Bin Laden is Dead, but Let Me Ask You This...

In the past 10 years, who has killed more people, Bin Laden, or the American government? I think you know the answer.

Explain This One:

To those who would say we can't allow guns for self-defense on airplanes due to the risk of depressurizing the cabin, this occured at 34,000 feet (otherwise known as full cruising height):

...and there were no serious injuries. The one death in 1988 from depressurizing that is mentioned in the article was from a poor stewardess being sucked out of the plane, not because of the loss of pressure.

April Fools!

WASHINGTON - The Libertarian Party congratulates Congress for passing a budget that makes serious cuts in federal government spending, including the following:

Now He's O-bomb-a

In 2008, it was those pansy anti-war liberals and the (yikes!) Arabs who wanted Obama to win. Now, after keeping us in Iraq and escalating the war in Afghanistan, he's decided to start raining explosives on Libya. Back then, his anti-war stance was the only thing I liked about him. Now, the Arab world has a more unfavorable opinion of the America than they did in the final year of the Bush administration! After ObamaCare, the CARD act (boy was I excited to see my interest rates go up and credit limits go down in the time between it was passed and when it came into effect), failing to raise taxes on the rich while increasing the deficit, failing to get the military out of 2 quagmires, and starting what hopefully doesn't become a third, I have to wonder, is he just trying to gain as many enemies as he possibly can in 4 years?

On This Day in History

Am I Missing Something?...

...or did B. Hussein O. not promise to get us on a path OUT of Iraq and Afganistan? Yet now, here we are in 2011 with military spending higher than ANY year of the King George administration (!), and O thinks the Republican proposal to increase military spending "only" 1-2% isn't nearly enough! Seriously?!

You Might be Crazy, but You're Not Wrong

Did you know that the Pentagon once listed [Aspartame] in an inventory of prospective biochemical warfare weapons submitted to Congress? Or that the FDA unanimously rejected it in 1980, only approving it after the wheels were greased by some shady dealings, including some ramrodding by Donald Rumsfeld himself?

If that doesn't carry enough weight by itself, Cracked.com has several more government conspiracies for you, all of which contain credible sources.
