Dog The Bounty Hunter

I always knew this guy was brilliant. Take a read.........

In the interview with Sean Hannity for the Fox News "Hannity & Colmes" show, Chapman denied being a racist and said he used the N-word conversationally when talking to black acquaintances.

"I thought that I was cool enough in the black world to be able to use that word as a brother to a brother," he said. "I'm not. I didn't know really know until three or four days ago what that meant to black people."

"I now learned I'm not black at all," Chapman said. "And I never did it out of hate."

"All black people in America I owe an apology to," Chapman said during in the interview. "Whether, how dark I think I am, I cannot say that word. I owe the rest of the people, whether they are black or not in America, an apology because people look up to me."

"If I could kill myself and people would forgive me, I would do that," he said.

Chapman also specifically apologized to his son's girlfriend, Monique Shinnery. But Shinnery told the Enquirer that Chapman's attorney, not the TV star, called with an apology.

Chapman also said he is making a deal to be buried at a historic slave burial ground near George Washington's Mount Vernon home.

"I want to be buried right where they're at because I will never be forgiven as (long as) I'm alive," Chapman said.

Chapman appeared on CNN's "Larry King Live" on Wednesday night. He told King that he used the N-word not because of Shinnery's race, but to make a point with his son, who had served time for robbery.

"I referenced it, the only word I know, that would hurt his feelings or catch his attention very fast � never as a prejudicial or racial slur or anything like that," Chapman said.(from yahoo.com)

I don't even know where to start. He thought he was cool enough in the black world to use the word brother to brother? I though he was talking to his son. Whatever. Here are some video links to his interviews......priceless!

Paris Hilton

Of course we have to include a quote from our own American Princess, her words not mine, and I quote " I’m like an American princess."

People are going to judge me: "Paris Hilton, she uses money to get what she wants." Whatever, I haven't accepted money from my parents since I was 18. I've worked my ass off. I have things no heiress has. I've done it all on my own, like a hustler.

PARIS HILTON, Los Angeles Times, Aug. 18, 2006

Like a hustler. At least she knows what she's doing. Have to give her credit for that.

Ann Colture

This one is better watched. As usual Ms. Colture has foot-in-mouthitis. Here is the transcript, I have included a link to the video also. It really shows how Coulter argues. She makes up statements and developes arguments around them as if they were true.

Watch the video here.

Coulter: "Canada used to be one of our most loyal friends and vice-versa. I mean Canada sent troops to Vietnam - was Vietnam less containable and more of a threat than Saddam Hussein?"

McKeown interrupts: "Canada didn't send troops to Vietnam."

Coulter: "I don't think that's right."

McKeown: "Canada did not send troops to Vietnam."

Coulter (looking desperate): "Indochina?"

McKeown: "Uh no. Canada ...second World War of course. Korea. Yes. Vietnam No."

Coulter: "I think you're wrong."

McKeown: "No, took a pass on Vietnam."

Coulter: "I think you're wrong."

McKeown: "No, Australia was there, not Canada."

Coulter: "I think Canada sent troops."

McKeown: "No."

Coulter: "Well. I'll get back to you on that."
McKeown tags out in script:
"Coulter never got back to us -- but for the record, like Iraq, Canada sent no troops to Vietnam."

I have a funny feeling this won't be the last of Ann Colture on these pages.

NFL In London

Some brilliance from the NY Giants:

Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder confessed today he didn’t know until Tuesday that people spoke English in London.

Crowder, a former Florida Gator and Atlanta native, apparently isn’t sure where the plane is headed when it takes off this afternoon for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants in Wembley Stadium.

“I couldn’t find London on a map if they didn’t have the names of the countries,” Crowder said. “I swear to God. I don’t know what nothing is. I know Italy looks like a boot. I learned that.

“I know (Washington Redskins linebacker) London Fletcher. We did a football camp together. So I know him. That’s the closest thing I know to London. He’s black, so I’m sure he’s not from London. I’m sure that’s a coincidental name.”


Good thing he can play football I guess!

Congress

From Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif, 34 years of this rhetoric:

He once called a Republican colleague a "whore for the insurance industries." He called a fellow Democrat a "field marshal" on behalf of Israel. And, last week, he outdid himself by saying that Republicans were sending young soldiers to Iraq "to get their heads blown off for the president's amusement."

Whether you agree with the war or not this is ridiculous!

Say What?

When Ohio officials shortchanged some African-American precincts of voting machines during the 2004 election, lines grew long and tempers short. But one person untroubled by events was John Tanner, the head of the voting branch in the Justice Department's civil rights division. He even wrote a letter to the Ohio officials defending the decision to send machines disproportionally to white precincts.

When, the following year, the Georgia Legislature passed a stringent voter ID law that would have effectively disenfranchised many poor people lacking driver's licenses, many lawyers in Tanner's office saw it as an effort to suppress minority voting. But not Tanner. He quickly decided not to challenge the law.

Despite these questionable actions, Tanner largely escaped notice until a recent conference in Los Angeles, where he opined that voter ID laws might disenfranchise elderly voters but not minorities, because they "don't become elderly the way white people do. They die first."

They said what?

Every day I read or hear something that completely blows my mind. Something so utterly ridiculous that the only thing I can do is think "what the (expletive)". Some quotes are such classics that I feel they need their own hall of fame. This will be enshrine them forever in all their idiotic glory.

First to be enshrined is a quote from Bank Of America spokeswoman Betty Riess regarding the $3 surcharge levied against non-customers who use BofA ATM's:

Spokeswoman Betty Riess says the higher fees help offset the "significant investment" the bank has made to upgrade and expand its cash machines. The bank decided to charge non-customers a $3 fee at 10,700 ATMs — nearly two-thirds of its network — in bank branches and supermarkets as a way to "reduce wait time for our own customers," Riess says.

Now I am a Bank Of America customer and I can honestly say I have never had to wait to long at any ATM. This is ridiculous. Why can't BofA just tell it like it is. Something along the lines of "We want more money so you are going to pay this bullcrap fee and your going to like it. The other banks will be joining us soon and you will not escape the fees. Don't you know we need new boats!" That would be easier to take then some blowhard nonsense.
