Free kibbles

Taliban fighters breach US base.

I doubt it will be long before these prisoners released by Israel are killing Israelis again. Whatever happened to not negotiating with terrorists? That policy worked a lot better than negotiating has.

Obama and McCain condemn satirical New Yorker cover portraying Obama as a Muslim and his wife as a terrorist. This a huge missed opportunity for McCain. In the same sentence he denounces the cover, he should remind Americans that Obama is a disciple of Rev. Wright, not a Muslim. He should remind Americans that Obama subjected himself, his wife, and his children to Wright's insane rants charged with racial hatred for 20 years. He should force Obama to repudiate Wright again, and force him to answer why he stayed in that church for 20 years. There's only 2 possible answers - he agreed with Wright or he did it for political gain. Either way, it works for McCain.

The Onion provides the most honest, accurate representation of the problems in our economy that I've seen in years, if not decades. It's the government caused bubble, stupid.

DNA evidence clears Texas man convicted of rape 7 years after he died in prison. The number of victims falsely convicted by lying women who are subsequently cleared by DNA is frightening. But most victims of vengeful women don't have DNA evidence to clear them, and they'll rot in prison and be stigmatized forever. The only solution is to stop prosecutorial bias and a biased court system that nearly invariably takes the word of woman or child over that of a man even when all the evidence points to innocence.

Lotus Eco-Elise. Is this car green? Who cares as good looking as it is. But is it affordable?

Genetically engineered microbes eat waste and excrete oil.

Interesting assertions, backed by sources, about companies that count votes in the US. Given the obvious agenda of the poster, I'm not sure I trust the sources.
