Some people are just incapable of change. Or understanding anything. Like Jim Hoft, The Dumbest Man on The Internet. Or his worthless colleagues at the Liars Club. Consistently-worthless pieces of s**t, each and every one of them. And Charles Pierce had the temerity this weekend to point that out: There

Movie Review
Better late than never, I guess. I finally got to see the latest Star Trek movie in the JJ Abrams reboot of the franchise. Star Trek, Into Darkness was a much better movie than the first, in my humble opinion-although I still have BIG issues with how they took and

Seems we have heard this song played before: JACKSONVILLE, FLA. — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Tuesday he has ordered 20 percent “across the top” budget cuts for his Pentagon staff and that of his top brass. The reductions, which he did not spell out in detail, are for the

I am a big fan of IGoogle. Its a great way to put the content of your favorite news sites and blogs all together in one place-and then make it your default home page when you fire up the browser. It makes a great aggregator and allows me quickly browse

I'd like to put in another plug for ROK Drop if I may. It is probably the only military blog trying to drag some sense into the discussion about the supposed "problems with the military culture" ( which was just fine until feminists came along and decided to fuck it

There is not much for me to say about the verdict. I feel about the same way I did when OJ was aquitted-shock that it happened, and no surprise that it happened exactly the way it did in Florida. Florida's gun laws suck-and the "stand your ground law" that Zimmerman based

I love the writing of Charles Pierce. First of all,he is not afraid of all the conservative concern trolls who get all bent out of shape when one calls one of the Representatives from Wisconisn , the "zombie eyed granny starver" he truly is. Nor does he fall apart when they

This originally appeared over at ROK Drop, but it is such a great story of heroism and calm under extraordinary circumstances, that it is worth pausing and repeating here: From GI Korea's post: Lee Yoon-hye, an Asiana Airlines flight attendant, talks about the plane’s crash at a hotel in San

Getting a 20% pay cut because of "that dystopian sack of monkey pus commonly known as The Ryan Budget, the economic plan without actual economics devised by Paul Ryan, the most recent First Runner-up in the American vice-presidential pageant and longtime zombie-eyed granny starver from the state of Wisconsin"? No

Get the hell out of Afghanistan-as fast as we can. I would love to see that happen. If we can't afford to pay our employees their full salary, can't afford to buy the things the nation needs, can't afford to do the things the nation should be doing-then we don't
