Mayor Rob Ford is getting roasted like a pig by the media because he tried crack and likes to get drunk now and again. Trey Radel is an admitted drunk and coke head but he only admitted it once he was busted in a federal drug sting. Everyone in the media is feeling sorry for that weasel Radel while they are piling on all sorts of nasty insults onto my man Rob Ford.
What's the difference? The reason the media whores are talking shit about Rob Ford is because he's fat. The reason the media is not talking shit about Radel is because Radel is not fat.
The people see things differently. The citizens of Toronto still love Mayor Ford while American congressmen are hated more than rectal cancer.
Read the disgusting details here.
WASHINGTON — Rep. Trey Radel, R-Fla., was caught buying drugs
as part of a federal investigation into a Washington, D.C., drug ring
last month and is being charged with cocaine possession, according to a
senior Drug Enforcement Administration official.
The
official, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the case, said
several federal agencies working as part of a task force arrested a
dealer who told them one of his cocaine customers was a congressman. The
dealer, working with federal agents, set up a buy on Oct. 29, and
Radel, a freshman congressman first elected last year, purchased the
cocaine, the official said.
FBI agents later went to Radel's
apartment, where they detained him, the official said. Radel hired a
defense attorney who negotiated charges with a prosecutor, the official
said. Law enforcement agents never handcuffed Radel or took him to jail,
the official said.

George Zimmeraman Arrested Again
Florida is an evil and and Republican run state. They allow evil murderers like George
Zimmerman and Casey Anthony to walk free but what else would you expect
from a state that would elect criminal Rick Scott as its Governor?!
Looks to me like all the right wing false Christians who were foaming at their lying mouths while they were defending this animal are now eating crow.
BREAKING NEWS!
George Zimmerman Arrested in Florida Following 'Disturbance' Call

George Zimmerman, who was acquitted this summer of murdering teenager Trayvon Martin, has been arrested in Florida after deputies responded to a "disturbance call."
Zimmerman was arrested by the Seminole County Sheriff's Office at about 1 p.m. today, authorities said.
He will be transported and booked into the John E. Polk Correctional Facility.
No further details were immediately available.
The sheriff's office said they will be releasing the arrest report and 911 call as soon as they are available.
Today's incident is Zimmerman's latest run in with the law.
In September, he was released without charges after his wife called 911 to say Zimmerman punched his father-in-law in the nose and threatened to shoot him and his wife.
He claimed that he was acting in a "defensive manner" during the incident, according to police, who later added that they never found a gun on Zimmerman.
Zimmerman was acquitted in July of the murder of teenager Trayvon Martin by a retarded jury.
UPDATE: Zimmerman busted on domestic violence, criminal mischief and aggravated assault!

