Support our troops, buy a frosty soda!
Curzon at Coming Anarchy concludes, "I don’t think any readers are the type of people to be suckered into buying a super-sized soft drink on the grounds that it’s doing our troops a favor, but just in case you get the urge, hear me out: using patriotism to capture your consumer dollar is a cheap gimic that does no benefit to our troops or our country. Show them you care and don’t supersize."

Bush was bombed...(and other funnies)
"Deputy White House Press Secretary Dana Perino promptly put the incident through the proper spin cycle, telling ABC News, 'It was his lucky day…everyone knows that's a sign of good luck.' " Sure, whatever. He better have washed his hands after.
Watch it happen here (wmp) or here (quicktime).

What the...
While it seemed that things were cheerful and light, it was apparent that it was in reality not so. The children have been deeply affected by the war they must live in the middle of, and this was apparent in the things that they said.
"I'm going to bomb, bomb, bomb the school with everybody in it," said Omar Hussein, as he clutched a pink toy airplane.
Another girl sang, I give a knife to my father to slaughter the chicken. He gives me a machine gun and a rifle. Now, I am a soldier in the liberation army."
Most of the children have expressed their wanting to "live like before". And they deserve it. It is truly heartbreaking to see how this war has affected these children. Even though they may not know what they say, this war has bred a new hate within even younger generations as they've been stripped of their innocence by what they've heard, seen, and feel.

BUSH caught on tape!
Apparently he had been casually crusing around on his ranch with Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, the NATO Secretary General. Sadly, Bush smiles for the camera with his seatbelt obviously unbuckled.
"If he was on private property, he was not breaking the law," said Tom Vinger, spokesperson for the Texas Department of Public Safety.
While legal on his own property, his non-seatbelt wearing isn't such a hot way to start off National Seatbelt Week. But apparently this isn't a new thing for him as I've found a handful of other pictures of Bush unbuckled (e.g. see picture above). Way to set an example!

Let the children learn!
And how will this be paid for? If implemented, Clinton plans to close tax loopholes to and to do away with Bush admin programs she disagrees with.
"She said quality pre-kindergarten programs will more than pay for themselves because children will be less likely to enter special education programs, drop out of school or enter the welfare system. She also said preparing children for school also reduces behavioral problems."
This sounds like a good program, but I wonder if it will really stay voluntary. (E.g. seatbelt laws, which by no means is bad). If the benefits outweigh the costs, then I'm all for it. Hilary needs to back it with some research to show this in order to gain support, which this article fails to provide.

BILL CLINTON DEAD.
"The manager of the Orange County Animal Shelter said police Tasered him. But a police spokesman said officers didn't use a Taser stun gun or tranquilizers. He said the bird injured himself as police tried to load him into a truck to take him to the shelter."
Poor poor emu. I wonder how many people actually thought the former president, Bill Clinton, had died. Goodness.

Because it REALLY matters
Most of the hopefuls have pets, while four do not. You know what that means! Animal lovers/pet owners: Don't vote Obama, Giuliani, Tancredo, or Dodd. Just kidding.
Among all the candidates, McCain is the most animal crazy of them all! Twenty-two to be exact. How on Earth does he keep so many pets is beyond me.
Anyway, I don't know why knowing which candidate has pets or not really matters. It's just one of those silly, random things I guess. Whats new?
Here's a list for all you curious ones out there:
DEMOCRATS
Delaware Sen. Joe Biden: A cat.
New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton: "Seamus, our Lab."
Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd: None because of family's allergies. Would like a dog.
Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards: Golden retriever and chocolate Lab.
Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich: Pound-rescues Harry the beagle-basset, Lucie the beagle and George the cocker spaniel.
Illinois Sen. Barack Obama: None.
New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson: Cats Jake and Squeaky.
REPUBLICANS
Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback: Two dogs, two cats and a fish.
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani: None.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee: Jet the 9-year-old black Lab, Sonic the 1 1/2-year-old Shih Tzu.
California Rep. Duncan Hunter: Two black Labs, Boo and Hunter.
Arizona Sen. John McCain: Sam the English springer spaniel, Coco the mutt, turtles Cuff and Link, Oreo the black and white cat, a ferret, three parakeets and 13 saltwater fish.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney: Family recently lost Marley, a Weimaraner.
Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo: No longer has a pet.

No duh.
Also, isn't everyone being sent over there suffering from the same threat of death? What makes him so special? Oh right, he's a royal baby.
Harry is reported to have been crying ever since he found out. No really, he's "very disappointed".
"He has proved himself both at Sandhurst and in command of his troop during their training. I commend him for his determination and his undoubted talent -- and I do not say that lightly. His soldiers will miss his leadership in Iraq, although I know his commanding officer will provide a highly capable substitute troop leader."

