News Round Up

Here’s your Monday News roundup.

From the department of futility, it seems that over the last decade the US Government has spent a billion dollars to try to get teenagers to stop having sex.  Brilliant use of that money, don’t they know they have a hugely expensive and incredibly wrong war going on?  No not the war on drugs, the other one.  No, not the war on the environment, the other one.

And remember when I said that using The Daily Show and Colbert for my primary sources of current events was a bad idea?  Well it turns out that it may not be such a bad idea, in fact a recent study shows that morons like me who watched those shows for news were actually the smarterest people of the bunch, including those who watched regular news shows.  Huh, imagine that.  I can’t wait to see what Colbert makes of that story…

Later folks.
