    Someone said he should be hung for treason, I asked "which charge?" and they actually responded with "I DONT KNOW BUT IM SURE THERES SOMETHING HES DONE!"

    So... Not that far off really

    Its just kind of sad in the wake of one religion overreacting to satire and murdering people the paper of another is editing out women for some strange reason? I mean you may not like the mayor of Paris for some weird reason but she is actually the mayor.

    I don't really have a butter preference whatevers cheapest. We only really use it for eggs and the occasional english muffin topping.

    They edited out Audrey Tomason, too. There's an Haredi/ultra orthodox Jewish thing about not printing images of women due to modesty laws.

    I am also completely mystified why anyone cares Obama didn't show up for the stupid PR thing about those murders in Paris. I know its a shocking thing and blah blah blah, but christ world leaders getting together won't fix jack shit and honestly all those world leaders in one place that just had terrorism? Might not be a great idea.

    Seriously. At this point I'm so sick and tired of "obama didn't do/did do this and what that means" fucking christ I'd like him to just show up clearly unclean shaven and in unclean clothes.

    "What? Fuck you guys I'm putting in as much effort to show up as you guys give me credit for."

    And claiming it was just a publicity grab from a lame duck president. And also claiming that whatever his daughters wore was inappropriate for the occasion.

    America also has incredibly restrictive requirements of foreign governments when the President travels. It's actually pretty insane how much more we demand security wise than any other country to protect the president, and these requirements were cited as a top reason for the president not going.

    That march of world leaders? The secret service wouldn't have let it happen.

    The president not going was actually a higher sign of respect than if he actually went.

    To be fair, someone killing Obama would be a major win for any terrorist ever. There is a reason we are incredibly protective of the president.

    That and you don't want America to be "avenging" our president, because like 9/11 shit would get real bad real fast.

    Yeah, I think we can all agree that the old Onion headline "Black Man Given America's Worst Job" was incredibly prescient.

    Alleged sex crimer Bill Cosby is universally reviled, alleged sex crimer Woody Allen now has a new gig making a show for Amazon.com, Inc.

    Both of them should be arrested and thrown into prison, but in my heart of hearts I think the reason Woody's getting a pass is because he's white/Jewish.
    Like the article said, he's long relied on his "neurotic" persona to sell movies, and now he's using it to get out of raping a little girl*. Bastard.

    Man, Jeff Bezos is such a dick.


    *going by a quick glance at the Google headlines, 3/4ths are "Woody Allen gets a new show" and the rest are "Will there be backlash?" crap. There'd better be backlash!

    There won't. Allen's situation isn't as air tight as Cosby's. It's already old news, sad to say.

    Well its also the volume of reports against Cosby, and the people accusing Allen definitely have an agenda for doing so.

    Now if Amazon had Roman Polanski doing a tv show, that would be some shit.

    Hollywood would still be supporting him, like they did last time. If there's one person who can unify Hollywood it's Roman Polanski.

    And it disappoints me every time.

    Like one thing I hate with Polanski is that they point out his victim wants him to be able to stop being pursued. What they leave out of course is that she only wants that because the media has harassed her for years and anytime Polanski would come up they'd tromp out to wherever she is and remind everyone around her she was raped by a famous guy.

    That still doesn't mean Dylan is lying! So what if his ex-wife hates him? Maybe she hates him because he raped their kid. Just... ergh. It really ticks me off when famous people get away with raping kids (Jimmy Page, for one).

    At least Roman Polanksi is still facing charges.

    Plus, call me crazy, but having sex with one daughter makes it awfully suspicious when the other one accuses you of the same. Not conviction worthy, but "maybe I shouldn't pay this guy huge sacks of money when plenty of other choices exist," worthy of suspicion.

    Instant grits? No self-respectin' Southerner uses instant grits. Huckabee should take pride in his grits.
