"They are Americans in their hearts, in their minds, in every way, except for one: on paper."

...seriously? First of all, when you're talking about the law, "on paper" is all that matters. You could apply this logic to anything. Look at Piracy. I am the rightful owner of these files "in my heart, in my mind, in every way except for one: paper."

I have been attempting to scale myself back for the past few days. Honestly, I have. I realize I'm starting to alienate the people I care about with the amount of anger and frustration I display towards things I see as stupid and unreasonable. And while I contend that the only difference between my feed and most of my friend's feeds is that the ( Read more... )

So the DOW dropped another 300 points. If Obama gets re-elected, it won't be on a platform of "look what I've done for the economy!" Let the history books show that America lost its AAA credit rating on Barack Obama's watch.

Just so I'm clear, I'm not saying this is all his fault. I’m not saying that everything was perfect when he took office, and ( Read more... )

     Here's what gets me about the debt ceiling issue: why aren't people angrier at Obama over this? The man was supposed to LOWER our debt; and instead, three years later, under his watch, the debt is higher than it's EVER been. We're about to DEFAULT on our debt. I mean, how did this happen? It's not like the government spent billions of dollars ( Read more... )

An excerpt from this LA Times article:

…State television scoffed at statements President Obama made condemning the violence against protesters but maintaining that the U.S. did not wish to interfere in Iranian affairs. "The president of America once again supported the agitators inside Iran last night," said a news announcer. "Of course, the ( Read more... )

         Protesting, at this point, is useless. Do you really think that there’s anyone, anywhere, from any political group sitting around going “man, the deaths, the fighting, this stuff is GOLD! I hope this NEVER stops!” Everyone wants to bring this situation to a close. We all want to bring our boys home. It’s not a matter of the government not ( Read more... )

Another example of how The Post slants its stories. It puts up in big, bold letters "Warrantless Surveillance" to make you think about guys in dark suits and shades putting taps in random people's phones. What they barely mention, and bury in the story is the fact that this bill does not give them the right to ease drop on American soil. The bill ( Read more... )

Pornstar demands equal time on Leno.

O.k., so the pornstar that ran for governor of California during the recall election is running again, and she's all pissed because she didn't get equal time as Arnold on Leno. She keeps talking about her popularity and backs up her claims with her Google rankings and "prepares" for the coming election by loosing ( Read more... )

I'm surprised. I was well-prepared for that test to say I was a total jerk.
