In Other News: Can We Ask Al Qaeda for a Refund on the Bowe Bergdahl Prisoner Swap?

Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:

Shi’ite militias in Iraq have suspended their offensive against the Islamic State in protest over America’s air support. Clearly we’re not sending the Iranian supported ground forces enough Hallmark cards and fruit baskets.

(Boston Globe)

A Democrat Congresswoman is claiming that global warming will turn most women into prostitutes… Personally, I find it hard to believe that anything could force that many women into politics.

(Breitbart)

Legal experts say it is quite possible that Bowe Bergdahl could end up with no prison time, and continued VA benefits. Is it too late to ask Al Qaeda for a refund?

(NY Post)

Syria’s Bashar Al Assad has said that he is open to negotiating with America. I guess he saw what was going on with Iran, and decided that he too would like nuclear weapons.

(Fox News)

Senate Democrats are proposing a “temporary surtax” to help fund the fight against ISIS. For being a JV Team, those pesky terrorists that took over when we left Iraq sure are getting expensive to fight.

(PJ Media)

Attendees to the National Union of Students have been asked to swap clapping with “jazz hands” at a recent event. The request was made after some attendees found clapping to be “intimidating”, and they want to create a more inclusive atmosphere. I never realized clapping was so offensive to liberals… I’ll be doing it a lot more from now on.

(BBC)

Ithaca College has opened an online forum for people to anonymously report “micro aggressions” from “privileged” groups… In other words: The enforcement of Newspeak and censorship is double good.

I visited Las Vegas last week, and now Harry Reid is announcing that he will retire from the Senate… Coincidence?
