    @If_I_Had_a_Poodle: Oh lord, please don't bring that into it... I was just making a lol.

    I call myself an atheist only because I don't believe in any religious definition of an Earth-only god. I think a lot of atheists are very arrogant... But I think we're really only human, and by that fact that we're very inclined to trust mythology and imagination. I'm not sure what happened at the Big Bang, but I wouldn't rule out something that's so big that we wouldn't possibly be able to understand it... which might encompass something godlike, but I think it's self-limiting to try and think of it that way. I guess I'm more of an atheist-agnostic hybrid, but in general, I think religion is beautiful and important as a tool and as a mythology, and all the cosmological history I ever read makes me so excited and so overwhelmed. Anyways, here's the chips, and pass me a beer.

    Medical marijuana is a budding field that resinates with many. Once you hash out the legalities and get your rolling papers in order, you can make a kushy living.
    Pot puns? You can say weed rather not, but we've got a sensimilla of them.

    Goddamn, Pareene. Nailed it.

    Maureen Dowd is a tired, weak, shatteringly insecure hack who hasn't had an original thought of her own in 20 years and who recycles the latest talking points of Drudge, etc., after she blends them with her own stew of innuendos, slander, lies and general misrepresentation. Plus her hair is ugly.

    Also, I think the left needs to own this narrative: "speak for real Americans," "protect the rights of real Americans," "stand up for Americans," and take back those words from these insane Christianist ne0-fascist zealot ideologue mouthbreathing submorons, you feel me?

    Douthat: "Both (Palin and Huckabee) came from lower-middle-class backgrounds, and joined a soft-edged social conservatism to a strong populist streak. "

    What does "soft-edged" mean here? That they are to be applauded for not literally stoning the gays and adulteresses to death as the Bible says? That they ferociously oppose affordable health care for the poor but say so in such a sunny way?

    I'm not sure why Palin is supposed to be brilliantly managing her book tour when the second day on it she pissed off a crowd of frozen Hoosiers by scooting early, thereby underscoring the fact that she's a quitter who knocks off early when the going gets tough. But then, I don't understand most of what twinkle tits Mo is saying more of the time.
