OK, OK, so what's the moral here?

Harvard studies
Your tax dollars at work: "In one experiment, children were read simple statements and a question: "Sarah has 64 candies. She gives 13 of them away. John has 34 candies. Who has more?" By the way, what's "symbolic arithmetic"?
Mitt on Hill
Her view is the old, classic, European caricature that we describe of big government, big taxation, welfare state... She gave a speech a couple of days ago and laid out her vision for America. And as I listened to her I figured her platform wouldn't even get her elected in France.
Ah, but she'll be a smashing hit in Nawlins. It's what they want down there, non?

Hanson and Pepe in parallel
[... No] one nation is easier to terrify than americans and there is good money to be made by playing the "razor in apples at halloween/african killer bees" string. Pepe says that here. Actually, AI, I remember you smugly chortling with other foreign-born members of your department at chickenshit pantywaist yellowbelly Americans afraid to fly. Why the change of, uh, pants (to paraphrase Pepe)?
Italian trash
So it remains to be seen whether Naples is ready to overcome its trash crisis, whether politicians can agree on where new dumps and incinerators should be located. Shipping it abroad does not seem an option: Romania, one of the few possibilities, recently said it would not take Italy's trash.
Good try, but thanks, and no thanks

whodat?
They hope his name recognition as an actor and radio commentator, conservative stands on issues like immigration and government spending, and strength in the South will differentiate him from the current crop of candidates.
name recognition? who the fuck is this guy?

The Joys of Pessimism (note: Oprah still sucks)
Thaddeus, a farming consultant from Minnesota, writes that American farmers are congenital gloomy Guses, constantly wringing their hands over weather, blight, and commodity prices. "The result of all this negative thinking," Thaddeus writes, "is the most stable, secure and inexpensive food supply in the history of the world. Farmers worry about dry weather, so they install irrigation systems. They worry about wet weather, so they install tile lines to drain their fields. They worry about diseases, so they vaccinate their cattle and spray fungicides on their crops. They worry about cold winters, so they cut hay and silage for their livestock."
JJ, watch where you're driving!
Actually, I've never seen JJ driving (does he even have a driver's license?), but it sort of sounds like him, especially when he's talking over the cell phone. And, while at it, is the Beetle a JJ car, or what?
Phudniks and Cacademics
A priest, a rabbi, and a minister walk into a bar. Bartender says, ‘What is this, a joke?’
What do you do with an asshole like that?
The man told the Journal-Constitution he was in Rome during his honeymoon when the CDC notified him of the new tests and told him to turn himself in to Italian authorities to be isolated and be treated. The CDC told him he couldn't fly aboard commercial airliners.
"I thought to myself: You're nuts. I wasn't going to do that. They told me I had been put on the no-fly list and my passport was flagged," the man said.
He told the newspaper he and his wife decided to sneak back into the U.S. through Canada. He said he voluntarily went to a New York hospital, then was flown by the CDC to Atlanta.
He is not facing prosecution, health officials said. [huh????-JJ]
"I'm a very well-educated, successful, intelligent person," he told the paper. "This is insane to me that I have an armed guard outside my door when I've cooperated with everything other than the whole solitary-confinement-in-Italy thing."

You're Doing a Great Job, Pepe!...
...but more seriously if my office turns into this, I'm going back to residential and heavy construction.

Pandora's box continues to provide
AI referred in another post to the US war machine as "pros". Good thing it isn't a bunch of clowns running the show instead, otherwise you might have a situation spinning out of control.
outmoded, amateurish and unreliable
The psychologists and other specialists, commissioned by the Intelligence Science Board, make the case that more than five years after the Sept. 11 attacks, the Bush administration has yet to create an elite corps of interrogators trained to glean secrets from terrorism suspects.
At the bitter end
The slaughter and rapine that awaited the surviving citizens of the city need not be dwelt on at length. It was unspeakable. Children raped on Christian altars; women and elderly impaled; blood running on the streets; St. Sophia a great bloodbath, then a mosque. Legend holds that several priests vanished into the very walls of the church, to return when Constantinople is liberated from the yoke of the Mohammedan. Untold Greeks were captured and clasped in fetters, the maidens and attractive boys destined for Turkish harems, the strong boys for the barracks of the Janissaries, to repeat the conquest of other Christians in other lands; and the Orthodox Church itself was seized into a captivity under which much of it toils to this day. [...] The city was vanquished and violated. He established the Greeks under the standard dhimma contract, Islam's system of official subjugation and humiliation: a kind of Jim Crow for infidels.
Aahhh, the stuff of legend on Planet Pepe.

"This is not a call for negotiations. We do not negotiate with baby killers and war criminals like you," said Gadahn. "You will go down in history not only as the president who embroiled his nation in a series of unwinnable and bloody conflicts in the Islamic world but as the president who set the United States up on its death march."

The Venezuelan Government has also filed charges against local network Globovision for what it says was indirectly encouraging Mr Chavez's murder by airing footage of the 1981 assassination attempt on late pope John Paul II.
Freedom, pinko-style
With the heterosexual males, if they identify themselves as that at the door, or indeed we question their behaviour in the venue and if they come across as being heterosexual, then we will simply ask them to leave if the behaviour is unappropriate.

Iran should not trust the Americans. Americans have reverted to Lies , deceit, and abuse of human rights of prisoners of war and civilians, Iran should make sure the freedom fighters of Iraq are well supported.

Let's not forget who caused the mess in Iraq. The same country that's dropped two atom bombs, bombed 19 nations since WW2, exercises torture at illegal prisons etc etc. should I go on?

Able Danger vs Capital Incompetence
Pepe's Dem Boyz can never be too quick in blocking or shutting down something that actually works well....But then neither can the Bushies..
just a reminder of how fucked up our government idiots have been on questions of deep natural security for a very long time

The California Democrat [Pelosi] pointed to her delegation's weekend stop in Greenland, "where we saw firsthand evidence that climate change is a reality; there is just no denying it.""It wasn't caused by the people of Greenland — it was caused by the behavior of the rest of the world," she said.
