Right Wing Evangelicals turned him homosexual
-Getting happy with "find & replace"-
Remember that episode of Family Guy where the FCC goes overboard and starts censoring everything? Peter turns on the TV and sees that The Dick Van Dyke Show has become The *BLEEP* Van *BLEEP* Show.
Something very, very similar has finally happened. According to the report, "OneNewsNow, the 'Christian news service' covertly owned by the AFA [American Family Association], receives syndicated content from providers like the Associated Press and edits instances of the word 'gay' to read 'homosexual.' Although the site is registered to the conservative, anti-gay organization, the fact is not disclosed anywhere on the site."
Turns out that some editor took AFA'a stylebook to a whole new level, as is demonstrated in this story about Olympic track star Tyson Gay:
Tyson Homosexual easily won his semifinal for the 100 meters at the U.S. Olympic track and field trialand seemed to save something for the final later Sunday.
On Saturday, Homosexual misjudged the finish in his opening heat and had to scramble to finish fourth, then in his quarterfinal a couple of hours later, ran 9.77 to break the American record that had stood since 1999.
Asked how he felt, Homosexual said: "A little fatigued."
The title of the OneNewsNow's article? "Homosexual eases into 100 final at Olympic events." The story has since been re-edited to weed out the lunacy.
Somewhere on that site, there may be a story about the anniversary of the Enola Homosexual dropping a nuke on Hiroshima. (PageOneQ)
-Headline of the day-
"Stupid House resolution of the week: National Corvette Day!"
Actually, that headline's from Friday, but that makes today National Corvette Day. Woo-hoo! Bitchin' 'vette day! Yee-Ha!
We've got two wars going, oil's so expensive you'll be able to retire on that can of WD-40 in your hall closet, and everyone's broke anyway -- what better time to dick around with BS resolutions celebrating sports cars guys in midlife crises buy? Rep. John Shimkus (R-IL) and 55 other congress critters couldn't think of any better time.
Included in the language is "Whereas the Corvette is the most widely respected production sports car in United States history" and "Whereas the Corvette is truly a symbol of American pride..."
Um, Ford Mustang anyone?
Anyhoo, enjoy National Corvette Day, sitting around your Corvette Day tree with your family, enjoying your Corvette Day turkey. (Politico)
-Call the expert-
Following Barack Obama's lead, John McCain is setting up his own Truth Squad that'll "respond to unfair attacks" on McCain's military record.
Here's the fun part. One of Baghdad Johnny's Truth Squaders is a guy named Bud Bay. In addition to having a name that sounds like a toilet that squirts water on your butt, Bud Day was also a member of Swiftboat Veterans for Truth -- the group that launched unfair attacks on John Kerry's military record.
I guess when it comes to unfair attacks on candidates' military records, Day's a real expert. He knows how it's done. (Think Progress)
