— Ace Only one in ten of the uninsured who qualify for Obamacare have bothered to sign up for it. Seems like a pretty good reason to take away everyone else's insurance.
Obama, for his part, thinks Obamacare is working exactly the way it should.
Completely unrelated I'm sure, but Bobby Jindal thinks it's time to revisit our assumption that Barack Obama is a smart man.
At Sarah Hoyt's place, a guest post about the science-fiction community's descent into busybodying, witch-hunting intolerance.
From @rdbrewer4 in the sidebar, @charlescwcooke notes the downside -- for Democrats -- of a filibuster-free world. They had to kill the nomination of that Adegbile character themselves. There was no Republican filibuster which would allow them to hide.
From @tsrblke, Volokh considers one of the dumber posts ever appearing at Salon, and when I say it's one of the dumber posts ever appearing at Salon, I really mean only that it's a post appearing at Salon. When you're drowning in a sea of stupid, you really can't parse out the relative heights of stupid-waves.
Also from @rdbrewer4, scientific proof that nothing's funny if you analyze it to death.
One of the coolest things of the day comes from @comradearthur, who links this tour of the solar system, which is -- for once -- in proper scale.
Your usual depiction of the solar system cannot display distances to scale because the distances between planets are so enormously huge the planets would be smaller than a single pixel and hence invisible.
Well, this link aims to show you what Douglas Adams meant when he had the Hitchhiker's Guide define space's size in this way:
“Space,” it says, “is big. Really big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space. "
And it defines infinity thus:
Infinte: Bigger than the biggest thing ever and then some. Much bigger than that in fact, really amazingly immense, a totally stunning size, real "wow, that's big," time. Infinity is just so big that by comparison, bigness itself looks really titchy. Gigantic multiplied by colossal multiplied by staggeringly huge is the sort of concept we're trying to get across here.
It's a neat link. I'd like to tell you the first billion kilometers are the hardest, but in fact the solar system is relatively action-packed with planets in the first billion kilometers. It's the last four and a half billion kilometers where you start to get a sense of what "empty space" really means.
Empty... space.
So that's why they call it that.
Thanks for help on the Hitchhiker's Guide quotes to Mike in the Hinterlands.

"Obama, for his part, thinks Obamacare is working exactly the way it should.
Does anybody really think it had anything to do with certain people not having enough healthcare or simply the fact that he thought certain people were spending too much on healthcare...

I'll contribute to random shit thread. Repost. Have a great night everybody.
The Aztecs (people, not shitty vehicle) had about 35MM people under their rule/empire. It is estimated that they sacrificed 250,000 people to their gods PER YEAR, which would be a rate of about 2 an hour.
But the conquistadors, those are the bad guys. LOL.

I'm guessing an SAT score along the lines of an average Junior College football player (between 800 and 1000 tops), and would guess his IQ in the high-ish double digits, i.e. trainable but rocket science was never an option the same way rocket science was never an option for Patrick in SpongeBob.

A nation of 330million or so have had their health insurance - and healthcare - ruined for the sake of insuring 4 million, and for the sake of the government getting a ridiculous amount of control over its citizens.
But mostly for the control.

"In a press conference, Secretary Kerry provided a completely different version of his talks with Minister Lavrov. Kerry did not repeat anything that Lavrov said.
Comment: It is not possible to square the circle of the two versions of the bilateral talks. Readers could wonder whether the two men were in the same room.
From the NightWatch personal experience, Kerry exaggerates, frequently having to backtrack from his grandiose rhetorical flourishes. Lavrov is a statesman in the old European school. He never departs from his brief."

Tying into science thread, you mean the hypothesis of a higher intelligence and/or power in our lightbringer in chief? Assumes facts not in evidence, which the MSM was more than happy to do.

I was in the car yesterday and happened across the NPR coverage of the issue.
As you would imagine, it consisted overwhelmingly of abstruse apologetics on behalf of this quite unsympathetic nominee. Plenty of indignant pearl-clutching and recourse to the fainting couch. Because TEH RAYCISS, eleventy!
One of the Democrats defending Adegbile said something to the effect that Adegbile had "never represented [the cop murdering scumbag] in court".
I immediately homed in on that particular choice of wording. Because I'm pretty sure that Adegbile did actually put in working hours as an attorney on the appellate defense effort on behalf of "Abu-Jamal" or whatever the hell his name is.
My suspicion is that Adegbile never actually walked into a courtroom in front of a judge in connection with the matter. Making the claim that he had never been "in court" on the cop-killer's behalf one of those technically legalistically true factoids.

It's not an argument, it's a bit of data that show he is not the super-genius that was claimed of him just a few years ago.
Extraordinarily intelligent people will do well on those tests. Sure, there are a few who won't but it is a very rough measure of intelligence, and if one is off the charts like the chocolate Jesus, then one will do well enough to make the cutoff for NMS consideration.