Gay Republicans
While checking stats on the Bigger Fatter Politics dashboard I have noticed may views from a news group called Political Jack. One very interesting thread that caught my eye was a thread titled, "I'm Here, I'm Queer and I'm Republican. It's no secret that when it comes to latent homosexuality and boy buggering, and pedophilia in general the GOP is a hot bed for all sorts of sexual perversion and sexual hypocrisy. GOP means meany thing to many people. To the righties it means Grand Old Party, to the religious right it means God's Only Party and to the sane and moral people it has come to mean Gang Of Pedophiles and Gay Old Perverts.
Here is some excerpts from that thread. The thread was started by some pedophile calling himself Log Cabin Republican. He starts out with the following: Log Cabin Republican will be in the purple typeface and The Messiah will be in blue.
I'm. here I'm queer and a Republican so get used to it.Hello all my handle is LogCabinRepublican and I'm an openly gay conservative.
Some people ask me how I can be gay and a Republican?
Well let me just say there is more to me than just my sexuality and I believe in freedom and the constitution.
Being gay doesn't automatically mean I buy into the progressive movement.
He is met by a religious zealot who calls himself the Messiah. Normally I don't like religious folks by the Messiah is mostly likely a Jesuit priest or some other sort of religious scholar who responds with a Colbert like post.
You know the old saying, How many Republicans can you fit into a closet? Ans... Nearly all of them.
There are a more rump wranglers in the GOP than in the Dem party. Lindsey Graham, Larry "The Fairy" Craig, Mark "Cornholey" Foley, "Ted Faggard"Haggard Bob "up and down of a dick" Allen, and Glenn "butt surf" Murphy.
The GOP most of whom are fundagelicals hate you Sodomites and would love to put you to death as per Leviticus 20:13.
I bet you like getting screwed in the ass and that is why you vote Republican.
The GOP/Gay Old Perverts don't want you. Don't believe me?
Mitt Romney’s only openly gay spokesman, Richard Grenell, left his job with the campaign after backlash from social conservatives/Christians. Obama would have stuck his neck out for you!
Wake up Nancy, if a gay Dem ran for president and he had good ideas he might actually win the nomination. A gay GOP candidate no matter how much money he had behind him would not even win a blue state let alone a red state. Republicans hate you Sodomites more than the hate the Hammites. They would elect a Black president long before they would elect a homosexual.
A member of the peanut gallery referring to the Messiah responds:
this ones quite the conundrum for the democrats here....
you have a gay republican...
seemed like a nice guy...[what little he was allowed to say in his introduction]..
and a shit-sputtering holy homophobe democrat...
hes all yours.
The Messiah responds:
No homophobe here junior. I am just pointing out how the False Chritians aka Republican are. They hate gays and I don't.
This rump wrangler can say whatever he wants. Nobody is stopping him. If he's a member of the GOP and gay then he is no different than an uncle Tom or a Nazi collaborator. He deserves no respect. Anyone who would sellout his own kind is a sellout.
Does the party draw closeted men because they can hide behind Republican homophobia? Or does the party promote homophobia as a political ruse while closeted men run the show? Whatever the answer, the result is routine humiliation and personal destruction. Even worse, the party’s culture of concealment encourages right-wing gay-bashing, such as Tucker Carlson’s grotesque boast that he and another adolescent thug beat up a gay man who “bothered” him in a bathroom years ago.
Males in the GOP have swallowed more "semen" than the Bermuda Triangle.
LogCabinRepublicanResponds:
You proclaim not to be homophobic yet here you are tossing eloquent terms like rump ranger and semen sucker. This is a fine display of the lefts true feelings on display.
Just goes to show that the left does not truly support the gay community rather gays are just useful pawns to push wealth redistribution schemes.
You are a very hateful disturbed individual and I strongly encourage you to seek help.
Btw as for getting screwed in the ass that is wrong I prefer to top.
The Messiah lower the boom with a well worded Jeremiad
BOO HOO or should I say BOOFU?
I am not on the left Nancy. I'm with the Lord thy God. Unlike the Republicans I am not fundagelelical who would follow Levitical laws and have you put to death. Lucky for you there are people, mostly Democrats and libertarians who don't want to see this country become a theocracy. As biblical scholar I know that Jesus was also a rump wrangler. I have nothing against rump wranglers and other BV-Deviants. I know that rump wrangling is not a choice and that on can not choose to be light in the loafers. In fact, as far as politicians go I really like Barney Frank. It makes no never mind to me that he like playing the skin flute.
Secondly Nancy, you saying that my sentiments, the sentiments of one person speak for the entire Democratic party is about as dishonest as it get. The ones supporting the defense of marriage act are the gay hating Republicans.
I can give Biblical precedence for supporting gay marriage. Jesus was John's gay lover. I support gay marriage 100000000% and I do on biblical grounds and on practical grounds. If you rump wranglers and rug munchers were allowed to be open about your sexuality eventually the gay gene would vanish from the gene pool and that would be good for humanity although choreography and interior decorating would suffer.
As to lesbians: God make lesbians so the feminists would not breed.
As to your preference to being a pitcher and not a catcher you sound like the little Greek boy who ran away from home because he didn't like the way he was being "reared".
You being flag pole sitter for the baloney cavalry doesn't bother me in the least nor does your fascination for the stink hole. What bothers me is your dishonesty. Rump wrangling and tonsil jockeying is not a sin. Lying is.

Fat Albert and Little Lotta and Political Correctness
Today's Fat Albert would be a LOT fatter than the iconic Fat Albert of yesteryear but would Fat Albert even be allowed in today's politically correct world. I think not. The real life fat Albert, Al Roker had weight loss surgery and he's a skinny runt now.
Little Lotta would be even more problematic these days. The fat feminists would probably kill the creator of Little Lotta. Lotta stories were penned by Warren Kremer and Howard Post, and for the majority of the years that she appeared in comics, she was drawn by Sid Couchey and Dom Sileo.

