Flying Pigs

For the ex-Vice President who could call you an unpatriotic piece of terrorist liberal shit without breaking a sweat, Dick Cheney has been on the speaking circuit recently and lo and behold, hell has frozen over:

Cheney essentially admits that our original pretense for the Iraq War was false: "I do not believe and have never seen any evidence to confirm that [Hussein] was involved in 9/11."

Now if that wasn't weird enough, in the SAME speech he actually throws his support to gay marriage:

"I think, you know, freedom means freedom for everyone," Cheney said in a speech at the National Press Club. "I think people ought to be free to enter into any kind of union they wish, any kind of arrangement they wish."

Cheney, whose daughter is gay, thinks it should be a state issue.

CHINA - NY Times states that in efforts to flout the Communist Party's draconian internet censorship, thousands of Chinese from "serious scholars to usually politically apathetic urban white-collar workers" have been perpetuating the legend of a mythic creature, the grass mud horse [as depicted in the cartoon above]. The conundrum is that when phonetically said in Chinese, grass mud horse sounds very similar to the Chinese idiom for "FUCK YOUR MOTHER."

ALBANY NY - The NY legislature is set to repeal the remaining vestiges of the 70's era Rockefeller drug laws that forces mandatory sentences for drug offenses and replaces it with treatment options without need for the prosecutor's consent.

WASHINGTON DC - Billy Corgan erased all validity from my emo years as he threw the memory of Melancholy and Infinite Sadness down the fuckin drain when he came out in support of the proposed Ticketmaster/Live Nation merger. Other notable performers that publicly supported this raping were: Eddie Van Halen, Seal, and Journey......and as musically.com interestingly reveals: all these performers, including Corgan, are "managed or co-managed by Front Line Management, whose boss Irving Azoff is also CEO of… Ticketmaster." I guess being married to Heidi Klum doesn't mean you think for yourself.

How can you have any meat, if you don't eat your pudding?

We all know about the $400K retreat for AIG execs right after they received their fuckin BAILOUT.

On their way to grovel for their own BAILOUT, the CEO’s of GM, Ford, and Chrysler flew to Washington in private luxury jets. The GM CEO Rick Wagoner flew in on a jet that reportedly cost $36 million. (One of eight luxury jets in financially strapped GM’s fleet.)

I get that you have to break some eggs to make an omelet but at least pretend to understand that times are tough when you're asking for corporate welfare and fly commercial you fucks. No wonder my rice rocket does so much better than your shitty lemons.

Here's my revised business plan for Detroit: MAKE CARS THAT LAST LONGER THAN 3 YEARS.
