On The Other Hand, We’d Never Be Rid Of His Voice…
I don’t want to hear another darned thing about “My Pet Goat” after seeing this photo. For that matter, I don’t want to hear another comment about what an excellent public speaker Barack Obama is either. That he had to have a teleprompter to give a speech to sixth-graders, means that he’s not a very [...]
China to Google: Get Bent! We’ll Censor Whatever We Want.

I’m not sure how you get a more textbook “good news/bad news” situation than this story about a recent PPP poll looking ahead to 2012. First, the good news.
