They are just figuring this out now?
Officials: Water in Mass. Possibly Tainted
These are the same people that have elected Ted Kennedy every 6 years since the mid 60's and Jon Kerry since the mid 80's. Of course the water is tainted.

Loving the Old Commie Bastard
Our friend with the stained head, Mikhail Gorbachev, is getting a lot of love in the media this week since he is turning 75. Hilariously, the same media who love him would have been out of business real quick had they tried to report anything when good 'ol Gorby was in charge of the Soviet Union. Let's have a look:
MSNBC - MOSCOW — Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev is perhaps the prime example of a prophet who is not revered in his own country. Even 15 years after he lost political power, he is still the man most Russians love to hate.
Yet Gorbachev, who is arguably the man most responsible for ending the Cold War...
Gee, maybe they hate his guts because they lived under his tyranny. And, I'll get to the "ending the Cold War" in a second.
Gorbachev, Almost 75, Sounds Off on U.S. ABC - MOSCOW Mar 1, 2006 (AP)— Mikhail Gorbachev's magnetic brown eyes shine as brightly as ever, and he speaks with the same passion about the collapse of the Soviet Union as he prepares to mark his 75th birthday on Thursday.
The man who ended the Cold War and launched democratic reforms that broke the repressive Soviet regime continues to enjoy the limelight, globe-trotting on behalf of his political foundation and environmental group and taking part in charity projects.
With that headline, the body of the story should have said "Who gives a damn what he has to say?"
Anyway, it is beyond pathetic how the media now gives him credit for ending the Cold War. He ended it by being the man in charge when the events Ronald Reagan (the real man responsible for ending the Cold War) put into place came crashing to a head.
Using their logic, allow me to save reporters some work for their future columns and write some similar sentences for them:
- "Japan, who ended World War II by being nuked,..."
- "Mike Tyson, who ended the fight by being knocked out by Lennox Lewis,..."
- "Alexander Hamilton, who resolved his dispute with Aaron Burr by being shot and killed,..."
- "Abraham Lincoln, who caused that night's performance of "Our American Cousin" to end early,..."
F Gorbachev.