Sarah Palin Hates Fat People and The Pope
The whore is out shilling another worthless book
She hasn't held public office in four years. She hasn't run for public office in five.
Yet there Sarah Palin was earlier this week, on NBC's "Today" show, sparring with Matt Lauer about Obamacare ("This broken website I think is symbolic of a broken administration"), the tea party and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (he's "no Ronald Reagan").
There she was on CNN, telling Jake Tapper she was "taken aback" by recent "liberal" statements made by Pope Francis, as well as by Christie's "extreme" weight.
Listen Sarah you cunt, Chris Christie could be in diabetic coma and he's still be a better governor that you could ever dream of being. You Sarah are a quitter and Christie isn't.
Here is more shit that filthy slut had to say.
On the national debt: "There is another definition of slavery and that is being beholden to some kind of master that is not of your choosing. And the national debt will be like slavery when the note comes due."
On President Barack Obama: "I'll never forget Bill Clinton saying about Barack Obama and his story, his agenda, that it was the biggest fairy tale he'd ever seen. And he was right, because Barack Obama was not qualified, he was not prepared, and the manifestation of that today is the problem that we see left and right in our economy."
On congressional Republicans: "They threw the good guys under the bus. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee willing to stand strong on planks of the platform they ran on in addition to so many other politicians running on the idea of repealing and replacing ObamaCare. They finally had an opportunity to stand up and defund it and get America to debate the issue. And then they were thrown under the bus."
On Christie hugging Obama during Superstorm Sandy: "Perhaps it hurt Mitt Romney. I think it was unnecessary to literally be embracing Barack Obama at the time of such national import when it came to that campaign season. But, again, more important has been anyone on the GOP ticket who could support these policies of Barack Obama when it comes to granting amnesty to illegal aliens, for instance, or thwarting our Second Amendment rights or growing national debt."
Palin Lies and Lies
Palin lied when she said the dismissal of her public safety commissioner, Walt Monegan, had nothing to do with his refusal to fire state trooper Mike Wooten; in fact, the Branchflower Report concluded that she repeatedly abused her power when dealing with both men.
Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed to have said, "Thanks, but no thanks" to the Bridge to Nowhere; in fact, she openly campaigned for the federal project when running for governor.
Palin lied when she denied that Wasilla's police chief and librarian had been fired; in fact, both were given letters of termination the previous day.
Palin lied when she wrote in the NYT that a comprehensive review by Alaska wildlife officials showed that polar bears were not endangered; in fact, email correspondence between those scientists showed the opposite.
Palin lied when she claimed in her convention speech that an oil gas pipeline "began" under her guidance; in fact, the pipeline was years from breaking ground, if at all.
Palin lied when she told Charlie Gibson that she does not pass judgment on gay people; in fact, she opposes all rights between gay spouses and belongs to a church that promotes conversion therapy.
Palin lied when she denied having said that humans do not contribute to climate change; in fact, she had previously proclaimed that human activity was not to blame.
Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska produces 20 percent of the country's domestic energy supply; in fact, the actual figures, based on any interpretation of her words, are much, much lower.
Palin lied when she told voters she improvised her convention speech when her teleprompter stopped working properly; in fact, all reports showed that the machine had functioned perfectly and that her speech had closely followed the script.
Palin lied when she recalled asking her daughters to vote on whether she should accept the VP offer; in fact, her story contradicts details given by her husband, the McCain campaign, and even Palin herself. (She later added another version.)
Palin lied when she claimed to have taken a voluntary pay cut as mayor; in fact, as councilmember she had voted against a raise for the mayor, but subsequent raises had taken effect by the time she was mayor.
Palin lied when she insisted that Wooten's divorce proceedings had caused his confidential records to become public; in fact, court officials confirmed they released no such records.
Palin lied when she suggested to Katie Couric that she was involved in trade missions with Russia; in fact, she has never even met with Russian officials.
Palin lied when she told Shimon Peres that the only flag in her office was the Israeli flag; in fact, she has several flags.
Palin lied when she claimed to have tried to divest government funds from Sudan; in fact, her administration openly opposed a bill that would have done just that.
Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed that troop levels in Iraq were back to pre-surge levels; in fact, even she acknowledged her "misstatements," though she refused to retract or apologize.
Palin lied when she insisted that the Branchflower Report "showed there was no unlawful or unethical activity on my part"; in fact, that report prominently stated, "Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act."
Palin lied when she claimed to have voiced concerns over Wooten fearing he would harm her family; in fact, she actually decreased her security detail during that period.
Palin lied when asked about the $150,000 worth of clothes provided by the RNC; in fact, solid reporting contradicted several parts of her statement.
Palin lied when she suggested that she had offered the media proof of her pregnancy with Trig to "correct the record"; in fact, no reports of her medical records were ever published; and the letter from her doctor testifying to her good health only emerged hours before polling ended on election day, even though there was nothing in it that couldn't have been released two months earlier.
Palin lied when she said that "reported" allegations of her banning Harry Potter as mayor was easily refutable because it had not even been written yet; in fact, the first book in that series was published in 1998 - two years into her first term - and such rumors were never reported by the media, only circulated as emails.
Palin lied when she denied having participated in a clothes audit with campaign laywers; in fact, the Washington Times later confirmed those details.
Palin lied when asked about Couric's question regarding her reading habits; in fact, Couric's words were not, "What do you read up there in Alaska?" or anything close to condescension.
Palin lied when she mischaracterized the "$1200 check" given to Alaskans as the permanent fund dividend check; in fact, that fund had yielded $2,069 per person, and she claimed otherwise to obscure the fact that Alaskans also received a $1200 rebate check from a windfall profits tax on oil companies - a tax widely criticized by Republicans.
Palin lied when she claimed to be unaware of a turkey being slaughtered behind her during a filmed interview; in fact, the cameraman said she had picked the spot herself, while the slaughter was underway.
Palin lied when she denied having rejected federal stimulus money; in fact, she continued to accept and reject the funds several times.
Palin lied when she claimed that legislative leaders had canceled a meeting with her to hold their own press conference; in fact, they only canceled it after being told she would not participate, and the purpose of the press conference was very different from the meeting's.
Palin lied when she announced on the news that she never holds closed-door meetings; in fact, she had just attended a closed-door meeting with the legislature earlier that day.
Palin lied when she said that former aide John Bitney's "amicable" departure was for "personal" reasons; in fact, Bitney said he was fired because of his relationship with the wife of Palin's friend, plus a Palin spokesperson later claimed "poor job performance" for his firing - without elaborating.
Palin lied when she said she kept her running injury a secret on the campaign trail; in fact, her bandaged hand was clearly visible in photographs and the story was widely talked about.
Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska has spent "millions of dollars" on litigation related to her ethics complaints; in fact, that figure is much, much lower, and she had initiated the most expensive inquiry.
Palin lied when she denied that the Alaska Independence Party supports secession and denied that her husband had been a member; in fact, even the McCain campaign noted that the party's very existence is based on secession and that Todd was a member for seven years.

