Clue: It is entertainment for the reactionary victim in the first place. It's most noted figure, Rush Limbaugh, is a drug-addled multiple -divorcee.

Hence the "moral values" and "strong on terror" overcompensating fibs.

I was told that lawyers charge too much money and I wanted to know what the requirements were to prepare a will. Am I able to prepare it myself if I sign it in front of a notary?

At least this the response neo-cons gave me? With this logic, only terrorists should care about the US Constitution. Are they right?

Dems never fail to run from a fight with Bush. I think this is laughable to see them talk tough on TV then run and hide form the big bad Bush.

Just how spineless are the DNC and the Dem reps as a whole?

This one has to go into the record books as a CLASSIC.

Air America reported that one of their very own nationally know correspondents, Randi Rhodes, had been mugged on a public street. To exacerbate this story, left-wing kook and fellow Air America corresponded Jon Elliott raged on and on about this mugging, pontificating that it was carried out by (wait for it) agents of Conservatives who were desperately trying to silence the voice of reason on Air America. Yes, Jon Elliott went on and on about this being a vast right-wing conspiracy to silence Air America.

Guess What? It turns out that Randi Rhodes had been out, walking her dog, AND SHE TRIPPED OVER HER OWN BIG FEET AND FELL ON THE SIDEWALK! That's right folks; no muggers; no vast righ wing conspiracy; no conservative assailants lurking in the shadows trying to still this voice in the wilderness, just another loopy liberal who can't walk and chew gum at the same time and a conspiracy kook tilting at windmills.

About a month ago I was at a party which was busted by undercover cops and they ended up giving out over 100 drinking tickets. I was one of them. The problem is I wasn't drinking. They came in and started writing tickets to everyone regardless of whether or not they had alcohol in their possession. I want to fight the ticket but I'm not sure if I have grounds to have it dismissed. Here are my details:
I was not in the room when the cops came in.
I was not explained what my rights were/what was going to happen.
I denied that I was drinking but the cop said, "Bullshit, I can smell it on you".
I have never received a ticket before so I was very intimidated.
I asked for a breathilizer test and was refused.
I was thrown into a line with everyone else to get the ticket and when the officer asked me how much I had to drink I didn't want to say anything, but the cops kept saying they were going to arrest me if I lied and they could smell it on me so I confessed that I had one beer.
