Quotes of the Week: Obama on 9/11, and Batman’s Rebuttal
Filed Under Religion, War | Leave a Comment

Middle Eastern News Agencies Almost As Unreliable as American News Agencies
Filed Under Current Events, War | Leave a Comment
Yesterday I was reminded of what is a hilarious compliment to Iran’s missile test photoshopping that I heard about last year, but had forgotten. It bears repeating now just so everybody notices a pattern of behavior that should make us incredibily skeptical of anything that comes out of…well, just about any news agency.
If you missed [...]

Obama and The New Yorker: ‘With Friends Like These…’
Filed Under Current Events, Politics, Religion, War | Leave a Comment
The New Yorker, in an attempt to point out the ridiculously over-the-top nature of some of the criticisms against Barack Obama, has the following picture on the cover of their magazine that seems to have garnered a reaction quite opposite to the stated intention.

President Bush was giving the annual July 4th speech at Thomas Jefferson’s home, Monticello, and Code Pink, and a few others, were there.

Filed Under Current Events, Politics, War | Leave a Comment
Hot on the heels of Wesley Clark saying about John McCain, “I don’t think getting in a fighter plane and getting shot down is a qualification to become president” (it isn’t a disqualification either), we have Democrat strategist and attorney (today’s redundancy is sponsored by Valvoline) John Aravosis writing the following about McCain:

The French military has finally attacked something. Unfortunately, the country they attacked was France:
PARIS, France (AP) — A military shooting demonstration in southeast France on Sunday left 16 people wounded, including children, when real bullets were used instead of blank ones, officials said.
The military shooters immediately surrendered to themselves, of course.
