A brave man walks through the teabagger protest on the National Mall in Washington, DC, with a large sign that reads “Public Option Now”. If not for the cops that escorted him through the crowd, they probably would have eaten him alive. [via]
What happens when you replace the soundtrack from The Matrix with The Carpenters? It’s a toe-tappin’ good time!
All of the Inappropriate Soundtracks (allowed) on YouTube, in order of their creation (except for the trailer being first, but I think that’s a good lead-in). WARNING: There’s a lot of ‘em, and not all of them are Safe For Work. You have been warned. [bsc J-one]
Eric Spiegelman, of the blog “Bus Your Own Tray,” noticed something fabulous while scanning the State Department’s flickr page: Barack Obama’s smile is amazingly consistent:
Ladies and gentlemen, your President is a robot. Or a wax sculpture. Maybe a cardboard cutout. All I know is no human being has a photo smile this amazingly consistent.

Then you get a bunch of trucks and you drive around the neighborhood and you throw them onto somebody’s driveway, you throw onto somebody’s driveway yesterday’s news. That’s what we’re trying to defend.”
It is becoming increasingly clear that Iran is governed not by “Supreme Leader” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei or the “supreme” council of mullahs — which would be bad enough — but by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its political allies, comprising the most extreme elements of Iran’s society, military and government. This is doubly frightening given recent revelations that Iran has for years been concealing the existence of a second uranium enrichment plant and over the weekend test-fired a new array of missiles.
