Prefatory note: As some in our audience know, critics of fox hunts have been campaigning hard on British newspaper websites and various forums about bloodsports in England.

In honor of our War Criminal in Chief’s Birthday, I would like to offer my best wishes and heartfelt love to all the people he has cold-bloodedly murdered, my appreciation for the ass raping he […]
Bob Smith, Hipographia “I’m kind of sick of celebrities who go around hugging and entertaining the troops without realizing they’re also selling the wars.” GARY SINISE is one of those actors who seems to believe that actively “supporting the troops,” doing morale-boosting tours in the warzones where the Empire has deployed them, is the right […]
