UPDATED: The Philly.com screenshot that tells you everything you need to know about America in 2012

POSTED: Sunday, May 6, 2012, 11:17 PM

I saw this juxtaposition on Philly.com Friday and tried to describe it on Twitter -- huge hat tip to Philly.com producer Matt Mullin for actually grabbing it. I guess it's just the power of the free market at work. Maybe Lynn Elsenhans could do the "thousand points of light" thing and donate a couple of those millions to feed those hungry kids.

Not holding my breath.

UPDATE: I guess it's the screenshot that tells you everything you need to know about what a technodunce I am -- the so-called "twitpic" from Twitter was actually OK on my work computer last night but I guess it's like the bell in "The Polar Express" -- it's only visible for those who truly believe. Oh well, talk about those crazy French people.

Oh my, I hit a nerve simply noting Hollywood donates to hunger charities. Some strawmen are too precious, aren't they?

The Kochs donate tons to charity. Doesn't really stop the president or others from whining about fair share.

From the "All the news thats fit to ignore" file, have you seen the story the Lamestream, Obama lapdog media has been ignorning regarding the plot to blow up the bridge in Ohio. Oh, those wacky Occupy people:

@tanks- Your 9:13 post will be tough to beat for shear idiocy. That is truly saying something even for you.

So why is there a purpose for news at all any longer? Let's see, we shouldn't 'encourage' copycat behavior for, arson, murder, pedophilia, drug use, bank robbery, terrorism or anything else that qualifes as news any more, huh?

You didn't really believe what you wrote in that post, did you?

@tanks- Uh, that quote wasn't in your 9:13 post. Are you awake yet?

Three additional murders and three hospitalized this weekend with gun shot wounds which taxpayers will pay to heal.

Killy.com's single blurb plays "non-identity" politics by again failing to note race/ ethnicity and again not posting a comments section. Social activists (including racist black liberation revs who hawk their own brand bigotry from their pulpits), along with the mayor and commish set the stage for how killy news is reported and what articles are protected from comments.

Will, recall our mayor using the numbers game when referencing prior to his reelection that 2011 murders didn't exceed the 426 in 2007, before he became head honcho? How's that smug rationalization holding up in 2012?

There's so much you could blog, but you chose to ignore the genocide and the fratricide occurring daily on Killy streets and instead print gabage in, garbage out!

Garbage feeds fly's. Don't compare his vomit articles to garbage. He is not even close to garbage standards.
