The next one, the Scrat gets a girlfriend. Couldn't happen to a more deserving rodent.

Fuck the Middle East, the damage he's done right here at home is a hanging offense.

Funny how people SAY he's busting the Bill of Rights, but can't SHOW any actual instance of American citizens' rights being trammeled over the last two Presidential terms. They can't name an American citizen languishing in jail on GWB's say-so. With homework, they could probably name some POWs we've got caged. Fifty of the POWs released since their capture on the field of battle, incidentally, are back at shooting at American, that is humanity's, forces again. Poor bargain, eh?

So no, I do not subscribe to this left-wing shibboleth. If you've a lick of sense, do the same.

No hanging is called for, not by the knowledgeable. Only by the left-herdthink dildoes.

You know what a dildo is, right? It's a dick. A fake dick. A fake plastic dick with no balls. Leftists are why I'm not a leftist. I'm just not convinced they can achieve a coherent thought that is also grounded in the real.

Strike two. Try the economy, debt, and environment.

[temporary]Ali, you have to see the Broadway version of Lion King. I saw a touring show in Columbus. It was absolutely one of the most stunning things I've ever seen. And I've seen a few things. That is all.[/hijack]

I'll be so glad when our nation is utterly bankrupt, our young people are dead or maimed, and those pesky Middle Easterners are finally put in their place once and for all. Soon, they shall see the error of their ways. Look at all the other successes we've had forcing Democracy and stability on all those other radical nations out there.

Yup, gonna be great.

Snowing in Vegas...

The heaviest Arctic blast in nearly three decades has coated the normally sunny city.

Darryl and Maria Roberts' children, ages 8, 10 and 16, were ecstatic to build their first snowman. "They had never seen snow," said their father, who contributed a video to iReport of the kids playing. "They made snow angels for a couple of hours."

Yeah, same here Merc. We had a cold front come through a few days ago and it actually froze overnight once--but this morning it's already 75 (and muggy as hell.)
