After the Tucson shootings of a Congresswoman and a federal judge, President Obama argues that there’s no place for violence in American society. Then we went off to discuss one of his wars.
Honor Our Future Martyrs
•
The Pentagon currently plans to withdraw from Afghanistan in 2014. But what about the future deaths that will happen in 2011, 2012 and 2013?
Invade Andorra
•
Andorra has negative unemployment. How do they do it? More importantly, how can the United States take advantage of it?
Can’t Win for Losing
•
The military gets a small payraise. Imagine how much they’d earn if they actually won a war?
Coming 2014
•
The U.S. announced victory in the war against Afghanistan at the end of 2001. Since then, the deadline has repeatedly been pushed back. Now Obama is moving back the end date from 2011 to 2014.
Thirty to One
•
General Petraeus has promised to rethink his predecessor’s recent policy of trying to reduce Afghan casualties.
Mix Up
•
Who can blame the gravekeepers at Arlington? All the victims of our leaders’ lies look the same.

•
Blumenthal lied, claiming that he’d served in Vietnam. In a saner America, veterans would try to cover up their service.
Don’t Ask, Don’t Care
•
It seems appropriate this Memorial Day to think about all the gays and lesbians who died for their country, which insisted that they lie about who they were.
