-America's Nation Parks: The new racist hotspots, according to ABC



Newsflash! The President is black, and won pretty handily. And political correctness aside, has anyone stopped to consider that black people may be *gasp* different than white people? Maybe black people don't want to visit a national park. Maybe white people generally like uppity activities like that. It's okay to speak in generalities when they are on point.

-Cash for Clunkers: The debacle continues. Even Rep. Joe Sestak isn't happy.


Even liberal socialized healthcare pusher Rep. Joe Sestak realizes Cash for Clunkers is a stupid bureaucratic nightmare, and that is exactly what it has become.

The federal government has only reimbursed auto dealers for 2 percent of the claims they've submitted through the popular "cash for clunkers" program, a Pennsylvania congressman said, calling on the Obama administration to help speed up the process.

Rep. Joe Sestak, D-Pa., called for "immediate action" to address the problem in a statement Sunday, after writing a letter to President Obama Saturday expressing his concerns.

In the letter, Sestak said only 2 percent of claims have been paid and that four of every five applications have been "rejected for minor oversight."

In recent days, auto dealers across the country have been complaining that the reimbursement payments are slow to process. And they said some of their applications were being rejected because of apparent procedural issues. The statistics Sestak cited suggest those complaints are not based on isolated incidents.

Wait wait wait... did I read that correctly? 2% of the claims have been paid out? Hurray for government efficiency! Let them handle healthcare! Aw hell let them give all of us auto insurance and houses too! After all, it isn't fair that only the rich get those fancy things. We are a much evolved and enlightened society and EVERYONE should have them right? Wait for it friends.

-Pay a tree for its sacrifice of absorbing your nasty carbon footprint

Just one of those stories... oh how far we have fallen.

Designer Nitipak Samsen has designed the Automated Tree-Rental for Emission Encaging Machine (ATREEM), which essentially allows you to purchase carbon credits from a tree. The gadget measures the growth of a tree, translating into how much carbon dioxide the tree has absorbed. The gadget is designed to highlight just how long it takes for our carbon dioxide emissions to be reabsorbed.

The device is more about awareness than being a practical method for charging people for their carbon dioxide emissions. However, the gadget is capable of charging credit cards using its swipe-card interface.
