TAKE ME TO THE RIOT
The Egyptian government has cut off internet and cell phone service in the country on the third day of protests from the millions of citizens who are fed up with the Mubarak regime and without a functioning democracy.
But now that the government has shut off the internet, they’re interfering with my article on GW kids studying abroad in Egypt! I can’t contact them! Bitches! The damn...

I hate my governor.
gaywrites:
Florida governor Rick Scott has decided to start his term off on a friendly note by speaking out against workplace discrimination…sort of.
Scott signed an executive order to protect against workplace discrimination on the bases of race, gender, creed, color and national origin. A few categories that are missing: sexual orientation, gender identity, disability,...

“The size of government doesn’t tell you what you need to know; the social and moral content of government action does. The budgeteers and the technicians may not like it, but it’s the values inculcated by policies that matter most.
