Michelle Obama applauded New York's proposed ban on large sugary drinks. It's got the city in turmoil. Last night the police let a guy go for having less than twenty-five grams of marijuana on him but arrested him for having more than sixteen ounces of Pepsi.
New York governor Andrew Cuomo proposed legalizing pot on Tuesday. Supporters call for taxing pot like alcohol to raise much-needed tax revenues. Ten years from now anybody who stays sober will be accused by Democrats of not paying their fair share.
President Obama infuriated Democrats and union leaders by refusing to campaign in Wisconsin Tuesday. His tweet didn't help. Obama said that while the Spurs must be respected for their character and skill it's hard not to love the Thunder's youth and talent.
NASA astronomers reported Monday the Earth will be destroyed in four billion years when the Milky Way collides with the Andromeda Galaxy. The Hubble Telescopes can see the crash coming. The Mayans just issued a new calendar with twelve more zeros on it.
Mitt Romney gave away free t-shirts to GOP volunteers who made phone calls on his behalf Tuesday. They felt a little weird. It was the first time these volunteers have ever worn a short-sleeved cotton shirt without an alligator or a polo player over the left breast.
John McCain called for a probe of who in the White House leaked President Obama's terrorist kill list, the cyber-attack on Iran and use of a Western double agent inside al-Qaeda to thwart the latest airline bombing attempt. These leaks endanger our sources, our agents and our national security. From now on, no birth certificate, no security clearance.
