Too many layers.

Hah, this reminds me of a comment I left downstairs:

National Racists Online still demonstrating how willing they are to do whatever possible to avoid accepting the truth:

Buzzfeed’s Illiterate Insinuation

See, the real problem is leftist illiterates like Buzzfeed, not the reality about which the whole story ought to be about.

That NRO article includes this:

[...] Conservatives and Republicans have for too long ceded pop culture’s influence to the Left. If we continue to allow progressives to construct a linear historical narrative that casts conservatives and the Republican party as the villains in every piece, we can kiss goodbye to ever winning a national election again.

One thing is clear, the"conservatives and Republicans" certainly have ceded the Onion to that evul "left".

Good news - not today:

Warming study forsees state water shortage

The future of water for drinking and irrigation looks increasingly bleak throughout California and the world's northern regions as the changing global climate shrinks mountain snowpacks and speeds early runoffs, Stanford researchers forecast.

Decreases in winter snowpacks are likely to be most noticeable during the next 30 years and will continue to shrink through the century, according to an analysis of future climate trends by a team of specialists led by Noah Diffenbaugh at Stanford's Department of Environmental Earth System Science.

"One clear result is that western North America shows the most rapid and largest response to the continued emissions of greenhouse gases when it comes to early snowmelt and spring runoff," Diffenbaugh said.

The result, he and his colleagues say, will be less runoff water for irrigation during the season when California's high-value crops need it most for growing, and also more early springtime flooding that can strain dams and reservoirs before the water reaches lowland cities.

[...]

Not a good long term prognosis.

Stone is nutty enough as to provide National Review with enough fodder for days. He'll blurt out conspiracy theories and they'll bat them down. But its a mistake thinking Oliver Stone speaks "for the left", he really only speaks for himself. But as long as generalizations aren't inappropriately made, there's nothing wrong with having fun smacking down conspiracy theories.

As for Stone himself, he's complicated. Having served in Vietnam seems to have been the defining time of his life, and it left him (understandably) deeply suspicious of authority.

The wages of sports is death:

The most psychotically profane rant you'll ever hear from a golf coach at a Christian college.

A lot of people ask us why we didn't play more team sports as a youth (not really), and this rant is our answer. We just don't want a coach to waste his breath and energy with a profanity-laden attack on our competence when our own inner voice is shouting stuff like this at us all day long. The clip starts with a nice buildup of even-tempered post-game analysis from this Huntingdon College golf coach, but if you get bored advance to the potty-mouthed explosion at 1:55. We are impressed by the Christian college coach's vast arsenal of profanity, but based on some of the stats he's bellowing we have to agree, these guys suck at golf.

Here's the vid, the rant starts at 1:55:

And sure enough:

HUNTINGDON GOLF COACH DISMISSED

Who knew that golf, GOLF, could cause such a brouhaha?

Finally got power wired into my new security system panel. It took two days of planning and thought because these old houses have wires running all over the place and it damn hard to figure out what's still connected and what it might be connected to. I should have all doors and windows secured in a few days.

Remember all that whining by the oil-addicted "conservatives" lamenting how the libruls are keeping us from drilling for our own oil, but that just 90 miles off our shore commie Cuba was going to be a fount of the delicious lubricious fluid? Gingrich et. al., they all joined in this lament.

Well, it was all nonsense, of course, as over the decades petroleum engineers and geologists had concluded that the eastern Gulf was a possibly good play for natural gas but unlikely to be so for crude petroleum.

And sure enough, the results are coming in:

Cuba’s Prospects for an Oil-Fueled Economic Jolt Falter With Departure of Rig

Cuba’s hopes of reviving its economy with an oil boom have produced little more than three dry holes, persuading foreign oil companies to remove the one deepwater rig able to work in Cuban waters so it could be used for more lucrative prospects elsewhere.

It took me a few days to sleep normally again but I'm feeling better now. What I need mostly now is peace of mind when I leave the house for grocery shopping or errands. The break in was a needed wake up for me. I was lulled into complacency and wasn't even locking my doors. Portland is a really safe town but it was bound to happen sooner or later.

