"United States... you need to boost your production of wheat and corn, since China has a drought. BTW... cut your citizens' rations in half, since they're so fat, and give that to the Chinese too. The world needs labor, ya know."
That's why!
Holy crap. People don't "get" the Onion. It's dry humor (humour in OVM and EL's case). If you don't get it, move along to the next thread. Hashing it out over some pseudo-news blog is tantamount to arguing with someone over whether peas or carrots taste better.
If the world has a government, who do you complain to about it? What do you do to change it? Who would ultimately be in charge of it? *cough banks cough*
You don't like something, and you protest. They mow you down. Why? Because they can! And no one can do a thing about it. THAT'S why people...
Can you believe they put Cobain #12 on Rolling Stone's top 100 guitarist list? He couldn't play the licks off of Santana's Tootsie Pop, for godsake, whom they put at #15!
Well duh! Because my god is a flamboyant god. He would never make something as simple as a sphere or ellipse. A dodecahedron is just his style. I know if I were a god, I'd make a planet like that too. :cool:

Ron...
No... cancer cells already exist in our bodies. They lie dormant until they mutate, for some reason or another. Then they become cancer as we know it. So, like Paul said, it doesn't cause cancer; but rather it can cause the mutation that creates cancer.
But there are many things that mutate...
Oh I know. How's that USSR doing for ya?
He was a conservative. He also trusted that Congress would keep their word, twice! He was screwed on it both times. He could do as much as a president could do with the Congress he had.
Cute summation. He's also one of those crackpots who believes the Federal Reserve is a continuing threat to our liberties. He also believes in that one-world government garbage. Can you believe he's trying to warn us of that phantom? Geez... conspiracies abound!
He can't help who likes him...
