Another financial services executive dies mysteriously. This time it’s 39-year-old Nicholas Valtz of Goldman Sachs, found floating off the coast of Long Island still attached to his kiteboard. These guys are dropping like flies – this is the 15th weird death in recent months.

University of Wisconsin mulling “diversity-based grading.” To hell with scholarship and the acquisition of knowledge, we can’t let Asian kids monopolize all the As in the math courses, right? Silver lining: if the university is consistent, we expect to see a 5’3″ Cambodian on the basketball team this winter.

King Obama proclaims all U.S. territories exempt from Obamacare rules. Never mind what the actual law says. He don’t need no stinkin’ laws tellin’ his ass what to do.

Egyptian cleric denounces Muslim Brotherhood’s “anal jihad.” Because it is punishable by death according to sharia law, allowing homosexual activity among frontline troops is “asinine.” Seriously, that’s what he said.

Second carbon tax domino falls. The day after Australia abolished its carbon tax, South Korea announced that it is delaying its own “emissions trading market” because it is “flawed in many ways.” This is like a fairy tale with Global Warming being the emperor and Australia the little boy who says, “But he isn’t wearing anything at all!”

The “ideal head.” Bizarre examples of racial ignorance from a 1906 elementary school geography book – Frye’s First Steps in Geography – illustrate why we do not want professional educators in charge of what our children are taught.

Wikipedia war over crash of Malaysian flight MH17. Every time someone writes that the Russian government provided “terrorists” with the missile that shot down the plane, the Russian government changes the entry to say, “The plane was shot down by Ukrainian soldiers.”

Mosque leader arrested for trying to cut off man’s hand… in Philadelphia. Coming soon to a city near you.

NYTimes blames Bush for Biden’s illegal alien loopholes. It was Senator Biden who concocted the 2008 loophole that now prevents illegal alien children from non-contiguous countries from being immediately deported. Then in 2013 Congress added another loophole, championed by Vice President Biden, preventing women from being deported.

Repel the invasion. American citizens are riled up about illegal aliens, to say the least. One of our regular IHTM commenters emailed a list of protests taking place over the next two days, broken down by state. If you have some spare time and feel like having your voice heard…

Planned Parenthood sex ed tells young girls to poop on boyfriends. “There are so many different fetishes out there,” said the Planned Parenthood counselor to what she thought was a 15-year-old girl. “Like, some guys like for women to urinate on them, or, like, uh, what is it? Dec… uh, pooping basically! …for some people that’s completely normal and it can be really fun.”

San Francisco set to approve blood donations from gay men. Political correctness elevated to a level where it endangers public safety. God forbid we should hurt anyone’s feelings by saying, “Your lifestyle is too dangerous to the public safety for us to want your blood.” Arthur Ashe is spinning in his grave.

French transport engineers do it again. Remember when they bought a fleet of trains too wide for the train stations? Now Paris train stations have a bunch of escalators with steps to wide for the machinery. The term “French engineer” is becoming an oxymoron.

The woman who expected Obama to put gas in her car and pay her mortgage. Six years later, older and wiser now, she compares Barack Obama to the “little teeny teeny tiny man” behind the curtain in The Wizard of Oz.

UN burning indigenous people’s homes in Kenya to stop Global Warming. Just when you think the mass hysteria and insanity of the climate scam can’t get any worse…

Bowe Bergdahl in line for tax-free $350,000 lump sum. Unless the Army decides he was a deserter. Trouble is, either Bergdahl is declared a hero or Obama looks like an idiot so guess which way the Army investigation will go.

SEIU membership in Michigan drops 80% after home care givers allowed a choice. Proving once again: if given an informed choice, nobody in their right mind would join a union.

Taliban fighters offer advice to ISIS: “Avoid extremism,” say the Islamic thugs who turned Afghanistan into Muslim-extremist hell.

Hamas rocket takes out line that carries electricity into Gaza. Netanyahu tells electric company, “Don’t bother fixing it.”

Hamas finally hits something with its rockets. Other Palestinians.

Congratulations are in order for Charles Manson. He’s getting married. To the ditzy bimbo from Illinois pictured above. Her name is Afton Burton, she’s been corresponding with Manson since she was 17, and she thinks all the bad stuff people say about him is based on a “myth.”

Pentagon sending pink slips to soldiers in war zone. When God was handing out class, Obama thought He said “grass” and smoked it.

Co-author of How To Survive The Bulls Of Pamplona gored by bull in Pamplona. The bulls have their own how-to book – How To Gore The Shit Out Of Stupid White Men In The Streets Of Pamplona – and they read it religiously.

Hamas firing long-range rockets at Tel Avis and Jerusalem. Official government sources estimate half the country’s population is hunkered down in bomb shelters. Israel is calling up 40,000 reserve soldiers for the Army. The response from the Obama administration: White House Mideast chief Phillip Gordon gave a speech in Tel Aviv blasting Israel for “denying Palestinian sovereignty, security, and dignity.”

Dictator Harry Reid. Never has a majority leader personally accounted for such a large percentage of allowed amendments and never has the Senate accomplished so little year after year. By succumbing to his control freak neuroses, Reid has effectively destroyed the Senate, causing it to become completely dysfunctional.
