I'm gritting my teeth over the Warren thing, but I'm suspecting it's all part of a plan to announce a gigantic climate change program-- massive public works program for a renewable power grid, regulation of GHG by the EPA, etc.-- in the first weeks of the new administration. It certainly looks like that's where he's heading, anyway.

Controversy Over New 'Conscience' Rule
By Daniel J. DeNoon Dec. 19, 2008 --

Hey, I have a Rick Warren defender insisting he has the same two suits he had 16 years ago. Of course, there's no way he would fit into them, but that escaped el Defender's notice. really,
The sponsors of Proposition 8 on Friday revealed for the first time that they would fight to undo the marriages of the estimated 18,000 same-sex couples who exchanged vows before voters banned gay marriage at the ballot box last month. The Yes on 8 campaign filed a brief telling the court that because the new law holds that only marriages between a man and a woman are recognized or valid in California, the state can no longer recognize the existing same-sex unions. "Proposition 8's brevity is matched by its clarity. There are no conditional clauses, exceptions, exemptions or exclusions," reads the brief co-written by Kenneth Starr, dean of Pepperdine University's law school and the former independent counsel who investigated President Bill Clinton. Both Brown and gay rights groups maintain that the gay marriage ban may not be applied retroactively.

An 11th-hour ruling from the Bush administration gives health care
workers, hospitals, and insurers more leeway to refuse health services
for moral or religious reasons.
The Grand Rapids Press has an article today asking a couple of physicians their opinions on this ruling.
An Ob/Gyn (the guy who performed my ablation) said that he thinks it's a great ruling because he personally opposes abortion. He also said that he will (and has) actually counsel(ed)women who are thinking about an abortion not to get one, because "every life is sacred."
When I met this doc, he creeped me out. Not one bit surprised by his comments.
I see this whole thing as a giant slippery slope, especially for women. But what if you're gay, and a doctor refuses to treat you because being gay goes against his or her moral values? What if you're Hispanic, and a doctor refuses to treat you because he's anti-immigration?
And so on.

™Dave I agree.
As does Glennzilla. Andrew's argument here is the one that Obama loyalists generally are making: yes, what Obama is doing might appear to be exactly the same as what Democrats have been doing since forever -- the accommodationist embrace of the Right, the effort to establish centrist credentials by scorning the Left, running away from cultural issues for fear of being depicted as amoral radicals, surrounding oneself with establishment and conservative figures, etc. etc. (Bill Clinton also had a Republican Defense Secretary). Yes, that may look exactly like what the capitulating Bush-era Democrats and the triangulating Bill "the Third Way!" Clinton spent years and years and years doing.
But this time, say Obama supporters, everything will be different.
This time, it's all being done for different -- for more noble -- purposes. When Obama does it, it's not merely a cynical political calculation the way it was when Dick Morris in the 1990s and Rahm Emanuel this decade did it. Instead, in Obama's hands, it's a master strategy for bringing the country together and transforming politics -- all to enable Obama to fulfill his authentically-issued promises and achieve his progressive goals.
As I said, it's certainly possible that will be true -- like many people, I hope it is -- but I would also hope, particularly in light of how familiar this strategizing seems, that people will demand some actual proof before believing in such lavish claims of transformative and transcendent change. People are suspicious of this sort of Democratic maneuvering precisely because they've seen it so many times in the past and know how it ends. It seems perfectly rational not to trust it until there is evidence that warrants that trust.
Of course you should let your objections be known.

And it's not just the so-called conscience loophole. Abortion procedures aren't being taught widely any more. Put that all together with loss of funding and broken local health care systems, and you've got the worst part of "keeping abortion legal, safe and rare". Making it illegal is just the finishing touch.

I have difficulty with progressives' antipathy to Carolyn getting the seat. When you look at the former experience of those that have come to the senate, exs. Bunning - the ex ball player, Murkoski - her dad was senator, the 2 women from Maine - former assistants to a senator, Edwards - a former trial lawyer, Corzine - former Wall Street barron, Kennedy looks eminently qualified.
Cuomo & Carolyn both are deserving. She's got a first rate mind, has been a great activist for education, safety net issues. I saw her on TV & she's incredibly articulate & knowledgeable. Sure, she hasn't occupied political office but you need numbers of people in the legislature who haven't been caught in the group mindset of the legislature. I think she'd serve as another Franken.
Where I part company with many blogosphere progressives is that I place policy considerations highly above process matters. Thus, I give higher priority on achieving progressive policy goals over how to pick candidates, personal defects. I sense that Carolyn would be a strong voice for progressive issues. I don't have a horse in the race but think Carolyn is getting a bad rap.

For those who are serious about egg questions -- from wiki:
Most commercially produced chicken eggs intended for human consumption are unfertilized, since the laying hens are kept without roosters. Fertile eggs can be purchased and eaten as well, with little nutritional difference. Fertile eggs will not contain a developed embryo, as refrigeration prohibits cellular growth for an extended amount of time.
A chicken will begin laying eggs at about eighteen weeks old and will lay one a day (occasionally two) if light patterns are regulated in the coop. They lay in response to the light patterns. They need never see a rooster in their entire lives. Older hens lay larger eggs than younger hens.

Having Rick Warren give the invocation does two things that are very important for a successful administration. 1) It tells people who are still spooked by his name that Obie's not an enemy of their religion. 2) When Obama throws his support behind something pro-gay, he's going to be in a strong position to lecture conservative fat heads on tolerance when they start trying to play victim.

