Indecent Interval
Back in the early 1970s, the nation was embroiled in a very unpopular war in Vietnam. Additionally, a third rate burglary at a Washington building forever changed American politics and political reporting by mandating the attachment of the suffix "gate" … Continue reading

Walkover
Ethiopian forces are stomping the islamists in Somalia so badly that they are now hoping for a completely bloodless entry into Mogadishu. The islamist forces are either disintegrating or dying – sometimes both – at an astonishing pace. Government spokesman Abdirahman … Continue reading

Terrifying News
The Washington Post reports some terrifying news. The FDA is set to issue approval for cloned animals to be used as food. Now they have done this after extremely rigorous testing. They actually followed honest-to-goodness, real science. That's just plain … Continue reading
