ctm anti-semites
TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran objects to the logo for the 2012 London Olympics, contending it is racist because it resembles the word "Zion" and warning of a possible boycott of the Games.
They are urging other Muslim states to oppose the "racist logo."
I don't like the logo because it's ugly, but since you all know how much I like to incite hatred (being a conservative and all), I think I'll start liking it.

help jordan become famous!
uh oh.
look what barack said when he was running for prezzy:
"And understand this: If American workers are being denied their right to organize and collectively bargain when I'm in the White House, I'll put on a comfortable pair of shoes myself, I'll walk on that picket line with you as President of the United States of America. Because workers deserve to know that somebody is standing in their corner." (via)

i'm ok, everyone!
let that be a lesson to all of you. don't ride your motorcycle in the XBL. (that's eXclusive bus lane, jicdak)A rush-hour accident inside the Lincoln Tunnel involving a motorcycle and four three commuter buses caused at least 15 people to be hospitalized and created substantial traffic delays Thursday morning, according to New York Fire Department and Port Authority officials.
The accident occurred around 7:25 a.m. in the Manhattan-bound center tube of Lincoln Tunnel. The motorcyclist, who suffered a broken femur and shoulder, ended up pinned underneath one of the buses, officials said.
Authorities were still piecing together what caused the accident. The collision happened in lanes that were dedicated for buses only, according to an official.
A total of 51 passengers on the buses — two NJ Transit buses and a Monsey Trails bus — were treated for injuries. Officials said 14 of the passengers were taken to Roosevelt Hospital. The motorcyclist was taken to Bellevue Hospital.
The accident shut down part of the Lincoln Tunnel and caused delays of about 90 minutes for those entering the city through the tunnel, officials said. New Jersey Transit bus service reported delays of up to 45 minutes to Port Authority but said buses were no longer being diverted away from the tunnel. (via)
shit is goin down in knoxville
as y'all probz heard, the ncaa gave the volunteers a list of wrongdoings yesterday. there aren't really any new allegations, and bruce has already been punished by the school and the sec. chances are the ncaa won't get us too bad since the penalties are already more than what jim calhoun just got at uconn. we might lose a scholarship, but ho needs it when you get both pat and bruce's sons as walk ons? i think, like pat forde thinks, that mike hamilton should be held accountable in this. i'm pretty sure bruce will only be leaving on his own accord though. and lane kiffin is a douchebag. we also learned that georgia is still envious of the vols and will always be inferior.
did you read?
Somali pirates interviewed Wednesday said something must have gone very wrong in the case of the Quest, since killing hostages is bad for business and is almost certain to draw a more aggressive response from countries like the United States. “We don’t kill hostages,” said a pirate in Hobyo who gave his middle name as Hassan. “We have many hostages here, and we treat them well. But the pirates might have been angered by the Americans.”
The person in contact with pirate cells said a gun fight had broken out below deck on the Quest, likely over money or the hostages’ fate. American officials theorize this may have been the case. Five minutes after the pirates fired a rocket-propelled grenade at the Sterett, and small arms fire erupted, 15 Navy SEAL commandos stormed the yacht. The hostages were dead or dying. American officials said it was unclear whether they had been executed or killed in the pirates’ cross-fire. Other pirate hostages have died in captivity or during rescue attempts, but there are few, if any, cases of pirates intentionally killing hostages.
The commandos shot and killed one pirate and stabbed another. Two other pirates were found dead, apparently killed by their comrades, and 13 surrendered to the Americans. (via)

shit is getting embearassing in the midwest.
idiot republican exploiting state budget concerns to push conservative anti-union values by stripping labor rights from the hard-working people of wisconsin, scott walker, got punked by a prank caller this week, who was (barely) imitating conservative rich guy and political donor, david koch.
during the call, walker outlines all of his dubious strategies for tricking the runaway democrats into unwillingly participating in the vote, describes methods of bending laws in order to charge them with felonies, and expresses excitement at the mention of a free trip to california paid for by koch if his efforts are successful. i am not a fan of politicians acting like a bunch of babies, but i have an even bigger problem with said politicians being in the pockets of energy corporations. so i say: scott walker, you're busted. now, quit playin' and open up talks in the interest of finding some sort of compromise, so everyone can get back to work.
