Yeah Mona Eltahawy's been all over the place the past couple weeks with good info, but Bill trying to paint the Muslim Brotherhood as part of the shadowy Islamist cabal really fell flat and made him look like a fool. Then again there hasn't yet been any American who has said anything worth listening to about the Egypt thing, because we don't know poo poo about poo poo.

Then you have the teachers union in the US who can't fire idiots. You have to diddle a 10-year-old to be fired. Incompetence is not enough.


Unionized teachers can be fired like anyone else but due process has to be adequately demonstrated, i.e. a reason has to be given and evidence presented. In at-will states like any other employee teachers can get shitcanned without having to be given a reason.

That's Canada though. Here, if you work for the government you will get paid worse than in the private sector.

It's a little more complicated than that. For what few jobs there exists a direct comparison between public and private sector, such as janitors, the pay for public sector is higher counting benefits and pension. But that's because 36% of public sector employees are unionized compared to about 7% in the private sector. High skill public sector workers, anything requiring college degrees, are underpaid compared to the private sector. At the federal level those make up a very slight majority of jobs compared to less than a quarter of private sector jobs, so federal employee wages are higher comparatively. However, at the state and local level, where high skill jobs are in the minority, the average wage is about $22,000/year. Likewise over a third of public sector employees are over 50 compared to less than a quarter in the private sector, and pay raises in the public sector are mainly determined by time in service, often guaranteed by law.

I'm not sure what perspective Adam Carolla has that's markedly different from the countless other rich white assholes who think they have the world figured out with the exact same opinions.

This entire show has been nonstop obnoxious and the two people who actually Know A Thing have been totally shut out.

I'm watching on a time delay but gently caress this Israeli ambassador dickbag.

Fair warning it's all downhill from there.







"Petawatt?! Whoa there professor easy with the metric, this is America!" "What's that, energy provided by a child?"



This is what you have to look forward to.

Two idiots yelling at each other.


Fun fact: Ed Schultz was a right wing talk radio guy for half his career until someone even crazier started working at a rival station in Fargo and beating him in the ratings, so he switched political identity.

I guess it's worth noting Steele seems to have dropped the Bootsy Collins shuck & jive routine; maybe we'll get a nice tell-all when he gains the rest of his self-respect.

Paul Ryan has a very Guy Smiley-ish quality to him, though I think they or someone else trotted him out to ridicule Mitt Romney in the '08 election.

I want to hit Breitbart with a blue whale. God this is horrible.

Yeah I can't believe he's even on the show. Then again he's on CNN.


And then again he's allowed to walk out of his house every morning without fear of death, so there is no justice in the universe.
