those who voted for him, who didn't vote at all, or who voted 3rd Party to thank for the mess we are headed for.

'Boycott Israel' Group Vandalizes Israeli Products At Trader Joe's

The following video is a perfect example of what happens when you gather a group of people who have way too much time on their hands, no brains, and little respect for the property of others.

On June 30, 2009 ("Don't Buy Into Apartheid Day"- yep, it exists), in the San Francisco Bay Area (and elsewhere), pro-Palestinian/anti-Israeli activists, members of Global BDS Movement (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions for Palestine) trekked on over to various Trader Joe's and proceeded to vandalize all Israeli-made products. In this particular location, the feeble Trader Joe's employees basically did nothing to deter the idiots from plastering stickers on the food, other than threaten to call the police. At the beginning, they also asked them to stop filming, although they continued to videotape their antics for 6 minutes or so.

Of course, they bandied about the whole Israel is an apartheid state, which is ludicrous, and to which I devoted a whole post to.

I wish I had been there!

WARNING: The video has an annoyance-factor of 10+.




HatTip: WeaselZippers

Squelching Free Speech: Pissy Perez Hilton VS Miss California (Carrie Prejean)

Since when do we, as Americans, not have the right to voice an opinion? As much as gays have the right to state they should be able to marry, those who oppose the idea have as much right to disagree. This whole issue was thrown into the spotlight by one vicious, nasty little guy called Perez Hilton, who had the gall to ask beauty contestant Miss California, Carrie Prejean, what her beliefs were regarding gay marriage. First of all, what kind of baiting question is that? Second of all, she's entitled to her opinion, whether you agree or not, because this is a free country! Just because someone might not agree with gay marriage, and there are plenty of gay people who don't, does NOT mean one is anti-gay. She probably lost the title because of her answer.

Perez also took it upon himself to try and destroy a Florida photographer who emailed chastising him for the Miss California fiasco, by posting the email on his blog- address, phone number etc. Granted, the photographer's choice of words was very distasteful, but Perez had no right to publish that information.

His website got overloaded and crashed. And his email inbox filled up with hate mail. Someone wanted to burn his home. Someone else wrote about killing him and his family.

So, while people get bent out of shape because there are those who believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman, where is the outcry regarding stories regarding the torture and murder of gays in the Middle East? There was a recent story about gay men in Iraq having their anuses glued shut, then being force-fed a liquid that causes diarrhea, which leads to eventual death. Shouldn't they be blogging about that?

Perez Hilton, and the like, are truly pathetic for their spitefulness and lack of priorities!

And Then There Were 14- Mother Of Octuplets Has 6 More At Home!

No wonder the California mother of octuplets refuses to reveal her identity, and any other information surrounding the multiple births. All that hoopla about 8 miracle babies has suddenly turned into a moral and ethical question of personal responsibility, or lack thereof. Why?

1. It turns out the thirty-something year-old mother is possibly single, living with her parents in a 3 bedroom house. There has been no mention of a father.

2. The grandmother, Angela Victoria Suleman, filed for bankruptcy last year. The grandfather, who is said to be an Iraqi national,(though that's not confirmed) is returning to Iraq as a contractor to help support the horde.

3. And the kicker? She also happens to have 6 other kids! 7, 6, 5, 3 and 2 year-old twins. (The woman has been busy!)

4. She underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF), and it's highly likely the twins were a result of fertility treatments, as well.

The whole ultra-bizarre situation begs for answers, which won't be forthcoming any time soon, as the family is asking for privacy.

But:

1. Where is the father?

2. Why is a young mother of 6 toddlers getting in vitro fertilization?

3. How could the fertility doctor, in all good conscience, even allow this young woman to undergo treatment in the first place; and why did they implant so many embryos when it's a danger to both mother and babies?

4. Who is going to take care of all those kids, and how are they going to support them? Taxpayers' money? The kindness of strangers? It's going to cost millions just for the bare necessities for the 8, let alone the 6 others. And the birthing and extended hospital stay (for the octuplets) is going to cost well over $1,000,000.00.

5. Are they going to cram all those 14 kids into 1 bedroom? The grandfather claims they have another large house somewhere (that he refuses to disclose), but is that true? And if not how are they going to manage? Aren't there legal issues regarding how many people can live under one roof?

6. How is she going to nurture, love and give enough attention to all 14?

7. What is wrong with this woman's parents?

8. What is wrong with her?

Frankly, I find the whole situation rather obscene.

UPDATE 1/31/09

This story gets more bizarre by the day. According to her mother Angela, Nadya Suleman (we finally have a first name), has been obsessed with having babies since she was a teen, and ALL 14 children were through in vitro! She is definitely not married, and has a degree in child and adolescent development. She is studying for master's degree in counseling. She also apparently had some psychological counseling of her own to deal with her obsession, which obviously did no good.

This young woman has major problems and has been failed by her parents, the psychologist, and the fertility doctors. Someone should have said NO, at some point. I feel sorry for those poor children!

