Supreme Court Crumbling

Many of my left-leaning friends think the Supreme Court is falling apart.
It seems, in a literal sense, they're right. Today the very edifice of our nation's judiciary began to fall.

Up and Down Week for Brown University

First, my alma mater gets embarassed when an undercover film crew from "The O'Reilly Factor" shot footage of the off-the-charts debauchery that happens each year at the "SexPowerGod" Queer Alliance party. The party happens every fall at Brown and if you remember what happened you drank conservatively. If you had on more than Saran Wrap you dressed conservatively. This year, with the film crew on hand, a record 20+ students had to be carted away for medical attention. Yeesh. Highlights from the report:

[Producer Jesse Waters] heard students having sex in the bathroom stall next to him and saw others having sex behind the DJ booth..."It was the wildest party I'd ever been to," he added. "Girls were falling down drunk all over the place." ...

O'Reilly began the segment on the "prestigious" and "highly regarded Ivy League school" by saying the footage of the event was "not for kids... [one] shot showed a student, clad only in a red drinking cup, entering an EMS truck.

NICE. It's shady to film drunk kids without their knowledge but... c'mon, people. We did most of the embarassing ourselves...

In happier news, I'd like to congratulate the IVY LEAGUE CHAMPION Brown U. Football Team!!!

Yes, our season-capping win over lowly Columbia makes us outright Ivy Champs for the first time ever. Even more impressive is running back Nick Hartigan, who ran for for 229 yards and three touchdowns on Saturday, setting new Ivy League records for career touchdowns (54) and points (324)...all after flying into NYC the previous night from a Rhodes Scholarship interview in Pittsburgh.

Hartigan definitely represents the best of our school. Suffice to say he wasn't the kid boarding the ambulance in a red drinking cup.

Presidential Laughs

Michael Crowley enjoys an anecdote from Christopher Meyer's new Tony Blair book about the day the British PM first met America's new President:

That night, the Blairs watched the film "Meet the Parents" with the Bushes. Meyer wrote that Bush "split his sides" laughing when he heard that the character played by actor Ben Stiller was named "Gay Focker."


Crowley wonders how different the President actually is from the parodies played by Will Ferrel, and offers a great link.

If you either like Will Ferrel or dislike the President, this is a must-see.

Panther Cheerleaders Show Affection, then Claws

What do you get when you cross the ultimate Bud-Lite commercial frat boy fantasy (think lipstick lesbian catfight) with Jerry Springer style white trash dysfunctionality?

Well, I guess you get this.
Not sure what more to say.

Except that using the name of another girl on the cheerleading squad when you get busted by the cops is soooo high school.

**UPDATE**
The girls have been kicked off the cheerleading squad.
Their pictures and bios, now erased from the team site, can be seen here.
