  • Our secret drone war with Pakistan continues apace! There were three separate drone attacks today. Somewhere around two-dozen people who may or may not have been "militants" may or may not have been killed.
  • Maybe the Ticketmaster fees on that Glenn Beck/Sarah Palin 9/11 death-porn festival wouldn't be so steep if Obama's Justice Department bothered to pursue antitrust cases.
  • Dianne Feinstein may be chairing the No on 19 campaign, but her colleague Barbara Boxer apparently has aides just bring her herb to the office. (J/k, Boxer fired this poor schmuck who tried to bring marijuana to the Capitol.)
  • The ICE is cracking down on undocumented restaurant workers, which means, uh, I guess that's it for restaurants.
  • Don't you dare accuse Mike Castle of not signing on to whatever idiot teabagger nonsense the rubes are riled up about!
