Asses Without Heads for to Shove them Up – Bodies without Pieholes

What is up with teachers being unable to keep their hands and other private parts off of the student body? I mean this appears to be an epidemic. Every day we find additional instances of pedophile teachers.

Dan forwarded this post here about a Teacher of the Year, Keenon Aampay Hall, 29, admitting to raping a minor child who had come to her home for additional "homework" help. I don't know what "Keenon" means (or even to pronounce it), but I am sure it doesn't mean "one who preys on children."

This is just yet another story in the ongoing saga of teachers behaving badly with their students. Can you imagine any other business or profession, which if they had the number of cases of sex with underage children that Congress wouldn't be calling for a complete and thorough investigation?

Great point. And, yes, I am going to mention that very few are even talking about this epidemic. About the harm being done to children by those who they are forced to learn ... erm ... under. Children are our future and all.

WTF is wrong with these people? I can hear it now - and it will happen in my lifetime: more and more morally bankrupted souls arguing that pedophilia is an expression of a valid lifestyle - no different than any other expression of human sexuality. No better, no worse than say heterosexual intercourse between two married adults.

STFU!!!! I'm a Teacher, dammit!

On the other hand, where there is moral decay, there are more ways to make a buck! I received this screenshot from some chick who claimed to be from a different universe altogether. She drove a Plymouth Satellite and indicated that we on Earth seem hell-bent on going down the same road. Eventually, she signed the following (and I hope I got this right - she was 'speaking' so quickly), "people here on Earth will just lop off their heads altogether. The body has its needs... its impulses... to deny the body its own self-determination was found by many on my home planet to be intolerably unjust. As in, not in keeping with Nature's intentions. This explains why all of our trees are red."

Granted, it was an odd encounter. But she seemed sincere enough. I for one don't think it is a good idea to mandate decapitation at birth. I know it may sound conservative of me... or at least not progressive... but I think we have heads for a particular reason. Why would Nature give us heads if they were not essential? I know. i know... some of you will say, "Well Enoch, there's the tail bone. There's the appendix. Couldn't the head just be so much unnecessary baggage? A hold-over from more primitive times?" And I will grant you that while we may not know what our heads are for, without them how many asses would long for their butt-plugs?

Come to Jamaica!

"If only they could marry." Indeed.

Got Fatwah? [UPDATED x2]

Washington Times:

A bus-ad campaign that seeks to offer resources to those considering leaving Islam already has stirred up controversy in Miami and New York, but its next city may create the most fireworks - Detroit, the U.S. metropolitan area with the heaviest concentration of Middle Easterners.

The Detroit-area bus authority has refused to run the ads from Stop Islamization of America, an organization headed up by conservative activist and anti-jihad blogger Pamela Geller, prompting SIOA to file a federal lawsuit Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.

Read the whole thing, with regard especially to the Islamophobia charges of the leader of Michigan's CAIR organization, and then consider this, from Obama's Deputy Chief of National Security:

So, what does the Oddministration propose to call them? Wayward Cuddlebugs? I'm sure it's just another legitimate tenet of Islam.

I'm also sure that the Ground Zero Mosque Project is named Cordoba because of their plans to use lots of soft Corinthian leather:

Pam Geller speaks out.

UPDATE:

The Department of Homeland Security is trying to deport the son of a Hamas founder who told of his conversion to Christianity and decade of spying for Israel in a New York Times best-seller.

"Son of Hamas" author Mosab Hassan Yousef revealed on a blog hosted by his publisher he is scheduled to appear June 30 before Immigration Judge Rico J. Bartolomei at the DHS Immigration Court in San Diego.

Yousef said the DHS informed him Feb. 23, 2009, he was barred from asylum in the U.S. because there were reasonable grounds for believing he was "a danger to the security of the United States" and "engaged in terrorist activity."

An incredulous Yousef said the U.S. government's belief he is a terrorist is based on a complete misinterpretation of passages of his book in which he describes his work as a counterterrorism agent for the Israeli internal intelligence service Shin Bet.

Obama's Aunty Zeituni, though? Asylum granted.

Re-update:

Permit to protest Ground Zero Mosque yanked at last minute. No point in dawdling regarding that Sharia shite, eh?

And a thanks to Useful Info Nation for the kind endorsement, which has been reciprocated in our own blogroll.

The Census Jobs Scam

Via I Hate the Media comes a NY Post article that outlines the way the Oddministration is playing the Census to boost job numbers:

At the rate the Census Bureau is creating jobs, it may singlehandedly wipe out unemployment. Of course, the whole damn thing is as phony as Obama’s birth certificate, but phony seems to trump reality in Washington, DC these days.

The New York Post recounts the phony job count:

Last week, one of the millions of workers hired by Census 2010 to parade around the country counting Americans blew the whistle on some statistical tricks.

