    People say the same things about the DEA and IRS quite frequently. (Short-sighted people also say it about things like NPR, NASA, and the EPA.) Complaining about government waste i…

    I think there is some "vocal minority" stuff going on here, particularly with regard to the look and feel of Google's app. For starters, far from being "fluid", Google's app consis…

    He has to track down the person who originally came up with the status code "PC LOAD LETTER" and give them a cameo. He has to.

    Santorum is "unelectable" in the same way as Sarah Palin. Since they are so extreme, there will always be a small, dedicated swath of people who like them, and they can even get en…

    Romney lost because he was a terrible candidate, simple as that. Even the Republican base hated him. Right now the GOP leadership is busy flailing around trying to figure out why t…