S'ok, Obama's going to win the war in Afghanistan. He likes that war.
Hecate, Runnymeade Conspirator
My sense is that Obama is using Afghanistan as a crutch for getting out of Iraq, ie. Afghanistan is the real war. Once he gets us out of Iraq, he can work on a settlement among the various warring factions & then leave (the latter is my hope that this is the master plan).

When Obama throws his support behind something pro-gay, he's going to be in a strong position to lecture conservative fat heads on tolerance when they start trying to play victim.
Yeah. Right. They will totally shut up and slink away. No, they won't.
Again, if Hil were the president-elect and she'd picked a minister who didn't think black people deserved to get married, I doubt we'd hear all this nonsense about what brilliant ju jitsu it is.

I never got the sense that Eisenhower was especially quick, but that man was methodical. Reading about him I got the idea that he kept worrying and turning an idea in his head till he understood it fully. example: it took him a while to shut down the McCarthy communist hearings but he did do this eventually. On the MIC (military industrial complex) this also took awhile for him to come to his end of term statements about it.

I say that the health care workers' ruling is discrimination, and there is someone on the GR Press comments forum who poses this argument to me:
It's not discrimination. It just means that a doctor is not being forced to do something that they don't believe is right. It will have little to no effect on patients because they will be able to easily find a doctor to fit their needs. This is a good example of the government not telling people how to live their lives and run their business.

How is "sorry I can't help you" forcing your beliefs on someone. It's exercising someones belief. Since when has government been allowed to prevent people from exercising their beliefs. The first amendment gives all people these rights. All people include doctors. As far as your birth control example the government would be forcing their belief on the doctor if the doctor is forced to give out a birth control prescription. Maybe religious people are forcing their beliefs on other people by having churches that are visible with signs that are visible.

''' I don't usually reveal sources, but I think this is incredibly important. Michael Connell died in a plane crash last night. He was a key witness in the Ohio election fraud case that I have been reporting on. More importantly, however, he had information that he was ready to share.
You see, Mike Connell set-up the alternate email and communications system for the White House. He was responsible for creating the system that hosted the infamous GWB43.com accounts that Karl Rove and others used. When asked by Congress to provide these emails, the White House said that they were destroyed. But in reality, what Connell is alleged to have done is move these files to other servers after having allegedly scrubbed the files from all "known" Karl Rove accounts. '''

I'd be happy to. These arguments remind me of undergrad research papers in which many seem to think stringing together words in some kind of reasonably correct grammatical form somehow magically translates into a rational argument or clarity of thought.

Dean Rothbard apologizes to christian wackos for the low percentage of similarly stupid jews.
In the wake of such Jewish philistinism, how am I to respond to my non-Jewish friends who wonder, with increasingly vocal and justifiable irritation, why Protestants and Catholics and Mormons recognize the threat that electing Barack Obama poses to Israel's existence, yet the vast majority of American Jews won't?
All that I can say, really, is "I am profoundly sorry."
Seriously, is this person nuts? Not making any sense to me.
Maybe there is an extremely religious doctor who is really good at what he/she does. This doctor can identify illnesses within 10min of meeting with a patient. This doctor is never wrong. This doctor loves his/her job. This doctor is obviously in the wrong field if they don't want to dispense birth control or perform an abortion.
America is made up of different people with different beliefs, and that is why this country is great. Opponents of this are basically saying that it's great to have different beliefs as long as they are the same as yours. They are also saying that you can have different beliefs than me but you are not allowed to practice them. They are saying that all people have rights if they agree with what I agree.

I don't suffer from pain during a bowel movement, I don't have blood (either fresh or old -- no black stools or coffee grounds), and my fecal occult test was negative for hidden blood. My poop is historically medium-to-light brown and at times has the smell of gastric juices, almost as if my food passes too fast through my system.

Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation which occurs a considerable length of time before the end of the lifespan.
The word was first applied to humans, and because of this it literally means the cessation of monthly cycles or menstrual cycles, from the Greek roots meno (month) and pausis (a halt).

Some people fail to grasp (or pretend to anyway) that certain professions, like medicine or the military, entail being required to perform actions that might not fit one's personal ethos.
Being a free country, one is free not to pursue those career choices. However, taking an oath to provide medical care means your personal objections are irrelevant. Just like taking an oath to defend and protect the Constitution means your personal predilections for things like torture and illegally spying on citizens must be set aside.
Hmm, I think I see the problem....

I tried the high-fiber intake. That would bulk them up almost to a point of a perfect cylinder, or a round poop like they used to be years ago. I have suffered from this for three or so years and am now about forty-eight hours from a colonoscopy. And I'm very, very scared they will find cancer or something else.

Their idea of "personal responsibility" is that their only responsibility is to themselves and their desires. Refusing to provide legal medical care to someone in need when that is what you have both contracted to do and sworn an oath to do is at the very least more than inexcusably selfish and betrays a lack of compassion or concern for others that should almost be definition exclude one from being licensed into a healing profession.

About 3/4 of your average turd is made of water. Of course, this value is highly variable - the water content of diarrhea is much higher, and the amount of water in poop that has been retained (voluntarily or otherwise) is lower. Water is absorbed out of fecal material as it passes through the intestine, so the longer a turd resides inside before emerging, the drier it will be.
