While You Were Sleeping: Watch Karl Rove Fight Off A Bunch of Hippies

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Richard Branson and his kids set off from New York at 2 a.m. in an attempt to break the transatlantic speed record by arriving in England in under six days.

What is up with these cop impersonators lately? First, there was the fake cop who pulled over a guy who turned out to be his neighbor, who called the real police on him. Now, in our hometown of Hartford, Connecticut, a couple of phonies pulled over-- you called it-- an actual cop.

A decision was reached in the Britney Spears driving trial...

A mistrial was declared Tuesday in Britney Spears’s misdemeanor trial for driving without a license. The jury was deadlocked 10-2 in favor of the singer’s innocence, the foreman said in open court. “The jury is hopelessly deadlocked, and I declare this a mistrial,” stated Judge James A. Steele. The jury had deliberated for three days... [CelebSpin]

Wait, how the hell could someone actually be innocent of driving without a license? The record shows she didn't have a license, everyone admits she was driving during the time she didn't have a license, and then she goes to trial for it. Someone needs to explain this justice system of ours...

Check out this bizarre incident in which a nutjob hippie lady from San Francisco fails in an attempt to arrest Karl Rove for treason. 

Meanwhile, Tina Fey says the trick to playing GOP favorite Sarah Palin is that she glues her ears down. Fey's own, that is...

Why "nutjob"?  Looked like political theater to me, though perhaps not absurd enough for Bay Area standards, and a tad inept.  And Rover looks to shit his pants, Mitchell too--stare straight ahead, boys, pretend that philosophy has no consequences.  But Rove is surely a criminal--Geneva Convention for starters, though Addington and Gonzales should get pinched first.  Will Obama uphold our commitment to the Geneva Convention and hand over to justice those who have broken international law, as our treaty commitment says we must?  Don't hold your breath, cupcakes.
