Despite the fact that his good relations with the Hispanic population probably got him elected (along with rigged voting machines), Bush just came out against the Spanish version of the Star Spangled Banner. I guess he was tired of vying for support from both Hispanics and Immigration Reductionists. He just fell on the side that [...]
Ok, so the Nintendo revolution will be called Wii. Um, yea. Am I the only person in the universe who likes the name? People, get your mind out of the gutter.
