I consistently come away in awe of how eloquently you write, and how you make choosing exactly the right word seem so effortless. You also seem to find subject matter in a wide variety of places, and you link contemporary and long-past events in unexpected ways.

I found your blog about a month ago via your comments on Pharyngula and have fallen completely in love with your writing. Every entry is a pleasure to read.

Love your blog by the way. It's very measured, and you always have something interesting to say.

There is nothing like political satire to boil down a situation to the essential truth! :)
The only inaccuracy of that cartoon is Obama realizing what's happening in the last panel. :(
