Boehner seems to think that the community center being put up by a Muslim organization a couple blocks from ground zero is insensitive: The decision to build this mosque so close to Ground Zero is deeply troubling, as is the president’s decision to endorse it.

This Rand-cult bonehead drove over 12,000 miles back and forth across the US, clicking his GPS logger on and off at selected points to create a series of waypoints that would spell out his message to the world when displayed in Google Earth, if anyone bothers to look. (Yeah, I’m spreading the message for him [...]

The hapless, and very disconcerting, Alvin Greene – you remember, the confused and incoherent character who spent his entire military and disability benefits to enter the South Carolina Democratic primary race for the Senate, and inexplicably won without campaigning – has finally been indicted on the obscenity charges that were hanging over him since before [...]

And it apparently doesn’t involve paper: E-books are becoming more popular by the minute thanks to devices like the Kindle, Nook, and iPad, but major dead tree publishers have been hesitant to go all in—until now.
