The "International Criminal Court" is a figment of the imagination. Any sane person couldn't give a F*@% about what these unaccountable morons have to say.

As for the Obama lawsuit, this story was SO two days ago. MISSING from the story is that this guy has been arrested for defacing private property on numerous occasions -- and failed to show up for court. Just like a good liberal.

The guy is a street artist. "Defacing" property is what they do. And I love it, and love his work.

Please someone tell me where #8 lives so that I can put some "art" on his home....

...assuming he doesn't live in section 8 housing, because then I'd be defacing property I own.

I think NBC should start a new show where they confront corporate executives as they spend large sums of money and make important decisions on behalf of the investors. At the point of confrontation they could start to ask them really tough questions about how their actions are ruining the value of teh company and they broadcast the answers on prime time television. The reporters could also follow the spouce and children of the executives to see how they live and what they spend money on. This information would give good questions then to ask the executive. Think about it, with the economic crisis being blamed on greed amongst the upper class this show could really catch on with the masses.

It's funny how Dershowitz is constantly flapping his gums about this or that "injustice," but never speaks about the accusation that he killed his first wife:
