i'm not watching that idiocy.

as for the fox news interview, his response regarding his expertise in religion was so good, i think i actually tinkled a little laughing at it.  it's one thing to knock it out of the park with those hypocritical jerkoffs but it's another think to destroy them entirely.  holy shtein that was delicious.

A friend recently posted on facebook that her daughter was having problems with a bully at school and was seeking advice on how to best handle it.  One of the replies reads "Sound like that kid has some issues. pray for her. But Kick her ass first."

I think most people are aware when they are being hypocritical at times, except when religion is involved.  They just don't have a clue. It's kind of fascinating to me.

I love that Palin was the first to target the new pope, now he's got Rush saying that the Pope is Marxist.

I read a couple of days ago that the pope was saying before he was a priest  that among other things he worked as a bar bouncer in Argentina. Thought that was funny.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

QuoteCapital Punishment: Iran Billionaire Executed Over $2.6B Bank Fraud

TEHRAN, Iran — A billionaire businessman at the heart of a $2.6 billion state bank scam in Iran, the largest fraud case since the country's 1979 Islamic Revolution, was executed Saturday, state television reported.

Authorities put Mahafarid Amir Khosravi, also known as Amir Mansour Aria, to death at Evin prison, just north of the capital, Tehran, the TV reported. The report said the execution came after Iran's Supreme Court upheld his death sentence.

Khosravi's lawyer, Gholam Ali Riahi, was quoted by news website khabaronline.ir as saying that the death sentence was carried out without him being given any notice. Death sentences in Iran are usually carried out by hanging.

"I had not been informed about the execution of my client," Riahi said. "All the assets of my client are at the disposal of the prosecutor's office."

State officials did not immediately comment on Riahi's claim.

The fraud involved using forged documents to get credit at one of Iran's top financial institutions, Bank Saderat, to purchase assets including state-owned companies like major steel producer Khuzestan Steel Co.

Khosravi's business empire included more than 35 companies from mineral water production to a football club and meat imports from Brazil. According to Iranian media reports, the bank fraud began in 2007.

A total of 39 defendants were convicted in the case. Four received death sentences, two got life sentences and the rest received sentences of up to 25 years in prison.

The trials raised questions about corruption at senior levels in Iran's tightly controlled economy during the administration of former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
