President Obama on Letterman, 9/18/12; go to 26:30
Susan Rice, talking points... talking points, Susan Rice... That's all you hear about in regards to the response to the attacks on American facilities in Benghazi, Libya last September. And I just saw this tweet from the AP:

They have Susan Rice on the Sunday shows on September 16th going off some CIA talking points blaming the anti-Islam video; which is the only thing I hear people talking about. Maybe I'm missing it, but I haven't heard anything about the President going on Letterman with pretty much the same talking points two days after Rice was on the Sunday shows.
"Here's what happened: we had a video that was released by somebody who lives here, sort of a shadowy character, who has an extremely offensive video directed at Mohammad and Islam... so, this caused great offense in much of the Muslim world, but what also happened was extremists and terrorists used this as an excuse to attack a variety of our embassies... - President Barack Obama 26:30 into the above video"
It had nothing to do with the video. So, either the President was given the wrong information too, or a month and a half before an election the President went on a show that he knew the host wouldn't call him out on anything and blatantly lied. I actually hope he blatantly lied; if the CIA is giving the President wrong information we have bigger problems.
I think Obama also went on The View the same day and told the same lie; but I, of course, don't watch that show. No, not because I'm a guy, you sexist, because I have a day job.

Just fantastic.
"Hobo with Pinwheel" by Cory
I lived in San Francisco for about 10 years, and I still work here, and I still spend the majority of my commute walking here. So, here are 10 of the things I've learned from one of the finest cities in the world:
1) Stepping in people poop is worse than stepping in dog poop, by a lot.
2) It's okay to spend $13 on a cocktail if the bartender is a mixologist.
3) My Dodgers suck because the Dodgers suck.
4) People who ride bicycles are better than me.
5) Tinfoil-wrapped burritos get steam baths.
6) People who hold clipboards for good causes are soulless demons.
7) Mr. Pizza Man saves lives.
8) Women who wear sneakers with their suits to work in the morning are pissed off about something.
9) Gay guys have more fun then everyone else.
10) Being a hobo sometimes looks awesome.
