Well, maybe he was maybe he wasn’t trying to outsmart Derrick Ashong (D.N.A.) who was caught off guard at an Obama v Hillary debate in Hollywood. I know I’m not the only one who thought the reporter was trying to trip him up though. Regardless he managed to remain calm, cool and collected. Awesome!

Ok, I hope to address this issue much better(articulate I mean) and more in depth, but for now, I just want to make a quick clarification. If anyone dares to bring the issue of Hutus and Tutsis dying during the “Rwandan Genocide” at the hands of the RPF (Tutsi rebels), and actually holds the [...]

Ok, wtf? Is it just me? Or is there something seriously wrong with George Bush taking a vacation trip to Rwanda and praising its president for model behavior AFTER he was just indicted for war crimes and acts of genocide along with 40 members of his military personnel and other high ranking officials?
