"The Road Less Travelled" by Harry Turtledove.

A spaceship lands on the White House lawn. Our scientists are positive that it's not from our solar System; it must have a Faster Than Light drive of some sort.

The military is ready to face them, but the generals have little hope, because if they have FTL, the rest of their weapons must be equally advanced.

The aliens come out on horseback, shooting arrows and throwing spears.

Turns out, every other race in the Galaxy has FTL, and we're the schnooks who never figured it out.

Oh, sweet innocent child.

Back after 9/11/2001 the GOP pushed two ideas at once. First, that Bill Clinton had missed numerous opportunities to go after bin-Ladn, and that Bush Jr. had only been in office for nine months and couldn't have know what a threat bin-Ladn was.

1940 animated version using rotoscopes. One of my favorite versions of the Man Of Steel.

So, Supes is an illegal and he had a kid with another guy?

Also, the kid is dating Miss Martian, who is also an illegal alien and a shapeshifter who can become a boy if she wants to...

Get me my Bat-Shark Repellent!

Poor Supes has been retconned since he first appeared. For a while he could shapeshift and turn invisible.

I like how he calls out the people who will do nothing because 'cops and Nazis are the same thing.'

How many of these idiots have child support warrants out on them? Any hostile interaction between cops and Nazis is a win.

Check with the local parks department. There are nature hikes that teach people about the local biology.

You shouldn't pick a news source based on the fact that it agrees with you.

You should pick it because it actually gives you information.

Thanks for the suggestion.

One of the most annoying books I ever read. Every page made me feel stupider and more uneducated.

When do you think tax cuts for the rich are going to start 'trickling down' to the rest of us?

When Reagan came into office, 'middle class' was still one Union job supporting a family fo four. In those days, $1 million was a vast fortune. By the time Bush Sr. let office, 'middle class' was enshrined as two jobs to run the house, and $1 million was what a rich guy paid for a party.
