With the state of the world these days, and given the fact that Iran’s first nuclear power reactor at Bushehr is set to launch August 21st, the last thing anyone needs is a fear-mongering, loud-mouth, walrus-puss douchebag opening his yap. Enter John Bolton, who told the Fox Business Network

…if Israel is going to do anything against Bushehr it has to move in the next eight days.”

Oh, great. Not that the Israelis need any encouragement, but should anybody really be trying to goad them into an attack that’s likely to, at best, not do much good, and at worst, well, I’d just as soon not think about the worst case scenario.

Dr. Laura Schlessinger (is it typical for people with a PhD in physiology to be referred to as “doctor”?) told Larry King that she’s ending her radio show when her contract ends later this year. Is it because, in light of recent events, she’s realized that konservative talk radio consists of nothing but hate-filled blowhards who are polarizing this country, making serious discussion impossible while all but eliminating any possibility of solving any of the myriad of problems the country currently faces? Nah. It’s ‘cuz she wants to be able to call a n*gger a n*gger without catching shit for it.

“The reason is I want to regain my First Amendment rights. I want to be able to say what’s on my mind and in my heart and what I think is helpful and useful without somebody getting angry, some special interest group deciding this is the time to silence a voice of dissent and attack affiliates, attack sponsors. I’m sort of done with that.”

Oh well, looks like it’s time to go away now.
