Ann Coulter was Right

May 3rd, 2007 · Written by Jason Glover · No Comments

I am a brainwashed, bleeding-heart liberal. Everything I say is naïve at best and corrosive at worst. I have made detrimental deductions about the state of affairs on this blue-green orb based on lies the liberal media and my college professors told me.

An exposé on the doublethink and hypocrisy perpetrated by the type of animal rights extremism touted by PETA.

Frat House Planet Earth

March 3rd, 2007 · Written by Jason Glover · No Comments

Imagine regaining consciousness after some no-holds-barred, drink-yourself-into-a-coma, fall-asleep-in-your-own-fluids kind of party. It was fun while it lasted, but now your head aches as you surveil the dilapidated remains of last night’s hoopla. Sunday-afternoon doldrums dissolve any remembrance of dopamine-driven delight.
