Bill Clinton: ‘Obama must kiss my ass’ 57
That ‘horrible primate’ Bill Clinton (to quote Christopher Hitchens’s description of him) says that Obama will have to ‘kiss my ass’ if he wants his support.

‘Destroy Islam’ 141
‘Islam is nothing but one man’s insanity,’ says this author, Ali Sina. It cannot be reformed, so ‘destroy it.’
Muhammad was ‘a narcissist, a misogynist, a pedophile, a lecher, a torturer, a mass murderer, a cult leader, an assassin, a terrorist, a mad man and a looter,’ he says, and he offers $50,000 to anyone who can prove him wrong.
Another shocking Obama link 240

‘She sees her savior in Barack Obama.’

Evolution observed 104
This great event has just been reported by Little Green Footballs.
In an experiment that has been underway for 20 years at Michigan State University, biologist Richard Lenski has actually observed evolution at work in E. Coli bacteria.
A major evolutionary innovation has unfurled right in front of researchers’ eyes. It’s the first time evolution has been caught in the act of making such a rare and complex new trait.
And because the species in question is a bacterium, scientists have been able to replay history to show how this evolutionary novelty grew from the accumulation of unpredictable, chance events.
Twenty years ago, evolutionary biologist Richard Lenski of Michigan State University in East Lansing, US, took a single Escherichia coli bacterium and used its descendants to found 12 laboratory populations. The 12 have been growing ever since, gradually accumulating mutations and evolving for more than 44,000 generations, while Lenski watches what happens.
Mostly, the patterns Lenski saw were similar in each separate population. All 12 evolved larger cells, for example, as well as faster growth rates on the glucose they were fed, and lower peak population densities.
But sometime around the 31,500th generation, something dramatic happened in just one of the populations – the bacteria suddenly acquired the ability to metabolise citrate, a second nutrient in their culture medium that E. coli normally cannot use.
Indeed, the inability to use citrate is one of the traits by which bacteriologists distinguish E. coli from other species. The citrate-using mutants increased in population size and diversity.
“It’s the most profound change we have seen during the experiment. This was clearly something quite different for them, and it’s outside what was normally considered the bounds of E. coli as a species, which makes it especially interesting,” says Lenski.
Obama as an indirect danger? 181
The President appoints the people he works with, who may be very bad for the country, but the President himself is not to be held responsible for any harm they do?
So thinks Bill Steigerwald, interviewed in Townhall:
Q: If he [Barack Obama] became president, would you lose any sleep at night?
A: I wouldn’t over him. I would worry about the people he would surround himself with. I have a very high opinion of him in most respects. I don’t think he’d do anything consciously to put the country in peril. But I would worry about who his secretary of state was, I’d worry about who his secretary of interior was, I’d worry that he’d be hostile to private enterprise and the appointments he’d make. But he himself doesn’t really bother me at all.
An outstanding example of stupidity!
