Today's Topics

Category: Good News

The Turkish government has decided to acquit Elif Shafak, a prize-winning female author, of all charges of insulting the Turkish nation by writing a novel about the massacres of Armenians during WWI.

This is very big of the Turks and I’m sure they will get a few brownie points with the UN since they are trying to join that club.

I think System of a Down should write her a song.

Today All Saints Episcopal Church will announce their course of action with the IRS audit. Perhaps you are unaware that they are being audited by the IRS over a sermon where a speaker gave a hypothetical situation where Jesus debated George Bush and Senator Kerry.

If the IRS proves that the sermon “intervened on a political campaign”, in other words, was in favor of Kerry and opposed Bush, (those bastards) the church will owe back taxes to who knows when and then I’m sure they’ll want a list of the congregation so they can be audited too!

The sermon took place in 2004. Why now months before another rigged election?

You pick the category news:

Opium in Afghanistan has hit record levels, were talking about a 40% increase since last year. The heroin balloon is about to explode!

The 2005 harvest made up 52% of Afghanistans GDP (gross domestic product) and the increase has risen each year since we booted out the Taliban.

Now if the drug lords hook up with the terrorists we'll be so fucked up we'll never know what hit us.
