The headline was simple enough:
Catholic Group Urges Boycott of Miller Brewing Co. Over San Francisco Fair Sponsorship
A church group is mad at a beer company. Big whoop. May as well have run a Britney Spears headline. However, reading the story opens all kinds of doors. First of all, what they were initially mad at was [...]

In the form of a resolution, Congress took a hard slap at the United Nations Human Rights Council.
Basically, it goes like this. The United Nations formed a council to look into human rights violations and do what it can to assure human rights are respected all over the globe. With the continuing genocide in Africa, [...]

Well, here it is:
I really can’t see what’s so offensive about this one to the tune it can’t get on tv in Houston.
I myself was hoping to see a little more.
I’d actually like to see a lot more like this and a lot less of those commercials promoting super-caffeinated drinks aimed at children. Now, to [...]

Iran’s president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is disappointed the US is not allowing him to roam free in the US speaking. His logic for allowing to do so is something like this:
Ahmadinejad said the American people have been denied “correct information,” and his visit will give them a chance to hear a different voice, the official IRNA news [...]

Scrappleface, that’s Scott Ott in disguise, ran another one of their better satires on American politics. I’m going to violate Scott in the most horrid manner possible by just posting the whole thing here. I have to, because it leads to even more horrid things later. Here goes:
(2007-09-20) — Vice President Dick Cheney, responding to [...]

Dan Rather filed a $70 million lawsuit against CBS and his former bosses Wednesday, claiming they made him a “scapegoat” for a discredited story about President Bush’s military service during the Vietnam War.
The 75-year-old Rather, whose final months were clouded by controversy over the story, said the actions of the defendants damaged his reputation and [...]

Every time I think The View has sunk to the lowest it can possibly get, a new character drags it even lower. We had the Rosie blaming Bush for 9/11 crap, citing metal doesn’t melt due to fire.

Jesse Jackson blasted Barack Obama because Obama hasn’t brought attention to a racial incident in Jena, Louisiana. Jesse’s claim is that Barack is “acting white” by not making it the centerpiece of his campaign right now. This is so typical Jesse Jackson it’s sickening to me. Racial tensions reached a loggerhead in the 60’s, when [...]

The University of Florida Police Department is taking some heat for the less than subtle means they used to shut up Andrew Meyer during a John Kerry presentation. Wearing the over-abused cliche drooping khaki pants and a t-shirt, this guy was obviously no threat to anyone. The cops didn’t get his prank or thought it [...]
