"Mayor" McChin is an inept goof.
It will unfold painfully and become apparent to all over the next few years but you read it here. First.

It's Bogota, not Bogata.

I was listening to that DADT piece on NPR on my way home yesterday. I almost slammed my brakes on 1-5 in frustration (probably fruitless since I am driving a 2010 Toyota Camry...).

Duncan Hunter is an idiot. The reporter's verbal reaction was one of astonishment and "wtfism."

Que tonterias escriben los gringos. Tanto mamen, ai!

No saben mucho. Aun los hipsters no pueden evitar errores muy basicos. Tambien escriben "Columbia" .... ese ignorancia es una forma del racismo, no? Nunca escribirian "Frence" o "Ingland" or "Jirmany."

Parece que no les molesta tambien, guey. Son totalmente sin verguenza!

Muy el "Ugly American," no?

Jesus H Christ - if you are going to post a link to something about Colombia or Bogota, LOOK AT THE FUCKING HEADLINE before you post it so you spell it right.

@5 is right, vergonzosos.

You can't win the Senate without picking up 9 seats.

No chance of that.

@8: Go ahead and believe that, at your own peril.

It's really eight seats - Lieberman doesn't count. And yes, I can see that happening very easily.

@9 - then go believe we aren't actually attacking al-Qaeda in Pakistan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Somalia.

Here's a news flash, that's all black budget ops. It's the fourth war, after the Iraq War, Afghanistan War, and Drug War.
