Petition to Impeach Thomas
Lance Sjogren
Petitions are circulating to impeach Clarence Thomas.
It makes sense. The establishment believes in destroying the career of
anyone who doesn't agree with its ideology. It is most zealous about
that when the person is in a position of influence. Hence it makes
perfect sense that they want to impeach Thomas.
Tim adds:
Younger readers won't know how shamefully the Democrats treated Clarence Thomas at his confirmation hearings. They called him an Uncle Tom and insulted him in ways great and small. They accused him of being a sexual predator.
The Left is like Islam; it will not backtrack. They are patient and will wait years, even decades, to exact their revenge. Thomas slipped past them despite their best efforts; they will remedy that at some point.
Kavanaugh will face this too.
Progressivism is a religion, not a political philosophy.

I think so too Dana, but it won't stop them from trying.
BTW I made this point about liberalism being like Islam on Facebook. While I didn't receive a ban something changed and I now can't get into my own comments. It prevents me from responding to people. Right after saying this. Coincidence? I already couldn't get into my notifications on both of my Facebook accounts but found a workaround, which stopped working on one of the accounts. Now I can't see any comments.
They clearly are shadow-banning me.

The Return of Polio
This courtesy of Steven Schueler
@DrJBhattachary
a
Not a headline I thought I'd ever see in my lifetime. Lockdowns, vax
mandates & public health tomfoolery have _predictably_ led to many
people not trusting all vaccines, including those that are essential
for private and public health like the polio vax.
Polio virus found in another New York county, officials say
New York health officials say they have detected the polio virus in
wastewater samples in another county, just days after the virus was
found in Rockland County.
**************
Mistrusting the WuFlu vax should NOT mean mistrust in ALL vaccines. They are NOT all the same.
Tim adds:
I don't think it's being caused by mistrust of vaccines so much as the huge number of unvetted aliens who have come into the U.S. in recent years, most from Third World countries that still have Polio. "Wild Polio" is Polio that is caught from the environment, and it can survive for quite some time in the ground, I am given to understand. The vaccination broke the chain of infection here, but it can easily be restarted. Until it is completely gone worldwide it will remain a threat. While I don't think the fear of vaccinations is the culprit in this, It will be an issue in the future if people stop getting vaccinated for it.
We had our first case in decades this June.

Whose Supremacism?
This from Willis Eschenbach:
@WEschenbach
Seeing Democrats (the party behind the Civil War, the KKK, Jim Crow,
segregation, and the filibuster of the Civil RIghtsAct) trying to
gaslight the US public into believing that the Republicans are the
"white supremacists" is so utterly disappointing on a number of levels.
w.
Justin Bielinski
@JustinBielinsk
i
Seeing Milwaukee's mayor, a Black man, smiling in front of the RNC logo
to announce that a white supremacist convention is coming to town is so
utterly disappointing on a number of levels.
Tim adds:
"White Suprmeacism" is just laughable! White people have never asserted their superior numbers, not for decades. In fact, they have voluntarily surrendered their power to creeps like this Justin. That he would use that slur is evidence he is both monumentally ignroant and dishonest. I ask; who made the Civil Rights Act pass? Who promoted all of the civil rights legislation over the years? Black people did not force this on an unwiling white America. It was white Americans who promoted all of this. And who takes the Klan seriously these days? Nobody. But if you oppose the Left you are automatically a White Supremacist. Take the Proud Boys; their founder was a black Cuban guy. But they are called White Supremacists because they don't kowtow tot he Left. Ditto Oath Keepers, which is just a bunch of Christian men trying to keep their vows to their family, their country and to God. What we have now, if anything, is Black Supremacism. Minorities are given preferences in jobs, are supported by taxpayer dollars on many occasions, given preferences in college acceptance, in promotions, in government service. Does anybody think Kamala Harris would be where she is if she wasn't a black woman? Isn't that supremacism? Or what of Biden's 5 watt bulb spokeswoman? She would make a bad spokesperson for a free theater company. But she is there because she is black. That my friends is supremacism.Minorities are exempted from legal charges in many instances - especially in districts with black prosecutors. They are given preference in almost all avenues of life. If you are a dilligent, reasonably well educated black person you will do very well in America. Look at Barack Obama; easily the least qualified man to become President in history but white America wanted to prove to the black community we have moved past race. Fat lot of good it did anyone.

