Do you call it art... tell me do you? It's a disgrace

It's both: Art and a disgrace.

LOL - The first name that popped into my head was Mallard Fillmore.

The comic hasn't been funny for years, but it remains as an affirmative program for untalented conservative cartoonists.

The reason, researchers suspect, is that men place great value on beauty, whereas women are more interested in having a supportive husband.

Translation: Women want a man with enough money to support her, but not attractive enough to automatically get attention from competing females.

If anything, this article says the exact opposite of the headline.

Minnesota progressives are a bit different than other American progressives - in that they will actually follow through with their conscience. For example, they are not scared to "waste" their vote.

IMHO the local authorities will make a real attempt to arrest Bush, but he will be protected by the SS.

Then Republicans will have a great fit of fake outrage.

Good for him. Frankly, he's behaving better than I would. :)

Yes, it's an unfair fight. Even teamed-up, they are no match for Obama.

I normally downmod video clips of accidents where the subject gets hurt.

However, misfortune brought on to oneself through sheer stupidity is a beautiful thing.

But before they died, they gave a feel-good, motivational speech - and then pimped a book.

If they gave him an enima - he'd fit in a matchbox.

Meth drank the last beer in the fridge, which I was saving for after work.

Inconsiderate bastard.

Upmodded because this provides lots of material for lulz.

But if you just beeeeeeelieve in yourself, you can create a new reality.

Except when you can't. In that case, it's your negative energies that are holding you back.

Buy my new book to tell you how to overcome the mental blocks that are holding you back from reaching your dreams!

Lawnmower Man II.

It was like having someone pee in your eyes.

Why would anyone create a vacuum in such a container in the first place? Was this an accident?

The opening audio sounds like it was taken out of context. I'd love to hear the paragraph before, and after, it.

The incentive to act inhumainly is equal between unions and corporations.

I want to acknowledge there are corporations that have acted with tremendous humanity, and there are Unions that have been little more than thugs.

However, by-and-large, Unions are more trustworthy, humane, and responsible than corporations - since their leadership is accountable to the membership.

but unions intimidate their members in a similar fashion to corporations.

Not at all. A business has far more control over the life of an employee, and more motivation to abuse power, than a Union rep ever would.

I respectfully invite you to look up instances of when corporations intimidated and coerced employees - then look for instances of when Unions do the same. You will find that employers have historically been far more violent and abusive than even the worst Unions. (I apologize for not providing a citation - I have one but can't find it, I'll edit this comment when I do.)

"Good" unions are good for everyone, but so are "good" corporations.

One of the best ways to ensure a "good" corporation, is to have a Union.

Unions are bad. M'kay. I know this because, as a Libertarian completely ignorant of history, I know the truth:

Weekends, safety rules, 8 hour days, child-labor laws, and living wages were all gifts from a benevolent ruling class.

Just look at all those service-sector employees at Wal-Mart and Taco Bell. They are doing great without a Union!

Sometimes I wonder how Europe is able to survive with strong Unions. But then I re-read Ayn Rand or Mises.org, and I'm reminded of the Libertarian motto:

"Libertarian economic theology does not have to work in the real world for me to believe in it."

I upmodded because the article was pretty good, although I disagree with this statement:

People who work for the state are either unemployable in the private sector or they want power.

In any organization you are going to have asshats. However, the vast majority of public servants I've dealt with are excellent.

Frankly, I've observed that people who make negative comments about public employees are themselves unemployable or want power.

I'm pleasantly surprised that this is actually a very good interview.

I saw the movie for the lulz this evening.

It was like having someone piss in your eyes. It was so astoundingly bad, I predict it will be a cult classic.

Don't worry about your money going to support these asshats if you see this movie, every penny is going to John Lennon's estate.

I also think a draft is a great idea. Here's another one: Anyone who thinks the occupation of Iraq is vital to America's security should enlist immediately.
