I've heard some people view Obama as like the Mulatto Messiah, but damn.... The whole thing just scares me.

'Flammable' bras hold back Swedish female conscripts'
Published: 22 Sep 09 15:02 CET

The bras issued to Swedish female military conscripts easily catch fire and are prone to coming undone, making them inappropriate for the battlefield, claims a conscripts? rights group.

The lack of combat-ready underwear for Sweden?s women in uniform has been a continuing sore point for the Swedish Conscription Council (V?rnplikstr?det).

?Our opinion is that the Swedish Armed Forces should have ordered good, flame-proof underwear,? Council spokesperson Paulina Rehbinder told The Local.

?There should be suitable apparel for women.?

The poor quality of the standard-issue sports bras prompted a group by female soldiers at the LV 6 military base in Halmstad to voice their displeasure to representatives from the Council recently.

The women complained that the bras? fasteners have a tendency to come undone when the women performed rigorous exercise, forcing the female soldiers to take off all of their equipment in order to refasten the brassieres.

In addition, the bras aren?t flame resistant and, once lit, can melt onto conscripts? skin, the G?teborgs-Posten (GP) newspaper reports.

The Council?s Rehbinder accuses Sweden?s military establishment of dragging its feet on the issue.

"It has not been a priority for the higher ups because women make up only around five percent of the Swedish armed forces," Rebinder said, adding that the problem of suitable clothing for Sweden?s female soldiers has existed for more than two decades.

But she hopes a fresh batch of Swedish military recruits may help press the issue with the Armed Forces? top brass.

"Earlier this year the National Service Administration (Pliktverket) informed them that around 2,000 female recruits were due to enter the service next year. That got them moving,? she said.

So why is this a problem?

Trucker flips his rig after masturbating while driving

Published: 24 Sep 09 14:24 CET

A German trucker suspected of driving under the influence of drugs crashed his vehicle near Bor?s in western Sweden on Tuesday. He subsequently admitted to masturbating at the time of the accident.

The trucker, apparently unable to reach a satisfactory climax, then proceeded to continue to pleasure himself while in the midst of a police interrogation, according to the local Bor?s Tidning newspaper.

"He was masturbating while the police interrogated him," police prosecutor ?sa Askenb?ck told the newspaper.

"He has admitted that he was not paying full attention at the time of the accident. He was playing with himself instead of focusing on the road."

The truck driver was en route from Gothenburg to Bor?s at around 4am on Tuesday morning. The truck and trailer flipped over when he rammed his vehicle into the central division on route 40 south of Bor?s.

The upturned vehicle blocked all traffic towards Gothenburg and one lane was closed in the direction of Bor?s.

The man remained in the vehicle with his hands apparently still clasped around his own gear stick and was subsequently arrested for reckless driving and driving while under the influence of drugs.

The suspicions against the man have now been extended to sexual molestation.

The German trucker, who is in his thirties, has admitted all of the charges directed against him.

Why does this remind of a BHG song...
"You can not imagine how difficult it is to hold a half gallon
of moo juice and polish the one-eyed gopher when your doin` seventy-five in an
eighteen-wheeler. I never thought missing children could be so sexy.
Did I say that out loud?"

This had NOTHING to do with Obama's skin color. Compare the school kids singing praise to Obama to the Chinese forcing children to sing praises to Chairman Mao.

Brush it off as silly or whatever your closed off mind wants to accept as your own reality but it is what it is and must not be ignored.

Palin/Gingrich 2012!

Secret Service investigating Facebook poll on Obama

(CNN) -- The social networking site Facebook on Monday pulled a third-party application that allows users to create polls after a site member built a poll asking if President Obama should be killed.

The U.S. Secret Service, the agency assigned to protect the president, has launched an investigation, agency spokesman James Mackin said.

"As is usually the case, our vigilant users reported it to us first," Facebook spokesman Barry Schnitt told CNN. "The USSS [Secret Service] sent us an e-mail late this morning PDT asking us to take it down. At that point, it had already been removed, and we let them know."

Schnitt said the application "was immediately suspended while the inappropriate content could be removed by the developer and until such time as the developer institutes better procedures to monitor their user-generated content."

Facebook allows third-party developers to create applications -- such as polls and quizzes -- which are then made available to Facebook users, who use the applications to create specific content. Users may choose to make their content available to the general population of Facebook or limit it only to their friends.

In this case, Schnitt said, the user made the poll asking whether Obama should be killed available to the general public.

The possible responses to the poll were "yes," "maybe," "if he cuts my health care" and "no."

Schnitt said the poll "appears to have been posted over the weekend."

Hahaha oh yes PLEASE let Palin speak more. The woman has no idea what the fuck she is talking about or where she leads. Seriously man, I'd rather have George W. Bush run for Vice President for kicks sake, at least he graduated from Yale.

If she is so horrible why do you waste your time beating up on her. You should be pushing for her to get the nomination since she has no chance.

Right????

The point is, if conservatives are so sure she is presidentially nominate worthy then why is there still a yearning for her? If they want or are looking for a female candidate, then hell, why not go for someone with far more political experience like Katherine Harris instead? Why do many Republicans don't see she's still a complete idiot on domestic and foreign policy. I don't think the Heritage Foundation is giving her glowing reviews. I've read some of her closed 90 min speech not written by her in Hong Kong and it's laughable. China is dumping cheap ass tires into the American market at the cost of American mfg and jobs in the time of a deep recession and she's calling out Obama's reaction to protect the American market that might stoke a trade war as traitorous. Come on man, look who's speaking and wagging her finger.

In the world area, Palin would be destroyed by other female leaders like Merkel, Bachelet, Halonen, or even Johnson-Sirleaf of Liberia. If Chavez challenged her in a U. N. debate, I'll take a deep bet she'll end up with tears.

Anyway I want Palin to speak more often! The more exposure, the more people will come to realize what the rest of the country has been thinking for nearly a year that she's really does not have what it takes to a run a country, let alone a state!
