It’s damn shame that Gomer wasn’t on our side. Can you imagine having his internet sleuthing skills working to bring down the Organized Crime Party? We’d be well into our 2nd decade of peace and prosperity…instead we can only ridicule the innertube’s Inspector Clousseau sideshow while the main attraction - the US economy, starts the slide into oblivion.

OT - TBogg, could you rip Richard Cohen’s Sep 23 piece of shit to pieces for us?

Muchas gracias, as the kids say.

Sucker that I am I clicked through all of the links in the Confederate Yankee post. Nothing he provided counters any of the information he finds questionable. He provided this quote:

At the same time, current Police Chief Long’s statement of, “A review of files and case reports within the Wasilla Police Department has found no record of sexual assault victims being billed for forensic exams” would seem to stand on it’s own, would it not?

The quote has no reference point and no context in which to examine it.

Meanwhile we have this:

I sat with a rape victim during the “harvesting of evidence”. Mascara smeared eyes stared blankly out from a cave of shame. “We’ve got swimmers,” announced the forensic tech in the lab next door. My friend didn’t look surprised. In her 60’s, she was still asked if she felt the need for emergency contraception. Surviving the process would have only been compounded and made worse with an itemized bill; victimized twice courtesy of Sarah Palin and the city of Wasilla.

Yeah, everything about this story screams vast liberal conspiracy. In my daydreams I am a third degree black belt with a license to use deadly force issued from the Secret World Government. They have sent me into the streets of the United States to kick Republican ass. The more ignorant they are the harder they fall. The climax of the daydream comes when I stand atop the unconscious mountain of wingnut bodies and hold my fists up to heaven triumphantly. It’s a happy daydream.

Gee. Wonder if Gomer has ever tried that there Google tingee. If he had, he would no two relevant things. First, Alaska has one of the highest incidences of rape of any state (it is that boldly independent frontier spirit in action). Second, the local police chief at the time went on record in the press as saying that they had charged the rape kits to the victims insurance (in response to the Alaskan legislature banning hte practice). Fucking misogynist idiot.

Gomer’s investigative skills have never been the same since Mother Nature destroyed his best grill. The new grill doesn’t provide anywhere near the same insight and deductive faculties.

It’s just sad.

Perhaps if he stopped huffing the lighter fluid he’d have a better shot at things like coherence and logic. But with a solid core stainless steel wingnut like him there’s no guarantee, of course…

Ol’ Gome must be distracted. While he was bloggeratin’ he forgot to mention:
“There wouldn’t be no rapes if them wimmin stopped askin fer it. “

Ah, no _victims_ were billed (directly). Don’t you see…it’s DIFFERENT if their INSURANCE was billed! Because, y’know, they ALL had health insurance!

*spit*

FunnyD

Palin’s “Pay Back and Enjoy It” Rape Kits are now on sale in bucolic small towns throughout the Red States Archipelago.

That’s Just What I Said
