Dyslexia, Thomas Frank, Greg Palast, Sibel Edmonds, & Michelle Alexander



Special Commentary by Big Dan: "I have dyslexia: I keep forgetting if you 'spring back'/'fall forward', or 'spring forward'/fall back'!!! This happens all the time! Once my clocks were off TWO HOURS! When I used to go to church, that was our reminder that the clocks were changed - we'd get into church and there'd be no one there, we'd all look at each other and then scream: 'THE CLOCKS CHANGED!!!' I'll be here all ze veek..."

Charges on Gaza boy "human shield"...plus Vatican pedophile cover-up...what's worse: the corporate world or the religious world???


Two Israeli soldiers will face charges in an Israeli court for allegedly using a young Palestinian boy as a human shield during the country's three-week bombardment in Gaza in 2008. Majed Al Rubah, 10, says Israeli troops forcefully took him from his family and made him carry out life-threatening tasks during military operations. Many other Palestinians say they have gone through similar experiences, but this is only the second indictment Tel Aviv has brought against its own soldiers. Human rights groups have accused Israel of committing numerous war crimes against Palestinians during the war on Gaza - in which nearly 1400 people have died and most of the strip was left in ruins...plus the non-stop Catholic pedophilia...THE FONZ SAYS, "AAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY"!!!!!!!!
