    Some idiots in South Africa were running a petting zoo with cheetahs. Guess what happened.

    Some judge in Sussex County was fooling around with an attorney who regularly appeared in his courtroom. Guess what happened. [http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20120507/NEWS/305070030/Judge-losing-job-over-inappropriate-relationship-female-attorney?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|Home]
    Only in Delaware? He gets to stay on the job for six more months, so he can collect his full pension!

    That’s an outrage, MW. He should be out on his ear starting yesterday. In fact, he shouldn’t get any pension credit from the day he started harassing this woman.

    Ah, the brotherhood of the black robes. They sure do cover well for each other.

    What a crock of shit. There have been rumors about a bad judge going around for many, many months. Sad. This asswipe should be impeached and face criminal charges.

    Must be contagious. Newark police have arrested a neurosurgeon for fondling a patient. [http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20120507/NEWS/305070033/Newark-doctor-faces-sex-charges?odyssey=tab|topnews|text|Home]

    And here it comes:

    Later during the town hall meeting, a supporter asked Romney about the separation of power in the United States, remarking in an aside that she believed President Obama “should be tried for treason.”

    Romney ignored the comment, instead speaking generally about the role of the Constitution and criticizing President Obama for remarks in which he said an overturn of his signature health care law would be “unprecedented.”

    Mitt Romney is a most unlikely leader of a mob of teabagger rabble.

    Never take apart an old clock with an over wound main spring, especially if you don’t know what the hell you are doing. Bad things will happen, and you will end up in the emergency room getting a tetanus shot.

    They have Internet access in the emergency room now?

    Happened late last night. You wouldn’t believe how much potential energy, or latent, or whatever energy a wound spiral torsion spring has, until you unscrew the housing while it is still wound up.

    I knew conservatives wanted to turn back the clock, but that is just not going to work.
