Flotilla Attacked, U.S. Response: “Free Israel. F*&k Palestine”

By: Wednesday June 2, 2010 8:48 am

In the 36 hours since Israel committed the war crime of murdering an unknown number of civilians on a ship they invaded in international waters, CNN and other major media outlets have turned their airwaves over to the Israeli propaganda machine to wage a one-way debate: a Goliath pummeling an absentee David. This is a conflict where Biblical allusions take on extra significance, where the old testament is waved about like a real estate deed and where the U.S. stands hip to hip, check by jowl and arm over should with Israel against the rest of the world brutally enforcing a military and media policy that can be summed up with the phrase FREE ISREAL, F**K PALESTINE.

The family of the 2 year old Indonesian baby who become an overnight internet sensation after several international news organizations ran stories showing the boy reclining with a cigarette in his mouth are now laughing all the way to the bank

Obama and BP: Killing you and killing me

By: Wednesday May 26, 2010 1:20 pm

The truth is, we need oil. Even if we took every Randian Regressive SUV loving American and secretly slipped them fair trade organic coffee and sprinkled some Ed Begley Jr. pixie dust that magically turned everyone in the United States into members of the green party and we elected people like Rev. Billy to office, there is still going to be a significant transition period as we wean ourselves from our suicidal and homicidal addiction to oil.

What do BP OIL, Andy Dick and LOST have in common?

By: Tuesday May 25, 2010 11:21 am

So, we are now just over a month into the largest environmental disaster in history as it unfolds in slow motion before our eyes; the geyser spewing anywhere between 5 and 110 millions gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico (depending on what estimates you believe) and we, as only Americans can, care less and less and less as time drips on like a an ancient form of Chinese torture, just another chapter in our Christian Nation’s favorite book: The End of F*cken Days, right?

Why Elena Kagan?

By: Monday May 10, 2010 11:56 am

While we know very little about Kagan, we do know one key difference between regressives and progressives: Regressives, sometime referred to as conservatives in polite company, actually have a voice in the Republican Party. And, when given the opportunity to appoint a judge onto the Supreme Court, the regressives have no problem nominating right wing lunatic activists judges like Sam Alito & John Roberts with a long paper trial.

Tax Day Tea Party: Ayn Randian Regressive Economics

By: Thursday April 15, 2010 1:02 pm

Will Rogers, America’s Cowboy Comedian and the top movie star of his time famously said of taxes: “The difference between death and taxes is death doesn’t get worse every time Congress meets.” You know what Will Rogers? Bleep you and the horse you rode in on! I have to say, I actually like taxes. Really.

(video) Tiger Woods’ Masters Press Conference: NO mention of “sex addition”

By: Monday April 5, 2010 2:41 pm

This week, as the second coming of Nike’s messiah begins, we probably will not get to know the real Tiger any better. Weathered, and brandishing a few scars, Tiger will become a much more likeable – and bankable figure.

Even I’m gonna watch golf this weekend. So should you. Go on, just do it.

(video) Sarah Palin’s Real American Stories: A Kindler, Gentler Form of Propaganda

By: Friday April 2, 2010 9:27 am

Heroism, Courage, generosity and the warrior spirit those are things that unite all Americans. With this, the ½ term Alaska Governor, former VP nominee, runner up for Miss Wasilla 1984, and current headlining act for the tea party terrorist tour, began her much anticipated one hour Fox Special.
