Now, folks...I'm linking you to a FoxNews story. So don't pay attention to the subtext, or you might go blind. Just read the 'facts'.
Long story short, the anti-war organization Code Pink, which consists mainly of mothers of former soldiers, killed soldiers, or people who might one day be soldiers, has been protesting every day since September during operating hours in front of Berkley, CA's Marine Corps Recruitment center.
Most recently they have had a Harry Potter themed protest by telling participants to wear pointy hats and chant Wiccan spells to end the war and gather more supporters.
Does anyone else long for the days of the march on Washington? Bob Dylan and Joan Baez sang a duet of "Chimes of Freedom". Martin Luther King, Jr. stood in front of half a million people and gave the world, "I Have A Dream".
And now, all we have left is hippies and mothers wearing Pink t-shirts, shouting over each other and casting magic spells. I want the war to be over...but these poor misguided Yentas are part of the problem and should all be arrested for obscenity and manslaughter, because all they're really doing is grossing me out and getting more soldiers killed by making the anti-war movement look foolish.
Well done, Code Pink. Well done. Hope you sleep well knowing you've instilled a retroactive regret that women's suffrage ever took place.

Welcome Back Hardon! How I've Missed You Little (read: big) Fella
The recent bane of my penis's existence looked like a Grandmother. No, not my Grandmother! I would have already cut my head off. The Grandmother in question is Dr. Sue Johansen who hosted "Sex Talk" on Oxygen.
Her show of six years is coming to an end. Now I know all your uber-hipsters out there will be devastated. No more late nights watching her show, being repulsed and keeping your trap shut because 'everyone is entitled to a sexuality'.
And yes, I agree, sex is a wondrous thing. But when one of the people in question is a blue haired old spinster palming a huge vibrantly pink rubber cast phallus and explaining just where the taint is, I would prefer that we all had to wear Burkas.
Anyway, here's to you, creepy old Sex-Talk lady. I hope the show whacked up the sex toys with you and you'll have something to do in your free time. Heaven knows you will have no problem locating that darn little lady in the canoe.
Fellas...it's once again safe to whack away!

"Because The World Is Round, It Turns Me On..."
Anyone ever hear of Myanmar? Do you know where it is? Can you find it on a globe? Did you know that a possible 100,000 people may have died and 95% of the country's infrastructure may have been completely demolished this weekend?
So when you're on your way to your Pilate's class in your H3, maybe only smoke one joint today...In Memoriam.
Read the full grizzly details here. Awful stuff.

Pundits Declare The Dem Primary Race Over!
It's not like they've ever been wrong before. I mean...come on!
Read someone else's coverage here...I can't stomach this anymore.
NOTE: Above is the first hit given in a Google image search of 'pundit'. Not exactly what I wanted, but whatever...who doesn't like a little Lohan side-boob?

Everyone's Out To Get You, Motherfucker!
Much to my chagrin and surprise, these chowder-heads are still at it. What do they hope to accomplish, really? Let's say for argument's sake there was a conspiracy and we were to unearth those involved in the U.S. government. How do we know they aren't plants to take the fall?
Patsies perhaps? These people have to be in on the Kennedy assassinations too, right? And MLK? And Area 51 while we're at it?
Conspiracies are conspiracies because they're put into action by really smart people who carry out orders based on the most efficient and cost effective means of executing the ultimate goal while conserving loss and maximizing results...
DOES THAT SOUND LIKE THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT TO YOU?
This is an official Kilroy "Fuck 9/11 Truth" Wednesday. Let's make it a usual thing.

Kids Are So Mature These Days...
After all, it's never too early to get your soul crushed in politics.
Thanks to Sass for the scoop. Although I think she's trying to pop my big blue-bouncy-ball.

Did You Know?
That most of America's children are usually too stoned to play Frisbee? Alright, not most...but six times more than in Great Britain.
It's cool though, they are taking prescribed drugs, so the Pharmaceutical industry, and therefore, politicians are getting their cut and trickling the wealth onto we schmucks like a steady stream of urine.
Find our what the hell I'm talking about here.

Answer To Pastor Hagee and Reverend Wright Quagmire: Oh Yeah, I Gave It A Think...
I know this is late news, but the furor that we all knew was going to rain down like so much glorious burning sulfur finally broke in the past few weeks with regards to what aspect of Barrack Obama's past and present were going to be distasteful, unappealing and downright crazy.
That cloud of burning city-water smelling rock came in the shape of a bombastic, racist black Reverend by the name of Jeremiah Wright. Obama has been taken to task over the last few weeks for his association with a man who, amongst other things, thinks that the U.S. government manufactured the AIDS virus to eliminate the black population.
Now, I don't even know where to begin to with that one...wait, yes I do! Um, hey, fucktard! Remember how the AIDS epidemic began with upper class white homosexuals in New York during the disco era? What was that? A control group?
Anyway, now the seed has been planted that because Obama would have supported such a controversial religious figurehead for so long he is obviously not fit to be the President.
A couple of things right off the bat:
Which leads me to the point: Politicians always have crazy religious figures in their corners. Nixon had Billy Graham, who can be heard on the greatest hits of the Nixon tapes talking about how much he hates Jews. Always has been, always will be.
Unless we grow up and fix the problem once and for all. Ready friends?
Make it illegal for Religious figures and organizations to support or contribute to politicians during their campaigns, or tax the ever-loving shit out of them for the right to participate in government, just like everyone else.
This is really a non-issue when it comes down to it. But since it has been made an issue, let's do the responsible thing: stop the free ride for religious corporations in this country, or severely curtail the amount of power and influence they are aloud to wield.
And I know what you're thinking. That is not unconstitutional. It is the most constitutional move possible. Let's make a separation of church and state feel like a separation of church and state for once in the history of this country.
You can shout until you're blue in the face that we were formed a Christian nation. But if you really want to stand on ceremony, let's all buy slaves and fuck them, like our greatest national mind and drafter of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson.
Oh, and if you think this is just an issue for the Dems this election cycle, check out this man, who McCain went after like a lonely schoolgirl at the prom. This is a national problem...and by that I of course mean both parties.

A couple of things right off the bat:
- Wright is a spiritual leader, makes his money through religion, believes in God and the Devil. All of these things make him seem slightly crazy and suspect to me without any of the conspiracy theories.
- Wright's notariaty and truly outspokenly racist comments came after Obama had begun to distance himself. Smell like payback to anyone else?
- Bush takes advice from Pat Robertson. PAT ROBERTSON! Bush takes advice from Pat Robertson! Pat 'scum of the earth' Robertson...Everybody awake?

We've Got A New Purpose (and by 'we' I mean 'me')
Hello there, friends. Welcome back, once again, to Kilroy Got Pigeonholed, your one stop outlet for all things rant related. I'm going to be expanding the site to included more than just politics (but no celebrity gossip, I fucking swear!).
But I will be adding random thoughts, essays, articles revolving around all aspects of this American life. Please feel free to add your comments, questions, hate mail to any of the things I say on this site.
Because while it is true that I've only ever been wrong once (read: getting super excited about the release of Spider Man 3) I may, in fact, be wrong on this site from time to time. And oh man, what would I do without you three or four readers to set me straight?
Welcome, welcome, welcome!
