Beirut (Rhoiders)

In this exclusive photo captured by Rhoiders, the smoke is already rising as chaos grips Beirut after Ms. Sheehan’s encounter with Mr. Godzilla.

According to Green Helmet Guy, Ms. Sheehan and Mr. Godzilla were exchanging heated words, when she just, up and head butted him.

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan quickly announced that it was all the fault of the Israelis. “This is yet another part of a larger pattern of violations of international law in the war between Israel and the innocent besieged Hezbollah,” U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said in a report Monday.

In a released statement, Ms. Sheehan’s publicist, The New York Times edition of Al Jazeera, quoted Ms. Sheehan to say, “A klog iz mir! A feier zol im trefen. I just thought he was that lying bastard, President George W. Bush and I wanted to exchange pleasantries. You get that maniac out here to talk with me in person.You get America out of Iraq and Israel out of Palestine and you'll stop the terrorism.”

Mr. Godzilla was overheard to moan, “Get this mashugga manzer away from me.”

In a related matter, Ms. Sheehan would neither confirm nor deny that she is dating Mel Gibson, “although I admire his intellect and progressive ideas about living with diverse cultures. He is indeed my hero, anyone who can stick their foot in their mouth as well as he does has my respect.”

PS: Please be aware that the base of the photo was developed by Little Green Footballs: “Doctored Beirut Photo: the First Draft.”

I was first inspired by the Pillage Idiot. See this great web site here.

Then, as I was grazing the LGF site, I stumbled across the LGF post about Cindy Sheehan’s latest utter nonsense, “Cindy Sheehan, Propagandist’s Friend.” In the comment section, “bluegrass boy” – comment number 21 said: “woulnt it be cool if some one would photo shop her!?!......she is one grizzly image to come out of this war...”

Well, that was all the inspiration that I needed – I simply could not help myself.

Thank you Little Green Footballs and “bluegrass boy”… And oh, I tried to leave LGF a heads-up, but the site's registration is closed at the moment…

Reuters Photoshop altered photos of Beirut

August 7^th, 2006

So many folks have covered the Reuters Photoshop mess so well, that I have just hung back. I was also on deadline for my regular Westminster Eagle and Tentacle columns. (This Wednesday’s Tentacle column will be on Senator Joe Lieberman versus the lemmings.)

I wasn’t going to do anything with it until I was grazing the Pillage Idiot’s web site and spit out my Dr. Pepper laughing at his Photoshop version of the Beirut-Reuters photo mess. It is not to be missed. Go there now.

Little Green Footballs also has done a great job.

A Hat Tip goes to Michelle Malkin, who first called it to my attention…

Once again, the blogosphere comes through. The coverage of the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict has been so biased against Israel; there are sure to be many more inconsistencies to be discovered as the MSM has been beside itself in a race of who can bash the Israelis the best – or the quickest...

O’Malley rapped for ‘neglecting’ Baltimore

By S.A. Miller
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

August 7, 2006

BALTIMORE — Mayor Martin O’Malley is being criticized by residents, community activists and officials who say he is neglecting the city in his quest for the Democratic nomination for governor. Critics say Mr. O’Malley has failed to address accusations of illegal police arrests, has disregarded historic preservation and is ready to quit as mayor without fulfilling promises to reduce crime and improve schools.
