Media Genius Asks If Tentative Security Agreement with Iraq is Unprecedented
Good to know these morons are shoveling news down America’s collective throat. Yes, genius, we’ve never had a bi-lateral security agreement post-war.

N.O.W. Not Taking Position on Gibbons
28. November 2007
You’d think that an organization so worried about women would actually take a position on a woman who could receive 40 lashes for allowing students to name a teddy bear. You and I would be wrong. In the U.S., a spokeswoman for the National Organization for Women said the situation “is definitely on the radar, [...]

28. November 2007
She’s been charged with insulting Islam and “inciting hatred”…for allowing kids to name a teddy bear “Muhammad”.

7-Year-Old Tries to Defend Teddy Bear Teacher
27. November 2007
Simultaneously emphasizing something I don’t quite understand. Creating an image of Muhammad is apparently an insult to Islam, correct? Therefore naming a teddy bear after Islam’s prophet is considered an insult. So then why isn’t naming children the same way just as insulting? A 7-year-old Sudanese student on Tuesday defended the British teacher accused of [...]

So, I’m watching CNN’s coverage of Annapolis, and they go to a segment on tomorrow night’s YouTube debate for Republicans, which I’ll be liveblogging here. Sure enough, that freakin talking snowman is back and talking about global warming. His question, if the video is picked: This question is for Fred Thompson. You’ve made it clear [...]
