And also, Mr. Al-Assad, notice what is happening to "big man" dictators these days. Either the US Military drags you out of a spider hole and your countrymen put you on trial and hang you, or NATO bombs your ass until somebody with a gun is close enough to punch your ticket. You have gone out of style and you're next on the list.

I love the highbrow "hate-filled pustule" (excellent word choice)
combined with the earthy honesty of "Time's up, motherf8888er."

I'd like to see you after class.

Yeah. Celebrating a death is unbecoming, but this is good news.

They captured him, but he did not survive in custody. Believe what you want, but those are the kind of people we just put in charge.

Strawberry Queen

No more sauce on the run
