Well, at least it's not wars and rumors of war this week. Instead we have the Republicans approving Boehner's lawsuit against Obama, threat of bodily harm by the Ebola virus, and Russian hackers stealing more than a billion usernames and passwords. Also there's a comment on whether junk food is cheaper than healthy food.
Just the day before beginning summer recess, Republicans voted to sue Obama. I think the following cartoon adequately describes the U.S. Congress' actions since Obama entered office.
A majority of Americans disapprove of the GOP's lawsuit, according to the Huffington Post.
Meanwhile, Ebola spreads.
Promising experimental drugs and vaccines are being developed for reputedly incurable Ebola, but there are obstacles, some man-made.
It would be easy to say that the theft of 1.2 billion user login credentials by Russian hackers is a response to current sanctions, but the records were amassed earlier. It's possible that release of the information about the hack was timed for maximum affect.
Finally, Is Junk Food Really Cheaper?
