James Dobson:
Should John McCain capture the nomination as many assume, I believe this general election will offer the worst choices for president in my lifetime. I certainly can’t vote for Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama based on their virulently anti-family policy positions. If these are the nominees in November, I simply will not cast a ballot for president [From The Campaign Spot on National Review Online]
Reaction #1: Yay! Do us all a favor and stay home.
Reaction #2: “Worst choices for president in my lifetime”? This from a Bush kingmaker. Just shows how completely backwards he is.
Also, as an aside, I find it funny that one of his strikes against John McCain is “has a legendary temper and often uses foul and obscene language.”
I guess he has no problem overlooking these same faults in GWB & Cheney.

One of the steps in that part of the operation involves removing the pigs’ brains with compressed air forced into the skull through the hole where the spinal cord enters. The brains are then packed and sent to markets in Korea and China as food. Investigators say there is no reason to suspect that either the brains or the pork cuts were contaminated. Their working hypothesis is that the harvesting technique — known as “blowing brains” on the floor — produces aerosols of brain matter. Once inhaled, the material prompts the immune system to produce antibodies that attack the pig brain compounds, but apparently also attack the body’s own nerve tissue because it is so similar.