California Surplus
Timothy Birdnow
When looking over the comments this morning (I have a ton of spam comments, but I try to check out those that look legitimate just in case) I came across
this post from last November where they were predicting a budget surplus in California.
Since that was ten months ago I thought I should compare it with the current situation.
Well, they are now claiming California
has a huge surplus. A hundred BILLION dollar surplus, to be exact.
I seriously doubt that. California spends like Popeye and Bluto in port (when not chasing Olive Oyl) and so how can this be?
First, it means California is screwing it's citizens. They are overtaxing, and instead of rebating this money to it's rightful owners they intend to go on a spending spree, blowing through the tax money. By all rights this should go back to the people who earned it.
It is also alittle game they are playing, as it does not take into account money the state owes, as far as I can tell.
To give credit where due, Newsome did sign a bill
sending some of it back. But as a true liberal Democrat he calls it "inflation relief" and acts as if he's doing California a favor.
Maybe Bill can weigh in here?
One final suggestion; since California believes in from each according to his ability to each according to his need perhaps they should send the surplus to other states less fortunate? Why not send some to West Virginia, where their Senator is pushing the Broke Back Bitter bill that will promote "renewable energy" over W. Virginian coal. Those miners will all be out of work soon. California could help them with a gift of their surplus budget.
I mean, it's like totally fair dude!

The question I have is this a case of monkey see monkey do? Desantis is sending out $450 dollar checks to Floridians in the most need and both his and the new old sames came out at about the same time.

Well, that could well be Mike. Nuisance doesn't want to be one-upped by DeSantis.
I am still unclear how California got all this money in the first place.

Yeah; how do you have a budget surplus while losing taxpayers?
Something is rotten in the state of Dimmark.

It's clear that Dana and Timothy do not pay California property taxes. Or realize that tiny houses in California sell for $2 million or more, and property tax is paid on assessed value. When you exit the state you leave your house behind, and someone is still paying taxes on it, even if it's the bank that foreclosed on it.

Lockdowns Save NO Lives
Selwyn Duke
https://www.selwynduke.com/2022/08/the-covid-lockdowns-a-crime-against-humanity.html
"Study: Lockdowns Save NO Lives. Are Politicians Destroying the Economy for NOTHING?” So wrote The New American (TNA) on April 23, 2020 — in the "pandemic’s” early days. It was one of many examples of TNA and other individuals and entities warning over and over again, early on, that the Covid lockdowns were ineffective at halting disease spread and actually deadly.

I knew neither masking nor lockdowns would work. How do you stop a virus from moving through a community? People still had to work, had to shop, had to go out in the world. And masks? The weave was far too big to stop a virus.
It was clear this was intended originally to make it look like the government was doing something. And it immediately became clear to the Demo-left that it could be used for great things.

When I go to my eye doctor -- every three months -- the tech who does my tests has to wipe down the chair I've sat in, and wipe off any machinery I've touched. What I hate is taking the field-of-vision test with a mask on.
And my chiropractor has two "studios," and once a patient has used one it has to be wiped down, to some extent at least.

I feel sorry for my eye doctor's techs, and all my doctors and my chiropractor, who are obliged to "mask up" at work. I've never seen my chiropractor's face, and she remarked about not having ever seen patients' faces. Dare we hope to ever get back to normality?
Posted by: Dana Mathewson at August 07, 2022 09:04 PM (FSK6u)

I don't think we ever will Dana. I think they are going to continue the masking stupidity in perpetuity.
At least among medical people.
I have to take my dad to the doctor tomorrow. I received a confirmation call saying to take one of their masks before entering the building; they won't allow a cloth mask! Here the pandemic is over and they are getting MORE strict about masking, not less so.

