I love this story about an archaeologist trying to find some piece of history the Taliban didn’t get around to destroying.
Best of luck to him.

Here ya go. Knowledge without all the cross-burnings and white hoods that the GOP thinks are handy props.

Just wow.
This guy moved his entire family – and his custom car – from England to Australia just to open a Mad Max museum. I mean, The Road Warrior is one of my favorite flicks but…damn!
Good luck to him. And kudos to his wife for allowing him to dream like this. Hope his kids are having fun with it.

Just when I think NPR has knuckled under to their conservative whims, I hear a story like this.
They still have a LONG way to go before I feel like I should donate to them again but this is a good place to start.
Patients wants health care reform and, prior to the usual fearmongering, over 70% wanted a public option.
But hey, even doctors overwhelmingly support a public plan.

But the insurance company-purchased politicians want to bury the public option from their watered down plans. Do your part to let your representatives know to not only keep it in, but to actively support it.
Apparently the Quislings are proudly stating that two million racists and traitors showed up in DC yesterday to spread sedition.
They lie, as they do with everything else.
According to the DC Fire Department, only 60 to 70,000 showed up. Read more here and here on the hate and lies they tried to spread.
Incidentally, the teabaggers swear ABC reported 1.5 million traitors, which is also a lie.
Here’s David Axelrod doing a very good job of not saying these idiots are full of it. Incidentally, Bob Schieffer really IS turning into a conservative douchebag of late:
Once again, what liberal media?
Hell, even NBC is covering up for these racists.
Oh yeah, apparently Joe McCarthy is back in vogue for the traitors.

Who has done a better job of keeping the country safer – George Bush or Barack Obama? Well, as soon as it we make it past the morning of 9/11, then Obama will have officially kept us safer longer than George Bush did. It’s empirical. You can’t argue with it.
