Axis of sheeple

While "hundreds of thousands" have reportedly taken to the streets in Iran — risking violent retribution and death — to express their anger over what may well be a rigged election, "tens of thousands" have (with government permission, of course) taken to the streets "to condemn the UN rebuke of [North Korea's] latest nuclear test."

    I think the record will show that, as a general rule, nobody should believe anything in my photo captions.
