You just know that China's going to be the one to criticize America on Iraq, if it comes to it.

They would be correct to continually criticize the United States on Iraq, just as the U.S. House was correct to unanimously denounce China on Tibet last Wednesday (with only RON PAUUUUUUL dissenting).

However, guess who is paying for the Iraqi War? Hint: It ain't the United States.

It is with no fear of the derailing consequences of my actions that I make the following statement.

Bill O'Reilly said something very stupid recently. I don't know if he's repeated it since but around the 8th he said that Iraq should pay for 20% of the total cost of the Iraq conflict.

Bill O'Reilly is a self-proclaimed fiscal conservative advocating governmental appropriation of over a gajillion bucks from the people we are paying to babysit.

You heard it here first. Bill O'Reilly did something you people will disapprove of that I agree with you for disapproving of.

Thad I want you to get a television show.

I'm not saying anything about Bill O'Reilly with that comment.

If any of you had ever seen Black Belt Jones, you'd know what I was talking about when I say "I swear to God I'm gonna educate that motherfucker!"

So uh remember that whole thing about how kissing China's ass and letting them sit at the grownup table was going to make them behave like a first-world country and start cutting back on the censorship and arbitrary imprisonment?

Haha, funny story: according to Amnesty International, not only have China's human rights abuses not gotten better, they've...ha, you guys are going to LOVE this...actually gotten WORSE.

The Chinese Olympic committee has responded by blocking Amnesty International's website.

...Well of course it has.

Can we even fathom a larger contrast than Beijing '08 to London '12?

Like going from Burger - In - A - Can to Veggie Burger.

3 years in the making, $300 million in production costs, and over 10,000 performers.

And then the Koreans go and pirate the rehearsal.

As expected, heavy usage of synchronized crowds and music fit for a Three Kingdoms opera.
