According to (ahem) Some People [More/Edit]

Only 199 more days for George W. Bush to finish reading The Pet Goat.
  • A new law in Texas requires every computer repair technician to obtain a private investigator's license - or face a fine of up to $4,000, or even spend a year in jail.
  • Obama and McCain give their views on patriotism, driving the wedge deeper.
  • Princess Wijdan Al Hashemi and Aliki Moschis-Gauguet create a traveling art exhibition to erase U.S. stereotypes of Muslim women. No doubt the feds are now busily at work trying to get them into Gitmo.
  • A so-called Christian news website called OneNewsNow.com ("Your News Right Now") has a zero-tolerance policy towards the word "gay." OneNewsNow uses automated software that replaces the word "gay" with the word "homosexual" in every news story. So, when athlete Tyson Gay ran the 100-meter in 9.68 seconds. . . .
  • The U.S. finally decides that Nelson Mandela is not a terrorist. Perhaps in 40 years we'll be told one or two people at Camp X-Ray aren't terrorists either.
  • Expelled makes a whopping $24,374 in its opening weekend in Canada. Like, all of Canada.
  • Citizen informant program rolled out in Colorado.
  • Obama states that he will continue some of Bush's faith-based programs, no doubt causing many of his supporters to become a little worried.
  • A Federal Appeals Court has ruled that South Dakota's Controversial abortion law is perfectly legal, stating that Planned Parenthood could not prove that forcing doctors to tell women "that the abortion will terminate the life of a whole, separate, unique, living human being." and informing them that they have a right to continue a pregnancy, that abortion may cause women psychological harm and possibly thoughts of suicide is untruthful, misleading or irrelevant to the woman's decision. Rounding out the stupidity, the court found that the information required to be given is biological in nature, and Planned Parenthood did not show the information is ideological.
