Congratulations to the Twins!

Let's hear a big cheer for the Minnesota Twins for clinching the American League Central Division and ensuring that The Mouth and the rest of his Dirty Hose will be watching the MLB playoffs in front of a TV set.

Vive le France! Vive la Loi Contre des Burqas!

The French Senate today passed by a landslide 246-1 vote a law prohibiting women from being forced to wear the demeaning full-body and face covering garment known as the burqa.

Sexist, controlling pigs who force their wives and daughters to wear such garments in public will face one-year jail terms.

President Nicolas Sarkozy has said the burqa is ''not welcome in France'' and National Assembly President Bernard Accoyer said, ''The full veil represents in an extraordinary way everything that France spontaneously rejects.''

A national poll by the Pew Global Attitudes Project earlier this year found that the French public backed the ban by an 82-17 margin. Similar polling in Great Britain, Germany and Spain also shows public support for burqa bans there, too.