More Climate Debate
Timothy Birdnow
In a post on Facebook about the shortening of the day, Meteorologist James Covington and a polite liberal climate alarmist (well, as polite as they are capable of being) named Mike Reynolds got into a disagreement.
James says:
They don't know why, but they're sure it must be "climate change". lol
Mike replies:
It mentions Chandler Wobble 3 times which is one of the top contending
hypotheses. And it's intuitive that the amount of weight on the top of
a spinning top would affect its wobble, i.e. glaciers.
But
there are many other theories and scientists don't declare certainty
until they have enough data on a correlation to reach a one in 3
million chance of it being a statistical fluke.
James responds:
I am one of those scientists. Meteorologist who's been studying natural climate cycles for decades. 🙂
Last 3 years both poles have slowly gained ice. A majority of high
elevation glaciers are now thickening, as well.... those that aren't
are largely due to changes in prevailing winds. Sea level is changing
by a couple millimeters per year and leveling off. I don't claim to
know exactly what's going on.... but I'm about 99% sure it has nothing
to do with miniscule changes in the ambient air temperatures. 🙂
If I had to formulate a cogent hypothesis, I'd say deep quakes in the
southwest Pacific region, and corresponding rebound, are slowly
changing the shape of the lithosphere.
Mike retorts:
The average sea level rise over the 20th century was 1.4 mm/year. [1] The average rate has been 2.62 ± 0.69 mm/year during 1993–2008, 4.10 ± 0.41 mm/year during 2006–2021 [2], and 5 mm/year during 2014-2019. [3]
1. jpl.nasa.gov/edu/teach/activity/the-science-of-earths-rising-seas/
2. climate.copernicus.eu/climate-indicators/sea-level
3. sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0964569121001587
Do you have a reference for a glacial mass increase over the past 3 years? I cannot find anything about it.
James rebuts:
By the same sources you mean the same satellites? So NASA and JPL who operate the satellites are co-conspirators
with the UN who have cooked the books and you can't trust satellite data?
Your refer is 14 years out of date.
The three links are all funded by the same agencies and
the data is all from the same sources.... I would note that it's stated
in the IPCC's charter to look for human causes, they ignore natural
cycles. Here's a screenshot from a published (independant) paper. The
natural cycle is rather obvious in the bottom graph. In the top, you
see the upward trend started a LONG time ago.
Overall glacial
mass may be pretty close to net zero, I'm simply saying gains in a
number of areas counter losses in others. Media only shows the losses.
As for the Arctic, I have maps from ship reports going back to 1899,
there is nothing unusual going on up there... except that neither
passage is open yet this summer.
Mike retorts:
James J. Covington By the same sources you mean the same satellites? So NASA and JPL who operate the satellites are co-conspirators with the UN who have cooked the books and you can't trust satellite data?
Your refer is 14 years out of date.
It would also have to be a conspiracy of global tidal gauges around the world which confirm the satellite data.
https://sealevel.nasa.gov/faq/21/which-are-more-accurate-in-measuring-sea-level-rise-tide-gauges-or-satellites/
Tim adds:
A fine discussion Mike Reynolds and James J. Covington!
I tend not to trust NASA and NOAA data as both are government agencies dependent on alarmism to obtain funding. And governments love climate change theory because it allows them to tax more, regulate more, and wield power. Also, both agencies have been caught tampering with historical data to make the current warming trend seem larger.https://www.climatesciencenews.com/2020-07-12-nasa-giss-alters-us-southeast-data.html
Mike, I agree with James here; you are relying on the same fundamental source ultimately.
