A Mexican comic was pulled from the shelves of a Texas Wal-Mart after a customer complained.

Sometimes I am so fucking naïve, I surprise even myself. On the Fourth of July I went and saw WALL-E, thought it was a cute movie, with a good message that pollution is bad, and had no idea it would precipitate a right wing meltdown. The story is about an earth that has become so polluted there is no longer any life, until a little trash compacting bot falls in love with a girl bot, discovers a

Whether they are carelessly endangering our youth by shipping lead filled toys across the world, enabling a genocide in Sudan, purposely devaluing the Dollar to damage the global economy, or mercilessly oppressing Tibetans and Chinese Christians, there is no shortage of outrage against the Communist Chinese regime… except from the spineless cowards we in the [...]

I know that until relatively recently in human history, people tended to work 12-hour days at a minimum, six or seven days a week; and that in some occupations, like farming, that kind of schedule is still virtually required.

We first wrote about Megan last Monday. The reactions to the story were those of disgust, horror, anger, and outrage. Outrage over the death of Megan Meiers, a girl targeted by vicious adults. Outrage at the perpetrators of the hoax. Outrage that no charges have been filed. Lastly, outrage at the paper who broke the story, the Suburban Journals' decision to not identify the hoaxers. The names of the "alleged" hoaxers have been outed by bloggers. MySpace Cruel Prank Leads To Teen's SuicideA cruel and unbelievably vicious prank perpetrated upon a young girl has stripped away the Leave To Beaver veneer of a suburban St. Louis neighborhood. A fourteen year old girl is dead by her own hand, her parents shattered and in disbelief. There will never be justice for their precious daughter. Fourteen years old, Megan was a victim of a cruel hoax on MySpace. The end result of the hoax, Megan is dead by her own hand, the hoaxer exposed as parents of a former friend of Megan's.

As Pakistan rapidly descends into chaos, the FBI is reaching out to an American branch of one of the most noxious Islamist elements in Pakistan, the Tanzeem-e-Islami. Top officials from Detroit's FBI Field office spoke at a gathering in a Warren, Michigan mosque to talk about the dangers of extremism in every religion. Apparently, the FBI agents were unaware that at that very moment, they were speaking to an extremist organization. Here's an excerpt from an article I wrote on the Investigative Project...(read more)

Following the recent U.S. District Court ruling barring Independents from voting in Libertarian primaries, the Arizona Libertarian Party (ALP) braced for an onslaught of angry Independent voters. That barrage never came. Now, a few weeks later, the sense of defiance has turned to a feeling of regret.“I am not going to lie,” said Michael Kielsky, Chairman of the Arizona Libertarian Party, “I was a little bummed when the phone didn’t start ringing off the hook. I saw this as a way to tell some people about our libertarian principles, but no one seems to care.”“It sort of feels like we threw a party and nobody came,” lamented David B. Schlosser,ALP’s Secretary, “I thought we would have a wave of people changing their voter registration or calling us begging to allow them to vote in our primary. I even picked up the phone a few times to check the dial tone to make sure the thing was working.”According to the Secretary of State’s most recent voter counts, there are ab

Bernard Kouchner, the French Foreign Minister, while criticizing the Iranian nuclear program in an interview, stated that the world should prepare for a possible war with Tehran. Although he added that diplomatic solution should be pursued, the statement was, not surprisingly, badly received in Iranian media and political circles.The statement is widely seen as another part of President Sarkozy new foreign policy initiative, intended to reassert France as one of the mayor players in the arena of international politics.

I found a lot of blogs that mentioned the recalls, but few that really railed against China, Mattel, or greed for it.

Spree has cross posted at Faultline USA by request of the Tanker Brothers a post that is not a record of U.S. abuses at Abu Ghraib, or its daily Pol Pot activities or it's John "JFKnot" Kerry door kicking in tactics.No, this is one of those mundane stories that involves the minor details the media feels not worthy of following up on or continuing after an initial report; after all as nasty and sad as it is, it belies a positive note that may be misconstrued as an indication of anything not negative coming out of Iraq. The story itself is not uplifting, but the U.S. presence in Iraq made the revelation.The Tanker Brothers have made it their mission. Babies...mind you...oh, yeah that's right we've killed babies....our soldiers are baby killers too, right? No; not specific to the mission and not WMD related, but an unfortunate indicator to those that see our nation as evil, warmongering imperialists are wrong. Wrong because those of our numbers that represent us in Iraq and elsewh

Who’d a thought it?Pat Buchanan and Rosie O'Donnell are in agreement.They both think that mealy mouth Rudy Guiliani took a cheap shot at Ron Paul to make political hay in the Republican Presidential Debate earlier this week.It came about because Representative Paul made the point that American policy in the Middle East was partially responsible for the attacks on 9-11.Guiliani, citing his expertise, which consists of being the mayor of the target city on September 11, called for Paul to withdraw the traitorous statement and explain what he meant.Following the debate, as a GOP strategist was demanding Paul be barred from future debates, Sean Hannity was shocked to see results showing Paul winning the debate with the viewing public. Regardless, FOX News and much of the Republican mainstream continue to be seriously outraged.What Sean, the GOP strategist, and a lot of Republicans don't realize, is the world is not as simple as a John Wayne Western. There are good guys and bad guys, b

Looks like Channel 4 are in trouble yet again, this time by airing Virgin School, a program that follow a 26 year old guy who wants to lose his virginity, so joins a sex school in Amsterdam. In the show, views saw 26 year old James lose his virginity to sex therapist Bridget, whom James said he saw more as a friend; viewers also saw James being masturbated. However, media pressure group Mediawatch UK had now branded the show juvenile and offensive, and the pressure group’s director John Beyer said, “It beggars belief. It’s yet another example of them trying to attract viewers with a programme about sex. It is really time that Channel 4 grew up. They are so caught up in their own importance that they really can’t see beyond their own quest for sensationalism and controversy.” In response a Channel 4 spokesperson answered, “Virgin School is a sensitive documentary that follows one young man’s effort to overcome a major obstacle in his life.

