This cartoon was made in 1948. Perhaps a bit ahead of its time especially with the mention of racial division. The nation was segregated back then, but the point stands even today as racial division is an issue.

Of course that’s not the only issue involved therein however the messages contained here is as important today as it was then. Especially since America was about to enter a cold war with the Communist block.

Steven Crowder puts the gangsta rap genre on its head!

Excessive praise can be unwelcome and embarrassing. Just ask President Obama, who awoke Friday to discover that he had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize before he had completed even a year in office. Obama managed to be both abashed and appreciative in his response, but no amount of self-effacing spin can obscure the oddity of this award.

You know what this award was an oddity for certain. It’s an award with an agenda, but let’s just see what he does with it.

Not sure how he earned this honor!

The State Prosecutor’s Office filed official corruption charges against former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert Sunday. This is the first time in Israel’s history that a former PM will face a criminal indictment.

The indictment includes charges of fraud, breach of trust, falsifying corporate records and tax evasion, as well as a charge of fraudulently obtaining benefits to which the State attributes aggravated circumstances.

The indictment spans three of the scandals the former prime minister was entangled in: The Talansky case, the Rishontours double billing case and the Investment Center case. The indictment does not include bribery charges, despite police recommendations in the matter.

I understand that most of these charges does not revolve around his time in office as PM. I saw that in another article on this case. It seems political corruption is everywhere. I just so happen to live in a state where it’s certainly expected.
