Mitt Romney is disingenuous, readers. Here’s what he said in response to Barack Obama’s statement that American kids would benefit from learning languages:
Just last week the onetime Republican presidential hopeful said Obama “looks toward Europe for a lot of his inspiration” after the Illinois senator suggested Americans would benefit from knowing more languages.
“I think [...]
You think you’ve heard it all, readers. Then President Bush manages to surprise you again:
The American leader, who has been condemned throughout his presidency for failing to tackle climate change, ended a private meeting [at the G8 Summit in Toyako, Japan] with the words: “Goodbye from the world’s biggest polluter.”
He then punched the air [...]
My new hero is L.F. Eason III of Raleigh, NC, a man of principle who opted to retire from his job at the NC State Department of Agriculture rather than have the flags at his research facility lowered to half-mast in honor of the passing of the loathsome ex-Sen. Jesse Helms.
“Regardless of any executive proclamation, [...]
Mark Noonan (of Blogs For Victory) is tickled pink about a Washington Post article that says the US government has found that “hundreds” (out of how many? The article doesn’t say) of “insurgents, detainees and ordinary people” who’ve been “detained and fingerprinted by the US government in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Horn of Africa” [...]

And there’s this conspiracy theory is that Mrs. Clinton, through Mr. McAuliffe, is gonna [...]
Wingnuts constantly frame the idea of US military withdrawal from Iraq as “surrender,” “retreat,” and/or “defeat.” They insist “we should win the war” instead.
But here’s the funny part: no wingnut has ever been able to describe what “winning the war” would actually look like. Not one of them has any idea what [...]
You might have been wondering, readers: How does Sen. McCain propose to reduce the size of the federal deficit? Well, the McCain campaign has answered the question for us: All we gotta do is WIN THE WAR(S)!
The McCain administration would reserve all savings from victory in the Iraq and Afghanistan operations in [...]
From now on, readers, I want to be known on the Internet as “Dumpendebat Hussein.”
[S]he joined a growing band of supporters of Senator Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, who are expressing solidarity with him by informally adopting his middle name.
The result is a group of unlikely-sounding Husseins: Jewish and Catholic, Hispanic and Asian [...]
The words of Sen. Christopher “Kit” Bond (R. - Mo.):
“I’m not here to say that the government is always right, but when the government tells you to do something, I’m sure you would all agree that I think you all recognize that is something you need to do,” Bond said.
That doesn’t have quite the same [...]
I’m back, readers, with photos, as promised.
I’m still working on the pictures of Egypt, but what the hell, you can wait for those; you’ve all seen a million pictures of the Sphinx and the Pyramids anyways. Here are pictures of Ethiopia:
Pictures of Addis Ababa, the capital city.
Pictures of the Guassa afroalpine grassland (in [...]
