Today's signs that the Apocalypse may well and truly be upon us

Banks Illegally Foreclosed On Dozens Of Military Borrowers. Who loves our troops now??

Rep. Chris Smith: Fetuses ‘Most Persecuted Minority In the World’. Republicans LOVE babies…until they’re born, that is.

Cops: Ohio man arrested for running naked in race. Without pictures, this story is worthless.

Japan Says It’s Okay For Children To Be Exposed To Lots Of Radiation. Fear of cancer is for weenies.

Rumsfeld and other US officials say torture didn’t help catch bin Laden. But, hey, if you need to indulge in the torture-helped-us-kill-bin-Laden narrative in order to feel good about your blind patriotism..well, OK, then.

Trying To Ruin Your Ex’s Credit Score Is Not A Good Way Of Getting Revenge. Revenge may be a dish best served cold, but you don’t need to be stupid about it.

American Heroine Harriet Miers Is Now Lobbying for Our Friends, The Pakistanis. Everyone has their price, no?

Green Army men with PTSD. Art imitates life…sometimes with depressing accuracy.

David Koch Doesn’t Give ‘Hardcore Socialist’ Obama Credit For Killing Anything. Right; just because he’s President, it doesn’t mean he actually did anything.

Neil Gaiman responds to Minnesota Republican House Leader who called him a “pencil-necked geek” and a “thief”. Hmm…you say “pencil-necked geek” like it’s a bad thing….
