– Newt Gingrich, who hopes to be the GOP nominee, and is also crazy. (via wilwheaton)
This is actually the most purely Presidential thing Newt Gingrich has said. He really comes off as an American President saying something like that. A regular Andrew Jackson or Barack Obama. Who the fuck cares about...

The friend of my enemy is my enemy, right? →
Everyone made a big stink over GoDaddy supporting (and helping write?) the hideous SOPA. At the very least, though, GoDaddy has a hand in the internet and we shouldn’t be all that surprised that a shitty organization that tends to make shitty (by way of disgustingly sexist) commercials (among other sins) wanted to pull some shady shit in exchange for extra cash and influence on the frontier...
