TIDBITS FOR THE END OF MAY

Orange Juice Leads To Arrest

On Memorial Day, Raibin Osman went in to a McDonalds in Alhoa, Oregon and learned the possible hazards of orange juice consumption. He landed in jail after calling 911 to complain that a McDonald's worker was rude and didn't give him an orange juice he ordered. Osman was charged with improper use of the emergency telephone number.

It’s a good bet he’ll stick with coffee from now on. Apparently one of the side effects of orange juice is terminal stupidity.

GOP Boss Steps On His... Tongue

Michael Steele, the first black Republican National Committee Chairman, recently told delegates at a Georgia GOP convention that the party can reach a broader base by opposing gay marriage, not just as a moral issue, but as a burden to small businesses that would have to pay spousal benefits to gay spouses.

Hats off to Steele who has made two points with a single statement: The same financial burden can be said of straight marriages, which Republicans tout as sacred; and a black GOP leader can be every bit as stupid as any white GOP leader.

G. Gordon Liddy Adds His Wisdom To Sotomayor Debate

G. Gordon Liddy, convicted felon and darling of the right, recently pointed out on the air that we should not worry only about Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s alleged racism. The comment is sure to win friends and influence people in any group consisting of white males.

Here is what Liddy said about Sotomayor, the first Hispanic woman to be nominated to the U.S. Supreme Court: “Let's hope that the key conferences aren't when she's menstruating or something, or just before she's going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then.” If you don’t believe it, click here.