Greedy Cardiologists Recommend Wider Use of Statin Drugs
Dramatically escalating the fight against heart attacks and strokes, the nation's cardiologists have rewritten the guidebook on how Americans should be treated with statins and unveiled a plan that could double the number of patients taking the cholesterol-lowering drugs to about 70 million.
Revised guidelines, which could double the number of Americans taking the cholesterol-lowering medications, emphasize statins' ability to prevent heart attacks and strokes. The problem with this statement is STATIN DRUGS DON'T LOWER THE RISK HEART ATTACKS OR STROKES but the have a butt load of side effects. Let me repeat that.

Statin Drug Side Effects
The most common statin side effects include:
- Headache
- Difficulty sleeping
- Flushing of the skin
- Muscle aches, tenderness, or weakness (myalgia)
- Drowsiness
- Dizziness
- Nausea and/or vomiting
- Abdominal cramping and/or pain
- Bloating and/or gas
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Rash
Statins also carry
warnings that memory loss, mental confusion, high blood sugar, and type 2
diabetes are possible side effects. It's important to remember that
statins may also interact with other medications you take.
Which Statin Side Effects Are Serious?
Statins are associated with a few rare, but potentially serious, side effects including:
- Myositis, inflammation of the muscles. The risk of muscle injury increases when certain other medications are taken with statin use. For example, if you take a combination of a statin and a fibrate -- another cholesterol-reducing drug -- the risk of muscle damage increases greatly compared to someone who takes a statin alone.
- Elevated levels of CPK, or creatine kinase, a muscle enzyme that when elevated, can cause muscle pain, mild inflammation, and muscle weakness. This condition, though uncommon, can take a long time to resolve.
- Rhabdomyolysis, extreme muscle inflammation and damage. With this condition, muscles all over the body become painful and weak. The severely damaged muscles release proteins into the blood that collect in the kidneys. The kidneys can become damaged trying to eliminate a large amount of muscle breakdown caused by statin use.
