I may be spending too much time on GeekDad but this discussion fascinates me.
I suppose you could always refer to the chart.

Seems like the company is missing a “K”
Turns out you can be fired at an office supply company for voting for a black guy. This is what a guy found out at (K)KK Office Supplies last year after his CEO “jokingly” told his employees that he’d fire people for voting for Obama.
After bringing in around $300,000 in new business, he got sacked weeks after the election. He says this has much to do with him being a vocal Obama supporter.
If that’s why he was fired, he’s got a case. I figure he put himself on a short list and that’s a tad harder to prove.
That said, I work for a bunch of conservative Aussies and one Kiwi who is actually very American conservative and not that European and First World kind of conservative that makes you a raging liberal by Republican standards. The company donates to the GOP against the will of many of the workers here. We have some Talibangelical prayer circle sanctioned by the higher ups that has a calendar where they pray for us “heathens”. Apparently I’ve been on that.
So yeah, I’m smart enough not to wave a huge “O” flag up in here. If asked, I’m not going to lie, but I’m also not going out of my way to get fired either.
Bill O’Reilly’s Loofah/Falafel Lawsuit Turns Five: Remember Your Favorite Quotes (NSFW POLL)
You know yesterday when I kind of almost said a nice thing about Bill O’Reilly?
Yeah, with this flashback in history of Bill the Sexual Predator, I’m taking that comment back now.

Republicans adding few new voters in Nevada – Monday, Oct. 12, 2009 | 2 a.m. – Las Vegas Sun
All things considered, this is a good sign.
The less racist teabagger traitors in my city, the better, as far as I’m concerned.
Flamenco And Hip-Hop Unite In Granada : NPR
I am still not sure what to make of this but I may eventually like it.
Basically it is a mix of flamenco and hip hop. Strange, no? Check out the actual album here.
O’Reilly: Why Obama’s Nobel Prize, Deserved or Not, Is Good for America | The FOX Nation
You aren’t gonna catch me linking to these cretins often, but Bill O’Reilly takes off his asshat hat for a moment and remembers he’s an American, and the wingnuts he relies on for a paycheck sell him out as a traitor.
I honestly feel bad for him in a “now you know how far thirty pieces of silver will go” kind of way. The answer is “not damned far” but he should have known better than to throw in with irrational traitors.
He was respectful to the President and they’re planning to hang the guy, hopefully in effigy.
A Volley Between Fox News and Obama Administration – NYTimes.com
“As they are undertaking a war against Barack Obama and the White House, we don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.”
– Anita Dunn, White House Communications Director, discussing FAUXNews
Finally, the White House realizes who is airing the poisonous treason against them and will, hopefully, keep calling them out on it.
Trips to Mars in 39 Days | Universe Today
Holy crap! You see, this is what amazes me about science. You get stuck in a rut thinking there’s only one way to do things and then you find out it might only take five weeks to get to Mars.
I mean, yeah, sure, I can’t take more than a week off right now, but what if we’re all able to have a shot at getting to the Red Planet for some extreme tourist once we get old?
Obama Becomes Japan’s English Teacher – NYTimes.com
I love this story. While FAUXNews and Rimjob are firing up traitors and race war advocates, our president is English-language study material in some parts of the world.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if all the Obama-haters would have to put up with foreign folks speaking English in an Obama-like cadence for the rest of their lives?
