  McCain fought for your freedom to say he should not be trusted with a box of matches.

  I thought he fought in Vietnam? That country never threatened American freedom.

  According to the rules of English grammar and usage, a pot plant is marijuana while a potted plant is any plant in a pot.

  So a pot pie is a pie that gets you high, and a pie baked in a deep dish, often with a top crust only, or…

  Cleo is a far more loyal, patriotic American than you will ever be, sorry.

  Erm, Cleo isn't an American of any flavour, sorry. I used to think we were on the same side, though, until the Dear Boy Leader told me I was 'against us' for not approving of the…

  Doesn't she know the stress-level goes down once the boy starts school?

  According to the morning news shows, she had stopped work (been laid off?) and so was no longer eligible for the after-school child-minding services. Added to which the lad was apparently a bit of a handful -…

  Voices of dissent (traitors)may find themselves in a Gitmo situation.

  Looks like SBV thinks a McCain-Palin White House will mean the end of American democracy and the right to free speech. Is that what American voters want? Is that what SBV wants?

  Yes, I really do hope that this time…

  OK, conspiracy theory time.

  The foreign submarine sneaking about in Japan's territorial waters was in fact the very latest, state-of-the-art US sub that is invisible to radar and was being tested to confirm that it could not be picked up on radar. Unfortunately no one told the crew of the…

  Bryde's whales grow to about 14 metres long and don't have 'periscope-like objects' sticking out of them.

  Isn't the Atago (the same ship that cut a fishing boat in half a while back, if my memory serves me right) supposedly equipped with all kinds of super-duper state-of-the-art radar stuff? Yet…

  Sarge, I've no idea if the crows squawk outside the window at 5am - I'm dead to the world at that time, and nothing wakes me! Probably training people is easier than training crows. Same with the Tokyo crows - train the people to put proper fitting lids on their…

  realist is absolutely right. The people now being targeted by the 'not long to go anyway' so-called health insurance scheme have been paying in for decades - there should be a good healthy nest-egg accumulated for them to draw from. There isn't, because the politicians let it be spent on…
