This thread knows what's important. To the links. And if you'll excuse me, I have some warning shots and bells to take care of.
  • Like the image up top? More where that came from here.
  • Fox News guest Neal Boortz, following up on Rush Limbaugh's statement that Barack Obama is "winning his war against the private sector":
    “If people vote for Barack Obama next year, it’s like strapping on an economic suicide vest and giving the detonator to your ex-wife,” he declared.

    Classy.

  • Feeding homeless people can be a crime in Orlando. Policies like this thrill conservative Jesus.
  • Mitt Romney believes in anthropogenic global warming. Raise your hands if you think the Palin-Bachmann-Santorum wing of the Republican Party is going to come anywhere close to voting for someone from Massachusetts who imposed health insurance mandates and believes in science. Yeah, my hand isn't raised either.
  • Assisted suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian passed away yesterday. The difference between Dr. Kevorkian and Paul Ryan? Kevorkian wanted the elderly and infirm to die with dignity..
  • A homeowner forecloses on Bank of America:
    Bank of America was ordered by the court to pay the homeowner, Maurenn Nyergers and her husband's legal fees for wrongfully trying to foreclose on thier house.

    After more than 5 months, the bank still hadn't paid. So the homeowner's attorney did exactly what the bank was prepared to do to get their money, he went to seize the bank's assets.

    "They've ignored out calls, ignored out letters, legally this is the next step to get my clients compensated, " said attorney Todd Allen.

    So with several armed Sheriff's deputies, movers and a moving truck in tow, the attorney went to the bank to foreclose. The attorney gave instructions to be ready to remove desks, computers, copiers, filing cabinets, even cash in the teller's drawers.

    Turnabout is fair play and all.
