Yet another urgent memo from the Dept. of STFU... "Let's be blunt here: the only way to stop them is to destroy the Iranian regime, the mullahs, and that can only be accomplished through war. And by war I don't mean ground troops; I mean massive bombing raids intended to destroy every one of the key targets."
- Rush Limbaugh, dictating U.S. military strategy to the unwashed, tea-bagging masses. Is it just me, or is this knuckle-dragging cretin going to extraordinary lengths to remain even remotely relevant these days?

The shithead who illegally cut down a 7-foot conifer in the Washington Park Arboretum in Seattle got himself a lot more than a typical Christmas tree...  It was a rare, imperiled Keteleeria evelyniana from China, and it may be impossible to replace. University of Washington Botanical Gardens manager Randall Hitchin told The Seattle Times that he nurtured the tree since it arrived as a seedling from mountainous Yunnan province in 1998: "A Keteleeria is something that even most arborists have never heard of," Hitchin said. "Or if they have, it's just a reference in a book. To have a specimen in the flesh is just a tremendous thing... it makes me want to cry."
Replacing the tree will be costly. It may not even be possible to find a genetically equivalent specimen. "I don't even know if the site where this tree was collected is now under a hotel or something," Hitchin said. This isn't the first time thieves have struck the park. Several years ago, an employee of a local restaurant made off with an unusual fir tree and set it up in his workplace, said David Zuckerman, horticulturist for the UW Botanic Gardens. When the eatery's manager realized the tree was stolen, he turned the worker in. The university manages the 230-acre Arboretum as a collection of 20,000 trees, shrubs and plants used in classes and educational programs. Officials have considered fencing or dousing at-risk trees with paint or foul-smelling animal urine in an attempt to prevent them from being sawed off for Christmas. "We always worry this time of year," Zuckerman said. "But there's not much we can do unless we put cages around everything." I have an idea, Mr. Zuckerman: How about a bunch of these?

Meet 25-year-old Joshua Linhares, who intentionally ran over and killed a mother duck walking her 12 ducklings across a Massachusetts mall parking lot...  Witnesses say Linhares deliberately drove at the ducks, turning sharply and speeding up. Surveillance video from nearby stores supported their account. Linhares testified he didn't see the ducks because he was distracted by a woman waving her arms at him. He says he left the scene because he panicked. However, his testimony was contradicted by witness statements: A woman who was at the intersection testified that Linhares sped directly at the ducks... as Linhares drove by after the incident, the woman said he smiled at her and sped through the parking lot... New Bedford District Court jurors took 15 minutes Tuesday to convict him of animal cruelty. Prosecutors requested jail time, but the judge imposed a sentence of one year's probation because Linhares didn't have a prior criminal record. Linhares' attorney plans to appeal. According to Dartmouth Animal Control, the mother mallard had been nesting for at least five years in a retention pond behind the Home Depot at the Dartmouth Town Center. The orphaned ducklings were temporarily adopted by a Westport family until they were released into the wild. P.S. I don't have a Facebook account, so I can't log in to see his profile, but there's a Joshua Linhares there. Wonder if it's the same dude.

Hat-tip John Amato... You'd think that rape would be one issue Republicans would be smart enough not make into a partisan issue, but no. They just can't help themselves. As you may recall Franken sponsored a successful defense bill amendment that withholds government contracts from companies that refused to let employees bring rape cases before the courts. Now, it should be tough voting against rape, but thirty Republicans did just that, and now they're pissing and moaning because of the backlash they're getting. And in their usual state of sheer idiocy, not only are they blaming Franken for the hammering, they're asking him to defend them (!). From Politico: The Republicans are steamed at Franken because partisans on the left are using a measure he sponsored to paint them as rapist sympathizers — and because Franken isn’t doing much to stop them.
“Trying to tap into the natural sympathy that we have for this victim of this rape —and use that as a justification to frankly misrepresent and embarrass his colleagues, I don’t think it’s a very constructive thing,” Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) said in an interview.“I think it’s going to make a lot of senators leery and start looking at things he’s doing earlier on, because I don’t think it got appropriate attention ahead of time.”
“I don’t know what his motivation was for taking us on, but I would hope that we won’t see a lot of Daily Kos-inspired amendments in the future coming from him,” said South Dakota's John Thune, No. 4 in the Senate Republican leadership. “I think hopefully he’ll settle down and do kind of the serious work of legislating that’s important to Minnesota.”
"I think it would be helpful for Sen. Franken to come forward and say, 'I’m not suggesting that anybody who (didn't) vote for my amendment is indifferent to crimes against women or anybody else'," said Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who also opposed the amendment.
Kit Bond (R-MO), said, “from what I know of” Franken, he “expected” such tactics.
“It was partisan — and he knew it,” said Tom Coburn (R-OK). “That’s exactly what I’d expect.” "Partisan," eh? Even though 10 GOP senators voted for it (including all the female ones). These assclowns should be embarrassed, but instead they're claiming they've been " mischaracterized." Really? Did they vote yes or no? That's the only question that should be debated. All the Republicans who voted against Franken's measure have a lot more to answer for. Bad PR is just the beginning. Tags: asshole, rape, republican scum

