a public service announcement

April 22nd, 2011 · 3 Comments · rants

Linda Myer, the self-proclaimed head of the Wythe County Tea Baggers, is a frequent commenter on Wythe Notes. Whereas I’m sure Ms.Meyers and I don’t agree politically, I do admire her tenacity.

October 5th, 2010 · No Comments · rants

Warning: This post contains language that may be offensive to some people. (Sorry, Aunt Hilda. You’d best skip this one.) Our Neo-Nazi Attorney General is still at it. Even though an Albemarle County judge ruled last August that the far rightwing asshole failed to make his case, and there was NO reason to suspect former [...]

March 14th, 2010 · 1 Comment · rants

Common sense is a quality that is rapidly disappearing in this country thanks in due part to political correctness, government regulation, sleazy politics, religious zealotry, litigation, and just plain stupidity. Sorry to break it to you Sarah Palin, but your child is RETARDED! According to the 2002 edition of the Merriam-Webster Medical Dictionary, the word [...]
