An acquaintance, a bicyclist, sent this article to me. The article was then picked up by a blog called "Chicago Bicycle Laws." According to the first article, by Ray Thomas of Portland, Oregon, lawyers who handle bicycle cases are noticing that jurors are showing increasing frustration with injured cyclists: When…
Why should we ask John McCain harsh questions? Because we need to even the playing field. You see, if Barack Obama had McCain’s background, ignorance and bad character, the election would have been over months ago. The news media is holding back, though.

Bruce Schneier at Wired assembled these well-considered responses: "If you aren't doing anything wrong, what…
Michael Moore didn't mention this country in Sicko, but it offers health benefits that exceed those of most other countries, even France. It is a "model of sustainable ecology." And check out the prison. This country has the world's lowest murder rate, yet the longest prison sentence available is 21…
According to the Bush administration's definition of torture, McCain was not tortured. This comment at the Daily Dish has flawless logic, in my opinion.
