Most moronic Dutch NYE fact
One of the most utterly retarded facts about my homecountry is the fact that people collectively spend hundreds of millions of euros on fireworks.

Obama to Ban Gulf Drilling for Seven Years →
evilteabagger:
Oil rig explodes, ban drilling. Airplanes get hijacked, ban box cutters. Dude lights underwear on fire, introduce nude body scanners.
Notice a pattern?
There’s a pattern for sure. But seriously, do you honestly think a GOP president would not have done the same thing? Probably except for the drilling ban because oil goes above anything for them. Other than that? There...
