The daily show
Go now and watch this and this. While you're at it, also watch this.
It's hilarious.
While you may or may not agree with the White House's policy of rewarding unprecedented idiocy... that the christian right in the US have the balls to claim that HIV can even be transmitted "via sweat and tears" and that 31% of all homosexual teens have AIDS... it just makes me sick.
This is sad
If you want to become disillusioned with the European Union, you just have to realize that the pro-patent lobby, after loosing their majority in the parliament has now scheduled their directive for adoption by, and get this, the agriculture and fishery council.
As an so-called uncontroversial A-List item, they actually can do that...
This might even be illegal, as, with the revised votes, the directive doesn't have a majority anymore. Also, the German Bundestag and others seem to have withdrawn their support. In my mind, the pro-patent lobby are bad loosers, nothing more.
