#2 I read over at Hot Air that The Pope of Hope is also mulling giving the ICC jurisdiction over US Citizens. For someone who claims to have lectured in Constitutional Law he is dumber than a bucket of hair.

#4 This the only article I see about this on a Google search. Not saying it's wrong, but nobody else has chosen to run with it.

#5 Why would the US get involved with this? It's hardly our area of influence. More the business of Australia and India.

Oh, wait - I forgot. Bambi the total incompetent clueless loser is "in charge" now. >:-(

#7 48 hour rule for this : the LTTE is explicitly named as a "known terrorist organization" and the US has been quietly siding with the Lankans during the latest offensive. Also, this is a known media supporter of the Tamils in Sri Lanka so this is less likely than a Pravda article.

#8 Gee, maybe the US should go an arrange for evacuation of the civilians of Tibet. A few minor logistical problems with that, but nothing that The One can't handle.

Question: If a Sri Lankan mother gives birth to a baby on a US warship, is the kid eligible for US citizenship? As in: eligible to become friggin' President some day>?
