Kanye West.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B


Exhibit C: His book, "Thank You and You're Welcome". It's an exercise in douchery that hasn't been at this level in years.

Unrepentant on Facebook? Expect jail time

PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) – Two weeks after Joshua Lipton was charged in a drunken driving crash that seriously injured a woman, the 20-year-old college junior attended a Halloween party dressed as a prisoner. Pictures from the party showed him in a black-and-white striped shirt and an orange jumpsuit labeled "Jail Bird."

In the age of the Internet, it might not be hard to guess what happened to those pictures: Someone posted them on the social networking site Facebook. And that offered remarkable evidence for Jay Sullivan, the prosecutor handling Lipton's drunken-driving case.

Sullivan used the pictures to paint Lipton as an unrepentant partier who lived it up while his victim recovered in the hospital. A judge agreed, calling the pictures depraved when sentencing Lipton to two years in prison.

I love this quote from the guy that is erecting these ridiculous billboards:

"I believe 9/11 could have been prevented if we'd had a Republican president at the time," Meehan said Wednesday on CNN's "American Morning."

this is the exact quote that SIR HC pointed out yesterday in the quote of the year thread. in typical wing nut revisionist history it's actually Clinton's fault that tragic event took place place and Bush gets a pass because he was only in office nine months at the time.

No pass for this debacle. In fact, if I had some money to burn I'd take the second row of images and slap it up on a billboard near the other one. Doesn't even need type to go with it.

I have no idea why this picture makes me laugh.

I think he was trying to say if we had a republican who wasn't a total fucking moron.

without making any kind of political statement, isn't it common knowledge that our administration was asleep at the wheel in September of 2001, with the executive famously having taken off the entire month of August, ignoring or being oblivious to documented threats from al queda, and easing back into the rigours of office by reading to schoolchildren?? Isn't it known that the administration asserted no leadership despite having relevant intelligence?? isn't this understood by the public just like the fact that the Giants won the Super Bowl and the sun sets in the West??

i would watch what you say in this country partner. those are conspiracy nut job words, that mean you don't support the war, the troops or america. we haven't been attacked since 9/11; don't you know that? that's george bush. we kill them there sand fleas. that's george bush. we lie and get away with murder because the revolution of the sixties will never happen in this society . . . until the draft is reinstated when iranian shit hits the fan, and then we will see who is so patriotic.

and i love the fact that not one of the articles about the recent killing of teenagers in dc asks the simple question: what in the fuck are 13 year olds doing out wandering the streets of the death capital of america at two in the morning? you know, if a 13 year old goes into a lion's den at the zoo and get mauled and killed, it's a horrible tragedy of magnitude that beckons questions of how and why and what can be done to stop it . . . but on the street it is just another chance for a write up of no names given.
