We all remember that Supreme Court decision that entirely transgressed the purpose and even spirit of corporate law. It was funny, of course – just in a bad way. But now fortunately Stephen Colbert has made it funny in a good way:
A couple hundred people stood around holding cameras as comedian Stephen Colbert dropped into Washington and filed papers for his Super PAC. It was the most excitement the Federal Election Commission and its office may ever see…
“The Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United has proved that unlimited corporate money equals free speech,” said Colbert as the crowd cheered, clapped and booed. By the Colbert logic, that means that no corporate money means “silence.”
The crowd cheered as Colbert stepped out of the FEC building, with nearly everyone holding up their cameras as the funnyman gave his usual performance.
“I want to open the Colbert super PAC for all those PAC-less Americans,” said Colbert, as several in the crowd recited his PAC’s motto: “Making a better ‘tomorrow’ tomorrow.”
This about the only good thing to come of this decision.
I have yet to see a good argument for God in the 21st century. There were arguments that worked when we didn’t have the same facts we have now, but ever since the Enlightenment every argument for God has been a radical failure. I mean, it’s ridiculous. I hardly believe that theists are even trying at this point.
Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death. Because they have cursed their father or mother, their blood will be on their own head. ~Leviticus 20:9
I can take that bin Laden information will be in the news for quite some time. And I can take that there will be those moronic conspiracy theorists who say he wasn’t killed. Or he has been dead for years. Or whatever malarkey they want to throw around. And I can stand listening to the stupid debate about releasing images. I can stand listening to all that garbage because at least it’s expected garbage. But come on, media. Are we really going to call bin Laden’s compound a “lair”? Unless President Obama is really Mario, Osama was really Bowser, and the woman he used to shield himself was the Princess, he did not live in a friggin’ “lair”.
