Tony Snow; infant marriage in Arkansas; smokin' Jesus. So Tony Snow is resigning as the White House press secretary, further evidence of the crumbling Bush empire. Reason given for leaving? "I will not be able to make it to the end of this administration, just financially". Financially. His $168,000 annual salary is not enough. Not. Enough. To. Live. On. So, liar or just jackass? You decide. Living up to all the stereotypes, Arkansas has apparently passed a law that allows infants to marry. The law was intended to allow certain minors to marry with parental consent, but lawmakers neglected to codify any sort of minimum age. The clear problem for right-wing conservatives: if infants can marry, should unborn fetuses be allowed to marry also? Or would that destroy the sanctity of marriage? A Malaysian newspaper apologized to Christians for printing an image of Jesus Christ holding a cigarette. Archbishop Murphy Pakiam, who had criticized the image a "desecration", accepted the newspaper's apology, but some are still calling for the newspaper to be shut down. Two thoughts: First, no one here in North Carolina would have thought anything of the idea of Jesus smoking a cigarette. Second, shouldn't more newspapers and other publications really be apologizing for portraying Jesus Christ as a white man? |

Tony Snow - Look up "Latrell Sprewell," "22 million dollar contract," "rejected," and "my family needs to eat." Infant Marriages - I'm TOTALLY getting myself an infant wife. So when I'm old, she'll just be coming into form. And yes, please let us marry fetuses, hence my phrase, "Good wives are raised, not born." Works on so many levels... White Jesus - Everyone knows Jesus had a career batting average of .278, 322 dingers, and played for the Red Sox, which would make him Latin American. Oh, and as Pedro Cerrano suggested, Jesus couldn't hit a curve ball for the life of him, or save humanity, for that matter. Effing newspapers... |
