Bidet Announces new Bush Fabnatasy Park in UAE

Here is the beginning of my post. And here is the rest of it.

In the meantime: from Sam Stein at Huffington

In honor of Martin Luther King Day, filmmaker Robert Greenwald has released a sharp new short film on his topic-de-jour: the excesses of the private equity industry. The video, which is part of a series titled "War On Greed," documents the strain endured by small town economies under the weight of the private equity industry's business structure.

For his new work, Greenwald and his company BraveNewFilms hone in on the town of Rockford, Illinois, whose Gunite plant was part of a company that was bought out, gutted, and sold for a $79.8 million profit by Henry Kravis, head of the buyout firm KKR.
