Ministers Move To Electrocute Sex Offenders
YOU join us in a caravan in Rhyl, where a man is strapped to a chair. There are wires. A figure sits to the rear.
Figure: “Are you a pervert.”
Man: “No.”
It’s the Ministry of Justice’s pilot scheme that uses polygraph tests on sex offenders living in the community. Wires are attached to genitals and the offenders’ blood flow monitored.
We need homogeny in all, the fear being that one tester’s voice will cause a reaction different to another’s. For such reasons Victoria Beckham’s voice has been ruled out as a “Menace To Public Safety” and the voices of all American women are being used as a sexual cosh to quell all and any lustful thoughts.
The voice settled upon is that of Jacqui Smith, it being the pervert’s Voice Of Choice.

Tony Blair On The Daily Show
TONY BLair today starts his teaching career at Yale University, Euan Blair’s old haunt, , leading a seminar group on “faith and globalisation”.
Blair is participating in the “Faith and Globalization Initiative,” a three-year collaboration among Yale’s Divinity School, School of Management and the Tony Blair Faith Foundation.
Says John Stewart, on whose Daily Show tony is appearing to plug his product:
“Faith and globalization: Which side is winning?”
Tony:
“Bits of religion are very extreme, and the other you can see in the work that faith groups do to alleviate poverty and disease and do great things in the world,” Blair said. “So the question is, in the 21st century, which predominates: the good part that brings them together, or the bad part that pulls them apart?”
Or the bombs that allow God to sort it all out..?
Stewart: “Your relationship with George Bush seems .. inexplicable.”

Sarah Palin’s Sambo Beats Vladimir Putin
SARAH Palin’s alleged “sambo” comment on Barack Obama may have been her exercising her foreign policy nous.
Anroak has been reading up on the life of Vladimir Putin, and learns from his former martial arts instructor, Anatoly Rakhlin:
Putin began sambo (a Soviet martial art developed for the Red Army and the NKVD) before switching to judo. That is when Putin’s talent for martial arts began to show.

LYNN Forester, Lady de Rothschild tells CNN on the matter of Barack Obama:

Sweet FA: Banning Things Is The Labour Party’s Competitive Sport
SINCE 1997, the Labour Government has created more than 3,600 new criminal offenses.
As it says, “Britons can now be charged with everything from importing Polish potatoes to holding an unlicensed concert in a church or community hall.”
The challenge is to find more things to ban. You want more? You can’t handle more:

Polly Tonybee Wants Gordon Brown To Be As Consistent As She Is
POLLY Toynbee is a Guardian columnist and president of the Social Policy Association. She is a solid and clear voice, an opinion former:
“A cabinet of minnows and spineless backbenchers include many – perhaps most – who want Brown gone, but lack the nerve to act. They wait for someone else, for Brown to walk away or for a proverbial bus to save them from the task” – Polly Tonybee, Sep 6, 2008
Not to be confused with this Polly Tonybee:
“…as they stepped into No 10 yesterday, here was as decent and clever a team of ministers as ever graced the cabinet table. Two Milibands, Ed Balls, Jackie Smith, Harriet Harman, Alan Johnson, Douglas Alexander, Peter Hain and Hilary Benn – with the likes of John Denham and Yvette Cooper in attendance – present a good front. It’s certainly the most genuinely united government in living memory” – Polly Tonybee, June 29 2007
Consistency is what we’re after…

Truthers For Barack Obama
WHAT’S the secret of Barack Obama’s success? Steve Schmadeke, of the Chicago Tribune, knows:
Much of Barack Obama’s political success can be traced to a database listing contact information for millions of people, a tool that has proved invaluable in raising record sums of money and organizing a national volunteer network.
So how does that work, then?
Now Obama’s presidential campaign is increasingly using the list to beat back media messages it does not like, calling on supporters to flood radio and television stations when those opposed to him run anti-Obama ads or appear on talk shows.
An example?

Witch Hunting Sarah Palin And Inside With Barack Obama
BARACK Obama is partying with his celebrity backers at the Greystone Mansion, California, followed by entertainment by Barbra Streisand at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel. It’s what the elite do. Says Obama:
“It’s about those who will never see the inside of a building like this.”
How do they get in, then? Do they knock, pay – it’s the $28,500-per-head Hollywood spare Change! do – or do they wait for a divine light to guide them? Thomas Muthee is knockin’ on Heaven’s door:
The pastor whose prayer Sarah Palin says helped her to become governor of Alaska founded his ministry with a witchhunt against a Kenyan woman who he accused of causing car accidents through demonic spells.

Sarah Palin Is Not As Woman Made
HAVING already had it established that Sarah Palin is not a woman, American’s National Organization for Women PAC announces that it endorses Obama-Biden.
It is no coincidence that I am joined in this announcement by so many allied organizations that collectively represent a broad and diverse cross-section of U.S. women. From teachers to social workers, from business owners to college students, women in this country are lining up behind the candidate who is out there every day standing up — clearly and consistently — for women.
Barack Obama is for equal pay for women. Sarah Palin is not a woman, or a man cow…

POW: Putin And Sarkozy’s Political Fight Club
RUSSIAN tiger hunter and lover Vladimir Putin is to train France’s pocket-sized leader Nicholas Sarkozy in the art of unarmed combat, reports Le Figaro.
Says Putin: “He is interested in martial arts and we have decided to do some training together.”
Anorak wonders if the two men have decided to save money on their respective armies by forming the Politicians Organisation de Wrestlers (POW)?
If so, it’s a good idea, and one trailed by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

Russia Calls Sarah Palin A ‘Shreiking Cow From Alaska’
SARAH Palin Watch: Anorak’s look at Sarah Palin in the news…
PRADA writer Timothy BANCROFT-HINCHEY considers Sarah Palin and what her election to Vice President would mean for Mother Russia:
The candidate for the Vice Presidency of the United States of America, whose experience in small town politics, mothers´day dos and the local hockey club is her claim to fame, threatened to open the gates of Hell by attacking Russia in the event of another invasion of Georgia in a televised interview on ABC (shown today). One question for this self-opinionated upstart: Do you know what a nuclear holocaust is?
Sarah Palin, Mrs. Nobody know-it-all shreiking [sic] cow from Alaska, the joke of American politics, plied with a couple of vodkas before letting rip in front of incredulous audiences while McCain coos in the background, cuts a ridiculous figure as she strives to be taken seriously.
Hell, she’s not even worth commenting on. Is she for real?

Celebrities Against Sarah Palin: Lindsay Lohan Rules
MORE on Sarah Palin and her relationship with celebrities. Celebs hold sway in US elections. Every top politico has coterie of star fans. But Sarah Palin has none. It’s another reason to like Sarah Palin.
Today, Al Gore’s penfriend Lindsay Lohan says he doesn’t like her:
I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin… Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?… Hmmmm-All of this gets me going-Fear, Anxiety, Concern, Disappointment, and Stress come into play… Is our country so divided that the Republicans best hope is a narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe?
Question upon question. But Lohan does have some advice, and an answer:

Celebrities Against Sarah Palin: One More Reason To Like Her
SARAH Palin and her relationship with celebrities. Matt Damon is f*cking her. Lewinsky is mouthing off. Pamela Anderson is sucking her. And now Pink, Jada (Mrs Will Smith), and Meg Ryan comment:
Pink:
“If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin, it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map…This woman hates women. She is not a feminist. She is not the woman that’s going to come behind Hillary Clinton and do anything that Hillary Clinton would’ve been capable of … The woman terrifies me.”
We know the feeling.