And how was sea level rise determined? The sea doesn't rise the same in the same place everywhere. It's an average, and one must ask how it is taken? Grace satellite data? Tide gauges? Tide gauges are often obsolete when changes to the tidal pool occur from other human activity.Judith Curry argues that the sea level rise does not comport with carbon dioxide nor with warming trends. https://judithcurry.com/2017/08/14/the-blame-game/
BTW, did it occur to anyone that this increase in the rate of Earth's rotation could also tie in with the claimed increase in the rate of sea level rise? (I still have my doubts on whether the rate actually increased or this is an artifact of NASA data collection techniques.)
Here is a list of papers that dispute the claims of increased sea level rise. https://notrickszone.com/?s=tide+gauges
At any rate, most studies show sea levels were much higher in the past few thousand years than now. See Hammond et al (2021) titled: "GPS Imaging of Global Vertical Land Motion for Studies of Sea Level Rise"
Mike, this report of a NASA study from five years ago concluded Antarctica had gained ice mass. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/nasa-study-mass-gains-of-antarctic-ice-sheet-greater-than-losses/
Naturally we won't have one from under three years as these kinds of studies require a lot of effort and time. And sea ice is up slightly as of this year. https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/understanding-climate-antarctic-sea-ice-extent
I would also add that Tony Heller says Arctic Ice has reached an 18 year high back in January. https://iowaclimate.org/2022/01/05/climate-history-researcher-arctic-ice-sees-18-year-high-for-january-3rdalso-more-ice-than-100-years-ago/
Ice is definitely growing in places where it is supposed to be dissipating.
Mike since you put satellite data in such high regard then would you agree with the UAH data - gleened from satellites - that shows very little planetary warming, or would you continue to hold with the surface station data promoted by NASA https://www.climatedepot.com/2016/01/12/satellites-no-global-warming-at-all-for-18-years-8-months/ I would also ask what metric was used to measure ice? Icesat used lasers to actually measure the ice (and found ice gains) while GRACE tried to measure gravitational anomalies. (and found ice loss). Both satellite programs are over, I might add. GRACE was decomissioned in 2017, and Icesat in 2010. Satellite data often depends on how it is gathered and how it is interpreted.
Tidal gauges are of limited value Mike. Often they are situated in areas disturbed by human activity, such as tidal pools near rivers which have been altered by things like levees, which increase the amount of water draining into the pool.Flood controls have a detrimenal effect on many of the areas where tidal gauges are employed. I would take that data with a grain of salt. Especially since it comes from NASA, whose funding is prediated on promoting the theory.
Oh Mike, Icesat II, which is in operation now, confirms ice gains in East Antarctica as of this year. Enough to balance out losses in WAIS and the Antarctic Peninsula. Ihttps://www.cambridge.org/core/blog/2021/04/14/nasa-study-excess-of-mass-gains-of-the-antarctic-ice-sheet-over-mass-losses-during-1992-to-2008-eliminated-by-increasing-dynamic-losses-to-2016/
"However, the new study shows that beginning in 2009, the dynamic losses from the outlet glaciers in the WA1 part of WA strongly increased by 119 Gt a-1 (from 95 to 214 Gt a-1), which was further enhanced by an accumulation mass decrease of 39 Gt a-1 in the inland WA2 part of WA. Nevertheless, that total decrease of 158 Gt a-1 was not enough to bring the whole ice sheet into balance (input equals output), because there was a concurrent accumulation mass increase of 107 Gt a-1 in EA for three years (2009-11)."

