Enjoy! Let’s start with the depressing: Afghanistan General Stanley McCrystal sees no indication of an al-Qaeda presence in Afghanistan. So, could we maybe, GTFO or is killing brown people too much fun? Sheldon Richman of the Foundation for Economic Education discusses some of the problems with raising tariffs on cheap Chinese tires. I liked this [...]
After oral surgery yesterday (which went swimmingly. Thank you, nitrous!), I’m finally getting back into the swing of things today. Like always, enjoy! In response to the “no one should have to go broke because they get sick” Facebook meme, a bunch of conservatives and libertarians started with a “no one should have to go [...]
Enjoy! To kick things off, go visit Lauren at Oh Dear Lauren.com, a collection of open letters she’s written to various individuals, entities, random objects, and body parts. Arkansas Fire Chief Don Payne launches into a long overdue tirade about police abuse of power while fighting multiple traffic tickets in court. The police response? Shooting [...]

Don’t bother going to law school, as there’s a good chance you won’t be able to get [...]

Enjoy! A Michigan woman is suing a judge for forcing her to remove her hat hijab in court. According to the 3rd Circuit court, “Judge Callahan and the court have the greatest respect for spiritual practices and all religious preferences.” Maybe I’ll test this by getting into his courtroom and refusing to swear on a [...]
Enjoy! A Malaysian model has been sentenced to a caning for drinking a beer at her Singapore hotel. The law prevents Muslims from drinking alcohol. Yay for religion! Holy shit: a cop was actual fired for being a douchebag. Don’t worry, no one was tased and no dogs were shot: they simply asked a waitress [...]
