My friends, never before in my lifetime have I witnessed an America so divided. Republicans fighting Democrats. Libertarians fighting environmentalists. Whigs not fighting anyone but just happy to be mentioned.
This is why President Barack Obama comes under such criticism. He was elected under the false hope that he’d invite the economy over for a beer and have it leave a bull market behind. But Obama does not have all the answers, nor the ability to turn thing around. In fact, no man has the ability to turn this great nation around. Except one. Levi Johnston.
You see, according to our friends at Towleroad, “The adult website StraightCollegeMen.com has made an offer to Levi Johnston following his statement last week that he’d pose nude for the right price.” Basically, the site is offering Johnston $25k to masturbate, an activity that normally pays him $25k less than that.
My friends, upon seeing this news, a cosmic truth struck me - Levi Johnston’s wang could truly save this nation.
Yes, I believe that Americans of all stripes are ready to come together as one, united under the wang of Johnston. Levi’s wang will bring us altogether as one. And with each stroke of his magnificent manhood, our patriotism to build up, spurting to glorious heights and leaving us all breathless with ecstasy. Then we’ll nap.
But in all seriousness, nothing could conceivably showcase the utter stupidity of our political landscape than having a guy who less than a year ago was showcase during the RNC Convention now make a whack vid. It just brings it all together.
So, my friends, let us all get behind Levi and push him toward a total wang revelation followed by a round of self-love. Levi Johnston’s naked, videotaped wang will heal us. How is not important. Just know that Levi’s naked wang flesh will save us all. Trust me.
Update: America Wins! Levi to pose for Playgirl!

Prompted by Peggy Noonan's claim in The Wall Street Journal that "we are in the midst of the worst Washington scandal since Watergate," Andrew Sullivan steps forward to defend Pres. Obama's honor. "Can she actually believe this?," he asks incredulously.

Congress is ramping up a new round of sanctions against Iran, ignoring the Obama administration's request to let diplomacy run its course.
In back-to-back hearings this week, lawmakers on key House and Senate panels put the State and Treasury departments on notice that their patience is wearing thin after the latest round of talks last month failed to produce a deal. Both chambers have legislative efforts in the works – the House foreign affairs panel will vote next week – but the administration is warning against any moves that could undermine international support for the existing sanctions against Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program [....]

An article that summarizes the recent work of Ya-Ping Zhang, a geneticist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who has led an international network of scientists who have compared pieces of DNA from different canines which is pointing to the theory that dogs domesticated themselves.
But the article's message is not just what it first appears to be. When you get to the concluding paragraphs there are some real though provokers:
[....] SLC6A4 may have played a crucial part in this change, because serotonin influences aggression.
To test these ideas,...

On Friday, chaotic clashes broke out in Georgia as an angry mob -- comprised mainly of young men but also including robed priests and some women -- descended on a gay rights rally commemorating International Day Against Homophobia. A day earlier, the head of the Georgian Orthodox Church had demanded that authorities stop the rally, calling it a "violation of the majority's right."
According to EurasiaNet, the mob, which numbered...

Federal Security Service spokesman breaches protocol as he accuses US agency of crossing 'red line' in its recruitment efforts
Sorry for posting two so quickly. This one just got topical, tho ;) (See update)
I think I speak for most of us here at dagblog when I say you should never feel guilty for posting too many blog entries. Posting entries of inferior quality should be a guilt-inducing act (I have experience on that one), but not simply posting too many.
"Posting entries of inferior quality"
These words are foreign to me.
Wolfie, maybe you need to watch some Wow Wow Wuzby. I think your self esteem may need boosting.
There's a country whose names I can think of, which start with a U and an S, and if you live there, you might want to get the fark out now. Quickly. Pronto. ASAP. If you happen to live in said country, you may want some tips on where to go. So, as a friend, I offer the following information, intended to ease your decision-making process during this stressful time. I'm sure you all know by now that Canada has universal health care. And that most of us speak English. And that we're friendly, work hard, play hard, and generally offer you the best chance to live your previous lives with minimal disruption and culture shock. One other thing you should probably know though.
If you try to enter, we'll shoot you. No, really. You're tainted. It runs too deep. You have been warned.
Enter at your own risk. Bill O'Reilly on Canada:
To Canada's credit, they raised the age of consent to 16 in 2008. (It had been set at 14 in the godfearing days of 1892.) For legal adolescent sex, secular Europe is still your best best. For instance, the age of consent is 12 in Vatican City.
damn, i really think i may move. And it's not even JUST the age of consent thing. The free heroin is also attractive.
Uh, who the hell is having sex in Vatican City? The entire population is under a vow of celibacy.
(Please don't answer that if it has anything to do with 12 year olds.)
I'm pretty sure the Swiss Guard aren't under any such vow of celibacy. A vow of sillibacy though, perhaps.
Okay, you're probably right. But have you seen their outfits? Those guys are definitely not getting laid.
I think Playgirl's market is also mostly men.
Because the men who read it imagine themselves as girls.
I did a Google search on stubs and chubs. I encountered Chubs wubs Stubs.
Chubs wubs Stubs sounds like Larry's favorite TV show.
Did I cross the line with rhyming euphemisms and dick jokes?
They're busy shoving crap into the U-Haul with a map of the Trans-Canada Highway on the dash. So am I. See you in a few days!
Nah. Just sounds like Wuzby.