Interestingly, none of the "possibilities” mention the Moon. That big old night time thing that everyone loves to sing about and whose day has bee so altered by tidal forces of the Earth that it always presents one face to the Earth.
Has no one ever thought that it might be doing, on a smaller scale, the same thing to Earth that Earth did to it? Yes, actually, many scientists have. It’s well known that the Moon’s tidal forces are slowing Earth’s rotation such that at some point in the future Earth will present one face toward the Moon. The reasons for that are very well known.
Why Earth’s rotation is momentarily speeding up is confusing, until you admit that tidal forces are erratic because Earth is not a homogenous billiard ball. It is lumpy and its mass is not distributed evenly. It’s also affected by tidal forces from the Sun and from coronal
mass ejections. Note "mass” interacting with Earth’s magnetic field.
Today’s scientists were taught Critical Race Theory instead of geology and mathematics.

Time to Panic!
Timothy Birdnow
There is no science showing it's time to panic over climate change. That proves we need to panic.

More Climate Stuff
Dana Mathewson
Here's an interesting article, though I'm not sure I agree with the conclusion.
The violent eruption of Tonga's Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano on Jan. 15, 2022, injected an unprecedented amount of water directly into the stratosphere - enough to fill more than 58,000 Olympic-size swimming pools.
"We’ve never seen anything like it," said Luis Millán, an atmospheric scientist who works at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
When the volcano erupted, seawater came into direct contact with erupting lava and was superheated, creating "explosive steam."
NASA scientists say that the vapor will stay for years, likely affecting the Earth's global average temperature. Normally the vapor takes around 2-3 years to dissipate, but the water from the Jan. 15 eruption could take 5-10 years to evaporate.
Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai "may be the first volcanic eruption observed to impact climate not through surface cooling caused by volcanic sulfate aerosols, but rather through surface warming,"Millán hypothesized in a paper.
Really?
Millán led a study examining the amount of water vapor that the volcano injected into the stratosphere, the layer of the atmosphere between about 8 and 33 miles (12 and 53 kilometers) above Earth’s surface.
Millánand his colleagues' found that the Tonga volcano sent around 146 teragram (1 teragram equals a trillion grams) of water vapor into the Earth's stratosphere. The amount of water launched in the stratosphere is equal to 10% of the water already present in the atmospheric layer. Their research was published in Geophysical Research Letters.

Years ago Roger Pielke Sr. had his own website and I would often visit there. He wasn't one of the popular ones so it was easy to have conversations with him directly. While he was considered a "denier" he was still open to new research.
I remember his discussion on fossil water. That is, water pumped from deep aquifers. Some of that has been underground for millions of years and bringing it to the surface could, he calculated, lead to some planetary warming. He crunched the numbers and showed it was feasible.
This makes me think about that.
But I don't agree with the premise here. This water would likely have been in the atmosphere anyway at some point. And this completely disregards the actions of clouds, which become more prolific with more water vapor.
This line is an example of the author not understanding the science - or making poor choices of words:
"but the water from the Jan. 15 eruption could take 5-10 years to evaporate."
It's already evaporated. He means drop back out of the atmosphere. Condensation.
Oh, one more thing; the Earth's stratosphere averages -60 f. at the tropopause (where it meets the troposphere, or lower level.) I would think that would dissipate the water vapor rather quickly at such temperatures. The time frame given here seems a bit long to me.

Seems to me that at such a high altitude water would turn to ice crystals, forming ice clouds, which reflect sunlight. They do not retain heat.
Posted by: Bill H at August 05, 2022 09:03 AM (Q7br2)
4
I'm not a scientist, but it seems to me that if a volcano ejected a lot of water vapor into the sky, it would lead to cooling, just like how Mt. Pinatubo's eruption cooled us off for a bit. You put something up there that blocks sunlight, you're gonna cool things off.
Posted by: Dana Mathewson at August 05, 2022 09:15 PM (z7Oco)

It kind of addressed that, Dana, but not in any way that sounded plausible.
First, it said that a "normal” volcano’s debris dissipated in 3-5 years, while this one ejected such a large amount, and so much of it was specifically water, that it would stay in the atmosphere for more than 5 years. They did not explain how that would cause warming rather than cooling.
Second was that this one sent the debris higher. Again, no explanation of why that would cause warming rather than cooling.
Posted by: Bill H at August 05, 2022 11:57 PM (Q7br2)

Bingo Bill! You have hit the nail on the head. It's too freaking cold up there. This water would indeed form into high clouds.
I agree Dana. Water clouds can cause cooling and often do. NASA research shows that particulate matter in the stratosphere cools the planet. https://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/stratospheric-aerosols.html There is no reason to think clouds up there will warm it.
Low lying clouds in the troposphere will help hold in heat, like a blanket. But clouds in the stratosphere block sunlight and cool the planet. The author of this piece clearly didn't understand that fact.
He was probably getting his information from someone else, who either didn't know that himself or who had an agenda.
This is just lazy journalism.

