Ths Sunday Best.....
The Speaker's scapegoat: Official who signed off MPs' expenses didn't even have accountancy qualification. The Speaker must go.
Dissolve this rotten Parliament before it corrupts public life altogether. Sack the lot and start afresh. Use the military to remove them if necessary.
13 days, 2 hours and 50 minutes ... now that IS a marathon: Soldier who lost use of legs in Iraq finishes London race. A true hero.
Breathtaking account of one of Second World War's most dangerous jobs.... gunner on a Lancaster bomber. Amazing.
Brown the most unpopular PM since polling began - and half want him to quit now. The other 50% want to string him up.
Revealed: The secret report that shows how the Nazis planned a Fourth Reich ...in the EU. The EU isn't much different.
Helmand commanders prepare for a summer of violence as four dead soldiers named. We must stop fighting a 'media friendly' war.
Barack Obama's rich supporters fear his tax plans show he's a class warrior. The penny drops. Bit bloody late now.
Dmitry Medvedev at Moscow missile parade: 'Russia will teach aggressors a lesson'. He knows their is a wimp in the White House. This century is shaping up to be potentially the bloodiest ever. There is trouble brewing all over the shop.
Brown set for election wipeout. Who will put him out of his misery.
Hawaii Lawmakers Pass Bill to Create 'Islam Day'. WTF!!!
Sikh policemen to get bulletproof turbans so they can join firearms units. (H/T Camaron)

All things to all men (and women and vicars)
and finally...
Secretary accidentally bites off boss’ penis. (H/T Filippo)
LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT.......from Rico
Not only is NO ONE listening, but NO ONE in Team Obama cares one bit. Anyone who has not quaffed deeply from the Communist (D) kool aid is obviously (a) a limbic-brained racist neanderthal and not worthy of any respect or consideration, (b) incandescently stoopid and not at all "cool and "progressive", (c) real pathetic losers like those fellows in 1776, and (d) completely lacking that radical chic factor shared by all the smugly superior intellects like Nancy Reid, Harry Pelosi, Bawney Fag...and YES the ObaMarx hisself, our great Fearless Leader and first comrade in the land. (The Chairman, mein ObaMeinFuhrer, etc also suggest themselves as appropriate titles...but I'm sure Fidel, Chavez, Putin, and a slew of other liberators of the downtrodden masses of 'oppressed' can provide any number of touchie-feelie great sounding titles to the pResident who hates his country so very much he is intentionlly destroying it!!!).
THAT IS RIGHT. DESTROYING. INTENTIONALLY. THAT IS THE REAL PLAN. America is so 'mean' [thank you Lady Michele MacBeth ObaMarx for that pithy zinger] and deeply flawed it mustMUSTmust be torn down from within and a new 'paradise for the proletariat' constructed!!!!!
Mr. Obama:
I have had it with you and your administration, sir. Your conduct on your recent trip overseas has convinced me that you are not an adequate representative of the United States of America collectively or of me personally.
You are so obsessed with appeasing the Europeans and the Muslim world that you have abdicated the responsibilities of the President of the United States of America . You are responsible to the citizens of the United States . You are not responsible to the peoples of any other country on earth.
I personally resent that you go around the world apologizing for the United States telling Europeans that we are arrogant and do not care about their status in the world. Sir, what do you think the First World War and the Second World War were all about if not the consideration of the peoples of Europe? Are you brain dead? What do you think the Marshall Plan was all about? Do you not understand or know the history of the 20th century?
Where do you get off telling a Muslim country that the United States does not consider itself a Christian country? Have you not read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States ? This country was founded on Judeo-Christian ethics and the principles governing this country, at least until you came along, come directly from this heritage. Do you not understand this?
Your bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia is an affront to all Americans. Our President does not bow down to anyone, let alone the king of Saudi Arabia . You dont show Great Britain , our best and one of our oldest allies, the respect they deserve yet you bow down to the king of Saudi Arabia . How dare you, sir! How dare you!
You can't find the time to visit the graves of our greatest generation because you don't want to offend the Germans but make time to visit a mosque in Turkey . You offended our dead and every veteran when you give the Germans more respect than the people who saved the German people from themselves. What's the matter with you?
I am convinced that you and the members of your administration have the historical and intellectual depth of a mud puddle and should be ashamed of yourselves, all of you.
You are so self-righteously offended by the big bankers and the American automobile manufacturers yet do nothing about the real thieves in this situation, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Frank, Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelic, the Fannie Mae bonuses, and the Freddie Mac bonuses. What do you intend to do about them? Anything? I seriously doubt it.
What about the U.S. House members passing out $9.1 million in bonuses to their staff members on top of the $2.5 million in automatic pay raises that lawmakers gave themselves? I understand the average House aide got a 17% bonus. I took a 5% cut in my pay to save jobs with my employer. You haven't said anything about that. Who authorized that? I surely didn't!
Executives at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be receiving $210 million in bonuses over an eighteen-month period, that's $45 million more than the AIG bonuses. In fact, Fannie and Freddie executives have already been awarded $51 million; not a bad take. Who authorized that and why haven't you expressed your outrage at this group who are largely responsible for the economic mess we have right now.
I resent that you take me and my fellow citizens as brain-dead and not caring about what you idiots do. We are watching what you are doing and we are getting increasingly fed up with all of you. I also want you to know that I personally find just about everything you do and say to be offensive to every one of my sensibilities. I promise you that I will work tirelessly to see that you do not get a chance to spend two terms destroying my beautiful country.
Sincerely,
Every real American

Ten Rules for Dating My Daughter....
Rule One: If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.
Rule Two: You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.
Rule Three: I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose his compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.
Rule Four: I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilising a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.
Rule Five: It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early."
Rule Six: I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you cry.
Rule Seven: As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?
Rule Eight: The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka - zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which features chain saws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.
Rule Nine: Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged, dim-witted has-been. But on issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.
Rule Ten: Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming in over a rice paddy near Hanoi. When my Agent Orange starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine.
