WASHINGTON – Rep. Michele Bachmann, who is considering a run for the Republican presidential nomination, says she thinks the race can accommodate both her and Sarah Palin. Both women are favorites of the tea party movement. But Bachmann says she doesn't compare herself to Palin — she compares herself to President Barack Obama. Bachmann says there's "enough room for a lot of contenders" to challenge Obama in 2012. The Minnesota Republican says she considers Palin, the GOP's 2008 vice presidential candidate, a "friend," not a "competitor." But she told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday that she has no problem...

Someone, I don't know who, has made some entertaining videos out of dialogue between a rational conservative and a typical liberal. This one is the latest, titled "Libya vs. Iraq." But I prefer the title Jonah Goldberg gave it: "I don't care, Obama is awesome."

HH: We have a lot to do today, and we begin with Mark Steyn, the commentary equivalent of the high speed train without the massive public subsidies, our Columnist To the World. Hello, Mark, and how are you? MS: Well, I must say, I’ve been insulted many times in my life, but I’ve never been compared to President Obama’s light rail initiative. I take great umbrage at that, Hugh. HH: Well, not the Fresno edition, not the Valley edition. More like the Mid-Western edition, which has only 150% chance of not getting built. Mark Steyn, at this hour, the Egyptian...

(Cross-posted from Facebook) So, I'm reviewing some information on this program that I've been asked to research, and one of the "features" is listed as "INFALABILITY COMPLEX - ADMITTING MISTAKES". Guess they made the "mistake" of not owning a dictionary or spellchecker... Know any other good typo anecdotes? Share them!

by .WASHINGTON (AFP) – It looks and acts like something best left in the hands of Sylvester Stallone's "Rambo," but this latest dream weapon is real -- and the US Army sees it becoming the Taliban's worst nightmare. The Pentagon has rolled out prototypes of its first-ever programmable "smart" grenade launcher, a shoulder-fired weapon that uses microchipped ammunition to target and kill the enemy, even when the enemy is hidden behind walls or other cover.

I've had these pictures sat on my PC for years so i've finally got around to hosting them. I'm slowly captioning them too, based on translations from a French Flickr account. I think he copied them from somewhere else so i don't feel too bad about using them. I'm not copying word for word anyway. Anyway, hope some of you enjoy them ! http://www.stolly.org.uk/ETO

Over the last several years, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has had a decent track record of trotting out naked celebrities to generate PR for their seemingly insane causes — that animals of all varieties deserve the same stature in society as humans. They’ve somehow managed to Playboy models, Hollywood stars, etc. to do scantily clad photo shoots all in the name of getting people not to eat meat or wear fur. So for the big Earth Day so-called Climate Rally on the National Mall on April 25, you would think PETA would go all out, right?...

Really. It's mesmerizing, with the detail of a Hollywood blockbuster and the simplicity of an Indie camcorder shooting. The song isn't nearly as good as Ok Go's first video sensation, A Million Ways. But the choreography for this thing is stunning. It even has a whole Wired article dedicated to its making.For nearly four minutes -- captured in a single, unbroken camera shot -- the machine rolls metal balls down tracks, swings sledgehammers, pours water, unfurls flags and drops a flock of umbrellas from the second story, all perfectly synchronized with the song.HEY! Don't be like that. It can't all...

By Animal News Center (ANC), 1/10/2004 by Sherry Morse A three-year-old pit bull named Marley is credited with saving a little girl in Alaska from a house fire in early December. Marley, a black and white dog who looks like Pete from the Little Rascals television show, grabbed the back of six-year-old Autumn Marley's jacket to drag her out of the burning house. Autumn alerted her mother who was cooking dinner that the entryway to the house was...

Rescued Pit Bull Saves the Day By Kelli Ohrtman, Best Friends Network Cinder thwarted an attempted robbery and protected her foster owner. When Maura McGarrity responded to a plea from a local rescue group, she had no idea what she was getting into. Cinder, an American Staffordshire mix, had been waiting at the shelter for seven weeks; no one had shown interest in adopting her. The shelter said they would have to euthanize her if she didn’t find somewhere to go—fast. Maura said, “When we heard about her heartbreaking conditions and her short time given to live, we went out...

Our Beloved Leader, His Awesomeness, has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for being awesome. Unfortunately, it might land His Awesomeness in further legal issues due to it being unconstitutional to accept as FReepers Swordmaker and Paleo Conservative have pointed out.I originally suggested in a recent thread that His Awesomeness should commission a bust or portrait of Himself to grace the front entrance of the White House. FReeper Hot Tabasco pointed out that I was not being properly respectful of His Awesomeness and suggested instead a replacement of the Statue of Liberty. After careful meditation, I have decided that...

Recollections On a New Age BegunThink of the hope and change of just the last six months that have changed all our lives. It was, I remember, around the beginning of February when the understandable liberal angst about the Bush deficit simply disappeared. Gone. Vanished. No more haranguing about red ink and shorting our grandchildren.For the last eight years, I had some admiration-albeit along with plenty of bewilderment-at the newly fiscally mature Congressional Democrats and their impassioned attacks on Bush’s fiscal irresponsibility.But then suddenly their principled opposition paid off. Deficits disappeared-at least the multibillion species. Yes, borrowing was replaced by...

An F-16 has only one engine. When it goes, you are coming down. It is just a matter of figuring out where the airplane will come to rest on terra firma. The pilot does an awesome job.
