When they get pissed, they don't suck it up and make fun. I shudder to think what gaffs like this in Israel will do.

It could be:



We'll save Australia.
Nobody'd want to hurt a kangaroo.
We'll build an all American amusement park there.
They have surfin', too.

Michelle Obama to go to London Olympics

Michelle Obama will lead the official US delegation to the Olympics in London next month.

First Lady Michelle Obama will lead the US presidential delegation to the opening ceremony of 2012 London Olympics, the White House said Friday.

Obama will be accompanied by Louis B Susman, US ambassador to Britain, and past US Olympians and Paralympians.

Obama has said she hopes the Games will be an inspiration for children to become more active as part of her on-going efforts to fight childhood obesity through exercise programs and healthy eating.
Other members of the delegation include Brandi Chastain, gold and silver medallist in women's football; Dominique Dawes, gold and bronze medallist in women's gymnastics; Gabriel Diaz de Leon, gold and silver medallist in Paralympic javelin, discus and shot put; Grant Hill, gold medallist in men's basketball; and Summer Sanders, gold, silver and bronze medallist in women's swimming.

I would like it if everyone registered at Ar15.com and posted their opinions about Mitt Romney to the area of the forum called "General Discussion." I joined the site without knowing much about it and thought of it as a political discussion forum used by people from the center and center-right. However, when I said that I was to the left of Mitt Romney on many issues and criticized his debacle in Britain, I was banned from the site ... even though I did not violate their code of conduct. I had enjoyed debating people respectfully and commenting on popular topics, but I was targeted by the idiotic administrators of the site. I would greatly appreciate if all of you made at least one account with that far-right website and then made your voices known on their forum. The moderators on the site harass people into leaving the site if they have even the slightest disagreement with them.
