An Open Letter To The Washington Embassy Of The Bolivaran Republic Of Venezuela 

Take me off your fucking email list, right fucking now already! I am never going to write anything about Venezuela. I don’t give a shit about a fucking thing you do! Whatever “unacceptable posture” Alvaro Uribe has assumed toward you? That you feel like telling me about? Your refusal to honor my repeated attempts at unsubscribing from your email list have now led me to side with him! VIVA URIBE!

Gordon Brown Narrowly Avoids "Disaster"...

...of the PR variety.

It seems weird to say that a politician "almost walked into a PR catastrophe," but this would have been so rich it's worth noting.

As Paul Waugh writes, British PM Gordon Brown was at a mall (or whatever the hell the English call a "mall," probably "morley" or "jerry nook" or some damn thing) in west London for a photo-op.

Innocent enough:

But had he walked in just a bit to the right, he would have stood under this sign:

And that would have been pretty ridiculous.

Reminds me of this winner from 2004:

 

Financial Reform is Confusing

Paul Krugman is smart, and explains it in Financial Reform 101.

Freepers to kick Earth in the nuts

The filthy hippies at the World Wildlife Fund are organizing an Earth Hour, scheduled for this Saturday at 8:30 p.m. The idea is that people will turn off their lights for 60 minutes, sit in the dark and read the Whole Earth Catalog by alpaca-tallow-candlelight.

After that everyone goes back to skipping 9-volt batteries across the lake.

Free Republic readers, unwilling to grant the earth even this brief reprieve, are organizing an Hour Of Power, which sounds awesome.

 

The Freepers have shrewdly instructed everyone to demonstrate their support by turning on their porch lights at 8:30 p.m.

On a Saturday.

This is like when I visit my grandma in the hospital and whisper into her ear "if you don't want be to take $20 out of your handbag, sing the opening riff to "Smoke on the Water.

nothing? Ok, thanks Grandma."
