Welcome To Barack Obama’s Race-Free America

It looks like another beer summit needs to take place, where centuries of racial injustice will be cured by a 20 minute conversation with the Tiger Woods of politics:

A prominent Columbia architecture professor punched a female university employee in the face at a Harlem bar during a heated argument about race relations, cops said yesterday…

The professor, who is black, had been engaged in a fiery discussion about “white privilege” with Davis, who is white, and another male regular, who is also white, Friday night at 10:30 when fists started flying, patrons said.

McIntyre, who is known as “Mac” at the bar, shoved Davis, and when the other patron and a bar employee tried to break it up, the prof slugged Davis in the face, witnesses said.

Also, this is what ‘Mac’ looks like (and if I could photo shop, it would say ‘BARACK OBAMA’D!!!’):

The Bravery Of Robert Bernstein

There rarely goes a day where Israel isn’t viciously attacked by ever-powerful non-profit organizations or the bountiful exploding bottle rockets of the Hamas-Al-Qaeda-Islam-Iran Brigade. Even with the best funded, most technologically advanced army and the worlds largest undocumented nuclear arsenal, Israel is utterly helpless in the face of sternly worded human rights reports or mistranslated Ahmadinejad quotes. Thankfully, Robert Bernstein, former Executive Director of the Human Rights Watch, had the courage and temerity to stand up and say no to the impending slaughter of Israel by NGO’s in a New York Times op-ed:

Human Rights Watch has lost critical perspective on a conflict in which Israel has been repeatedly attacked by Hamas and Hezbollah, organizations that go after Israeli citizens and use their own people as human shields. These groups are supported by the government of Iran, which has openly declared its intention not just to destroy Israel but to murder Jews everywhere…

Yet Israel, the repeated victim of aggression, faces the brunt of Human Rights Watch’s criticism.

What don’t you idiotic genocidal human rights reporters get? Israel and Jews everywhere are always the victim. I don’t care how many civilians Israel kills, how many war crimes it commits, or how many wars it starts. Israel is a free, democratic nation that does everything to protect civilians from its bombs of peace, and if you don’t agree, I will bend the truth, then call you an anti-Semite when my logic collapses on itself.

PS. NEW YORK TIMES?!?!

Reason #40501 To Hate The New York Times

Hey, we might have been really wrong about the WMD’s, cheerleaded some of the worst financial decisions of the past decade, and played dead during the Bush administration, but WE STILL GOTTA REPORT ON WHAT THOSE CRAZY HIPSTERS ARE DOING:

“It’s kind of an American Apparel ad come to life,” said Terence McFarland, 40, the executive director of the Los Angeles Stage Alliance, who is a regular.

On a recent Sunday, Christopher Kreiling, a 33-year-old visual artist, was among the first to arrive. It was his first time, but he already had the look down: a pair of very short white corduroy shorts, a pink-and-white striped tank top and the all-important headband.

“I just had 10 cigarettes and a coffee,” he said. “I’m like, ‘O.K., let’s go.’ ”

Good job, New York Times — Your public crusade to make everyone aware of the latest bourgeois fashion trends really makes for quality journalism! I’ll try not to laugh too much at your funeral.

Killing In The Name Of US of Jesus

Who could have imagined that a company of hired mercenaries would turn into a bunch of sociopaths bent on hiding their murderous rampages and corrupt contracts?

“A former Blackwater employee and an ex-US Marine who has worked as a security operative for the company have made a series of explosive allegations in sworn statements filed on August 3 in federal court in Virginia. The two men claim that the company’s owner, Erik Prince, may have murdered or facilitated the murder of individuals who were cooperating with federal authorities investigating the company. The former employee also alleges that Prince “views himself as a Christian crusader tasked with eliminating Muslims and the Islamic faith from the globe,” and that Prince’s companies “encouraged and rewarded the destruction of Iraqi life.”

And that’s just the start of it. Read Jeremy Scahill’s great article in the Nation, Blackwater Founder Implicated in Murder.
