Blogtard of the Day: Justine Adameck

Filed under:   by Xrlq @ 6:02 am

I know I shouldn’t attack a fellow Bearflagger, let alone the mother hen, but this has simply gone too far. How on earth could that commie get behind Jennifer Lopez?! “Dance moves should not be protected by intellectual property or any offshoot theories” my [rhymes with "glass"]. And what’s this shite about how great it is that some stupid initiatives don’t make the ballot?! Did it ever occur to Justine – if that’s her real name – that others do? Give me a break.

Go back to blogging about chickens and lame-ass rock groups that think they’re punk, Justine. That crap bores me to death, but at least no one gets hurt.

I never believed the “it’s all about ooooiiiilllll” bit, but now FoxNews reports that the U.S. government has laid claim to three Iraqi oil fields. The official justification is that when the oil fields will compensate the Coalition of the Willing for the cost of removing Saddam, but given the value of the oil over the long term, I have to wonder if this might over-compensate us just a tad.

Someone please explain this to me. What on earth possessed CNN, of all
networks, to re-hire Peter Arnett????!!!! They should have let that jerk finish his gig with The Mirror, instead. Arnett and The Mirror deserve each other, but I thought CNN was better than that. Apparently not. Bah!