Reprinted on tsard Found post about it here. Starbucks coffee cup quote #247 Why in moments of crisis do we ask God for strength and help? As cognitive beings, why would we ask something that may well be a figment of our imagination for guidance? Why not search inside ourselves [and our blogs] for the power to overcome? After all, we are strong enough to cause the castastrophe we need to endure. by Bill S. from Canada A woman was outraged because of this quote on a coffee cup. I will never ever understand why some people just can not handle open debate when it comes to the existence of God and other religious topics. Why is it so hard for some people to be able to even contemplate for one second of time that they could be wrong about the universe and God? I have come to my beliefs after 50 years of serious, and not so serious, discussion, contemplation, experience and soul searching - these beliefs are mine and mine alone and I feel NO urge what so ever to shove them down any one'

Debbie Schlussel article link Debbie Schlussel: OUTRAGE: Rosie O'Donnell Feels Bad for 9/11 Mastermind Khalid Sheikh MohammedBy Debbie Schlussel**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****This is the last straw. If Barbara Walters doesn't fire Rosie O'Donnell from "The View" over comments O'Donnell made on today's episode, then she never will.Today, O'Donnell said she feels bad for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM). She doesn't believe he's responsible for anything in 9/11 or any of the 30-plus plots which he volunteered to American authorities. Among the worst of her comments, O'Donnell derided airhead pseudo-conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck (who is ZERO match for O'Donnell on the intellectual scale) for calling KSM a "terrorist," saying, "So, calling him a terrorist robs him of all of his humanity?" WHAT?!!!!! This man planned the 9/11 attacks that murdered 3,000 Americans. And Rosie O'Donnell is worried we will "rob him of all humanity" because we

Where were all these environmental activists and "outraged" foreign nations for the past 13 years? Why didn't they pressure the Liberals to actually make some progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions? Why get all angry at the Conservatives for admitting that the situation has gone too far and the Kyoto targets can't be met?The answer is simple: the Left has turned Kyoto into an untouchable idol. Anyone who dares question its effectiveness or fairness is immediately labelled ignorant, uninformed, or worse yet, a pawn of the oil industry. They fail to realize that Kyoto is just a bunch of numbers that people agreed on over a decade ago. (Numbers that favour certain countries, such as those in Eastern Europe that are now ridiculously under their Kyoto targets.) It's not a comprehensive plan for action.China and the Group of 77 developing countries have also lodged a formal complaint against Canada and a handful of other nations for failing to file progress reports that were requir

Moved to the Top for a few hours, and updated. Friday's funnies are below The following article is what it is. Found in a newspaper on line. Thus my rant on this crap.The cleric's comments are disgusting in nature to me and as far as I am concerned. The b.s. about allowing these creeps into our world is unthinkable. This mindset is not changing. It is, however poisoning our way of life. In my opinion if this is a hate crime against women and should not be tolorated in any form. Its okay for them to murder and threaten anyone that says any thing about Mohammad. The Main Stream Media always gives them a pass. Hell CNN gives them great press all int he name of divercity and political correctness. You want to be p.c. then stop these mad men from spreading hate. Shut them up as you would a Christian leader. Show them for what they are. Not one beetle brained politician would hesitate to disavow this tripe about women coming from a Christian leader. Not one female news maker is talking abo

By ripping off its customers while the corrupt politicians turn a blind eye or worse yet, accept bribes--which is more likely.WARNING: This story will make you sick.Denies Rights To Gay Workers, Exxon Posts Biggest Corporate Profit In US Historyby 365Gay.com Newscenter Staff Posted: February 1, 2007 - 9:00 pm ET (New York City) ExxonMobil the only major U.S. company to rescind a non-discrimination policy covering sexual orientation on Thursday posted the largest annual profit by a U.S. company - $39.5 billion. The 2006 profit topped Exxon Mobil's own previous record of $36.13 billion set in 2005. But for the past seven years the company has thwarted efforts to reinstate sexuality in its written nonbias policies. Last May shareholders at ExxonMobil's annual meeting have voted down a proposal to include LGBT workers in the company'

While journalists howl at the indignity of Helen Thomas being moved about six feet, from the first row to the second row of the new White House press room, there’s been relative silence about the Cuban dictatorship’s expulsion of Western journalists who published stories unflattering to the communist leadership. Today’s Investor’s Business Daily says the expulsion of the Chicago Tribune’s Gary Marx, the BBC’s Stephen Gibbs and Mexico’s El Universal reporter Cesar Gonzalez-Calero “was a minor story, but shouldn’t be.” With these three paying a penalty for reporting the uncomfortable truths about Castro’s dying dictatorship, IBD correctly asks “why the remaining correspondents inside Cuba aren’t red-faced about not being thrown out.” Here’s an excerpt from their Wednesday editorial, the complete version of which can be found at www.IBDEditorials.com: Marx (Gary, that is) wrote of the disillusionment of Cuba's youth with communism, fakery at Castro's
