“Someone asked on Twitter whether this meant President Obama is also responsible for daughter Bristol’s two unwed pregnancies. Probably shouldn’t give Sarah any ideas.” “Like them or not, agree with them or don’t, conservatives used to espouse clear and consistent values, one of which was an impatience with the so-called culture of victimization.” Links Leonard Pitts Jr.: Palin blames Obama for son’s domestic violence incident Shared with: Public Comments Paul Fernandez - 2016-01-28T02:07:11Z ...

mail.clintonemail.com is running Outlook Web App backed by Microsoft Exchange

I think there’s been entirely too much made of this, but I’m pleased the geeks dug into this and pointed out the obvious problems. I would like to note that https://mail.clintonemail.com/ takes you to the Outlook Web App backed by Microsoft’s Exchange. Would somebody in the press please ask Hillary when she plans to get support for her Outlook addiction? It might be time for intervention.

For all of us that made fun of Richard Stallman and other free software zealots, it is time for reflection. Is open source going to take a stand against overzealous government spies? Maybe hanging out with people that talk about freedom on a regular basis and act on that belief is a good idea after all. Is commercial software going to save us from the Global War on Terrorism? Maybe it is time to put time and earnest effort into our technological future instead of expecting to buy it at 7-11 for $9.99. ...

This doesn't seem like overkill at all.

This doesn’t seem like overkill at all. Millions of euros are being lost! This is so heinous I wonder why they stop at drones. Why not fire an EMP blast at the miscreants to fry their cell phones? That would teach ’em. Or drop tear gas? Maybe that’s too old school. Here’s the plan: identify the kids and robocall their mothers with a list of the crimes their offspring have recently committed. That’s the way to save money here. If the Germans don’t get on top of this we’ll think they’re as wasteful as the Greeks. ...

Here's some raw bullshit for your entertainment and outrage.

Here’s some raw bullshit for your entertainment and outrage. The article is utterly logically flawed. But to address a few points… I hate Sarah Palin because she spews lies with ease. If Ann Romney should be a major factor in this election, why is she not running for an office? Michelle Bachmann thinks Carbon Dioxide is a harmless gas. Crazy happens in all parties and genders, but to be a prominant public Republican female seems to require it before signing up. ...
