Today's signs that the Apocalypse is upon us

....Welcome to Texas...unless you're gay. Oh, and if you want to kiss your partner in public, well, you can just go to New Mexico. That $#!%'s illegal here. What about the children??

....Thank God for this nation's arbiter of all that's Good, Right, and Holy, Bill O'Reilly. In this case, O'Reilly has taken it upon himself to remind President Obama that America is a Christian nation. Yeah, like you'd ever let us forget....

....Our President's books are harmful to our nation's security? Wow, I had no idea that Barack Obama was such an America-hating Librul.

....This is why I decided not to run with the bulls in Pamplona this year.

....And here I'd always thought that Jeb Bush was the "smart" Bush. Can we please get over the canard that Barack Obama is a Socialist? Or do you just enjoy airing your astonishing ignorance in public?

....Another WWJD public service: Emma Watson in leather. You're welcome.

....Today's Caribou Barbie fashion tip: how to look like a cross between a hockey mom and a pit bull. Youbetcha!!

....Ernest Hemingway was a KGB spy? Well, that would explain "The Old Man and the Sea", wouldn't it??

....This country would be SO much better off if we just forced everyone to fend for themselves: the world according to Rep. Roy Blunt (R-MO). Yes, that sound you heard was the social contract taking one in the shorts. Somewhere, Jean Jacques Rousseau is weeping....

....Things to do in Pyongyang when you're dead....

On the bright side, when drug warriors stoop so low as to jack with peoples First Amendment rights, it’s a possible sign that they’re getting worried about the lie. But still, this is quite disturbing.

Bob Newland is (or was) the director of the South Dakota chapter of NORML and a long time politically outspoken activist for reform of that state’s restrictive stance on medical cannabis. He was caught with 4 ounces of the prohibited plant that was destined for consumption by sick people.

The judge thinks he let him off easy.

[Judge] Delaney also told Newland that he is not to take a public role in efforts to legalize marijuana for the next year. Delaney suspended all but 45 days of the sentence however, any violation of the terms of his sentence will send Newland to jail for the full year. “You are not going to take a position as a public figure who got a light sentence, Delaney warned Newland. Delaney said Newland case was not a typical possession case. “I have an entire segment of society that will take note of this case,” Delaney said. Several of Newland’s friends and supporters were in the courtroom. Delaney said Newland’s advocacy was not an issue, what was an issue was the idea of an adult doing anything that would encourage kids to drink or do drugs. Juvenile courts are packed with kids who have drug problems, Delaney said.

Gee Judge Delany, how many of your doper juvies were influenced by Newland? Got evidence? Chances are, they don’t even know who he is. It’s ironic that the judge would attempt to rip away a person’s first amendment rights based on such insane logic.

What’s next Delany? Total disregard of 4th amendment protections against unlawful search and seizure just because a well trained dog licks his balls on demand? Asset forfeiture run amok? (Oops! Those are already common occurrences.)

But still, this new innovation in sacrificing liberties in support of an insane and ineffective drug policy should not go without recognition. Congratulations Judge Delany. You are bob’s Drug Warrior DumbAss‚Ñ¢ of the week. You haven‚Äôt heard the last of this.

Roy Blunt may be even stupider than you give him ‘credit” for. Read here: http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/vulnerable-republicans-want-palin-to-stay-home-2009-07-09.html
