Free kibbles

FREEDOM OF SPEECH:

Companies are feeling the heat and are pulling support for SOPA.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

More evidence that the Medieval Warming Period was warmer than today.

FOREIGN POLICY:

Iran once again offers to negotiate on its nuclear program. It has offered that many times, but they always fail because western governments never acknowledge the Iranian people have a right to nuclear power.

POLITICS:

This headline shows what we've done to ourselves.
"In 2012, Obama to press on without Congress"
Over the decades, voters have created an imperial presidency, and Obama is taking advantage of it.

Somebody's poll, I don't know whose, says that Santorum has surpassed Ron Paul in Iowa to put him second behind Romney. I hope this is wrong. We've suffered many flavors of the week during the preliminary contests. From Bachmann to Perry to Cain to Gingrich, voters have flipped from one to the other until they realized who they were supporting. During all this protest drama, Ron Paul has been slowly and steadily gaining supporters. I hope Iowa caucus goers won't fall for the next flavor of the week by supporting Santorum, but they might. Ron Paul, for all his polling and internet victories, has never shown he can win an election outside his district. Prove it to me. I root for Ron Paul every election. I've disappointed every election. Prove to me you win. Win Iowa.

LOCAL:

What kind of weirdos would publish an article that pretended there was a beach along I-70. Hello. Indianapolis to Dayton to Columbus is landlocked. Not to denigrate anybody's death, but this charade is outrageous.
