Interesting piece comparing two stadiums filled with people from natural disasters. One was filled with blood, rapes, and stabbings (which turned out to not have actually happened) and the other is filled with happy people and rock concerts?
Will FEMA and Bush get credit here? Does it come down to a competent mayor or perhaps the Gov-inator? Things to ponder…
Violence continues to go down in Iraq. Now down another 70% from the already lower rates in July. The security over the entire country is remarkably improved. To put things in perspective the civilian deaths amidst a war zone have fallen to 38% BELOW the murder rate in the United States. That’s right, more people are murdered here than are dying in the war in Iraq.
But don’t worry, the media will ignore most such stories as good news = no news.
“One item from Baghdad today. The news is… that there is no news. The police told us that, to their knowledge, there were no major acts of violence. Attacks are down in Baghdad and today no bombings or roadside explosions were reported.” – Charlie Gibson World News Tonight on ABC Oct 17th.
Found this at NeuralGraffiti.com. The interview is hysterical, because Jon just won’t let it go… I have said this before but I love that Stewart while is a Dem and a Lib, he will still call people out when they go off the cliff.
The forced laugh from Matthews seem Hillary-esk. The crux of it shows up when Jon tries to point out that the book favors winning over doing the right thing – Matthews corrects that winning IS the right thing to do.

Wildfires are raging all across southern California. A quarter of a million people have been evacuated from their homes in San Diego alone. Almost two hundred thousand homes stand vacant. High winds are preventing any real progress against the blaze.
With 13 different wildfires across the state, the causes are abundant, but experts believe that illegal immigrants are to blame in starting at least one of the wildfires. Illegals camping in the desert often leave camp fires unattended or don’t completely put out a fire before moving on. Unfortunately, in such remote areas the fires can spread quite a distance before being noticed by the authorities.
With the home values in California among the highest in the country, these fires could easily cause billions of dollars in damages. Remember that, the next time someone tries to say that illegals don’t cost our country anything.
Talk about slide burn…
