Falklands

Argentina and the UK are about to negotiate ownership of the Falkland Islands. Of course, Argentina is sure to get them this time. There is no way they could get them militarily but they will diplomatically. It's just a matter of settling on a price. By the way, this nice topless woman will not be part of the negotiations, in case you were wondering.

Hypocrisy

From a news story on the internet: “NEW YORK – Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who has pushed an ambitious green agenda and cast himself as a national environmental leader, routinely runs afoul of his own anti-pollution policy by letting his official SUVs idle, sometimes for more than an hour. Bloomberg recently admitted he had done little to reduce energy use at his Upper East Side mansion, other than turning off unnecessary lights and opening windows in warm weather. He only recently had his roof painted white, an idea he has advocated. Other environmental leaders have been criticized for not doing what they ask of citizens. In 2007, Al Gore retrofitted his Nashville home to reduce an average $1,200 monthly electric bill. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, credited with popularizing gas-guzzling Hummers before entering politics, has made over the two that he owns into more fuel-efficient models.” This is not at all surprising. The Electocracy behaves as badly as the Aristocracy. I think she said “Let them eat cake,” no? However, this topless woman is just an innocent bystander.
