Counterdemos at the June 16 racist fest: Multiply this by about 300, make it meaner than a junkyard dog, and it’d be just about right to battle assholes like… …Buffalo Dick. For the moment, the retard rednecks have won. A vocal, vile, and sometimes violent minority of American citizens –…
BFF? J.T. Ready and Russell Pearce arm-in-arm, from the white nationalist White Knights of America Web site. The degree to which vile extremist organizations and individuals are welcomed into the fold of Arizona’s anti-immigration movement never ceases to amaze me. In other states, sharing a stage with a white supremacist…
Sheriff Nickel Bag Joe Arpaio’s a regular investigatin’ fool these days, pokin’ his bulbous, veiny snout into light rail, Maricopa County community colleges, Attorney General Terry Goddard’s bidness, and now, Phoenix city government’s travel reimbursements. At the beginning of this month, the Sheriff put in a public records request to…
Sending out an SOS…? Everyone knows Phoenix is a sucky town for graffiti. It shouldn’t be that way, but it is. Not to say there aren’t some really talented writers, taggers, piecers and straight-up artists out there. The Mac comes to mind on the mural/street-art tip, though I think he…
AZ’s anti-immigrant Erma Bombeck… Maybe the AZ Repugnant’s soccer-momish columnist Laurie Roberts isn’t a Hispanic-hatin’ hausfrau, but she sure sounds like one sometimes. Take Lame-o Laurie’s latest screed, her June 23rd opinion piece titled “Another victim of uncontrolled border,” in which she blames a death by DUI on the lack…
Hartley (right) and I at Saturday’s prejudice party, pic from Arizona.indymedia.org . A few tidbits more about last Saturday’s bigot bash at the AZ Capitol. At the very end, I got into what you might call a spirited discussion with the master of ceremonies, this dood Todd “Twinkle Toes” Hartley,…
Golly-Pete does this daffy dodo love those old, black-and-white Three Stooges shorts, ‘specially the ones with the classic lineup of Larry Fine, Moe Howard, and Moe’s bro Curly Howard. Many a Saturday morn of this yardbird’s youth was spent yukkin’ it up at the screwball antics of those comedic dumbasses,…
Yuk it up: Our clown of a constable just cost us another $2 mil. Hear the giant sucking sound? That’s another $2 million being drained from Maricopa County’s tax coffers on behalf of those who’ve perished in Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s gulags. Today the MC Board of Supervisors finally released details…
Bosom bigot buddies: J.T. Ready (in suit) and Rep. Russell Pearce (in flag shirt) work the crowd together. Like you needed more proof that AZ’s nativist movement is riddled with racists, rednecks, and raving wing-nuts, the anti-immigrant protest at the state capitol this Saturday (6/16) featured a rabble-rousing speech by…
Come on baby, light my fire: Burlesque Baroness Pyra Sutra at burn nightclub. See more babeage on parade in this Scandalesque slideshow. Starry, starry night. Not the sappy Don McLean tune of yore. Starry night’s what they call the shots I’ve been pounding at downtown’s new burn nightclub: a mix…
Chill out people, it’s just water. Um, at least it looked like water… I hate to say I told you so. Actually, who am I kiddin’? I LOVE telling you I told you so. On May 31, The Bird squawked about an insane new law Governor Janet “Manet” Napolitano signed…
Goddard standing tall: If he ever investigates Candy and/or Sheriff Joe, I may go gay for him! In a startling development that’s the AZ state government equivalent of standing up to the schoolyard bully, Attorney General Terry Goddard has told Sheriff Joe to go eff himself, informing asshole Arpaio that…
Don’t tell me Pooh’s a troofer too! Nah, he’s too smart for that. (Believe it or not, this tin-foil hat’s for sale at eCrater.com.) Should 9/11 troofer and tin-foil hatter Matt Lepacek have been booted from a post-debate Spin Room at the Republican debate Tuesday, June 5 in Goffstown, N.H.?…
Christ, Joe, put your tongue back in your mouth… If you have to think about your answer to the question above, you haven’t been in Maricopa County for very long. Still even if you’re a newbie, watching dirty ol’ Joe salivating before cameras over the Paris Hilton controversy taking place…
Sly Sy, raggin’ on Neocons, editors, and the Iraq War. Nothing’s more boring than a conference room full of “serious” journalists. Unless Seymour Hersh is in it. The legendary investigative reporter, who nabbed a Pulitzer back in 1970 for exposing the My Lai massacre in Vietnam and who’s still breaking…
“So Phil’s hiding where?” Maupin presents Goober’s chief of staff Deb Gullett with paperwork to help hizzoner switch parties… With a handful of supporters waving signs that read “Phil Gordon: Republican wolf in Democratic clothing,” and “Mayor Gordon is a Democrat in Name Only,” candidate Jarret Maupin stormed the Mayor’s…
The Bird, a racist? That’s the accusation leveled by a cowardly campaign of avian-haters, featuring form letters denouncing this funky feathered fiend being sent to some New Times advertisers. The malignant missives are addressed “Dear Business Owner” and sound like some nasty little chain-mail scheme from back in the day…
DJ Blonde Noize tearin’ up the decks as I get wasted on GINORMOUS DOLLAR WELLS! If you’re wondering why the blog posts are kinda light right around now, that’s because the Feathered Bastard is hard at work, tap-tapping out Best of Phoenix entries for the highly-anticipated issue of the same…
Guess which one is the bottom… Why any Democrat in his or her right mind would vote for a Democrat in Name Only (DiNO) such as Phil “Goober” Gordon is beyond me. It’s bad enough that he endorsed asshole wingnut Andy “Candy” Thomas for County Attorney in 2004, and that…
Me with the mega-fine Brea Lynn on my shoulder… At the invite of the party people at Marquee Entertainment**, I stopped by E4 in Scottsdale Saturday night to wish Vivid contract star and former Chandler girl Brea Lynn a happy 21st b-day. Lynn moved from Cali to Chandler when she…
Cheesy Fred Thompson goofs big-time with radio ads for LifeLock. Is Fred Thompson smokin’ crack? On the same day the Law and Order star and former Senator is incorporating his presidential committee in Nashville, Tenn., we learn that he’s also shilling for scumbag Robert Maynard, founder of the identity theft…
A pic from Nat’l Geographic of the MCDC fence on a ranch in Naco, Arizona, now the subject of a lawsuit. More troubles for Minuteman Civil Defense Corps Prez Chris Simcox, aka “The Little Prince,” who just recently had to put down a “palace coup” (his words) instigated by Minuteman…
