Sotomayor shows she's no Clarence Thomas as Supreme Court opens
New Liberal Hispanic Satan took her seat on the Supreme Court Monday and thanks to some reinforcement of the court's foundations, the ground did not open up and swallow everyone whole. One interesting note: she apparently asked more question in on hour than Justice Clarence Thomas has asked...ever. And that's not an exaggeration. He hasn't spoken in court in years. Way to put that seat to good use Clarence. I don't see why anyone would want to use that seat to ask questions before deciding stuff. Rookie mistake, Sotomayor, rookie mistake.
Shroud Of Turin Reproduced; Italian Group Says Relic Is Man-Made, Fake
If there's one thing I've learned over the years is that religions in general tend to respond really positively when scientists come in with facts, figures, experiments, means testing, and evidence to back up their claims towards aspects of science and the natural world. So I'm sure they'll be extra happy now that science has used its powers to start chipping away at religious dogma and relics.
Burden of Proof on Obama's Origins
Hey, didn't you think it would be a great idea to read a story about the lead nut "investigating" the Obama birth certificate "controversy", Orly Taitz, that treated her as just a normal working mom trying to uncover all the vast insane conspiracies she believes in? No? Well fuck you, because the Washington Post did. Because what this country needs is for more newspapers to spend more time profiling everyone with a crackpot conspiracy about the President.
Obama quietly tries to shore up Senate support for public option
According to the LA Times, President Obama and the White House have been working for the last few weeks now to make sure that a public option is included in any final health care bill. Hey great, better to push for it at the end instead of twisting arms in the beginning, right? No? It would have been better to push hard for this months ago instead of spending all that time undercutting the public plan with statements about how a public plan isn't important? Ah well, at least this will allow them to offer up a meek "we tried" when there's no public option and thus no real mechanism for driving down costs.
No Exit: The never-ending lunacy of Betsy McCaughey.
Did you ever wonder where every crazy conspiracy, shoddy statistic, outright lie, and death panel type rumor in our health care debate came from? Chances are it came from long time health reform advocate Betsy McCaughey. I don't know what's more stunning: that so much bullshit can be generated by one person or that she's still taken somewhat seriously by our mainstream media betters.
