At least, California would probably like to force Coke and Pepsi to put ugly, graphic, gross pictures of severely ill people on every can.

Downright unsettlin’, higher education edition:

Instapundit had this quote the other day, from the Chronicle of Higher Education’s Alex Tabarrok: In 2009 the United States graduated 89,140 students in the visual and performing arts, more than in computer science, math, and chemical engineering combined and more than double the number of visual-and-performing-arts graduates in 1985.

Warren Buffett’s Secretary Shouldn’t Have to Buy Sandra Fluke’s Birth Control

Thatisall. File it away under “Say it and watch liberal heads go pop.” Update: The Great One caves in. Partially. But it’s still a cave-in.

Former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson spoke to the Sauk County GOP today, and I just happened to be nearby…

…with my little video camera. Tommy Thompson, perhaps better known as Tommy!, who served 14 years as Wisconsin’s governor before leaving to serve as Dubya’s HHS secretary.
