"Eeh, I don’t know what the kids these days have to complain about: I was in the WARF when I was only 17. Months that is. Not years. And all we had to eat was that nice Enoch Powell. Lovely he was, slow roasted over a kipper with a banana if you could find one. I never liked the Germans either but they knew what to do with the Jews. At least later anyway. We used to play a game in the neighbors. I don’t remember much of it, but you’d knock the door as we was too poor to have bells back then, but we loved them times. Anyway if a Jew or Paki or Negro answered you’d piss on them. But they took it in the spirit it was offered. Not that Susie from the Tempeltone street though: she never could control her front and back doors. Blimey what a mess. Her Dad should have crushed her windpipe when she was borned. That’s how we did things back then. Abortion was just for the la-de-dazs. I throttled me own brother with his umbilical ‘cause he turned out left foot first. Saved us all a lot of bother. I never liked it up me arse though, not even in the blitz. Sometimes I’d shove a fistful of gravy browning up me so the Yanks wouldn’t know they’d missed the target. We was poor, but happy then. Not like today. Peas go right through me now. I’m perched on the porcelain edge for hours. Sometimes days if it’s a Wednesday.”

If you can imagine a newspaper with all the worst stances of FOX News but with none of the subtlety—you’ve found your news rag!

Enough Slate for today I think.

So sad to see them go and all…

Seriously? I mean? Come on…

What about First Amendment rights here? After all, porn stars are about the least likely people to have STD’s (I hear), and since condoms do look icky on screen it’s probable that some you’d get by with rubbing one out will now go looking for the “real thing” and in turn get infected. Silly, silly people.

Whoops, forgot the URL for a moment there.

Is there anything the White House / President can do that won’t be treated as a major scandal by the haters?
