Jewish World Review June 29, 2011 / 27 Sivan, 5771 And now for the important news .... By Argus Hamilton
http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | Boston mobster Whitey Bulger told his judge he'd like to hire an attorney if the U.S. will let him have the eight hundred grand in cash the FBI took from his apartment. Already he's more popular than nine out of ten public servants. He doesn't want to be a burden on the taxpayers.
Mexico's soccer team beat the U.S. team in the Rose Bowl Sunday. The fans all booed the U.S. and cheered Mexico. Back when experts said soccer would someday be the most popular sport in America nobody thought it'd be because a majority of people in America were not Americans.
President Obama met with GOP leaders Monday to try to agree on budget cuts and avert a debt crisis. They must end this recession. For Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt this economy is worse than a divorce, because he's not only lost all his money, he still has his wife.
The National Institute of Health released a study Friday showing that one adult American in five is mentally ill. Treatment is costly. The reason people prefer online shopping and UPS delivery is because stomping on plastic bubble wrap is cheaper than anti-depressant drugs.
New Mexico had brushfires Sunday forcing closure of the Los Alamos National Laboratory where nuclear bombs are tested. Nothing good would come from an atomic lab going up in flames. It could create a lot of jobs making forty-nine-star U.S. flags, but all those jobs are in China.
The Supreme Court ruled it's unconstitutional to ban the sale of violent video games to children. They allow kids to role-play in violent and sexual settings. In middle schools the teachers have to sleep with students just to compete with Grand Theft Auto for their attention.
