Wow, that second one is one of the most amazing pieces of self-defeat I've ever seen the species engage in.

USCG is informed of second leak of oil well in Gulf o Mexico

Well frak.. if the cleanup doesn't bankrupt them, I'm not sure what could.

At least they tried having a backup plan.. But whatever it is they use to stop this will be unprecedented...

I was listening on NPR about this. They're apparently trying to avoid burning it, but nothing else is working. So that probably means http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1sAkZF7SCQ

They've already started trying to burn small patches.

Man, after this, I sure am glad Obama opened up the east coast to drilling.

The way I see this going down is "OH LOOK. IT'S OBAMA'S FAULT THAT THE ENVIRONMENT IS FUCKED IN THE GULF OF MEXICO" and the right will promptly forget about Sarah Palin's "DRILL, BABY, DRILL!"

For those just tuning in:

Supreme Court rules that money equals free speech, and that free speech is an inalienable right of corporations (not so much individuals).

And now the conclusion:

Dems suggest that groups that fund campaigns should be required to make it public that they did so.

All the Republicans to a T, including the ones who campaigned for donation caps before, come out against the move. Their reasoning? It's an obvious play by the Dems to gain an advantage during election year.

Think about that for a moment.

Their singular argument is that accountability would only help the Dems.

That was also their argument for voting against Heathcare Reform, so I think it's fair to say that Republicans actually don't have much of a platform to run on. 2008 gutting their entire platform notwithstanding.

It's not going to stop some of them from getting reelected because "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OBAMA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

A rapist in Australia uses the 'skinny jeans' defense and is acquitted

Because there's no way someone could be coerced or threatened into sex, right?

I blame Saxton Hale.

Ruling also reinforces the dumbass view that if a woman doesn't fight back she is clearly consenting.

Australia is a terrible place filled almost entirely with terrible people. This should be no surprise to anybody.

Hey, hey, don't make such sweeping judgments are you might insult people we consider friends.

Elfin was a cool dude.

How big are this girl's titties? If they're A-cups, we can still lock him up for statutory rape.

....So how about Iran winning a seat on the UN's panel for the status of women?

Brentai · « **Reply #2178 on:** May 03, 2010, 07:03:19 PM »

They probably know more about the topic than anyone else in the UN.

Like how they're so easy to bring up to the crane...
