Mike's Blog Round Up

Gin and Tacos: How to lie with statistics; also, laziness.

skippy: the rats are leaving the ship.

Whiskey Fire: K-Lo – a nitwit, but so much more.

Dave's Daily Dump: Expand the Civil Rights Act to include LGBT rights – a video collection.

Balloon Juice: Try to keep up with the shifting wingnut talking points. (Maybe spicing things up with magic unicorns and ravenous zombies would help.)

Glenn Greenwald: Still banning the word "torture" in reporting on torture. (How will they cover the CIA IG report on torture, I wonder?)

Headline poetry from Poetic Justice and Mad Kane.

I love this story:

Oldsters use Improvised Bankster Takedown Device after 2 million Euros looted from their pensions.

Tinhorn gamblers trifling with folks' lives? This sounds about right to me...

not quite so poor, and their lost investment was not quite so honest.

Read HG Wells War of the Worlds.

Once the English start panicking he was suggesting chaos would break loose.

I'm sure it was shocking idea at the time.

To make an alteration in the evolvement of an organic life-system is fatal.
A coding sequence cannot be revised once it's been established.
Why Not?
Because by the 2nd day of incubation any cells that have undergone reversion mutations give rise to revertant colonies like rats leaving the sinking ship
then the ship
sinks.

Your link doesn't work, somehow you had a hyphen slash at the end when you needed only a slash.

Congress should set up assisted-suicide programs for the terminally ill and suffering, for the uninsured middle class who choose to die instead of pay their prices.

If they don’t, these greedy medical devils with their ridiculous fees, pharmaceutical costs, and hospices, will wipe the working middle class from the face of the earth - and take every penny of inheritance saved for their descendants. These “caring professionals” will soon reduce the USA to a two-class society.

Sad to see it get to this but it really is true. It's out of CONTROL.
