Set the controls for the heart of the sun...

Straight from the horse's mouth, here's the video of the cat with the gat, in all his wookie-suited glory.

Yeah, he's a little crazy, but it's the right kind of crazy.

Every time they overreact, they alienate a few more people.; 12:53 PM, August 18, 2009

NattyBumpo said...: I read an article yesterday on CNN that had me laughing. They interviewed an SS officer and he informed the "reporter" that he was aware of all of the people in the parking lot that had guns and they were not concerned in anyway for the POTUS' safety. He said that anywhere the Pres was was .gov property and that guns were not allowed inside. OUTside, however, he couldn't care less so long as the local laws were upheld.; 2:05 PM, August 18, 2009

Really? You know this obscure(d by clouds) hippy music?

Mad Saint Jack said...: There is another side to this story that is bothering me.

The CNN reporter on the street said he saw a white man with a AR-15 shouting anti-Obama slogans. There is no proof or photos of anybody else with a rifle.

I am wondering if CNN is making crap up to feed the "racist gunnut" meme?

They have been caught faking gun stories before.; 3:56 PM, August 18, 2009

I mean, if a little tiny AR-15 sets their knees a quaking, firearms like that might make their heads spontaneously explode.; 4:00 PM, August 18, 2009
George said...: And, perlhaqr, that would be a bad thing?
