Recall organizers prepare suit in effort to remove Cao
~Dave Cohen, WWLJoseph Cao: "I Might Be In the Closet"~Ryan Grim~Rep. Anh "Joseph" Cao, a Republican in a deeply Democratic Louisiana district, was welcomed on Tuesday night into the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus.
Addressing the group at a ceremony in the Capitol Visitors Center, Cao did a little bipartisan outreach.
"Don't tell the Republicans, but I might be a closet Democrat," said Cao to a round of laughter.
~Editilla Swings a Happy Snap~Weeeeeell, as a Conservative Christian Republican, Cao is Statistically more likely to be a Closeted pedophile, pederast, bathroom stalker, French Quarter John, exorcist, exterminator or meth’head cheese fucker. Jus’sayin…
Indeed, Joseph Cao’s party kinda leans to the Closet Lobby.
I think this is really his subconscious desires talking beneath a well suppressed “closeted” sexuality. And he wants it to come out… it needs help coming out, the way other fundamentalist Christians blithely toss that word “closet” around. Semantic sin… he has to be committing Semantic Sin in order for his Joke to work, right? In his mind Cao knows what the reference means because it exists there every minute of the day for Joseph Cao,
to wit:

Letter to Editor From Alaska:Dear Governor Bobby Jindal,I would like to point out that the money for volcano-monitoring is for the Eskimos in Alaska so that they will have early warning of an exploding volcano. With this early warning information, the Alaskan Eskimos will be able to evacuate the area in time to be able to save their lives. The politicians, the rich, the powerful and the white people have early warning systems to tell them when the volcano in their area is going to blow up on them. So, they will be able to get out of the area in time and save their selves.
The Republicans do not want money being wasted on the minority Eskimos to have early warning of an exploding volcano in their area. The Eskimos are not important politicians, not rich, not powerful and they are not white. Thus, they are expendable as far as the Republican Party is concerned. If the volcano in their area blows up and takes out the minority Eskimos, well, that is of no concern to the Republican Party.
Tell me this is not so for you and the Republican Party? Do you still say that the minority Eskimos of Alaska should not have early warning of a volcano that is going to explode in their area?
Sincerely, John Suter, Chugiak, AK Bayoubuzz will be pleased to post a response.

Gigantic gem is subject of LA
court case~Linda Deutsch
~The emerald was dug up in Brazil in 2001 and became known as the
Bahia Emerald.
Its first owner was a Brazilian gem trader who made the first sale of it. But after that, its route became muddled. At one point, it wound up in a warehouse in New Orleans that was flooded during Hurricane Katrina. This undated image provided by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's office shows an 840-pound emerald which will remain in the custody of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department while a judge decides which of a half-dozen claimants owns the boulder-sized rock, appraised at $370 million.
