Because Stupid Never Sleeps, Or, You Know, Thinks

So Campbell's introduced a line of halal-certified soups at the start of the year. Very American, right? See a market, move into it.

Oh hellz no! This is Terrorrrrrismmmmmmm! Boycotts are being called for by the usual gormless suspects. In the comments, several people suggest buying some soup and donating it to food banks, which strikes me as an excellent idea.

More proof for the lack of a diety: the genes for right-wing douchebaggery aren't a lethal recessive.

It's the old Kosher Tax canard, rebranded for the 21st Century.

This boggles the mind: "Are their U.S. products secretly halal?"

It's too bad that stupid isn't a terminal disease... oh, wait, it is. Just not all the time.
