Society is crumbling from within! Save yourself!

Today marked the first day that "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was officially repealed. A Clinton-era compromise (Republicans and centrist Democrats didn't want gay men and women serving in the military at ALL) that allowed gay people to serve in the military starting in the early 90s, DADT has utterly failed to make the military more stable, us safer, and cost the U.S. government millions of dollars in lost investment in trained personnel and more importantly the loss of tens of thousands of brave men and women who were willing to fight and die on behalf of our country.

This is indeed an historic moment; one that gets close to Truman's achievement of desegregating the Army in the 1950s. So here comes the mass moral decay of our country and the dissolve of unit cohesion, right? Watch the video below of a current U.S. soldier being unburdened by just telling the truth about who he is.

My favorite moment -

Soldier: "Do you want to tell Mom for me?
Dad: Laughter..."I don't believe so..."

Why we'll win the war on terror

This photo-journalism story by Rebecca Frankel about our four-legged warriors, is a must read/see.

I think this story proves that we can both be ruthless in our fight to hunt down and kill terrorists while maintaining our essential humanity. Because if by covering people in their own feces and other methods of torture is the only way we can win this long battle, then I believe we've already lost.

THIS is the way we win.

The Next President of the United States

...2016 style coming back to TV for a 2nd Season. You heard it here first. Mayor Cory Booker of Newark (the next President), just kicking butt and taking names. Bam!



For a little background, Cory Booker pretty much worked his butt off to drop the crime rate in Newark and under his leadership the city had its first month without a murder in 44 years.

U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

I'll let the goal speak for itself...



[Update: FIFA totally stinks and removed the footage of the USA goal. This reaction below, from Seattle, WA is just as good though. Enjoy :)]



[Update #2 - Found another version of the USA goal that FIFA hasn't gotten too...yet]
