I don't see how they get rid of him. He's a tenured professor. He's got to fuck a student or something.

GravatarInstead: Berkley critics should target whomever granted Yoo tenure and seek the rationale for granting tenure to such an obviously under qualified fellow. Follow duh money.

GravatarI don't see how they get rid of him. He's a tenured professor. He's got to fuck a student or something.

A dean with guts would reassign him to duties that do not involve contact with students, as he's morally unfit to teach.

Tenure means you have a place to work, but the guy should be copying papers for morally fit professors, or parking cars.

Exactly as predicted, then.

Christ, wingnuts are such utter rubes.


GravatarFrom that Times' article on the FAA:

The change began after the T.W.A. 800 and ValuJet disasters in the mid-1990s, when regulators and the industry convened a “safety summit.” Then the Clinton administration formed a national commission in 1997 on aviation safety and security, led by Vice President Al Gore and known as the Gore Commission. It set a goal of cutting the rate of fatal accidents 80 percent over 10 years.

One idea was for the F.A.A. to start working more closely with the industry. If airlines shared their mistakes or problems without fear of retribution, the reasoning went, the system would benefit from these shared lessons.

And it seems to have. Over the next decade, the accident rate fell 65 percent, and this new approach is widely seen as having played a role in the drop.

Then the F.A.A., under the Bush administration...

Gravatar• Breaking tenure? Where there's a will, there's a way. Ward Churchill can tell you all about it. Of course, he left himself wide open for this by heinously and unforgivably violating the impeccable standards of scholarship some time previously. Letting him stay on would have been worse than admitting Pete Rose to the Hall of Fame!

But it's a foregone conclusion that Yoo's closet contains nary a bone-- so there's no reason to even open it to check!

• SB, re: the bogus attack in Texas

It absolutely struck me that this must have been exactly the kind of pathological social dynamic that existed in 17th Century Salem, MA.

Adolescents feel the whirlwinds and breezes of hysteria, and store it up like static electricity. And once someone trips the threshold of acting out, others join in and amp up the voltage with mutual reinforcement-- which, in turn, attracts support and sustenance from the authorities and leaders generating the hysteria.

And then innocent people begin getting zapped.

It's conceivable that Berkeley would (and still might do so) try to act in some manner, but the truth is probably they're scared of assminstration retribution.

Gravatarexcuse please the dumping of this in the thread....just got back from errands.
this is from NYT thumbsucker on charlie black.

it says all anyone needs to know about the DC village and lobbyist/corporate control of candidates:

A little too exact, perhaps, for critics who question how Mr. McCain, a self-described straight talker who rails against the power of special interests, can be advised by one of the city’s best-connected lobbyists. Mark Penn — whose firm, Burson-Marsteller, owns Mr. Black’s firm — stepped aside last week as chief strategist for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign after he met with representatives of the Colombian government, which is pursuing a trade pact that Mrs. Clinton opposes. In an effort to defuse similar concerns about potential conflicts of interest, Mr. Black resigned from his firm, BKSH, the previous week.

Even his resignation displayed the agility that has defined him. Mr. Black has worked for some of the city’s most controversial clients (Jonas Savimbi, Philip Morris, Blackwater) and with the baddest boys of Republican politics (he cut his teeth on Jesse Helms’s campaigns, and was a mentor to Lee Atwater). But he has managed to stay ahead of controversy himself.


GravatarWings score!

GravatarThen the F.A.A., under the Bush administration...

I went to this seminar recently. There were commissioners from the FDA, FTC, and FCC there. All of them made presentations and all of them used the phrases "self-regulation" and "market-based solutions" over and over again.

And yes, there was plenty of snickering.


GravatarThe death raised to at least 19 the number of American troopers killed in Iraq since last Sunday.


Gravatartheodoric, here's what HRC told Willamette Week:

What would you do as president about the federal government not recognizing Oregon’s Medical Marijuana Program as legal?

We’ve got to have a clear understanding of the workings of pain relief and the control of pain. And there needs to be greater research and openness to the research that’s already been done. I don’t think it’s a good use of federal law-enforcement resources to be going after people who are supplying marijuana for medicinal purposes.

So you’d stop the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency’s raids on medical marijuana grows?

What we would do is prioritize what the DEA should be doing, and that would not be a high priority. There’s a lot of other more important work that needs to be done.

Should medical marijuana be covered by insurance?

I don’t have enough information to know anything about that.

Only because at this point there is no hard reason to: no criminal conviction, no lifting of his California license.
