Every single detail in this story makes me want to set shit on fire.

The current president ran his entire campaign about how shitty America was.

“By the way, she still says she is not proud of America.”

The whole Hanoi Jane thing was a setup. She was a pretty naive peace protester who jumped at the opportunity to show the North Vietnamese as human beings who wanted peace as much as people in the US did. The North Vietnamese exploited this by cajoling her to pose on a anti-aircraft gun.

“Hanoi jane” matters to that little coterie of whackadoos like Jerome Corsi and the Swiftboat Vets for Truth. Out-and-out nutters who do not at all represent American veterans.

Just don’t say it.

I’m so glad to read this because glitter is really, really bad. Thousands of years from now, they will be trying to figure out why we were constantly spraying ourselves and our children with a toxic dust that also clearly injured our pets, waterways and soil.

outcast “coalitions” of two to four male lions don’t get to have sex with females until their take over a pride.

True, there’s a significant difference between Allen & Weinstein.
