The busy Wednesday briefs

Isn’t this that mixing of Church and State that liberals hate so much? Seriously? The Obama administration is creating a tax on Christmas trees to fund a new department that will–determine how to better market Christmas trees. Because, you know, it’s not like you can get a Christmas tree anywhere. Oh. Wait. Yes, that Obama–the man who actually said there is less regulation under his administration than any other recent presidency.

All together now: Awwwwww. The Palestinians are giving up on getting their state by fiat through the UN Security Council. So now, will they come back to the negotiating table? Oh, please. Like that’s gonna happen anytime soon. There have been zero penalties for not negotiating, so why would they?

It’s official: The IEAE says Iran is working for nukes. Gee. I’m shocked, shocked to discover that it’s true. (Say, wasn’t Juan Cole insisting that Israel was making shit up so they could bomb Iran or something?) Of course Iran is doubling down, because its sponsors, China and Russia, are protecting it.

Check his foreign bank accounts: Israel is calling Mohammed el Baradei, the man who did the most to cover up the Iranian quest for nuclear weapons, an Iranian agent. I’m not disagreeing with that.

And because I have a category for Turkey on my Google News page: Well, here’s a story on turkeys. In Staten Island. Grouchy ones. Yep, it’s that time of year, when turkey stories outweight the turkeys in Turkey.

    Liberals have no trouble with injecting religion into politics, Meryl. They’re fine with it as long as it’s religious views they like. Thus, for example, there is the Religious Coalition for Abortion Rights, that radical Catholic priest…name escapes me at the moment…with whom Obama was chummy, and if Catholic bishops issue a statement on nuclear disarmament or something, liberals are fine with that.

    It’s religious views they don’t like that breach the wall of separation and are the first step towards theocracy.
