The dems put that bumper sticker on their rear bumper. The non-brain dead put it on their front bumper.

 

Destruction of Israel

President of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

"God willing, in the near future we will witness the destruction of the corrupt occupier regime," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying during a speech to foreign guests who attended ceremonies marking the 18th anniversary of the death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini

Ahmadinejad said last summer's war between Israel and Hezbollah showed for the first time that the "hegemony of the occupier regime [Israel] had collapsed, and the Lebanese nation pushed the button to begin counting the days until the destruction of the Zionist regime," Ahmadinejad is quoted as saying.

Dangerous man? You better believe it!

 

Freezer Maven Jefferson

Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) was indicted Monday June 4^th. Could it be our commentary in last weeks CSW did some good (see Brrrr)? Of course not, but our prognostication was right on.

Racketeering, soliciting bribes, wire fraud, money-laundering, obstruction of justice, conspiracy, and violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act are being charged and if found guilty on all charges, Jefferson could be sentenced to over 230 years in the hoosegow.

Jefferson's local NAACP chapter is supporting him. A local representative said, "When it’s all over, Bill Jefferson will stand up like Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver. He will stand up in the South and he will be victorious," said the Rev. Samson "Skip" Alexander.

Jefferson's support group contends that the 16 count indictment is the work of a Republican White House and the Justice Department scheming to target black Democratic leaders and shift attention from legal troubles of Republican congressmen.
