But one big difference in fertility rates remains: Conservative, religiously minded Americans are putting far more of their genes into the future than their liberal, secular counterparts.
(And the meek shall inherit the earth. Conservatives stay home making babies and raising families while all the rest of us are out having fun like blaspheming, childless heathens. Meanwhile all these little conservative tykes are being brainwashing with dogma, and eventually might end up like this! After all, we know that children never fail to live up to the dreams their parents have for them, and conservative kids always grow up to be conservative adults ... or serial killers.

Kerry: "Let me tell you what I think makes someone unfit for duty. Misleading our nation into war in Iraq makes you unfit to lead this nation. Doing nothing while this nation loses millions of jobs makes you unfit to lead this nation. Letting 45 million Americans go without health care makes you unfit to lead this nation. Letting the Saudi royal family control our energy costs makes you unfit to lead this nation. Handing out billions [in] government contracts without a bid to Halliburton while you're still on their payroll makes you unfit."
(Solid. Can you feel it... the race is really starting to heat up. (Registration required, or try bugmenot.) (b/w Ghost in the Machine))

It's not enough to tar the opponent with accusations and innuendos. It's also necessary to tout Rove's candidate as a guy just this side of the angels. And so, the Bush campaign is combining out-of-sight stilettos and out-front verbal attacks with elaborate poses of ultimate goodness.
(Today must be "AlterNet Day" on [cIb]. Yeah, the current administration's propaganda machine is impressive in its effectiveness and its amorality. But if we have enough people in this country that can get duped by this garbage, if we have enough people who will let inconsequential news blurbs -- such as Swift Boat -- and petty issues that mean nothing sway their vote, then, perhaps we get the government we deserve, and I'm living in a land of zombies and stepford people. )

Molly Ivins, on Schwarzeneggar, copping a line from another journalist: "He looks like a condom stuffed with walnuts."
(Ms. Ivins has a lot of other funny, insightful things to say in this must-read about how separated from reality the Republicans seem to be, if the just-completed RNC really is their pace-setting event. I'd like to say that the RNC was a dull, boring snoozefest, but I can't since I didn't watch a second of it. Did I miss anything? )
