Panic of the Plutocrats – NYTimes.com

“What’s going on here? The answer, surely, is that Wall Street’s Masters of the Universe realize, deep down, how morally indefensible their position is. They’re not John Galt; they’re not even Steve Jobs. They’re people who got rich by peddling complex financial schemes that, far from delivering clear benefits to the American people, helped push us into a crisis whose aftereffects continue to blight the lives of tens of millions of their fellow citizens.”

Tea Party vs the Anti-Christ

Tea Party spokesman and terrible singer/songwriter Lloyd Marcus says that the Tea Party is fighting against the Anti-Christ himself. Without beating around the bush, I believe the battle being fought in America today goes beyond politics; right vs lef… [...]

Thatcher Meet With Palin? Not So Fast

This is rather comical to me. Last weekend Sarah Palin told a British reporter that she was going to England soon and she hoped Margaret Thatcher would be feeling up to meeting with her: “I am going to Sudan in July and hope to stop in England on the … [...]

The Hidden Side of Steven Levitt

I’ve never read Freakonomics, but I know many people who praise it. But this bit of thinking, now a month old but unnoticed by me until this week, doesn’t exactly recommend Steven Levitt as being a sound thinker. In it, he proposes a rather simple stan… [...]

Badass Quote of the Day

From Matt Welch in Reason: More than 800,000 people are still arrested each year for marijuana alone, despite the widespread misconception that pot has been largely decriminalized, and despite the fact that close to half of all Americans by now have s… [...]

Iranian Soccer Team Banned Over Headscarves

The Iranian women’s soccer team was disqualified from an Olympics qualifying match in Jordan because the women were wearing traditional Islamic headscarves. And it was done by a FIFA referee from Bahrain, another Islamic country. In April 2010 FIFA a… [...]

Miami Police Destroy Cell Phone Camera

The War on Police Accountability continues apace. In Miami Beach the police surrounded a car and opened fire on the occupants, hitting four innocent bystanders in the process.. A man in a nearby car recorded it on his cell phone, prompting the police t… [...]

Perry to Headline ‘Apolitical’ Prayer Event

Texas Gov. Rick Perry is going to headline an AFA-sponsored prayer event called The Response at Reliant Stadium in Houston on August 6. And I’m amused that they insist on calling the event “apolitical.” The Response is a non-denominal, apolitical Chri… [...]

Stupid Creationist Screed of the Day

Did you know that Satan invented the theory of evolution? Here’s an amusing screed from a clueless dolt who rants ignorantly about evolution and Satan for nearly 10 minutes. Read the rest of this post… | Read the comments on this post… [...]
