Wife Beater Wednesday
This week's theme: photos of some guys named Sebastian Young and Taz Danijo. (I never heard of them either, but they're here for how they look in their shirts, not who they are)

They're throwing reporters in jail; swarthy gents are disappearing without a trace, oil tycoons are dictating our energy policy in closed door meetings with Dick Cheney; Congress deals with ethic complaints against its members by relaxing or eliminatin its ethical standards; laws are passed to allow the FBI to listen in on our conversations and read our mail whenever its in the mood; the adminstration gets a staggeringly expensive prescription plan by lying about what it will cost; three decades of enviornmental law is trashed; the federal deficit is enormous, but if we as individuals miss a credit card payment, our interest rate goes to 30 percent; money politics in the form of lobbying and campaign cash on Capitol Hill smashes all previous records; our economic policies allow CEO's to get millions of dollars in exchange for sending our jobs overseas; it turns out the 'mission' won't be accomplished for another 12 years - and you're worried about a lil ole thing like the government taking your house???
