Free kibbles

POLICE STATE:

Prosecutors released recordings of six phone calls by George Zimmerman in order to bias the jury pool against him. This is standard operating procedure for prosecutors and nobody questions it, but if a defense attorney did this, a judge would sanction him. This is just another example of the pervasive corruption of our justice system. Note they won't release other phone calls that work to Zimmerman's benefit. They'll probably claim they're protecting his right to privacy.

FOREIGN POLICY:

The corruption of the Egyptian electoral process is impressive.
"Islamist candidate Mohammed Morsi has declared victory in Egypt's first free presidential election since Hosni Mubarak's ouster 16 months ago.
But just as polls were closing, the ruling military council issued constitutional amendments that gave sweeping authority to maintain its grip on power and subordinate the nominal head of state."
"The military decreed that it will have legislative authority after a court dissolved parliament, it will control the drafting of a new constitution and will not allow civilian oversight of its significant economic interests or other affairs."
This is an outright coup by the military that is backed by the US, so we can thank the US government for instigating more hatred and attacks against us.

MISC:

I didn't realize there were skeptics to modern cosmological theory too. In this article, the author criticizes the pseudo-science of global warming, but he does the same in article after article on cosmology.
"Science has become religion! ..although religion may have borrowed some of the jargon of science, science, more importantly, has adopted the methods of religion. This is the worst of both worlds."
Much like democracy is so dangerous because it fools people into believing the government is legitimate and works for them, religion posing as science is similarly, incredibly dangerous for the same reason.
