Hopefully, Human Services just earned themselves a huge cut in the soon-to-be-announced budget. And I say this as someone who usually loves big, regulatory government.
Quoted: IRVING TOWNSHIP (AP) — A southwest Michigan woman has been told that she's in danger of being arrested if she continues to watch her neighbors' children each morning before they get on the school bus.
Quoted: State law says no one may care for unrelated children in their home for more than four weeks a year unless they're licensed.

Incredible. The most influential minds in America at work... BTW, the quote directly below is not from some Joe Sixpack asked to comment, it's from Justice Breyer. You know, one of the GOOD justices.
Quoted: "In my experience when I was 8 or 10 or 12 years old, you know, we did take our clothes off once a day, we changed for gym, OK? And in my experience, too, people did sometimes stick things in my underwear."
Quoted: That the school in question was looking for a prescription pill with the mind-altering force of a pair of Advil—and couldn't be bothered to call the child's mother first—hardly matters.

Republican opinion-makers have found a new demon: the US auto industry. Especially demonic are its efforts to build more fuel-efficient cars and Democrats' encouragement of these efforts. Hooray, because Detroit could afford to be taken down a notch or two.
The author (no science in his background) uses the bulk of his space to break down the science behind the Volt. His thesis is that gas goes bad if it stays unused in the tank too long. So stop trying to save gas or your gas will go bad, idiot unionists.
Quoted: You have in GM's Volt a perfect car of the Age of Obama -- or at least the Honeymoon of Obama, before the reality principle kicks in.
Quoted: The public now has no idea what to expect -- except miracles, reconciling all opposites, turning all hard choices into gauzy win-wins. Thanks to Detroit, his honeymoon is about to end before it begins.

Wow. Hopefully she is just a crazy. If the campaign put her up to this, anyone involved should be prosecuted and the campaign should indeed be over.
Quoted: Ashley Todd, the 20-year-old white McCain volunteer who claimed she was attacked in a Pittsburgh parking lot by a large black man yesterday, then further claimed he carved "B" into her cheek because apparently the sight of her McCain paraphernalia set him into an uncontrollable pro–Barack Obama rage, has confessed that she fabricated the entire story, a Pittsburgh news station reports.

Now walking fast is a "symptom of [our] modern life"? Yeah, that's right, the sky is falling. Technology is turning us into animitrons (speedy ones).
We can only hope this "symptom" spreads in the U.S. Yeesh.
Quoted: A study of cities across the world shows pedestrians are upping their pace at an alarming rate as they scurry from place to place, determined to cram as much as possible into each day.
