According to a CNN report, the esteemed Rev. Fred Phelps and his flock of easily deluded, religious simpletons are convinced that U.S. deaths in Iraq are due entirely to our tolerance of the homosexual lifestyle.

Members of this Topeka, Kansas "church" routinely picket funerals of military personnel killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, carrying signs such as "Thank God for dead soldiers" and "God hates fags."

Here are a number of oddly prescient quotes from one of the founders of this nation, and a relative of Dolly, the maker of Zingers®, Donut Gems, Angel Food and Pound Cakes.

Only 1% of the Internet contains pornographic material. So climb down off your high-horses, dirty-minded people. There's not as much mud down here as you think.

Here are the top ten stories of 2006 the news media didn't report because they were too busy following important stuff like the JonBenet Ramsey "story." I mean, she wasn't the Vice President whose buddies at Halliburton "sold key nuclear-reactor components to a private Iranian oil company called Oriental Oil Kish as recently as 2005, using offshore subsidiaries to circumvent U.S. sanctions", was she?

Here's a fun thing to do: Go to Al Gore's Carbon Calculator and see how you personally are responsible for the untimely demise of this planet. TIP: I found that lying will lower your score substantially.

Some people think I don't have a filter when I shoot my mouth off, but I can tell you for certain that I wouldn't have the balls to say the stuff Stephen Colbert did at the White House Correspondent's Dinner this year (Stephen's speech is towards the end, at 50-minutes/15-seconds).

Stephen Colbert deserves Journalism's highest honor (whatever that is), entertainment's highest honor, as well as the freakin' Nobel Peace Prize. His monologue at the dinner was recklessly brutal both to the Administration and to the Press—deservedly so. And the room's stony silence spoke volumes to Stephen's righteousness and barb-slinging accuracy.

His career-ending high-wire act makes the video nothing short of awe-inspiring. Except for the last filmed bit, which is pretty retarded (but then, after a 'truth cocktail' that stiff, you need a self-deprecating chaser shot of tap-dancing to make it out of the building alive). Kudos, Mr. Colbert.

Do you like garlic? I mean, really like garlic? I mean, like it so much you don't mind people gagging at your mere scent? Would you bathe in the stuff if you could? Then you've got to go to Gilroy, California. It is in the middle of nowhere (southeast of San Jose) and home of America's premier and darn near ONLY garlic resources. And guess what? They have a festival. Yeah!
