Not To Be Confused With The "Sweet Science"

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg with a nice line:

"Today, we are seeing hundreds of years of scientific discovery being challenged by people who simply disregard facts that don't happen to agree with their agenda," Mr. Bloomberg said. "Some call it pseudoscience, others call it faith-based science, but when you notice where this negligence tends to take place, you might as well call it 'political science.'"

Hope springs eternal; in this case, the GOP mayor of the greatest city in the world representing his party as having no place to go but up.

I find it bemusing that when schisms appear in the Jackass Party, they are "healthy debate," but schisms in the GOP are a sign of some sort of cancer. Right now, the Jackasses are embroiled in a similar exercise, pitting the "true believers" against the DLC. A secular version, if you will. Maybe we should get corporate, and merge the DLC with the social liberal wing of the GOP. I might just sign up.
