Gi Bill passes

The new GI bill passed the senate 75-22. here is the tally. Kay baily voted for it (she seems to be evolving into a republican moderate), Cornyn voted against it.

McCain & Coburn (R-ok) were too chicken shit to vote.

Every single vote against it came from a republican, way to support the troops you lying sacks of shit.

Leon Kass is a fuckwit

So I read this interesting story about the President's Council on Bioethics. It's head (and the guy who selected most of the members) is Leon Kass. Even amoung bush's clowns he stands out as particularly inane, check out this from one of his essay's.

Worst of all from this point of view are those more uncivilized forms of eating, like licking an ice cream cone--a catlike activity that has been made acceptable in informal America but that still offends those who know eating in public is offensive. ... Eating on the street--even when undertaken, say, because one is between appointments and has no other time to eat--displays [a] lack of self-control: It beckons enslavement to the belly. ... Lacking utensils for cutting and lifting to mouth, he will often be seen using his teeth for tearing off chewable portions, just like any animal. ... This doglike feeding, if one must engage in it, ought to be kept from public view, where, even if we feel no shame, others are compelled to witness our shameful behavior.
