Libyan militia accused of torturing to death ambassador to France
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/…Human Rights Watch said that Omar Brebesh, a career diplomat who was cultural attache and then ambassador to France between 2004 to 2008, was brought in for routine questioning in Tripoli over his work for the former regime.
His body turned up at a hospital in Zintan, the town two hours' drive to the south-west that was a hub of last year's revolution, beaten, bruised and with some of its toenails removed.

I keep thinking I imagined the whole Nobel Peace Prize thing:

- Obama couldn't have vetoed NDAA, you know that right?DrBombay
- And since there is no line-item veto what was he to do? You should really blame congress.DrBombay
- That is what smart people would do.DrBombay
- It's his pride and joy, he'll probably be remembered for that longer than anything else. If you say so...********

- And if you've noticed some of my, let's say more moderate posts, I blame Congress just as much, if not more. They suck too********
- too, just hard to keep up with the entire lot. Bush took a beating and he sucked, so should this clown.********
- You defended Bush daily.DrBombay

More questions are being raised about presidential candidate Mitt Romney's religion after it was revealed that he helped baptise his adamantly atheist father-in-law years after the man had died.
Edward Roderick Davies was Ann Romney's father and died in 1992 after living as a staunch atheist all his life.Recently-discovered records show that, in keeping with their controversial tradition of posthumously baptising non-Mormons, a ceremony was held to invite Mr Davies into the Church of Latter Day Saints one year after he died.
The practice of performing baptisms for the dead has drawn criticism after the Mormon church began doing so for well-known Catholics- including former popes- and Jews- including Holocaust survivors.
- They don't give a fuck. Religion gives you the 'right' to do what the fuck you want, because it's "what God wants". Fuck them.mikotondria3

Bachmann: ‘I was the perfect candidate’
http://www.washingtonpost.com/bl…
The Minnesota congresswoman, who dropped her White House bid after placing sixth in the Jan. 3 Iowa caucuses, told Bloomberg TV’s Al Hunt in an interview that aired over the weekend that GOP primary voters had their chance, but they missed it.
HUNT: You are remaining above the fray. But you sat in, in almost a dozen debates with these people. You have a feel for them. Let me ask you this. Who is the more conservative of these four candidates left?
BACHMANN: I was. I was the perfect candidate.
HUNT: Right, so who’s the second -
BACHMANN: When I — when I went out there, and so, you know —
HUNT: Who’s the second most conservative?
BACHMANN: America had their chance with the perfect candidate.

Clint Eastwood ad wrong; U.S. taxpayers lost $1.3 billion on Chrysler bailout
http://money.cnn.com/2011/07/21/…- Why is conservative media going apeshit about this? It's a fucking car commercial.waterhouse
- It's not a political ad. It's not even the most upbeat thing I've ever seen. Besides, Eastwood's an outspoken conservative.waterhouse
- Clint leans right, but that's BS. It's your $ and my $, going to bailouts. Isn't that part of OWS's creedo?********
- Oh, I understand. You don't want there to be any success whatsoever to be associated with the auto bailout.waterhouse
- Detroit is NOT on the comeback, that's a bunch of crap Clint. Whom was the councilman asking for bailout?********
- Well, well even fucking Bushie would do it again: http://www.detroitne…********
- Isn't that part of OWS's creedo? Get rid of bailouts? If you can even take them seriously as a unified group, that a fucking joke.********
- joke********
- I don't speak for OWS. I'm one of the majority in this country who feels that the auto bailout was necessary.waterhouse
- GM is the top selling carmaker in the world right now. You'd rather the employees be homeless apparently.DrBombay
- So you and tyour tea party buddies could sit around and jerk each other off about it.DrBombay
- funny, Eastwood did the commercial too********
- Circle jerk, NO! But how many bailouts does it fucking take? If Bush were in power and had done it, you'd be up in arms!!********
- The auto industry is an example of where the unions need to go-straight to hell. Only reason the auto industry is doing well is because they are paying wages that make sense for the skill involved and are now more competitive. Unions strangle industries like a parasite sucking them dry of everything they got and more.********

Obama’s made-up jobless numbers
http://www.washingtontimes.com/n…When it comes to the unemployment rate, it’s nice to be president.
Sure, it wasn’t so nice for President Obama in October 2009, when the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics declared the rate was 10 percent. But exactly a year from Election Day 2012, the rate began a precipitous plunge, first to 8.9 percent, then the next month, to 8.7, then to 8.5. And just last week, the BLS said the rate had fallen all the way down to 8.3 percent.
If the spectacular “recovery” keeps up at the same pace, the rate will be 6.3 percent by Nov. 6. It hasn’t been that low since — well, all but four of the 96 months George W. Bush was in office. But you get the point. America is back!! Woo-hoooo!!
So, spectacular news for the president, yes? And fantastic news for America, right? Uh, yes. And absolutely no.
See, the BLS boys, no doubt at the president’s direction, are busy rewriting the rules, and they’re in uncharted, and unchecked, territory. The federal government Friday declared that the U.S. had created — not “saved,” mind you, “created” — 243,000 jobs. Amazing, right?
But wait, what’s that little asterisk here? A record 1.2 million Americans left the labor force? 1.2 million?! Well, where’d they go? Oh, just left? Well, OK. But no, wait. What does that even mean?
- yeah, you said that yesterday in so many words. he's obviously not being truthful. tell me which president is, btw?********

Obama changes tune, urges fundraisers to back super PAC
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/…President Barack Obama's campaign is asking top fundraisers to support a Democratic-leaning outside group that is backing the president's re-election bid, reversing Obama's opposition to "super" political action committees, which can spend unlimited amounts of cash to influence elections.
Obama's campaign urged wealthy fundraisers in a Monday night conference call to support Priorities USA, a super PAC led by two former Obama aides that has struggled to compete with the tens of millions of dollars collected by Republican-backed outside groups.
Obama has opposed the Supreme Court's 2010 Citizens United decision that stripped away some limits on campaign contributions. The new super PACs can't coordinate directly with campaigns, but many have played a major role in the Republican primary contests, raising millions of dollars to use in negative advertising in early contests such as Iowa, South Carolina and Florida.