If you mean his business sense, then yes. Romney used to be a management consultant, and he parlayed that experience to get investors to give him the funds used to set up Bain Capital.

At this point, I'm reminded overwhelming of the US Mark XIII Air-Launched Torpedo, which hamstrung American torpedo bombers until late 1943. Like ORCA, it was badly flawed and the people in the Navy who should have called attention to the flaws covered them up to make themselves look good, with the result that a number of Japanese ships escaped destruction. As someone who had likely seen this sort of situation and known better, Mitt Romney is to be faulted doubly hard for ORCA's failure.

[Link: www.politifact.com...]

Our ruling

Obama said that "there are millions of women all across the country who rely on Planned Parenthood for not just contraceptive care; they rely on it for mammograms, for cervical cancer screenings."

The critics have a point that Planned Parenthood does not actually provide mammograms; instead, the organization refers patients who need them offsite. Supporters of Planned Parenthood also have a point that the organization serves as an important link between some female patients and the mammograms a doctor determines they need.

On several occasions, Obama has oversimplified and exaggerated what Planned Parenthood does, but he’s also not entirely wrong that the group makes it possible for many women to get mammograms they need. On balance, we rate the statement Half True.

They are correct about that.
WeCheck says....
[Link: wecheck.org...]

Conclusion

1. Planned Parenthood President said that the organization provides mammograms

2. Undercover calls to Planned Parenthood revealed that the organization does not provide mammograms

3. Planned Parenthood is not certified by HHS to provide mammograms

Result: FALSE

They are not correct. It doesn't look like a very reliable site for fact checking.

With all the hand wringing on the right and by the permanent racists, over a supposed coming "amnesty" for illegal immigrants, we sometimes forget that many nations have similar problems (including xenophobia):

EU RULES CHANGE WILL BRING MORE MIGRANTS

MINISTERS are powerless to stop tens of thousands more Eastern European migrants heading to Britain in a new European Union borders shake-up next year, Theresa May admitted yesterday.

The Home Secretary warned the Government is legally unable to block Romanian and Bulgarian citizens from coming to the UK under an expansion of EU “freedom of movement”.

Instead, she vowed to curb access to benefits and NHS treatment for EU immigrants in an attempt at making Britain a less attractive destination for new arrivals.

Five-year-old quotas known as “transitional controls” are due to expire at the end of December 2013 as part of the enlargement of the EU’s single market.

It will give 29 million Bulgarians and Romanians the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK.

[...]

Hmmm... I doubt the battle cry of BULGARIANS!! or ROMANIANS!! would work here in the US.

[Link: www.politifact.com...]

They are correct about that.

Not really, they have an obnoxious, pedantic little point that could be equally applied to Medicare and Medicaid, or any species of private insurance. People rely on them to pay for their care, but they don't actually "provide" any kind of treatment. Planned Parenthood arranges the grants and other agreements that makes mammograms and other preventative care available to low income patients. They aren't just an important link, for such patients PP is crucial.

They are correct. Planned Parenthood doesn't do mammograms, and they're not certified to do them. It's a narrow truth, similar to what you'll see at Politifact or Factcheck. obviously, this site is going to be even sloppier and it'll be less reliable, but the point I'm (hah!) trying to make to you is the same one I always make and you always waft away from-- that just because something is labeled 'factchecker' doesn't mean that it has any more credibility than any other source. Credibilty comes from the record you establish, and the factchecking sites have all had major, major fuckups which show their unreliability.

I tend to look at it is that he was a consultant with expertise in financing. He had very little of the expertise in production and management that other CEOs had, particularly in high tech and manufacturing. That allowed him to think he had skills in managing thousands of people, but he really didn't. His background was more in the financial industry, which doesn't necessarily carry over even to other industries in the rivate sector, let alone government.

And this isn't just one isolated incident in the campaign. There were many bad decisions done during the whole campaign. You can discount some mistakes as some underling error, but with the amount they were churning mistakes, it had an industrial complex feeling.
