PETA recently announced that Pamela Anderson, former lifeguard and lifelong flotation device, would become its spokesperson for poultry rights, marking the first time that Anderson will find herself concerned with real breasts.
The Roman Catholic Church continued this week to defame gays and lesbians, unabated by its own prevalent sense of guilt. The Church denounced homosexual coupledom as “evil” and equated the raising of children by gay and lesbian couples as a “violent” act.

Bush with this week, his mom, Barbs, beat us to the punch by publicly stating that the democratic presidential hopefuls will be stiff competition for her son in the next election year.
