grrr. I'm (more or less) Catholic, ok? But the Church somtimes (a lot of the time) drives me absolutely nuts:
the Catholic Church is saying that condom use promotes the spread of AIDs. This is just wrong. This isn't a question of religious belief ("sex ought to = procreation"), it's the deliberate spread of misinformation that is putting thousands of people's lives at risk. arg.
More sickening news:
fuckhead wants to put up a memorial to Matthew Shepherd going to Hell in Shepherd's hometown. I don't get it. I get "I wanna be powerful and rich and control things" evil. I get sociopathic/conscience-less "I get off on hurting/killing" evil. It's scary and sick and twisted, but I get it. It's this petty, malicious, hateful evil that I just don't get. Where's the benefit? What's the point? ugh.
Putin's Democratic Present Fights his KGB Past - interesting article about Putin and his KGB background. But dude, how bad-ass does he look in that photo? Totally ex-secret agent man.
sleep appears to rescue memories - huh. I wonder if that’s why my memory is so crappy - four years of little/ill/no sleep might’ve done some damage, yeah?

President Bush told the press on Tuesday that he doesn't "have any idea" whether the senior administration officials who blew a CIA operative's cover will ever be found.

To date, the President hasn't even discussed this matter with his staff.
We've already done the President's homework for him by writing the affidavit. Now let's show him how easy it is for innocent people to legally declare their innocence. You can sign the affidavit and send it to the President in under a minute by filling out the form below:
