I loved Ray Manzarek's organ music so much that I even tolerated the guy braying crap like "Our love become a funeral pyre" on his records.

Once again Barack Hussein Obama shocks the conscience of the nation by doing something all the white presidents have done.

Tumblr is not going to be as much fun if everyone has to come into the Yahoo! office to do it.

I wish we had the kind of humane health care system where a man could quietly ask for the mental treatments he desperately needs instead of having to go on the air and announce that he wants to shoot Hillary Clinton in the vagina.

In Cuba, a member of the royal family is leading the defense of sexual minorities, and Uncle Fidel has apologized for the bad old days. Good for them!

Thanx to Feministing

An Australian politician has apologized for liking an illicit picture of a teenage boy on Facebook. In the picture, the boy was partaking in the time-honored Australian tradition of "sneaky nuts," whereby he was furtively exposing his genitals.

That ornament* to the Senate House of Representatives Louie Gohmert performed the difficult feat of making Attorney General Holder look good. I am happy to join in on the Gohmert pile-on.

*The German word for "ornament" is schmuck.

Happy birthday, akirlu. I don't know if it's anybody else's birthday because lj is malfunctioning, presumably as a result of unprotected contact with Facebook.

I posted this to dw because lj will accept crossposts but not direct posts.

When the liberal says "race is a social construct," he is not being a soft-headed dolt; he is speaking an historical truth. We do not go around testing the "Irish race" for intelligence or the "Southern race" for "hot-headedness." These reasons are social. It is no more legitimate to ask "Is the black race dumber than then white race?" than it is to ask "Is the Jewish race thriftier than the Arab race?"

21st century Peeping Tom tech. As Fritz Perls said, "A criminal is someone who arrogates to himself the privileges of the government."

Thanx to Pandagon.

California is worried that people with criminal records will do drug counseling. That leaves the ones who didn't get caught and the ones who don't know what they're talking about.

…and a moment of silence for convicted felon Chuck Muncie, who reportedly was an excellent drug counselor and who knew what he was talking about.

A British writer, attempting to correct a misstatement in her own Wikipedia entry, ran afoul of a sinister entity known as Orange Mike (alias orangemike), and reported it in the British press. He was of course simply enforcing a reasonable rule, and the answer to her dilemma is to ask someone else to do the correction. Supergee also does Wikipedia editing, but pretty much sticks to grammatical/style nitpicks. Reported in File 770.

One interesting thing about the voters who think Benghazi is the biggest political scandal in American history is that 39% of them don't actually know where it is. 10% think it's in Egypt, 9% in Iran, 6% in Cuba, 5% in Syria, 4% in Iraq, and 1% each in North Korea and Liberia with 4% not willing to venture a guess--Public Policy Polling

Victims of the state's punitive pain-drug policies unite.

Thanx to Radley Balko on Facebook