@36 No fucking words...
Obama National Field Director Jeremy Bird and his partner, Betsey Hoover, just went through a tragic loss -- the pre-mature birth of their baby boy Elijah, and his death only a few hours later. Now Bird is using the terrible experience to help push Obamacare.

Sounds like John Edwards and his "story that he never told anyone else" about the death of his child. Even Kerry was repulsed when Edwards told him the story a second time... including the bit about how Edwards had supposedly never told anyone the story before.

Another thing to think about, put your mind back to the end of the US Civil war. You live in the south, your plantation burned by the Union Army, your food supplies seized, and you decide to try for California.
You load up what little you have left, saddle up, put the draft animals in harness, and then you walk three thousand miles. It used to get me when I was living in that eighteen wheeler. I'd do 600-800 miles in 28 hours and think about those people walking.
Or the sailing vessels from New York around the Cape to San Francisco eight months transit on a good voyage.

One guy told me the word "couch" was one of those insidious words that test makers use to weed out blacks. The appropriate word apparently is "sofa".

My wife's Grandma put plastic on her wood furniture. Then she put flower vases and other heavy objects on the plastic. Then she left them in the same place for years.
When we took the plastic covers off the furniture it stripped the finish and a bit more off. The table cost a bunch to refinish.

I can't remember where I read it, it was about a year ago. Board of Education in Florida felt that schools were meeting their goals if 90% of Asians, 88% of whites, 80% of Hispanics and 78% of blacks met the criteria for achieving educational goals. (disclaimer: the percentages are a rough estimation according to my memory). I was appalled that in one stroke of the pen, the BoE had written off almost a quarter of all black youth as being unable to meet the goals and unteachable, but they thought that was acceptable. (disclaimer 2: I'm an old white guy) I was like WTF?

@405 OT. Vladimir Putin has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The irony is indescribable. The final nail in the Nobel coffin.
-----------------------
Getting nominated doesn't mean anything. It's apparently pretty easy to get someone nominated. This has come up before due to various other people getting nominated.
All that matters is who actually gets the prize. Of course, given that one of the past winners was Barak Obama, and he won pretty much "just because", there's definitely still a reason to ignore the Peace Prize.

Ssssssh.
It's actually great to have a huge swathe of Progtardia still swooning over Abortion Barbie's pink shoes and sending her tons of money.
Money is going to be in short supply in a lot of Democrats' races this year, and letting a liberal candidate who can't win dry up the funding for other liberals who might win is a consummation devoutly to be wished.

Funny story. I doubt anyone was actually hunting anything, though.
The most we saw growing up were stray dogs and chickens. When my friends come and visit from home they are always aghast at the road kill and find it fascinating that you actually see wild animals like deer while you're driving.
To set the record straight, I grew up in a city in very modern conditions (aside from an unstable electricity supply from - you guessed it - the government). I have seen huts before and entered a couple in my lifetime.
The only lion I saw was in a zoo. (West Africa, we don't have big game reserves like East and Southern Africa.) Poor lion looked really hungry.Posted by: chique d'afrique (the artist formerly known as african chick) at March 06, 2014 05:05 PM (r+7wo)

When I hear someone talk about 'big bang' or global warming, or evolution, or any other theory, here's what I say in a non-threatening Presbyterian way: 'All that stuff belongs to GOD. HE can do whatever HE likes with HIS stuff.' Word.

This.
With the intensity of a thousand exploding suns.
Issa is a frankly awful politician when it comes to message management, he has zero skills, and he SIMPLY WILL NOT LEARN.
If Issa had let Cummings rant it would have been evidence of Republican racism or something. The media has Republicans in a double bind.

If you listen, you'll hear Cummings say he has a _procedural_ question.
In other words, he had no intention of actually asking the witness anything.
Cummings wanted to yell indignantly and bang the table and condemn the proceedings under the guise of his "procedural question".
And Issa should have allowed that.
Sat back and smiled faintly and let Cummings rant and rave.
Often when you let people run on? They run over the edge. And end up making themselves look ridiculous and dishonest. There was a golden opportunity there to let Cummings do just that.
Issa should have taken the opportunity. Instead he got accused of TEH RAYCISS ELEVENTY over trying to "silence" Cummings.. And had to issue a hat-in-hand apology. Winning!

When Richard raced with a broken leg (and the crew hefted him into the car), he used to have Goody's taped to his crutches. Later, in the broadcast booth for CBS, he had Goody's tucked inside hat band.

As for the too drunk to stand state? And/or the spins?
I hate wasting good booze, but when you're that far gone, it's not good booze any longer. Crawl into the bathroom and talk to Ralph on the big white phone for a while. You'll feel better.
Afterwards, sock back some clean cool water to rehydrate.

Long ago, my older brother and I were out drinking all night one time and ate breakfast at the Waffle House between Hartwell, GA and Anderson, SC. He had a headache and put 3 Goodys in one paper to chase with a CoCola. He accidentally snorted those Goodys up his nose. Then to top that stunt he puked scrambled eggs out of his nose. Good times, man. Good times. Sometimes I miss that guy.
