"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Leftists: Guardians of the Environment

Dave Matthews Band's Big Stink

E! Online -- The state of Illinois has filed a lawsuit against the Dave Matthews Band for allegedly dumping up to 800 pounds of liquid human waste from its tour bus into the Chicago River earlier this month.
Doh! That's a lotta shit.
And that was bad news for Chicago's First Lady, a passing tour boat filled with 100 people on an architecture sightseeing cruise that was doused by the falling excrement.

Doh! That's some funny shit.
The Dave Matthews Band will presumably keep their waste under control as they continue on their current tour, which is now on the road on the West Coast for the next month before linking up with the Vote for Change tour. The politically motivated trek, featuring the likes of Bruce Springsteen, the Dixie Chicks, Pearl Jam and John Mellencamp, will play 34 shows in 28 cities in swing states in an effort to unseat President Bush.
Well, now it's all pretty clear what happened. With as much shit as the bunch they're hooking up with is full of, they clearly needed to make room, posthaste!
