Radical Catholic Mullah Randall Terry is profiled in today's Washington Post. Terry used to be a prominent leader of the anti-abortion movement. Now, he is just a crazy loser whom no one likes.

Ron Paul gets shit for being the sole "no" vote on most popular, entirely symbolic bills, so when we read that there was one vote against a plaque honoring slaves at the Capitol, we thought we knew who was responsible.

Former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, the "architect" of the Vietnam War, died this morning. He was 93.

Soon-to-be-former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford just admitted to cheating on his wife. He used to be a Congressman, back in... oh, look, the '90s. What did he think about Mr. Clinton?

Mark Sanford's press conference. Did you watch that performance? Wow. He just... he just kept going. How did it compare to some classic political meltdowns of the past? Favorably!

Everyone knows (many people don't know) that the Nazis also exterminated homosexuals, gypsies, and Jehovah's Witnesses, so there is no reason to include that information on a Brooklyn Holocaust Memorial. Assemblyman Dov Hikind is fighting to keep the memorial pure!

Here is author Elie Wiesel, speaking at Buchenwald, where he was once imprisoned, and where his father died. Wiesel toured Buchenwald with President Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Let's hope people pay attention.

So apparently Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel have a frosty relationship, because Obama doesn't rub her back all the time or what-have-you. And that is why Obama went to Dresden, to "snub" Merkel, and to apologize for World War II.

"Twenty years ago when I made Roger & Me, I tried to warn people about what was ahead for General Motors. Had the power structure and the punditocracy listened, maybe much of this could have been avoided." Hah, really?

General Motors is bankrupt. Whoops. It was probably going to happen no matter what, but lots of people hoped that bankruptcy would remain a threat that would encourage everyone to band together to save the company. Who is to blame for the death of the American auto industry?

Someone placed a personal ad in the Warren (Penn.) Times-Observer calling for Barack Obama's assassination. But to understand the ad you have to know history and stuff, so no one at the paper really got it. It's kind of like The Da Vinci Code.

No one even noticed, but the guy who used to be the president, Chimpy McHitler, has disappeared. Is he in heaven? Or jail? No, worse: he is in Canada. George W. Bush will never return to America.

This week, a former New York Times editor revealed that the NYT got handed the Watergate storywell before the Washington Post had it, but they just...forgot about it, or something. Now the full scope of this foolishness is coming out; the comedy of errors continues to this day:

After 47 million years, scientists unearthed a fossil which may be the long-awaited missing link between primates and mankind. They immediately turned the fossil into a huge media whore that we're already sick of.

Dan Baum chronicled the loss of his New Yorker gig on Twitter. His story—and the New Yorker's own reaction—is a great reminder that America's best magazine still runs itself like a secret society.

Everyone knows Vincent Van Gogh cut his ear off and gave it to a prostitute because he was kind of pathetic. But a new study suggests Van Gogh might've been awesome!

The new Harper's has a really scary piece on the evangelical Christian radicalization of the US Military, and to celebrate, here is an ex-Navy chaplain issuing a fatwa against one of its subjects.

Quickly, don your paper masks! Stay indoors! The dirty Mexican pig influenza is here, to sicken you! Wocka wocka. Did you know that America had another swine flu panic, in 1976? Let's reminisce, and laugh:

FYI, newsmedia, we are only that many days into Barack Obama's president. And fyi again: the "first 100 days" is a meaningless marker.

Once GM and Chrysler finally die, there will be no more pension plans left in the entire country (except for former presidents and members of congress). Sorry!
