Worst British Cultural Export Since Mister Bean

So, apparently, the British 'institution' that is Red Nose Day is being exported to the US, specifically in the form of a three-hour telethon on NBC.

Just why ?  What did the US do to deserve this ?  Is not the suffering of one nation enough ?

With luck, hopefully no-one will notice the damn thing and it will die a quiet death, remembered only dimly as a stupid one-off idea that made as much sense retrospectively as attempting to cast serial rapistcuddly dad-figure Bill Cosby as Victor Fucking Meldrew.

Obama Regrets Not Closing Guantanamo Prison 'On The First Day'

...

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama said Wednesday that if he could go back and do his presidency over again, he would have immediately shut down the U.S. detention center in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"I think I would have closed Guantanamo on the first day," Obama said to applause at an event in Cleveland, Ohio.

Obama went on to say that he didn't rush to close the military prison when he first took office because there was already bipartisan agreement that it should be closed. He noted that his GOP presidential opponent Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) had also called for shutting it down.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  That is all.
