One picture damns all – The Israeli Foreign Minister reasons rationally

At the risk of being accused of criticising Israel and thus being subjected to accusations of hating everything Jewish. I found this page wherein the the seemingly confused Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman is insisting that a picture be sent around the world.

The reason for this is because the Minister appears to have gotten himself [...]

Why is the rest of the world allowing the US to repeat the mistakes that created this financial crisis?

The same people who laid waste to our money are back in charge of the institutions that they caused to fail.
The same economists who failed to spot the impending disaster are still listened to on the various business channels.
The same folk are still anchoring the same business programmes

And now George W Bush has started an [...]

Corrupt sports organisations run by money grabbing wankers – Olympics and FIFA

I know the title seems harsh but there are a lot of questions that the IOC and FIFA need to answer with regards to their corrupt practices.
IOC showed in Utah that they were bribable and the racist Jack Warner of CONCACAF showed that he was not averse to making money as a scalper and defrauding [...]

How do you know that a modern conservative is lieing? Their lips are moving.

Whoo hoo
Stewart of the Daily Show is more of an investigative journo than most of the so-called real journos.
He caught the liars at News Corp doing what they do best, lieing for the hate filled side of the political spectrum.
Apparently the idiot square jawed lair himself is gonna try and get out of it tonight.
The [...]

Attacking soldiers on the eve of Remembrance Day – Really?

Demonstrating against something you find wrong is to be encouraged. However attacking folk with eggs is not, especially when those folk are not free to protect themselves.

Wowser – a great word that will apply to all of us some of the time and some of us all of the time

It’s Australian in origin and means:
“An ineffably pious person who mistakes this world for a penitentiary and himself for a warder” CJ Dennis

Xtians say the moslems hate them and just to prove it’s true they make stuff up – A spat between the truly delusional

Murdoch’s empire is so concerned about the moslem hoards that they are willing fabricate stories to show just how bad these moslems are.
My view is that all religions are equally as screwed up as each other and it is purely a matter of who has the swallowed the biggest pill of retard that determines who [...]

Irrational thinking kills people – the respect given to religion encourages irrationality

I was reading pharyngula and came across a post stating that many non-first world security services are using a tarted up dowsing rod to try and detect explosives and munitions at road blocks.
After more digging I found a post at the ministry of truth website and they indicate the consequences when folk put their faith [...]

I bought the CD, so why is it so difficult for me to put a track on a playlist?

I was trying to include two songs from a cd I bought on a mixed play list so I could listen to it in my truck.
But it was harder than I thought it would be. Windows wouldn’t let me transfer it to Nero unless I had a licence. Microsoft would not let me download the [...]

Time falls back- If GW can change it on a whim why do we do it?

The clocks went back last night and will go forward again in the spring.

Many reasons are cited for this strange custom which seems to be neglected in Saskatchewan. They range from:
The drive behind the switch was “to adjust daylight hours to when most people are awake and about,” Mosley said.
to:
