Gulf of Mexico oil slick: Sarah Palin fuels anti-British sentiment – Telegraph. Apparently we’re still fighting off the Brits. Or something. Maybe we’re trying to get the crown out of Canada (for their own sake)? Beats me. Also, this sort of rabble-rabble seems to be early promotional material for her 2012 run at the GOP [...]

Liberating Legislation?
House Clears Path for Final Health Vote “It’s liberating legislation,” Ms. Pelosi said. “It’s to free Americans to live their passion, reach their aspirations without being job-locked because they have to have health care, especially if they have someone in their family with a pre-existing condition.” It’ll liberate money from my pocket, if nothing else.

College tuition in GA set to rise again
BWAHAHAHAHA… I go to a public university in GA. The comments on the Augusta Chronicle’s page are, as always, worth the read. One of the commentrs sounds suspiciously like one of my professors from last semester (and the fact that he hints at the fact that he has his doctorate). Chapters 6 & 7 of [...]

In which I ponder the meaning of conservativism, reject rationalism and wander into the desert in search of something more fun.
Dear Conservative Movement: Stop Ruining My Life, by Michael Brendan Dougherty You go so far as to encourage people to fabricate their entire identity from the Republican platform. Look at S.E. Cupp. She used to be a person! Now, under your influence, she is one of the lamer Rush Limbaugh monologues from the Clinton era. [...]
