I think this is just reprehensible and shows how two-faced politicians are:

Cuz we're all brown at the airport

My Name is Osama

Maybe it's because of my name, or maybe it's because sometimes I wear a cap on my head, but people always ask me if i'm a terrorist!

A Terrorist?! I'm not a terrorist! I'm a boy who is very good at science. Someday, I'm going to be a U.S. Supreme Court judge.


Read all about it.

Ouch

The whole concept of genital mutilation doesn't make sense to me. I understand cultures have their own edicts such as arranged marriages and such but to physically circumsize a woman so she cannot feel pleasure doesn't make sense. Though I tend towards sexual egalitarianism, I realize the truth is that most men could never physically and emotionally carry a child just the same that men tend to be physically stronger. That being said, male dominated societies are a way of life for the majority of the world. It just baffles me that somehow, certain cultures took the piety above all else posturing for women to mean that women should never experience sexual pleasure.

Obviously for sheer procreation purposes it makes sense that a guy should nut faster and a women's orgasm takes longer. However, that should not be a carte blanche to eradicate their sensitivity in the name of chastity and honor. Hell, most of the dudes that support female mutilation probably never even work the clit as it is. Either way, I'm all for to each his own, but what about to each HER own.

This made me wanna watch V for Vendetta so bad yesterday

WASHINGTON (AP) —Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, aided by an extraordinary outpouring of Internet support Monday, hauled in more than $4.2 million in nearly 24 hours.

Paul, the Texas congressman with a libertarian tilt and an out-of-Iraq pitch, entered heady fundraising territory with a surge of Web-based giving tied to the commemoration of Guy Fawkes Day.

Fawkes was a British mercenary who failed in his attempt to kill King James I on Nov. 5, 1605. He also was the model for the protagonist in the movie "V for Vendetta." Paul backers motivated donors on the Internet with mashed-up clips of the film on the online video site YouTube as well as the Guy Fawkes Day refrain: "Remember, remember the 5th of November."

Paul's total deposed Mitt Romney as the single-day fundraising record holder in the Republican presidential field. When it comes to sums amassed in one day, Paul now ranks only behind Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton, who raised nearly $6.2 million on June 30, and Barack Obama.

Paul spokesman Jesse Benton said the effort began independently about two months ago at the hands of Paul's backers. He said Paul picked up on the movement, mentioning in it speeches and interviews.

"It's been kind of building up virally," Benton said.

The $4.2 million represented online contributions from more than 37,000 donors, fundraising director Jonathan Bydlak said Monday night.

Paul has been lagging in the polls behind Republican front-runners. But he captured national attention at the end of September when he reported raising $5.2 million in three months, putting him fourth among Republican presidential candidates in fundraising for the quarter.

Paul as of Monday had raised more than $7 million since Oct. 1, more than half his goal of $12 million by the end of the year, according to his Web site.

Paul advocates limited government and low taxes like other Republicans, but he stands alone as the only GOP presidential candidate opposed to the Iraq war. He also has opposed Bush administration security measures that he says encroach on civil liberties.

Mr. DNA is racist

The Nobel Peace Prize winner for describing the double helix model of DNA as well as the head of the Human Genome Project, James D. Watson, was forced into retirement last week after he made comments alluding to a belief that people of African descent were less intelligent than those of European descent.

Now the whole taking-things-out-of-context argument can be leveraged but it is slightly disconcerting that the man who ran the program that is responsible for mapping the code of all life has, if only tinges of, these beliefs. He argues that people of differing geographical locations can't be expected to develop the same which I understand but to then make the jump to the fact that intelligence is one of those differences is kind of shady in my book.
