A good conspiracy...

George W. Bush had Michael Jackson arrested so that the Jews, big corporations, and oil companies could kill minorities.

Tummy Ache...

I need to be more aware of what my stomach is saying to me when I eat. I was surfing the web and eating a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Everything But The..., and now, I have a tummy ache. I didn’t need the whole pint, maybe I only needed half. Heck, I didn’t need any of it. But it tasted so good. I’ve had three pints of Ben and Jerry’s in the last three weeks. I should be good for a while. And I was so tired and looking to go to bed early tonight :-(

I Love Dan Savage

I never meant to imply the superiority of morals in Canada to values taught in Saudi Arabia. I meant to state, loudly and clearly and for the record, the absolute superiority of morals in Canada to values taught in Saudi Arabia.

The big, fucking, liberal homo knows how to be open minded without losing his mind.

Challah Hu Akbar

"My Grandfather Nissim left Morocco in 1956 and moved the family to Israel, finally settling in the northern development town of Shlomi. Shlomi was populated almost exclusively by new Moroccan immigrants and everyone spoke Arabic. Consequently my Grandfather never really learnt conversational Hebrew. This made communicating with him hard because my Arabic was spotty at best. But when I would spend Shabbat there, I'd bring these sweet Jerusalem challahs with me, which he really loved. When he would declare "Challah hu akbar!" (Challah is great!) I knew exactly what he was talking about. Anyway, Grandpa Nissim passed away just over a year ago. This design is an hommage to him. Challah Hu Akbar, Grandpa, Challah Hu Akbar."

No Respect...

UN-acceptable...

Israel has leveled serious allegation against the United Nations, specifically, that a UN ambulance was used to transport rockets being fired from Gaza into Israel proper.

The UN, specifically, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for
Palestine Refugees in the Near East
(UNRWA) has thus far denied the accusation, and UNWRA’s chief Peter Hansen has called for an Israeli apology.

However, Kofi Anan has taken the allegations seriously enough that he has promised to send a UN team to Israel in order to investigate the allegations. Any takers on a bet that says the team either never goes, or is at least takes longer then the stated departure of next Tuesday?

If only it ended there. Peter Hansen, just today, told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that he thinks Hamas members are on the UNWRA’s payroll!! His reasoning?
"Hamas as a political organization does not mean that every member is a militant and we do not do political vetting and exclude people from one persuasion as against another."

Add to these comments the fact that Palestinians have used ambulances in the past for military purposes, and you’ve got a rather convincing case for the current accusation.

Actually...

I hate Bush because he has completely fucked up Iraq. I think it was the Right War, in the Right Place, at the WRONG Time. He didn’t listen to anything anyone said, and he screwed it up. He’s fired.

I also hate Bush because he has cut funding for internal child planning and abandoned women to suffer horrors that you and I can not imagin out mothers and sisters facing.

I hate Bush because he pissed on our Allies. He spurned NATO’s help in Afghanistan after 9/11, pulled out of Kyoto (correct move) without putting something else in place (Would you like some petrol with your burger?).

I hate Bush because the only mitzvah I can think of that his politics follow is the one about hitting the bad guy before he hits you. Does he value all human life? His lack of action, verbal or military, in Sudan suggests he does not. Does he value Democracy? Unclear, but he won’t push Russia on the matter, and didn’t do anything to correct the election problems that occurred during his own election.

Bush is horrible in just about everything I can find in Judaism. Am I voting for Kerry because he ain’t Bush? You’re damn right I am. I wish he was McCain, but Kerry will do for now. He can’t do any worse then the chimp in the White House has.
