And what was Earth doing in the run-up to Earth Day? Well, over the last week, it gave us volcano erupting in Peru, earthquakes in Tibet, Indonesia and Japan, freak tornados in America and the Phillipines, floods in Hungary, Romania, in Malaysia and Kenya, wildfires in ( Read more... )

Oh my god. I mean, really... what the hell? I was on Media Matters and I started listening to a clip from Rush Limbaugh's radio show and he was trying to make the case that we failed to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina because of "unchecked liberalism."

I just watched this video where Chris Matthews (who seems cool one minute and then super-douchey the next) suggested we make the UN take up office in what will be the new building on the site of the former Twin Towers. He thinks ( Read more... )

Hey. I've been posting a lot recently. I know it's basically all about politics so if you don't like that... um, tough shit (except you, mom). Following politics is my new favorite legal hobby ( Read more... )
