British Convicts Live Better on the Inside

A few people actually benefit from moonbattery. For example, as a consequence of liberalism gone wild, British convicts live better in prison than on the outside.

Wesley Crawford was sentenced to 12 years for robbery. After escaping from Sudbury "open prison" in Derbyshire, he came back and pleaded to be let back in, so he could continue to enjoy unlocked doors, a TV, a wide choice of food, a gym, snooker and ping-pong facilities, etc.

According to a Sudbury prison source:

He basically said that it was much more cushy being inside prison than it was on the outside. And he still believes that — even though he has now been sent to a closed prison.

No wonder the number of prisoners absconding is at its lowest level in 10 years, even as the prison population increases.

On a tip from Oiao.

OT

TIME magazine continues its relentless, ongoing effort to destroy, or at least damage, McCain before the race even really gets going. Here's some issue-free pure personal destruction.

Years after McCain's surgery to remove skin cancer and lymph nodes, his left cheek still bears a visible seam.

That caption is right next to a really gross close-up photo of his face.

If we vote for Obama, we won't have to worry about the old man's lymph nodes, of course. It would be so much easier to just vote Obama.

Mega, I agree. I say vote for the black dude. He still has a few years left, and unlike McCain, you will not be labeled a liberal racist if you don't.

VOTE OBAMA 08! VIVA OBAMA!!

nom- I challenge you to define "liberal racist". I say Obambi himself is a liberal racist, but I'm sure thats not what you meant. So define it genius. Everyone else can see me destroy nom's preposterous claims while the dumbass offered nothing but childish insults in response:

Whatever a "liberal racist" is, my guess is it defines around 60 % of the American population.

Look on the bright side... it could be worse. If he was in the California penal system, he could now be living in comfort AND marry his cell mate:

I would say that the definition of "Liberal racist" is: "Redundancy".

OT -

Least we not forget the School Children Killed By an Undocumented Immigrant = ILLEGAL ALIEN

Note the latest leftist MSM press release does not even mention that she is an ILLEGIAL ALIEN -
http://www.startribune.com/local/18972879.html?location_refer=Local%20+%20Metro

At least a previous article admits that she is Undocumented.

This is a woman who needs to spend the next 40 years in a USA prision, and then get deported to south of the boarder, when she is in her sixties....

someone who believes the melanin content of a person's skin is a key qualification for the Presidency of the United States, as well as a basis for making hiring decisions and university admissions: not a racist.

person who believes melanin is irrelevant and should not be the basis of anything, including and especially the qualifications for a high political office: racist Republican.

I think more and more people are wising up to these shaming tactics from the chattering classes. They are so desperate to get their prophet - oops, candidate - in office that all they have left is to try to get the little people to believe that they need to vote for him to show how enlightened and smart they are. This is Marcuse's repressive tolerance at work!

Society has come full circle in two generations and it has becoming cutting edge and counter culture to stand up for traditional, Christian or Conservative values now.|

Life copies art. This was the premise of a Charlie Chaplin film set in the Depression, where he tries to get jailed where life is cushier than the outside.

Sooooo......gay marriage in CA. I'd post a link, but there's about 50,000 of them around for the picking.

This has to be the peak of moonbattery. Maybe the good news is that peaks are followed by declines.

This isn't determined yet, but after Captain America getting offed, it may very well turn out that Superman votes Blue...

So much for truth, justice and the American way...

Posted by: Archonix at May 16, 2008 1:47 AM

What, they are going to destroy Captain America? That is one heck of a motorcycle....Just kidding.

The sad part screams of MoonBat Liberals who make decisions in corporations....like killing off an icon of strength of the USA.
