POLL FINDS EIGHTY PERCENT OF SERIAL KILLERS VOTE REPUBLICAN Washington, D.C. – Ed Gein, Ted Bundy, David Berkowitz, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer. For decades those names, and the names of dozens of others, have stalked the American consciousness. Until recently when terrorists became the boogeymen of a nation, the serial killer was the monster of our nightmares, the demon of our subconscious, stalking us at every street corner, along every poorly lit alleyway. While the reality of serial killers was always far from the fantasy, the existence of real life monsters served to provide us with an outlet for deepest fears. TEA PARTY PROTESTS PORTRAYAL IN CAPTAIN AMERICA, ZIGGY Washington, D.C. –  For almost 70 years one person has stood as the hallmark of American patriotism. Created by Joe Simon and comic legend Jack Kirby, Captain America was the embodiment of American pride at a time when the country most needed it. While much has changed from those days when the world was at war, the success of the comic has not as evidenced by the impending release of a big screen version of the red, white, and blue hero.

SCOTT BROWN ELECTION PROMPTS RETIREMENT TALK FROM OBAMA Washington, D.C. – No one ever told Barack Obama that being the President of the United States was going to be an easy job. Obama too likely never believed for a second that the day-to-day stresses of the job wouldn’t get to him. There have been too many men before him to lead as example for anyone to believe that such a dream job would be dreamy. Lincoln and slavery, Truman and the bomb, Kennedy and Cuba, all examples of how tough the job can really be, all examples Obama surely learned from. MIKE HUCKABEE COMES OUT IN DEFENCE OF CANNIBALISM Washington, D.C. – There are a few crimes that stand above all others as the most vile and depraved acts that a human being can commit against another. Rape, murder, child abuse, genocide, and cannibalism are amongst the most despised and reviled of all crimes in modern society. Part of that revulsion has to do with changing values rather than an embedded sense of morality, despite what religion may teach us. Rape for example was common and accepted up until women’s rights came to forefront. Child sexual abuse is still common in certain areas of the world and was openly practiced in first world nations such as Denmark as late as 1980. Morality, like everything else, changes with society.