 'Bout time someone in the Democratic Party grew a pair... Former DNC Chair Howard Dean called on Senator Joe Lieberman to resign as chair of Senate Homeland Security Committee if he can't bring himself to oppose a Republican filibuster of health care reform legislation. Appearing on Joe Scarborough's radio show on Wednesday, Dean stressed that he had no problem with Lieberman opposing the bill on its philosophical merits, but he insisted that it was irresponsible and unprincipled to not allow the legislation to come to an up-or-down vote. "I think that (Lieberman) is a very complicated guy," said Dean. "He does because he says he's a principled guy but there's nothing principled about holding up a bill... If he was a principled guy he'd resign his chairmanship." "If you are with a caucus you don't owe the leader any vote on any substance," Dean added. "I have no problem with him voting against the public option... You owe it to Harry Reid to allow him to run the Senate. And if you're not willing to do that the proper thing to do is to step aside." Dean also urged the party to reconsider the use of reconciliation to pass aspects of reform. Such a parliamentary maneuver, he noted, would remove the "leverage" of the party's conservative members by allowing the bill an up-or-down vote. "[Lieberman has] announced he's gong to be 'stubborn' about this," said Dean, "and I think that means going to reconciliation. You can start it all over and that's going to take about six weeks, but there are a majority of senators who are not going to favor (a bill) without a public option." # # #If I ever run into Lieberman in person, I'll be mighty tempted to piss down his crooked little leg.

22-year-old Svajunas Beniukas, who posted a video of himself throwing a dog off a bridge, has been hunted down by outraged animal lovers on the Internet.  In the grainy video footage, Beniukas is seen standing on a bridge clutching the dog and bragging about how he will prove that "dogs can fly." Then, horrifyingly, he raises the dog over the railing and lets go, sending it hurtling to the pavement below where it can be heard crying in pain. Miraculously, the dog - named "Pipiras" ("Pepper" in English) - was rescued by a passerby and is being treated for multiple fractures and internal injuries from which he's expected to recover. The video clip quickly circulated in Lithuania where it was shot, causing outrage among viewers (who soon began a search reminiscent of the hunt for cat torturer Kenny Glenn). Working with the authorities, the online investigators determined that the dog was dropped from a bridge in the Vilkija district. Police then worked with users of a local website to identify Beniukas, who - on learning of the manhunt - turned himself in to police. As it turns out, Beniukas was already a suspect in a robbery that had been committed earlier. As for the motive, Pipiras had allegedly killed some of Beniukas's mother's chickens, so Beniukas stole the dog from its owners and took it to the bridge to exact his revenge. He's been charged with animal cruelty and faces a year in jail if convicted. Police later issued a statement thanking users of the website http://www.15min.lt/ for helping them identify the culprit. Thanks to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) dwaleberry for the link. Tags: animal abuse, asshole, crime, dogs, justice, loathsome people

Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty: Giving hunters — and human beings — a bad name... 
(Hat-tip Nick Baumann @ MoJo)"T-Paw" is taking a well-deserved drubbing from the outdoor community for not bothering to track down a wounded deer he shot on the opening day of Minnesota's firearm deer season. A headline on deerhuntingchat.com calls the possible '12 presidential contender a "slob hunter" for wounding a deer on Nov. 7th and then leaving for a Republican fundraiser in Iowa before the animal could be found. One contributor wrote: "What kind of slob hunter goes out opening morning and shoots a deer knowing full well you won't have time to retrieve it or tend to it? One whose presidential ambitions override his hunting ethics, that's what kind." After the governor shot the deer from more than 200 yards away (a long shot that would only be ethically taken by a well-seasoned hunter, which Pawlenty is not), he and his brother Dan went to the spot where they last saw the animal. Finding blood but no deer, they returned to base camp for breakfast and to consider their next move. Due in Iowa that night for a fundraiser, Pawlenty left, and there has been no sign of the animal since. As the Deer Hunting Guide says: "A responsible hunter, who is also an ethical hunter, will be prepared to spend hours trailing a wounded deer; even come back the next day if needed. You must make every effort to retrieve a wounded animal. It's the right ethical thing to do." P.S. WTF, T-Paw? Everyone knows that real hunters gun down wolves from helicopters. That, or they shoot their friends in the face pen-raised quail. Tags: asshole, hunting, loathsome people, tim pawlenty

Hey, Mittens - when you're finished pissing & moaning about the President "not protecting our troops" in Afghanistan, please drop me a line and let us know when even one of your five brave sons will be headed over there to join the battle. You know, just like you served your country when called...  Oh, wait. You didn't serve, either. You received a deferment from the draft as a Mormon "minister of religion" in France for two and a half years, then wriggled out nearly three more years of deferments for your "academic studies." I'd say Axelrod's got your number, asshole. By the way, where was your "outrage" when Bush, Cheney and your fellow Republican leaders all but abandoned the troops in Afghanistan to wage a phony war in Iraq, hm?

Not only is he the drug-running brother of Afghan president Hamid Karzai, you're paying his salary. • Say hello to your new military budget, which includes a broad expansion of hate-crimes legislation and scraps a host of overpriced weapons systems (including the ridiculous F-22 fighter). • It's no secret why lying scumbag Joe Lieberman is trying to kill the public option. Now we learn that Evan Bayh - another "blue dog" against the public option - has a little secret of his own (hint: he's married to it). • Congratulations to former Senator Edward Brooke for receiving the Congressional Gold Medal.

Looks like Captain Viagra ain't exactly ready for some football, is he? 
(Hat-tip Eugene Robinson)The Leader of the Republican Party's attempt to become part-owner of the St. Louis Rams ended this week when his fellow investors cut him from the squad. Rush got the bum’s rush shortly after Roger Goodell, the commissioner of the National Football League, hinted strongly that His Loudness was most unwelcome. Controversy had focused on Limbaugh’s history of incendiary and offensive remarks about race. Striking his patented tone of arrogant, bombastic victimhood, Limbaugh sought to portray his ownership bid as an urgent matter of great historical importance to the nation. “This is not about the NFL, it’s not about the St. Louis Rams, it’s not about me,” he bellowed on his show, hours before being sacked. “This is about the ongoing effort by the left in this country, wherever you find them, in the media, the Democrat Party, or wherever, to destroy conservatism, to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a conservative. Therefore, this is about the future of the United States of America and what kind of country we’re going to have.” No, it’s not. It’s about making a splash and getting attention. And it’s about the free market and individual rights — which I thought conservatives were supposed to worship. Limbaugh had every right to join the group of would-be buyers headed by sports mogul Dave Checketts, who already owns the St. Louis Blues hockey team. And, let’s be honest, Limbaugh would hardly have been the only archconservative to own a piece of a pro football team. Given the demographic profile of the average NFL franchise owner—white, male, middle-aged to elderly, richer than Croesus, egocentric—I doubt that many of Limbaugh’s political and social views would be out of place. I mean, it’s not as if he were trying to join the board of the ACLU. But Goodell had not just the right but the duty to consider the impact that such close association with Limbaugh would have on the league. The NFL hates controversy like the plague, because controversy — of the non-sporting kind — is bad for business. It’s one thing for fans to debate a questionable pass interference call; it’s quite another for sports-talk hosts and their callers to argue about whether the league endorses tendentious and stereotypical views about African-Americans. Whatever NFL owners might think about politics or race, they don’t broadcast their opinions nationwide every day the way Limbaugh does. Attention has focused mostly on Limbaugh’s contention in 2003 that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated and that he was being overhyped because “the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well.” This was stupid and wrong on every level—black quarterbacks had already excelled, with Doug Williams having led the Washington Redskins to a Super Bowl victory 15 years earlier; and McNabb was good enough to take the Eagles to the Super Bowl two years later. The statement offended enough people that it got Limbaugh fired from his short-lived job as an ESPN football analyst. But Limbaugh has made other ugly observations. He gave this overview of the preponderance of black players in the league: “The NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There I said it.” He has referred to basketball as “the favorite sport of gangs.” He has called President Barack Obama “the greatest living example of a reverse racist” and “an angry black guy” and—because of his biracial heritage—a “Halfrican-American.” An equal-opportunity offender, Limbaugh also has called Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor a “reverse racist,” compared illegal Latino immigrants to an “invasive species,” and referred to Native Americans as “Injuns.” Hey, we all know it’s all about the ratings. For Limbaugh, more outrageousness equals a bigger audience, and a bigger audience equals more money. But even the NFL isn't stupid enough to let a whoring clown like this in on their game, lest he poison it even more than it's already been poisoned over the last few years. In announcing that Limbaugh was no longer associated with his bid for the Rams, Checketts said it was “clear that his involvement in our group has become a complication and a distraction.” That’s the way the free market works in this great country of ours, is it not? And with that in mind, I know that Rush will join me in a chorus of “God Bless America”... albeit through his bitter tears. ☺Tags: asshole, drug-addled gasbag, football, loathsome people, racism, right-wing hate radio, rush limbaugh

