I like hearing news like this.

Michael Jackson died. He also used to touch kids. Here's Michael the way I'll always remember him.

Obama = FDR = War With N. Korea?

Let's see, Obama is compared to FDR all the time. We're in a financial mess. Bailouts didn't work for FDR, but war did.

You see, there are lots of jobs being done in China that could be done here, though at a higher cost. War with N. Korea would make China choose a side, and they'd probably choose to side with N. Korea, which may cause us to impose trade sanctions against China. This could lead to more jobs stateside since we could not get our goods from China.

Protectionist policies are a staple of the Dems, and what better reason to put them in place?

I work for a company that offshores a lot of stateside work to China. The recent saber rattling with N. Korea has some of us wondering if this is still prudent. I don't think it was ever prudent in the first place, but I digress. Maybe its time to hedge our bets stateside.

Hmmm... End of the recession using war just like FDR did?

More Fun With Unions

Get hired, get fired, get a free ride.

Funnies

So...

...you ever hear anyone bust out with the theory that Steven Spielberg hates kids because he's always killing them or hurting them in some way in his movies? Well, I don't know if that's true or not (I mean he CGIed walky talkies into the hands of the FBI in E.T., for crying out loud), but I think I can safely say that Roland Emmerich hates the whole planet. Independence Day. The Day After Tomorrow. And now this:

Seriously, this guy loves blowing up the world. I wonder how close this guy got to being the original Columbine in school.

And BTW, maybe the Mayans stopped at 2012 cause it got old. Or maybe they figured they were giving themselves an awful lot of credit.

I Hate It When I Discover What A Hypocrite I Am

Jim Carrey may take part in founding a new religion and I am a little sickened by it.

The Fascism Continues

FDA now in control of tobacco.

Today's Top Topic

Palin vs. Letterman, still.

She is once again getting lampooned for not taking Letterman's joke even though liberal group NOW has spoken out against Letterman. I am not surprised by Letterman's joke and I'm not surprised by Palin's response, but aren't guys like Lauer pointless in all this?

What's The Soup Du Jour?

Heavy handed symbolism? Mmm...that sounds good. I'll have that.

Charles Darwin is...William Wallace. They'll never take our DNA!!! He's a hero, get it?
Fucking Christian trogolodytes are going to hate this shit.

Needs a buggy chase.

Enjoy This Utterly Pointless...Article?

I don't really care that this guy is an atheist, but I might punch him in the face for being a smug prick. And seriously, what if people had treated him poorly? He very obviously tackled this little "project" with the intent of inciting people. He probably equates this sort of action with a War Memorial. Fucking idiot.

Because I So Love Unions

that I'll pass this along:

Unions go bust spending so much to elect Barack.

Is "Marriage" What Is Important To Gay Marriage Supporters, Or Is It The So-called "Equality" Of It?

I think these comments by Diaz are very telling.

And now for my two cents:
Gay marriage supporters look at gay marriage only as a means to make things "fair", to elevate homosexual unions as something that is natural and equal to heterosexual marriage. The idea to recognize the differences between the two is seen as discriminatory. Both are the same to gay marriage supporters and society should reflect it as such, but what really is their opinion about marriage to begin with?
I wouldn't be surprised if it was rather low.
