Al Qaeda to become a Social Media group

I stumbled across this article about 10 minutes ago. To sum it up for you guys, it's saying that the U.S congress (with the threat of the Fiscal cliff) is doing a better job destroying our economy than they ever could.

Now, for those of you who don't now. both political parties must consent to have new bills passed. The Democrats control the senate and the Republicans control the house. Obviously they aren't going to see eye to eye. I mean come on, if a republican is willing to filibuster his own bill... (Sorry Mitch)

Though we can only speculate as to what the true reasoning behind the disbanding of Al Qaeda was, I find this to be the most funny option. Discuss!

I thought so too, but Al Qaeda apparently did disband. We just don't know why for sure, or if it was for good.

In other news though, check out "Zero Dark Thirty". They gave it 2 thumbs up!

That is why the best revenge is living longer than your enemy.

Lol, yeah I got a laugh out of this. I have to read up more on the Fiscal Cliff Jargon though.

You know something is messed up in your country when a group that has professed itself as your mortal enemy leaves their enemy alone to destroy itself.
