Conservatives Revel In America’s Olympic Defeat | TPM LiveWire.

American Conservatism at it’s best.

Wasn’t it a couple of years ago they HATED people who (in their fevered minds) put the US down?

Let them Eat carcinogens – Dow-sponsored Walleye Fest to donate contaminated fish to the poor

Posted in Watching the elephant on April 22, 2009 by solenadon

Michigan Messenger » Dow-sponsored Walleye Fest to donate contaminated fish to the poor.

This appears to be a way to replace the superfund.   Let wildlife soak up the toxins your company put into the environment, hold a public relations fishing derby, and donate the contaminated fish to the poor. 

Possibly shortening their lifespans, thus reducing their requirement for Medicare and Medicaid.

Yes, yes…I’m extrapolatng quite a bit at the end there.

According to Anthony Watts Global Warming isn’t happening because of badly placed weather stations.

I guess if we can just find some distractingly placed financial institutions our current Recession would just go away.

An Evil Bitch

Posted in Venomous mammals on February 17, 2009 by solenadon

This came out a few weeks ago, but it is well worth pointing out again.

This woman is evil.

Having women raped, then recruiting them as suicide bombers so as to redeem their honour.

Humanity’s capacity for evil can really bring one down.

So, Where are they going to go?

FT.com / Companies / Financials – Stimulus bill extends cap on bank bonuses.

Apparently, bankers want to have bailout money without strings attached.  The following line is amusing:

Bankers argued that the amendment, introduced by Chris Dodd, a Democratic senator from Connecticut, would cause a brain drain from the industry and could have the counterproductive effect of raising cash salaries.

Earth to bankers, where are you going to go?  You helped make this mess.

Do you think that having Lehman Brothers on your resume is a selling point?

Late – but what the hell.

How appropriate.  Plumbing the depths of inanity.

Let’s hope he put the Republicans where they deserve to be.

In the trashbin of history.
