From law.com:

When FBI supervisors in Miami met with new interim U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta last month, they wondered what the top enforcement priority for Acosta and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales would be.

Would it be terrorism? Organized crime? Narcotics trafficking? Immigration? Or maybe public corruption?

The agents were stunned to learn that a top prosecutorial priority of Acosta and the Department of Justice was none of the above. Instead, Acosta told them, it’s obscenity. Not pornography involving children, but pornographic material featuring consenting adults.

Microsoft spokesperson Ryan Hamlin:

says the New Zealand Government’s Unsolicited Electronic Messages Bill is “too broad” and could impinge on “the amazing vehicle of e-mail marketing”.

He also wants definitions in the bill changed so that companies would be able to e-mail information about new products and services to customers, even if they had opted out of receiving e-mail about other services they had bought from the company in the past.

Most bumper stickers suck, but I thought these were kinda funny.

With the exception of the last two, I think you could get away with these in some of the red states.

Before he can, let me post it.

Really, though, were we ever under the impression this guy was smart? This is further evidence that his support for stem cell research does not come from any scientific reasoning, but rather concern about Asian governments cornering the embryonic market.

Thank you Frist for showing that doctors truly are human repairmen, rather than intellectuals interested in the pursuit of science. And by the way, conceptualizing discussion about intelligent design as necessary to understand important debates is so circular as to resemble a fucking mobius strip.

A radio show was cancelled in Kentucky for saying the word, “breast”. Yes that’s ludicrous, but it gets better. The show that was cancelled was The Writer’s Almanac hosted by Garrison Fucking Keillor!