Bad Boy Blagojevich Goes Bonkers

I can't decide whether Rod Blagojevich is incredibly stupid, supremely arrogant, totally nuts or all of the above. Maybe that mop of hair has somehow put too much pressure on his brain and he's just flipped out. But you have to admit, the Illinois Governor has been highly entertaining these past few months, since he was busted trying to sell Obama's vacant senate seat. He's run the gamut from denial to defiance to paranoia to outright lunacy.

He's been in denial since day one, and continues to be so. In a recent interview with Diane Sawyer on ABC'S Good Morning America, Sawyer asked Blago if he had done anything wrong. His response,

"Absolutely not and I'll have a chance in a criminal case to show evidence and bring witnesses. And this impeachment trial actually gives me an opportunity, if it was fair, if it allowed me to actually bring witnesses, to prove that the allegations are not true."

Does he truly think he will be exonerated when FBI wire taps have him saying things like

"I got this thing and it's bleepin' golden. I'm just not giving it up for bleepin' nothing.".

And, he claims the Illinois house is out to get him because he helped the people of Illinois.

"The causes of the impeachment are because I've done things to fight for families."

Huh? What delusional, paranoiac world is this man living in? But I guess he might as well chalk it up to some kind of conspiracy theory since he has no other leg to stand on.


His latest bizarro act is claiming he had considered offering the seat to Oprah Winfrey. How wacky is that?!

And it's not just trying to auction off the senate seat the man is guilty of. The Chicago Sun Times compiled the following list of transgressions:

1. Gov. Blagojevich plotted to auction off President-elect Barack Obama's U.S. Senate seat for personal benefit.

2. Blagojevich tried to get members of the Chicago Tribune editorial board fired.

3. The governor signed a bill in exchange for a campaign contribution from the horse racing industry.

4. Blagojevich awarded a Tollway contract in exchange for campaign contributions.

5. The governor threatened to withhold reimbursements to hospitals and doctors in Illinois in exchange for campaign contributions.

6. The governor engaged in pay-to-play in making appointments, and plotted to award a state job to Ali Ata with the Illinois Finance Authority in exchange for campaign contributions.

7. The governor tried to award state contracts to Joseph Cari for campaign contributions.

8. Blagojevich attempted to exchange state permits for campaign cash.

9. The governor failed to abide by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules and unlawfully expanded the FamilyCare program.

10. Blagojevich purchased additional flu vaccines without proper approval, making the sale illegal.

11. The governor attempted to import prescription drugs from Canada without consent of the Food and Drug Administration.

12. Blagojevich did not follow the appropriations process when he allocated money for the Agency Efficiency Initiative.

13. The governor violated both state and federal laws in the firing and hiring of various state employees.

That's some list of accomplishments!

As entertaining as this whole saga has been, I find the man incredibly distasteful. He looks like a a 2-bit thug, and you have to wonder how on earth did he manage to get elected Governor of Illinois not once, but twice!

If he had any shred of dignity he would have stepped down ages ago. And had he been a Republican, this prolonged circus act would have ended long ago.

Adolf Hitler Taken From Parents Home In New Jersey

Yup, young Adolf Hitler (3) is alive and well and living in New Jersey with his parents. At least he was living with them until New Jersey's Division of Youth and Family Services removed Adolf and his other 2 siblings from their home- 1 year-old JoyceLynn Aryan Nation, and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie who is 8-months-old. No reasons were given for removal. But N.G. Berrill (forensic psychologist) considers naming a kid Adolf Hitler child abuse. Which it is. Mind-pollution at its best.

"Part of it is the infantile nature of the parents’ behavior," Berrill said. "You can name your dog something weird, but they think they’re making some kind of bold statement with the children, not appreciating that the children will have separate lives and will be looked at in a negative light until they’re able to change their name. It is abuse."

Adolf Hitler? JoyceLynn Aryan Nation? Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie? (Supposedly named for Heinrich Himmler!)

The family made news last December when Shoprite refused to sell them a cake decorated with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler". Heath and Deborah Campbell (the parents) were outraged. Daddy Heath complained that

"Other kids get their cake. I get a hard time. It's not fair to my children. How can a name be offensive?"

Though he claims he and his wife are not racist (yeah, right!) the house is filled with swastikas, Heath wears an old pair of boots belonging to a Nazi soldier, he doesn't believe the races should mix and he is a holocaust-denier. Papa Heath is also baffled why people are shocked by his son's name.

"They're just names, you know. Yeah, they (the Nazis) were bad people back then. But my kids are little. They're not going to grow up like that."

This is a perfect example of why people should be given intelligence tests before being allowed to bear children.

Palestinian Calls For Death To All Juice!

What kind?? Grapefruit, Orange, Pomegranate? Oh, the idiot seems to have written Zionist between "To All" and "Juice". Anyone know what Zionist Juice is? Tangy? Sweet?

Note the little kid behind the placard... bet he hates Tomato!

Photo was taken at a pro-Palestinian protest in Manhattan last week.

Such ignorance. Sigh.

Democratic National Convention- Haven For Moonbats and Misfits!

The Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Denver, Colorado commences today with the saviour of the world Barack Obama as the revered guest of honour. But in addition to Barry Hussein, his veep Joe "no-one wanted as Prez to begin with" Biden, the jilted Clintons (including daughter Chelsea) and other lefty notables, it looks like all the other usual suspects will be in attendance, as well. Yes, those career protesters who revel in the thought of having their posteriors dragged off to jail, because they have nothing better or more constructive to do with their lives; and most of whom are trying to relive the glory "give peace a chance" days of the 1960s. From aging hippies to young wannabees, to your generic lefties and typical anti-war activists, to anarchists and militant Blacks, Recreate68 is hosting a ragtag group of speakers and musical entertainment to demonstrate to the world their dissatisfaction with the U.S. as it is today. Although they claim that they are not looking to recreate the chaos and violence that erupted during the 1968 DNC, their decision to use "recreate68" as their motto, shows a clear lack of wisdom, typical of the left field.

And can anyone guess who is making a guest appearance as one of the speakers at the recreate68 protest-fest? Yes, indeedy, the Queen of the Moonbats herself, Mizz Cyndy Sheehan, is joining in all the fun. Did anyone truly think she would miss out on this photo op?!

Other lefty luminaries to speak at recreate68 are Green Party Presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney (yes, the former Democrat who beat the Capitol policeman in the chest back in 2006) and Green Party Vice Presidential candidate Rosa Clemente
along with
Ida Audeh, Palestinian refugee.
Kathleen Cleaver, Black Panthers.
Ward Churchill, anarchist, activist, former professor, author of the 2001 essay "Some People Push Back: On the Justice of Roosting Chickens" where he claimed we provoked the 9/11 attacks.
Mark Cohen, Chairman of Recreate 68.
Fred Hampton Jr., Prisoners of Conscience Committee.
Larry Hales, World Worker's Party, i.e. Communist.
Larry Holmes, Troops Out Now Coalition.
Ron Kovic, anti-war activist, veteran and author of "Born On The Fourth of July".
Glenn Spagnuolo, Recreate 68 Alliance.
Pamela Africa, MOVE Organization (anarchists)
King Downing, National Coordinator of the ACLU’s Campaign Against Racial Profiling.
Jenny Esquiveo, (Spokesperson for Eric McDavid, anarchist, in jail for conspiring to blow up corporate and government buildings in 1977.)
Mumia Abu Jamal, Recorded from Death Row (for the murder of a police officer). Former Black Panther activist.
Gloria Estela La Riva, Spokesperson for the Cuban Five (jailed for espionage).
Ricardo Romero, National Coordinator for the Mexican Liberation Organization.
Natsu Saito, Author, Activist, and Human Rights Scholar on Guantanamo Inmates.
Ann Erika White Bird, American Indian Movement Spokesperson.



The DNC should prove incredibly interesting, if nothing else, with this group of moonbats and misfits.



And I'm still not counting Hillary out!

Operation Drill Bit- Or how do we get congress to change their minds about offshore drilling?

Todd Schnitt, a Tampa Bay, Florida radio talk show host, has a novel way to show our disdain for Congress's pitiful lack of concern for the outrageous prices we're paying at the pump by refusing to drill offshore. And although Obama is, once again, pandering to the American people by entertaining the thought of offshore drilling, Congress closed shop, on Friday, for their 5 week vacation, which means nothing will happen during the next 5 weeks- nada, zippo. Pelosi bid everyone adieu, effectively curtailing the debate, in spite of a semi-revolt by the Republicans, who stayed on the floor Friday, and were back on Monday, while their Democratic counterparts went their merry way.

Schnitt's "Operation Drill Bit" directive started off asking people to send drill bits to members of congress:

It’s time to reduce our dependency on foreign oil, and begin drilling our own resources… Now!

• That’s why we’re rolling out, “Operation Drill Bit”…
• Here’s what we need to do…
• Go to Lowe’s or Home Depot or whatever mom & pop hardware store you like, and buy a drill bit to send to your congressman or woman…
• In fact, buy at least 3…
• One for your Representative in the House
• And one for each of your two United States Senators.
• Tell them you are sick and tired of gas prices, and of watching this great country borrow money from the Chinese to buy oil from the Saudi’s
• Click here to find the address for your senators and congressman.
• Click around on their web pages until you find their Washington, D.C. office… Don’t send anything to a local or district office.
• Include the message: IT'S TIME TO DRILL OUR OWN OIL NOW!
• Let’s flood Washington with drill bits to let them know it’s time to drill ANWR, the Gulf of Mexico and other domestic resources.
• We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take it anymore!!!



Since the Democrats inCongress have left us high and dry for the next 5 weeks, Operation Drill Bit has now morphed into

Operation Drill Nancy.

Schnitt is now asking people to send drill bits to Nancy Pelosi instead, so that when she returns from her lovely summer vacation, her office will be inundated with drill bits. If you love making a point, all drill bits should be placed in padded envelopes, please, and shipped to:

The Honorable Nancy Pelosi
H-232, U.S. Capitol
Washington, D.C. 20515
202-225-0100

Maybe Pelosi has a date with her Plastic Surgeon,
and that's why she closed shop.
