Chink bulk carrier which ran aground off Queensland has caused widespread damage to the famed Great Barrier Reef.

So what? Al Gore is fat and those Walmarts are not going to restock them selves. Now step off.

He rules the world.

Stormfront for life bitches!

Richard Dawkins, the atheist campaigner, is planning a legal ambush to have the Pope arrested during his state visit to Britain “for crimes against humanity”.

"Some conspicuously unintelligent right-wing media personality said something stupid....

....about a subject she knows nothing about. Mr. President, how do you respond?"

And, look: when you break something, and have to buy it,

No, no you don't. You look sheepish and then the cashier says over the intercom; "Clean Up On Isle 2!" No, the US never wanted things to get better in Afghanistan or Iraq. It was always about letting brown people "Suck on this!" as the great Mustache of Understanding said. J.B.S. "Doghouse" Riley, you are a fucking idiot. The US is going to bail. Sooner the better. ChimpyCo's wild adventure was/is a strategic failure. Building on Chipy's epic failure isn't a good idea either. Two wrongs don't make a right.

More Air Marshals getting arrested than Air Marshals make arrests

When an Air Marshal does make an arrest it costs $200 million dollars US every time.

Well that was Mighty White of Virginia's GOP Governor Bob McDonnell

Gee, sure hope all that racist slavery thing didn't harsh his celebratory buzz.

"Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"

Obama did not utter those words. Ever. Fuck you, racists.

Palin is like Chipy.

Rat shit insane, but marginally less vicious.

Having our patriotism and love for the United States questioned by people who lionize the worst traitors in American history is bloody irritating.

1 The Civil War was about slavery. We have copious evidence, supplied by actual Confederates, that slavery was the key issue upon which secession resolved. To put this another way, the traitors who led the South were willing to kill in defense of their right to own black people.
2 The antebellum South was chock full of people who didn’t think that treason in defense of slavery was a good idea. One subset of these people were the slaves themselves, who made up between 25% and 60% of the population of every Southern state. Another subset were the peoples of West Virginia, East Tennessee, and several other pro-Union regions of the South. Yet another subset were patriotic Americans who chose to remain loyal to the Union, such as General George Thomas of Virginia. For all of the nonsense about how Civil War commemoration is about valor rather than slavery, there are bloody few statues of Thomas in Virginia today.
3 There is something remarkably odd about the belief that commemoration of the Southern experience must concentrate on the four years in which the South waged a bloody rebellion in service of human servitude, rather than other 230 years of Southern history.

....China has raced past the United States in the past few years.

Hey America! Get used to that phrase. You'll be hearing it alot more.

The Civil War, indeed, was significantly about slavery.

That needed to be mentioned?

no one displaying the Confederate flag gets to lecture any American about patriotism - ever.

Ditto for anyone trafficking in Confederate nostalgia as a political strategy.

Confederate History Month Is for Losers

Congratulations, Virginia, for honoring a violent conspiracy to keep human beings enslaved without even mentioning it in the proclamation.

General Electric, which “generated $10.3 billion in pretax income, but ended up owing nothing to Uncle Sam.

In fact, in 2008, the Government Accountability Office found that “two out of every three United States corporations paid no federal income taxes from 1998 through 2005.”
