Threat to Christmas and The War on Freedom

This is the Christmas card that Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen sent out this year. Seems innocent right? It’s just a painting of a Muslim girl he met on a trip to Afghanistan in March. The point of the card is to show that we are all God’s children and he cares about all of us.
Yeah, it’s unorthodox for a […]

Europeans to Drive Up Cost of US Travel in 07′

Thanks to George Bush and European tourists, the cost of domestic US travel is expected to increase above inflation in 2007. Bush is at fault for devaluing the US dollar because of the Iraq war and tax cuts for the wealthy. With the US dollar down, it is cheaper for Europeans to visit the US.
More Europeans are expected […]

The Joys of Christmas Debt

Ho Ho Ho! Tis’ the season of celebration, goodwill and mass consumerism. The malls are filled with a shopping frenzy and it is reported that more people are buying just as many presents for themselves than for others.

We […]

Can We Get Some Impeachment Proceedings Please?

Today, George Bush said that extremists and radicals “can’t run us out of the Middle East.” The President seems to be leaning towards John McCain’s dangerous idea to increase troop levels. This despite the advice of the Iraq study group and military leaders.
Clearly, George Bush is incompetent, that is not hard to figure out and should […]

What’s With All The Food Poisoning?

  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 In the last few weeks we’ve seen two major restaurant chains make a lot of people sick. First it was Taco Bell, that’s not a huge surprise, they use Grade D meat. But Olive Garden? It’s nicer and corporate, so it’s super controlled. 
These things happen but it’s curious that the Indianapolis Olive Garden made 300 people […]

The Barney Christmas Saga Continues

Over the past several years, the White House has done a Barney Christmas video for the holidays. George Bush has said he will wait until January to make any changes with regards to Iraq. Obviously, he doesn’t want to deal with it right now, shit, it’s Christmas man!
But Bush and company had time to […]

Economy Plus?

Yes, Northwest Airlines offers convenient service to Minneapolis-Saint Paul, whether you like it or not. It, like several other airlines, has started charging extra for window seats. It’s called economy plus or as we like to call it, a total crock of shit.
When you do express check in and have already been assigned an aisle seat, if you […]
