But before we fix anything, how's about some completely irrelevant college football?
Harry Reid keeping his priorities strait in order*. Why get worked up about this "economy" thing when there's pandering to be done? And this wasn't some crackpot wingnut hater who…
And by "Conversation" I mean "Shut UP"

Facebook Trademarks "Face"
No, really. Yes, just the word, "face". Er, "Face®". They had to have paid somebody off to get this to happen. Even here, now, in the light of what's gone…
Improving the TSA Screening Process
Please tell me this has been done by somebody somewhere before I was actually working on a post which had as its thesis that hiring strippers to perform those…

First off, let me say that I'm a huge Reagan fan, and a growing Christie fan. Hah! I've made a joke about size. How droll! It's just that I keep…
Good Thing They Weren't Carrying Weapons
This is just too stupid to be described adequately, an account of what happens when US soldiers come back to our wonderfully secure airports. Picture hundreds of fully-armed military going…
Engrish Video: TSA Screening Procedures
Weren't we supposed to have flying cars by now? I rate this video a firm, "ah, whatever." However, this whole TSA-family-jewels-3-year-old-Catholic-nun-groping thing needs some major PR help. Like, now….
Nancy Pelosi Still Has What It Takes!

Short Film: Reveille
I defy you not to feel something watching this. I DEFY YOU. Still as moving as when I first saw it in 2006. For more information about this short,…
Gerrymandering 101
Everybody does it. Just get over that fact. Changing the districts is a political reality that is both extremely powerful, and never going away. Everybody complains about it, yet…
OH! Because Chris Christie is Fat, Therefore One Would Need A Larger Entrance!
It took me a moment when i saw this at Weasel Zippers, but I finally figured out why Chris Matthews said that! He was making oh the most droll pun…
Dear Google Reader,
