Charmaine Yoest has a post up about Gabriel’s Angel Network, which is a site set up about Down’s Syndrome. At the site, they say

14 children with Down syndrome were born today.

126 babies like Gabriel were “terminated.”

As you read these words, over 100,000 people will search on Google and Yahoo for information related to babies, amniocentisis, prenatal testing, disabilities, birth defects, child development, or Down syndrome.

Gabriel is one of the fourteen blessed children born that day.

When I was pregnant, I was asked if I wanted an amniocentisis test. I emphatically answered NO. Kill my child because of a disability? Why bother with the test? I wouldn’t have done anything differently. Now you can get tested when 11 weeks pregnant, apparently a “good” thing, so you won’t have to think too much about that child being YOUR CHILD. So you can “make decisions.” Ugh.

The child in this picture is Gabriel. It’s really SAD, knowing that some women will kill their own child (that they would probably be ecstatic about if “normal”) because of a disability. I wonder, do they kill their parents when they become old and a “burden?” Their spouses? What if they have another child that’s fine, but has some accident that leaves them brain damaged? Do they kill them, too?

It’s depressing to me, knowing how the disabled’s lives have less–or no–value to (stupid–and most) people. Even people in wheelchairs or with walkers or canes feel it–I know, because I used a cane for a while after each of my six spinal operations. It’s like they (we?) aren’t real people any more; they’re defined by the equipment they use. People look at the cane or your leg, not your face. You’re not quite a “complete” person. I’ve been around the disabled enough that I know how people act around them. Think about how you look at “them.”

And what’s the damn difference with kids like Gabriel? Obviously, Down’s Syndrome is even worse. But he’s still a person, he still loves, laughs, cries, has things he likes and dislikes, just like anyone else. He just has trouble doing some things and understanding some things that we take for granted.

That’s what got me so into the Terri Schiavo thing; just offing human beings because they’re a “burden” is just heinous beyond comprehension. (I KNOW Terri Schiavo wasn’t like Gabriel; it still doesn’t matter to me.) It just completely frustrated and drained me. It’s been a year now and I STILL won’t write about it any more, mainly because other people are so fucking hateful if you happen to think “even” people like her deserve to live.

And so do kids with Down’s Syndrome.

Haha, I’m posting it again! It’s on Google Video now, so here it is!



I wonder if they’ll ban this video like the other one. No matter, I’ve got it downloaded.

I LOVE THIS! It’s almost like the Islamic Numa Numa–it even sounds like Dragostea Din Tei, but it’s not (it’s Balla Da Li by Boom Boxx). And what the hell, I’m putting Numa Numa here again because you may yet have only seen it 500 or so times. I still like the Muslim Rave better, though.




OK, OK, I’ll try to post something besides silly video today. Maybe. Party poopers.

What, honest parody is now banned from Google Video now? Can’t say I’m surprised.

No problem. LGF has the video.
More about “It’s In the Koran” at LGF and at MarkHumphrys.com. Also available for download at Patrick Henry’s site.

I’d host it here too, but I’ve already blown my bandwidth for the month. I’d be hosting this too, if I could. Next month, I guess.

God bless the man who wrote me this:

and…comments are overrated. so is freaking blogging.

Amen, brother, amen.

BLACKFIVE has them.

Shock! Awe! Click!

(Note the “Journalism?” tag)

I guess my laziness and occasional absent-mindedness are no secret, but I’ve “been meaning to” (how many times have I used that phrase?) write something like this. If you write anything–letters, a blog, comments, whatever–you need to read this. At the very least, bloggers need to read it just to save my sanity. PLEASE. I can’t tell you how many blogs I’ve seen where the writing is so bad it’s embarrassing to read it. You know when someone does something embarrassing and you have to pretend you didn’t notice it? Yeah. That describes some blogs. You probably know which ones I mean, too. Needless to say, I don’t read them.

Anyway, this guy actually writes for a living, so read it. Learn it. Live it. PLEASE. I was reading through the comments a little and caught this:

“For instance, it won’t correct you when you search for ‘alright,’ and rightly so, because everyone uses it.” (reference to another comment –ed.)

I don’t. That’s one of my “you lose 5 apparent IQ points” words. Actually, it should be one of the “10 IQ point” words, because it’s a common enough phrase that there’s no excuse not to spell it correctly, Google notwithstanding. It’s like using “nite” for “night” (which Google doesn’t catch, either — clearly Google should be used for less-common words).

THANK YOU. “Alright” drives me batshit crazy. I forgot to include that one in my previous Grammar/Spelling Nazi posts. I’m just going to leave this as is, though, because I could all too easily end up with another Grammar/Spelling Nazi post.

No, he didn’t really say that, of course. But you have to wonder, what the hell is he thinking? You know, the mainstream media accuses bloggers of hysterical speculation and slander (at least I made it clear that I was KIDDING about O’Donnell being on crack), and then he comes out with this shit about Dick Cheney probably being drunk when hunting? Give me a break.

How do we know there was no alcohol? Cheney refused to talk to local authorities until the next day. No point in giving him a breathalyzer then. Every lawyer I’ve talked to assumes Cheney was too drunk to talk to the cops after the shooting. The next question for the White House should be: Was Cheney drunk?

