Very true, but there is one nugget among the dross: one poster asked why the Republicans aren’t going to mikes to point out the leftism of this guy and FORCING the leftists to rise to his defense (or be seen to be cowards for remaining silent).
Good point. Repubes never strike while the iron is hot.
I figure that since Joe Wilson (R-SC) is already tagged as a bombthrower, they really ought to use him in that capacity. Granted he might use up his 15 minutes of fame, but then there’d be somebody having the same effect on the left that Sen Schumer has on the right.
She makes enough mistakes on her own so it just seems almost mean to blame her when she’s innocent. :)
Heaviest Element Yet Known to Science Discovered
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California has now identified with certainty the heaviest element known to science.
The new element, Pelosium (PL), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.
Pelosium is inert, and has no charge and no magnetism. Nevertheless, it can be detected because it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact. A tiny amount of Pelosium can cause a reaction that would normally take less than a second, to take from 4 days to 4 years to complete.
Pelosium has a normal half-life of 2 years. It does not decay, but instead undergoes a biennial reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places.
Pelosium mass will increase over time, since each reorganization will promote many morons to become isodopes.
This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass.
When catalyzed with money, Pelosium becomes Senatorium, an element that radiates just as much energy as Pelosium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons.
My bad. I misread the article. I won’t retract my comment though.
I thought that was a funny response when I read it last night. I laughed out loud. It’s true.
