The World Health Organization says that "all of humanity" is threatened by the Mexican flu, and Clown Prince Vice President Joe Biden told Americans this morning to avoid flying or riding the subway because of the fears over the Mexiflu.

Congress passed a budget yesterday that Democrats claim will cut the deficit. They'll still be spending more than they take in. It includes steps towards socializing medicine and tax hikes on the so-called "rich."
North Korea is threatening a nuclear test if the United Nations doesn't unwrite the angry letter they sent earlier this month about the last missile test.
What's wrong with saying that Western culture is superior to others? Plenty, on college campuses.
