Americans were justifiably outraged when AIG, which received billions in U.S. taxpayer money in bailouts, paid out hefty bonuses to its executives. So where is the outrage when African leaders, who receive U.S. taxpayers’ money in foreign aid, build palaces for themselves while their people wallow in abject poverty?
It is an inconvenient movie in an inconvenient location. I can hear it, I can see the remote from where I am sitting, but I can’t get up the desire to go and turn Al Gore off. Sure, no one is watching the TV but I only have so much energy to deal with myself.
I guess I’ll just have to wait for the snow to start reeking havoc with our power grid to have the TV turn off itself.
Don’t worry, I’m not listening to him anymore. I turned up my music.
Now, to continue my letter to the CBC to complain about the influence of American politicians on our National broadcaster. What about the Canadian content? We need more HOCKEY!
You ran an amazing campaign with the full support of the media and the desire to dispose of an unpopular president.
Now lets see what you can do with the Kos kids wanting you to give them what you promised.
I can’t help but think that as the NYT and CNN teams were reading this, they weren’t realizing it was mockery.
Also, can anyone else see a 22 year old Obama supporter asking all his friends why the reporter was writing that funny English?

You thought Nagin was bad?
Here’s a case of biting the hand that feeds you.

In New Orleans, many think that hurricanes cause the most damage. In New Orleans, Mayor Ray Nagin may actually be trying to be the number one problem.
The mayor of New Orleans turned down an offer for the city to make $5 million on the removal of vehicles wrecked by Hurricane Katrina and instead opted for plan that would have cost the city $23 million.
When you make Snopes because of your lack of common sense, you really have made it.
Note: The residents of New Orleans, whose first mistake is still living under sea level in Hurricaneville, voted this clown in again.
Thanks Rob.

The FDA would like restaurants to change their menus.
The report encourages restaurants to shift the emphasis of their marketing to lower-calorie choices, and include more such options on menus. In addition, restaurants could jigger portion sizes and the variety of foods available in mixed dishes to reduce the overall number of calories taken in by diners.
Is this not already happening? McDonalds offers both microwaved horse burgers as well as fake salad.
I wonder how many tax dollars went to fund this report?
