"Jay Nordlinger of National Review makes the move on goal that Tapped has been anticipating: namely, equating soccer appreciation with the Left. To wit:"
"It seems to me that we have surrendered to soccer -- the Left loves it, and the young ones are being indoctrinated in it. I remember my daily walks through my neighborhood in Washington, where I saw the baseball diamonds grassed over with those infernal soccer fields. I felt that we'd lost something -- and I think I know why, political neurotic that I am."

"THE HAGUE — The Dutch parliament was shocked by a US legislative proposal giving an official green light to a US invasion of the Netherlands should it be deemed necessary to free US citizens from the International Criminal Court in The Hague."

"Monsanto vs. Percy Schmeiser was heard in a Canadian court June 5 - 20, 2000.
According to reports, Monsanto never directly tried to explain how their genes
got into Schmeiser's field. In fact, the Western Producer, a Canadian agriculture
magazine, quoted Monsanto attorney, Roger Hughes, as saying, "Whether
Mr. Schmeiser knew of the matter or not matters not at all." In other words,
Schmeiser's fields were contaminated by Monsanto's GM technology, and it
didn't matter if Schmeiser was aware of the contamination or not. They were
going to make him pay for it! Percy Schmeiser said, "It was a very frightening
thing because they said it does not matter how it gets into a farmer's field; it's their
property... if I would go to St. Louis (Monsanto headquarters) and contaminate
their plots--destroy what they have worked on for 40 years--I think I would be
put in jail and the key thrown away."

"Hilton said he has information that bin Laden died several years ago of kidney failure."

funny Daily Show segment on bushdodging and the hyperventilating media that loves him.

my neighbors have gone from being annoying to truly becoming a blight. when the dogs would annoy the crap out of me id try to take solace by telling myself that at least they werent ridiculously loud otherwise. but with their nearly club volume party music the other night and tonight with the stereo now a fixture on their roof accompanied by some shithead banging spastically on bongos at one in the morning, i cant but wish them a slow and painful death. they have nearly zero consideration for their neighbors. they must be pissing off people in at least eight buildings. someone must have called the police last week but that only shut them down for two hours before they cranked up the volume from midnight to 4am. how do you combat this sort of tyranny in civil society?
