This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place as soon as the photograph was taken. Three months later he committed suicide due to depression

“lemon socialism”: taxpayers bear the cost if things go wrong, but stockholders and executives get the benefits if things go right.

Failed out of college, failed the bar. Ran for senate, lied about his affiliation, lied about his endorsements, lost by double digits anyway. And stem cells are the same as the Holocaust. Ladies and Gentlemen, your new RNC chairman

Obama Terminated CIA's Extraordinary Renditions. And the LA Times (and reddit) got punk'd.

Bill O'Reilly - "They want to threaten the white, Christian male power structure that you and I are a part of..." "We've got to cap it." How is this man still on TV?

WV's Craig Blair wants random drug testing for anyone getting foodstamps, welfare or unemployment benefits. Shouldn't the same hold true for the CEO's and executives of Wall St, the Car Companies, Bank of America, AIG, and anyone else we've bailed out? Let him know. Let's get this done.
