Gays Caused The NZ Earthquake

From the website Christchurch Earthquake:
"To the hundreds of thousands of people who suffered because of the Christchurch earthquake: Ask yourselves: 'Was the profit from meals, accomodation and transport from 900 poofters and lesbians attending 'Gay Ski Week' worth the $4 billion damage, worth the homes destroyed? Was it worth going to sleep night after night not knowing if the roof will come down on you by morning?" Chris Carter and Helen Clark's government got what they wanted -- 12 year olds on the streets as prostitutes, overseas trips, expensive liquor and credit card junkets, lesbians running loose on the South Island as if they own the place. But, looking at your ruined homes, at all the historic buildings destroyed, ask yourselves, 'Did we get what we wanted in all this destruction?'"
What with Poe's Law and Christwire, it's no longer possible to tell if these people are serious.

Lying Liars At Fox News Reverse Gallup Poll Result On Collective Bargaining

Media Matters quotes the actual poll:
Americans strongly oppose laws taking away the collective bargaining power of public employee unions, according to a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll. The poll found 61% would oppose a law in their state similar to such a proposal in Wisconsin, compared with 33% who would favor such a law. Republican Gov. Scott Walker and Republican legislators in Wisconsin have proposed cutting union rights for most state government workers and making them pay more for benefits. Ohio, New Jersey, Indiana, Iowa and other states with Republican governors are considering similar laws.
Don't expect Fox to issue a retraction.

UPDATE: Media Matters has updated their above-linked post to note that Fox DID retract the above graphic. I'm shocked, truly.

She Wants To Break Free

On the BBC's Let's Dance For Comic Relief, controversial former model and author Katie Price dressed as Freddie Mercury in a recreation of Queen's classic 1984 drag video for I Want To Break Free. Those are her real actual boobies, by the way.
