Cheney makes surprise visit to Iraq

US Vice President Dick Cheney swept into Baghdad on an unannounced visit Monday, looking to highlight security gains and promote elusive political progress days before the war enters its sixth year, but afraid to the very core of his manhood that his botched job in Iraq, while profitable, was a steaming pile of shit and not the “mission accomplished” his puppet boss claimed.

Minutes after he arrived, he was greeted as a liberator when an explosion rocked central Baghdad, following a roadside bombing that killed a policeman, underscoring the violence that still grips the nation almost five years after the US-led invasion of Iraq.

The unheralded visit, shrouded in secrecy and blanketed with security because everyone hates Dick, and us…

Karma.

UK: Heavy Sentence for Disrespecting Traffic Camera

Courts impose heavy sentences on motorcyclists accused of showing disrespect toward a speed camera.

Two UK motorcyclists received heavy court sentences for showing disrespect toward a speed camera. Alexander Bell, 21, used his feet to cover up the license plate of his 125cc Gilera Runner scooter in Southhampton…  “An example must be made so others don’t get the bright idea of covering their number plates in this way,” … Bell was charged with perverting the course of justice and speeding… a one-month jail sentence, six license demerit points and a six-month driving ban on the youth.
Patrick Sheehan-Dinler, 29, was accused of giving a speed camera the finger on sixty-six occasions… over the course of two years. To conceal his identity, the man used six different motorcycles registered under different names with different sets of clothing to confuse police. But the police searched for the clothing on eBay and tracked Sheehan-Dinler down through purchasing records obtained from the online auction website [:] 200 hours of community service, a six-month suspended jail sentence and a £300 (US $600) fine.
