"If there's a blue pill and a red pill, and the blue pill is half the price of the red pill and works just as well, why not pay half price for the thing that's going to make you well?" -- President Obama

I detest anti-Americanism, but I’ll concede this: Fifty-nine journalists have been killed around the world so far this year, in an alarming rise from 2008 that has become a "bloodbath" of the media, a watchdog said Thursday.I thought we were supposed to start with the lawyers....
.At least two Afghan villages have been blanketed with leaflets warning that if an American soldier kidnapped by the Taliban two weeks ago isn't freed, "you will be targeted."
Villagers near the border of two volatile provinces, Ghazni and Paktika, tell CBS News' Sami Yousafzai that aircraft dropped the leaflets during the past several days
Judgess Sotomayor says “eminent” when she means “imminent,” “providence” instead of “province,” “story of knowledge” instead of “store of knowledge,” and so on. Does the fact that she is a Latina immunize her from attention to that sort of (admittedly not uncommon) foible?
To answer Whelan's question: These malapropisms would only be noteworthy and revealing if they were spoken by a certain country bumpkin Republican governor of Alaska. When a wise Latina accidentally says "vagrancies of ... the moment" instead of "vagaries of ... the moment"during the oral argument of the Ricci case, we're supposed to ignore the slip-up, as the Wall Street Journal did, but make sure to inform readers that they should be impressed by the fact that "The Catholic-school-educated [but classics denied] la judgessa clearly knew the Latin plural of 'forum.'"
But enough about her errors of diction. I wouldn't want to get Sotomayor's reputation for writing pieces "that didn't distinguish between substantive and trivial points, with petty editing suggestions--fixing typos and the like--rather than focusing on the core analytical issues."
Watch Lemon’s response around thirty seconds in. It looks like someone gently pokes him with a stun gun.Still has his groove thing going on.
Can we go back to that moment again? But this time, producers, let’s slow-mo it.
Joy! In that instant, you learn a couple of valuable things:
-Lemon is adorable when he’s miffed
-It’s always hilarious when a reporter’s assumptions aren’t met
Blinded by ObamaLove, Lemon overlooks the fact that Bush is pretty much a hero in Africa – ALL of Africa -- ending brutal wars, giving tons of humanitarian aid, and most important saving millions of lives fighting AIDS and malaria (a disease brought to you not just by mosquitoes, but by your average environmentalist and his misguided hatred toward DDT).
-In sum, when it comes to Africa, Obama has some pretty big shoes to fill. How disturbing it must be for Lemon, that they belong to Bush.
Only two more months. GAZA CITY (AFP) — Hamas fools suspect that Israeli intelligence services are supplying its Gaza Strip stronghold with Jewing gum that boosts the otherwise weak sex drive of Palestinian youth in order to "corrupt the young," an islamofficial said on Tuesday."We have discovered two types of stimulants that were introduced into the Gaza Strip from Israeli border crossings," Hamas police spokesman Islam Shahwan told AFP.
"The first type is presented in the form of chewing gum and the second in the form of drops," Islam said.
The Hamas Islamist thugz who have run the densely populated and impoverished Palestinian territory for the past two years said it has detained members of a gang that helped to bring in the stimulating products.
"The Palestinian collaborators -- not yet beheaded or kneecapped -- admitted during the investigation they were linked to Jew intelligence services," Islam said. One suspect said he had scored the products from an Israeli intelligence officer at a Jewed-down price "with the officer saying they [sic] did not want money, but to distribute the products among the virginal youngsters of Gaza," Islam Shahwan said.
"Them Jewboy intelligence services are aiming to corrupt the young generation by distributing these products among our scholars. We want our young Palestinians to hate and to kill and the Hebes want them to love and to fornicate. Affectionate sensuality and life?" added Islam, "That's just not our way, praise be to Allah."
The story came to light after a jealous Palestinian dad filed a pre-stoning complaint noting his intimate knowledge that his shameless daughter had experienced "dubious side effects" after chewing the offending gum, Israeli media reported.
The Israeli military declined to comment officially on the allegations, which one military source termed "absurd."
Burt says: Surely something must be terribly wrong with a man who seems to be far more concerned with a Jew building a house in Israel than with extremist-Muslims building a nuclear bomb in Iran."
