Actually, it's natural gas they're extracting, but otherwise you are spot on.

His photo does belong up on the wall in the post office.

People today no longer seem to get the reference to the FBI "Most Wanted" fugitives list, which used to be affixed (with photos) to the wall in the lobbies of every post office in America. Has it really been that long? The phrase, "seeing his picture on the post office wall" used to be a cute way of saying that someone was über-bad or very notorious.

<em>Cheney said the next president needs to “turn around the whole trend” of cutting defense dollars.</em>

It's amazing how this lie can be said with a straight face. No one is cutting defense spending. Even the current Administration has not "cut" defense spending. It's just growing more slowly - the Hagel plan would cut $500 billion out of the defense budget over the next decade, but it would still be a higher budget in real dollars than at the height of the Cold War.

Only in the land of the demented could a slight increase instead of a massive increase be deemed a "cut".

Main thing the Constitution needs protecting from is its protectors, ie those five cocksuckers on the SCROTUS.

Why is the science for boner pills acceptable but the science about contraception and climate change is a 'belief'?

<i>Dick hunted it down himself!</i>

It was tied to the stage, and he rolled his wheelchair over it. It took a couple times, then when it was good and subdued, he bit the head off of it.

I think I finally get his point. If we drastically cut back on domestic spending, the U.S. will become such a hellhole that no else is going to want what we have. Which will solve all the problems of border security and terrorist threats. Or something.