If that’s not wild speculation, then the definition needs to be revised.

I’ve had it with this bullshit story.

This whole thing is the most ridiculous bunch of ignorant partisan nonsense ever. It’s like NONE of these morons in the media or the left-winger partisans have ever gone hunting or known people who hunt–and the truth is, they probably haven’t. Hunting accidents like this happen OFTEN. This is just opportunistic bullshit. Sure, it’s a story–because it is kinda funny in a late-night talk show way, and because it happens to be the Vice President.

The White House’s and Vice President’s office’s mistake is and was not understanding that those people don’t understand it–for not speaking to their ignorance. They responded as though EVERYONE knows shit happens when you’re a hunter, that it’s an accepted risk, and they didn’t make a huge deal out of it. The stupid media jumped all over the White House for not freaking out about it themselves. Then, when Whittington had a mild heart attack yesterday, I can see why they wanted to “wait and see” before telling them–obviously they knew the media would be hysterical. This bullshit story has turned from the non-story of a hunting accident to the war between the White House (or specifically, Scott McClelland) and the White House press corps. But for Lawrence O’Donnell, apparently that’s not enough. Here’s more of his ignorant babbling:

I have never gone hunting with ultra-rich Republicans on a Saturday afternoon, but I have seen them tailgating at Ivy League football games, so it’s hard for me to believe that any of their Saturday lunches are alcohol free.

Well, duh, OBVIOUSLY you haven’t gone hunting. You obviously don’t realize also that Cheney has a bit of a heart condition that I would imagine dictates sobriety. But I guess that doesn’t matter. Hey, I’ve never gone to blog at the stupid Huffington Post with a bunch of left-winger morons, but I’ve been to concerts before and I’ve seen them “tailgating,” smoking dope and doing coke, in the parking lot, so it’s hard for me to believe that their time writing is drug-free. What kind of ridiculous logic is this, anyway? Hey, Lawrence: maybe you didn’t notice, but there are usually no guns around when you’re tailgating at a football game, and I would imagine that is particularly true with the “ultra-rich.” (Insert your own Auburn/Tennessee joke here.)

Next thing you know, we’ll be hearing the morons wanting to regulate hunting/guns some more. Count on it. Opportunistic bullshit. The vests weren’t bright enough! Nobody over the age of 60 can hunt! Make the birdshot different so it doesn’t spray! Ban bird-hunting! Make it illegal for Republicans to own guns!

To you dumbasses jumping on this story: You’re really becoming tiresome with your deranged crap. It used to be funny, now it’s just old. I’m just worried about there being so many paranoid, ignorant, and crazy people running around having jobs in the media and elsewhere. Scary shit.

Sorry, I’m not linking to that bunch of crap at the Huffington Crackhouse. You can find more at Dan Riehl’s or Outside the Beltway (both linked above).

Sorry, BEULAH MAE!!! fans, she’s sleeping off a hangover, but she’ll be around later today. I know you’ve all been waiting with bated breath for her, haven’t you? She left me a note to remind you to “commint at that thair movie’s for Mohommod thang,” though. And you can always watch this again, too.

A.M. Siriano says yes, we are. After elaborating upon three options for fighting Islamic extremism–appeasement, reform, or annihilation, he comes to the conclusion that in America, “moderate Muslims” who oppose Islamofascism and fundamentalism HAVE to step up and bring Islam back into the 21st century:

Many moderate Muslims, who don’t like the depictions (and why would they?), still believe that the cartoonists should be able to express themselves, but they also live in fear of the radicals—or so we are told. In most countries this is understandable, but hardly true in America. If a Muslim in America speaks out against radical Islam, does that person have something to fear? Well, danger always accompanies the man or woman who bucks the system (go ask Ann Coulter or David Horowitz), but of all places in the world, here and now, moderates have a chance to change their religion for the better, to truly recreate it as a force of peace.

It’s a good piece–go over and read it. I’d also say, as I’ve said before, that if more people besides the same few don’t speak up and fight back, I have a hard time believing they really ARE “moderate Muslims,” but rather putting on a good face to hide their true feelings of sympathizing with the radicals and terrorists.

He’s got a good website and blog that I’m adding to the ridiculously long blogroll–if you haven’t been there before, look it all over. I think you’ll agree.

OK, maybe not “we,” as in MVRWC. But still, you’ve gotta love this:

More fatwa-worthy shirts at T-Shirt Hell…as well as plenty of others. If you can’t find something to offend you there, you’ve got problems.

On being a Prince

At least once a day, I get letters from people saying, “how glamorous it must be to be a prince.” Well, yes it’s true I AM glamorous (LOL!), but being a prince isn’t as easy as you might think! It’s not all croquet and champagne baths and million-dollar bon-bons. There are many royal obligations you regular types wouldn’t believe. Public speaking, charity work, royal dinners, garden parties… and that’s just the “fun” stuff!

Being the son of a powerful king like my father is a hard job. When the mighty King Randor asks for something, he expects it to be done lickety-split, no back talk! I try my best to please him, but it never seems to be good enough. It’s always, “Oh Adam, you did your best, you’re still my son! Have you seen He-Man?”

He-Man. That’s half my problem right there. That fake-tan, bleached-blonde, goody-goody jock head! Sometimes I wish I could kill that part of me.
