Welcome to your Friday open thread. Soooo, snow. That means it’s time again for Delaware drivers to lose their collective minds. At least it’s Friday. Some of us are looking forward to the weekend.
F*ckin’ tides, how do they work?
O’REILLY: I’ll tell you why [religion’s] not a scam, in my opinion: tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can’t explain that.
SILVERMAN: Tide goes in, tide goes out?
O’REILLY: See, the water, the tide comes in and it goes out, Mr. Silverman. It always comes in, and always goes out. You can’t explain that.
Science education must really be at a low point if we can’t even understand the tides anymore. (Hint: it’s the moon’s gravity.)
Constitution! Constitution! Republicans have their priorities, you know.
Two House Republicans have cast votes as members of the 112th Congress, but were not sworn in on Wednesday, a violation of the Constitution on the same day that the GOP had the document read from the podium.
The Republicans, incumbent Pete Sessions of Texas and freshman Mike Fitzpatrick, missed the swearing in because they were at a fundraiser in the Capitol Visitors Center. The pair watched the swearing-in on television from the Capitol Visitors Center with their hands raised.
Wow, it took like hours for Republicans to mess up. Who’d a thunk it?
