Killed her boyfriend 3 different ways
Shot a black teenager armed only with skittles and iced tea
Sent ricin laced letters to government officials
Targeted Teabag groups for extra scrutiny
Wiped out a whole town in OK with 200 mile an hour winds
Won American Idol or Dancing with the so called stars
But I'll tell you what it has done. Bought a shit load of ad time on all the networks telling us how nice and clean and environmentally friendly they are.
So this whole oil spill thing is kinda hurting their whole squeaky clean image they are trying to fabricate. Do you think the networks are gonna shit where they eat? I think not.