Spain to Control Thermostats
This from Tara Taylor
Coming soon to the USA 🇺🇸 under the Democrats Build Back Better, aka The Inflation Reduction Act:
New AC/Heat ESG Regulations in Spain just announced. Your AC must be set at 80, your Heat must don’t go above 66.
Tim adds:
That's always been the goal of these people - conservation. I remember
Jimmy Carter walking around in a sweater with his heat at 68 back in
the '70's, and they never gave up on this dream of making everyone put
"skin in the game" and to control everyone's thermostats. Control
energy and you control people. They understaned that. So it is
definitely coming.

Well, Dana, here it would still be a great benefit. Eighty beats the tar out of a hundred, and of course it will still take humidity out of the air.
But it isn't their decision, and I see your point.

You do make a good point, Timothy. Refrigeration air conditioning was invented for the specific purpose of dehumidifying air. It's cooling effect was a case of,

DeSantis Suspends Woke Prosecutor
Timothy Birdnow
Ron DeSantis has
suspended a rogue prosecutor who is refusing to enforce Florida's abortion law.
Good for him!
This shows that it can be done if the politicians ostensibly on our side will simply grow a pair and take a stand. Few do.
Here in St. Louis we have a rogue prosecutor named Kim Gardner. Our governor, the honorable Mike Parsons, could easily suspend her but he won't because he's afraid of trouble in the black communities Gardner represents.
We need more men of courage and fewer Mike Parsons.

One would think so Dana. It is there that our dear brave Governor has his head in his hindquarters.
Yes, Gardner won with 60% of the vote, but that doesn't mean all that much in those tough communities on the north side. It means her machine was able to get a bunch of people out to the polls - nothing more. Oh, and probably stuff the ballot boxes.

Reserves Needed

This whole
unnecessary energy transition is going to triple our electric bills.
And the weather will be the same. Wasteful and expensive.
Truth in Energy
Wind
and solar are expensive and need lots of back up. For those cold, dark
windless nights. Peak demand is from 5-9pm when people come home from
work and school. And when the sun is setting and the wind often takes a

Great Barrier Reef Just Fine
Scott Snell
Two years ago, widespread bleaching across the Great Barrier Reef caused numerous excitable types to declare that the unique natural wonder had died. This pronouncement occurred despite the protestations of reef experts that bleaching is normal. The tourist industry, which knew full well that most of the reef remained in good shape, was also pretty peeved. But nothing generates headlines like tragedy, so dissenting views were all but ignored.
No informed person was surprised to learn that news of the GBR's death had been greatly exaggerated, as the attached report shows.
https://www.aims.gov.au/sites/default/files/2022-08/AIMS_LTMP_Report_on%20GBR_coral_status_2021_2022_040822F3.pdf
This is yet another example of so-called experts taking a little bit of data about a phenomenon, recorded over a short time frame, and then projecting out to infinity to reach the worst possible conclusion. Sometimes they mean well, but sometimes declaring a crisis is a cynical ploy to secure funding to study the alleged problem.
It is axiomatic that the many systems of the natural world are cyclical; up for a while, down for a while, always in flux. Examples of this are literally everywhere.
The GBR has been around for at least half a million years. It has survived warm periods and cold periods, thousands and thousands of hurricanes, and frequent large changes in sea level, including a 400-plus foot sea level rise at the beginning of the current interglacial period. For anyone familiar with earth history, the idea that this enormous, supremely resilient thing could be killed by a slight increase in temperature seems laughable.
Then again, I don't have a three-letter honorific after my name. So what the hell do I know?

