But if that crazy person who runs Atlas Shrugged is right and Barack Obama really is the son of Malcolm X, that would make my day. Honestly, who wouldn't give Malcolm props for that one? And think there's anyway we can fit Tupac into the bloodline? Or maybe Obama actually is Tupac? You know that whole shooting was some bullshit, right?

WTF Halloween Costumes?
As sure as summer turns to fall, there are some stories that are dusted-off and rehashed at a certain point of the year.
There's the back-to-school helicopter-parents stories, the "what's the next got-to-have-it toy for Xmas", and the ever popular FOXNEWS stories on "the War on Christmas" (It starts earlier and earlier every year. It's sad, really, the commercialization of the War on Christmas.)
The other chestnut is "OMG look how whorish the girls' Halloween costumes are!" Now, being a virile, warm blooded man, I can say I have no problem with the costumes, and think if a woman wants to dress sexily, so be it1. If my wife were to dress-up as, say the Sexy Strawberry Doll, I'd be A-OK with that.