Down in flames, yet again...  Ol' Grandpa Simpson has just announced his opposition to Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court, echoing the familiar Republican criticism alleging (*yawn*) "judicial activism." “I do not believe she shares my belief of judicial restraint," McCain said in a floor speech. "She is a judge who has foresworn judicial activism in her confirmation hearings, but who has a long record of it prior to 2009. And should she engage in activist decisions that overturn the considered constitutional judgments of millions of Americans, - if she uses her lifetime appointment on the bench as a perch to remake law in her own image of justice - I expect that Americans will hold us Senators accountable." Of course, McCain's cowardly no vote won't make even a scratch in Sotomayor's successful nomination, and he will ultimately have to answer to an ever-growing, angry bloc of Latino voters if he decides to run again in Arizona. Personally, I have a feeling his long, bitter career is finally coming to an end, as anything he has to say - on any issue - has become completely irrelevant. Time for the glue factory, old man... and good riddance. P.S. Where, exactly, is this "long list" of Sotomayor's "activism" prior to 2009 that McCain speaks of? Senator? Bueller? Anyone?Tags: asshole, john mccain, republican implosion, scotus

Open offer (and a bit more) to Lou Dobbs from Meteor Blades...  Ouch: Good journalists (you once had a reputation as one, Mr. Dobbs) check the facts. Especially on the big stories. There is nothing they won’t do, no place they won’t go, no amount of time they won’t spend to find out what’s really going on as best they can determine it. They’ll even spend money they don’t have to get access to information.
Good journalists (you’ve won a lot of awards for having been one once) can drive their spouses and their friends crazy working 80-hour weeks digging into files, reading documents and tracking down people to get the real skinny. Especially on the big stories.
Good journalists, as you allegedly once were, are skeptical of self-interested and ideologically driven sources.
Good journalists can sniff out an agenda faster than Zoom-Zoom Zumaya can put a fastball over the plate...

Meet Ohio State Representative and Minority Whip John Adams...  This Republican asshat has re-introduced a bill that would prevent a woman from having an abortion until she gets written consent from the biological father. As proposed, the bill triggers criminal penalties against women for “providing a false biological father.” Adams says the “first-degree misdemeanor” would be punishable with up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Labeled by Adams as the “Father’s Right Bill,” the lawr would give men the final say on abortion in the state of Ohio: In the case where the father isn’t known, House Bill 252 would compel the woman to provide a list of names of people who may be the father in an effort to determine paternity. The bill also would make it a crime for women to lie about who the father is, and make it illegal for doctors to perform abortions without the father’s consent.
The bill would also force a woman to have a child if the father does not agree to an abortion.“That child should be born, not killed,” Adams said. Adams first introduced this offensive piece of garbage legislation back in '07. Already, the bill has at least 15 co-sponsors. No word on instances of rape and incest (would the woman need to get a permission slip from the daddy then, too?). As Elizabeth Gettelman puts it: Listen, I get that a father has a vested interest in seeing his progeny thrive, that's a man's most basic evolutionary instinct. But until men have to carry a growing fetus for nine months, sometimes risking their health to do so, and most certainly altering the rest of their lives, until then, the woman has the final say. If she makes the hard decision that abortion is what's best for everyone, well, sorry boys, you're going to have to be live with that. Just like she will. P.S. Who wants to wager that this misogynist prick is either a closet homosexual or banging someone other than his wife?

