It's true, you need some mexicans to make them.

Face it burrito, it's one more awesome food that whitey just CAN'T DO RIGHT.

Burrito just doesn't like the competition.

Though really the falafel wraps I get are more like tacos than burritos.

The guy I get my falafels from could be Moslem, Jewish or Coptic Christian for all I know. It doesn't concern me much, because he's a genial fellow and his food is good.

Another Triumphalist Ground Zero Shrine Exposed!!!

The victims of one of history’s most brutal acts of war are surely rolling in their graves! We have discovered evidence that a triumphalist monument has been built by the perpetrators of the atrocity not three blocks, not two blocks, but a mere block-and-a-half from Ground Zero:

Oh for the lova

A bunch of protesters at ground zero harassed a black guy passing through.

Even though the assault on an individual should not be condoned, I'll take that over torching of police cars anyday.

Mongrel · « **Reply #426 on:** August 25, 2010, 06:02:48 AM »

What.

Also, re: "not-mosque". At this point I just want it built because it'll piss off all the right people.

That's great if that's literally all you want.

I wish I could be so glib and really mean it.

There's been a lot of retrospective stuff in the news recently regarding New Orleans' recovery, and it got me to wondering:

Oh my God. The New Orleans Republican Headquarters is within 10 miles of the Louisiana Superdome. That's just terrible. After all the horrible things the Republicans did to the people of New Orleans those faithful three weeks five years ago, and we go and allow them to put their headquarters wherever they want? That's insulting. I'm all for freedom of speech, but the superdome is a sacred place, full of saints. I mean, who knows what kind of ties these Louisianan Republicans have? Could they be in bed with George Bush? Or maybe even Dick Cheney?

I say we organize a protest.

Cute, but if you wanted to play that game I'd have gone with Glenn Beck organizing one of his astroturf orgies at the location of King's speech, on the anniversary of King's speech.

Disposable Ninja · « **Reply #431 on:** August 28, 2010, 11:41:15 AM »

Except Glenn Bleck's thing is entirely worth protesting for perfectly legitimate and entirely non-ironic reasons.

Also, Metairie is only kinda halfway part of New Orleans.

If I recall, it's mostly a lower-class white-trash suburb, pretending to be a middle-class white-trash suburb (How appropriate that the GOP headquaters is there). Guys in trailers pretending they own homes and the like. 'Course the last (and only) time I was in Nawlins was three months before Katrina, so maybe it's more gentrified now?

I don't think I'll ever get tired of listening to crazy right-wingers speak for themselves:

Half of the TAKING AMERICA BACK stuff these people say reminds me of Metal Wolf Chaos. FREEDOM IS DEAD IN AMERICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

In news that will surprise people who believe in the Tooth Fairy, Lou Dobbs employs illegal immigrants.

So, you're a Birther, but you're having trouble getting past that whole "actual birth certificate and multiple birth announcements" thing. Well, I have news for you! In 1961, Stanley Ann Dunham did indeed birth the son of Barack Obama Sr. in a Hawaiian hospital, and name him Barack Hussein Obama. What you don't know, though, is that the "Barack Obama" currently in the White House is not that boy! He is the devil spawn of Malcolm X, granted the stolen identity of an American child in order to seize the presidency and bring about the Negrocalypse foretold in the Dead Tooth Scrolls.

Mongrel · « **Reply #438 on:** October 12, 2010, 02:13:42 PM »

I especially enjoyed the fact that he would still be a US citizen if Malcom X was his father.

Dylan Ratigan rants about America's War on Islam

It's long-ish, but definitely worth watching, if only to see the wonderfully uncomfortable expressions on the rest of the morning show talking head types.
