Bill Clinton blew his stack on Fox News Sunday and he's still in the news.  The boss of Chris Wallace, Roger Ailes, is pleased.

"I would have paid him 100 grand to help us with
marketing, just to get a half-hour of his time," Ailes said by phone
Thursday. "As it turned out, I got a half-hour of his time and he did
it for nothing. We're very grateful. … He's kept us in the news for
six days."

Wallace's "nice little conservative hit job" questions lead to stressful answers.  Clinton invaded Wallace's personal space in a manner that he insists is legal.  Had he been as aggressive with bin Laden, well… Here is a transcript of the exchange.  You decide.

I have broad concerns beyond politics.  Like the health of fashion models.  They are way too skinny.

Sadistic designers like the way their clothes hang.

The The Madrid Fashion Show is finally doing something about the epidemic.  All models must have a height to weight ratio of at least 18. Sounds scientific.

Some models are concerned that cleaning their plates will harm their careers. It won't as long as they eat their spinach.

Noam Chomsky could give the Clown Prince of Venezuela a real scare by handing him an autographed copy of his book.  Chavez regrets not meeting his favorite author while he was still living.

E coli in spinach.  Popeye.  Get it?

Food Ayatollahs like the Center for Science in the Public Interest have long waged jihad on everything you like.   Activist Cash.com offers a glimpse at their battle plan:

• extra taxes on foods with fat, sugar, and sodium (the so-called “Twinkie tax”);
• government-mandated “warning” labels on high-fat, high-calorie menu items;
• mandatory
  nutrition information on restaurant menus, menu-boards, meat packages,
  hamburger wrappers, food commercials, ice cream stores, movie theatres,
  bakeries, hot dog stands, etc., etc.
• requirements that broadcasters give free “equal time” to government-supported advertisements of “healthy” foods;
• restrictions on baby food packaging requiring that tapioca be labeled as “chemically modified food starch”;
• labels warning parents that soft drinks may be replacing low-fat milk, fruit juice, and other drinks in their children’s diets;
• labels warning of contamination from fresh, unpasteurized juices;
• a government-sponsored “Must-Not-See-TV Week” campaign; and
• stricter regulations on genetically enhanced foods, which are already the most regulated food products in the U.S.

Organically raised spinach might be the one thing they'd want you to eat.

The pope gave an academic lecture on faith and reason. He said that God cannot act against reason. He wants science to broaden its definition of reason to include faith. His complaint was that Europe has abandoned faith. 

You can read the actual text here.  The pope quotes John's Gospel finding  God in logos. The Greek  word logos means both  reason and word.  He says," John thus spoke the final word on the biblical concept of God."

Christopher Hitchens calls this a premeditated insult to Muslims because they claim Muhammad gets the last word on God. Hitchens, a non-believer, finds both claims absurd:

"…and where Muslims believe that Mohammed went into a trance and took
dictation from an archangel, Ratzinger (Hitchens insists on using his pre-pope name) accepts as true the equally
preposterous legend that St. Paul was commanded to evangelize for
Christ during the course of a vision experienced in a dream."

Hitchens thinks Benedict gave Islamic radicals more fuel for jihad. Though he slams the church for doing the same throughout history, Hitchens probably would agree with the pope's point that spreading faith by violence is unreasonable. 

Radical Muslims took issue with this point and commenced to burning churches.

The Pope apologized for his reasonableness.  He was not forced to convert.  Yet.

Good thing they didn't see any Muhammad doodles.

Neanderthal remnants from a cave on the southern coast of Spain are believed to be 24-28,000 years old.  That places the cavemen 2,000 years or so closer to us than previously believed.

The Los Angeles Times says Neanderthals,

"…appeared more than 200,000 years ago. They died out after anatomically
modern humans arrived in Europe 35,000 to 40,000 years ago."

It is believed the anatomically correct humans introduced global warming so as to wipe out the  Neanderthals and go shopping at Wall-Mart.
