    While other media outlets bring you news as it happens, only the Onion News Network has the power to bring you the news before it happens. In the year 2137 a catastrophe has reduced the world to a lawless wasteland - food and water are scarce, social institutions have crumbled, and a screaming, tattooed thug has been installed as the president of what remains of the United States.

What can you believe coming from pathological liars with a agenda? Not a Damn thing, that's what. I assume nothing that I haven't seen, touched, or sensed or that didn't come from someone first hand that I trust. They're so full of shit its sick. And people still buy into this binary "Left/Right" paradigm nonsense and continue to consent by participating. I'll be writing in a "No confidence" vote for any "elections" that go beyond Sheriff. I don't expect many people to be able to understand what I'm talking about as most have proven to be so mentally entrenched in this Beast system that I don't even usually bother trying to peel their eyelids back to reboot their brains.
