“Will Kate Middleton wear a tiara for the royal wedding?”
And here’s some news from me
” Everyday on average 3000 children die on this planet from disease because they lacked access to clean drinking water. I don’t have to start a war to look for weapons of mass destruction – I know exactly where they are”
Figure out what news is more important.
Hell, he got 1.3 million followers on Twitter the first day alone.
That’s more than any damned starving kid!
They’re definitely not WINNING!!!
should be a daily feature. Every day it would be a real challenge to come up with just one example.
Remember Wisconisn Gov. Walker claiming the draconian measures against unions were absolutely vital to cut the budget, except for the unions who supported him, fire and police? Those he could afford to let slide? Then all kinds of ungrateful police and firefighters supported the rest of the public workers?
And have you seen the John Stewart video (sorry, I’m having an embedding issue so the best I can do is link to article with video) where, among many other examples, the very same person argues that you can’t take away bonuses from Wall Street execs whose firms are taking tax payer dollars because they were promised in a contract, contracts being sacred, and that it’s perfectly fine to take away what teachers were promised in contracts?
We might need a GOP hypocrisy of the hour feature to have any hope of keeping up:

My reading of the volatility in the ME does not allow for optimism….my usual state of mind.
Some bad things will happen. But the only way forward for the Middle East is to break out of their stasis and find their way forward. And over the long term things will be better.
Of course, in the long term we’re all dead.
This is why advocates for a new non-fossil fuel energy economy have been right all along and the drill baby drill crowd has been wrong from the national security and economic, as well as ecological points of view.
There isn’t a whole lot we can do now to stabilize the Muslim oil states. How many countries can we invade? The genie is out of the bottle. The inevitable instability is well under way and probably will get worse before it gets any better. There was never any scenario where the people were never going to rebel at some point in time against our enemy of our enemy despots as well as our just plain enemy despots. Hated despots rarely make for long term stability.
We can never produce enough oil for our needs because, even by the most optimistic estimates, we just don’t have enough. So much for drilling our way to prosperity and securuty.
We wouldn’t be in this fix if our fossil fuel energy industry poodle pols hadn’t been preventing us from getting serious about new energy technology for the past 40 years. We could already be free from having to worry about what instability in this region was going to do to our energy economy. We could already be the world leaders in a new energy age.
Instead, here we are, fresh out of warm bodies, treasure and public support to impose our will by military force in a zillion unstable places at once. The best we can do is get serious about the pursuit of new energy technology and give getting off fossil fuels that tie us to geography and force us to risk our water supply (the next geopolitical battleground), and life giving eco structure in pursuit of finite resources increasingly dangerous to access (as the easily accessed have already been tapped) the same priority we once gave to getting to the moon. Until we get there we’re in for a bumpy ride.
Hold on for the bumpy ride.

Into an oil&gas, or natural resources fund.
Self-employed with anemic IRAs but good tip.
There’s a whole lot of volatility in oil and gas. Yes, price wise as a commodity, it’s trending upward.
But, investors like stability.
