Happy Xmas (War Is Over) (But Not Really) (And...
Hooray! After close to a decade, our long national cakewalk is finally over. We went into Iraq in 2003 with four simple goals: blow a bunch of shit up, kill lots of people, funnel tons of money to shady private contractors, and electrocute our soldiers in showers. And we succeeded at all of them! U S A! U S A!
But alas, even the most successful of wars must come to an end. And so the Iraq War...
Obama fucks teenage girls (figuratively)
President Obama, who, as the result of an experiment gone horribly wrong in David Axelrod’s laboratory, requires the sweet, life-sustaining juices of liberal disappointment to stave off death, was growing weak yesterday. He had done something that liberals, even many who are very dissatisfied with him (myself included), actually liked. His speech in Osawatomie, Kansas previewed a 2012 in...

‘After watching the video, Charles J. Kelly, a former Baltimore Police Department lieutenant, said he observed at least two cases of “active resistance” from protesters. In one instance, a woman pulls her arm back from an officer. In the second instance, a protester curls into a ball. Each of those actions could have warranted more force, including baton strikes and...
A third letter from UC Davis Chancellor Linda...
Dear Member of the UC Davis Community,
I am writing to you a third time because I’m afraid my earlier letters did not convey just how deeply felt is my contempt for your intelligence. I would also like to engage in a little more blatant hypocrisy, try to cover my ass some more, and maybe get in a few more vague threats.
I am deeply saddened that a number of students chose to draw pepper...