"(Judge) Sotomayor's record of written statements suggest an
alarming lack of respect for the notion of equal justice, and
therefore, in my view, an insufficient willingness to abide by the
judicial oath... For that reason, I will oppose her nomination."Spoken just like a true political dumpster diver who's convinced he's still even vaguely relevant. P.S. Credit due to Dick Lugar, Olympia Snowe and Mel Martinez, all of whom have the common sense not to make complete partisan fools of themselves (like our asshat pal from Kin-tucky here).

Yet another Republican "family values" jackass, forced to choke on his own hypocrisy...  South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, whose mysterious disappearance last Thursday prompted national headlines, acknowledged this afternoon that he had an extramarital affair. "I've been unfaithful to my wife, and I developed a relationship with what started as a dear, dear friend from Argentina," he said, breaking down in tears, and telling reporters that he would resign as chair of the Republican Governor's Association. Asked if he was separated from his wife, Sanford said, "I guess in a formal sense we're not," adding that he and his wife Jenny were trying to "work through" the situation, and that Jenny has known about the affair for about five months. No word on whether his four boys were aware of it, too (must have been one hell of a Father's Day for them, eh?). "I've let down a lot of people," Sanford added. "That's the bottom line." Sanford's office initially explained his sudden, unannounced disappearance from the state by saying the governor was "hiking on the Appalachian Trail." This morning, however, the Sanford told the press he had considered going hiking as a break after the state legislative session, but then "changed his mind at the last minute." "Don't call me," he reportedly told his staff, explaining that he planned to turn off his cellphone, "I'll call you." Sanford asked this afternoon for a "zone of privacy" around himself and his family. Privacy? Why certainly, guv... just soon as you stop trying to force your "family values" into other people's lives. Asshole.

Just how stupid and heartless are Republicans? Meet AOTW winner Cynthia Davis, GOP State senator from Missouri...  In her June newsletter, Davis provided several “commentaries” to a press release from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services on a summer food program for poor children. Among them: Who’s buying dinner? Who is getting paid to serve the meal? Churches and other non-profits can do this at no cost to the taxpayer if it is warranted. [...] Bigger governmental programs take away our connectedness to the human family, our brotherhood and our need for one another. [...] Anyone under 18 can be eligible? Can’t they get a job during the summer by the time they are 16? Hunger can be a positive motivator. What is wrong with the idea of getting a job so you can get better meals? Tip: If you work for McDonald’s, they will feed you for free during your break. [...] It really is all about increasing government spending, which means an increase in taxes for us to buy more free lunches and breakfasts. Nice Christian ethic you've got there, asshole. So much for all that hippie Jesus talk about loaves and fishes, I guess. P.S. A report by Feeding America found that one in five children in Davis's own home state currently lives with hunger. The people of Missouri ought to round up this detestable tub of shit, impale her on a spit and roast her at a poverty picnic. Barring that, just go to the polls next time around and throw her the hell out of office. Tags: asshole, children, loathsome people, poverty, republican scum, starvation

Best wishes to the citizens of Iran tonight, despite the very long odds (and the bullet-ridden wrath) they're facing for simply demanding the right to free/fair elections. 
"What happens to Mousavi and his supporters now? By the power
of Khamenei’s words today, they are just one march away
from becoming enemies of the state..."Whatever the outcome (read: ugly either way), I do have to tip my cup to President Obama for staying the course he's on in this precarious situation. As much as I don't want to see Iranian civilians beaten and slaughtered in the streets, I - just as equally - don't want my country's hands drenched in blood ( yet again) by being involved - overtly or covertly - in the overthrow of a foreign government. Even if it means cheaper oil. :) Oh, wait. This is the Iranian people's battle to wage, uphill as it may be. The U.N., (as more often than not) is nothing but a hissing little mouse in this potentially explosive international event (whole 'nother post). Personally, I wouldn't shed a tear if Ahmadinejad's and Khamenei's severed heads turned up staked on poles in downtown Tehrān come Sunday morning.

