teleprompter - while I'm sure the basic details are correct, how much credibility should we give to a right-wing military blogger who uses such sophisticated phrases as "uninformed ass clown" in his posts?
Not much, as far as I'm concerned. The end result is what matters, and your President is…

I suppose it was "inappropriate" because just like the Fuji presenter who implied that Sumo is sometimes fixed (which anyone with a knowledge of Japanese culture and a basic understanding of statistics would conclude that it is) he was verging into a controversial area. Frankly, it's a good idea -…
