CSM sez that Paul Helmke dba Brady Center sez that Pennsylvania has the 10th strictest gun laws in the country. Huh? As a resident of the only southern state that should have made the list (but mysteriously did not) I’d gladly trade our gun laws for their any day of the week.

This dubious distinction goes to Steve Lawson who, without recognizing the irony, decried “those who have blamed the president for the Bush-inflicted economy” in response to a polling question having nothing to do with either Bush or the economy.

I’ve never doubted that Sarah Palin’s boobs are real, but how would I know if they weren’t since my eyes aren’t, either. This silly controversy reaffirms my view that we don’t call women’s breasts “boobs” because of what they are, but because that’s what they turn *us* into.

And Now, a Word from Reverend Right
