Welcome to ...

The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.
Windmills Tilted, Scared Cows Butchered, Lies Skewered on the Lance of Reality ... or something to that effect.

Go get'em Al

Senator Al Franken is kicking booty and taking names ...

In a hearing on health care:

One of the highlights of the hearing was when sen. Al Franken (D-Mn) questioned Hudson Institute senior fellow Diana Furchtgott-Roth about medical bankruptcies. Franken asked Furchtgott-Roth — who claimed that moving towards a European-style system of universal health care would increase bankruptcies — about how many medical bankruptcies there were in countries that have universal health care, like Switzerland and France. Furchtgott-Rott repeatedly told franken that she didn’t “have that number,” and Franken informed her that the number was actually zero.
