Various things....
Scientists who believe that global warming is not caused by man, but natural things such as cycles of sunspots, based on historical warming and cooling periods of the earth over the last several millenia, are being silenced and accused of misconduct. Sounds a lot like the treatment of those who thought the earth was round or not the center of the universe. In Oregon, or so I've read, a state climatologist could be fired simply for his view on it.
New York wants to pass a law banning talking on cell phones or listening to Ipods (or similar) while walking. Because a couple people weren't paying attention and got killed crossing the street. Over reaction is amazing.
The Snickers commercial was pulled because it promotes anti gay sentiment? What? I realize there is another thread on this, but it's ridiculous.
Hillary and Obama may not participate in the first democrat debates. Front runners have no guts. This goes for both parties, not just them.
I have more thoughts, but not the time. Perhaps later.