Cherokee Lizzie and the Left's War Aims Over Abortion
Selwyn Duke
https://www.selwynduke.com/2022/08/abortion-extremism-liz-warren-signals-the-lefts-total-war-aims.html
There was a time, not really all that long ago, when leftists still claimed they wanted abortion "safe, legal — and rare.” Now they’re raring to go and destroy unborn human life and, in particular, those who help it enter and flourish in this world.
A prime example is Senator Elizabeth Warren’s fevered attack on crisis pregnancy centers....

It's always been about giving out the power of life and death. Helping people never entered into it. This is nothing but an attempt to find equality with God by having the power to give or take life.

Who are the Radicals?
Jerry S. Rainforth
"These parents have become radicalized" says the NY TIMES writer. While it is exactly the opposite.
Excerpt from Brownstone Institute:
Nearly half of Americans oppose masking and a similar share is against vaccine mandates for schoolchildren,
polls show. But what is obscured in those numbers is the intensity with
which some parents have embraced these views. While they once described
themselves as Republicans or Democrats, they now identify as
independents who plan to vote based solely on vaccine policies.
But worse yet, in their baffling zeal to prevent the state from using
an indefinite state of emergency to terrify, harm, and indoctrinate
their children, these parents have become radicalized, creating a
fanatical and unpredictable new political movement that threatens the
Democratic Party’s sacred cows and, even worse, the job security of its
cadres:

Dana, I couldn't actually get the Brownstone article to open so I'm making guesses here. The Brownstone Institute is advertised as a Libertarian group with economic beliefs from the Austrian School. That would put the comment in a new light; I think they were trying to say this is what the New York Times was saying. I may be wrong though as I couldn't actually open the Brownstone article.

Racing to the Bottom
Selwyn Duke
https://www.selwynduke.com/2022/08/some-republicans-driven-by-politics-on-marriage-gay-now-say-yea.html
Approximately 20 years ago, then-prominent commentator Bill O’Reilly remarked on his erstwhile Fox News show that Americans would "never” accept faux (same-sex) marriage. As recently as 13 years ago, all 32 states that had voted on the matter rejected government faux marriage recognition. A year later, in 2010, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton still pretended to believe that marriage was between "a man and a woman.” They later "evolved,” as politicians like to put it, and now the public has largely followed suit, with a May Gallup poll showing that 71 percent of Americans and 55 percent of Republicans believe these unions should be governmentally recognized. There’s a word for this: inurement.

There's always Canadian beer, eh. I guess we can drink Moosehead or Molson or Labatts.

He promises me a case of Stella Artois. I am at minimum ambivalent. I can't really drink beer much anymore, and never much cared for Stella anyway.

You were in a Canadian restaurant? I didn't know they had them; figured they just at flapjacks all the time.
He's right; Canadian beer lacks finish. But I suppose that's the point; it is "clean" as the Busch family would claim. Some like that - people who don't really like beer.
BTW I was heartbroken when A-B bought Becks. I haven't had it in a while but suspect it probably has that watery "clean" taste now. I want a beer to taste like a beer.
Speaking of A-B and how it ruined American beer, St. Louis is lousy with breweries now, but I don't really love any of them. They are big on wheat beers and other light "drinkable" beers, a hangover from the dominance of the Busch line. It's funny; my friend Dave (a huge beer afficianado) and I go over to the east side - the suburbs in Illinois - and there the brewpubs are much better. Why? Because A-B never got it's hooks into the area. They had their own brewery - the Stag Brewing Company. Stag is absolutely horrible, but it isn't watery or "drinkable". The folks over there developed a taste for more flavorful beer. Now the best breweries in the area are over in Illinois.
Dave has had beer all over the country. He plans trips based on breweries. He travels for work and always routs himself so he can visit breweries. He says the best he's been to are the ones in Illinois just across the river. The Stubborn German in Waterloo, Illinois, is the best brewery he's been to, he says.
At any rate Canadian beer is pleasant but hardly something you would seek out. Much like Canada itself.
