Monsanto can run competitors out of business, sue farmers who don’t buy their products, and generally be underhanded bastards. But they can’t beat Mother Nature. Gee, thanks for helping to screw the rest of us agribusiness.

MLB’s silence on immigration law puzzling and disappointing – Melissa Segura – SI.com
Yet another call for Bud Selig and Major League Baseball to say something, anything on the Aryzona Gestapo law.
And here’s a sadly appropriate look at the issue:
Yes, those are actual crayons you can buy for your kids. Wish I had some when I was a little one.

Famous Greek protest dog hits the streets
This is a pretty neat story. Apparently in Greece a dog named Kanellos just shows up at protests, siding with those opposing the government.
Here is a gallery of photos of the dog, who sometimes gets into some dangerous situations.
Here is more coverage about him.
A brave dog to be sure, but no one seems to know if he’s got an owner or anything else on him.

Sure, the Cubs lost this game, but they sure they heck look like idiots in this game.
Lesson here? Play the game. Run the bases. Don’t be stupid.

More on how Major League Baseball is getting an earful for it’s silence on the issue.
Granted, the Player’s Association has made it’s disgust known and that’s a good thing. But scumbag Bud Selig is as silent as he is bereft of morals on any other issue.
I don’t expect anything I want to hear from him, but just say something dirtbag!
Washington Times Compares ‘Tea-Bagger’ To N-Word
Here’s the problem with Tea Baggers. First, they come up with their own nickname, which, frankly, is always a bad thing. Second, said nickname has dirty sexual connotations and they get pissed when people hilariously point this out to them. (Case in point, if some angry guy named Richard wanted to be called “Raging Dick” he should expect to be laughed at.)
Third, they are historically inaccurate in their platform – such as it is – and then can’t see the rank hypocrisy their stance puts them in after decades of Republican spending.
Fourth, they are chock full of racists and violent treason types and don’t do a damn thing to silence those who have sullied anything they said that might have made sense.
So what do you do when you’ve made a mockery of yourselves and are tied to racist traitors? What do you do when your race has been in power for hundreds of years, enslaving others and taking the land of those you didn’t put under the yoke? You claim you are being discriminated against.
Um, yeah, that’s not really going to work here idiots.
