Counting Crazy

Tuesday, August 31, 2010

Estimates of the crowd size at Saturday’s Beckapalooza tell an interesting story: CBS News commissioned a crowd estimate from AirPhotosLive.com, which based their count on aerial pictures it took during the rally. They estimated 87,000, with a margin of error of 9,000. So they claim between 78,000 and 96,000 people attended. Sarah Palin claimed over […]

The American Dark Ages Cometh

Sunday, August 29, 2010

I have long wondered how, after centuries of great civilizations, such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome, the western world could have then retreated into the “dark ages”. Population declined, especially in urban centers, there was less trade, and a decided lack of literary and cultural output. Reading Timothy Egan’s opinion piece “Building a Nation of […]

The Terrorists have Won

Sunday, August 29, 2010

A fire at the construction site of the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro (in a town near Nashville TN) has been ruled as arson. Gasoline was poured on several pieces of construction equipment and ignited. So let me get this straight. Someone who considers themselves to be a real American was upset about terrorism, so they […]

How far away from ground zero would you like?

Friday, August 27, 2010

Yes, I know I said I was going to try to ignore the whole “ground zero mosque” meme, but I can’t help myself. Especially when The Daily Show is this funny.

RNC chair and Bush campaign manager announces he is gay

Thursday, August 26, 2010

And, as someone snarkily put it, he wasn’t even arrested before he made the announcement. Even more, he plans […]
