Aggressive common sense, politics and whatever else - as I see it.
Dinosaurs, nuclear codes, actuary tables and banning books. Matt Damon lays out his arguments against Palin. It seems Iranian media is pleased with Damon’s statement as well. Strangely, they almost seem more impartial than the U.S. media.

Unless you have been hiding under a rock at the DNC you have most likely heard about McCain selecting Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his VP pick. The timing is great too, the media is nearly ignoring Barack Obama today and concentrating on McCain-Pailin.

I can’t wait for the attacks from Barack Hussein Obama and Move On.
