Rick Perry’s homophobic advertisement has now smashed all YouTube records, and stands at an astonishing 450,000 dislikes.
But Perry has learned his lesson. His new video, an attack on health care and “big government liberals,” has ratings turned off. Take that, liberals.

I was at an "urgent care" office with my son on Wednesday afternoon. Those are practices that provide one-off care, no appointments but charge per visit and are out of network for almost all insurers. They are a good alternative for after-hours care, or in the event of a weekend athletic injury (in our case, this was a follow-up visit for an athletic injury incurred over the weekend). Cost per visit: $135.- which some insurers will reimburse, or apply towards deductibles.
In the waiting room was a trio of middle-aged folks who spent their entire waiting time bitching about "Obamacare". Then they were told that their insurer would not reimburse for a consult at the practice. They left, either for an emergency room or to wait for an appointment with their primary physician.
Totally clueless.

Prop 8 proponents case falling apart
“The question is, was he in a position to try his own case?” the proponents’ attorney Charles Cooper asked. The judges remained incredulous, pressing Cooper if a married judge could ever hear a case about divorce:
“So a married judge could never hear a divorce?” [Judge R. Randy] Smith asked.
“Your honor, I don’t see the difficulty with a married judge hearing a divorce action,” Cooper answered.
Smith replied: “Would he have to disclose, ‘Oh, I’ve been married, and we’ve been married for 24 years and we have a relationship that’s kind of difficult’? That’s what you are arguing here?”
Cooper said the hypothetical situation Smith described was different because if Walker, who is now retired, had “desired to marry his partner, he would have stood in exactly the same shoes as the plaintiffs in this case.”
David Boies, a lawyer representing the two same-sex couples who successfully sued to strike down Proposition 8 in Walker’s court, attacked Cooper’s reasoning, arguing that judicial ethics rules never have required judges to bow out of civil rights cases because they are members of the minority group whose constitutional rights are at issue.
Cooper’s “perverse logic is that only judges, gay or straight, who have no interest in marrying and the institution of marriage would be the only ones who could hear this case,” Boies said. “A heterosexual judge may feel passionately about preserving the institution of marriage. Does that judge have an obligation to volunteer, to come forward, to tell the parties what his views of marriage are and his views of the institution of marriage?”
As Ian Millhiser has noted, “if a court were to accept the anti-gay group’s arguments, it would also follow that no judge who is presently in a committed opposite-sex relationship would be allowed to hear this case either.

The idea that a gay man is biased on the subject of straight marriage but a straight person isn't, either concedes that gay marriage doesn't matter to straight people (and so there's no reason to keep it illegal) or is is simply a piece of bigotry. I know it's really the latter, but I like that logically, the former can be concluded.

Crushing Despair In An Optimistic And Playful Tone Of Voice
This Crazy Republican Primary Is Going to End One Day
Assuming neither one gets caught eating a live kitten on camera, some day very soon reporters covering the presidential election are girding for a Bush-Kerry-esque battle between Mitt Romney and President Obama. But that's so boring! So now's the time to start fantasizing about more dramatic outcomes. And who could blame them? Romney versus Obama is a clash of two cold technocratic types too careful to ever say anything really ridiculous or even accessorize in a cartoonishly manly way. The Democratic euphoria of '08 has passed for Obama and the Republican Party has made it clear that they do not like Romney. It sounds like a long spring for political writers. So several fantasy futures have been crafted as certain people hope they'll have something interesting to write come April.
Darkhorse Candidate
"It wouldn’t be easy to pull off a late draft or a late entry, but it’s not as impossible as conventional wisdom assumes," the Weekly Standard's Bill Kristol wrote this week, pointing to an analysis by Rhodes Cook that someone other than the current eight Republican candidates could swoop in and get the nomination.
The key, I think, would be if both Romney and Gingrich stumbled during January. If that were to happen, there would be a window of opportunity in February -- during the gap between the first spurt of January primaries and Super Tuesday on March 6. The window probably closes around Valentine’s Day - Tuesday, February 14 - so let’s call the late entry the Valentine’s Day option. That could be the last chance (unless there’s a deadlocked convention, which isn’t totally outside the realm of possibility either) for Republicans to throw off the old suitors and run into the arms of a new Prince Charming. Or two. And Valentine’s Day is for the young.

The first few seasons were fine, but it went down a steep hill after about season 6.
I enjoyed SG-1. Atlantis never made much sense to me.

Any kind of women's perfume gives me an instant headache (and I don't usually get headaches). For some reason, men's cologne doesn't cause a headache.
Being hit repeatedly on the head with a two-by-four gives me a huge headache. It's the darnedest thing.

re: #87 Alouette
Everybody is different and responds differently.
I asked my son what is his wife's favorite fragrance, so I can send her a Hanukkah present.
He said, "I don't allow her to wear fragrance."
I screamed "What kind of a control freak monster are you!"
He said, "A monster with allergies."
I can't stand anything beyond the most mild of fragrances. They tend to make me physically ill and irritated. Can't use detergent with a scent, either.

- Obama is opposed to gay marriage
So how do you interpret him saying that DOMA needs to be repealed and instructing the DOJ not to defend it?
And which third party are you a fan of?

Yet, one of the funniest episodes happened to be 200 - when they parodied other sci-fi, including Farscape (and the punch line was that no one knew what they were talking about).

SG-1 was fun, but as Kragar said, it went on a bit too long and sort of lost its way.

Eh, probably so. I think Sam is a good role model for girls.

Girls of a sufficient age to appreciate a woman with that sort of kill count, that is.
I'm not sure a five year old needs to see a woman, no matter how strong, shooting people repeatedly.

I tried to like SGU but it was literally and figuratively too dark.

Oh, sure. Just saying that you could tell they were struggling with how to create conflict when many of the best later episodes largely existed outside of story arcs.

Might as well get them used to the reality of living in a post-apocalyptic warzone at an early age. Give them a head start on the whole feral experience and so forth.

Think about who you're talking to. My kids knew what a base of fire and a maneuver element were by 1st grade. Its a great bonding experience.
