My Canadian counterpart explains why the current TSA kerfluffle is nothing but rank hypocrisy on the part of the GOP. Of course, with everyone flipping the fuck out, it tends to be forgotten that half of America is being more than a little hypocritical. It wasn’t too long ago, after all, that we heard the… Continue reading The irony of it is lost on them.

Asking the wrong question…..
Lex and others have taken a great deal of pride in flashing this picture around-and then with a certain amount of snarkiness proclaiming how great it was under George W. Bush.