The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department. . . .

Each month Census gives Labor a figure on the number of workers it has hired. That figure goes into the closely followed monthly employment report Labor provides. For the past two months the hiring by Census has made up a good portion of the new jobs.

Labor doesn’t check the Census hiring figure or whether the jobs are actually new or recycled. It considers a new job to have been created if someone is hired to work at least one hour a month.

One hour! A month! So, if a worker is terminated after only one hour and another is hired in her place, then a second new job can apparently be reported to Labor.

A Twitterer last night affirmed that his son has been hired 3 times and fired twice by the Census people.

It also appears that Census workers have the right to compel your landlord to let them into your place to guesstimate how many live there, whether you're home or not or give permission or not, on pain of a $500 fine.

Completely unrelated would be the news that those unions that are getting all that stimulus money are not covered by the proposed DISCLOSE Act on campaign contributions.

Because some people have a right to privacy.

More Annals of Justice

Conklin Dairy Farms Inc. said in a statement Thursday that the undercover video shot by Mercy For Animals is missing context of how the farm is operated responsibly. The farm in Plain City in central Ohio again condemned the abuse seen in the footage.

The farm did not immediately respond to a message for further comment.

A Conklin farm worker charged with 12 counts of cruelty to animals remained jailed on Thursday after a judge set bond at $100,000.

Apparently, the guy's a vile cretin. Still, $100k bail for a farmhand? Why? He's an international flight risk?

Meanwhile, in Boston:

Two former managers of a company convicted of supplying substandard concrete to the Big Dig highway project in Boston have avoided prison time for their roles in the scheme.

A federal judge on Wednesday sentenced 64-year-old Robert Prosperi of Lynnfield and 53-year-old Gregory Stevenson of Furlong, Pa., to three years of probation, including six months of home confinement.

Federal prosecutors had requested prison sentences of at least seven years for each former manager at Aggregate Industries Inc.

One can only conclude that cows are more important than people.

Of course, if it turns out that the guy's a sadist or a jihadi, they'll have to show leniency. Holocaust, shmolocaust; it's jihad, baby!

Mercy for Animals, indeed.

The BP Blame Game

Yesterday, James Carville, in the midst of freaking out over the oil spill, said that Democrats could pin the blame for the mismanagement at the feet of the Bush administration (along with the economy that they inherited, as per Biden's latest gaffe-fest). The problem is, Democrats were adamant that the Clinton administration could not be held responsible for the intelligence failures that permitted 9-11, less than 9 months into Bush's first term.

After the weekend talk shows were full of Democrat political consultants begging Obama to do something, he's now going to give a blame-shifting speech, having cashiered Minerals Management Service Director Elizabeth Birnbaum. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar gave a sneak preview of the tough talk that we can expect when he said today that the administration was holding BP responsible and "have them by the neck."

How You’re Going To Be Made Responsible for Crappy (and Fraudulent) Pension Funds

Just horning in on Meep's turf, for a moment. Daily Caller:

The Casey and Pomeroy bills, say the two lawmakers and their staffs, are aimed at fixing a complicated problem. Many employers are withdrawing from pension funds as they face higher costs in paying for funds where mostly union beneficiaries outnumber payees and where the fund’s performance has been lackluster.

So, Democrats and some Republicans argue, businesses should not have to pay into a pension fund to support their own employees plus “orphan employees” of firms who have left the fund (the withdrawing firms do have to pay penalties and fees in order to exit a fund).

Casey staff used the example of YRC Worldwide Inc., a U.S. trucking company. About 40 percent of YRC’s pension costs “are to pay the pensions of people who never worked for the company,” said Casey spokesman Larry Smar.

“These costs threaten the company and its 40,000 employees,” he said.

But to take care of these “orphan employees,” the Casey/Pomeroy bill would create a new fund within the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation that would not be funded by premiums from business, which is the PBGC’s normal source of revenue. Instead, all pension benefits paid by this “fifth fund” would be “obligations of the United States,” according to the bill as currently written.

In addition, the PBGC is already in the red, with a deficit of $21 billion as of last fall. That shortfall is expected to increase to $34 billion by 2019, according to a report released earlier this month.

So if the already overwhelmed PBGC took on new obligations and said they were the responsibility of the government, that leaves little option other than using taxpayer funds.

Smar, Casey’s spokesman, said that “any cost to taxpayers” would be “offset” under the Senate pay-as-you-go rules, but those rules have been repeatedly flouted. Smar also said the senator’s bill targets only a handful of pension plans.

And in fact, one Republican on Capitol Hill argued privately Wednesday evening that the PBGC has long been considered to have an implicit government guarantee similar to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the failed mortgage giants that were taken over by the government in September 2008.

I want to know who this one Republican is.

Screw your implicit guarantee.