Just when you thought you knew the depths of this scumbag's depravity...  Investigators who searched the apartment of accused Holocaust Museum killer James von Brunn have reportedly found child pornography on his computer. The Washington Post reports: FBI agents said they recovered the desktop computer during a search of the Annapolis apartment where von Brunn had lived for the past two years. The pornography was disclosed in a search warrant affidavit seeking to make a more thorough inspection of the computer. Authorities did not disclose the type or extent of the child pornography they found on the computer during their first search.
Agents also recovered from the apartment a 30-30 rifle, other computers, floppy discs, memory cards, cellphones, a handwritten will and what appeared to be a painting of Hitler and Jesus.
Von Brunn, who is on life support after being shot in the face, was recently ruled to be unfit to stand trial. A hearing is expected pending his recovery. In hindsight, I'm glad he survived. And I hope - after months of agony - he recovers so he can spend the rest of his miserable, revolting life locked in a cage.

A few questions for you, if I may:  • How can gay marriage (which you so vigorously oppose) be a "threat" to your marriage, but cheating on your wife (which you slammed Bill Clinton and Larry Craig on, going as far as to suggest they both resign) make your marriage stronger? • Are you going to follow your own lead and resign from the Senate? • Are you going to remain active in the Promise Keepers (you know - "Men of Integrity") now that you've been outed as an adulterer and a hypocrite? • How's that 2012 run for the run for the White House shaping up? P.S. Ooh... bummer, dude. Tags: asshole, cheating, gays, hypocrisy, lying liars, marriage, republican hypocrisy, republican sex scandals

 I'm sure that President Obama will be happy to know that his former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., has “ clarified” his remark to The Daily Press of Newport News this week, in which he told reporter David Squires he had not spoken to the president because "Them Jews aren’t going to let him talk to me.” Now, this statement seems to be a reference to the likes of Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff and David Axelrod, the senior presidential adviser, doesn't it? Never fear! Yesterday, Wright "set the record straight" during an appearance on the Sirius/XM radio program “Make it Plain with Mark Thompson” by explaining that that he simply “misspoke.” He said he was not talking about “all Jews.” Or, that he was only referring to “Zionists.’’ Or, that it all had to do with Israel’s history with the Palestinians, Or... OK, I give up. You can hear his "explanation" for yourself here. Audio from the original interview with the Daily Press (which caught up with Wright at a minister's conference) can be found here. Must be kinda hard to floss with your shoelaces, eh Rev?Tags: asshole, christian lunatics, jews, loathsome people, racism

Meet Pastor Wiley Drake, a deeply religious and prayerful fellow, indeed... This is the same Wiley Drake that had this to say about Dr. George Tiller's murder: "Would you have rejoiced when Adolf Hitler died during the war? I would have said, 'Amen, praise the Lord, hallelujah, I'm glad he's dead.' This man, George Tiller, was far greater in his atrocities than Adolf Hitler. So I am happy. I am glad that he is dead..." Sidenote: If our old friend Alan Keyes had somehow been elected president, Drake would now be our VP... And you thought Cheney was a a piece of shit work, eh? You can share some prayers of your own with the Pastor at wileydrake@hotmail.com, or 714-522-7201. Or, you could send him a friendly card or letter at 6801 Western Avenue, Buena Park, CA 90621-3231.

While secessionist Governor Rick Perry of Texas continues his idiotic rants against Washington bailouts, state lawmakers are in the process of spending $11 million in federal stimulus money to help rebuild the Texas Governor's Mansion, which was damaged in an arson fire last summer...  Approximately $10 million in state tax money will also be spent on a renovation, which is expected to cost about $20 million. A House-Senate committee agreed on the expenditures late Wednesday night. Perry has railed against federal bailouts and what he called the free-spending, power-hungry ways of Washington. In January, he said Texas was endangered by Uncle Sam's "audacity." The governor is currently living in a three-story, limestone home with a heated pool, an outdoor cabana and a guest house. Texas taxpayers are shelling out the $9,900/month rent while the mansion undergoes renovations. "Audacity," indeed.
