Russia: Missile defense needs military reaction (story)
‘Missile defense’ isn’t that like a Cold War issue. I didn’t even know they actually got the system working. Do you really see Russia taking military action over this, then again, doesn’t the U.S. have more pressing military matters to attend to than missiles.
Missile defense deal signed (story)
Ok, the picture with this article is actually rather funny … check it out 
‘You’re the fattest ballerina’ (story)
And here I was thinking, the international edition, this one must at least have some more worldly headlines running … third headlines proves me wrong already. Oh, it’s an “Oprah.com” feature… explains a lot.
Did ‘Borat’ inspire striptease? (story)
Not getting any better here. “Cage fighting fans watch men ripping each others’ clothes off and kissing.” At least they got some entertainment. Nevertheless, what a waste of CNN front page space.
First lady and rock star (story)
Bruni is quite an interesting public figure, I must admit. “She even won over the hardest sell of all — the French”, according to this very detailed profile (1000 words!) of Sarkozy’s wive. At least it was a better read than two previous combined, though that ain’t saying much.
Iran warns U.S., Israel against attack (story)
Now I get it, it’s a defense shield against Iranian weapons. So by my definition the U.S. still thinks Iran is gonna fight Cold War style and a might missile defense shield is gonna do the trick.
G8 leaders warn Iran and Zimbabwe (story)
Rofl, more warnings. So we got Russia warning the U.S. and the Czech Republic, Iran warning Israel and the U.S. and Russia and the U.S. warning Iran and Zimbabwe. It’s international warning day, and this at the start of the summer. I hope they done warning by the time the Olympics start.
U.S. exports bras, bull semen to Iran (story)
I’m gonna skip commenting this one. In light of the previous posts, I guess it’s good to know the U.S. always has the bull semen to bring to the negotiation table.
White House apologizes for Berlusconi insult (story)
The White house apologized, not because they did something against the law like oh say wiretapping, but because they spoke the truth! They really got it all backwards. But hey got to keep up the hypocrisy.
F1 chief orgy women reject Nazi claim (story)
So the F1 chief admits he went about with 3 women, he admits to the nature of the ‘act’, the women are even identified and give interviews to the press… yet the sensation value ain’t high enough yet. It just needs that tiny bit more to it to get the readers reaaaaally interested.
Goo, ray guns aim to protect (story)
This story is depressing. Crowd control weapons for the presidential conventions. Why do gun fans always take it that extra step further? I mean come on, it not like the people there are gonna have any criminal intentions. Yeah, they gonna be loud, they gonna be in masses, they gonna be in your face. But gimme a break. You just know that if you put these ‘toys’ in the hands of 20-year-olds they just gonna wanna use it, and any remote opportunity is good to get out the goo gun or the pepper spray bullets. I’m just gonna stop here… these stories make me mad
