Stop Online Piracy Act Committee Vote Put Off Till Wednesday

If you aren’t familiar with the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), here’s a basic premise (NBC Bay Area) It could require Internet providers to monitor customers’ traffic and block websites suspected of copyright infringement.

Probably not. Will it work […]

Shockingly, Supercommittee To Fail, Now Trading Blame

In all seriousness, did anyone think that the Supercommittee would actually come up with some sort of deal to save a paltry $1.2 trillion – rather weird to write paltry regarding that amount of money, yet, it is paltry when it comes to the federal budget – over 10 years? The GOP wanted actual cuts, […]

OWS: What Better Way To Get People On Your Side Than Tick Them Off?

Thursday’s two month anniversary of liberals squatting in squalor, avoiding showers, banging on drums, doing drugs, raping other Occupiers, exposing themselves to children, and ruining the local businesses profits, among others, was a perfect show of liberalism. For some reason, they think the best way to achieve their objectives is to use vinegar instead of […]
