Bill Maher Picks a Fight Out of His Weight Class

“And the trump card, why Americans will fall in love with her, she’s got five kids. How can you not vote for someone who has five children, including an infant. Some touching details about the infant: it has Down Syndrome, she had it when she was 43 years old, and it looks a lot like John Edwards.” –Bill Maher

Yeh, it’s true. I watched it, and Bill Maher does use Trig Palin to mock his mother… and make a slimy joke about how he “looks a lot like John Edwards.”

What? “[L]ooks a lot like John Edwards”? Implying what? Better be careful, Bill. Alaskans like the Palins (80% in a poll taken just last week) and a lot of Alaskans are better shots with their 30-30s than you are with your mouth… Just sayin’. Back in the good old days when men were men and things like Bill Maher were gopher food, comments like that wouldn’t stand.

[Aside: I once actually heard a judge in a Southwestern court say in jury instructions concerning a cattle rustling case–yes, a cattle rustling case, not 20 years ago–that “I’ve never known a cow that deserved to be stolen, but I have known some men who deserved to be shot.” The rustler got the fullest punishment allowed under the law, and the case was never appealed.]

Trig Palin’s dirty diapers are full of stuff with more class than Bill Maher.

Travel Through Time in the Middle East

For a cool, not entirely inaccurate OK, OK, moderately accurate, within the constraints of the medium (just quibbles for the most part) 90-second overview of the past few thousand years’ history of the Middle East, check this flash animated map out.

While it won’t illuminate much for folks who don’t already have some grounding in the area’s history, it’s a pretty cool review for folks who do.

0.01%

That’s one-hundredth of one percent. For the innumerate among our increasingly illterate and innumerate society, that’s one part in ten thousand. A tiny, itsy-bitsy, teen-einsty speck, for those who can’t understand that.

That’s how much of ANWR is any part at all of what’s even being considered for drilling in.

And it’s an environmental zero of a mud flat. The equivalent of a couple of shopping malls… after prime real estate has already been turned into the wasteland that is a shopping mall.

Not even polar bears want to live there. *heh*

Drill, baby, drill.
