<p style="text-align: left;">Everyone&#8217;s been talking about how Republicans are going to take control of the entire government this election in November, including the Presidency, but even though they&#8217;re not going to at all let&#8217;s assume they do. What are some of their policy proposals that are just gonna plain make Amurika the best god danged country in the world again? Well let&#8217;s see, uhm I don&#8217;t know, maybe WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE FOR THEM TO DO LIKE GIVE EVERYONE THEIR OWN PERSONAL AMUSEMENT PARK IN THEIR BACKYARDS. That&#8217;s right, the GOP, being the new face of hip and understanding technology, have launched AmericaSpeakingOut.com. It is the Facebook of saving your country.<span id="more-2259"></span></p>
<p>Just go to it. Got a suggestion? Fuckin right it down on that shit. There&#8217;s lots of fun categories to choose from, like American Prosperity, American Values (NO ABORTIONS IN MY BACKYARD, THANKS), and How Best to Fire Michael Steele.</p>
<p>UPDATE: The site is now spewing errors all over the place, probably because the ideas were so fucking revolutionary. I mean LIBERAL HACKERS.</p>

Bush has a new Memoir coming out that he most definitely did not write himself chronicling the life of a man, a president, a horribly misguided decision maker.  <em>DECISION POINTS</em> will be out November of this year, just in time for the holiday season so you can give that winter depression a little boost in the right direction.  Jumpstart your miserableness and relive 8 years of horror and shame for only $35.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;During a fire drill at a middle school in Worcester, England, students  aged 10 to 13 looked on in horror as &#8216;as a man appeared brandishing a  gun and appeared to shoot dead Mr. Kent, their science teacher, as he  ran across a field.&#8217; It was only ten minutes after the shooting that  teachers revealed the whole thing to be fake. The exercise was  apparently &#8216;intended to teach Year 8 pupils how to investigate, collect  facts and analyse evidence.&#8217;&#8221;</p>

<p>The theme this time is SOVEREIGN DEBT.  Remember those words for you will hear them NON STOP on ALL news networks from now till forever.  You see, since the governments of all the world&#8217;s countries decided to save their economies by throwing money at things they were able to avert a grave economic depression but at the cost of large debts.  So now everyone&#8217;s worried about countries defaulting on these debts.  Basically, even if you don&#8217;t know anything about anything:  SELL, SELL, SELL.  Oh god, they almost had me there for a second.  Let me know when the silly market commotion is over so I can come out of my bomb shelter.<span id="more-907"></span></p>

<p>Yay!  For-profit-politics!  I hope everyone&#8217;s ready for 24/7 ads for all your favorite congressmen or potential congressmen during the 2010 midterms now that candidates will have millions of more dollars for funding!  Also, did I mention how horrible this all is?</p>
<p>But look who&#8217;s cheering!  Esteemed black guy and Republican National Committee chairman, Michael Steele!</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Today&#8217;s decision by the Supreme Court in Citizens United v. FEC, serves as an affirmation of the constitutional rights provided to Americans under the first amendment. Free speech strengthens our democracy. While the Court&#8217;s recognition that organizations have the freedom to speak on public issues and have their views protected from censorship is fundamental, the Court has now left an imbalance that disadvantages national parties in their ability to support their candidates. We need to encourage a vibrant debate on the issues, and not restrict the free exchange of ideas. Though there is still more work to be done, we are pleased with today&#8217;s ruling.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Now let us watch as the corporate cock enters the American asshole.</p>

Now some other scientists are relocating them back to their old stomping grounds.</p>
<p>Those brave men.  Make sure you check out their sophisticated spider catching equipment at 0:20.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A woman from Quebec who was receiving paid leave for major depression from her employer&#8217;s health insurance company has stopped receiving money because the company found pictures on her Facebook page of her <strong>smiling and having what appears to be a good time. </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Blanchard said that on her doctor&#8217;s advice, she tried to have fun, including nights out at her local bar with friends and short getaways to sun destinations, as a way to forget her problems. She also doesn’t understand how Manulife accessed her photos because her Facebook profile is locked and only people she approves can look at what she posts. <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/canada/montreal/story/2009/11/19/quebec-facebook-sick-leave-benefits.html" target="_self">[CBC]</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Creepy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-45" title="clockworkorange" src="http://slice.superhappykittymeow.com/~wad/HazardousIfSwallowed/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/clockwork_orange_small-150x97.jpg" alt="clockworkorange" width="150" height="97" /></p>
<p>According to Randall Stross and the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/15/business/15digi.html?_r=1" target="_self">New York Times</a> (well, The U.S. Patent Office), Apple <a href="http://appft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;d=PG01&amp;p=1&amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&amp;r=1&amp;f=G&amp;l=50&amp;s1=%2220090265214%22.PGNR.&amp;OS=DN/20090265214&amp;RS=DN/20090265214" target="_self">applied</a> for a patent last year that would, for the most part, force the user of a certain device to watch or listen to an advert while momentarily freezing the device making it so the user had no choice but to give their attention to the ad. Don&#8217;t even think about pulling a fast one on Apple either because you could even be quizzed on what you just saw, or forced to interact with the ad in a given amount of time when prompted to. Terrible, right?</p>
<p>Of course, this doesn&#8217;t mean that they are for sure implementing any of this, and on a more positive note, devices with this feature built in could then be sold at reduced prices.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t wait till I get asked a couple questions about the Esurance ad I just watched right in the middle of my favorite <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0vrsxg0naA" target="_self">Bearforce1 song</a> on my new 700gb iPod Pro Touch Lite</p>
