Hot air fresh off launching it’s Green Room feature is now considering a special room for Liberals to post.

I say it is a brilliant idea. If you are supporting yourself via web views and ads the more people you have the better. And if they get foolish or outrageous then it can be dropped.

I don’t know why this story isn’t bigger

After all it isn’t every day people are busted in a Western City with Uranium.

It might be considered benign but did the people who possessed it know that?

How are the Three Stooges like the Godfather?

You can watch both over and over and never get sick of them. Particularly if you are a man and especially if you are a Sicilian man.

This applies to the first two Godfather movies, the Third actually isn’t a bad movie but the other ones are SO good that it really hurts the other one by comparison. I think the third movie really seals the tragedy of Michael Corleone.

The right way

that something is done:

The Vermont Senate voted overwhelmingly Monday to legalize same-sex marriage, potentially setting the stage for a high-profile legislative showdown and breaking a new political barrier in the state that made history in 2000 by becoming the first to approve civil unions for gay and lesbian couples.

If the bill becomes law, Vermont will become the first state to legalize same-sex marriage without being forced to do so by the courts.

The bill, which passed the 30-member chamber by a 26-4 margin, moves to the Vermont House, where it is also expected to be approved. Republican Gov. Jim Douglas, however, has said he doesn’t support the bill.

As you might have guessed I’m not a fan of Gay marriage but if a state’s representatives choose to vote for it and passes it through normal legal procedures then I don’t have a problem. When elected representatives act for the will of the people and if the people don’t like them they can be voted out. If this is what the people of Vermont want then until and unless they change their minds so be it.