Kerry loves em blackberries!
On a flight to San Francisco, a friendly observer made note of Senator John Kerry's activities(while sitting comfortably next to him). Kerry had been noted reading "They March Into Sunlight: War and Peace Vietnam and America October 1967" by David Maraniss. He also was reported to have a legal journal in hand when he sat down, but didnt do any work in it and slept instead. And rightfully so, he must have been tired like anyone with a hectic schedule,
"He must have slept for over an hour and the whole time his mouth was opened wide. I didn't detect any drool."
Too funny.
Kerry also engaged himself with playing a Blackberry video game. Which one? The one with a paddle and ball, and where you have to knock down bricks with the ball, all the while the game speeds up. Yeah, I don't have a Blackberry so please excuse the game description. Apparently the Senator got really into the game too, as he was often described to have jerked around to make the right moves.
Kerry sounds fun.

Second life = real life, and recap on scary mouse caught on vid

Soo...earlier this week I wrote about Hamas Tv and their use of a rip-off Mickey Mouse to brainwash children to takeover Islam. Well, I came across an actual video clip of the program. Here it is:
It still gives me chills.

Lactation day: come one, come all!
Sounds nice and all, but I wonder how necessary this really is. I mean, how many people actually take their infants to work? Plus, aren't there lactation pumps for mothers to pump their own milk for storage?
Anyway, this event will probably be swarmed by gross, lonely men TRYING to sneak a peek. According to the Wonkette, men are supposed to leave at such times. Ha, we'll see if that works.

Hiel Bowles!
What will he bring to the table if elected president? American voters can expect, " free health care, lower food prices (through the elimination of the "kosher tax"), lower taxes (by cutting off aid to Israel), and the orderly deportation of all non-whites to Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. All white soldiers can expect to be recalled from overseas duty and be placed on the Southern border so they can help 'stop the invasion.'"
Spoken like a true white supermascist nazi. And what a stupid candidate. The only contributor to his campaign is himself. Is he really serious about running (obviously not) or is he running to piss people off?

Mickey Mouse endorses Islam's destruction
Hamas militants have recruited one of the world's most iconic cartoon characters to advocate their message of Islam takeover to little children. Who you ask? Well if you couldn't already tell from the picture to the left (or read the titled of this post for that matter), it's none other than Mickey Mouse! Or should I say, "Mickey Mouse" as their ripoff rendition of the character looks more like a screwed up rat, and is named "Fafour" (which means butterfly).
Fafour also has his own show, whose audience consists of little children at their most impressionable stages. Children are free to call into the show, singing anthems about Israeli's takeover.
Fafour squeaks,"We will return the Islamic community to its former greatness, and liberate Jerusalem, God willing, liberate Iraq, God willing, and liberate all the countries of the Muslims invaded by the murderers."
Representatives from Walt Disney Co. have not (yet) commented on this issue.
Wow, does anyone else find this really creepy and wrong?

College students are on a roll :P
A classmate whom Wargo communicated with later tattled on him to the university. Wargo was accused with, "terrorizing, communicating false information of planned arson and possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia".
Caught planning an attack AND for drug possession? He's screwed, and will probably get life with the way our drug policy is.
College students are really making a terrible impression lately (i.e. Cho, Wargo, and did anyone else get that email about those sexual assaulters in their UCI inbox today?)

Darn those delinquents!
Bush stated, “And if I didn’t think it was necessary for the security of the country, I wouldn’t put our kids in harm’s way.”
While many soldiers over in Iraq are kids (18 and early 20 year olds) in comparison to him, not all are. We've got mature aged captains being killed in Iraq.
As for the enemy Bush stated, “You can attack a nation several ways. One, you can get 19 kids to fly airplanes into buildings, or you can gain control of something a country needs and deny that country access to that, in this case, oil, and run the price of oil up, all attempting to inflict serious economic damage.”
Last time I checked the hijackers weren't kids? Looks like Bush needs some new goggles. wah wah.

Thumbs down: Obama, usurper of myspace site
Here's the link to the site:
The creator, Joe Anthony, made the site in 2004 when Obama was elected to the Senate. The site became a central meeting place for people to learn about and discuss Obama. When the site was usurped, it had already acquired over 30,000 friends.
However trivial, or "high school" this whole stealing a MySpace site seems, it is unfair how it was taken without permission NOR compensation. I mean, the guy who created it spent two years running it, and is (or was) obviously a great supporter of Obama. This kind of move gives off the wrong impression to his supporters.
