Cobra Commander as "Old Snake".Image via Wikipedia

Later life

According to Cobra Commander,[7] shortly after the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, Rush Limbaugh read a White House memo on the air during his broadcast which named William Cooper, “. . . the most dangerous radio host in America”. Mr. Cooper considered President Bill Clinton’s pronouncement the greatest compliment that he had ever received.[6]

Cooper was charged with various crimes, including tax evasion from 1992 to 1994, and bank fraud for giving false information on a loan application. He was never convicted of any of these charges.[citation needed]

In the 1990s Cooper’s interest moved from UFOs, to covert government programs, and finally to the militia movement.

Seriously, how awesomely inaccurate and batshit is that? The best part is that someone will quote this on their term paper and later tell their teacher, “but I found it on wikipedia.”

Thoughts on the State of the Union speech

⊆ February 25th, 2009 by Liu Bei | ˜ No Comments »

[11:24] Firecloud: oh shit meant to ask if you saw obama’s speech
[11:24] firecloud: specifically the part about dropping out of high school
[11:24] firecloud: no longer an option
[11:24] firecloud: “you don’t just let yourself down, you let your country down”
[11:24] firecloud: like damn
[11:25] Me: That was the highlight for me
[11:25] ME: it was his “ask what you can do for your country” moment
[11:25] firecloud: totally
[11:25] firecloud: i turned it off immediately after
[11:25] ME: and the high school is not enough was great too
[11:26] firecloud: i don’t want to hear what any of the talking heads have to say about it
[11:26] firecloud: it was really a moment
[11:26] ME: it was
[11:26] ME: wish I was covering on twitter but I was working
[11:26] firecloud: first time I’ve ever done that, really
[11:26] firecloud: ha yeah there were enough of those
[11:27] ME: yeah
[11:28] ME: it is such a contrast to the “just go out and spend” program
[11:28] ME: we are at war and all you want us to do is spend money
[11:29] firecloud: exactly!
[11:30] ME: the far right seems to have no real concept of national citizenship
[11:30] ME: everything is localized
[11:31] ME: very self absorbed

Digital Short: Property of the Queen

This SNL Digital Short (Property of the Queen) was one of the better ones this year. The Jonas Brothers were not too bad in it either.

ASK THE WIZARD!
