TD Bank: the Criminal Enterprise Targets Philadelphia Arts
I’ve written extensively about the criminal enterprise known as TD Bank, from the way they deliberately distorted their automatic payment system in order to wring late fees from homeowners while damaging their credit, to the way they participate in a program designed to provide loans to low/moderate-income households with bruised credit but set it up [...]

Amateur Flyover Video: BP Slick Covers Dolphins and Whales
Around the 6:33 mark, the narrator/filmer, John Wathen, comes to a pod of 36 dolphins stranded in oil, “struggling just to breathe”. Another 18 are discovered later, and then A GODDMAN FUCKING SPERM WHALE TRAPPED IN OIL UP TO ITS GODDAMN BLOWHOLE. “Across his back we could see red patches of crude as if [...]

“Ponies and Balloons”
Via Susie Madrak:
I was invited the following week to go behind “enemy lines.” They gave me, of all people, security clearance to go into the base of operations meetings in Venice, Louisiana eight days in. Open door invitation to sit like a fly on the wall. Can you believe it? It’s really going on. They [...]

This video is disturbing enough: by about the 21 second mark, you can see the fizzing and bubbling in the Pensacola oil surf.
But the next video is probably worse. Christina, my g/f, is from the Gulf Coast, and one of her first reactions to the spewing leak was that is was going to get [...]
Shorter Joe Biden: It Is OK For Israel To Kill American Citizens
that’s the only way i can add this:
US Vice President Joe Biden has offered the Obama administration’s strongest defence of Israel’s Gaza flotilla raid to date, in a interview on US television this evening, saying: “Israel has an absolute right to deal with its security interest.”

“When we found this dolphin it was filled with oil. Oil was just pouring out [...]
BP: Fun With Screen Shots
Just a quick update to the post below: using If It Was My Home, I sited the oil spill in Kent, where Royal Asshole Tony Hayward makes his home. Then I zoomed out to get a fuller view:
As you can see, most of southern England is destroyed, including the English Channel. Belgium’s coastline [...]
Read More..>>Gulf Coast Oil Disaster: Obama’s Very Real Culpability
Now with fixed link
The New York Times asks if this is Obama’s Oil Disaster, and every contributor either dodges the issue or says “No.”
With all due respect, that is a load of BULLSHIT. While BP certainly bears the lion’s share of the culpability, Obama is by no means blameless.
